Full time Nomads, travelling around Australia since 2014. This is our first visit to Swan Hill and there is sooo much to see and sooo many caches nearby, leaving us spoilt for choice. With a good sleep overnight, and it not being quite so hot today, we set off with a target list. Only a few DNF today so the temperature and the rest must have done the job. RazzTFTC Sparra0907 [^]

Quickly spotted, but required a small battle with the container and vegetation to actually access the cache.We dont know what Nebble means and the find did not give us any clues either.TFTC, an interesting find.

We were in Swan Hill to assist with the fireworks for the show tonight and as we had off loaded everything at the storage facility we had a free day to do what we wanted before starting to set up so obviously caching it was.

We were quite happy that the roads were nice and dry and the 2WD is coping quite well. This was the next on our list. We pulled up here being watched by a few cows and a bull that were quite interested in what we were doing. The cache was found nice and quickly but it was a little bit awkward to get the logbook out as the attaching method was a little bit tight but no real problems after we got it to the right position and we happy to say our name is now in the log. It's been many years since we're seen one of these either as a cache or in real life.

Many thanks the hide Sparra0907

Easy to find but very hard to open. I think the mechanism is a bit seized. Good for now but maybe not for long. Tftc

. Unfortunately cable ties broken & so we easily found on the ground, otherwise all good. Log book found & written in. Got new cable ties and hopefully put back near GZ. May need checking.

Find # 9877

Making the most of Holidays and being able to travel. I decided on a 4 day trip that seen me head up to Swan Hill then down via Lake Boga, Kerang, Koondrook, Cohuna, Leitchville, Mt Terrick Terrick NP, Corop, Colbinabbim Rushworth, Whroo and finally Nagambie (then back home to St.Arnaud). Lots of back tracks taken and lots of dust to clean out of the ute. It was over 1250km travelled and flying solo on this trip I had lots of fun finding the caches.

I took a couple more wedges out of my 360Deg “finds from home” map and ticked off a couple of caches that I have heard about that were on my “to find” list.

There was a huge Variety of caches found from bird boxes to Fridges, Wall mountable tool boxes to Eclipse tins, with the odd ammo can thrown in. A couple of head scratching gadget caches chewed up some time but will be memorable for time to come. Numerous puzzles that I had solved i managed to find and I even managed to make good on a couple of DNFs, and add some more DNFs to my list. Even though I was out on my own I still had to use a couple of PAFs to get by. Thanks guys.

Seen this before getting outof ute interesting one.

So far I haven’t had a good relationship with Sparra0709 caches. Most of the few I’ve encountered have eluded me. This was the first cache we had on the map to try on our trip home. I decided to have a go anyway and was pleased to find a fun cache hiding in a great location. I loved it and was so pleased to find one of this CO’s caches.

Easy find, tricky to get to. TFTC

An easy find but another awkward one to get at. In the end I realised that the bit that was open actually had the logbook in it - now gone with the wind. Fortunately I had a replacement.

Great weather to be out and about to the west of Swan Hill, following a cache course set by our fellow Geelong cachers Suscoe. Too dry for slippery roads but not quite dry enough for dust!
We soon had everything in focus here!

Thanks 'Sparra0907' for adding this cache to the gameboard.

Suscoe was enjoying a day out around the Swan Hill area in the very good company of Phetlern.
It was a delightful spring day with clear skies and bright sunshine.
A perfect day for caching.
The country side looked pretty good but it appears dry and the roads we quite solid to drive on.

Thanks to Sparra0907 for this hide.
