I looked for about 15 minutes but no luck this time. It was also getting dark so will need to come back in the daylight.
Easy find. Left geocoin.

Out on the geobike to find some caches this side of the lake.

Another nice big cache enhancing the cycle path...perfect day for a ride.
Thanks The Machman

Nice place, nice hide! Thank you! Chipsy09 Switzerland!
I took a TB out, where is startet in Switzerland

Find number 6 of 19 today. Very easily found after we navigated the spiders. Nicely hidden, but easily seen if you know the shape...... TFTC
I visited this GZ (or the previous one) some months ago. Sadly my loathing (read dread) of crawling serpents(even when resplendant in their Richmond FC jerseys) forced me to make a quick retreat to the relative safety of the track. This morning however, the cooler months giving courage, I made a quick easy find. TFTH
Needed a stick to get through the bushes and spiders but found it with the jnr geos. TFTC!
Great hide. A few muggles about so I had to be careful about when I open and shut the cache due to its distinctive sound. TNLN TFTC
sorry took so long to log. Picked this one up while playing the other game.
I totally disowned Mr. SC at this point. See photo by Gum-Nuts! Thanks for the laugh.
Quick find for geokid1 - he didn't seem to want to take the bra contained as a prize though...... not sure why not...... TFTC
Out for a morning on the Geo bikes. What lovely weather for it. Trying to knock of a few of the local caches on our list.
Easy find. Bit confused at the swappable. Not sure someone would want my pants after this ride.

Eventually got to this cache. I ride past at least once a week so it was great to be able to tick it off the list. TFTC. Dropped off TB
Found this one while getting out and about with daughter. Picked up the trackable and will see how planning goes, but may be able to make it travel to the US with me in early October...

A quick find with part of hesomas while the others are at the event. The munzee said it wasn't deployed yet

A great winters day to be out caching. Certainly one we wouldn't have tackled during summer.
Very nice cache on the side of the cycle path.
Found with Basically run!

What a hunt I certainly wouldn't have tackled the reeds and animals if this didn't motivate me!
Too many spiders to do with kids and even my husband was uncomfortable scrambling through so many spiders webs along the trail (we got 2 meters from the way point before turning away due to spiders). This one is certainly for the more adventurous (and maybe less fearful of spiders) than we are

Found this one with ghfb and theoutbackwizard101 whilst Mr. CS was at work. Only tip i would give is to find a big stick to clear a pathway through the spider galore! Mr. CS was lucky to be at work then in one way TFTC
This was a bit of a search but found it in the end, the container appears to have changed from earlier pictures (possibly due to fire damage of original). New picture to be uploaded by me.
Ok, I'm just about done with spiders! Dropped Chirping Chick back to a room with a view. TFTC Found a thong charm thought geoson would like so dropped in some coin.
Our GPS was trying to tell us the cache was in the lake, which obviously wasn't true, but it did make us search a lot deeper in the bush than we needed to. Lots of spiders and the straw-like grass made for an interesting search. Lovely walk, TFTC.
Nice find, good location to go for a drink with the kids after at the local cafe/gardens 700m away.
Nice stroll to find this one. Went a little too far in but didnt sink or get stuck luckily. TFTF.
Added extra plastic bag. Left the tattered bag on the outside (better camouflage).
We hired some bikes and went for a ride around the lake, caching as we could along the way.

Another nice quick find while cycling around the lake. Thanks again Team Layabout. TNLN.
not far from the beaten track but still a mini adventure. Kids loved it and more spider webs.

To be honest this really needs to be fixed on the Geocache website with the correct coords. By that I mean putting them in the system as opposed to just in the description.However, with the iphone and another little GPS app called iGCT we managed to locate the new position some 500m to the north. All in all I guess i learnt how to do something new so it wasnt a total waste.
Easy to find when at the right spot.
Left a Butterfly Ring
Took EvilGeocoin and will move on to new cache very soon.

Didn't know that the coordinates had changed till I got back home and began to log this one, so I guess I was searching the wrong spot for this one.
Did not read the discription properly so did the walk south then back north. Geomum not happy with the extra walk LOL TFTH
Nice find although apprehensive of the snakes........Cheers guys.

Changing the coordinates only in the listing is not acceptable, especially as to how far this has been shifted. It makes the cache something other than a traditional and those without access to logs whilst at the listed GZ will be penalised.
It need to be either changed properly or archived and a new cache listing made.

Went to the old coordinates and wondered why I couldn't find it. Resorted to starting up the phone app and looked at the logs and worked out that it had been shifted. Ruined what had been a good day up to now.
Found after a hike through the bushes, note to other cachers, wear long trousers!
Took Chooken, left mini highlighter and WA flag keyring. TFTC

Went to the old coodinates first....found a fantastic hollow tree for hiding a cache.... But not yours. Reread a log to note the coordinates had moved...all easy after that. Moved on a TB. Thanks. M
DNF it again. I had been searching other caches most of the morning and the weather was starting to heat up. I was looking at my GPS while riding along and ran over a snake on my bike (poor fella). The snake was fine but I decided to leave this cache for another day, maybe hybernation season!
Lovely walk around the path encouraged on by the sounds of ducks. A few friendly spiders helped us on the hunt and the new coordinates were right on. TFTC. L: geocoin and chipmunk T: TB
I make the mistake of looking in the dark. My bike light wasn't up to the task, at least there were no muggles. I will look again in the daylight another time
Should have read the description before I attempted this had to backtrack...TFTH Team Layabout
