Closing this cache down due to WP site redevelopment.

Cannot bring this cache back on line until Service Club redevelopment work at WP1 is completed. Unfortunately when this might happen is entirely out of my hands.

Due to redevelopment of first waypoint and flood damage of GZ, I am disabling indefinitely. May try to rejig co-ords after aforesaid redevelopment works are completed.

Had to look hard to find the cache, but got there eventually.
I think I came across every P plater in town in the process of finding this cache. You sure know all the best teen hangouts.

Took some pictures but didn't have time to figure this one out so will come back next time I'm in town.

Doh - was working my way in doing caches today when I saw that GZ for this one was near somewhere I had been previously!!! Oh well, next time - Thanks.

TFTC, after getting co-ordinates wrong, second effort got to gz with a short search came up with the goods.

Finally got this one second time around. I must of miscalclated last time so we didnt find it. Its funny thatt last time we went to GZ geocousin got bit by a wasp last time and she chucked the sads. Nice cache in the end because even the hide was hard.

New container now in place. All good to go.

Cache has been carried off. Temporarily disabled until I can get replacement on site, but should be OK by the April long weekend.

Not sure its there anymore and I note it hasn't been found since late last year. Fairly confident I was looking in the right place, particularly with the clue but unable to find it after a brief search. Nice spot though.

A nice lookout and a second visit to another area. At least different patches of the reserve are covered now. Thanks.

A nice view of Tumut from the first half of the cache was enjoyed while we ate our ice creams picked up in town on our way back from a day at Yarangobilly caves, then it was back to the caravan park and on to our bikes for part 2; we had already explored the area surrounding GZ on our way to a few other caches yesterday, so had a good idea where to go and were rewarded with a quick find. Thanks for the cache and the exercise Euco

Found on my first trip to the wetlands since all the work to create this lovely area. Good to see a few caches around here now - this is such a great spot... not that I am biased being an ex local or anything. TFTC TNLN

Fitzy summed this one up pretty well. Did the calculations and headed down to the low area and where meet with a few other folk there.

It was only on the way back to the car that they mentioned caching. Yep, sprung again!!!!

Thanks for the trip up and down.

1451 - 16th cache on a run through Wee Jasper Forest and the Tumut region with Sol - a nice Sunday Drive really !

Gathered the info at the start then headed off to GZ. As luck would have it many muggles with their children running around playing hide and seek. Eventually got to where I thought the hide was and made the find. Signed, then waited for a chance to replace - yes ! - success...... not spotted....

Until when we were walking out and one of the adult muggles said - 'Are you playing that Game - whats it called - oh yeah - Geocaching???"

"Um yes - sprung again...." Laughs all round...!! Gotta love those moments !!

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Got to the waypoint of this one and got the information made our way to gz and while on our way a 4wd was wondering what we were doing, those crazy canberrians i bet they were saying. Couldnt work out the clue until geograndma roo had a guess and was right TFTC Not a good cache to do in the wet

New log sheet attached to old one. Thanks to The Emongs for notification.

TFTC A great hide. [ needs new log sheet]

Found and logged at 13.50
Last of 7th finds in Tumut today

Found by Mary & David at 0850. Quite appropriate to be doing this in the rain. The area looked very green, and we spotted several water birds, even including a goose, along the walk. They all seemed right at home in the conditions. TNLN. Our thanks to Euco.

Found with Ultra Violet Z, SuperJaz & Bewilderbeest. We had a bit of an adventure finding new places on our way to Tumut. It was lots of fun and good caching.

Sorry, I'm a bit behind on logging my finds.

Thanks for the cache

Found with the Team Bananaphone crew of Little Buds, SuperJaz & Bewilderbeest. We did this on our weekend trip to Tumut, we had great fun.

Sorry, I'm way behind on logging my finds.

Thanks for the cache

This was our first cache for the day after overnighting in Tumut. What a couple of delightful spots to be out and about in the cool morning air. Very pleasant. TFTC

It was a beautiful morning to be out and about in Tumut. I loved the locations for this cache, both the high and the low. Wonderful to see the effort that has been made beautifying the low.

Another "Team Bananaphone" find with SuperJaz, Ultra Violet Z and Little Buds.

Thanks for a fine cache

Found this cache on a trip to the area to visit Shadow's dad. Brought him along for the hunt and introduced both him and his wife to our underworld... mwuhahhahahhahha... more people to think we are crazy (and obsessed!)

Loved the first waypoint - a good location to visit for sure. On our way back down the hill we took in the golf club (even though it's the wrong direction) and had a bit of a general sight-seeing tour around the place before heading off to the general vicinity for the cache.

We elected to park about 1.4kms away (even though we were assured we could park heaps closer - which indeed was true) and take in the whole walk of that environment.

It was a pleasant stroll on a day that was about 28 degrees, beautiful really. Stopped for icecream before we even started, really, and strolled like tourists and/or walkers. Arrived at the cache location and the 4 of us were crawling all over the structure seeking the cache when a big black dog came and attempted to shoo us away.

Funnily enough I had on my club dog trainer's polo shirt, and so when the owner eventually arrived, he asked me if I would take his pooch with me for a few days. Snicker... nice dog, though, really.

Eventually we got back on with the job, read the hint and were no better off, so started systematically again when Shadow! came up with the goods. Too many stinging nettles in its resting spot for me to have found that one!

With the log signed and all replaced, we were on our way to complete our trip (not going back the way we came) and then on to another nearby cache.

This was certainly in an area that was worth coming to, so TFTC!

Cache was dry and the log still has plenty of spaces on it.

TFTC, and back to the ACT we go!

I drove the round about way to the cache's first WP, then toured the area before we headed off to get the GZ. Liked the low bit of the tour a great deal - a morning stroll was certainly a good way to get into the day.

TFTC! Fun

After a early stop at the starting point ,we took some photos and did the maths.On arrival at the GZ,the road has been block for roadworks for awhile so we parked down a bit and walked the tracks in.The cache was a quick find in a very tranquil area with a few other walkers over on the tracks firther along.Thanks to Euro for a well planned multi and nice hide.

Was able to do the maths right on this one and get back for some breakfast with eba. Nice little walk and well placed cache. Thanks for the tour.

Our last cache while in Tumut. Was a nice one to finish on! Thoroughly enjoyed the view from WP1, and had a bit of fun trying to find the cache. Thanks for the cache!

Thanks Nyssa83 for the lovely photo of Wasptor and I. Had fun cruising round tumut for a half the day, this was a really nice cache to finish on. TFTC!

My first geocache find! Love the location

Wow - two lovely locations for a multi! That's my kind of multi! Would have done the whole walk, but other caches were calling! Thanks Euco!

Had a good look around from this one. Certainly a great place to lookout at Tumut from. Did the required calculations and made my way to GZ. Took the short walk (it was almost dinner time) option and found the little bugger after a quick search. TFTC and for the tour.

Found at 1340. After calculating the numbers at WP1, DJ Rascal and I parked at the entrance to GZ and had a short stroll to the cache. On the way out we were met by a muggle family so we timed it pretty well. Great spot.

TFTC.

Found at 3:07
We really enjoyed this one. Thanks to Euco for a great multi. We enjoyed the challenge of WP1, however the answers were easy. I did have a few maths, no, reading skills that lead us in the wrong direction. (I subtracted both, instead of added) It had been a long morning. but after hubby found my mistake we found GZ and enjoyed this little piece of paradise. What a great place. Thanks

Been meaning to this one for some time but haven`t been back to Tumut for a while. Admired the view over the town and worked out the co ords before setting off to find GZ.
Was pleasently surprised to see such a well kept gardens at GZ. Didn`t do the whole walk, but had to time our search between other walkers with J keeping look out whilst I did the search.
Found after 10 minutes of waiting and searching.

SL @ 1630. Cheers.

Cache check... All good.

Nice evening views of Tumut, then a quick little interesting trip. TFTC.

A great offset cache, was easy one we got our maths skills organised! We were a bit disappointed in the needle poking out of the post on the way in to grab the cache.

Thanks Euco for the cache.

Liked this cache. Enjoyed the multi hunt.

Interesting equation. Put a rescued turtle in these idyllic surroundings at the same time. TFTH.

Been coming to Tumut for 15 years but have never stopped at waypoint 1. Thanks for making us do it. The view is gorgeous. Love what they have done to the area surrounding the final cache. TFTH

Found it ! This is my first multi and it was fun. After a little maths inaccuracy and a wild goose chase I eventually figured it out and I am wiser for the experience. TFTC SL

Great view from the first point and worked out where the GZ was but had trouble working out how to get there. Obviously I eventually did, and dropped off a small GC which fits nicely in there.

Thanks Euco.

5:02pm
In town staying with Denmar and decided to do this one on our way to the main street. Easy multi, nice views from the lookout, nice walk at GZ as well.

No problems finding cache.

Cheers

First one for the day on a big trip around and up and over the mountains with Mr gopher. Stopped and looked around for a while before we headed off to GZ. Had an issue with the satellite gods for a little while, but we got there in the end.
Thanks Euco,
Roostaman.

Found by baby&Mrs gopher with Roostaman at 0905.After a false start we got underway and had an easy find at the end.TNSL Tnx Euco

Having partaken of the views at waypoint one yesterday at sunset, I took the stroll round the common at sunrise
So I got to see the down and up as well as the ups and downs in Tumut town

Found at 9.35am
Great views at first waypoint and the cache was located a short walk from where we were staying, a pleasant walk to GZ
Thanks
K&M

Third one for the day. Another interesting spot near the river. Good one

Nice view from WP1 and the question prooved not mto be too difficult as we got the easy maths correct. It was late afternoon when we arrived at the cache location and there wasn't any time to walk the track at the cache site - we'll have to try and do it on another visit. Enjoyed the sunset on the hearby mountains.

found 8.AM good hide.had walk along the walking track most enjoyable
Thanks from TEAM DENMAR.
