This needed maintenance, but my enthusiasm for upkeep on this one has diminished, so visited today to remove the container.

Container is cracked at both ends and the bitey ants are starting to move in.

I didnt have the usual supplies to tape it up or repair it.

A quick find while grabbing a couple in the area.

Found before the rain set in!
Another fantastic location!
Tftc ?

Find number 2 for this little trip. Saw a lot of bush looking for this one and the track on the GPS looks like someone's scribbled on the screen. Gotta get it out and use it a bit more often I think. TFTC

I visited 'Halfway Up', and then continued onto this cache. The box is cracked open both ends. TFTC.

we took the geodogie but she's small and quiet so did not uset the wild life. Had to search around a bit whilst GPS was sorting itself out around the trees.
Container is a little damged.

container is a little damaged and no longer water proof, zip lock bag also has a couple of small holes in it. Although the log book is quite dry and provided it is put back a particular way it should stay dry.

Another easy find going cross country. Tftc

Found it on a nice hike through the area. Took a bit of a search, good location. TFTC, TNLN

1260. Headed here from Jerra Quarry View and enjoyed a very pleasant walk. Found the container but no scarlet robins, no coloured up males anyway. TFTC.

On a run through Jerra picked this one up.
TFTC

Found it in the dark!!

Easy find on a hike around Jerra, TFTC

found this cache while doing a few others in the area.

There are holes in this container. The baggie is not quite waterproof anymore. Log slightly damp. SL.

Quick grab during some caching in Queanbeyan/Jerrabomberra area today. Signed log: TNGD. TFTC winglen!

Lovely walk with a nice view at the cache and along the way. TFTC!

Nice quick walk to an easy find. Tftc.

Thank you.

Container is cracked on both ends but log is still dry because of the way it is located

Last find of the day before heading back to Granny and Pa's house for roast dinner. Yum!

Large Huntsman was waiting for me

Found pretty easily. Great spot. TFTC winglen

Found with teamppss. Blue sky, light breeze and great aussie bush smells. TFTC

Great location TFTC

2 big roos sharing the spot today. Cache container slightly broken and a little water in but not a big deal yet. Great spot, 8 yo was rapt to find this one. TFTC.

Well, this is accidental geocaching at it's finest.

Was babysitting nearby, and the kids wanted to go for a bushwalk in the reserve near their house, that they've just recently discovered.
hey, that's this one!

We found the half-way up one, and they were all excited about finding it!
Oh why not, lets find this one too!!!

Saw a roo or two bounce up, the kids seemed to run up, i seemed to..trudge along, piggybacking one of the kids.
Apparently the place looks very "Indiana Jones"est, according to the 7 year old. Hmm, i dunno what she's talking about, but that's ok. It looks pretty.

Found this one with my geokid he's 4 and loves it TFTC

A pleasant walk through the woods and a final bit of bush bashing to reach GZ. TFTC

Found with Abida33 , but with the rest of the team already found this they dived off on the other nearby cache , found after a short search, a nice pleasant location on this beautiful day.
nice

easy spotted while dalangeQBN was walking around in circles

TFTC found on the return trip with KurtCee from Jerra Quarry view. Took minifig and left jumping beans

Container is a cracked and brittle from age(?)

[Lovely spot! Found the cache after a lot of back and forth, mainly due to a rather poor GPS reading. Great place to hide a cache - for those of you having trouble, here's a hint;] it's not at ground level. [TFTC! Took a car, left a minifig.]

Found a friendly spider too. TFTC

Found easy. TNLN TFTC

Located by ATLnJ at 1245h on 07 Nov 10.
Find #0042.
Took Pinball game. Left alligator light. SL.
TFTC winglen, regards ATLnJ.

Found with gavz on a quick caching expedition up the hill.

TNLN TFTC

Found with nathanr.au tnln tftc

Wandered to this one from Halfway Up (GC20N7K), GPS had me in off-coordinate slightly at GZ, but standing back & scanning the area soon had the cache located. TNLN, SL. TFTC.

nice

Not too difficult if you follow the hint

This was a nice day for a walk in the bush. After a short search at GZ we found the cache signed log and off to the next one. Thanks for the cache.

We missed this one some time ago so, today we were in the area and took time to go for a short walk. At GZ we were a bit astray of the right spot but crystal warrior expanded our search and made the find. All good! Cheers......

A great spot and a good hide.
T. Flower ring L. Mini pinball game.

TFTC

Very peaceful. Signs of birds which makes a welcome break from the rat race.

With 131 further up the hill, now its time for a pie at the shops.

Its taken me a while to get to this one, but Im glad I finally did. Its a nice area and it was a great autumn afternoon to be out. I noted Oz Lurker also visited Halfway Up today, and I was rewarded when I got here with a shiny new pathtag sweet.

A very enjoyable, not too strenuous cache, thanks guys.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Nice quiet space out here, with no muggles spotted at all. Did this one first, then onto 'Halfway Up'.

TFTC

News just in: Batgirl calls study break as brain starts to dribble out left ear....
Well...not quite but it was good to stretch the legs, relax the brain-cells and enjoy the sunshine....sigh...now back at home and back to the slog I'm afraid. TFTC though.

Cool cache, GPS was a bit off its face care of the poor weather (very cloudy, bit of sleet)

Second find of the day (First was "Halfway up" or GC20N7K)

Quite enjoyable hike soon worked off the cold

TNLN, TFTC

Found this cache with geokids in tow. Second find of the day ("Half way up" the first find). The clue helped the find. Nice view of the surrounds from up here. TNLN. TFTC.

It was a very easy find. The clue really helped. Nice hide too. TFTC.

nice walk to this, found quite easy and out of the way, rock may be of interest to muggles. Swapped out toy bracelet for toy ring and highlighter. TFTC!

So this is what bushland that hasn't been burned out in the last 10 years looks like! Came up from "Halfway Up" to this one. I love all the little trails in this area, very nice and peaceful up here and not too steep. Cache was found under the typical out of place rock. Thanks for cache Winglens!

Found this while going for a bike ride. There are some really excellent mountain bike trails around this part of Jerra and I incorporated a ride with a cache exploration.

Awesome hiding spot although I think the rock may strike interest from bushwalking muggles.
Nice work with the container too. When I get around to hiding my own I may have to steal your idea.

Cheers.

A quick walk from Half way up and needed the water we grabed when we parked the car. Nice spot of bushland here, great day for exploring too.

Found on an afternoon stroll through the bush with the family.The eldest found it herself.

Great hide.

The Block Crew

A early morning walk/cache whilst staying nearby with muggle friends. Once near GZ (so many hiding spots!) I used the "Where would I hide a cache" technique, and had the goods in hand within seconds. Lots of jogging and dog walking muggles about, but not near GZ.

Thanks winglen.

We have just moved into the area and finally got sick of unpacking boxes .. what better what to explore the local area than to track down a cache or two.
This one showed up only 250m from our house, so it was an obvious candidate for our first in the area.
Lovely evening walk, its very interesting bush, there's hardly any undergrowth.
TFTC .. we took the Blue Heart TB, we'll find a new home for it

Visited cache tonight with Justjessie...

Returned to log this cache as I had previously been here with O319 back in April. That was before I had my own geocacing name. Left blue heart TB and took back the hair tie we left in April.

TFTC

Had a nice evening walk up the hill and found the cache. Nice area that we hadn't been to before - wish we'd brough Geohound Cougar as he would have loved it here. TFTC

Logged from my phone using the Geocache Navigator by Trimble

Last for the day and the last before I go back to WA. Nice and close to where I am staying. Nice hike to get the blood pumping. TFTC from MR MACCA.

The fifth cache for Ju and I this afternoon and unfortunately we didn't see any wildlife on our trip up here, we saw rubbish. There was a computer and a shovel (obviously used to construct the nearby bike track) and a lot of garbage. We brought down what we could carry but there was quite a bit more scattered around - unfortunate as this was a very nice area for walking in.

Visited Ra's Gecko - SL TFTC

Reasons I like caching - Number ohhhhh, say 262 ?

Another beaut spot that I wouldn't have known existed if not for a small plastic container hidden nearby. What a lovely little hill, criss-crossed with trails. Thought it worth almost dropping off another cache nearby to bring more people here but then thought there is some bleedin' obscure squirrel puzzle blocking my proposed spot.

Thanks for bringing me here

one awesome hike up the hill... thanks for the cache

A pleasant evening stroll - no roos spotted though.

Took nothing, left nothing.

This was a great quiet location at this gz. Found quickly on my walk around jerra TFTC

Nicely hidden, but easy to find cache. This is my first time out, so I'm glad it wasn't too difficult. It's on a hill just behind where I live so it was great to not have to worry about going to far away. Never used the GPS before so I got a little confused when the compass was leading me astray. I needed to calibrate it, then directions closer to the target were more reliable.

Was a nice jaunt in the foggy bush just before work.
Continued on for a nice 6 km walk around the hill.
Will take my daughter for an adventure in a few weeks, she'll love it!!!

Up the hill quickly while Geospouse was organising comething in Jerra.

Quick find. TFTC.

Went for a strol with wife and two Geokids, wife and older daughter found it, nice hide. Comments about the GSP being a little erratic are correct, walked around in a bit of a cicle to find it and then found it at GZ. Put GSP on the ground reading GZ and then looked 30sec later and it was 10mts to GZ. Stayed that way for about 3 minutes and then retunred to 0mts.

T - Little Miss Naughty (5 year old very impressed)
L - Hair tie

Went and found it with the family. Good walk.

A good walk after the Budgie double.
Nice views. Good Hide.

Took Keyring; Left Magnet.

Thanks. This was our second attempt to find a cache but our very first find. The in car GPS got us pretty close but it took a while to find the right hiding spot. It was very quiet and the trees provided some shade on a very hot 36 degree day.
TNLN

We were visiting friends in Jerrabomberra, and as the kids were bored with the conversation they went and did this one on their own. 12yo found it along with a huntsman living in the hiding place!

Our 2nd find.

T: yo-yo and die L: 2x hairclips

warm day today, the cache was easy to find but i had been in the area before. too many muggles about! last time

mugglers everywhere! bugger will be back

Found this cache on my way home from work. It was a good short walk and a great way to finish a long day. My commendations to the previous finder as I looked in a spot where I thought it would be first and didn't find it but after looking all around the place I went back to my original spot and had a good look. It was hidden so well even I couldn't find it when I was looking for it, so there's no chance for little mugglers to find it in passing. Good job!

We had a great walk and there are fantastic views.

(#71) Found 1405. Out with Team Dean today and attack this one as its only 800mtrs away as crow flies. Its amazing whats in your own neighbourhood. TNLN TFTC!!

#222 - A nice quiet spot with lots of birds. The walk will be even better in a week or so when the wattles come out.
TNLN. Thanks for the cache.

This was one of two I did in the area this afternoon. I really enjoyed the walk up to the GZ and once there found the goods in quick time. You've chosen a lovely quiet spot to place a Cache. Thanks for taking me there

Was out shopping with the family and this one came up on the radar on the way home. After a leisurely stroll up the hill with geokiddy on my shoulders and pregnant wife in tow, we found and logged the cache whilst admiring the view. TFTC

spot on reading great hiding spot found immediatelt TFTC!

Interesting hiding spot. Loved the way it was hidden.

Hi
Nice spot easy find (must be getting better at this) lost dog... took more time to find dog than cache.
Took frog as was going to white rocks - frogs need water. Left donkey.

All good

Found on an early morning walk. Grabbed the geocoin. TFTC

Quick find and a nice walk up here. Dropped in coin. Thanks for the cache. ZZ7

Paul, Tracy, geobaby Huey and I found our first cache this afternoon! Getting to the vicinity of the cache was straight forward enough, but, after 15 minutes of walking around and around in circles, we were on the cusp of giving up when we found it. The position I noted for the cache was slightly different.
Now that we've found our first, we'll seek to plant a few caches in the area, because there aren't many around Jerrabomberra.

Another quick find this morning, with no wildlife around to distract us. We sat back while a new cacher poked and prodded around; we had already spotted the cache, but thought we'd give him a chance to spot it, to his credit he did (eventually). TFTC

Rated: for Overall Experience

Wow a hard climb from the Bicentennial side.

The GPSr had us all over the side of the mountain but we finally found it!!! huzzah

That one definitely burned some calories.

found it!

Thanks, this was our first ever cache! Easy enough to find and it was worth going anyway for the rustic environment. Also got some exercise...

Found the cache with traineediplomat and aboreham - it was a bit of a hike!

found with mattstomper first find ever!

Found this one pretty easy. Great walk. Found with new member Kurtracka. TFTC.

saw a lot of mountain bike muggles going up to this cache. nice walk and very pretty up there, my two year old though needed to be carried some of the way which made it a little harder. TFTC!
