Description

My entry into the 2013/2014 Moveable Cache Race

This moveable is starting off in a favourite place of mine, Heirrson Island.  This cache is pretty unique.  It is made using a 3D printer.  I was able to find a design on Thingiverse of a weeping angel.  I submitted it to our local library (which amazingly had a 3D printer) and within a few days it was made.  The quality of the printing is quite good despite the fact not much tweaking is done to the printer settings.

So enjoy this angel and definitely keep an eye on it!

Went for a walk and collected this gorgeous girl. Will clean her up and drop her around home somewhere in the Riverland! Clan Phoenix
 
A review of this moveable has shown that the cache may still be in location, just sitting there waiting to be found. So, if you're in the area, or simply passing through, why not stop and help it on its way again.....

I had an afternoon grabbing a few caches, then I decided to check to see if GCA had anything new to offer - wait what! a trail of new GCA moveables was in town thanks to the lovely 2'ystassies, I love GCA caches, but alas people usually come to Adelaide and take the movables back with them interstate without dropping some new ones for us to find - not today, SA has been restocked and I will get these out and scattered as soon as possible.

Journey or Destination

Game Period: 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST

It is sometimes said [citation needed] that the game of geocaching is not about the destination it is about the journey. This game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.

On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing field with a number of ground tiles. Your playing field is a grid 20 x 20 ground tiles making a total number of 400 possible steps you can take on your journey or destination. You choose whether you want to find and follow the path or whether you wanted to meander around. A playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.

For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath. There are a number of different ground tiles that will be revealed when you click on your playing field. It should be noted that there are no punishments for clicking a tile but there will not always be the reward you were hoping for as you reveal each tile.


Dirt. The ground beneath the ground tile is just plain old brown dirt.

Dirt with some points. The ground beneath the tile is brown dirt but it has some points associated with it.

Concrete. The ground beneath is part of the pathway that will lead you on your way to your destination but has no point value.

Start. A concrete ground tile that has a blue map marker.

Destination. A ground tile that has a green map marker.


Meandering around and avoiding the path will accumulate points that will be used to place on you the ladder of wanderers. The more you stay off the path the higher the number of points you will accumulate and it will be your journey that will be the determining factor in whether you place into a prize winning position. You are free to select any ground tile to click on; they do not need to be next to each other.

Trying to find the path may mean you strike out on the dirt until you eventually come across the path and as a geocacher who can't say that this isn't a tried and true method. Once you find the path however will you try and follow the path as it changes direction around your playing field? Do you go North, South, East or West to try and find the next concrete tile along the path? If you head one way are you heading towards the start or towards the destination? When you do happen upon the destination tile then you will automatically be in a winning position.

At any point you are free to change from the journey to the destination and vice versa but you won't be able to regenerate your playing field. You are also free to keep playing as long as you have qualifying geocaches, accumulating more and more dirt tile points and placing you higher and higher on the ladder.

Qualifying geocaches fall into two categories. Finds and Hides.

A qualifying find is a geocache that meets the following criteria:

The geocache is listed at Geocaching Australia

The geocache has a hidden date prior to the game commencing

The geocache was logged by you on the Geocaching Australia website during the game period

The geocache was physically found by you during the game period

The geocache is not owned by you unless it is a moveable geocache

The geocache has not previously been found by you during the game period

The geocache is one of the following types:


Burke and Wills

Moveable (you will qualify only once for a find on a moveable geocache)

Traditional

TrigPoint

Augmented Reality

Beacon

Gadget

Multi-cache

Night Cache

Podcache

Reverse

Unknown or Mystery



A qualifying hide is a geocache that meets the following criteria:

The geocache is listed at Geocaching Australia

The geocache has a hidden date after the game has commenced

The geocache was published on the Geocaching Australia website during the game period

The geocache has a container size of regular or larger (Note: A regular geocache has a volume of 1 litre or more)

The geocache is one of the following types:


Moveable

Traditional

Augmented Reality

Beacon

Gadget

Multi-cache

Night Cache

Podcache

Reverse

Unknown or Mystery



The game tracking mechanism relies upon your honesty when logging geocaches as found or hidden.

The games administrators will undertake verification of a statistically significant number of logs.

Players who continually log inaccurate information will be disqualified from the game. The game administrators decision is final.

The game administrators will subtract qualifying hide or find geocaches from your tally if they are found to be not genuine.

The game administrators reserve the right to provide clarifications to the rules at any point during the game.

Don't forget to claim your limited time game trophies, if your qualify, while the game is in progress. Once the game completes the ability to claim your trophies is lost for ever.

This fine summer's evening attended geocaching australia event: The Moveables are Here!!, graciously hosted by Tassie Trekkers. Was fortunate to make it to the event as was not working and I only noted that it was going to be held on the previous evening - almost missed it. So many moveables in the one spot, roughly 150 in attendance. Nothing for it but to record a couple of notebook pages full of numbers. A very cute, however, somewhat sad little angel found among others, waiting for a message from god at Riverside.. thanks..!!

Out and about today with RLD4963 and the GeoGSP, I stopped in at the moveable event (GA13269). It was flat out spotting and logging moveable caches - have not seen so much action at a geocaching event before. Luckily there was a nearby GC event after this one, where we could recover with a cuppa and a biscuit. Good luck to everyone for the current GCA game, and thanks to everyone who has published geocaches in time for the event! Cheers. Thanks Fluffyfish.

Found at the Snug moveable meet along with many other moveables. What a busy time I will have logging all these moveables. I found four moveables at Evandale and bought these along for the ride. Other people bought many more though! Everyone had a great time. Today’s event will help everyone in their position on the ladder for the summer game. The game is described below

You are also free to keep playing as long as you have qualifying geocaches, accumulating more and more dirt tile points and placing you higher and higher on the ladder.

A moving cache, by nature, may have been moved since you last determined its location. It may have been picked up but not yet rehidden so it's considered 'in-transit'. There is no foolproof method of determining where a cache is simply by the log types that have been placed against the cache. In general the following applies:

A moved log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with no new co-ordinates may indicate one of two situations:
The cache has been found and left in place.
The best way to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether it is still in place.
The cache has been found and the cacher has taken it away to re-hide it.
The best was to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether they have taken it away.
In essence, you will need to read the last log to determine whether the cache is in place or whether the cache has been moved. Remember that even though the logs indicate the cache may be at a certain location, it may have been picked up and moved only moments before you arrived. That's part of the challenge of a moving cache; you're never quite sure whether it's a DNF because you can't spot it or it's been moved along.

Thanks for the cache

The event was a great idea (well done Stainless Steel Rat) as it tied in with a nearby GC event that was scheduled after this. Coming at the start of the new summer games also allowed the attendees to rack up a few points for the Journey or Destination Game (information below)

A moved log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with no new co-ordinates may indicate one of two situations:
The cache has been found and left in place.
The best way to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether it is still in place.
The cache has been found and the cacher has taken it away to re-hide it.
The best was to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether they have taken it away.
In essence, you will need to read the last log to determine whether the cache is in place or whether the cache has been moved. Remember that even though the logs indicate the cache may be at a certain location, it may have been picked up and moved only moments before you arrived. That's part of the challenge of a moving cache; you're never quite sure whether it's a DNF because you can't spot it or it's been moved along.
 
I found this along with loads of others at this mornings GCA event Snug moveable meet (GA13269)

A quick event that was tied in with a nearby GC event that was scheduled after this. Coming at the start of the new

summer games also allowed the attendees to rack up a few points for the Journey or Destination Game (information

below)

The latest Geocaching Australia game runs from 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST


This new game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.

On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing field with a number of ground tiles. Your playing

field is a grid 20 x 20 ground tiles making a total number of 400 possible steps you can take on your journey or

destination. You choose whether you want to find and follow the path or whether you wanted to meander around. A

playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.

For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to

click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath. There are a number of different ground tiles that will be

revealed when you click on your playing field. It should be noted that there are no punishments for clicking a tile

but there will not always be the reward you were hoping for as you reveal each tile


Dirt. The ground beneath the ground tile is just plain old brown dirt.

Dirt with some points. The ground beneath the tile is brown dirt but it has some points associated with it.

Concrete. The ground beneath is part of the pathway that will lead you on your way to your destination but has no

point value.

Start. A concrete ground tile that has a blue map marker.

Destination. A ground tile that has a green map marker.

Meandering around and avoiding the path will accumulate points that will be used to place on you the ladder of

wanderers. The more you stay off the path the higher the number of points you will accumulate and it will be your

journey that will be the determining factor in whether you place into a prize winning position. You are free to

select any ground tile to click on; they do not need to be next to each other.

Trying to find the path may mean you strike out on the dirt until you eventually come across the path and as a

geocacher who can't say that this isn't a tried and true method. Once you find the path however will you try and

follow the path as it changes direction around your playing field? Do you go North, South, East or West to try and

find the next concrete tile along the path? If you head one way are you heading towards the start or towards the

destination? When you do happen upon the destination tile then you will automatically be in a winning position.

At any point you are free to change from the journey to the destination and vice versa but you won't be able to

regenerate your playing field. You are also free to keep playing as long as you have qualifying geocaches,

accumulating more and more dirt tile points and placing you higher and higher on the ladder.

We saw there had been new caches published linking New Norfolk to Huonville so we thought we might head off and find them and quite a few others in the Huon area that had been published while we have been away. As we had planned to see the grandsons play their soccer matches it was nearly lunchtime before we made a start. Seeing the New Norfolk end cache had been found we decided to head to the Huon Valley area and then work our way to New Norfolk via the Plenty Link Road.
We stopped to do a multi near where Perth Weeping Angel was hidden but were muggled out, so grabbed the Angel and another moveable and headed off to another cache. Will move on soon.

After enjoying sometime back civilisation Perth Weeping Angel is ready to set sail again. She had no wish to return to the wilderness and was last seen heading towards the open door of a fellow cacher's home.

After a very busy day that started with a very early morning walk into Liffey Falls that resulted in a DNF followed by a trip along the Birralee road for a FTF and a trip into Launceston for another cache a dash home for lunch and a shower before heading out for a family funeral we felt like an evening walk. As we had yet to find our GCA cache for today - another gap on our Finds by Day of the Year Dragon Zone grid - we decided to head up Mount Montgomery to rescue Perth Weeping Angel as she had spent four weeks in the Tasmanian bush.

We left the car at what used to be the Penguin tip and headed along the Myrtle Creek Track - what a shock we got Myrtle Creek was dry and the usually lush moss was withered and crisp. We had last been in this area in July when the creek was running swiftly and the moss was brilliant and lush. What a difference a few months of unusually hot dry weather can make. The sun was setting as we made our way up and there was much scurrying along the track side as little animals made there way out to forage as the air temperature dropped. The black cockatoos were having a riotous time in the trees above and every now and then a large dead branch would fall. They seemed to have found a food source in the dead branches and were ripping them apart with great gusto.

Accurate coordinates and an excellent hint lead to a quick find of this intriguing little angel. 3D printing has certainly come a long way. We did notice that her plastic has become brittle in places and she has lost part of one wing. With the angel safely stowed away in our caching bag it was time to return.

We thoroughly enjoyed finding your weeping angel Fluffyfish and will get her out and about in the next day or two.

A lovely little fairy. I picked it up from a hazardous spot on the highway and relocated her to a scenic spot that is just a short stroll from a fantastic rest area alongside the Numeralla River. This spot is very popular for caravans and motorhomes so watch out for muggles.

There is an historical marker at the rest area that implies that the exploration team that discovered the Monaro turned back just short of reaching the Numeralla and Murrumbidgee Rivers. D'oh! Very Happy
