Description
A place to stop and stretch your legs.....
After a few days of caching around Victoria and South Australia, Sol de lune and I were headed east along the Murray Valley Highway towards Yarrawonga, discussing the general state of Geocaching Australia caches in the area. I had collected one of Sdl's caches on the banks of the Murray near Cobram and decided that I should make a contribution while I was in the area.
GZ offers safe parking beside the road while you stretch your legs and grab this cache and maybe another dragonZone too!
(Sol de lune was with me when I placed this cache and will log a find once the first to find has been claimed).

Off on a mid week break with Just a cacher to enjoy the sunshine and follow the river for a while when we noticed that this cache was nearby.
After finding a spot to pull over all we found were the remnants of the old cache so we replaced it with a spare that we had.
Thanks for the cache LuckyL10n.

New container appears to be in place, so cache is all good to go again.
Due to the Needs Maintenance we took a new container to replace the original. Rain was pouring down and we gave the hint and surrounds a good search but we couldn't find it. I had the replacement in my pocket so we left it thinking even if we had found the original the log may not have been in great shape anyway. The replacement could be slightly higher than the previous cache but the hint still applies. The cache is now a chewy bottle. TFTC LuckL10n.

Adout to give it away when I caught a glimps of a bit of plastic. The cache is desperately in need of a new container, Contents are still dry but won't be for long.
I cannot count the number of times I've driven past this cache but been unable to stop. It would easily number in the many dozens.
That all changed today. Today I was in a car, not a bus full of passengers.
A quick find and a cache that will torment me no more.

Travelling from Albury to Wangaratta today, not far by most people's standards but when you're looking for GCA caches it turned into a long day. This one was a quick find with the aid of good coordinates and the hint. TFTC
Found on a work trip travelling back to Bendigo from Wodonga. No time for caching but I just needed a bit of a stretch at this point and lo there's a cache. Thanks for the stop LuckyL10n
Number 2 for today as I cache my way across 3 states.
All in good Nick with the cache.

We found this on the last leg of our 3000k journey, geocaching our way up to, around, and back from the Morisset OZGeomuster. What a great journey.
It was impossible, of course, to do everything along the way, instead we just picked out caches with a lot of favourite points, or those positioned for a stop at least every half hour to be able to get out and walk around, and break the journey.
This was one of the latter. The coordinates were good, and the contents of the cache were good also.
I braved the long grass and ground litter, keeping a wary eye out for fanged critters, but none were encountered.
Thanks for the cache. It was great to catch up with you again at the Mega.

A nice easy find. How I would have loved to turn this one yellow!!!
Thanks D for the strategically placed cache.

Out and about parts of Victoria with LuckyL10n and we dropped a few caches in areas devoid of GCA caches...and this was one of them. Now that the first to find has been claimed, I'll claim my find as well. A neat little spot that should be easy for others to find.
Thanks LuckyL10n...
Thanks LuckyL10n...

From Tocumwal in the Berrigan dragon zone were headed across the Murray into the Moira zone and headed to Burramine to look for this cache. We only had two pozsible dragon zone caches in Moira and we not sure how to access one of them. We were not sure about this one either as it had not been logged.
On arriving near the published coordinates we were a little dismayed to see how long the grass was. As we had seen several very long snakes on the roads today we were hesitant about what we might encounter in the grass at the road edges.
We took our walking poles and after much stamping and thumping we crossed the grass to a beautiful gum where, after a little careful turning of the under storey litter we located the well hidden box. We were pleased and a little surprised to find a blank log sheet so will claim {FTF} at 17:48.
Thanks LuckyL10n for this cache. We particularly appreciate you placing it in a zone that has very few GA dragonzone caches
