Description
Tumblong NSW. A neat little spot heading towards the town. The bridge is off the main highway and there is plenty of room to pull off the road. Then head under the bridge and look under where the road meets the bridge.
The cache is a sistema and you will need to get down low to make the grab....

Found It!
Nice spot. I found this one full of water (it might have gone under in the recent floods). I drained the water out and added a new logbook.

02/02/2020 Souvenir Day Trip!
Umm… what area can I attack this time because I’m very quickly running out of caches to find. After taking a look at the map, I decided on finding the caches between Gundagai and Yass along the Hume HWY. Yes, HWY driving can be quite boring but when the trip is broken up to find caches it makes it a lot more FUN. I also needed five finds for the GCA 2020 February challenge. A few history lessons, unique locations and many different types of hides made the day very enjoyable. The GCA moveable caches I found today have been moved to the above coordinates ready for the next finder. I ended up with 16 finds for the day which is made up of 10 GC and 6 GCA finds. TB visit on all caches. I would like to thank all CO’s of the caches I found and for allowing them to bring joy to me and the rest of the caching community. TFTC’s

Came in from the top - a bit precarious, but found OK. Single sheet log left by previous finder, but container OK.
Thanks,

Found on our March trip around the Riverina district cleaning up our unfound list.
A warm Autumn day for a drive around while camped nearby.
We found the container and log book all spread out around the area.
Put it all back together and returned it to a safe hide again.
My nearby GC cache was once in this location, but it went missing so I had to move it.
Looks like this one might suffer the same fate.

We all made the climb. We probably could have come from above...but that would not have been as much fun...watching geodad slip on the moss!!!

The trick to this one is to climb up on the section WITHOUT moss. TFTC

Another find on my way south yesterday.
A bit of a clamber about the place led to a find, but was sad to find things pretty damp inside the container, the log included, despite its supposedly protective ziplock bag.
Took it all back to the car, dried things out as best I could, but didn't have the time to dry out the logbook.
All the logbook entries can be read, so I returned it sodden to a new bag, and added a backup logbook in its own bag.
A nice spot Sol de lune, with enough challenge to making the find to make it exhilarating!

Time this one had a vititor. It might also come in handy for the summer game.
Cache and contents are in great shape.
Thanks Sol de Lune.

Found on our 2017 Geelong trip. On our journey, we had to make sure we kept supporting the Cerberus cause – hopefully this will bring us closer to glory. Once we parked at the bridge, the cache was quickly found after a short scramble. Nice little spot. TNLNSL. TFTC SdL (go Cerberus)!

As we headed south we stopped to look for this cache. Initially we were reluctant to head down the bank to look for this cache as the water level was quite high . On of us noticed a tell tail sign just below the end of the bridge. On closer investigation the cache was revealed in very good condition. We signed the log with the water lapping at our feet.
Thanks for another interesting cache Sol De Lune

Day five of our month long escape from Tassie. Traveling from Gundagai to Yass today picking up some of the caches along the way. Backtracked a bit to grab this one. TFTC
A touch tricky to get to. I parked below; where it would have been better to park above. Lovely view of the water from here. TFTC Sol de lune.

Yep a nice detour from the HWY traveling south – I call this stop 2 for the $ of 1 visit – completed this cache & a GC close by - TFTC / TFTH / SL

Nice little drive by in a good location. I wasn't actually driving by but it was well worth a quick zoom down the highway from the Tumut turn off.
Rated: for Overall Experience
A quick and easy find, with a sense of deja vu, as I had stopped here for a cache before. At least I got to sign the log in the shade and out of the furnace that was building above. Many, many years ago I was a regular just up the road as I worked on a nearby property. Thanks for the cache Sol de Lune

Out with Just a cacher on an evening jaunt to grab a cache or two.
A quick grab here tonight but the footing was a little treacherous.
Thanks Sol de Lune

Found in the dark on a cool winter evening. It was a bit steep, but team work got us there. Thanks, Sol!

Murry River Victoria 2015. With a weekend away it was time to do some Brass Monkey camping. I am sure I have done another cache just here, at least I did not actually slip while getting it, but it was close !

GCA 1089 - 10786. With the owner heading south when this one was placed as was LuckyL10n.
Waited 2 days for the first to find to go off but alas it didn't, so LL and I signed the log on the way home. Now that it has been claimed I'm happy to make the find.

#GA549; I was with the CO when he placed this cache on our way down to Beechworth for a weekend caching run. I was hoping that the first to find would go off while we were away, but it didn't, so signed the log on the return journey and waited patiently. The first to find has now been claimed, so I'm now logging the find as well. TFTC Sol de lune

With a wet day at work, that only means one thing. A trip down the Hume for some caches.
This one was next on the radar. My shoes and pants were dampened, but not my spirits. Again I found a blank spot in the log book to claim the *FTF*.
