As we drive our way today from Broken Hill to Cobar, this was our first stop and the opportunity for a short walk and to stretch our legs. It was raining when we packed up Camp this morning, but now the sun is out and the temperature is quite beautiful. It was great to come for the short walk here. All good with the container and log. Thanks farmer--brownDomsky

Freddo and Team Waldron headed to warmer climes around Broken Hill, Cobar, Bourke, Cunnamulla
and Charleville.

After a cold start in Broken Hill the weather improved once we got further north. Sadly our last night in Broken was wet which, pardon the pun, put a dampener on things.

All up it was a great week away and lots of caches were found with only 3 dnfs.

Thanks to all who placed and maintained their caches. The occasional cache was damaged and we refurbished it and we also left new logbooks as required.

A quick find.

We continued today our tour in NewSouthWales, AUS, and thereby searched, found and logged this interesting Traditional-Cache.

The weather was - said in one word – simply best. The good hidden caches and the being on holidays kept us the whole day in a good mood.

The cache had good coordinates, and thus was easy to find. The logbook was okay, and allowed easy logging.

Thanks to farmer--brown for the generation of this nice cache Spring Hill Cache (with the proper agenda), for leading us here and for showing us this funny location as well as the ongoing maintenance of this cache.

PS: Please forgive us the uniform log which is needed due to timing problems - if necessary special actions and happenings are there described where they appeared.

Greetings from Germany together with the hope to meet somewhere like event or wood.

Together with my son, I am on a camping trip from Sydney to Broken Hill and back. On our 3000 km journey over 11 days we have seen some wonderful little towns, beautiful landscapes and many interesting geocaches.

The next leg of our travels: Cobar to Broken Hill. Of course we used geocaches to stop for a stretch of the ol' legs.

This was a much needed wander and brain break from the 500km I have already done. I am almost at Broken hill and really needed to defog my head. This took me a little while and the hint certainly makes sense. It just doesn’t narrow it down. I managed to check nearly every single one and silly me started with the little piles. When I did find it I jumped a bit and nearly took my toe off! I left a piece of paper logsheet in with the full one and laud a pathtag beside the cache for the next finder. I love the plants!

Another early start from Broken Hill for our caching trip with Wilbert67.

I imagine this cache is not the original, as it's not the rated 'regular', for it's now a 'micro' sized cache. Cache and log are good. Some interesting rocks with holes in them. TFTC farmer--brown.

Scourching day!!! With the temps over 49!!! But the caching must go on!
