Weir Walk Bomaderry, New South Wales, Australia
By Pelusa on 30-Aug-08. Waypoint GC1FQWC

Found, nice and easy. Managed to sign the log but it's saturated. Cache is full of rusted brown water, emptied what l could but this cache needs a bit of TLC. TFTC

I can't keep the water out so I'm writing it off. Sorry
Pelusa

Found with LovelyLadyLocks TFTC. Everything is very wet though. Cache needs some TLC

Every is wet inside ...

Nice walk there, fast find.

Got it

After a big day in Kiama yesterday, I had planned for today to be a quiet day at home.
(Un)Fortunately, I woke up early enough to consider heading to Nowra - worth the full day out geocaching.
Still chipping away at the 50km radius, today I picked up 10% of the remaining hides, which isn't too bad at all! Thanks for the hot, sweaty, dirty and exhausting day.

7th of the day,
Admittedly, I found this one after taking a wrong turn to head to a nearby Multi!
Signed Log and replaced, TFTC

An adventurous find! And a cool new place to discover!

Found it!!

A great spot TFTC

A nice walk and eventually a great find, thanks.

Great little informative walk. TFTC!

Thanks for the cache. Fun find.

Found it!

TFTC. This was the first find for our school group!

Nice little picnic area nearby. Good sized cache we do enjoy ones this size. Thanks.

Great spot
Tftc

Very slippery area.

Found it, woohoo!

Dried it out and left new log
pelusa

TFTC log was very wet and couldn't sign so I took a picture you might have to replace it very wet inside also

This was our third cache for the day after finishing the beautiful creek loop walk. Our three year old geokid spotted it this time without any assistance! I guess the perspective closer to the ground helped .
Actually, the cache was pretty much soaked in water. I guess it needs some maintenance. TFTC pelusa!

Found on a day trip down to Nowra and surrounds with Hoojar and The Rats.

As we tackled the nearby multi this was really a bonus. TFTC!

My 4-legged geo friend and I loved this walk. Was relatively easy but geo buddy got a bit too close to dangerous rocks. Watch geo kids.

Took a while before I was heading in the right direction

Never would have been here if it weren't for the cache, so thank you for bringing me here - what a splendid sight gave the cache a bit more cover, because I could see it as soon as stood on the right rock. Pen was out of ink, so I couldn't sign.

Thanks pelusa

Thanks for the cache

I think this completes our Bomaderry Creek set. TFTC

An interesting spot. But it was too hot to linger and explore. Luckily it was a quick find.
Thanks for the cache.

Nice cache, thanks TFTC

Find Number 583 found at 14:23

While Gill went to a meeting with friends, Tony had the car to himself for a whole day and a GPS full of unfound local caches. My plan was to pick up the only one I'm missing on the Highway and then do the Braidwood Road caches into Nowra finally finishing up in Bomaderry

This time the GeoPrius took one look at the track and threw me out for a walk. I hiked in and made a quick and easy find at GZ, thanks to spot on coordinates.

The cache was in good condition. We took nothing, left nothing and replaced the cache as found.

Thanks pelusa for the cache.

What a great hide. Have not been here for ages. TFTC.

Beautiful day for a bush walk. Nice easy find. Dropped off TB8WPDPK. Thankyou pelusa

nice place. thanks

Nice hide. Beautiful spot

Easy find cache contents a bit wet

Found whist bush walking in the area with friends. TFTF.

We arrived in town mid morning, left the van at the park & headed out to do some caching.
Started at the information centre headed out to North Nowra area then back home again.
This was a great drive through farm land.
The cache were of a good & varied type all in good condition.
Thanks for placing this cache pelusa

My first find! Great fun. Now I'd better get to work!

Great find, finally looked under the right rock..live locally didn't even know this track existed TNLN

Found in October 2013 - signed log as 'leanne_t_perry'.
Now have a new username.

Catching up logging old finds - found as a team member of perry_clan on 13/10/13

This year we have a long winter holiday when we are travelling in the Pacific. We are doing sightseeing and geocaching. Now we will spend a six week period in Australia where we will drive from Melbourne to Murray Bridge and then via Grampians to Canberra, Sidney and Brisbane.

Today we had planed to go from Batemans Bay and then spend the night somewhere north of Sidney. Our first stop this morning was at this place where we had a short break, took the two caches in the nighbourhood and then drove on.

Thanks for cache. Greetings from Sweden / Geparderna

Phew hot day for this one but it was good to find one this size

9.1.14. Found. Took butterfly rubber, left lanyard. Tftc

Finally looked under the right rock

Great walk down to this one - thanks for the extra directions! Once the GPS settled it was spotted easily by Nav Akubra. Cache seemed very exposed so just gave it a little camo cover. SLTNLN
TFTC, pelusa

We were more than prepared to take the Weir Walk. It seems in reasonable condition, so not sure what the 'Needs Maintenance' icon is about. Hadn't been able to collect enough scissors so as to leave a pair in such a nice sized cache.

A little fiddling around with the GPS on my phone, getting a little frustrated. We turned around and there it was. It was poking out a little and easy to spot from a few metres away if you are in the right position. We didn't put it behind the lower rocks in case it was too hard to see. Someone had left some litter behind (Booo!). Signed the book and introduced my parents to Geocaching.

Warm day better than yesterday cold with windy... Wow lovely view fallwater...Easy to find as hide very well thanks

Was the first one we found.... And was by accident too... Was out shooting some nature photos when a mate Joel picked it up and emptied its contents thinking it was an old lunchbox

Found it. Great cache. Thanks Wolfgang (Bob) left GC ACAWRK and grabbed a little Dino.

Great walk. Kids loved the rocky adventure and thought mums mini slide on rock moss was hilarious! Easy find. Our pup loved this exploration also! Thank u. Kids swapped some dinosaurs for smurfette.

Umm, yes well this could have been easier to find than I made it if I had actually google maped it before hand. Ended up 25m from the cache but considerably higher up and on the other side of the creek.
But fun was had scrambling up and down rocks until the log was in hand.

Thanks for the cache.

Decided to hit these two as a deviation from my original Nowra -> Gerroa plan for today. I'm glad I did, it's a nice area for a bushbash and a stroll. I initially tried to get to this one via the north fork and the tennis court carpark but realised the path was leading me away, so went to the other parking area and did the multi first. Then I wasn't too far from this one, so a nice walk along the path, a short rock scramble and a look around and I soon had cache in hand. There's a strange bottle with paper in it next to the cache, is this the puzzle mentioned in an earlier log? Wasn't able to get the paper out (so it seems I fail the puzzle) but from what I could see the paper has some religious stuff on it, so perhaps more of interest to those so inclined. Anyway, a nice detour in this area, TFTC!

Did the cache as a quick 'after school' activity. A nice easy one located by my 5 y/o son. TFTC.

Found with great difficulty with gpfarrow .after heading in wrong direction thanx to gps going crazy back tracked and found ... Great hide

Need to keep at it if you want to find this one.

After being sent in wrong direction....soaked shoes thx lol we finally found it. Great hide great bush bash. Found with dreamcatcher 69.

My first find

Found with Paulyman and Snorris. So glad I finally found it TFTC

Nice quick find with snorris and marachup. TFTC. Those rocks are slippy in the wet, be warned!

Found with paulyman and marachup while visiting family in Nowra this weekend. Quick and easy find, TFTC.

Kids found it before I did, nice one

Second time looking for this one. I still couldn't find it and got attacked by bugs

Lovely father & son walk, nice find. Traded SWAG, SL. Visited trackables; TFTF!!

I had a look all around for this one today. Light was fading fast and the GPS was bouncing all over the place. I won't give up though, I'll be back next Sunday! B)

Yay for us!
This is our first find. Walked here before and enjoyed it again today. Thanks for getting us back there again.
Took 'army dude' - Left 'little Smurfette'

Will also log the board walk up the end there as a "Footbridge Challenge" S 34 51.176' E 150 35.666'
(web address here ... http://www.geocaching.com/challenges/CX46C4_Footbridges )

First log for us ... hope it turns out right!
=)

Nice walk in the late winter afternoon. The GPS was a bit all over the place but eventually found it.

A great day for caching today but it was very wet at the GZ and quite slippery, fortunately I left the geoson and the geograndsons with the geonan back at the park. A good find again. I was here with the geoson years ago but I was not caching then. TFTC pelusa, you must hav been down and filled it up with goodies, it is packed tight.

Nearly 2 years ago, when I first got my GPS, I searched high & low for this one with no success. Back in the area today and a lot more caches under my belt I thought I would walk straight up to this one. How wrong was I. The water was flowing over the rocks making them VERY slippery. The gizmo was bouncing all over the place. I was not leaving without a find. A very well stocked & dry cache was eventually located. As it was Relay for Life Day I left a Cancer Council fridge magnet. I lost my sunglasses along the way, so if anybody finds a pair, please leaving them with the cache & message me. Thanks.

really fun cache to find!

Great one to look for, in a great hard to get to location. Be careful! This one is dedicated to a brave Helga who bravely came with the boys.

Great location, careful of the slippery rocks in the area. Great spot for a hide, thanks.

Well well well, what a difference it makes when the co-ords are right. have had the kids on a long hike looking for this one a while ago in the totally wrong direction. so when right co-ords done easier found, & geodog enjoyed the water and lizard chasing

Crew halved with the royboy needing some attention, this one was definately a bit more challenging. With rafty, hazman and the shelga we got there, some tricky slip and slide on the rocks on the way. Need to abandon plans for our next conquest - it's dinner-time!

was hard to find gps' were jumpy
almost slipped over

Found the cache after a short hard bush bash. Took the trackable

Wow, what a location! Came here earlier in the year, and could not find it. Too many muggles! Apparently the boardwalk was broken, so family didn't want to walk if we had to come ALL THE WAY back!!! After looking in all the rocks nooks and crannys, my brother looked down and cried out, " I found it!" The first one he has found by himself. VERY SLIPPERY!

Took - travel bug and boomerang keyring
Left - army truck and giant pink paperclip

G.P.S Markings out by 5mtr But Nice Spot Thanks

Nice spot, great day for caching, TFTC

While down at the parents house I decided to go on a jog. Figured out a route where I could tackle a couple of caches on the way. This was the 1st one, and the adjusted co-ordinates took me right to the spot. Was nice to find a regular sized cache after the myriad of micros (some even nanos) I'd done previously in the day. Used to do a bit of bass fishing down here back in the day, theres probably a few lures still hanging in the trees that I'd lost years ago. SL, TNLN, TFTC!

Sadly I couldn't find him... Runnin outta time, gotta go to work.. Walk is over 5 mins ago and gotta go all the home now!

Really interesting find. Amazing how nature can reclaim an area built up by man.
Amazing little park right next to the weir, had ourselves a picknick. I suggest you do the same.

You don't need to put yourself in any dangerous positions to find the cache, however there are a few thron like plants on the way in, so that should be your only risk.

TNLN TFTC

Started off for this one, but it was way too slippery to be safe, especially with dogs in tow, so we didn't attempt the cache. Nice walk, though.

I used the co-ord's listed in the logs below when it was re-enabled. And they were spot on! Found GZ quickly and opened it to find a non-cacher named 'Nathan Fletcher' had signed the log saying he had found it by accident! =)

Great little spot! thanks for the cache!

(Oh and I wanted to add, the car park at the tennis courts was a bit scary! I went to park and found a burned out ute!! O.O!! So I parked at the walk entry.. felt safer that way ....!)
