Found today while in Richmond. It was on my GPS so I didn't read that it was archived but found easily and replaced as found. Thanks for the cache.

Looks to have gone, sorry for the DNF's

we don't try to find as we looked at the last few comments.
By we have logged a visit so we can see a map of where we have traveled on this road trip.

Unfortunately both caches in town are gone!?
The hint is clear and a big spot to hide is there but I didnt find a cache...

To mutch muggles.

We slept at Lakeview caravan park and I had three caches offline from Richmond. After one DNF I went for this one and this was easily found. Cool rocks Had to leave next day without visiting museum due to our strict time schedule but maybe next time Enjoyed also about 30 kangaroos and wallabees that were drinking from lake. Later at night they came next to our RV eating the only green grass available at maintained lawn.

Thanks for the cache and greetings from Finland!

We have replaced the log sheet and left a pencil.

Found it

TFTC. Log is getting a bit worse for wear.

Log getting a bit tacky. Rest is all Ok tftc

Nice easy find in our last few hours here in Richmond. We certainly saw lots and took away some great memories.

Visit to this one to show travelling parents the game! Good fun!

Found on our trip out West on the Dinosaur Trail. Richmond should be very proud of this wonderful area. We enjoyed a walk around the garden before a quick find. Just love those Moonrocks. TNLN TFTC

Found 1400hrs 18/7/2014 while on road trip around Qld. Gardens and lake are a credit to Richmond.
Thanks xr400sim for the cache.

Relogged with my new profile. Signed in logbook as Visa96.

Found. What a lovely little oasis. Well done the community of Richmond.

Day 5 of our mad trip to dig up dinosaurs, sapphires, thunder eggs and more.

Richmond received an overwhelming response as the highlight of our adventure. Everyone was in awe of the museum there. Totally awesome.

While here, we took a quick walk from our accommodation and knocked off a couple of caches.
I'd said we wouldn't include a trip "all the way out to the lake". Turns out it's not that far

I looked there and said "Nah" but geohubby took a better look (that's weird) and found it.
TFTC and for getting us "all the way out to the lake"

2 grey nomads from Vic on a " remember when " trip. searched a coluple of places before we located the cache. luckily no muggles around. thanks for bringing us here

Lovely garden , a real credit to the Gardner
Together with Aussie Fun Seakers we enjoyed this garden walk, signed and replaced

Thanks for placing this cache and sharing this area with us!

Quick find even with all the council worker miggles landscaping at GZ!!! Beauriful spot in lovely town . Tftc

Second for the day after a drought of nearly three weeks. An easy quick find only frustrated by not having carried a writing implement with me but managed to borrow one nearby. SL TFTC

Geodaughter found. Thanks for the chance to check the tucker garden. Very interesting. Added a favorite.

Camped 11 meter away.
Great location and interesting history and friendly place to stay.
TFTC

Had a nice walk around Richmond and down by the lake before we scouted around for the cache. TFTC

Didnt know this little area existed! Thanks for bringing me here, found cache easy so was very happy especially since I was having a lunch break....many caravans around today but no muggles...TFTC

Thanks for the cache xr400sim

Found it! Woohoo! Max & Nae

Geokid came up with the goods with this one. Such a nice place to go on the weekend. There were a lot of muggles utilising the area. Great cache.

Nice cache and nice place to spend a good time. Indice really helpful !!

First cache, Jan 2014

4th to find today, who would've thought in Richmond!

Nice quick find! Muggle kids playing close by - so my geo kid got to work and distracted them while I found the cache!

Nicely hidden in a very pleasant part of Richmond. TFTG

4th find On day 3 of our caching trip to Brissie. Beautiful lake here.

We have returned from Canada to discover a few more Australian caches! What a great way to explore the "land down under."
Interesting rocks in this area.
Thanks for the fun xr400sim!

Another awesome cache! My personal first find for GSSNMarsh.TFTC

Beautiful place. We enjoyed the water park further up. We saw pale headed rosellas and red winged parrots. And moon rocks

Thanks for a nice spot!

Terrific location in this great little park. Cheers

Found at 5.00

Quick find while checking out the bush tucker garden.

Tftc

Quick find in a pretty and peaceful spot with cool surrounds on a very hot and windy day.TFTC

Hi Found it nice hide Geo wife made the grab. TFTC

Love these moonrocks. Found a place way out near Middleton where they have used them as filling material for the edge of the road. All smashed up...such a shame. These ones are huge and happy to see they are still in one piece, most of them. Easy find, no muggles. I had planned to drop some TBs off but a mint tin is a MICRO not a small so just visited them instead. TFTC

Travelling west, heading towards Cloncurry on our 2nd trip around Australia.
Interesting looking rocks, but looked more like something a dinosaur might have left behind.
Thanks for the cache, xr400sim.

From the nearby Peace Keeping cache, I strolled over to the lake and had a stroll along the bush tucker trail
Not much food on offer, so I concentrated on a cache find
And sure enough, under one of those damn strange moonrocks, there was cache life
Amazing how a cache can survive in such a hostile environment [^]
Just don't try lifting the moonrock unless you have a strong-Arm (like Neil)

TFTC

After lunch, a visit to Kronasaurus Korner and a play with the mushroom and water guns in the park, we took a quick stroll, but not looking for tucker, and Lozza47 picked this one up, all good.

Not sure what a moon rock is - but do now. Didn't,t take too long to find. TFTC

Camped metres from this one. Impressed by Richmond. Found lots of fossils and love the moonrocks. Worth spending a day here!

Great little town. Excellent caravan park next to the lake.

Thanks heaps to Dentoz for providing maintenance on this cache and keeping it going for others to find. New small container and the hide remains true to its name. Enjoy!

Located on our northern adventure TFTC.

As We cannot get there for a while to see if the cache has been muggled, if the next cacher would like to help perform some maintenance and contacts us wewill let them know where it should be and what the container is.

Thanks
xr400sim

Didn't find

Looked under a lot of rocks. Couldn't find it.

Searched every where after two thorough searches could not find. May have been muggled The sprinklers didn't help either.

No luck today but loved the rocks!

Just had enought time found & put back ..then some little local muggles came along..
Love these ones TFTC

found it. TFTC

Thanks Ian and Penny, lets hope everyone enjoys the new container and it remains un-muggled for all to enjoy!

xr400sim

Thank you to 'Pricey43' for providing some much needed maintenance on this cache. At least we can enable it again. As it is constantly found out in the open and without a lid regularly, I think we will change the container type. Watch this space!

xr400sim

This was our 2nd cache in our caching run today - and we found it at around 10:22.
(So this is our 4717th total find.)

We were on a mission to find this cache, and are happy to say "mission accomplished".

Took: Nothing
Left: Moon Rock
Thanks xr400sim for the hunt today.

Found out in open. Container and log replaced and rehidden. Ready to go again.

Cache log is damp, sistema is missing lid. Needs owner intervention urgently.

South Gippy cow country (TB2N7GN) is listed in the cache but definitely isn't there. Cache owner needs to mark it as missing.

Will temorarily disable this cache until I can get there to replace container and log. If anyone is travelling through and willing to replace for us please contact us to organise. Thanks

WanderingAus wandered by on day 87 of our annual Climatic Refugee trip, making our way from Darwin towards Townsville, after stopping for a few days in Mount Isa.

We needed a spot to have lunch and I knew the lake was here, and after lunch I took the opportunity to stretch my legs for an extremely quick and easy GAFF 0 find.

My Groundspeak find No 2834, TNLNSL, dropped my WanderingAus Happy New Year 2008 Gold GC, my WanderingAus GeoMobile TB and three other travellers in for a visit before grabbing them back again.

South Gippy cow country (TB2N7GN) is listed in the cache but definitely isn't there, possibly lost when it was "scattered around the area, log wet, no lid for black sistema".

Cache log is quite damp but I was still able to sign it.

TFTC found it scattered around the area, log wet, no lid for black sistema, put back where the troll lives, But it needs maintenance. Could not sign but claiming as find. Thanks.

beautiful garden TFTC

nice lake,meet the troll nice man exchange toys.

A mere 57 steps from my caravan door! Really quite local, I guess. TFTC

Very windy day but a nice quick find while on a lunch break after half a day driving
TFTC

Well worth the walk around this area. A tidy town and the 'bush tucker garden' and lake worth a visit.TFTC. Had a trip out to the fossicking area and an interesting dig about. The information centre invites you to bring back for identification anything found. Lots of dinosaurs and other fossils in this town.

At first we thought the cache had been muggled and the cupboard was bare - but on a second look, there it was. What a great local initiative - both the bush tucker garden and the wonderful lake. Left a lucky Chinese Feng Shui coin. TFTC. 2BluFish

Quick find on a work trip

Just tracking my finds

Fortunately we had more luck near the moonrocks than we did at fossil fossicking. Great location to place a cache. TFTC.

3.45pm. An easy find at a very nice place. What a gem of a lake. And everything so well maintained.
Thank you. David and Noeline.

Nice little clue

Brahms6 found this one. A nice spot and interesting gardens. Tftc

merci

This is a great place love the bush tucker garden. TFTH

A great little town, and a great bush tucker garden. TFTC

Found it TFTF

What a wonderful oasis in the outback! TFTC

Thanks Bumsted for your much clearer information regarding this cache. All apears Ok and it is still in the correct place, easy to find and all there.

I know this is supposed to be missing but I found it easily.
Great cache, well hidden.
TNLN. Thanks xr400sim

One look at GZ and it was enough to make a Duck visit Peking to end it all. Now this Duck is not your average duck for not only can you see that I can organise someone else to use a computer for me, I have extra sensory duck intuition ( unlike The Mentalist who is only a TV actor following a script) so rather than get in a fluster, I used it and low and behold the cache was revealed. TN LN Very interesting place, would not have liked laying those deformed eggs though.

No not the rocks! give me case in the brambles of a cliff edge but not the rock pile again. After looking at the mess others have made searching through what had once been a well placed landscape feature that might gradually turn into chaos, I chose to give one other option a go and there it was.

Cache disabled until I can get there and update container and check hiding location.

Lid is missing from container so some one has stuffed the log into a pill type container with a very small neck. TFTC
