Printable information sheet to attach to Tommy's Hairy Legs
Print Info Sheet |

Laura and I have hoped not to run into any creepy crawlers while on our Spring break 2024 in Australia, but we did. On the occasion of visiting this new continent, we decided to buy and release two TBs, which encapsulate our phobias and the possibly dangerous nature of this country. We hope these two will be traveling for a while around the continent (or region), and document some similar stories of other geocachers.
Laura's nope rope and Tommy's hairy legs are a snake and spider TB released in April 2024. We hope for these two TBs to travel the continent and gather stories and photos of the wildlife encounters (fun or scary) which this country has to offer. Hopefully, none too scary!
We hope to see many photos of the TBs' travels, and hope the two TBs can race against each other to see who travels further. Tommy's Hairy legs was dropped off first on April 14th at the countries' first robotic book retrieval library (with 1195km travled with us), while Laura's Nope Rope stayed with us for 2603.4km until April 16th, when it was left at the old Gippy TB hotel. We added 9 photos to is gallery and hope you can add some too! Safe travels!

I returned back to town in an Uber and decided to walk along the coast while we caught up to one another with Laura and Julia. Of course, I had this TB by my side the entire time, so that made the trip a little more bearable!

This was a big shame. I said goodbye to the ladies so I could visit a bunch of T5s here in the area, but the ‘ferry’ was out for maintenance and so I wasn’t able to visit. What a big shame. I came so far and with no results…

As this was the day we would say goodbye to Laura’s friend who so courteously let us stay with her, we headed down town to spend some time together, and visit the city one last time by foot. While on our walk near the river, two DNFs behind us, we came to the edge of the botanical garden and stopped by this hidden gem in the city. We visited the grotto and waterfall and Julia and Laura quickly spotted the container as I trailed them. Here, we found the stash without issue and gladly found out that someone dropped their TB here just after activating it. We thought we should help it along, so it joined our team and will continue its travels with us. Such a cool stop here!
