Ducked out with Newy07 this afternoon to find this one before it got dark. Log sheet was damp. Wiped out ziplock bag and container and replaced in a way to hopefully minimise further moisture getting in.
Very cool cammo!
TFTC Whitewebbs!

After changing our route this morning we decided to look for a few more caches in this area. After recent rain it was a little wet and muddy in the pull over area so we spent time deciding on the best way in. We ended up going back up the road a few metres and cutting back to the bush once passed the mud. We spotted an object that was worth searching and found another beautifully crafted Whitewebbs container. Log was safe and dry.
Thanks for this cache Whitewebbs. It was very quiet here this morning. It is always good to have a safe parking spot nearby.

After a first to find over the river we swung over this side to pick up a couple more caches.
Nicely crafted!

The bush is a bit ordinary, but the hide was really nicely put together.
Thanks!
Thanks!
"Hello whitewebbs thank you for the cache.
We had just finished our 4WD trip along Jefferies Track and White Timber Trail with MrsD, EeePees, Lil Raffa and rld4963.
The cache was easily found and the terrain was a doddle compared to what we had just been through.
I must admit it was nice to be able to find a cache today. Ha Ha Ha Ha.
The company was fantastic and we all had a great time getting to your cache.

hi whitewebbs, thanks for the cache!
Found today with AlbyDangles & MrsD, Lil Rafa & the geoGSP, and rld4963.
We'd wandered around a bit before AlbyDangles pointed us in one direcfion, perhaps to distract us, as he then he found it a bit further away.
We were on a 4WD adventure along Jeffrey's Track from Lachlan, then White Timber Trail, and on to Judbury.
We found the 2 Black Glen caches first. A bit further on, rld4963 felt that AlbyDangles needed to test out his new winch and so parked unceromoniously in a deep slippy muddy hole. A successful and well thought out extraction ensued, but apparently not enough winch testing was done, and soon the 2nd vehicle had to winch itself out of the same hole. A bit of fun all round really, but the only drama of the day (well, except from slippy dips and soggy socks in the Lachlan River at Black Glen!
The next cache was at the EastWest Junction, where we enjoyed a lesuirely coffee and yummy muffins. (Wow, only 8 finds here in over 6 years; but 11 after us today).
The drive out along White Timer Trail was spectacular, and just a little remnants of snow were spotted along the way beside the track, and 3 black cockatoos led the way at one point.
Unfortunately the rain (albeit expected) set in as we headed on towards Billy Brown Falls for Bob Braggs cache. Whilst in the carpark at the start of the walk, we made the decision (in heavy rain) to defer the walk for another day so as to make it enjoyable. All good, its another reason to return and a 4WD is not really required to get here from Judbury.
We stopped for our picnic lunch out of the rain in the BBQ shelter at Judbury.
Then it was onto here, and we're now heading to Ranaleagh for coffee.
A great day with excellent company, and of course thanks to the drivers, and the excellent geoTourGuide, AlbyDangles.

Hi whitewebbs
After a bit of a drama at home yesterday, an early morning rise saw a new cache notification near home
Out to the area; a small wonder through a bit of bush soon had me at GZ
The cache was seen quickly and the log signed with a Sainting at 0757 hours
Maybe more beauty sleep was in order and necessary but this cache provided more fun
This was NOT a case of the early bird catches the worm; BUT the early bird gets the carcass!
Loved the container
Thanks for the *FTF*
TFTC and cheers
