Found the post but were too short the look in the top need to be tall for this one, not sure if it is still there.

One of our group had previously found this cache and after the rest of us had found the correct location, she discovered that it was no longer there.

it was easy but i needed to grow lots taller

quick find, enjoyed it

Orange 11. I needed some help to get this one, but with the right tools, it all came together ok. Thanks.

Hice hide thanks for bringing me here
Thanks Falling Rock

A challenge for the vertically challenged. Easy to get out but not so easy to put back. We had to drive the car up to it to act as camouflage while the cahce was returned. TFTC

A bit of a problem returning the cache - I know I should have grown taller. The car had to be employed as a shield and then the little steps we carry came in handy. TFTC

Spending the day at Orange to hunt some caches...Ms Bushies2 found it quickly. Thanks Falling Rock.

Easy find when picking up the kids from school.

A good quick find.TFTC

Thanks, nice easy find while in Orange.

Nice quick find, after visiting my brother.
Didn't need a GPS, just a quick view, of the groundspeak website and we knew we had to find a sign, any sign and we knew we had our location.
The cache was a little wet, so it could use a replacement log.

Found but didn't sign log. TFTC

Excellent, Only just reached it!

It's lucky one of us has his head in the clouds.

8:23pm
An easy find, the wind was starting to pickup and it was getting cooler, really need some dinner and quick!!

Cheers

Found while on the “Scenic Web Lookin” Orange mini blitz. Found under the cover of dark. Webguy had this one in hand in the blink of an eye.

Thanks for the cache.

tftc too short had to resort to hijinks to get and return!

Nice easy find in the rain!

Found this one while visiting Orange on our trip round OZ> ,,Thanks Falling Rock. a nice quick find. Silky Seekers.

One of a select number of caches found whilst in NSW for the Bathurst 12 hour race. TFTC

easy find whilst hunting with BiGSTURG!

Found with ease, nice find, short stroll from home.. TFTF!

Found at 2.50pm..Whilst wandering the streets of Orange, while Procare fixed my car. TNFL. TFTC.

A Saturday afternoon cricket match was just beginning when we arrived. How Aussie was that.
Thanks Falling Rock

Found with McPhan. TFTC

3750. Eventually found it after nearly giving up. didn't see anything anywhere until I bush bashed and there it was. Pretty sure that's not where it was supposed to be so relocated it to a more fitting spot.

TFTC and the Elsa.

Rated: for Overall Experience

A great day for flying a kite. Very windy, although the local cricket was about to start. TFTC SL

Out for a weekend's caching in Orange with Just a Cacher on a very wet weekend with some very wet dogs in tow. The first find of the day and yesterday's rain persisted into today for a wet find. The dogs enjoyed the run in the park as we made the find and signed the log. TFTC

Out for a weekend's caching with Black Bunny. We could have chosen better weather - it rained and hailed and poured and there was thunder and lightning, and we got wet and muddy, and had no dry clothes to put on. On top of that, we took the dogs, so we had wet muddy dogs, with that distinctive wet dog smell, in the car all weekend as well. Black Bunny was very keen to get a few caches, as his average was dropping, whatever that means! I think we managed that, as he came home with a smile on his face.

It was really wet here: very persistent heavy rain, so of course we all got wetter, although we had thought (hoped) that wouldn't be possible.

This would have rated as a higher difficulty rating but my 'height equaliser' came into good effect. Found while in the area for 'The Great Race'. TFTC

Got it first place I looked, although there weren't many other places.
Bigger than I expected, but still small enough to fit in a pocket.
Nice hiding spot, great park great cache.

TFTC,

Reperio at 0730. Another drive by find for this weekend. The ground was still a bit wet from the rain the day before, but it looks a fantastic area of all sorts of activities.

Gratias.

that one was a pain the rear. To actually get to with all the moggels : >

We found it really really easy but thanks for the cache.

Called in here late in the day and just as well as I am the second to find today. A lovely park and as the day was very cold not many were around so made the find much easier .Thanks Falling Rock for placing this cache.

our last for the day ! it was to be first but we read the log and found the cache was not a home !! doh ! lucky we have internet options ! a quick message to the last finder had the phone ringing later on informing us he was rehiding the cache in a few minutes, thanx heaps for the trouble and the yarn on the phone !

Easy find & nice walk to the park with the family. Attachment came off, so I took it away to fix, will replace on the 12th Augus, howeverwill depend on the ground conditions as its been raining qute heavily. TFTC

A nice quick find during a muggle free period. Unfortunately found the cache a little lower than expected as the attachment mechanism has come 'unattached'. We put it back as best we could, but it will need looking at.

Nice park but the workmen muggles made it a little harder, non the less we found it.

Quick find with not a muggle in sight. TFTH

Really easy to find once you know where to look

after returning with correct coords I can eventually find GZ , had to wait for a muggle dog walker to move out of sight, I can;t understand how the previous finders located this cache given the new coords are a good way off, but nice to find it on a cool and crisp morning...
thanks

Found it! This was a nice easy find. I spotted it with 50 meters to go. SL TFTC

Having not found a cache this month I could not let that happen so whilst in Orange doing some work I went for this and enjoyed a quick find.

The chase is on for my great mate Budokan, but with limited caches around it could be a long and arduous one. But bro never beaten.

All fixed!

Found by Mary & David at 0950. We'd planned this one before leaving home so found ourselves in a bike/walking path just off the end of Bowyer Place. Hmm. Not much chance of flying a kite here. Had a half hearted look around, before wondering if a wrong datum might have been the problem. Changed to Aus 66, reentered the coordinates and our GZ moved 207m NW to a much more likely looking spot judging by our map. Off we went to the new GZ and walked straight to the cache. Our thanks to Falling Rock.

wrong datum... my fault

changing datum

Reading the only previous find log we weren't real confident of locating this one. With a bit of local knowledge (Lived in orange for a while) we managed to stumbled across it nearby. Lucky it was dark as its quite exposed at GZ.

TFTC

found my self looking at a tree near someones front yard...and after searching a bit , had no luck

Have checked the coords for the cache they are fine.

maintenance... the fun stuff

I like a new cache that is close to my home! However by my calculations the co-ords are off by a fair bit. The above co-ords took me to an area behind housing as suggested by the map. So after a quick search I went to the most obvious kite flying place and made an easy find. Anyway thanks for the cache and like you I am close to deciding on a spot for my first hide (I had thought of this same place) so look out for it in the near future.
