We had a quick look since flood waters have now receded but think you are right in disabling it! This one may need to be laid to rest
Nice views. Our first find. Nothing taken.

Our first find for the day. Lots of long grass and sticky itchy weeds about.
Reperio at 1400. A nice drive out this spot. Plenty of hidey holes to check, and after a minute or so the cache was located.
Gratias.

Nice little spot by the river!! took a bit of poking around to find, and GZ had a big hairy spider sat right in front of the cache.. drooped off travel bug. TFTC!!
Found this while out at Dubbo for a Zoo visit. Looked everywhere but where the cache was. After checking all other possible hides found it in an obvious spot. The river was running well and there where dozens of people fishing on the river bank later on Saturday afternoon. Thank art

Toowoomba 10.13. After a great night at Dunnedoo, it was off to Dubbo and the last keg to home. This area by the river was a bit of a surprise, I have not seen many nice areas around Dubbo. Thanks.

Arrived at GZ and thought I know where this will be! After a short search found it in a different size one. Good hide exchanged coins. Also saw my first deceased snake on the way in. May be with all the recent rain tried to move locations, or a early start not even Spring yet. Thanks.
WanderingAus wandered by on day 97 of our annual Climatic Refugee trip, and made a very quick and easy GAFF 0 find.
My find No 2897, LCC, TNLNSL, dropped Dave's Dragon Series Geocoin (ref = TB1PQPQ), also dropped my WanderingAus Happy New Year 2008 Gold GC in for a visit before grabbing it back again.

What a gloriously sunny Dubbo day for a bike ride
After picking up a vital piece of equipment at a nearby store, the rest of me day was free for a bicycle ride around towne picking up some unfound caches
I headed for the riverside first.
So it seems was half the towne [:o]
Haven't people hereabouts seen the Macquarie running at minor flood levels before ?
It would seem not judging by the constant passing muggle parade around the park
Wasn't a problem for me and me pushie though.
I just leant the bike against a likely looking spot and took a comfy seat.
Voila a cache [^]
What a neat fit in its hidey hole
With the log book signed and a fizzy cola supped I joined the passing parade to exit the area

Took about 5mins of searching, but we found in a spot. The area was a bit misleading. Geo-teen found it and we travelled off to the next cache in the area!
Nice to see the Macquarie really flowing, I have never seen a prickly-barked tree before. TFTC
Luck it's not raining today as the weather was sunny.. easy to drive thru and found it with Alchemy2.. TFTC
We tried twice to find this with out any luck....will try next time in Dubbo! (On June Long Week end)
This one took a bit of time but with two of us scouring the area we finally came up trumps.
Interesting spot. Signed the log and we were on our way.

Isn't it funny how you see other cacher names in the log book. Although 500km from home still, I recognised the two previous finders. La Kedi from a Caching event in Beijing, China and The Rats who is a local cacher where I live. Thanks for the diversion while the car was in for a service nearby.
Finally home from Oz Mega and time to log. It's amazing how often we find an easier way in after we've found the cache. TFTC
Does everything in this neck of the woods prickle? What on earth is that tree? Stumbled against it on the uneven ground and ouch! Luckily we found the nicely hidden away cache a little afterward, right before three muggle cars arrived. Popular area! TFTC ='.'=
Found easily on our way home after attending the OZ Mega Wagga Wagga Event. We ended up parking under a shady tree by the river for lunch when we saw some suspicious activity near GZ. We couldn't stop ourselves from driving up to Avagomob to give them a bit of cheek. TFTC artheserenity
We'd just been out to the sale yards when we took the detour into do this cache. After negotiating the labyrinth of tracks we soon found ourselves at GZ.
Thanks for the hunt. Left a TB

Glad I had gaiters on this morning - was dripping wet by the time I returned to the car. Great place for a cache TFTH
Found in the light rain 1445. I Did not know that a nesting Gallah made a nest this low to the ground. Quick fiind TFTC
Good Fun, In the dark, in the rain. Went a little high at first and came down to earth with a thump!~

That sucks! Shell and I were here on Friday but didn't know there was a new cache in the area.
FTF in the dark without a torch. Why do I do these things to myself ? Spent a bit of time at GZ cause I dropped my pen in the long grass. TFTC. TNLNSL. Bluedog
