Found this cache in a muggle free location. Log was signed and then put back into place. TFTC.

Staying in Mildura for a short visit with ilook4geo and picking up a few local caches while out and about. Thanks go to doheng for this cache placement. Sadly, the container is badly broken and definitely needs to be replaced.

Container broken and not weatherproof.

What a historic location. Recovered well after the floods where you can still see where it got to.

Will have to come back when it's open.

Southern Autumn adventure Day 56. Mildura Trip Day 5. Everyone from Canberra has now headed off and I have a couple more days here. I did move from Red Cliffs to Mildura Central today, so that took all the morning. Once I was set up, I headed down to the river by the Psyche Pumps to try and get to as many of the caches in that area done before it got too dark and then do a night multi. Apart from getting cold, I was really happy at how well the area has dried out after the flooding, and it is excellent that so many caches have been repaired or replaced this year. That is very encouraging.

I enjoyed a look around the grounds of the pumps area and came up with some numbers. It was a challenge finding the correct track to the cache, but once I found the right track I was almost all the way to the cache which was found without any problems.

Thanks for the cache doheng

Very interesting place and well worth spending some time here. Suspect there would be times when getting to gz would be more than difficult. Today wasn’t too bad except the track shown on my gps wasn’t correct.
Thanks indeed

So glad I took the advice of locals and drove out here. What fantastic history and thank you so much for showcasing it. Now I know why there are so many Chaffey streets, bridges etc. And what a wonderful thing to come back and witness, the firing up of the station. Once again, thank you for incorporating this into a multi...!

A great location full of history. After crunching the numbers I took a short drive then a shorter walk and the cache was soon in hand. TFTC

Looked around quite thoroughly, but did not find it unfortunately.

Camping nearby so went to find the cache. Pumping station is quite interesting and a really nice walk to GZ. All in good condition. With Bluebeardoz. TFTC

Stick to the path as much as you can. Lovely historic and natural area. Cannot drive to final point ATM with Mannyisom. TFTC

Access was restricted but found another way in.

Took keychain, left novelty pen

A sudden hot day at our lockdown campsite has encouraged us to get some evening exercise. This area has such beauty that we would have missed if not for your geocache. Nothing taken nothing left. TFTC

Am loving solving multi caches....then learning U did everything right....cause U discover the cache..

I don't know if it is gone or if I just can't find it

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.

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.

TFTC

***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]

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!

Great bushwalk.

Found with hubby and kids. Thanks

Found

This was the last cache for today. It was a nice quick multi that was also found quickly. Thanks for the cache.

Another great day of caching in and around this area. Thanks for placing this, and other caches for us to find.

Day five of a camping road trip with Papi4506, Geoturtle37 & RoamingHowie.
With NSW now out of bounds, today we focussed on Mildura.
Nice quick multi. Once we had all the info, we made our way to gz for a quick find.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache, doheng

Continuing my first caching adventure with OzHockeyChick, Papi4506 & GeoTurtle37 and a mega adventure it is! Last day in town nabbing a few caches.
Final find for the day
Thanks doheng for placing the hide!

A relaxing day beadling around on the Victorian side of the Murray River. Visited Kings Billabong, the old pumphouse, gem shop, and picked up marmalade at Orange World where I was misinformed about how to make a flat white ️ The weather has been purrfect here every day

Nice bit of local history at the Psyche Bend pumphouse, then made my way via increasingly dodgy dirt tracks to GZ Remind me why I washed the car this morning It really was the middle of nowhere but had a moment when I got out of the car. Spectacular view!!! Guessing that’s a salt lake, eh? Took a pic before scuttling to GZ to log the cache.

TFTC Dropping a FAVE point on this neat multi.

Enjoyed camping just along the river from here. Went for a paddle to the Billabong yesterday. Interesting area. If we had been here a few days earlier we wouldn't have been able to access the final location as they had an inch of rain. Thanks

Yeah, first multi cache we have done over the moon tftc

Enjoying dusty Mildura this week. Seriously. half the mallee topsoil followed us into town
We are holidaying together as a family team, so logs with the team Mattycat stamp include Purrfect Di, Jack, and Sebastbat as well as teen muggle Alex.
Some may get some initials as well All have made us smile
Mildura and surrounds certainly have some notable caches.
Many well constructed hides and clever clues. Well done to the local caching community

A fun and educational spot here, some history, and a great drive down to GZ.
Enjoying the drive around the river today.

tftc doheng

Due to a dust storm coming in once we had the coordinates we were unable to complete. Going to try again another time.

Boiling hot here too and what a surprise GZ is at this time of year. Mildura heat! Cracked 40 degrees out on the bike but some tree cover and tragic obsessive behaviour had me locating a few more caches - and that’s after the 6th puncture! So just a few more before departure to Melbs to collect car and then maybe head home to NE Vic IF the roads are open. Thanks to the Mildura CO’s for so many fun, interesting and challenging caches. Cache heaven!

Suscoe headed out this afternoon to find a few caches to the east and south of Mildura.
A lovely sunny afternoon.
We enjoyed the trip around the area and we were delighted with the horticulture of this region.

Thanks to doheng for this multi.
A very quiet wlak to GZ.
Cache found but the remnants of the old cache made for a sad sight, then we saw the new container.

Today the Pumps were up and running so we popped down here for that, then found a few caches on the way. Got to GZ and quickly figured out the coordinates then waited for the pumps to start and have a look at that before locating the cache. Definitely 4x4 terrain and when I decided to take the small car and we got out there Geokid proved me wrong that we should of taken the Ute. Oops. Anyway thanks for the cache doheng.

Found today while exploring the Psyche Pump area. My target cache was the nearby Psyche Pump trad due to its age but found the drive and final location of this one to be much more entertaining! Listening to the daughter laughing and squealing in the back seat while going over the dips and bumps was worth the trip alone!
Quick find at GZ and on our way again. Thx doheng, FP added for this one!

Too hard

Travelling around Australia, camped on the mighty Murray today we headed out to see where Geocaching would take us. We found your cache during our explore.

collected the info yesterday but were in the area today to make the find.

picked up the trackable.

TFTC

A interesting bit of history then an interesting little drive to the cache. Thanks for an enjoyable adventure. Dropped a TB.

Solved this one months and months ago bit redid it again, with no one at the pumps. Definitely not a 2wd track in to the final location, pretty choppy. Lovely to see that the original cache which was has mostly disintegrated has been replaced with another in great condition, still with the original log book. Tftc!

Wet and slippry fun on the long weekend. TFTC. The main box for the cache has totally fallen apart now and needs replacing.

Ok l don't know why but l have been up and about Mildura plenty of times over the years but never ventured down to the Psyche Bend Pump Station. Today though l thought l would come down and check out the multi but ended up having a wander around the old pumps and steam house as they were in use due to them being open to the public. My two young sons and myself enjoyed the walk around and the machinery and made the most of some nice sunny weather to work out the co-ord's and then set off to the final gz and made a quick find. l replaced the cracked container with a small sistema container l had in the ute but is not a true reflection of the size listed. The logbook is out of the weather at this stage, but could do with a larger container to replace the one l left.

Found with Ww2_nut Family Forgot to log back on 26th tftc

Found this cache while having a family outing to Kings Billabong. It was interesting reading about the history behind this area. The cache itself unfortunately has suffered in harsh summer sun and has become brittle and is no longer watertight. The log is still in good condition for now but the container needs replacing. Swapped a spinner for a army man TFTC

Nice easy find after a good ride with the geofamily. Found with geofamily 4moule

Found it

Stuffed the cord's up last week but solved them at home. Container needs replacing the sun has got to it. The last 60 mts is like a maze. TFTC

TFTC. Late last week we had been here and collected the necessary information. Not having enough time we came back today to find the two we had left behind. Drove the Terios to about 500metre to go, then walked to GZ for sn easy find.

Enjoyed a few days holidaying at Mildura. Found some great caches and a little bling. (Also left a little bling for the next finder)
TFTC

Sweet multi with a not too difficult first stage and an short trek to the final locale. Found during a day at the pumps. Thanks again Doheng

Great find

Nice hide! Went on the wrong side of the water at first but finally got to the destination!

Nice easy multi, really got to stop wearing thongs doing these ones in the bush haha, container needs replacing, really cracked up from sun damage, TFTC cheers DD

Got the coordinates and will look for them at a later date.

Easy find, quite enjoyable too! I like these kind of caches!

TheCatBandits family cache day out. Thought we would give this one a go while down here no idea when we will get back over this way. Found without to much trouble TFTC

Had an enjoyable time looking for this one, found the answers to the questions a few days ago while in the area taking some photos. Came back today with the plan to take more photos of the surrounding area of GZ. Quickly found the cache and off to take our photos. not the nicest smelling of places but a lot of fun.

I found this while in Mildura for a speedway meeting. It was a most enjoyable weekend. tftc.
Crusty.

Seeing we had made the long detour here from Bruce's Bend we thought we had better check out the caches in the area. Did the normal cache first and then tackled this multi. The information was quickly obtained and the GZ calculated. I have no idea what our GPS was thinking but the way she took us close to GZ was even dodgier than the tracks we had been on from our camp spot. We were pleased to find a simpler way out once making the find.
The next operational day at the pump is the end of September and unfortunately we will be well gone by then. Pity as Mr Beetle loves all this old stuff. Thanks.

Great spot down by the riverside
I would love to visit on one of the days when the contraption is fired up

** Next running day is September 27, 2015 **

With the answers worked out, and a GZ at the right distance away, I eagerly set off to find the cache
A lovely stroll through the wastelands.
There are far too many vehicle and dirty bike trails through the area !!
And after 'bout 15 minutes of strolling I made it to GZ and a quick cache find

TFTC !!

An interesting bit of history and hard to imagine the water up to the level of the 1956 floods. Mr TiedyeSmileys did the work on this one and Mrs TiedyeSmileys was doubting his maths skills as we drove through the scrub to GZ (this is usually the other way around for all the puzzles Mrs Tiedyesmiileys solves). Despite her doubts (both about the position of GZ and ability of the TiedyeSmileys geovan to drive along the track to it) the cache was quickly found.

TFTC

Visited this a month or so ago and for some reason log didn't process (maybe no reception!) Picked up travel bug and will be moving it north-east shortly.
The family enjoyed this cache!

really interesting place. i'll come back when the pumps are operational next time. great mystic atmosphere around gz in today's weather. TFTC!

TFTC

Oh wow, this cache hasn't been found in a long while.
I'm happy to say, that it is still there and in good condition.

I found it whilst staying a night in Mildura during my trip from Hay to Adelaide.

TFTC, Mark

A swarm of steam enthusiast muggles had the run of the place when I first turned up.
So I did the other caches in the area and returned to this one. TFTC

Camped at Psyche Bend. Don't do many multi's but this was nice and easy. T.F.T.C.

Oh no!!!!!! Thought that as this geocache hadn't been found for 5 months that we could grab Susie the Swan TB to take with us on an overseas holiday to USA. Imagine our surprise when we saw a car in the distance on a mostly inaccessible track. Happily they were 200m from GZ so presumed they were muggles, we waved to them happily and ventured on. Discovered geocache but TB was missing. Entry had just been made. The geocache lays undiscovered for 5 months and then is found twice within a matter of minutes!

Got excited about our first trackable only to be pipped at the post five mins earlier. Accompanied moiramappers Terrain pretty ordinary need 4wd. Long pants lots prickles TFTC. Could be dangerous In summer for snakes TNLN.

Nice walk with Jraz and some family. Tftc

Went for a short drive and stroll with Roffer and the family. Grabbed the info from the signs for the new co-ords and headed down to make the find. TFTC.

Sorry doheng for the generic log but I'm trying to catch up on my logging, I currently have over 1000 to log before hitting some powertrails in the US after the block party next week. As always I enjoy the hunt whether I'm solo or with some of my caching or muggle friends. Thanks to those who have accompanied me to make the day more pleasurable and many thanks doheng for placing this cache.

Great cache. Couldn't find it for awhile then realized we had the wrong coordinates. Great spot. Love the scenery.

We finally got a chance to do this one today, after driving past many times on other caching expeditions. Once we had all the clues sorted we were off, glad we came in the ute. It was a great day for 4WD'ing. With the Geokids driving the GPS, we soon had the cache in hand and they made some swaps.
TFTC

Found in the dark following Bunyip Night Hunt. Had not read the hint, so I was worried the coordinates were wrong having driven so far to get there. However cache was soon in hand. Thanks doheng. Took TB.

Yep got the spice tackable. TFTC Doheng.

This cache gets a favorite from me.

Love a bit of history and the walk is awesome.

I started this cache just before 8am in approx 5C temp.

Not a cloud in the sky.

Spotted 3 roos on the trek and as I approached GZ I thought the co-ord's may have been incorrect.

Soon enough though I was signing the log.

TFTC

Nice remote spot. TFTC

Found with Kev The Sidekick. We too took the bumpy track in, but found a better on to go out on. TFTC doheng.

Found with miyagi_sensai. This road definitely tested the little Hyundai i30 that I have been driving around Mildura but was a very interesting area that I never would have seen otherwise! tftc

Found this on our Houseboat holiday, the only spot we were able to moor and I could pick up a couple of caches.
Found the Boiler info very interesting, then put in the coords for the 2nd part, which gave me 7kms away! Did the other nearby cache, then put the coords back in, to find it was 700m away, so took the trek the find the cache.
Thanks doheng, enjoyed this multi.

T: Badminton game which provided a few hours enjoyment on the Houseboat.
L: Keyring.

Found with Brutale. Nice bumpy track in glad we found it. Tftc.

So glad we didn't walk!

Yeah:)!

sorry missed logging this one on the day love these ones along the river tftc

It was getting late when we arrived at the first waypoint and found the caretakers about t leave. Being a visiting Ulyssian has it's privileges, they opened up the building and told us all about the pump. What a fantastic place. After they left we gathered the info and went for a walk to GZ. We have certainly got more than our 30 today. SL TFTC

Found last Sunday during an afternoon of caching with Crystalwaters, XanthieSux & Geodog.

Yay another one thats been on the list for a while crossed off thanks for the cache

We had to recheck the co-ordinates on this one as geo husband was reading the questions wrong
Lucky we had the 4WD as the track we chose comming in was rather rough, found better one comming out
Nice eay find thanks for the cache

Dry conditions helped us in the geo-motorhome. The coords were calculated and off we went to GZ, a short walk dodging the spiders and found the cache quickly. On the way out we noticed a skull that may have been of a wild pig ? Our pace quickened back to the geo-motorhome.
