Sadly this has disappeared and as I can not get over the border it can not be replaced.
Accurate coordinates and an exposed cache led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. We protected the cache better before we left. Thanks mogni and Peter for the cache.
While staying in beautiful Dunkeld for a week we decided that a day caching and touring around Hamilton was in order.
A nice, quick find and sign here.
Many thanks for the hide mogni

The excellent co ords made for a very quick find, so glad as this road was so, so busy. Now on to the next cache. Thanks to mogni and Peter.
Hi there mogni.
We arrived in Hamilton around lunch-time, and as the day was still young we chose a nearby cache and followed a sort of "next closest" route and cached until we eventually found ourselves back where we started.
We found 7 caches & DNF'd 0 in our cache run today. Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places while we meander our way around Australia.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Nothing.
Regards
Ian & Penny.

After a pit stop for lunch we are back on the road for a few more caches. A quick find then we retreated back to the comfort of the AC.

Travelled down from Horsham to do a bit of geocaching south of the Grampians. I found this one while in the area. TFTC.
We needed to pop over to Hamilton to visit a sick friend of Mr Morris. We left the caravan at the delightful Dunkeld caravan park and travelled across both days.
A nice quick find.
Thanks for adding to a terrific weekend mogni

I grew up backing onto a railway line and understand the draw that trains can have on some people, especially older trains. It would be good train watching here if not many people know about the location. The cache was placed in the type of location I prefer with no need to bend over, but the grass is getting long and you’ll have to wade through it soon. There was wheat growing in the adjacent paddock instead of canola. There’s generally more paddocks of canola around here than wheat. It looks healthy too.
No worries about muggles just small hailstones. Now the sun's out. Cache happy in its hideaway. Tftc
On my way to Hamilton for a couple of days caching and stopping for a few quick finds along the way and taking in the local sights.
After checking into the caravan park to sort out my nights lodgings ( and a well earned shower after a Grampians hike and a local kayak cache) i had time for a few more caches before it became dark and then a spot of dinner.
A nice quick find here today, tftc.

A solo roadtrip through the South West, exploring the countryside.
A nice easy pick up to start the day with. Thanks!

Found by Mary & David at 0930. Did some cache maintenance in Coleraine and Casterton yesterday, so stayed in Hamilton last night. Wonder if we'll see you in Alice Springs? Thoroughly enjoying these country roads, fat sheep, and magnificent gum trees. Found after a quick search. Our thanks to mogni.
Nice easy find! Be careful of snakes on hot days! Prime snake territory in the long grass!

After leaving Hamilton, I was now heading towards Creswick but there were a few caches to be found between here and there, this was one of them.
A quick stop and a quick find was made here.

We were In Portland for the eight months to the mega event which also meant that we could get some caching in with SuperPop and this was our sixth cache for the day after the event.
In our younger days we too were train enthusiasts of the model variety and had quite an elaborate layout of HO guage but with no trains here today to keep us interested we simply followed the needle to gz for a nice easy find and sign.
Thanks for the cache.

Day One of our holiday, BettyBoo3747 and I headed towards Hamilton. Straight off night shift for me meant that BB did all the driving. I did wake up for all the caches though (and lunch!)
Up and over the railway line then stop at the first likely hide. Fortunately, the grass was just low enough for us to spot this one.
Thanks, Robmc.

#11542. Day 1 of our holiday heading towards South Australia. Today it was Melbourne to Hamilton via a lot of caching stops. Robmc was just off night shift so dozed between finds while I did the driving. A good day of some interesting hides and 26 smilies added.
A relatively quick park, find and sign and on we went. This one should actually be called a micro rather than a small.
Thanks mogni

As I jumped out of the car to look for cache, the NZ Oz family told me to look out for snakes. Geocaching is a very different experience this side of the Tasman! No snakes in sight but I still took care. Was a bit more concerned about spiders but too hot for them in the mid day sun. Tftc
A quick park and grab on a windy, wet Saturday. Thanks for the cache and getting us out of the house despite the miserable weather.
We were a little bit railroaded by this cache in that its container was so exposed for all to see as they drove nearby. It's now been placed in a slightly less obvious location, still at the same coordinates. TFTC
1 of 26 caches found today while doing a 470 km solo run around Western Victoria.
Water laying around everywhere!
Nice, easy and straight forward. Why can't more caches be like this??

3rd find of the day caching with LumpyJRB on our way to Portland. A pretty obvious hide on approach to the GZ meant we signed and were on our way quickly. Thanks for the hide.
