Looked around for a while but still did not find the cache. Used the hint and help from previous finds as well. Will come back another day to see if we can find it. Very busy day with cars going back and forth with the country music festival beginning.

There are new Guardrails all the way on both sides so the cache is not exactly where it was but luckily enough we found it in the gravel on the ground. We put it about where the coordinates show. Photo attached. TFTC
I came out to buy stuff for dinner and, well, you know how it goes Parked nearby and scooted over t GZ for an easy find

A nice stop on our journey across the country from Adelaide to Brisbane with Davidwazza! TFTC!
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 Merriwa to Tamworth. It was a pretty bad weather day, with continuous showers of light to heavy rain, but we attempted to make the most of the day. We travelled via Denman, and then proceeded north stopping at Muswellbrook for lunch. We then drove through Aberdeen, Scone, Murrundi, Quirindi, Werris Creek, Duri, and Warral, arriving in Tamworth in the later afternoon. Several of NSW's LGAs were visited during our travels today.
We had to pass through so many webs to get to GZ, and also the wet plants in going through didn't help either! At least the cache was a quick find, however there was water inside the cache container, and the logbook was drenched. This container type probably isn't the best to use. Thanks Whitey Wiskas for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

heading into the area again for a one nighter as we are heading back to see the grandies at Gilgandra this time via Narrabri picking up this trail as we head from Quirindi which was my mothers and her parents stomping ground thanks for the Cache
Found at 2:13 PM GAFF3 at a distance of 14 metres
Trying not to touch any of those infuriating seeds and searching for a cache in a large area with a hint that is not much help was a challenge indeed [B)]
Thanks Whitey Wiskas.

We're heading home today after a great long weekend caching in Tamworth, deciding on heading down the 'tourist route' through Quirindi (more caches this way anyway!). We managed a clean sweep of all the caches that were there, including a pair of GCA virtuals. Thanks to all the CO's who provided so much for us to do whilst out here. We'll be back.....
I'm still picking farmer's friends out of my pants/socks and shoes after this one! TFTC!

Tamworth and Amrmidale Trip March 2020. Day 3. I headed north with Fitzy_1965 along the New England Highway towards Tamworth. Today we headed out to do caching trails around Tamworth to the North. The day was mostly roadside caches, but they were all of differing levels of challenges, especially when you have to deal with Farmers Friends and Stinging Nettles at almost ever cache.
Thanks.

20,498. Found with albida33 during a meander up to and around the Tamworth and Armidale regions.
Day 3 of our trip. Headed out after breakfast for what turned out to be a big days caching. We aimed to hit some of the trails around the region. Next stop of the day, and we came up with a quick find. Signed the log, replaced the cache, then headed off to the next one.
TFTC Whitey Wiskas !!

Slowly heading home. Left Uralla this morning heading for Mudgee.
Bettyboo3747 and I collected occasional caches along the way.
A short walk across to the hide, at least it got us away from the traffic.
Thanks, Robmc.

#16817. Our second day on the road with the new camper travelling homewards from Uralla to Mudgee. A long day - smoky and the land is so dry and desolate and soul-destroying. Gathered a few caches along the way as they popped up on the radar.
Over the road we go again. Cache soon found and names added and we continued on our way.
Thanks Whitey Wiskas

While camping in Tamworth with my geodog Scruffy, we just had to get out find a few of the new caches in the area ...
All Good .. TFTC ..

We were driving to Orange and stopped for this park and grab. It was a very busy road. TFTC
We were heading to Orange for the weekend & this cache was a convenient stop & leg stretch for the kids. Quick find & jump back in the car. But watch out for the cobblers pegs - we were covered in them! TFTC.

There is such a wonderful selection of caches around this area and this was one we targetted and found. We were impressed that caches were not missing and were well maintained. Thanks to Whitey Wiskas for hiding this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.
Heading inrto Tamworth to work closer to the next milestone. Out with Liz & Bruce who are working on their own milestone. cool start to the day

Travelling from Gulgong to Armidale and collecting a few caches along the way. Thanks so much to all the COs for your time and effort in making and placing these caches as well as making this drive a lot more interesting. Happy caching!
Travelling from Gulgong to Armidale after a stay in Sydney for 2 weeks. I apologise for the generic log, however due to the number of caches found, it would take me ages to do individual logs. To the CO's thank you for placing the caches in the spots you have. Enjoyed this part of the country and will probably be back in this area in next couple of months after the Mega Event in Queanbeyan in April. TFTC.
This was a fun, quick find. On the way home from Church. Found a coin, stamp and frog. Took nothing.
Replaced the log. It is hard to understand how it got wet. It is a tight seal.
Log was wet, I replaced with strip of paper as didn't have proper log.left log to try out nearby for reuse and replace by nxt finder hopefully,tftc
Hi there Whitey Wiskas.
Today was a drive from Tamworth to Duri, and then out to Lake Keepit, logging caches along the way. The caches we found were all well placed, and the for the most part had pretty accurate coordinates. We can see that a lot of thought has gone into the placement of all the caches we found today.
All up we found 23 caches & DNF'd 0 in this cache run. Thanks for placing the caches. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places while we meander around Australia.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found this cache around 5m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** A gold coin.
Regards
Ian & Penny.

It was good to find such a variety of caches & hides along the way.
