Currently on a roadtrip with buddies (McLookers, micaparamedic and TheDame) to Mildura, MacCabe's Corner, Broken Hill, Tibooburra, Cameron Corner, Orroroo and back to Adelaide.

This took a little longer than we would have liked to find, but McLookers was on fire and as a result our names are now in the logbook.

Thanks Jardry for the cache.

This was a nice quick and easy find while out on a caching trip with ilook4geo and Geologic2. Actually the lush growth did make it quite well hidden. All was in good order and the log soon had 3 more names added to it. Thanks for this cache hide go to Jardry.

Staying in Renmark for a short holiday, using caching as a guide as to where we travel. 41 caches were found along and around the state border. This cache is one that was found today.

A quick find in between traffic. Crikey there are some road trains wizzing through here, could get cleaned up if your not watching. All good here.

Find #4262 on 18 Jul 2022.
TFTC Jardry!

Jenno3, kenbryl and I had a mission that we were trying to do. We pulled up here and soon had the cache found, mainly because it was out in the open. After standing by while a car went over the grid at a million miles per hour we could understand how the cache may have vibrated its way to where we found it. Tftc
 
14-Mar-22
Headed here on our way to our mission. A nice starter to get the caching blood flowing.
Looking around for the sachet when we saw a car approaching….. got ready for it but I don’t think you can never be truely ready…. Gawd it was loud!!! Found the cache just laying in the open. Put it back where we thought it went now off in our mission tftc
 
13-Mar-22
What a whirlwind few days we've had. Out this way to see if we can carry out a mission. Stopped in here to make the find. I couldn't help but laugh as the others pooped themselves as a car hit the grid at a million miles an hour!! tftc

Day 26 of our southern trip. Leaving Red Cliffs and on our way to Sedan in South Australia. We are Team 4 4 QLD - RoddyC, hatzofff, Snickersallan and Grannysmith1947.

I wish we had the time to stop and do all the caches you suggest here, but with the Five Corner View cache on the Must Do list and having to be in Sedan tonight..... Oh well, next time perhaps. It certainly is an interesting area.

Log signed and cache replaced as found on February 4, 2022. TFTC, Jardy

A great little stop on our drive from Adelaide to Brisbane with Davidwazza! TFTC!
 
09-Feb-21
Moving from Adelaide to Brisbane, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I decided to drive the long distance to make the opportunity a holiday, taking 12 days and passing through Victoria, New South Wales, and then finally arriving in Queensland. We spent the first few days in SA's Riverland, visiting Morgan, Berri and Renmark; and then drove through Mildura in Victoria. In NSW, we stopped at Hay, Parkes, Merriwa, Tamworth, Port Macquarie, and Coffs Harbour, and then entered Qld to stop for a night in Robina in the Gold Coast.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I travelled from Berri across the Victorian border, visiting MacCabe Corner in the morning. We then continued to make our way east, stopping in Mildura for lunch and completed the *Navigating the River as a Paddle Steamer* Adventure Lab. We then entered NSW, travelling along Sturt Highway and detouring through Euston, back into Victoria via Boundary Bend, then back to NSW to Balranald where we had dinner, and stopping in Hay for the night.

This was our first geocache find for the day while we crossed the border from SA into Victoria. This cache took a few minutes to find, and it turns out that it is a small sistema, not Eclipse mint container (as stated in the description). The logbook was in good shape, but the container lid is starting to become brittle and cracks forming. Thanks Jardry for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Hmm border patrol makes for a hinky find!!!
We pulled over and noticed we had the border police attention so we instantly told them that we were searching for a geocache. Obviously they knew about our hobby and they let us do our thing while they protected the borders against us covid Mexican’s.
Thanks Jardry for the placement.

After the lunch time event travelling with The coffee's we joined the convoy to try and find a way to The five corner club virtual but after wasting quite a bit of time on the wrong roads we were all caching our way back towards Mildura.

We did a few of the old mail route series quite a few years ago now and when we stopped to grab this one it reminded us of how much fun it was to do.
We did see quite a bit of wildlife here in the way of emus and kangaroos but its definitely not the right time of year for the wildflowers. In fact the area was quite sparse of most vegetation and could do with a really good drink.

The cache itself turned out to be a nice easy find as for a change we approached from the right direction and spotted it before reaching gz. Our names were added to the log and everything returned as it was.

Thanks Jardry for the cache.

After a hunt on the wrong side of the structure we changed our attention to the correct side and the cache was found within seconds. Were the coordinates wrong or was it cache creep? It doesn’t really matter as we found the cache in the end. It’s pretty desolate out here. It’s just as well there’s a cache there to add interest and indicate where the turn off to the Mail Track is.

Day 43 of my solo camping trip that had taken me from Adelaide, through Victoria and around Tasmania, then up to Queanbeyan and the ACT for the Clear Waters Mega event, then back to SA via southern NSW. One more day and I should be home.

The weather has held out beautifully and today I made my way from near Mildura up to the northernmost point of Victoria, then down the Border Track.

Its been a great day, visiting some lovely places, with quite a few cache finds and a couple of nice walks.

This cache was visited while travelling southon the Border Track this afternoon.i found the base of the Sistema container brittle and broken in two pieces on the ground near GZ and the lid was gone. I found the logbook nearby - fortunately dry and OK. After signing the logbook, I put it in a new zip-lock bag inside a nee Sistema and replaced it. It should be good for a few more years now!

Thanks Jardry for the cache.

A nice easy park and grab after driving south down the border track.

Systema has a cracked lid, but it is protected by a plastic bag, but could still use some CO TLC.

Thanks for the cache Jardry.

A nice week in Renmark in the van. Some Adelaide symphony orchestra, wine and golf, plus a van site on the river for superb happy (several) hours. Just a bit of time for some caching. Didn't find this one, but hot with lots of bush flies made us a little impatient. Several cars passing didn't help. Called it quits for the day and returned to the Paringa bakery for some foodinstead. Nice pasty with sauce and a tasty beesting. Yum. Tftc.

This cache was found today and brings our overall cache find tally to 10118. We found this as part of our 2018 Round Australia trip.

Found this one on the way into VIC today to find a virtual cache. It took me a bit but I managed the find.

Thanks Jardry for the cache, a name I hadn't seen for a while who I remember from long ago on the GCA forums. I hope you are well.

In Renmark for a family holiday for the week and having the opportunity to grab a few finds with Snap Happy and Happy pant. Up early and today we decided to grab some of the caches up near the South Australia and North Victorian borders, which might require a bit of a walk or 4WD to grab. We discovered some good hides and had no DNF's. As always, there was plenty of laughs and fun had, along the way.

Enjoying driving this border track, exploring the country and grabbing a few find. This was the first one I had done of this series. Will have to keep an eye out for some more as I travel about. It was a quick find once at GZ.

I am currently writing detailed logs because of a challenge provided by Project-GC. "The Author" Badge challenges geocachers to average one hundred words or more in each log. As of the start of 2018 my average was only 47 words per log, which seems a long way from the 100 target. Given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 100 words for a long period of time to get my average to the target. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After over 7000 plus caches (which includes all cache finds up and including yesterday), the average log length is just over 50 words. I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task before the end of next year. It's surprising how much is has increase since doing this.

Thanks Jardry for placing the cache for us to find and doing the maintenance to keep it in play.

Out grabbing a few caches with some family this morning while holidaying in Renmark for the week and we decided to head North and grab a few caches along the border. We were making our way down the track making a few quick park and grabs as we went. This was one of them and it was soon located or should we say both containers were found? Signed the log and continued on our way, found with Happy Feet while exploring the area.

Cache size revised following most recent finder stating that they found the cache to be consistent with a SMALL size rather than a MICRO size. At some stage it appears that the cache container has been replaced without my being notified.

I found this cache today at 4:50pm as number 12 of 15 on our Murtho and Border Run in company with Bazzars. Continuing down the border. Poor old cache owner being grilled on the size of the cache. We found the 200ml Sistema but it was almost entirely buried as the red sand had washed mostly over it. This particular cache hadn't been found for months so some other finder must have put a micro here after not finding the original. There is definitely a small cache in this spot. Thanks from D B-A.

Crossing over the bitumen here to continue our run down the border track. Took a detour up the road to Lindsay point and looped back to the border track.

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

This cache is carrying one or more logs which suggest some attention by the cache owner is needed.

The guidelines advise that the CO should make occasional visits to check on the cache as well as promptly address any logs that indicate that the cache requires some attention. If you can not attend to the issue promptly, then you need to Disable the cache - I have disabled it this time.

Please respond to this situation (or indicated your intentions including a date) by **7th January**, otherwise it will be necessary to withdraw the cache from the Active listing. The [Geocache Maintenance guideline](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable ](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

Whatever the name - Murray Sunset Country, Millewa, Sunraysia or Murray Irrigation Area it is an amazing part of Australia to explore, gain an insight into the lives and times of the pioneers and of course seek out a variety of geocaches.
Ah Ha, the first find on what turned out to be a very interesting drive eastward on the Old Mail Route Road. Not quite the size we were expecting from the cache Size!

Thanks Jardry for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.
