Has the cache been replaced? - it didn't seem to be anywhere I looked.
Nothing here for 2 years!!
Nothing here for 2 years!!
Only read previous logs once arriving, Pretty sure we knew what we were looking for and definitely no sign of the cache. Maybe next time we are visiting .
I found it and it was in a bad condition, someone might have interfered with the cache and interfered with it. It needs some attention.
It is a well thought out cache! It may need a stronger magnet as the papers were strewn about. It was a fun find!
Having arrived in Wagga on Monday afternoon plans were made to find a few caches in the cool of the evening. The main event being planned for Tuesday where we hit the trail to do the series Riverina series. Great fun and we thank Hinklenator for placing this cache.
Gorgeous soring day for it. Clever hide, laughed at how obvious this is once found.
Found while on a great Caching expedition to Wagga Wagga with the WEEO, first time I have been exhausted by caching! This was very clever, but as the WEEO has one too, not clever enough to foo us (sorry for the late log). TFTC
Just had a great Caching experience with the Newberys caching the RGGT trail. We ejoyed it so much we just kept going to do these local caches. TFTC TNLN. Wagga Wagga has good caching memories for me, thanks.
Oh yeah, i put a new log in. Some of that nu stone paper that is made of stone not wood, so its waterproof and takes a bit to tear.
For TaurusSix and myself this was our 100th cache of the day. It felt really good to reach such a value.
[:(!] After spending some time in Griffith with my son and his family, today I am heading back to Albury via Wagga to stay with my other son and his family for a while, I picked up a few caches along the way and this was one of them, parked the geocar as close as possible to GZ and walked in from there, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes.

There was not a soul at Anderson Park today, making for an uninterrupted search at GZ. Lucky for us we have seen a few of these before and soon had the log in hand.

Quick grab on the way home today. Park was completely deserted, probably due to the heat, which made the find uncomplicated. TFTH!
Found on a road trip with Agent Basil and Sol de Lune. (Logs signed "WABS" for brevity). We had completed the Riverina Powertrail and were out and about for some local caches.
Our superpowers were fading by now and it took AB to find it! Thanks Hinklenator!

The 3 Amigos (huh, huhh & HUHH), aka as signed in the logs as "WABS" aka Wing6Rider, Agent Basil & Sol de Lune took to a few caches around Wagga on a very hot early Summer day after completing the nearby powertrail!
My over cached compatriots missed this, it took the less than 2000 newbie to make the find

Well it was Mission: Wagga Wagga time again. The original plans were for Boot65, specimenX and myself to go and attack Wagga Wagga and crack some of those puzzles that we have been working hard on solving. Unfortunately some circumstances changed which resulted in specimenX being unable to attend this weekend. So an inpromptu phone call was made at the 11th hour through to FurfacesLL to fill that 3rd spot in the motel room. After some quick sweet talking, we had FurfacesLL lined up and ready to join. Oh the fun is about to begin......
It was an action packed weekend for sure. We had a large number of laughs and wore ourselves out to the brink of passing out. Our adventures ranged from nice simple traditional 1/2 star finds right through to a full blown 5/5!! There was manic tree climbing (by monkeyman Boot65), Cliff climbing, canoeing, trying to crack open some very well constructed caches (often resulting in 3 "tools" getting frustrated and then all laughing at each other as it all comes apart so simply) and some long night adventures till early hours of the morning.
With WP1 of the 5/5 marked off last night, we headed out and had an attempt at WP2 this morning after getting some sleep. We had a bit of a slower start this morning, but after a feed at a local cafe, it was time to get the ball moving for a big day of caching. As we wandered over to WP2, there were a couple of "hairy" moments where I thought I was going to slip. Took us a little while to discover the GZ, would have been nice and quick however the initial "chook scratch" at the location wasnt enough to unveil the hide. With WP2 in hand, we have now picked up the co-ords for WP3 of the 5/5.
Nice simple find With log signed, cache returned, we returned to the vehicle. Onto the next cache we go
Thanks for the cache Hinklenator

In Wagga on an impromptu caching trip with Boot65 and Rapidlywild.
Another quick find here in the early hours of Sunday morning most unlike some other the other Sporty ones we have attempted this weekend.

2644. Grabbed this one with Rapidlywildy and FurfacesLL. A nice change of pace after some interesting adventures in the dark. A nice easy find very early in the morning.

Got that ole travel urge again and the need for some new uncharted places. So Victoria here I come. Travelling down the Hume Highway then West to Wagga Wagga then on to Albury. and all points South to pick up some more caches on the HCRT Series, and also find other caches on the way. Nice cache.

Have seen a few of these hides now. Spotted straight away log is wet so stuck a sticker on the inside of it TFTC
Searched until I felt that I looked suspicious. Couldn't find although GPS said I was in the right spot. Will have another go later on.
First vist the oval was busy... so decided to come back another time. Didn't expect it to be there, Nice camoflage TFTC
Wow it was busy here this morning, we didn't expect it but we think that helped because no one was paying attention to us. Especially not Oscar who had to be yelled at repeatedly by his dad to stay on the grass and not go in to the garden. Naughty Oscar. We like these containers, TNLNSL TFTC!!
Relogging this under individual account, previously a member of Gaz'n'Kab account.
We parked nearby on the road and made the quick dash from the car to the cache with moments we had it in hand and were adding our names to the log.

Got to agree great piece of urban camoflage, and well hidden just out of range of traffic. TFTC
#79 this was an interesting find first that dam instrument that i use to find the little hide had me walk right past the hide and after some miss guided instrument errors i decided to have a look at another likely hide spot and success found another and this makes my #50 small and micro caches found. the small and micro caches are the most challenging and the accuracy of the GPS is the key along with a good sense of where someone would place such an object.
Thanks Hinklenator for a great hide.
Thanks Hinklenator for a great hide.
A lovely and sunny day to do caching today...quick find by Mr Bushies2. Thanks Hinklenator.
First one on bike. Having seen a few of this type, it didn't take long to locate. TFTC.
Took a bit of poking around and looked at it twice before we realised this was it! Tftc
GPS had us a little off at first, but we quickly found where we needed to be and were quite impressed with the hide. I believe this was our first Hinklenator cache, but we will be back to do the rest! Thanks!
Despite road works being undertaken in the area i thankfully turned up near lunch time so there was very few people braving the rains to contend with. Found the cache without any trouble. Thanks for the cache, I've always enjoyed this type of container, should do one of my own at some point...
This was fantastic Hinklenator. Loved the matrix story.

Managed to find and log just before a dog walking muggle approached. Seen this sort before which helped. Thanks.
Finally found it after two previous attempts plus a extremely helpful push in the right direction from Hinklenator. Looks like I was looking in the right area all along, just not recognising the cache when it was there all along! TFTC and the education.
Didnt find it and searched everywhere! It's been a while since anyone logged this so I wonder if it is still in place?
Second attempt at finding this one. I went in the daylight this time, not that thatches a difference to the locating of this cache! A good find.

Was with Ianix for the DNF came back tonight after a clue from the hicklenator himself! Thanks, and great hide. Enjoying this sporty series. (3 down, 7 to go!) hehe!
Went out on the night of the 20th after church and took a couple of new friends geocaching but alas we could not find it.
Found with XD1 after the Wagga event. Few quick trads to finish off the day before heading back to Tocumwal. TFTC.
Found this after attending the 1111 event with Blacklegend. A few traditionals went down well after some devious puzzles... TFTC!
We found this cache but unfortunately it was found lying on the ground. We have placed it back up but it will need maintenance before it can be used again. We will send a message to the owner.
We were sure that this is the one we would easily find so we took one pill each (nice 2-way bet there on a Melbourne Cup day), entered the matrix and proceeded to search. No cache, no girl, no red dress, no agents and (unfortunately) no electricity for Wagga Wagga tonight.
Perhaps it was still being repaired and virtually not there - you never know what will happen once you are in the matrix!

#409 Found at 12.00pm on our fabulous day out with Haveanez (part 2). Good to do this sporty cache as we have done our fair share of "running around" Wagga today. Mrs Haveanez sent GeoKid into GZ to seek the cache and asked "Is there anything there" to which GeoKid replied "just this" and sure enough he had cache in hand. He must not have seen this sized cache before as there were no "I FOUND IT's" to be heard which was an unusual turn of events as that is all we've heard in the last day and a half .
TNLNSL TFTC - our thanks for bringing us here.

Found one our big day out with Skullracer1.
I iphone took us straight to GZ when Mrs Haveanez sent the 'right sized' Geokid-Little Treasure to have a look and asked if there was anything there, and sure enough a 'Just this' was heard & he had come up trumps!!
We havent actually come across one of these containers before!! Very nice.
