Description
I am Geo Kid E entry in the Leapfrog cache race of 2011 / 2012. I am a small flat frog. Although I am not tiny I have magnets on my base so I can be placed in many locations. You don’t have to use the magnets; they are just there if you need them!
There is no log book, simply record your find on the GCA web site and also record your new location and hint via a “move” log on the same web site.
Have fun and keep on croaking (caching)

Went and retrieved it today. It had fallen out of the tree and was sitting on the ground. It wasn't that far in the thick stuff - I had it in 2 minutes from leaving track.
Will drop it off somewhere flat - like Budgie's desk!

It is a fair way off the track in the middle of some fairly thick scrub so I think it may be a while before some one finds it. If it is still there in a week I will go rescue it. Oh Yeah and blame Swampy for where it is cause that's where he put it lol
Be prepared to go bush bashing to get this one. Sticking in a tree
Found this frog and many others during a frog raid encompassing The Domain, Howrah, South Hobart and Mount Stuart.
In all, 47 frogs and a gnome were recovered and they will be placed out in the bush tomorrow. Maybe we'll take them to Cockle Creek, NO. Strathgordon or the old Hilton Hotel at Adamsfield! YES. They are good places.

Back out other frogs in the area hopping for a quick find
Found on our way back to the big smoke nice to find a new frog we haven't met before

Hitched a ride here and thought i would check outthe new playground,kids were onit so idecided to sit on the fence and watch for a while.
And he's back out. The gps was being a little silly so the hint is specific
Few laps of the oval and flat frog felt flat and laid down !
Very good Hiding Place.
Sneaky Swampy.

Back out and hanging out near some water, but not quite a frog habitat
A quick find but sorry jabs no frog on the picnic table and the co-ords for the other will have to wait till I get my kayak back as it is apparently out in the derwent
Please help while pE hid a frog I left one nearby on the park bench but can't remember the number. s42 55.357 e147 23.705
I left it with a cache we did on the way home, dad used a stick cause he said someone saw a snake.
Flat Frog wanted some fresh air with a water view after being trapped behind a metal sign in hot weather so we left him here.
Picked this very warm little frog up on our way to assist number 2 son with renovations to his recently purchased house. Will get him back out soon between plastering, painting and pruning.
Thought we'd logged this one back out again on an outing about an hour ago but a quick check when we got home and no log showing. Oh dear....this colourful boy is back out hiding from the bright sun in a carpark that was eerily empty today.
I logged this one on the move and for some reason the log hasn't uploaded. (Surely not the users fault...surely not....) Anyhow, located this colourful fellow on a quick trip through town and back home.
Ok almost missed this one but having a second look from a different angle come up good. Yep great views and good spot for an event.
Hi Budge
After looking for and not seeing this colourful croaker at the bus stop in Kingston the other day, I wasn't going to miss a chance of getting him today.
After getting two on Mt Stuart, drove to Tinderbox and found this "flatty" at 0653hrs.
TFTC and cheers; OldSaint.

A day by the seaside watching the submarines
Flat frog has found a new place to hide....
Mynel dropped by to take Flat Frog for a drive. Like Flat Frog's name suggests, he is pretty flat.... actually he is pretty AND flat!
Well swampy has stuffed me.
I called into my desk today to find my flat frog sitting on my desk. What can I do with this? If anybody wants to calling to budget rent a car during the week and collect him I will be grateful.

As soon as I looked at the map, I knew exactly where Flat Frog would be! And I was correct. Rehide this afternoon.
Hopefully someone has or can retrieve as being vertically challenged makes this one hard. I couldn't see frog so may be there still.

Back out hiding from the sun in the car park which doesn't have one car occupying a space in it today.
Found him out enjoying the mild calm Christmas day. A happy and bright fellow now spending a bit of time with a couple of froggy friends before his next adventure.

Kaatka must have just missed me finding the frog. Was out hiding others and this one was sort of on the way home so decided to see if he was still there. He is so flat i nearly missed him. Will move ASAP. Sorry Kaatka
Pretty sure I was looking in the right place but be darned if I could find this flat frog!
At the gateway to one of my favourite areas to ride, though I almost ploughed into this concrete structure one day!
After dropping off "We Serve" and failing to find "Wincy" (again), I headed home and checked for frogs on the way.
Lo and behold, this one was right by the road I was driving along!
An easy find sans GPSr.
Thanks GKE.

Flat frog does seem kind of 'mardi gras'!! I so dont get this huge bridge to nowhere....
Kingston now has its own bridge to nowhere. Froggie is watching all those cars coming in to check it out. At least 3 others came in for a sticky beak while we were there
