Description

High and Dry this time

Caching has taken me many interesting places, little nooks and crannies around the place, and I try give back by following the maxim that a cache should live in an interesting place, or at least a nice place... I don't always achieve it.. but I try :)

Though this cache follows that maxim in two ways

1. Recycles the container from an old Cache that I adopted, fixed up, then archived, on GC.. that ultimately was in a boring spot and;
2. Takes you to a nice hill looking over Gungahlin. There are a few hills like this around, with better views, but I like this one for some reason. Thus a cache should exist here

There's a nearby GZ for a GC multi, and you are surrounded by at least 3 or 4 GZs for challenge caches.. so you may be coming here for the umpteenth time, or maybe, just coming for the views

At any rate - Find the cache. Enjoy the view.

I was out in Gungahlin doing the new Adventure lab, and I headed up this hill to get a traditional cache, I had not noticed it qwas a GA till I went to log it. Oh well, i'll find another as well.

Thanks

Found on a great long bike ride to and around Gungahlin. This a nice hill and good to see a physical cache on it, thank you andrewbt! And thank you for maintaining it. (the since seems to have changed to a small Wink made me be wonder for a split second as I wasn't looking for this size)

On a hike with Gliss! Collecting caches before our palandromic events!! So glad the cool breeze has kicked in tonight after the epic heat of the last few days. A nice fast find at GZ. Thanks for the cache!

On a lengthy caching maintenance mission that took all my GCA Trad, Podcache & Mystery hides today

Have swapped the cache to something a bit easier to conceal. Cache on!
 
An easy find. Nice views from here.

For some reason known only to download quirks this wasn't on our GPS. So what a bonus for us (not the cache) when roaming around Ngunnawal Ridge to see a cache container laying out in the open with a GCA log inside. Signed the log and replaced the cache where the next person won't have quite as easy find as we did. TFTC andrewbt.

Over this side of town so headed up to grab this one. Today was the last day I needed to fill on the calendar for the Molten Solstice so was keen to make the find. Once at GZ all was good and the cache was soon in hand.

Thanks AndrewBT.....some neat houses up this way.... Very HappyVery Happy
