Nearly three years since a find but cache is still there in great condition. Actually spotted this one as we pulled up only 2 metres from GZ.
A gravel road to get here but think it had been recently graded so was smoother than some bitumen roads we travelled today.
Thanks for bringing us to a spot we have never been to before - something geocaching is great for.
Thanks HILBERTS.

As part of a big trip up to the far North Eest of Tassie, can we call that FNET like the QLD'rs do? anyway myself and goose booked a few nights in digs in Branxholm so we could search for more out of the way caches this weekend.
After a short drive we soon pulled up and I spotted the ramp and goose spotted the hide, signed in the rain and replaced
thanks for bringing me here

A wet morning as we started our day, we hoped it would get better. It eventually did but it was still raining here.
The old ramp was quite invisible behind the 2018 real estate sign and vegetation. It took a bit of investigating before we found the cache. TFTC

Would have been plenty of cattle here once to feed the hungry miners.
Spotted and signed the cache but took forever to screw back together with thread so fine.
Many tftc..much appreciated...cheers ST.

Today I had to go to winnaleah go fix a customers tractor, luckily everything went smoothly and I had extra time up my sleeve so as I wasn’t far from pioneer I decided to grab a few caches befor I headed back to work.
This one was a quick find once the named item was spotted. Was not expecting to see a stock ramp in the middle of the scrubby stuff.

Found today after a slight detour from checking up on a customers tractor. If I didn’t slow down I would have definitely found ground zero. Easy find TFTC
#GA4105 - 10:15; I wasn't planning a caching day today, but with double dZ points on offer, I decided to get out nice and early for a quick trip and collect some of the newer caches around the north east, which have appeared since my last visit in some places I'd never been, or had not visited for many years. Collected a couple of GC caches in Branxholm before heading out to the Mt Paris Dam then on to Derby for coffee and a cache before heading along the Frome Road for a couple more, then a U-Turn and headed back and along the dirt roads to Garabaldi and on to Pioneer, caching along the way. This was the last stop as I headed back to Bridport along the Old Port Road. Had fun replacing the cache in a tight spot! TFTC Hilberts

After having the Beechford road to ourselves we were greeted by rush hour on Racecourse Road. We found ourselves in a long line of traffic made up of 4 FWD vehciles, an ATV being ridden by a bare headed male, a very old tractor and several dune buggy style vehicles flying flags. We had been heading to the cache at Bradshaw's Oval but became distracted by the odd convoy and overshot the destination so continued on to Old Port Road and this cache. We stopped at the ramp while our convoy continued on. We were tempted to follow to see where they were all going.
As we had previously found your GC hide here we were able to make a quick find in contrast to the longer one some time ago.
Thanks for bringing us back to this quaint old structure and for the cache Hilberts. We saw several quad bikes being ridden around a sand track just off the road on our way back.
