Description

A simple gadget cache for the July Game of Games 2020.

The Flinders River, at 1,004 kms in length, is the longest river in Queensland. Starting on the southwestern slopes of the Gregory Range (160 km west of Charters Towers) it flows west past Hughenden and Richmond, then north to enter the Gulf of Carpentaria.

The cache is a camo coloured bison, about film canister size.

Congratulations Tassie Trekkers - FTF

We were out and about early this morning due to a warm 35 weather forecast.

We looked and were about to give up when I gave a 3rd pass of inspection and came up with the goods.

The river is very dry at the moment and if I was a get down and dirty girl I could easily make sand angels as a friend of ours has done in the Todd.

TFTC 2nd TF so far from home.

See you at QOGM GEONO

Passing through Hughendon we couldn't resist trying our luck here. Accurate coordinates led us to several options and Mrs T chose the winning post.

A great hide that we enjoyed finding. An added bonus of a Dancing *FTF* Dancing @ 10am. After finishing our fishing we wandered back to the picnic area and enjoyed morning tea in the beautifully kept park.

Many thanks geono for placing this cache and highlighting this location.

Went looking for this cache today . After spending 15 - 20 minutes searching we gave up. GZ is in the middle of a grassed area 5m from a fence, 5m from a power pole and 15m from the nearest tree all of which we searched. Brick WallThinkSad
