We have now moved into Victoria, staying at Cullulleraine staying at the Tranquil Waters Caravan Park.After stop & start of the PS Series it was a pleasure to find a couple of other cachesThe weather has been close to 40 degrees each day & we are pleased to get back into the airconditioned car after each find.This was a great way to visit the area.Thanks The Wackys for hiding this cache.

Mr P saw this as we rode up. Lid on cache is broken but logbook dry and could be signed. Back to camp we go.

Gorgeous spot. The lake circuit is easily walkable and cycleable. Lid is missing and exposed to elements. Logbook ok.

4th and final find while camping at the lake. Cache container needs replacing. Lid broken

Nice quick find pity you can’t get car around even in the dry season

All good TFTC

Too tired but found it with rex46

With dot558 and surprised ourselves in completing before dark
Thanks for the trail

Message sent to co

It certainly took us somewhere tftc

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Staying in the Bushman's Rest caravan park, and today, we decided to do the circuit of the lake. Headed out on the e-bikes and this was the third stop. Parked the bikes and wandered across the bridge to nowhere. Had a close look to make sure it was safe. Had to avoid a large hole on the other side and noted it for when we continued with thr bikes. Wandered in and made a quick find of the cache in the only place the cache could be. Signed the log and then replaced all as found. Back to the bikes to continue the circumnavigation.
Gratias pro cache The Wackys

Nice. Saw from a distance, so used a bit more natural resources.

Out on hot summers day caching adventures with Wollaston. Found on an enjoyable scoot around the lake.

Container condition good
Log condition lots of room

Thanks to CO’s for taking time to set out and maintain hides and for showing us your very special part of the world

Find #7657 at 17:19.

We made our way across the bridge to nowhere to find a cache somewhere.
Thanks The Wackys for the placement.

TFTC found with Algae. Trying to fill in my stat calendar but will have to be over the next couple of years lol… as I keep missing some days. Nice day today to be out and about having a vodka and coke.

Out with Shumba7 colouring in her days. A nice spot although the bridge went somewhere for us. Carried us to the cache without getting wet.

Found on 11/09/21

It is great to find the cache as an added thing to do whilst riding around the lake.

Tftc a great evening for a walk. And great to beout of lockdown

Staying in the nearby caravan park and enjoying some daily exercise before deciding when to travel home. This was a really interesting location and a nice place to spot for a rest stop. Thanks so much for a caching distraction.

We took a little walk to this one and easily found it.
Lake is a wonderful thing.

Found with the JAMS crew on our way to Mildura to do some caching on this long weekend. Great area. We walked the final 100 metres to this cache because the road had a couple deep ruts and we didn't want to risk it this early in the weekend. TFTC The Wackys

A plan was made for a group of us, (mogni, sir_spectre, allister w, BratKat and myself) to head over to Mildura for the long weekend as the borders are now open and we wouldn't have to quarantine on the way back. [^]
Two of us spent a long time solving all the puzzles in the Turtle and Paddle Steamer series along with the other puzzles around Mildura, but they were put away waiting for the time when we could get over to find the caches.
We had a very busy weekend and managed to find all of the Turtle and Paddle Steamer caches along with some of the high favourited caches, an Adventure Lab, one night cache, quite a few gadget caches and a couple of water caches...and then we ran out of time.
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and had a great time finding lots of different caches and we will have to make a return trip to find those that we didn't get around to.
All caches stamped "Mystery Randoms" [^]

We broke our trip up and detoured to the caches around Lake Cullulleraine. What a great area, I really liked the camp ground and would love to stay here sometime.

Had a nice walk to find this one and crossed the bridge to nowhere both ways. Cache easily found.

Thanks for the cache The Wackys.

Another great spot; there are so many beautiful spots around this region; the Victorians are spoiled for holiday choices.

After an 18 month geocaching hiatus, this March long weekend I tagged along with Mogni, Sir Specture, JJ52 and Allister (caching as the Mystery Randoms) to conquer the Mildura Paddle Steamer and Turtle. We were lucky to encounter good weather, fine caches and a lot of red dust! Many thanks to 4Moule and the Mildura caching community for creating an entertaining geo-destination. TFTC! See you again soon.

A long weekend with a big plan. A group attack on the powertrails near Mildura. Two of us solved all the puzzles and then covid hit so they got put into the get around to it one day basket... Covid back under control so a plan was hatched to go interstate for the first time in over a year and be allowed to return without having to isolate for 2 weeks. Joined up with sir_spectre, JJ52, Allister W and Bratkat. We cached as the mystery randoms which suited us while well. Both powertrails were found and we managed to grab a few others while travelling around. I am usually a regular visitor Mildura but it had been a couple of years between trips. I am sure we will all be back to complete the many great caches we researched but din't have time to find. Thanks for a great weekend.
Thanks to The Wackys from mogni

After such a non event which was last year I was finally able to escape Melbourne for a well earned break as I have not had a reasonable holiday for over 18 months.
Heading north then west I decided to spend the first night at Lake Cullulleraine after spending 7 hours driving up here on the Calder in torrential rain in some parts and down to 70km/h and that is the worst driving conditions I have ever towed a caravan in.
I have found 3 of the others caches around lake and back then did not have time for this one.
So after a yummy tea at the cafe it was time for a walk to find a bridge to nowhere.
An enjoyable after tea walk and I soon came across the cache and added my name to the log.
Thanks The Wackys TFTC.

Found on a trip from Adelaide to the Mildura area for a few days of caching with Team Waldron, Brisal5 and FeatherWaite. Our main targets were the Paddle Steamer and Turtle geoart series' but we also took the opportunity to seek out a few other caches along the way.

We were fortunate with the weather. After a burst of very hot days, we timed our trip nicely to coincide with the milder conditions before the next hot spell. That helped to make both the caching and the camping along the Murray River and in the Murray-Sunset National Park very pleasant.

We ended up finding all the caches that we had targeted. Most were in good order. Some of the puzzles were quite challenging and there were some very novel and entertaining multi's. Some certainly took a bit of finding and there were many very clever and/or tricky caches and containers that were a credit to the cache owners’ ingenuity. We signed most logbooks 'B.E.F.W.'

It would have been good to have had another day or two to complete the remaining caches in the area, but I’m sure we’ll be back.

Thanks to all the cache owners for the hides.

Over from SA for 4 days of caching with Egregory1, Featherwaite and Brisal5.

We came primarily to do the Paddlesteamer series but picked up orthers as we drove around.

Apologies for the generis logs.

All caches we found were in good order.

Thanks to all cache owners whose caches we found.

Found during a trip from Adelaide to the Mildura area for a few days of caching with Brisal5, e.gregory1 and Team Waldron with the main aim to complete the Paddle Steamer and Turtle GeoArt series but also to find other caches along the way. We camped out on the banks of the Murray River near Mildura on the first night, at Rocket Lake campground in the Murray-Sunset National Park on the second night, then back to the banks of the Murray River near Merbein on the last night. We signed the logs as B.E.F.W. Thanks to all the cache owners for placing the cache!

***Generic Log unless something special above this line.***

I have seen a T shirt with Sleep Eat Cache Repeat [^] Well a four day trip to Mildura with caching friends Team Waldron, E.gregory and FeatherWaite certainly fit that bill. Logs were signed with initials only for the teams - BEFW

Up at daybreak, quick breakfast and cache all day stopping only to have a snack whilst out on the trails, rush to set up camp near dusk for a meal, then perhaps some night caching, early night and REPEAT!

Strategic camping at Kings Billabong, Rocket lake and The Common meant we were close by the Geoart and target night caches. Two previous trips in 2013 and 2016 by me and some by E.gregory meant we visited some (well quite a few actually) previous finds but that made it quick for the people that hadn't found them previously.

I can't thank the CO's of these caches enough as some were really very inventive. Even having solved most puzzles before we came we were confronted with field puzzles and gadgets that were just mind boggling. [:X][:X][:X]

***Thanks The Wackys for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. ***
Logs prepared and published through GSAK.

Tftf nice walk around the lake

Had a bit of fun on the drive to this one and wondered what we were going to find when we got there considering the T rating. All was good and the cache was quite quickly located. Thanks for the cache and bringing us out here.

Wondered what we were going to find here, lol. Thanks for the cache.

Continuing my first caching adventure with OzHockeyChick, Papi4506 & GeoTurtle37 and a mega adventure it is! Today we are off hopefully on a milestone run to reach my 2000.
An interesting drive out to this one but the cache found soon after.
Thanks The Wackys for placing the hide!

On a camping road trip to the Mildura region with Papi4506, Geoturtle37 & RoamingHowie, the main target - the new Paddle Steamer series.
Found quickly once we found the way in.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache, The Wackys

What a nice walk on a very chilly day. TFTC!

Super simple quick find

Adventuring around Geocaching with the team today, Knipe raider and kizmate. Going to smash out a heap of caches today.

TFTC

Found , eventful drive , car got a little bogged all part of the fun though.

Beautiful lake tftc

After a lovely walk in the morning, we crossed the bridge to nowhere but it did lead us to the cache tftc

Went for a drive to get the geomobile "off the beaten track" with Purrfect Di urging me on...
Ended up in Vic - who would've thought!
The tracks were fine today as the sun was setting, all high and dry.
There was plenty of water in the channel though.
Curious that even though you couldn't get a car across that bridge, the sign saying "no cars" was on the other side pointing down the walking track... perhaps a mini...
Cache is safe and in good condition.
tftc The Wackys

Easy find but super fun adventure

Gotta love the places that a Wacky cache will take you too!!
Had a nice walk in the dark, as a side diversion on my way home from Mildura...

Thanks

Cool to bad it was on the ground put it back high and dry took keyring

Camping on the other side of the lake we came over to explore this side. I tip toed over the bridge very cautiously and with relief we were no longer over water we made to short walk to gz. Miss 4 spotted the cache first and as she happy danced around the log book was signed and cache put back in place. Such a beautiful area. TFTC

Have never tried for this cache before as always had caravan today with no van took opportunity to check the area out
Easy find as mick almost trod on it
Tftc

Found while out walking with geo family. Cache. In bad shape, replaced with 600ml canister container so spot can continue to be enjoyed.

Today we cycled around the lake on our e bikes. Loved this spot complete with black swans and fortunately the track did continue on the other side. TFTC

The container has perished in the sun as has the snap lock bag, all brittle and broken. Requires maintenance before it rains next.

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

I like it

Another one off the list

A cool spot to stop and explore with friends. We found this cache whilst on our way back to Mildura for a dinner event with friends.

Well what an unexpected wonderful adventure this week turned out to be! I was meant to be in Alice Springs, but plans needed to change, so a relaxing trip to Victoria from Adelaide was the go.

Wozzle68 and I buddied up, and we ended up being great travel companions [^]....OMG, so much laughter , loud music [^], off-key singing and fun was had [:o)] [^]. We also teamed up with ChooknChunk and travelled in convoy to attend Mildura for '3 States in a Day' caching and events. What a great 4-some we made [^]....certainly brilliant dynamics [^], fabulous conversations [^] and loads of giggles [^].

Thanks for the cache The Wackys!

Found with Wozzle68 and GoodLook as part of our '3 States in a Day' caching and events fest.

We really enjoyed exploring around the Lake. The track was nice and dry - certainly nothing like your pics show.

Found this cache easily, but it wasn't high.
We looked and tried to find an obvious place where it might have been meant to live but couldn't find anywhere where it wouldn't fall down easily and then be out in the open. So we left it covered as we found it. Might be worth checking.

TFTC The Wackys.

found with a group of cachers during the 3 events in 3 states in 1 day. This was found going between one event to the next. Signed in as MM ( Mildura Mayham ). The only 1 I didn't get last time I was here because it was to wet in a 2 wheel drive and didn't have time to walk it. drier this time.

We found this one last year at Easter and have returned again for another camp nearby
Cache is in good nick some of the logs have been damp and smudged but most still readable.

Thank you for placing and maintaining the cache.

Found my in via a track, then took the short walk to find a well seclued hide. This a nice little area. We had free camped nearby while on our way to the Alice Springs Event and taking the opportunity to grab a few caches along the way.

Please excuse this generic log. I am following the 2017 Australian Solo Speedway Championship meetings that are being held in Adelaide, Mildura, Undera and Kurri Kurri, and grabbing some caches along the way.
I have done so many in recent days that I cannot do them individually. Be assured that I enjoyed and appreciated your cache, and I am grateful that you have taken the time to hide and maintain the cache.
I really enjoyed visiting this spot. Thanks.

Decided while the weather was good today, Lord Rossatron and I would attempt at a couple of caches as we are having trouble finding ones we have not found locally we decided today to go for a short drive to Lake Cullaraine, was a nice afternoon! Had not been out to the lake since 2005 for school camp! Was great going back out there, really is very pretty.

This one was fun, ha! also another beautiful place!! Probably my favourite, i could see a nice photo shoot happening on this bridge i really enjoyed it (We are photographers). We drove until we thought it was no longer safe to drive, ha yes we seen those big ditches in the road... guessing someone got bogged here, we tried walking over them at first and we were slipping and sliding, I nearly did the splits a couple of times. Really was the scariest experience We then came to this bridge!! It was beautiful, for some reason I was really looking forward to the bridge, i would have been so depressed if they said bridge coming up and it was just a grid bridge or something like that, but no alas! it was an actual bridge, a gorgeous one at that..... of course we took some selfies on it, and a beautiful panorama of it

Thank you so much, for bringing us to this beautiful location!! I hope to come back here one day!!!

Had some time to kill so we popped over to the lake to knock of a few more caches. Initially I wasn't to sure if we would attempt this one as the wetish weather lately has me un easy about dirt roads. (its always me who has to try and dig the car out when we get bogged)
we crossed our fingers and got within about 100 or so meters then stopped as it seemed like a good place to turn the car around and we didnt know what would be ahead. lucky for us we chose to do that as it looks like someone has been bogged there before and on the walk over we were slipping and sliding all over the place.

we stopped at the bridge to take a few photos then went on to nab the cache. Thanks for bringing us here

Tftc

Walked around from the 'lovely lake view cache'.
Pelicans, swans and lots of ducks were spotted on the water today.
A fave for bringing us out to a potentially new fishing spot for the kids.
Left a bunch of souvinier pins.
TFTC

Camping here as we have done for many years around Easter but never knew what caching was until last year
Been walking past these all that time
Thanks for keeping them here

Drove carefully to within a hundred metres or so of GZ I walked across the bridge and a bit more to make an easy find. Loved the waterway as I recrossed the bridge to a cache TFTC The Wackys

We have returned from Canada to discover a few more Australian caches! What a great way to explore the Land Down Under" ...

Drove in as close as we could get and then walked the last 100m. Very serene.

Thanks for the fun The Wackys!

On a caching trip towards South Australia with J+J.AU. We did many caches on our way and had a great time. This was one of them and hardly any did disapoint! Would do the hole trip over again tomorrow if I could.
TFTC Wilbert67

On a caching trip with Wilbert67, we stopped by to check this location out and and was quite impressed with the landscape and the facilities, lots of activity on the lake. Very nice. TFTC

First for the day after camping last night at Lock9. Thought the access to this one would be too hard on the campervan so unloaded the motorbike and headed to this one on that. As it was the conditions were ideal and I'm sure the van would have made it easily. A quick find at GZ after walking from the bridge. Thanks.

Freaky place picked up tb sunny the farm goat

easy find...hard to get there via 4x4 better off walking

Found this on a lovely walk with my girlfriend, always came here as a muggle but never knew about these caches
Tftc

Forgot to log, left a trackable.

I headed here from the north today and followed a sandy track in to GZ
But at about 200 metres to go, the track became a bit too boggy to risk driving through.
I've learned me lesson about driving through boggy spots in the last fortnight, when I got stuck for three days trying to dig the geomobile out of a mud hole at Bael Bael Game Reserve

So I wandered off on foot.
And found a bridge !!
And a walking track !! [:o]

I wish I had 'ave known.
I would have dropped the geomobile in Cullulleraine and gone for a bike ride around the lake to find the caches

Anyhoo !! Here I was and the cache was a nice easy find once I crossed the bridge that I came to

TFTC

Quick find after a lovely drive and walk by the Lake. Tftc
