THE EAST MAN, THE EAST! Bridport, Tasmania, Australia

One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

I need to check this

spent some time lookig but no luck it may not be there or i am cache blind

Spend some time looking but came up empty. Geocadets had a blast on the beach.

Now we didn't find this one. Like others before us. Next time will bring along a low loader and sifter and if the muggles have not got it then we will find it. Another cache was also lost to our critical observation.

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Again, no dogs aloud!! $250 fine!! WHY?!?!?! Left dad in the car with the geodog Charlie and no cache found after about 15 mins.

Thorough search up to elbows in company with previous finder. No luck.

Great spot TFTC

Nice, my Shelly is really getting the hang of finding things. Shelly & Shane

Great spot for F n C. Stealth required SL took TB. TFTC

Found while on Scout family camp, took another leader and a couple of kids with me who wanted to log this one too.
Took nothing, left travel bug.

Gotcha, wasn't overly difficult. Lovely spot to sit down and have a rest. TFTC

Gotcha !!! TFTC

Day two in Tassie. Had to get the statutory cache in this seaside village. Great little beach, live the boulders.

Tricky

Tftc

While driving down to Smithton we pulled over for a smoke break and what do you know we found that we were right next to a cache so after a short search we soon had it in hand log signed and replaced as we watched the muggles on the 'busy' beach below us.

Some great views of the beach from here i must say.

Thanks for the cache.

Made a quick find, log was full in pieces and a bit damp. So we took cache to geo mobile and replaced the log with a new one.

We have the old one with us and hope to be able to get it to cache owner soon. TFTC

found it but very wet

I found this geocache using the Geocaching Intro App. TFTC!

Found with the kids while going for a walk along the beach nice easy one for the kids to find

Found on a gloomy wet but muggle free day! The log is a mess! It's in several pieces, and is quite damp!

Had a quick look here some months ago and I am sure I checked this spot....there it was today almost in plain view. Had to wait for a procession of joggers, cyclists, walkers and beach people to thin out before I could retrieve, sign and replace.

Down from Brisbane for a few days for a funeral,had time for some caching.With (un)helpful! Assistance from 2 muggles brothers & a muggles cousin we went to look for this cache near the beach we swam at as kids nearly 60 years ago.Hadn't downloaded to my GPS so had to rely on my smart phone& with much smart advice from my companions the cache was soon in hand.TNLN TFTC.All OK in the cache.

A quick find just on sunset. Noone about at this time of the day in midwinter! TFTC

My 8 year olds very first find! He is ecstatic! lol

A quick feed of Fish and Chips and toilet break was needed so we found a nearby cache. In the summer we can only imagine how packed this area would be.

Thanks robtas.

Found while camping here over the Queens Birthday weekend. Forgot to bring a pen with us so had to come back a second time and sign the log. Beautiful little beach. TFTC.

Very wet but able to sign ok Tftc

Quick find TFTC robtas

Close to a quiet beach
TFTC

Out this way for work nice find little bit of a hunt as GPS was jumping

Easy find.

Great easy find

Quick find with Justjessie on day 2 of our Tasmanian caching tour.

Another easy find with O319. justjessie junior enjoyed playing on the beach for awhile afterwards, while we drank our coffee. TFTC

It was very quiet when I came along, so made a quick find. Nice location for a cache. I'd like to camp here.

Great location for us to have morning tea as well as locating the cache! TFTC

A quick find after arriving at the caravan park. TFTC

A tricky one for us beginners but got over the line eventually could use a new log book but great location

Hi robtas
The Oriental really came out in me on this cache.
Didn't look north, south or west; just EAST!!
Found the cache quickly and signed the log at 1324hrs.
Great views from here.
TFTC and cheers
OldSaint.

Nice spot, could do with new log book. TFTC!

It was busy on the beach and in the campsite but fortunately not here. Neat hide. TFTC.

Tftc

We were camped for the night very nearby. Weather was warm & sunny enough for a swim at the lovely little beach and being mid week there were very few people around. Thought Bridport was a very pleasant stop over on our all too brief trip around parts of Tassy. Located the cache in the morning before heading off on our way. Delightful spot.

#162 - 20:30; Found after a short search on sunset, to avoid the crowds. TFTC

Didn't leave a message, no pencil in there and we forgot to bring one. Few people on the beach sun baking but they were oblivious to our hunt. TFTC!

Brother in law found it after ages of looking. Tftc

It took five adults and six kids but we found it.

Even though the muggles were crammed into every available camping spot, we were able to sit at gz, survey the scene and extract the cache without anyone being any the wiser.

Yep, we found it too, within a metre of my iPad GC App.
There was another hole close by, nothing in it, so I put a
used drink can inscribed with "GC CLOSE "

Pleas, if you find the can, that ain't the cache!

#405 Set up camp site nearby, time for a ride northwards, but let's have lunch first. nice spot in the shade overlooking the beach. so, where is the next cache M enquiried? "Checking, guess what? - only 8 metres away!" quick hunt around and there it was out in the open!! - probably a muggle kiddie? The log papers are too damp to write on. We re-inserted into the very nearby probable hide. Onwards north along the trail on the trusty steeds.

Yea founded it Geskus clan with the cadets

Found on a beautiful day with billcamz. Found last year same time but didn't log. Tftc Bridport needs more.

found it safe and well

TFTC

Have to have long arms for this one

Found today whilst touring round the area. Third cache in Tasmania

Still a problem. Impossible to get to cache through fallen tree.

another one not found

We were spot on with the coordinates but a very large tree has fallen where the GZ is and has coveed the entire hide. Imposible to retrieve the cache without a chainsaw or 10 people to lift the tree.

This one defeated us today. We spent quite a while looking for it as there weren't too many muggles around but the GPS was all over the place and only accurate to within about 5 metres. Having now read back over long ago logs it seems that maybe it is a tricky little hide and we maybe didn't look hard enough. However there is a very large, recently fallen branch close to GZ ( recent enough that the leaves are still green) so it may be possible that GZ has been crushed. More likely that we just missed it though so we will keep a watch on this one to see. TFTC [^]

Spied some women going swimming. Too cold for me. Has to be over 35degs. for me to get in. T.F.T.C.

Visiting from Newcastle NSW, TFTC robtas!!

Nice hide took us 10 minutes

Love the beach tftc

Found by Elcato 26/2/12. Cache needs pencil

Very beautiful beach and shallow. Perfect for children! The backpackers in Bridport is good located with a porch overlooking the bay!

Nice find next to yet another great beach in Tassie. Geocoin taken for placment in a warmer climate. Not sure why cache tagged as needing mantainence, all appears in working order.

Quick find on an empty beach.
Took TB left geocoin

In town for the long weekend for fishing and boating fun. Had a great time out on the water and thought this was the place to drop off the TB "Fish with no guts!" Been carrying around till we got a nice fishing spot. Found cache easily. Sad stay at the van park. Some 20 sites had stuff stolen, so if you are staying make sure you lock up as well as you can. sad end to a great weekend and fantastic weather.

Found by Sunshine Toledo at 11:00am with a couple of non-geocaching friends while staying in the area playing golf at Barnbougle and The Lost Farm. This cache was found quickly as the co-ords are spot on. What a great little beach nearby; some kids were playing in the sand but I can't say that the water was very warm. TFTC

It was easy to bring the rig in close to this one, as there were no campers around, just a few workmen. We were about to abandon our search, when Caz spotted it, and we soon had it logged an rehidden. TNLN. Thanks for another great beach in Tassie robtas!

Found on our North East caravan and caching weekend, a lovely spot found easily TFTC

(D)

Tftc. Took a bit to find as gps was a bit jumpy. But then found a likely spot which revealed the cache. Tnln Sl

Nice spot my little geo-travelers are on the hunt now.

Easy find but GPS a bit flaky. TFTC!

15/04/2011 17:44 Found: #387 Not long after Rocky Park we stopped off the 6th and final cache of the day. My youngest geoson picked this one up but was really spotted by both AAA and EagleEye. A lovely location and some photos were taken nearby. TFTC TNLN SL

EagleEye says " quick find. tnft tftc"

Ants everywhere, but found it without too much trouble. Not many muggle about so made the task easier.

D.N.F. searched for ages. Had heavy rain last night, hope it wasn't washed away.

Lovely spot to have a seat and admire the view. SL TNLN TFTC

I was right in the first place but I did not look hard enough. [xx(] It took me a while to find it. Great place.
Thanks robtas for the cache.

Quick Find by Geo Kid E

micheena - funny how you just know there must be one close by. Camping in the park overnight, had us sitting on a seat admiring the views earlier on this day. They laughted when I suggested that a cache could be near by. Thought I had gone caching loony. Who's laughing now.

Was a lovely day in this little town to check out all the caches in the area. tftc

Last cache before a long period of DidNotFounds. Many people on the beach. Thanks! #935

Nice quick find in a lovely area. Dropped off TB. TFTC.

QUICK FIND WHILE STAYING AT NEAR BY C/PARK WHILE ON OUR TASSIE C/VAN TOUR TNLN

Went for lovely early morning foreshore stroll from where we were staying (the Seaside Lodge Backpackers - thoroughly recommended). It was very pleasant - lots of spring flowers out and the weather was pleasant. TFTC, TNLN

Our first Geocache discovery. Almost washed into view by the recent heavy rain. Now safely tucked back into hiding.

Found with coffee in hand. The log papers were wet, we placed some new paper in the container. A beautiful area on a warm sunny day. TFTC

My first geocache find.Thanks Tassieaussie for the intro
