After completing some nearby caches yesterday I popped out this morning for a quick walk while the sky was only grey...Quick find and return, nice spot for a walk.Tftc
Couldn't find it. I did see a small black cable tie that would perhaps have had a cache, but I think it's gone.
Taking some time out for some fresh air we caught up with ALL7 for a spot of caching around home. Weather wasn't too great today but it was nice to get out and about all the same. Last one for the day for us... back to the grind stone. Thanks for the hide The Farmers 5
FFLL and i drive around the Canberra for half day today and Weather bit cold and less Sunny... Tks
Found with fitzy_1965 whilst out and about today.We headed back to Wildbark to do these caches today as we were pre-occupied with our wedding the last time we were out this way.Certainly a nice area for a walk. So many things to see.
34,758. Found with minniek as we did the extended Wildbark Circuit after today's CITO.We had only visited Wildbark for the first time during the Capital GeoBash Mega recently, so we kept these caches up our sleeve for another day. Today was a perfect day for the walk around the nice mixture of cache types. This was the also the first time we had done the loop around this pond - and we'll be back for sure ! A quick find once at GZ. Signed the log, replaced the cache as found, then continued on our loop.Thanks The Farmers 5 !!
the gorgeous afternoon weather continues, and so does the cache hunting! this wetland is so cool, and the trees are so eerie.
Here in Canberra for the Mega and we found your cache while exploring the area.We found a variety of hides with varying degrees of difficulty.Enjoyed caching in this area, cache and contents were in good condition.Many thanks to all CO's for your cache placement.
Cache # 11197 on 7 Apr 2024After solving (and not solving) a few puzzles over the weekend, it was definitely time for a meander. After meeting TikvaNZ at another cache, I decided to head into Mulligans Flat for a walk and grab a few caches. I had not visited the Wild Bark centre before, so that was a pleasant surprise! The Wetland walk lived up to its name and my feet were soaked on return to the cafe. Quick find. Thank you The Farmers 5 for the cache and the fun!

Found it! My first time participating so very excited for my first find ??
8th of 16 found today.Out and about with FFP on a warm afternoon to view what they've done with the place. The last time we were in the area there was work commencing on building the water feature nearby. Looks a bit different but disappointing that the houses seem a lot closer. It was a very pleasant if warm sojourn and we did about 8km all up. Cut and paste logs sorry.The cache is in good condition.TFTC The Farmers 5 and the triumvirate
In Canberra for the Mega event. I booked my accommodation almost a year ago, assuming my kids wouldn't be coming... my son, however, was super keen. When we registered, we received our bag of goodies, including the Bingo and Space Hunt. These are normally things that I would not complete. My son, however, wanted to make it our mission.After he had completed the Bingo form, we set out to complete the Space Hunt. We were in the wild bark sanctuary, so we decided to collect the trads nearby. We had a quick find and then spent some time bird watching and reading about the wetlands.TFTC
Im in in Canberra for the mega GeoBash and out on the Wildbark tour this morning. Signed this cache as WBT for our tour group.
I attended an event here the night before and was intrigued by the animals displayed and the impending tour. Tonight was my turn to see what animals could be found on a night tour at Wildbark. Many thanks to our geocache leaders and the professional tour guides. I was part of a group who signed at Tour 2 or something along those lines. It was a cool tour. I can't believe how many cool critters we saw. The geocaches were a bonus. This one was as quick a find as it could be in the dark. Thank you for the smiley and the fun!The day:Today was day 1 of my time in Canberra for the GeoBash Mega and getting to spend time with my friends. Hooray! It all started with a an awesome tour and then Joolay was my tour guide to a lot of other cool caches. What a great way to start off my time here. And the added bonus is spending time with my FRIENDS!Many thanks to all the geocachers who placed and continue to maintain their geocaches for folks like me to find. I know it's not always easy, but know that I appreciate you.
During our weeks trip with Bare Foot Guru, Infoferret and Trinity to the Canberra Mega we logged as a combination of "BFG, CF, BIC, BITC" depending on who we were caching with at the time. The trip took us on a flight to Melbourne first, then a drive to Canberra, followed by a drive to Sydney before flying out again. Where possible I will add commentary to each find about the cache. Thanks for all the caches, hides and effort put into hiding and maintaining them.Signed as Tour 2. Quick find after our attraction to the sign

Thanks for the cache The Farmers 5.In Canberra for Easter to do some geocaching as part of the mega Geobash event and to visit my son. Last minute decision to attend this tour. It happened to be a rather beautiful evening, warm and still. The guides were very informative and it was so interesting to hear about how they have reintroduced introduced quolls (and bush stone curlews) into the area.This was found and signed as WBT1 (Wildbark tour 1).
Find # 8,643 for me on 27 Mar 2024 at 8:25pm. This cache was found on our Canberra Mega adventure.

Found while on the GeoBash Night Tour at Wildbark. We had a great time and a few caches to find made for a perfect night. TFTC
In Canberra with the shop at the Geobash Mega Event. After setting up we headed to the event for dinner and a tour. The food was great and the tour excellent, our guides where so knowledgeable and enthusiastic which rubbed of on the rest of us!We did this one while on the tour and as there were about 22 of us, decided to sign the log as 'Tour 1' to save space! TFTC
I wanted to take a break from house and schoolwork, so I decided to catch the tram up to do some brief cleaning in Gungahlin. Following the wherigo I moved on to this cache. A nice quick find and sign with a lovely view out to the wetland. TFTC Farmers 5!
Out hiding some caches for the mega and decided to finally pick up the final two Wildbark caches out here! This one was the first, it's been a long time since i have been here! In-fact I have better memories of walking through the middle of a dry dam then I do of seeing it have water in it! Thanks Farmers 5, quick and easy here!
I just came out to get some photos for my Geobash Tour, and was, of course, tempted to find one of these new caches. Thank you Farmers5 to add to this area. I have a few more ideas as well. *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*
Very windy but still a lovely place to be here in Mulligans Flat. Geokids found this straight away and we even had some locals checking out what we were up to. Thanks for the cache Farmers5!
I was working for ACT Parks in the adjacent "Goo" park. I access the "Goo" by vehicle through Mulligans Flat. Accordingly I did a couple of small detours to bag these two caches. Lovely container for this one. TFTC.
#4563 A very damp afternoon to head out for these caches. Luckily most of it is on the raised boardwalk. A nice quick find at GZ before heading around through the very wet wetland to pick up Wildbark 4. TFTC.
With another warm day, I headed out for a short walk to try and get the Wildbark caches I had missed due to wet weather last week. l then got caught up in two other caches and made a phone call for some help and ended getting invited on a walk in the Bonshaw Grasslands with Domsky. We managed to reach four caches over a 4.5km walk each way, sometimes on track and sometimes not. We met two groups of Rangers and saw a very impressive native grass propagation facility. I was very happy to get back to the car and home for a late lunch and a big drink of cold water.I made it to this one without even getting my gum boots damp. Plenty of birds about and very sunny out here on the Dam wall.Thanks for the cache The Farmers 545085.1 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & April 2020 Kar the Old A#416**Albida**
Found while attending a tour here. The tour guides knew their stuff and it was awesome seeing it all at night. I love this area. So much to see and so close to town, but at the same time far enough away. This wetlands area has been set up so well. Great walk around here. Tftc!!!
A vreat walk as part of the geobash trial tour, a 5k night walk to spot animals and man we spotted them all! Betong, quolls, glider, possums, frogs yabbies echidna and more! Awesome tour! Quick find, nice cache, all in good order. Thank you The Farmers 5 for putting the cache out and maintaining it.
Found this nice Cache together with Dino and Flintstones. Thank you for putting it out and maintaining it The Farmers 5.
Found on a night time adventure as part of the Wildbark Tour Group after the Christmas event. After all the recent rainfall, the approach to this cache was decidedly soggy, so it was great when our young tour guide volunteered to retrieve the cache given he was wearing rubber boots! A very easy find for the rest of us!! TFTC.
Found on the Wildbark tour - a great night wandering the area with torches looking for animals. I had tried to get to this cache earlier in the day but had called it because there was too much water blocking access. The muggle tour leader went in with their gum boots on and made the find for us. So much fun. Thanks for hiding this cache The Farmers 5 for me and others to find.
Very wet but the tour guide had their wellies on, so assisted, yay! Found as part of the wildbark tour.Attended the event and stayed for dinner and the tour. Loved the enthusiasm and knowledge of our tour guides. They even retrieved the caches that were too wet for the group to get to! It was very wet underfoot in a few places but dry feet around. With the recent rain, the yabby flowing down the roadway was a highlight! Lots of other animals spotted also and a good opportunity to experience the area and learn more about it and the animals.
# 8991 Found while out with the "Twilight Tour" in Mulligans after the Xmas party. We had a great time and saw heaps of wildlife in the dark. Our guides braved the watery depths to retrieve this one and signed as 'Wildbark Tours'.Thanks The Farmers 5
Found at Wildbark Christmas event. [@StylishParasite](https://coord.info/PRJRMT4) and I really enjoyed meeting local gachers, it was fantastic putting faces to names, I am looking forward to doing more activities. The twilight tour was great, really enjoyed it, even though we got home way passed our bedtime (shiftworker family life!). Our trusty tour guides we very gracious in retrieving this one, due to the very wet surrounds it was a bit out of reach for us at this time.
Find # 10629Signed as WBT for the Wildbark Tour. As part of the GeoBash tour, dinner firstly at Wildbark Cafe, then an educational presentation on WOMA python, bearded dragon, and shingle back lizard. Then off on a sunset tour of Mulligans Flat.We spotted a in the road, a spotted quoll, red neck wallaby, sugar glider, a bettong, an echidna, and a yabby of all things. He was swimming up the road so just goes to show you how wet it was. Not raining at the time but had been raining the past few days with some good rainfall tallies.This was indeed a group find! Thanks so much for the many caches The Farmers 5 and of course for giving me a reason and incentive to get out here, and to experience this part of the world in a different light
Ably assisted by the gum boot wearing wildbark staff member. Props to him for navigating the substantially more water filled creek. Logbook signed with the wildbark tour or WT or WTM to save space. Thanks The Farmers 5 for the hide

#19037 - 11:28:00 AM; Arranged to meet up with some fellow cachers in Braddon and collected a couple of caches on my way there. After the mission was completed, I collected another couple in the city before heading for home. I still needed a couple of finds for a current mini-mission I'm working towards, so stopped off for this one to wrap up the mission. No problems making the find once I arrived at GZ and my name is now in the log. TFTC The Farmers 5
