Could the next person who finds this cache, please let me know if the trackable "Joshua's Birthday Coin" is still present?
If it is, please move it on - preferably towards Victoria where we'd love to see it again!

Found a sus rock that I would hide a cache under, but nil joy. Off to the other lookout
I found this today, as we were enjoying the beautiful views from the viewing points.
The cache was in a bad way, with wet interior and the log sheet saturated and falling apart.
After drying it out, I have left a fresh log sheet, in a ziplock bag, and all is good again.
Thanks for bringing us up here, the a-team. We didn't realise this area existed.
A favourite point for the views.

Heheh first find. Was taking half hour away from my newborn and remembered about geoing. Looked at my area and boom! Hehe thanks for making my baby break fun. Hehe ? to the Cooma clan
TFTF!
Beautiful spot!
Cache needs a bit of a clean - log and items have been water damaged

Nice quick'ish find. We tipped out the water from the cache.
There is a thunderstorm rapidly advancing towards us, so it's best to get of this mountain.

Have always wanted to visit this lookout having driven past it so many times on the way to the snow. Thanks for the cache and a great reason to finally make the detour
Good find on a windy day. Somewhat of a protected spot.. No pen, and looks like something has been spilt inside the cache.
A slightly tricky search while avoiding muggles. Once the cache was in hand the log was signed. Definitely needs some maintenance as the contents are quite wet.
I thought it might be a Mr Hankey reference but it turns out it was an Austrian Tea House reference. Quite sad to read online about the fate of the fairy village. We are going to see if there’s anything left to see there! TFTC.
Visiting Cooma with Aramil and some GC friendly muggles, mainly to eat at Miss Heidi’s. Found this one. A little wet inside but the log is ok. TFTC
On a day trip to Cooma we I introduced Miss H to a friend. Having a look at the view we did a quick search and had cache in hand.

We had attended the RAAF 100 year celebration flyover in Canberra. It was a great day and we decided to head on down to Cooma for the night.
We decided to take on a few of the local hides before night fall and this was perfect to catch the last lights of the day. I must agree the hint didn't help. No rock but instead a tree was its guardian.
Thanks for placing this cache and doing the maintaining of it, so we can find it. It was a most delightful park and lookout area, with a great view.

Found with Eldritch after a lovely lunch at nearby Miss Heidi's cafe. Thanks for bringing us here.
Out for a fun days caching with fitzy_1965, albida33 & cosmonaut97.
We headed from Canberra down to Cooma out to Anaminaby and back through Namadgi.
Quick find here today.

After a great lunch at Miss Heidis we ventured up to the lookout. A quick find once Miss OlMaLol joined the search. A fantastic view here! Thanks for placing this cache
Came here with ilook4geo before leaving camp in Cooma and soon had cache in hand. We enjoyed the really good views from this point. Both names were signed on the log, all was put back as it had been found and we were on our way again. Thanks go to the_a_team for this cache placement.
Out to find a few caches this morning with goingplaces2. No problem with this one. Good viewa from here. TFTC.

Another trip to the Snowys, this time for work. Picked up a few caches on the way to and fro. Grateful thanks to COs for placing and maintaining the caches to entertain me on my journey.

Grateful thanks to COs for placing and maintaining the caches to entertain me on my journey.Not so quick find here after manevering myself into the right spot I still could't spot the hide following the hint. Then managed despite moving super slowly to hit my head on the structure. Once the pain had calmed down, one last look in an likely spot that was not quite accoding to the current hint then revealed the hide.
The main day hike:
DSD had called to THE mointain (witht the CITO on the highest point of Australia) and lots of people came. A great day out! What a nice hike/ride here today from Charlottse Pass with perfect weather and all the familar faces. A big 26k effort from us (with some side trips, most of it on the bike) What a great feeling to suddently be at the highest point in Australia and to collect so many high altitude caches up here today. Big thank you to DSD for initiating this and for the cache owners for putting so many caches out in the area. I spend a few hours afterward to collect more great caches in the area on the way home, this was one of them.

I drove to the Snowy Mountains for a few days R&R which provided the opportunity to seek out some of the caches on the way. This cache was a straightforward find hidden in an obvious spot more or less on the coordinates. A fine view indeed. Thank you the_a-team for installing and maintaining this cache.
FFLL asked me come to Cooma for drive around to find few caches for day... Good weather and stop for Lunch/dinner.....Good day and Laugh... Thanks
Nice hide and great views. Found with Joolay and Kittykatch on a day out to Cooma. Tftc
Amazing views and so much snow on the mountain.
On a day trip to Cooma chasing windmills with Barb2e and Kittykatch. Darn cold but lovely to be out and about. TFTC the_a-team

Another cache done up here, nice to see the MTB trails, might have to come back with the bike someday!
Out with Tankengine for a trip to Cooma.
We had actually planned to come out this way today anyway, but seeing the new caches out this way still hadn't been found, we decided to leave a little earlier than first thought. Which worked out really well in the end as we got home earlier to be able to attend to our families needs and wants.
We were both under the deck collecting this one when we got sprung by a dog walker and his dog. We sat there quietly for a little, but he guy also sat down and looked like he wasn't going any time soon, so we popped out from under the deck. It must have looked very suspicious. The dog barked at us and his master told him to stand down, but we didn't say much other than "it's ok puppy. Nothing to see here". I'm sure what he thought we may have been doing under there wasn't what we were doing under there. Tftc the_a-team!!!

A nice drive to this spot as we teamed up with JozMoz! The cache was not located to where it says on the app as it took us some time to find it
Found on a grey, cold, wet day. Not surprisingly we were the only ones here so we were able to hunt in peace! TFTC
Found today with jenniescouts2/3 while checking out the lookout and tea rooms
Found with The Matetrix
With The Matetrix’s final soccer game for the season scheduled in Cooma, took the opportunity to make a few finds along the way. A warm and sunny day, it only got better as it went on. It was first (TM) vs second (C) on the ladder, the victor taking the title. Long story short, TM won with a smashing 8-1 win.
Left home around 11.00am and headed South along the Monaro. Pulled up at the entry gate for the short drive across to ‘Rosedale Railway’. Took a few minutes to locate GZ, but signed the log without issue. Went for a climb up to the track, and probably across a little too far along the bridge. It looked sturdy, enough. Down we climbed and the bumpy return back to the highway. Only an 8 minute drive to Bredbo for a cosy lunch time event at the Bredbo Inn. Arrived at around the planned ETA, a small number already sitting comfortably and tucking into a variety delicious pub grub. Ordered an amber fluid and settled down for a meet and great. Unfortunately time was pressing, TMs kick off just after 1pm. Downed the beer, thanked all present for the company and headed outside. Oh yes, a quick tip for ‘Man from Snowy River Bredbo Inn’, damn, should of found it before buying the pale ale. Oh well, next time.
Approaching the green and well maintained fields for the impending clash, we still had a few minutes to spare. Side tracked towards ‘Duck Duck Goat’, which after a bit of scramble was found with a pleasant smile. No wiggly sticks spotted, but I’m sure they’re not to far away. The day warming up nicely, I’m sure some sunbathing will soon be a common sight.
Back at the game, and as advised earlier a comfortable and solid victory. I must admit, the first half was the best they’ve played all season and it was a most deserved championship success. After the game it was a late lunch at a local café on the main street. Business wasn’t exactly booming at this time, but that quickly changed with the 20 odd hungry stomachs marching through the door. Again some good food was served, I recommend the chicken schnitzel burger and a ginger beer. A play in the park after all was downed, as I did as a kid whenever we passed through town on the way to the snow. With the match events now concluded the team slowly peeled off headed home. The Raiders game televised on the box tonight, some eager fans keen to watch yet another victory (as it turned out).
A few hours of sunlight still remaining, why waste it driving directly home. Headed out of town and up the twisting Mt Gladstone lookout road. A little windy at the top but some great views back down and around. We weren’t here for those though, just the two caches ‘Heidi Ho’ and ‘South Gladdy’. Both didn’t take long, and we were soon heading back down the hill (mountain).
Yes, a little more sunlight left, so in turning back towards Canberra, pulled over for two final hides, ‘JoeyLoves Treasure Pot’ and ‘ Eddie’s winter home!’. Sweet and simple, logs signed, we returned to the geomobile and drove without a stop arriving home just after 7pm, with dinner just about ready I might add. Great timing!
Thanks to all the CO’s for the hides and maintenance, TM’s soccer coach for the season and the geowife for the warm welcome home.

We had to wait out the slowest muggle family in the world here, myself and goose were heading North to the Mega and wanted to get a move on but no we had to take in the views for 10 minutes which is nice and all but we want to find the cache lol
Once the muggle tourists had gone it was a quick find by me and we added our names to the log.
Thanks for the cache.

On the way back to Canberra to hit the Mega event for the Easter weekend I came up here with Stainless steel rat to log the trig point for GCA but couldn't leave behind the two GC caches . A quick find for us after waiting out a family who didn't seem to want to ever leave. Great views from the lookout here (but better ones over the back).

Found with nissan 65 on a few day away caching. Decided on Tumut and Cooma before heading home to the Shoalhaven. Thanku for the cache.
Found on a good day looking at the Snowy river Hydro power plant scheme, only had time to wisit the center in Cooma and Eucumben Dam,
Stoped at mount Gladstone for a quick loo stop and to strech our legs. Nice easy find and an enjoyable view. Thankful for the clue as cgeo has been really poor lately.
Heidi Ho Hum no Smiley for us today, gave the deck a good workover from under and on top.
Maybe the C.O can check it out in the near future
