Nice fast find on this one. Phew!! It has been a lovely little adventure but the cold is starting to set in. Thanks for the cache.

A quick find. Another Battleship shot. TFTC

Travelling from Griffith NSW to the coast I decided to stop in Yass for a bit of Geocaching. My focus was Sui_001 and GCA caches. I spent so much time on Sui's I didn't get all the GCA ones I was hoping for. Unfortunately I have my caravan attached again now so can't really geocache today (20th).

I enjoyed doing a few quick easy ones with the GCAs. Thanks.

With the country going into lockdown & meat / chicken / rice & dunny paper in short supply I figured it was time to go for a caching run & drop of some movables & complete some caches, needed to clear my head as job insecurity is of real concern & I had enough of the bullshit – so cache on – this was the 13th 1 completed after dropping off the movables. I very much enjoyed your caches today & the drive that it provided – many thanks for showing the area to me – cache found nicely - TFTC / TFTH / SL

With a day off in hand, I wanted to take the opportunity to go caching which had been decided a few days ago. This morning, I opened up my emails and I noticed that there was a new cache which oddly didn’t have any finds on it. What was even weirder, this new cache is in the heart of FTF hound country. Given I was already planning on caching in that area, I thought I would change up my driving route, so I could give myself the best chance of make the FTF. I knew I had about 2hrs of driving to get to GZ, so I drove in hope that I would get there before anyone else. I left Temora about 7:50am, arriving at the GZ parking area at 9:37am (a little less than 2hrs) and at 9:40am had the CIH. But, was it a FTF? I opened the cache and next the log-book. After a quick flip through it became clear I was the FTF! Once I signed and replaced the cache, I turned around and was greeted by an amazing view of the area. Next, I decided to find some newer caches that has popped up since 2016 and avenge some past DNF’s around the area. I made 10 finds before lunch and after lunch I decided on hitting the ‘Tanso’ trail plus a few lone caches along the way, which added another 14 finds to the total. Only three DNF’s, well two and one NA. All found caches today, ended up being quick finds which left me wondering how, I could DNF the caches last time. I felt a bit like a [:o)]. TB visit on all found caches today. I would like to thank all CO’s of the caches I found today and for allowing them to bring joy to me and the rest of the Geocaching community. TFTC’s

Joolay and I had set our sights on the caches out here to earn more points for the current game. Most were relatively easy finds, maintenance was done on some but all logs were signed. Thanks for the caches. Cache was returned to its hidey hole.
This was one cache that required maintenance - both the container and plastic bag were replaced.

Found with Smittengranny out and about chasing GA caches for the game. We started early and headed to this cache then out to the trigs nearby and back to Yass. Had a great day and enjoyed being out on a beautiful if quite hot day.

The cache container was broken so replaced with CO permission.

We continued our drive along Blakney Creek Road and appreciate why you placed your caches here. We hope other cachers enjoy the drive as much as we did.

Accurate coordinates and good hint lead to a quick find. The container had slipped down the slope and, as a previous finder mentioned the lid of this one is badly cracked and has infact disintegrated. The contents were very wet but the log was only slightly damp in its double layer of ziplock bags.

After signing we put everything back together as best we could and covered the container with a good layer of bark putting a flat grey rock on top to hopefully hold everything in place.

Thanks for this cache Tanso it will need maintenance very soon. The gums along this section of the road are certainly worth a visit.

GCA 1684. Out on a meander around the Yass region for some GC and GCA caches with minniek.

This was the next GCA find for the day. A nice quick find at GZ - always happy about that !

TFTC !! A nice series along here !

Headed out for a quick afternoon of caching with fitzy_1965.

Our main aim was to clear out some GCA in the Yass area. Made a quick find here. Unfortunately, I cracked the lid when closing it....feels rather brittle (worse than the last) from being exposed to the elements. Upside, love picking up some unloved too.

A quick find on our last caching run out of Yass, moving on today. We've enjoyed our couple of days in the area. TFTC

Yass Day trip August 2015. The day took me up Cookes Hill road for my second series of caches up this way. A fun day with good caches all round.

Thanks

Nice trees through here (not snow gums though). Uncovered and a little precarious, but should be OK now.

Thanks

A nice drive in the country with the CO to grab some caches for me and check on a few things for her. The weather was freezing and I found myself entertaining her at times while looking for her hides. Cant believe although I provided the transport, she said I was on my lonesome for the searching. I got the job done here and we were off to the next one.

Found 10:59am with LuckyL10n. I was out on a caching run with LuckyL10n and his partner and friend. We were doing a large loop to grab GC and GCA caches. The hide wasn't too difficult. The log was signed and returned the cache back to its hiding spot. Hopefully they survive for a some time. Grabbed a photo too. Noticed Blakney creek at some point.
Thanks for the cache.

#GA685 - 11:00; I had sown the seed yesterday with the geohoney that we should go for a Sunday drive through the local countryside and perhaps collect a cache or two along the way. An itinerary was then hastily arranged and the geohoney's friend and MrDamage confirmed for the tour. MrD had collected some of the CO's caches which I had picked up last week, plus we had collected a couple of GC caches as well, before we hit these more recently published of the COs caches. A nice quick find on the way past. TFTC Tanso

Arrived at this one, looked at the hint and then found the cache....half way down the embankment. Me thinks an animal has disturb this one, so once the log was signed, I replaced it as per the hint, but covered it with a bit more natural cammo so Mr Possum or Mr Rabbit should get there paws on it. As you need come out this way, might be an idea to check it Tanso...just to be sure.

Thanks for another one....
