**Found whilst in Wagga for a couple of nights**
Out and about with The Empire after grabbing a coffee and grabbing a couple of caches before leaving town.
It was great to be back in Wagga. First time I have visited since I served here in the late '80s in the Royal Australian Air Force. It certainly has changed
A good time had by all these couple of days with memories made and laughs had.
A nice quick find was made here. Thanks for the cache HINCO and for highlighting the area. Appreciate your efforts.

It's was a challenge to find it, it was my first find and I had lots of fun doing it 
Tried to get this one a couple of days ago but too many people! Came back today and we were able to find easily! TFTC SL
This one was a good start to the day, a straightforward find that we could drive right up to.
We have now been in Wagga a few days. We have been greeted with beautiful Autumn days with sunshine and clear skies, but the nights have been bitter. The hose to our caravan froze one night!
The caching has been excellent with variety in hides and a wide range of formats. We have been challenged in many instances.
Today we set out on the triangle trail as we call it. What a surprise this proved to be. There was amazing variety in hides and challenges at every turn. Field puzzles, downright nasty hides as well as straightforward ones. We gave our ladder quite a workout, its first real outing, and have resolved to get one or two other TOTTs that would have been handy today. And we thought we were quite well equipped!
Well done Drovers on some magnificent series that combine together. We even gave some favourites which we don't give easily!

A straightforward park n grab. SL, one of the containers requires maintenance, cracked lid, and very wet. TFTH TFTC replaced as found ready for the next geo-adventurers.
Easy find, went after hours due to too much muggle activity during the day. Thanks!
On my way to the start of a nearby power trail and pulled over to grab this one on the way. There were 2 identical containers in the hide, so I signed both the logs. TFTC HINCO
Cache found with TheSkype on the way to one of the power trails north of here. Quick find with TheSkype who walked away with a tow bar which he found in the area. Tftc

Found on a bloody hot day. My partner in crime fully agrees with the temperature. Team OZCAT continues on.
Enjoyed a day caching with Mrs Wackyweedo and the two younger wackyweedos. Our aim today was to reach 100 cache finds by tackling The Drovers caches around the Coolamon area plus a couple more.
Today was much cooler, with heavy rain and winds throughout the day,then moments of sunshine, which meant less chance of coming across snakes!!
Thanks Hinco this is number #98 today

GZ was a hive of activity when we drove through this morning with zero finds. This arvo we return with 97 s to find all quiet, meaning a quick grab. No muggles after hours! Tftc HINCO. Awesome day caching with MrsStevo.
When I was up at Ungarie a few weeks ago and I started the WWW trail I hatched a plan. I knew the rest of my family was going away for the school holidays and so I decided that I would head to Wagga for an overnight trip and try and find 100 caches in a day for the first time. At that point I had collected 50 (and then last weekend I got 54) in a single day, but triple figures was really only possible with a powertrail - and the one The Drovers had set up was worth the effort. So I took a day off work and headed up to make the attempt before everyone gets back tomorrow. Thankfully the weather was not as hot as yesterday so it was a pleasant day driving the blue road grader on the trails north of Wagga.
Up at 5:30 with the first cache at 6AM and by 4PM I had the 100 caches - in the end I got 117 (1 multi, 2 virtuals, 3 earthcaches and the rest Trads - the one solved puzzle was too busy even at 6:30AM). I saw one big Brown Snake, added a couple of birds to my annual list (including Crimson Chats near Gumly Gumly), and saw lots of Caper Whites. Also got plenty of grazes, banged both shins on logs, got a splinter under one fingernail, and suspect I will lose another after dropping a rock on an unlogged Roostaman hide. Climbed a few trees, founds some clever caches and generally had a fantastic time.
I had driven past here this morning but there were a security vehicle camped close enough to be conspicuous. On the way back there were water workers about but on the other side of the main road so it was a quick diversion to grab this one and sign the log. The classic interpretation of the 'park and grab'.
