That's a very tough one for a morning walk. The only way into the cache is through a homeless camp and he threatened to set the dog on me. Very hard to find the way in through the smelly rubbish dump area or across the still water. Once at GZ it's an easy find but not at all simple to reach.
A quick find today once I figured out the easiest way to get to the GZ. I disturbed the local resident in the process though. The log was signed and replaced as found. TFTC
Staying with family in Albury for a few days, nice to be out and about,signed as RBKA, narrowed our coords and found. TFTC
Bedlem2 and Annabella02 decided to cross the creek and searched and searched then came up with the goods. Log signed
Worked out a way to cross the creek, unfortunately we spent a fair amount of time looking for this one. Today was not our day and we have to place a DNF today.
I was not able to get to the cache location.The GPS seemed to point to distant tree, with long grass to cross to get to it.With fear of snakes, I slowly tried to make it to the GZ, through the scrub, but then come to a muddy stream that I would need to cross.The cache description stated that you needed shoes, but "nothing major"!Well this was major, so the search was abandoned.
Out and about today exploring the area with Grannan55 and Geodogs. Always love a challenge. Looked for a way to cross the creek, worked that out. Now to find this little chap. Love the camo. All good here. Now onto the next one for the day. TFTC
Yeah....no. took the lead before the kids in case. Saw two red bellies after 2mtrs (absolutely not fake) . No thanks, this can stay DNF
As much as I am really keen to get an unloved, when the dog need to get bitten by a snake I'm no longer interested!
Hmm, long grass. Ok, careful, one step, two steps, thr.., snake. Forget it!. Long black one and it isn’t a warm day at all. Nearly stood on it.
Attended this cache with jackez74, the log was damp and unreadable, replaced with a new log all good for next finder.
Happy to have found this geo cache. Walked across the creek to find it. Bucrog52 replaced the log. TFTC

Grass this time of the year can be bothersome. Grabbed the cache, got back to the car and de-seeded. Tftc
With recent rain tricky to access. Nearly stood on it. Needs a clean out & new log.
our very first attempt on our debut cache was on a cold and rainy night with no success. we returned the next day and found it in less than 10 seconds. great fun, a worthy first find. tftc
One for long grass equalling wet feet and all else I can say is ditto scratchy due to log. TFTC and reason to stop!
Terrain rating was interesting, we definitely werent prepared for crossing creeks and log needs to be replaced most of it has just become orn pieces in the cache...
Still happy to be out and about but headed home now to dry our feet...

Heading to Wollongong and breaking up the trip with some caches along the way. After navigating our way across the creek the challenge was then to find the cache. Thankfully I’m not a newbie, so it wasn’t to difficult. A nicely constructed cache.

While on our way to the geomuster, we needed a Victorian cache before heading over the border so this was it.
After working out how to get to GZ m, there was a short search and the cache was found.

Didn’t find today, grass too wet and ground too soggy. We’ll try again on a dry day.
Stopped by on our way home from the Clear Waters Mega. We had a great few days and found this one for the LGA challenge and picking up some waypoints for interstate multis to break the driving up.
This one wasn't as easy as I thought it would be, thongs were definitely not the right footwear and the long grass was very disconcerting. Took a lot longer to than find than I thought it would as it wasn't really in a place that i interpreted as matching the hint but got there in the end. Glad I wasn't here in Winter! TFTC TNLNSL log a little damp but otherwise ok. Cheers

Headed out to find this twice today. Got it the second time just coming in from a new angle. Thanks for the cache.
Defeated by the blackberry bushes today... but I'll be back with the right attire!!!!
6823 Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1515. When you stand only 9 metres from gz and the water is too deep you look for alternatives. Walked that way then the other way and found that the container was at present on an island, Got across the water course and SL Tnx iamdvs,jakester12345
Found it. Was confused by the geo located then figured it out rather quickly, very nice spot, enjoyed the short journey
Didn't have a pen to sign.

#3154 5 of 10 today.
Day 3 of the HCRT trip to Albury Wodonga.
Only 1/2 a day for geocaching today before heading back to Canberra and I was riding solo this time. It was foggy this morning so I thought: why not rise above it ? So after breaky I headed out to the west Wodonga hills where there is a busy MTB community. Clearly there had been some event on over the weekend as there were lots of signs and bunting, but the trails were clear and quiet today. Lots of climbing and the odd find later, I was ready to take a break. Next I headed over to Nail Can Hill above Albury. You can't come to Albury and not visit the hill. Found a small series of 5 up there. All in all a lovely morning for some sometimes strenuous climbing, but the cool conditions made it a delight.
I thought this would be a simple park & grab, but how wrong I was. By the time I signed this one, I was quite wet from the long grass and had the cross the creek numerous times. Lovely old tree.

Tricky little hide but previous logs made the search a little easier. If your gps says another 10m in that direction then it probably is. TFTC
DNF today. I was at the CFA champs not far a way so I decided to give this GC a go between events but could not find it
Thanks for all the great comments I love hearing how you found this cache, I will try to get there over the comming weeks and give it some much needed maintenance as I hear everything is a bit wet and damp.

Took the GeoDog on a long walk this morning to this cache spot. My first approach led us to a dead end of blackberries.... second approach I had to carry little GeoDog coz the grass was three times his height!! He did enjoy a swim in the creek though, and we found a crossing that didn't involve me getting wet! But silly me ended up doing a couple of loops, including a failed creek jump, so I did get wet after all!! Luckily, my stubbornness (especially after a dnf yesterday!) paid off, and I soon had the cache in my hands! Swapped a (very fitting!) "Rock Star Crazee Bean" for two of my smiley badges. Couldn't sign log coz it was in a pretty bad condition. TFTC, the wet squelchy shoes, the prickles, grass seeds and scratches! But mostly thanks for the adventure, the laughs, and that amazing 'Found It!!' Moment!!
The log is quite wet in the cache.
The owner will need to drop by and replace it as well as seeing how to improve the water tightness of the container.

We waited for the weather to clear, then, what better way to spend a Wednesday than wending our way around Wodonga, in the good company of fellow cachers Sucoe. Our first two approachs here failed, however a more adventurous attempt had a very mushy cache in hand Yuk!
Our thanks to iamdvs for placing this cache.

Log is a mush and disintegrating - some TLC from the CO would really be appreciated by future seekers.

Suscoe had a day out in the Wodonga area in the terrific company of Phetlern.
We had a late start to the day due to the overnight rains.
But as all Victorian's know, some days can have 4 seasons and so the rain cleared as we progressed throughout the day.
We had a great day out with a good range of puzzles, multi's and traditional being found as we explored the various roads and backroads of this area.
We ended the day with pleasant sunshine at times.
Thanks to iamdvsfor placing this cache,
It is a little wet inside and needs some TLC.
We did have fun making our way in here after a few wrong ways to begin with.

Out on a morning raid but didn't find this one even with the pictures and the help from logs.. Grass is very high now in this area which was a little off putting. I jumped the creek (got one foot wet and muddy on the way back ) and searched high and low but no luck. With a a few fallen trees around and the sounds of frogs adding to the mix it said snake country so I left. Will give this another go later in the year hopefully the grass is not so high then. Thanks iamdvs.

Very tricky to get to but great fun!
The log was to wet to sign unfortunately

Found! Eventually. The log book inside is pretty damaged though and may need replacing
Fun find, bit of a truck, be careful of getting wet and snakes in the summer but all up pretty good AC
Big walk!! We went in circles before we found it, the gps really played up and led us on a very big walk! Really well hidden cache and DEIFNETELY wear good shoes! TFTC
Very tricky indeed! Had me frustrated and ready to leave but persistence paid off. Fortunately not much water around today. Tftc!
say this one out because of the creek hahah. lucky I had a manly man with me to do all the work
Had to leave my partner behind on the other side of the river. A little search, not too long. Good camo.
Tricky and clever. Glad I had long pants with the prickly plants but thankfully no wet shoes for me after a little jump over the creek. Considering the attributes I would hate to be the one pushing the stroller to gz. My first cache in wodonga for our camping holiday for a few nights. Tftc
What a lovely find after a full day of first aid information. One of the better finds we have done. Couldn't sigh though as the log was wet
Be careful of the prickly path. But all you need in clues have been stated. Thank you. Alot of fun.

One of 22 caches on a day after arriving in Albury/Wodonga for a few days while in town for the 3 Months to the MEGA Event 2015
Started out a cold morning then warmed up to a warm if not cloudy day
Thanks for the cache iamdvs

Creek wasn't fun to cross, remember there is always an easier way. The "garden path" gave us a great hint, and the "fork". Clever! This was our first spotted cache together with a newbie goepartner, he was thrilled for his first find! Onto the next!

Well this one was finally found. Was enjoyable to see one half of the Wackyweedos end up in the creek!
All I can say is that better have been an island! Cause I've got a very wet leg! Cleared the creek on the way over.... Slipped back in on the way back after signing the log. Glad this was our last cache for the day! Thanks for the adventure - feel like I've just found a T5. Thanks for laughing TheClazzas!!!!
Out for a morning walk from where we are house sitting nearby. After a DNF nearby, I had to find this one ! The GPS was jumping all over the place and I was nearly tempted to cross the creek again. But perseverance paid off. A sneaky hide indeed ! SL TFTC (No TB in cache)
Set up the caravan in Wodonga, and headed out to pick up a few caches in the area.
This was a great little exposition, we enjoyed the hunt.
Many thanks for placing this cache, iamdvs, for us and others to find.

Great hide. Enclosed shoes recommended. Ran into some fellow travelling geocaches!
Looked everywhere for this one, checked in trees and under trees. It wasn't until we were about to go when my friend sees it. And we are like WAAAAAAAA.
