Description

 

If you have ever seen the American Pie movies then you will know where Pede got his name from!

Pede is BIG, BRIGHT BOLD and is on the run from the Band Camp musos - he doesn't want to spend another summer blowing his own trumpet.

Pede is part of the Leap Frog 2011 cache race that runs from 1st December, 2011 to 31st January, 2012.

Please move him fast and far - feel free to post some pics of his summer time antics.

'Pede' has also elected to join his Mates in Bicentennial Park, he was feeling a bit peckish, although unusually for a frog Tim Tam seem to be his preferred sustenance.

Found Pede at the Fourth Annual Hills Geocaching Event at Rouse Hill!

Always great to meet a new Leap Frog. And he's a nice one . . .

Think I'll transport him out to Lithgow to pick up a few extra kilometres.

Stabby Grr! Too late yet again!

Did not find this one, it had been gnapped already, strange place to leave a Frog with no cover that I could see.

Enjoyed a few days safe from Tiger Snakes, and enjoyed a long hop from Melbourne to Adelaide, to play with the locals.
Enjoying listening to his neighbours the cockatoos in the trees close-by.
Adding a photo from his trip over.
Happy Travels.

Picked up. Unfortunately I've finished band for the year as I'm in Melbourne and not Adelaide, for our last job of the year - Carol's in the Park, otherwise I'd taken him along to practice and a gig.
He'll have to make do with a trip to wander around Adelaide.
Will release on Friday.
Was going to replace with another frog, but decided to go for a short walk in the wetlands.
Scared myself silly when a yellow snake crossed my path - no way was I going to leave a frog under a bush in the this area ShockedSickStabby

Please move him on!!

Bright all right.

Easy find in his hide today.

I swooped for a helping hand.

Time to move on.

With 15 frogs to drop off somewhere tonight, where should I go. None of this "easy-peasy" lots of frogs at the same coordinates stuff. So, I headed out to the logical place for Dropping Frogs Off (DFO). Good luck, this might take a few hours to round them all up! Check out the detailed hint.
 
05-Dec-11
Grabbed from KoT's favourite cache-box. Will move it on tomorrow.

So many frogs, so little time. This froggie is hiding out in the usual place for a quick pick up (I hope).

I found this frog with caughtatwork and big sister J today. It was fun to find this one.
 
04-Dec-11
Quick find after a tip-off for a three-in-one froggie bonanza. Will be moving down to Melbourne.
