I was not going to walk long grass in runners with snakes waking up. Awesome view though! Thought i was heading up a driveway its that narrow!

We climbed down like mountain goats but no luck. If the cache is there, the terrain rating is definitely not 1.5! Great views though

Found plenty of rubbish but no cache

Dont think its doable anymore. See pic

was hard and had to go on mountain side but found it

Easy

Hdhdg

Hardest one yet

That was a windy, hairy drive up! Met another car at the top. What a beautiful view The cache was retrieved pretty quickly and the geokids were thrilled to make swaps. Log is damp. Thanks for bringing us here and TFTC!

i was SO exited to find it. even though it took me a while it was DEFINITELY WORTH IT!!!

While out today in the 4x4 I thought it was time to search for this cache didn't know what the track was like but no probs found your cache easy enough signed and replaced TFTC

This was my second attempt at this cache. Last time it was very wet underfoot and I wasn’t prepared to be a mountain goat into the the barbed wire fence. Today it was a lot drier after the summer and early part of autumn. The ground was still very steep and the fence was still there but I managed to get down to fence level with no injuries. Once at GZ , which my device indicated very accurately, the cache was located easily and retrieved. Contents err dry but dirty, especially log book. I took the trackable which has been there quite a while. The cache isn’t visited often and obviously not every cacher who visits take the trackables. As I said on my previous log the terrain here is way more than a 1.5 rating one. Thanks for bringing us here anyway.

Got it!

Tftc

Nice view but no cache to be found.

Found it very tight to drive up there but still made it

Found it took a bit but wasn't to bad

Not so easy to get to! Needs a bit of work. Contents of cache is very wet and mouldy. Eagles18 dropped off a TB.

Very wet and mouldy. Needs new logbook and a bit of a clean out.

Today we explored Korumburra and surrounds using Geocaching as a guide and picking up a few caches on the way and this was one of them. An easy find. Enjoyed the trek up to the top of the hill in the 4x4.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Looked at everything possible in area of 1.5 terrain. The spot I suspect is where the cache is well beyond that terrain, especially with broken branches everywhere obstructing access. More like 3.5T! Thanks for bringing us to this great view of the town.

First find of the day, with +wife and our Geomutts. Nicely hidden. A little bit moist but nothing that an hour in the sun wouldn't fix. Followed the geotrail to GZ. Interesting that no-one has found it since Kate was here. Our friends in Loch told us about this lookout so we checked the app and discovered your cache.

Very disappointed to get all this way with a dnf. Will keep my eye out for co to confirm it's still in place

Please check if this is still here?

Log book Yuck, wet and soggy needs some love

With GeoDad helping Mr ms-enchantress on a building project today in town Ms- enchantress took Geomum and kids on a quick tour of Korumburra.
A lovely area, TFTC SL TNLN TBV

That narrow road and steep falls i was almost ready to turn back but i would of never came back up here the view from up here is just breath taking tftc with geodude#74

2nd geocashe ever found! Nice little spot over looking the home town (:

Found it. First ever geocache!

It is a neat little drive up the hill. Great view of Korumburra and surrounds.

Nice view
Found it !!

Nice view

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there Nav Nuts. We found your cache "Up, Up & Away" at 12:44:00 PM today. This cache makes our find count 12611.
[Blue]
We are staying with relatives in Warragul, and our cache run today was started at a random cache on the map. We then navigated to the one the GPS said was next closest etc.

The cache is outside the fence so it can be legally accessed.

We ended up logging 22 and DNF'd 1.
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: We found the cache around 5m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: The container and log book are covered in black mould.
Took: Nothing.
Left: A Smiley Badge if the cache was large enough.

Thanks for the hunt,
Regards
Ian & Penny.[font=Verdana]

Attempted this one today. I got right up to the cache location but was unable to find the cache. I suspect that you may not be able to legally get to this cache anymore.

Found this one with crig. TFTC (great view)

Decided to come up here to catch a sunset and find a cache. Dunno how many times I've been up here during my lifetime. The road seems much narrower these days, but the view just as good. Log was a bit damp but otherwise cache ok.

Found

found it, fear of gravel roads, even more now, but worth it for the view

VERY narrow, windy, gravelly road but worth the drive for the view!

Amazing view! We left one of our usual trade items. Thanks for the hide!

Tanks! We found it

Second time lucky

TFTC beautiful spot we wouldn't have found otherwise.

TFTC

Camped at Korumburra, and even with light rain, we went out to pick up a few caches.

A very narrow road, but no traffic. The views are worth the drive.
Cache was found after a short scramble.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Nav Nuts, for us and others to find.

04/10/2014 >2.30pm - Didn't get to gz. Didn't like to look of the single lane road when we were part way along so decided to turn back - with dgfb33 & geogran1937

To the cache owners:- You should add to your description of the access road that it is one lane only and meeting a vehicle will be a problem, rather than have members find this out when they are actually on the road. You only say narrow, not how narrow.

What an amazing place. The views are very impressive. I am certainly glad that I did not meet any other cars on this narrow little road, but once at the top of was totally worth it.
Took a bit of a 'detour' to get to GZ and had to use the hint but as soon as I found it I realized there was an easier way to get there. Oh well, the adventure was worth it. Thanks for placing this cache is such a great place. TFTC

This was our second attempt at this one.. Arrived at GZ around 10pm.. Searched a while in all the obvious places.. Reset our tools and were quickly rewarded with cache in hand.. Log signed, cache returned..

Thanks Nav Nuts for bringing us here... A long narrow windy road... But once you reach the top... Breathtaking views of a beautiful little town

So pleased that we didn't meet any traffic coming in the opposite direction along this goat track of a road. Instead of enjoying the view I was trying to look around each corner for cars, and imagine how on earth we would get past each other or where we would back up to. Fortunately there was no traffic. This is a cache we've been meaning to do for quite a while, and grateful to find the cache. I have visions of kmps in his motorhome...... Thanks for the adventure Nav Nuts

Last found on the 8th May last year. When we read this we nearly decided to pass it by but then decided as there had been no DNFs to give it a go. In practice it was a relatively easy find and a fantastic view of the town made it well worth while. TFTC

Not a lot of room to turn the motor home around up here. Thanks Nav Nuts FTC.

On the way home from Fairbank I had noticed this cache being unfound by us in the area, looked at the map and found the way to the cache. A nice drive that was quite windy, but in the end arrived at GZ and located the cache. Signed the log and replaced before heading home.

Thanks for the cache

Been up, up & away...
Took a deep breath here like Ive been running up here ha
Thanks Nav Nuts for bring me here and cache

Great collection of collectables we added to it, but didn't take anything. Great spot!

Container wet inside. Great views

Found 16-2-13. Tftc

Found it, lovely views

Last stop of the day. Geo husband scrambled the few meters down off the road to retrieve the cache. Fantastic views after very windy drive to top of hill. TFTC

A lovely (hot) sunny day with no school and the day off for day1976 - perfect day for caching. Our day started with a morning rush to get out of the house, then calmed down as the day progressed. At 4:30 we finished our hunt with a stunning 14/19!!! (stunning for me (: (:)

Brilliant views. TFTC

What a brilliant view at GZ. A steep walk through some very long grass made a hair raising experience. Didn't see any snakes, but I am sure they saw me!

I just loved the drive up to GZ. Great views along the way and also at the end. The grass was very long and I had to be careful walking down to GZ because I couldn't tell how far down each step was going to be. Found the cache without too much difficulty. Thanks for the drive, the views and the cache.

Found this one two days ago. Had a few hours off, so I parked at the bottom of the hill and spent about 40 minutes slowly trudging up to the top ( I needed the fitness!)
A beautiful walk with beautiful views, apart from the few dead foxes that have been hung on the fence next to the road, which stink downwind from them. Tricky find still once I got to the top! I found it easiest to follow the fence line from further down the hill. TNLN TFTC!

Decided it would be a good day for a drive as i would have all the public places to myself, just as long as i could brave the icy wind and driving rain. I remember the school doing a walkathon of 10 km, so we all walked up to the top of this hill then back down to school. The road certainly hasn't changed much. Great location. TFTC.

My favorite cache of the day! I loved the little winding goat-track road. On the drive up I passed a local who was jogging backwards up the track in the pouring rain.. he waved back but looked at me with a quizical look like he was pondering why I was driving up here at 8am, but hey, I wasn't the one jogging backwards up hill in the rain!! The weather timed it nicely and cleared up breifly as I approached the top. What a view, totally worth the detour. Thanks Nav Nuts!

Great view. Definitely need boots and long pants for this find

I drove up in my Focus. Two cows on the road near the top wouldn't let me drive passed. I wasn't about to reverse down that narrow steep track. Tried lots of things and finally the last one mounted the embankment and the Focus crept by. Whew! Cache was great! Having long jeans on helped protect the legs. I enjoyed the company of cows in and out of the paddock as I signed the log.

TFTC Met a car on the way in but the 4x4 climbed the bank and allowed the other car to pass easily. SL Was in good condition when we found it ..

What a wonderful view.

TFTH. TNLN.

What a goats track up to this one,but what a view.Found something up there ,see photo to what it was and NO it's not mine. Thanks Nav Nuts for the cache

Beautiful scenery! I love the view of my work, the town and the hills. Don't wear your good clothes for this one, it's a bit muddy & steep. TFTC!

Found this one while out on the motorbike today.WOW how did you find this spot, what a great view. Kind of creepy in its own way, I'm sure I could here banjo's playing up in these back blocks and the locals in the photo's weren't to happy with me.

Thanks Nav Nuts for this cache. SL TN left BMW matchbox car

Oh so much mud!!! TFTC

We were coming up to leave our own and see we've been beaten to it. TFTC

A great view from up here. The road was a bit scary on the way down though! TFTC

Found after a Slippery drive up the hill. After we'd finished admiring the view the hunt was on.

Found with the Earthbound Team and Wileyclan on a massive caching day. A lovely drive up and a fantastic view to boot. Thanks Nav Nuts. TFTH...SL....TNLN

Today we had a bit of an assault on the area going with a team comprising of walenators, wileyclan and Earthbound Chief, which ended up being quite long and fruitful!

After an intersting drive up the hill where locals didn't seem to want to share the road with us, we arrived at the top and admired the view. It must have been good as it dragged the fourth member of the Earthbound team out of the car finally! Afer a little while we headed off in search of the cache where it was decided that I was the one going in for the search. I soon enough had it in hand and we were on our way once more

Thanks for the cache and for showing us this lovely place Nan Nuts

Cheers

Out with Dunko and Slink1 for a caching run proved to be a quick find TFTC SL

Great spot - the higher the better if you ask us!

Took: nothing
Left: water pistol

Hi Nav Nuts the bag that the note book it is falling to pieces,it needs replacing .

found at 12.35 pm with Hearse068. Great views. T1L1

Found on a big day out with Gonefishen07 great views T1L1

Found at 2:23 AM on a late night out caching with Quasar3671. TFTC

Out for a night cache run with Coverthypnosis. Drove up the winding dirt road till we came to the gates, and within 20m of GZ. Night view wasn't too bad but would be nice during the day. Cache found and log signed. Thanks for the hide.

FOund by Greg & M 1420H 15/05/10. Great view from GZ. Greatly admire those who hike to this one. We would not have made it without some mechanisation. TFTC TNLN.

Found at1410 pm Great to visit this spot again used to ride pushbike to this spot as a boy was a great trip back down TNLN TFTC

Found it No. 2559 ... that wind .. great view otherwise ... TNLN

Called in today to replace container, all ok, thanks for the heads up Elmer.

Not a bad view from up here! The country style crash barriers seemed to work - we didn't roll down the hill! We found a bonus at the gz in the shape of some eyewear which we'll try and track the owners down. The cache was located easily by myself but the container had a few cracks in it. I placed it back so that it would minimise water entry, but a new container would be best. No swaps today. TFTH.

Elmer.

This was another of the roads I took today that was definately not the best on a big road bike. I was glad that GZ wasn't at the very top. Great views again from one of Nav Nuts' caches. TNLN Thanks for the cache.

A beautiful spot, the road was a bit tricky but well worth the trip. TNLN. TFTC
