We missed this one on the way in, and on the way out, so had to return.
Cache was out in the open, lid off, full of water, and contents strewn about.
Managed to open the soggy logbook, find a less wet page in the middle, and left our mark.
Put the wet logbook back into the damp container, but it NEEDS MAINTENANCE please.
Found with AlbyDangles on day Four of the 'Bust' leg of our "Kempsey or Bust" tour.
Cheers, EPs.

I solved this puzzle a few days ago, today we took the opportunity to go grab a few SOTN caches in the area. On arrival at the GZ a quick scout about and the cache was soon in hand. Signed the log and placed the cache back into its hiding place and off to find the next one. TFTC I’m really enjoying completing the SOTN series.

Perfect weather and perfect opportunity to get the kids out of the house for a couple of hours. We turned this into a numbers race. It was Team Kyi vs Team Ash. SO the race begins.
This was found by Team Kyi.
Thanks for this series 2y's we are enjoying the series.

Something that fitted the clue perfectly was spotted as we pulled up here.
Our assumption was correct and the cache was soon in hand.
Was surprised at the very large puddle on the side of the road here. They must have had a lot more rain than we did, or they've had a lot of overspray when watering the track!!
Thanks.

Took the longer way to walk to this cache, and then it took me quite a while to actually find cache.
Found this cache on a 2 day trip to the NW, covering over 1000 kms and finding around 100 caches of both GCA and GC

Solved this series when it first came out and found some on the weekend of the Goat Island events. We made a last minute decision to travel to the coast for the weekend and knocked off a few more today with whitewebbs and Tassie Trekkers whilst in the area. TFTC 2y'stassies
One of the later ones along this road. In the wet area the hint made for a quick-ish find. Log was signed and all was good. Cache replaced and it was back to the car and off again.
Thanks for another one 2y'stassies...

After a busy day and night logging scavenges up to 11.53 pm for the States of the Nation Games I found I had missed logging this cache. I collected a few of the newly published caches and this was one of them, the others will have to wait for another trip. Enjoyed this SOTN series, the puzzles and the tour through the puzzle solving tool boxes. TFTP

After the event on Goat Island we headed off to find this cache as it fitted the criteria for a scavenge. As always accurate co ordinates led to a quick find.

After another day at work it was time to get down to the real business of caching. Had solved some more puzzles after last night's expedition so we set off with a target list. We searched for and found six caches, all FTF's. Found this one with the help of the detailed hint, GPS was unsettled so the hint certainly helped. As we drove by later a dirt bike rider was getting himself set up just near here so timing was spot on again. TFTC and the puzzles
