Description
Driving this way means you are nearly home
Traditional cache - part of the ACT Puzzle series #1
Car parking S35 13.190 E149 10.774 - Please use this so its safer for yourself and others.
This year I decided to take part in the State of the Nation Game as part of the ACT team and had so many geocachers coming together and having fun looking for and hiding caches. To top it off ACT came first in the game, what a great feeling to be part of a great fun team.
This cache is part of the ACT Puzzle Series No.1. The clue underneath the lid will help lead you to the final cache location in the series. The other caches in the series you will need to find are GA11961, GA11969, GA11970, GA11976 and GA11978.
Once you have found all 6 of these caches, you will be able to find the final cache in the series, GA11959…….which is located at
S35 16.ABC E149 04.DEF.’
Container has log book and pen. Don't forget to look for the code under the lid.

A quick stop off the highway to collect this cache and the information for the final of the series. Thank you Joolay
Nibletricecakes and I found another cache in this series yesterday, so I'm trying to find them all and solve the puzzle this month. After finding a GC puzzle nearby, we wander up here as the light was fading. Thanks to the hint and good co-ords, it was a quick find by torchlight. TFTC Joolay.
GLISS! Had this on her wish list for the day, so we made our way out this evening for some walking in the area. We managed to make the find by torchlight and the sun was sneaking away. Thanks for the cache, and another secret clue.
Having taken a stroll up the hill, I decided to check this one out before hitting the road. The spot-on coordinates soon had me with the stash in hand at 16:55 and with the log signed and clue noted, I was back on my way. 
TNLNSL, noted clue. Thanks Joolay.

Sorry about the generic log Fitzy_1965 but. I have lots of puzzles to solve tonight.
Today I decided to take advantage of the fabulous weather and the May Madness and go caching with the GCA caches in my sight. There were plenty to be had so I planned a circuit up to Gunning and then across to Sutton and home again via the Federal highway service road and onto the highway at Eagles Nest. I had to do a detour via Breadalbane to avoid driving back through a large Road Bike Race but all is well and I had no DNFs but had to abandon plans to try for 2 after grabbing this cache. I just have to work out what this one belongs to and then find the rest of the series. TFTC Joolay SL

#GA3041 - 11:30; Finally stopped off to grab this cache and another piece of the puzzle after grabbing fuel at Majura Park on the way home. Parked well of the road and close to GZ before taking the high road there. Made my way down the bank and found the cache after checking a couple of possibilities. Took the low road back out again after signing the log and noting the information for the final in this series. TFTC Joolay

First cab off the rank.
GPS Bounced around, and I ended up kicking a few rocks down the hill.
However, cache was eventually spotted, signed and then off to the next in the series.

Chooo *FTF* on a lovely Thursday morning! Decided to give these latest caches a go, so planned a circular drive to cover them all. This was #3. Pulled up on the highway, and made a quick find here, but not before walking through a spider web! Thanks Joolay.
