This is our last day in the Wagga Wagga area and decided to try to get as many GCA caches as possible before we go tomorrow. We'd been in this area yesterday doing an adventure lab so at least we knew where we needed to return to. A quick find in the rain. TFTC
Driving through Wagga on the trip home from the Wang Mega with LuckyL10n and stopped off to grabbed this since it was replaced. All good today and our names were soon in the log.
Thanks for the cache....

#GA5575 - 12:30; Day 6 and the final day of the Wang Mega tour with Sol de lune. After an "interesting" time arranging accommodation in Narranderra, we were once again on the road, with home being our final destination today. After caching our way through to Wagga Wagga, this was our last stop before we headed back to the highway and on to home. Nice to find another oldie still in play. TFTC Rescue-201

Got up a bit late, but went for a drive anyway. We wore our masks near people, and in the petrol station, and waved from a distance at Smittengranny (we think!).
We found some movables and some trigs - the trigs will allow a few shots in the battleship game.
Thanks for this cache, REscue-201!

It was a beautiful warm afternoon so we decided to tackle a few of the Wagga Adventure Labs and as we were walking between labs we noticed we were passing a GCA cache. Had to stop and have a quick look. Spot on coordinates and the clue enabled us to make a quick find. Cache contents had been wet but were dry and useable today.
Thanks for this cache Rescue-201. The view across the lake was spectacular this morning.

First find for me and my son.
Pages are very faded.
Put in larger piece that should last longer.

Our first cache in Wagga Wagga, a place we have never visited before.
Because we had limited time here we chose to grab a few of the GCA caches in the town and return another time for a serious attempt on the other caches here.
As I approached GZ I noticed a whole pile of stuff that may have fitted the clue but fortunately the GPS led me away from those to a single item that looked pretty promising. There was the cache and it actually took longer to get the pieces of log sheet out than to find it.
Bet there are lots of caches around this lake and would have loved to take the bikes off the van and ride around it but just didn't have time today.
Thanks.

Some great caching around Wagga this early morning to end up in the Rock for my special celebration cache for nr 11000. Where has time gone? Was pleasantly surprised by the quality of caches around. Last time I was here I was a bit dissapointed by dnf's and terrible containers, but today it was so much better. Thanks to all the CO's for the placing and maintenance of the caches. Sure going to come back here soon.

There is a CITO on in Wagga today, well I might as well go over to catch up with some cacher friends and meet some new ones. It was great to meet you all. This is also a great opportunity for me to get a new best for the most cache types in a single day. I managed to collect 6 types in this order (Mystery, Virtual, Traditional, CITO, Earth and Multi) and a few other finds. I enjoyed all the unique locations I visited today. I really enjoyed the day and I would like to thank the CO’s of the caches I found and for the fun I had while finding them.
My first of two GCA caches today. As I parked around the other side of the lake I had a nice relaxing walk around to the cache. TFTC

Visited this spot on the way to ParkRun this morning and stopped by to have a look. So this one has been missing a while, so I dropped a cache down at GZ until the CO can do some cache maintenance. Thanks for the cache
No finds or DNF's since Apr 2010????
Well here's a DNF. We looked and looked to no avail. With a few floods over the last couple of years, could it have been washed away??
Thanks anyway

A quick and easy find as the rain had cleared out the muggles. Thanks for the cache Rescue-201

Thanks to winterdragon for alerting us to the GCA caches on this trip - this one was found while we circumnavigated the lake in search of caches and monopoly thingoes.
Last few hours in Wagga before leaving to head back to Tassie.
Lovely view of the lake!

Nice quick find for the first cache of the day on the Saturday of the mega event. TNLNSL, thanks Rescue-201. Certainly a pretty lake that I gather only recently refilled.
Had to spend about 10 minutes picking sharp grass seeds out of my socks from a previous cache, so I didn't mind the prickles too much! TNLN Thanks for the cache
Found by The Empire + H, Sunday 4th April, 2010 @ 1:30pm
After arriving at the Oz Mega Event on Friday, and traveling to The Rock on Saturday, it was time to check out some Wagga Wagga caches! Quickly found by H! Thanks.

As I drove past looking where to park I saw a geocacher run across the road. I watched as he darted here & there before settling & finding the cache. It's all in the description. Then had to wait for some muggles to move on before I went straight to the cache. Thanks.

Pleasant views of the lake - I initially checked the usual hiding place, but the GPS eventually settled at the right spot.
TNLN - Thanks Rescue-201

A few people passing that I had to out wait, but despite a few big fat rain drops, no problems. Albida.

Surprised that this one still existed. Contents in good condition considering that it hasn't been logged in 18 months
Found on a night assault of caching in an area of many probable hide spots.Thanks to Rescue -201.tnln.
Easy find on the Wagga invasion, they dont come much simpler than this,a bit of nearby cover looks like a stalag feature.
Found @ 1027
Hopefully this one doesn't get removed in a clean up, as it is quite a nice view of the lake.
Cheers, Murf.

a good excuse to see Lake Albert we had a previous (Mcphan) just to be sure, but found easily.. being winter not many people in the water today.
This was a bonus cache that I was not expecting to find, but was fortunate that we just happened to be driving by. TNLN TFTC.

Good hiding place.
A shame the lake's full of weed, but, great in respect of the newly abundant bird life.
Took stickers, left roly poly toy.

Found quickly but the large black ants that had included the container in their nest where not very happy.

Quick find. Kayak demos going on nearby - and a good place to be on a hot day trip from Canberra.

Found on a quick drive with a non-caching visitor. There is a few blocks here too...
Took a glo-stick & left a pen holder thingy
Thanks, Roostaman
