Description

On the Bruce Highway heading towards the Gladstone you'll cross many creeks named ?? Mile Creek.  I'm sure you've seen many of them as you've driven around the country.   

This ?? Mile Creek is 6 Mile Creek.   The cache is available for both northbound and southbound travellers, however is best suited to those travelling north.

The cache is a simple find and simply there to give the Geocaching Australia cacher a reason to stop and stretch the legs.    The cache is on side road, however you only need to pull of the main road and you'll be at GZ.    The cache is a standard hide and should be obvious.

Enjoy the stop and the chance to get out of the car.

We left Mt Larcom this morning and continued our wander collecting some more LGAs. This was our first GA cache for the day. We were able to pull off the highway and were soon adding our name to the log.

Thanks for this cache Sol De Lune. Container and contents were in very good condition. Mrs y'stassie was pleased to find that she didn't have to fight her way through a tangle of webs or fight off ferocious guardians to access the cache. She found this surprising as the cache was last found over 2 years ago.

This was the first of CO's caches that we found today but have logged it out of order. I hope my firing in the Battleships Game is a good deal better than my last. TFTC SDL TNLN SL Cache in good condition. Very HappyVery HappyClan CerberusClan Cerberus

Wasn't actually meant to be on this road as we took a wrong turn at Rockhampton which means we're now taking the busy route to Calliope. An absolute winner when it comes to this cache... roadworks... not the highlight of the trip. TFTC Sol de lune, all good here.

While spending a couple of nights in Mount Larcom we opted for finding caches north and south if our current digs.
We drove via Ambrose, Raglan. Marmor and Bajool before heading to the coast at Port Alma. We then back tracked to Mount Larcom before heading south via River Ranch to Calliope. In total we searched for 18 caches and found 16.

Nice to find a GCA cache hereabouts. Many thanks for the hide SOL DE LUNE ClappingDancing
