A clever little hide. Glad to have another find on our GCA tour of the area. Thanks for the cache.
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 10th 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

I found this cache on my drive back to Canberra after a weekend in the Harden area. Quick find; first place I looked. Cache and log are good. TFTC Tanso.

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

A quick find while staying in Yass while heading for the clear waters Mega TFTC
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.

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.
Lost my glasses here and was glad to come back to this one after doing the circuit and finding them. There was also a cache guardian that had me squealing and dropping the cache super fast. Cache in good condition

We were careful to pull well off the road when we stopped for this cache as the roadseemed very busy this morning. We spotted the cache as we approached as the covering had slipped down. The container was still tucked safely away - such a snug fit! The cache was in very good condition.
After signing the log and returning the container to its niche we replaced the cover and were surprised to see, when we looked back, that all signs of the hide had disappeared. We hope the cover stays in place.
Thanks Tanso for the cache. We enjoy finding really neat, thoughtful hides.

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. 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
Grabbed with LuckyL10n during a day caching run to Yass. Missed it when it was came out, but no problems today and the cache was soon in hand. Another one good to cross off the unfound list......Thanks Tanso.

#GA806 - 10:10; A plan was hatched with Sol de lune and albida33 to do a caching run to Yass over Christmas/New Year break. Various commitments meant it didn't come to pass until today. We headed off at a quite civilised hour and collected a couple of caches near Murrumbateman on the way through. We had collected our first GC cache in Yass when we headed on a detour to grab a couple in this series which were missed for various reasons on previous visits to the area. A nice quick park and grab today on this one for Sdl and I. TFTC Tanso

Only two places to check, so found it in the second place I looked!

I was a kind of beta tester for this one. I was given some coordinates and set free.
It didn't take too long before the sneaky thing was secured.
