The 12 Days of Cachemas (TDOC24) is a series of caches placed across Victoria to celebrate Cachemas in July in 2024. The series is a joint initiative of Geocaching Victoria and the local community to release caches in a different category each day across the state. We hope you have as much fun finding this series, as we all had placing them. A geocaching list of the full series is available at https://coord.info/BMDGW0P
On the tenth day of Cachemas, Signal gave to me,
mysteries for solving,
lots of TOTTs a needing,
new letters boxing,
big hides for finding,
some gadgets tricking,
hides in a rare LGA,
two quirky challenges,
one night hide,
two earthcaches,
and a wherigo up in a tree.
