Searching to find a new cache in the same location, discovered this instead.
Cache has been remove due to proximity.

Parked in the Molonglo Reach carpark near the boat sheds and made my way to GZ.
This bridge is such a great place for a cache! There are great views of the Molonglo River below, and it is also the first bridge to cross the start of the river, so quite special!

The cache was found per the hint, the tin is rusty but other than that this cache is in perfect condition for it's age So I signed the log before exploring a little further on foot and returning to my car.

Thanks Tealby!

No response from the owner within the last 28 Days and as per my original note this cache has been archived. If you wish to replace it please submit a new cache via [this link](https://www.geocaching.com/play/hide).

Cache was still here so logged it. TNLNSL TFTC

Nice one

#1904 3 or 3 today. Found with goutigers on a bike ride to wear off some chocolate.

#5951 @1835
Following this evening's event I rode to here for a quick find. TFTC.

Deciding on whether to keep this cache, archive or replace with something else.

Found this one about a month ago and must have forgotten to log it. Was looking at the wrong side of the bridge for quite some time.

Found with RSB1B2 but didn't log it. TFTC

Found with Leonardo 2006 whilst visiting Canberra today TFTC

Another quick one in between getting swooped by a magpie.

Cool. Busy.

A quick find as we walked past. TFTC

TFTC! wasnt sure if should go the top bridge or the bottom but worked it out in the end.

Was looking for a reasonably quick find after work, and this one was not far out of the way:-). Walked over from the kayaking (not rowing) shed with geohound and Geoman. Quick find once we figured out the right level!

Despite my pen working only a few minutes beforehand, it gave up the ghost when I was trying to inscribe my name in the log. Managed to coax a few microns of graphite out of the pencil to make a mark

Thanks Tealby for the cache - now to scope another cache out before my early morning dash to Sydney!

Thanks heaps, needs new pencil pls

# 1468 I planned to catch this cache on the way to work but by the time I reached here, I was running short on time.

This afternoon, I did the u-turn at the round about, nearly cleaned up by a chick who didn't bother checking over her right sholder. Parked at the rowing club sheds and walked to GZ to make a quick find. Traffic was busy, so I had to attend to that pesky shoelace that always comes undone (I have elastic laces that never come undone).

Thanks for this cache! I found it when I visited Canberra this week (:

Found while riding around the lake collecting caches and munzees.

Found this on my first Geocaching adventure. TFTC

Under or over? Gotcha. TFTC.

Nice day to be out and caching TFCT Tealby

No luck today. Sure I puzzled many drivers with my antics

A sneaky hide. Jr Cachehunter #2 spotted it after we'd had a cursory look.

It was pretty quiet on the bike path while we made the find, but got busy again shortly thereafter. Lucky that.

TFTC.

After a great day caching near the airport, my grandad and I found a couple of caches before going home. This was the last one for the day. We parked nearby and made the shortish walk to the cache. After a fair amount of time searching and dodging bikes, I finally found the cache. Sneaky spot! I signed the logbook and replaced.

Our thanks to Tealby!

A QuickFind between passing cyclists while walking to the airport. Scanned the munzee and noted the information and was on my way. TFTC Tealby

Had an early start to play golf today and the flaming cats woke me before dawn; so instead of going to sleep I thought this would be a perfect time to get a few caches in high muggle areas or where the Geokids probably wouldn't go or not easy to get to. Thanks for a good spot and find.

A quick pickup while driivng through. Last log is strange as there is a pen in the cache??
TFTC Wilbert67

Had a quick look for this one. No luck though. Will try again next time.

Found on a leisurely ride around the lake didn't have a pen so wasn't able to sign. TFTC

#2459 - 06:50; I headed out this morning for an early Friday find, only to be thwarted when plan(e) A came adrift with a potentially muggle cache. I quickly moved on to plan B as I needed to return home to get ready to face the day and time was running out. Found a pretty convenient park and leaving the geomobile behind made my way to GZ, where a very quick find was had. Signed the log, replaced the cache and was soon headed home, almost on schedule. TFTC Tealby

Busy place with all the cars passing by...but found two moments where there was none...

TFTC

Lovely day for a geocache or 2!

Good hide. BYO pencil.

Well, today was the first real day of caching for my holidays and I enjoyed a pleasant ride around the lake. 37 finds and 10 DNFs! This was the sixteenth find of the day. There are certainly a lot of works happening around here! I hope I didn't look too suspicious around GZ but with the cache hidden the way it was, it was difficult to be inconspicuous. A quick find, log signed and cache returned. TFTC Tealby!

Hard to be discrete here, just had to make the grab regardless. Nice container that seems to be nice and dry.

Thanks

3rd day in Canberra, cycling the eastern and parlamentary Loop of Lake Griffiths. Nice and sunny autumn weather, collecting some caches in between. TFTC

Despite some friendly misinformation from a passer by - we found it eventually! TFTC

Sunday 13 April 2014 - a beautiful sunny autumn afternoon with scattered dark clouds across the sky perfect for a 35km bike ride from Belconnen. Quick and easy find. Thx p2p. TFTC

Nice bridge

This is the first cache the kids, my dad and I found whilst cycling around east basin. We met a new comer to geocaching - Maurie - at the cache and he was looking for it too. It was nice to stop and have a bit of a chat before signing the log and crossing the river to head to our next find. Slowly but surely I am gathering the information needed to solve the puzzle.....eventually! TFTC Tealby.

A cycle around Lake Burley Griffin with friends and grabbed a few caches.
Fist one on the cycle around. Thanks

Found with jase from jessnjas - Forgot to log

Very happy to find this cache. TFTC Tealby

Having an appointment canceled had some time to kill, so go grab a few caches before the next one. Quick grab in an exposed position. Took trackable TFTC

Early morning walk along the river; really lovely. Easy find at this hour too. Left a traveller. TFTC

Found this a while ago
Thought I’d update my finds only a few weeks late
Very well hidden fun search
TFTC

Found this with Gretta on ride around lake. TFTC.
16:49 [28/31]

After no luck today in finding "The Far Peninsula", our caching spirits were lifted as we walked back to the car and pick this little one up.
Thanks Tealby!

Domsky

great spot tftc

TFTC

Wow, I beat GoeSon to this find - things are looking up for me! Nice hide, challenging with the amount of muggle activity - even on a Sunday afternoon, but it all comes down to timing. Reasonable landing place for those who arrive by water, which is the hard way to get there. TFTC.

You sure know what time of year it is when you are kicking your way through a carpet of leaves. Nice easy walk and find. TFTC Tealby!
Cheers,
GrimRaider.

Found today with GrimRaider on the way home from a Fyshwich shopping spree. This is a lovely park and we nice to get out and kick through the leaves. Had to watch for muggles when retrieving the cache. TFTC Tealby

Found today after stopping at Telopea Park for lunch. Decided to go for a walk and pick up this cache as it was close by. Now I have to go and find the rest of the series. TFTC

love the Pokemon series so I'm glad to find a cache series for them! Not much of a grass type so finding Gloom was eh, hopefully you have a Charizard floating around here somewhere

I ride past this at least a couple of times a week. It has literally been a few years since my last DNF on it. Today, I was walking this loop starting near Telopea Park and as I neared, I remembered it was nearby. No GPS required, just an educated guess as where it was going to be. Lots of stuff happenning across the road! About 3 km later, I remember that I had forgotten the clue but that is OK, I have lost all the others as well

Found this - on a ride round the lake. Love the wetlands area. Yep you can even stay on the bike while getting this one. Good time to pick any blackberries if you want to get some of them that are now ready in the area.

Might try some of the other caches in the area ove the next few weeks.

Thanks Tealby.

Log book replaced, although the old book still had plenty of room with blank spaces throughout the book!!

Quick find. The log is really full. Please replace! TFTC Tealby!

What better way to celebrate Christmas Day,
when you don't have family near by.
Our first cache for the day.
TFTC

Log is full

Found cache with baldderf while doing some random caching

Nice quick oppertunistic find with TJ Jim. The pokemon theme had us bother thinking back ...
TFTC

Both pencils are unusable and the log is close to full. TFTC

Searched high and low, around and around, sniffed fumes, the regular place but it was not located by the cycling duo from Jindy.

Returned when it was slightly less busy, and in the guise of someone going for a run to avoid suspicion. Found it without too much trouble. Log's overfull and needs replacing. TFTC.

Little owl narrowly avoided a collision with a hurtling cyclist here, but we got it and Thanks for the cache Tealby

Nice easy find on the way home, lots of muggles even after dark!

That seemed easy, didn't even have to get off the bike.

Found this on a bicycle ride. TFTC

A quick easy find after a short walk. Thanks.

This one will need a new log book very soon. Please see my found it log.

877. Found with STEV87 just on dark. Searched around for a bit and then found what we were looking for. Had to sign the back cover of the log book. TFTC.

97.found it with boot65 this being my thered go at this one but got it this time thanks to boot65 keen eye.

An easy find tho log book nearly full. TNLN. HOTA

Tftc

Easy find.

Second find of the day and smartly hidden on the same route

Nice day for a walk TFTC

Not where I expected it to be, log book full TFTC

Number 20. I had to use the hint to get my hands on this cache. Well hidden.
Great cache.
TFTC

All good things are three. This was the 3rd time I visit GZ and finally found it. More experienced, no one waiting impatiently on me and extending my search radius had me find it quickly this time.
People have started taking the bridge apart so it is not an easy find . Thanks for the cache Tealby.

Today is the day that we find our 2000th cache - rather excited! This one took us a little while. We parked in the car park near the boat ramp and walked over towards GZ. We were fairly certain we knew where it would be hidden, but the GPS was trying to tell us a different story. Eventually we trusted our instincts and found the cache in between passing traffic. TNLNSL TFTC

Tim, Sandra, tony, Rosemarie, Rachel and Finn 27 May 2012

We continued along the PPT journey - completing them in reverse order. What a great park here. We stopped for longer and enjoyed afternoon tea here as it was such a pleasant outlook.

Thanks for another in the series Tealby.

Took a while to find even with a couple of geokids. TFTC.

Found after a hunt TFTC

A quick and fun find. A nice walk around GZ. Thanks. Cheers

Missed on my first look and the daphoenix swooped in for the grab.

TFTC

Found the Cache
Good Hide
No muggles about

Very nice camo found pretty quickly in group of 3.

TFTC

Another one found and another clue collected. Tricky find but only due to the high muggle traffic.

TFTC Tealby

A little hard to retrieve with the traffic. TFTC.

After finding the other cache in the series...i again made the mistake of not collecting the clue.. excuse for another epic 53km ride !!

It was quite a busy area with the normal throng of runners and cyclists zipping past...

quick find once my GPS decided to behave...
