Description

This is the next in my Battleships series.  They are not a power trail as they are spread far and wide. It is another cache that I have hidden during Geocaching Australia's winter 2021 game of Battleships. We were camped nearby on the Queensland side of the border according to the signs, so I walked across and noticed the NSW border sign in front of me.  The cache is placed between the two.  So where are you? In no man's land?  More to the point,  the night this cache was placed was the second State of Origin match.  So what are you?  Red or blue?  Good luck whoever you barrack for.

Unfortunately if you find and sign this cache during the game period it won't earn you a chance to "fire"  but it will increase your numbers and provide you with a slight diversion from driving. This cache is hiding in the same type of spot as all the others in this series. If you are travelling south there is plenty of room to park, including a caravan.  However if you are in a van travelling north you may need to park some distance before the cache.  There is a pathtag for the first to find.  Good luck.

When we were deciding which route to take, an unfound cache containing a pathtag at Texas wasn't an unattractive plan. Cool Very appreciative the cache was on the side it was as the other alternative had an active wasp nest. {FTF} at 4.32pm after nine months. A very popular free camp nearby.. enough staying there to rival the population of the town. TFTC and the PT Smittengranny.
