Found after a short search, the hint no longer applies, but cachers signs gave it away when I expanded my search a little. Thanks for the cache minniek

After the drama at the previous Rest Area cache we hoped to make a quick find here but that was not to be. The area had been mown recently and the grass had been pushed up against the fence. Luckily she had taken her walking pole with her for as she lifted the grass around the post she flicked out a sleepy but angry little snake. It wriggled into the grass on the other side of then fence.

We searched out to 15m each side of the post our GPS indicated to be GZ without luck.

Not sure that this one is still there but it may be worth a CO check.

Having completed the nearby series in reverse order, I started heading for home, but couldn't resist grabbing this one first. It must have been a GC cache that I grabbed here before - working to my advantage now that I hadn't involved myself in GCA caches before. Thanks for the cache Minniek. All good here. SL

Hill End and Mudgee weekend April 2018. I set out late on Thursday after a small battery issue. I only stopped once before a night at Bummeroo ford. Friday took me to Orange via many spread out caches between Oberon and Bathurst. I spent the night at Macquarie woods. Saturday started foggy and then warmed up. I was heading to Hill end, and did make it, but I had to give up on the Bridal track due to a rockfall. Late in the evening I did find a spot along the Turon river and the very bumpy northern section of the Bridle trail. Sunday had me finishing the TRLT trail from Mudgee to Gulgong and a few missed ones in tyhe middle of nowhere. The last day was a simple drive home from Sofala. A great weekend !

Thanks

#GA2794 - 10:30; After a busy week of caching with Sol de lune on our 2018 GeoMuster Mega adventure, which took us as far north as Kingscliffe and included many, many stops along the highways and byways there and back for nearly 200 GCA finds, we decided to clear up a few more in the local(ish) area to see if we could break the 200 barrier for the Mega mission. We drove past this one when we left a week ago, but stopped to pick it up today. TFTC minniek

Last day of the Sol de Lune / LuckyL10n NSW adventure. After attending the Morisset Mega, it was 4 day drive up to and return from Tweed Heads grabbing a load of GCA caches along the way. Seemed appropriate to clean out Goulburn on the way home as well.

We started with the series on Mt Gray and then headed around Goulburn picking off a few others before hitting the rest of this series. No problems making this find and our names were soon in the log book.

Thanks Minniek....good to finally grab these ones as well.

Found 5:30pm with girlfriend. These rest areas are so useful and I think life saving their value is probably today underestimated. Signed the log and then onto the next one.
Thanks for the cache.

Thanks, MinnieK!

Came down with alnic39 for a day trip into ACT we had teamMerlin & Splitty Miller JJCC catch up with us before we entered ACT. Had a few caches targeted we got to some but missed others that we didn't get too. The main ones we got were Geocache, Canberra Nature Park, I Dunno and started to collect some of the UGC caches. It got quite warm into the early 30°& most of the caches were in

This was the first cache Al and I got just outside of Collector we turned into the road at Collector and we walked up. It was a quick find

Signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the cache minniek

Needing to stretch me legs on the way home after a long day in Canberra, i pulled in here on the side of the road. Checked my phone in case there was something interesting to find whilst i was here, and spotted this little gem. Imagine my suprise to find there was an *FTF* still up for grabs! Waited for the nearby muggle to finish relieving himself on a tree, then casually swooped in for the find. tftc

GCA 1796. Grabbed this one while - you guessed it - driving from Canberra to Goulburn this afternoon.

Since this is a minniek cache I will not be claiming the first to find. Can't wait for the entire series is out !

TFTC !!
