Another channel Trip

Thursday , 4 September 2014

As we ran out of time on a recent trip to the Channel district we returned to seek out those caches missed. The weather was even better than last time because there was no early fog.  Plans had to be slightly rearranged to fit in lunch at the Lotus Eaters cafĂ© in Cygnet. Coffee was spot on and the food good.  After this visit we still have more in the area to look for and another return is needed.

Ana's View

It was where expected.  It was a lovely bay we only had ever seen was briefly whilst driving past.
We left a lizard TB.

Tranquil Bay

Very neat hide which was not easy to see wearing sunglasses.  Left black sheep TB.

Middleton 1

Sue picked the correct side.  A small wallaby was very quiet close to us and may have been unwell, as it didn’t bolt off as is normal.

Two Ladies Meet

Didn’t take long to find once there.  We parked well south and walked along the beach.  Enjoyed the views of Huon Island and Adamson Peak.

Verona Sands

Bandicoots, Quolls and Bettongs

The GPS gave a reading some distance away, but we stuck with the hint and Sue said "try there" as we approached.

Steamers

Had to step down to see, and we had to contend with a muggle who was stopping regularly to take in scenery.

Expert Beach

Went along the beach but the tide was high and resorted to a scramble up the bank before getting to GZ.  It was easier returning by the road.  The hint and accurate coords made finding easy

Tricky Treats

As others reported, the cache was wet inside but the log wasn’t too bad.  We emptied the water and tried to place the log on a high spot.  It took a bit of scrub pushing to get to and we exited in a direct line back to the track rather than via the foreshore.
