Barmah Town Supply Barmah, Victoria, Australia
By gregandjudi on 14-Dec-12. Waypoint GC42VQE

Letting this spot go for now

Will attend over the weekend

Haven't forgotten this cache, replacement being arranged

ordered a replacement

This one will require replacement which will occur in the new year

The river is up, and may be for some weeks. Many roads are impassable even with a 4WD.

Large maintenance run planned for when the river goes down. Some caches may have floated downstream, others innundated and some should be high and dry, just T5 at the moment.

We do not recommend any flooded caches be accessed by boat at this stage, or to attempt by 4WD. It would be good if the roads had a chance to dry out before getting chewed up with high clearance vehicles.

Easy find

I couldn’t find it so we get back

Accidentally clicked found it.

This is one of the most awesome caches.

My gosh.. this was best ever find

hidden in plain sight

TFTC

Tough one in the dark without internet, so only knowing the GPS and that was jumping all over the place. Very happy to get this one.
On a road trip from Perth to Canberra with a few side trips for LGAs. TFTC

Thanks

We looked but we couldn’t find it

Staying out at Morning Glory Resort for a week with some family and we decided to head out to Picola Pub for lunch, stopped in Barmah for a few caches before lunch and then a few in Picola after lunch before heading into Barmah Forest for an old multi treat
Spotted this familiar hide as I was walking over to look, noice!

TFTC gregandjudi. Off to see the North Eastern Silo Art structures today. Taking a little stop and found your excellently placed cache. Jimmytherat with Noelle04

Thanks gregandjudi. Great spot for a cache, noticed something I’ve seen before & soon in hand. Took a couple of nice pi’s before heading on to Picola for the silo’s. First time across any boarder since February 2020found with Jimmytherat.

Was going round in a few circles! Great spot

Slippery hill but it looks at you

Found it

Found on our way to Sealake checking out the silo art trail

As we approached the intake pipes of the Barmah Town water Supply we saw something very familiar. A little exploration and the cache was in hand. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks gregandjudi for the cache.

Tricky cache, but eventually got it. Lovely spot. TFTC

Log needs renewing

Staying at a fantastic farm property nearby and decided to find some caches after a long Covid hiatus. Such a cool one to start with - thank you! TFTC

Ready to be found

Back online when the government allows us to travel again.
Stop Covid 19, Stay Home, Stay Safe

Out for the day and we thought we’d get a few caches. Nice quiet spot to stop. Quick easy find. TFTC ️

Now the restrictions are eased, putting caches back on line.
Enjoy, and remember to sanitise regularly.

A Beautiful view and a well hidden little find. Took a while and a browse through the finds until we realized it was looking us right in the face.

Staying in Echuca for a few days, after having lunch with a friend we decided to drive out to Barmah to collect some smileys, we were about to leave and I took notice of something, yes there it was, how did I just overlook that Tftc gregandjudi

Heading off further along the road today and the caching goes on with ilook4geo. This was a nice quick and easy find. The log was duly signed and all was put back as it had been found. Thanks for this cache placement go to gregandjudi.

It was a fun time doing some caching with goingplaces2. This was a really good cache to find as the camo was well placed. Both names were added to the list before we moved on. TFTC.

Sad

Found today with the Joolay after attending the St Arnaud Mega
Lovely views of the river
TFTC gregandjudi

Totally read the logs. Sneaky cache but beautiful spot.

Up in St Arnauds for the Mega but now it’s time to head back to Canberra. Found with Kittykatch on the road trip home.
Unless otherwise stated cache is in good condition.

Hey hey, good one Agree, reed the notes & yes it's "lookin ya" Cheers & tftc

Came down here after very interesting Kingfisher 2 hour ecology cruise and walked around the streets of Barmah to find this one. In good condition. Read the logs everyone. TFTC gregandjudi. Found 30/9/19 3:31 pm. Cache 1760 for us.

Found and logged using the Cachly app for iPhone.

It’s a P5 w magnetic good luck

Good quick find.

Searched a little but in a rush. Will try another time

We tried, hint helped, but didn't find it.

Quick find for the day. But chilly by the river. Tftc

Nice quick find for the day as we pass through town. A bit cold down here today TFTC

Too many muggles around to retrieve so I just admired the view

Found on the ground. Returned it to where it was supposed to be.

Thanks for the cache gregandjudi.

Didn't look for long and didn't find it TFTC

A but of circling and shut of lateral thinking had the cache in hand in a few minutes. I had a similar cache that took a lot more circling in Dubbo - TFTC

today i drove from barham to barmah and did some caching on the way. this one had me seacrching for a while and i almost gave up when i had the right idea. cheeky one, very good! TFTC!

Found a similar cache in Echuca several months ago. A nice find on a beautiful day along the Murray River bend at Barmah. Found by Monique and with a little help from Des

Gah! Looked high and low in between tossing a stick to keep the dog entertained, but couldn’t find a single thing. Will have to come back

Our caching group of 7 today contained the whole gamut of required skills, from youthful enthusiasm to the wisdom of the aged. It was middle aged combination of these 2 skills that won out. I love the camo that screams out "come and look at me." Thanks

Oooooooo nasty. Never seen one like that before. Not what I expected. I think terrain should be at least a 2

The team are picking up a few on the way home from Barmah National Park. This one worried us for a short while, with 7 sets of eyes on the prize. But we got there!
Thanks heaps, Gregandjudi

Out with the grandparents and kiddos for some quick caching during the holidays. TFTC first one of this kind we’ve come across.

Found on the way home from our fun road trip with my Clarmensma family - becca85, GemmaSistema, neisha07, Ad & Luke. We had a great trip and visited some cool places and caches. TFTC!

Yay for school holidays and Clarmensma road trips!
Found with becca85, GemmaSistema, boo09, Ad & Luke on our way back home. TFTC

Stamped or signed as 'Team Clarmensma' AKA myself, GemmaSistema, neisha07, boo09, AdamSistema & LukeSistema.
School holidays yet again and we thought we'd stay the night in Echuca. It took us about 6 hours to get there from Maryborough and about 13 to get home.

A fun trip with only minimal rain, a handful of DNF's, some previous DNF's that are now smilies and 7 cache types found over the 2 days.

TFTC

We all started searching but becca85 made the find here.

Today was day 2 of a 2 day road trip with Team Clarmensma (GemmaSistema & becca85 and our 4 geokids - neisha07, AdamSistema, boo09 & LukeSistema). The Sistema crew left Echuca and caches our way via Moama, Barmah, Picola, Yambuna, Koyuga, Nanneella, Rochester, Burnewang, Elmore and Bendigo before heading home via Maryborough to drop off the 3 girls and finishing at home in Ballarat about 11pm. We had plenty of finds, a few DNFs and heaps of laughter and fun as we cached along back roads, through tiny towns, around and across across amazing rivers with stunning scenery wherever we went. Thanks so much for putting this cache out for us to find and enjoy. We really appreciate it.

Lovely rivers views. Gets a fav from me TFTC

Good hide only ever found another like it

I needed to find a cache today with the word Bar in it, so this one was ideal. It is part of the G A GeosportZ Commonwealth Games Challenge, and I appreciate your having placed it here for our entertainment. So glad the weather picked up this arvo from the miserable downpour earlier, however we really need rain, so I shouldn’t complain.

A lovely river bend

*29/10/17, Found @ 1:12 pm, Find # 7266.*

After a bit of caching around Echuca and Moama it was now time to head for home but there is no such thing as going straight home as I made a bit of a loop around and while I was going passed I stopped at this one for a look.
I started looking in the wrong place at first even though I had seen the cache before hand, it just didn't register that this was the cache at first but then I took notice and had a look and signed the log.

**Thanks to gregandjudi for placing this cache.**

We logged a find here some 18 months back, so had an idea what to look for.
Seeing 4/5 recent logs are DNF's, perhaps the listed DR of 1.5 needs a tweak.

Satellites today had our GZ 7M N of where we found the cache.

Suscoe and Phetlern headed out nice and early today for a terrific day of caching in this area of the state.
It was a magical Spring day, so much sun, a few clouds, a gentle breeze and great company to be with as we headed around the roads.
We had done our preparation, planning the order of caches, sorting out puzzles and printing the multi pages.
Lunch on the road and fair weather, caches to find: what else could you ask for.
Thanks to gregandjudi for this hide.
A quick find on the river bend.

Cache has suffered a little cache creep but still within acceptable distance

Searched high and low, at exact coordinates but couldn't find it

Looked for a while but just couldn't see it at all. Will try another time when in the area

Spotted it quickly. Replaced log sheet and SL at 4.33pm #4654 TFTC gregandjudi

With my Westie Besties Maggie and Mollie and help from our Carer Lis Brown on our trip from Shepparton to Mildura.

Drats. Sure we were close but just couldn't find it!

was never missing

Hard but very fun

Looked for a long time with 4 kids and we gave up.

Opened my eyes and saw it. I really like these ones too. TFTC. Beautiful stop.

Found holder but no log to sign, bit past mushy! But what a view! Took photo to confirm my visit. T4 bringing us here

I was on my way from Melbourne to Deniliquin...and taking advantage of a not-quite-the-fastest route which ended up taking me through Barmah...a part of Victoria I had never found my way to before. To mark this little bit of (personal) new territory, I decided that a cache or two was in order. This was the second cache I stopped for...and almost immediately spotted the log holder. No log though...it has gone through the mushy pulp stage and has now dried out into something barely recognisable.

Thanks gregandjudi for the cache...but it is time for a little maintenance.

Took a bit of searching but we finally got there. Log is wet as and in need of replacing and a plastic bag to keep it in

When Fergzter was a bit younger than he is today he did a bit of work in Environmental Science and did some research with town water supplies so this had a bit of interest for us. After studying the nearby water facility we made a quick find. The log needs some love alas. We managed to smudge our name in the mushy log but who cares about a soggy log with THAT VIEW!!! Wow. This is Australia for sure. After a road side coffee and biscuit break we were on our way after 20 minutes. Thanks for another cache Gregandjudi.

Found it. Very wet log

Hi Katie and Gracie I went and look for that also but it's not there I wonder where it is

I think it has been moved because we have found it before but it wasn't there this time!!!

Last time here I thought I hope we never come again but E does not give Ap so today he signed the log thanks for the challenge. It is all good fun

10:16:00 AM. While I was looking in one spot the better half saw the cache and pointed me in the right dirrection. Log signed. Log could do with a bag as is damp. We didn't have one small enough with us. Thanks gregandjudi for placing this cache.

Sewthat, muggle partner, Brodie and I went out to find 2 caches that Sewthat and I hadn't been able to find recently.
We also stopped at a garage sale and blow me down if it wasn't at the house of a local geocacher, Needle in a..., whose Picola alphabet series I had enjoyed doing recently
I was even able to share a hint on one of those two caches with her

Unless mentioned otherwise, please know that your cache and log book was in good condition.

Finally got back here to find this cache and oh boy...do I feel like a newbie!
I'd looked at that, thought how it didn't seem quite right and just did not click that it was the cache!
Considering I've found quite a few of these in my time, I cannot understand what part of my brain was not working on our previous visit!
Still, it's found now and so there will be no blue sad face to haunt me at that spot anymore
We enjoyed the scenery again and I got to show muggle partner the shape of the river

I blew into town at first light to hunt down a ftf on another cache published in the wee small hours of the morning. Reeling with the joy of my little victory, I decided to gorge myself on everything else Barmah had to offer a hungry Geocacher.[^]
My little banquet of caches was sliding down easily until I arrived at this little dish that stopped me in my tracks and made me sit up and take notice.
I searched high and low, over and under,peered around and through but nothing made sense and my poor GPS was copping a bombardment of verbal insults.
Then it happened, the epiphany, that Eureka moment when you see what can't be unseen and you no longer feel the need to use expletives in the same phrase with the CO's name.
A minute or two on front of the car's heater vents and the log was signed and returned warm and dry with the cache ready to make another fool out of the next unsuspecting geocacher.[:o)]
TFTC gregandjudy, a delightful and rewarding challenge.

Sewthat, Brodie and I headed out caching but instead of ending up in Picola to finish the alphabet series we travelled some back tracks and ended up in Barmah
We found 3 out of the 4 caches in Barmah (DNFd the 4th ) and enjoyed sightseeing around the town while doing so

DNF! We looked for about 20 minutes but still didn't find this cache
Hopefully i'll be back to remedy this one day

TFTC gregandjudi

A quick find when I actually opened my eyes and had a proper look! TFTC

Thought it was time the whole family had a camping caching holiday.

Being a long weekend and with 3 caching events on in Echuca, we are staying at Wakiti Creek Resort. (managed by caching friends)

Out in Pat the 4x4 (huge Tb on back Window if you want to discover us) having some fun.



TOOK: nothing
LEFT: nothing
CACHE CONDITION: log damp.

We found this little guy while were out and about in an area of Victoria we have not explored before. We are thinking the locals will be trying to muster tourists to the area now. Bumped into maccamob again and found this one together.

Our thanks to gregandjudi for bringing us to this location.

Log is damp = container not waterproof (plastic bab gone) - and needs some CO TLC - perhaps it's about time for the CO to make a maintenance visit on this one!
