While camping nearby at the recreation reserve, Chook and WendyB158 took a stroll over to this cache. We had found this cache 18 months ago, so we knew exactly where this cache should have been. There has been massive flooding here in October 2022 (where the water level went to the roof of the footy club rooms!! - same as 2011), and there has only been DNF's on this cache since. Nevertheless we gave GZ a thorough search just in case it had been buried under debris, but no cache could be found. It has most likely floated away, given it would have been well under water last year. The tree at GZ is still looking good though. Unfortunately Chook did not have a spare cache with her this trip, so couldn't replace it for you. Fingers crossed it can be kept going.

DNF... searched with ChooknChunk. Definitely not where it is supposed to be

Sadly not today, did not find at 10:50amOff on a camping weekend with family, staying at the Laanecoorie Lakeside Park and doing a little vegging but also a little geocaching here and there. After a great weekend away, we're travelling home and grabbing a cache or two on the way Looks like this one is gone **Thanks for placing this cache billywillysillydilly**---If you are looking for some new caches to find, explore the nominees for the 2022 Victorian Cache of the Year Awards.The Nominations Geocaching List is available [here](https://coord.info/BMC8QYR)!Voting is also now open for the 2022 Victorian Cache of the Year Awards.

**Find #3755**

Heading home from visiting Tarnagala, and it was time for a cache or 2. Interesting story behind this cache. The river was way up as well from all the recent rains. A quick find today.

Thanks **billywillysillydilly**

Easy find on a Sunny spring afternoon after lunch and plenty beers at the pub, TNLN TFTC

Bluey and Bingo loved finding this one!

Quick find with Bogonghazy as we head to St Arnaud. Thanks for placing the geocache

We have driven through Newbridge many times over the past years, but never stopped to cache as we were usually trying to get somewhere a lot further away before dark. This weekend we were camping nearby so it was a short stroll to the cache. As we approached, it looked like it might be private property with a shed and fencing and all, but the notice on the pedestrian gate reassured us that it was all good to enter. Cache found easily and in good condition. TFTC billywillysillydilly

Awesome hiding spot. Found with Trevor_302

Not sure if we were allowed in here but we found it.

With Mrs P and daughter heading home a day early due to the wet weather I now had a day all to myself to cache to my hearts' content! So I chose to take a tour of the region and see some parts I haven't travelled to before. A few campers around this reserve but fortunately none over on this side so I could find and sign this cache undisturbed. Nice to find something a little bigger too. Thx billywillysillydilly for the hide and showing me around the district with your cache.

Thank you for the cache and hide Billy. Felt a bit weird going through the gate to this one but all good. Cache and hide doing well.

I was going to go paddling on laanacoorie this afternoon but it is blowing half a gale so i decided to do some terra firma caches in the area instead. A nice easy one here, thanks

Had dinner at the pub here last night, thought we'd check out the area more today. Nice quick find.

Found with annabella02, tftc

In Dunolly for a couple days camping with sassieold55 , we walked in the long way, and took a bit of a short cut, oh the long grass, but walked back along fence line. TFTC

Great to be able to get away again, this time - a 3-day camp at Newbridge.
I noticed there was this trad not far away at all, so wandered over (with a previous finder) to put my name in the log.
Thanks for bringing us here today by placing this cache, billywillysillydilly

On holidays touring around the area picking up random caches found quickly signed and replaced...TFTC

Nice location but map told us the wrong place to park

Clever hide

After a great night sleep at camp last night in Lockwood, I woke up early for a big day of caching through the Bendigo region, Bridgewater, Serpentine, Prairie and Echuca. A great day out, lots of finds, only 2 DNFs.

Parked nearby and walked across to find the cache easily. TFTC.

Heading away for a weekend of caching in St Arnauds with Ghihash, Locus Cache and the pups.
We managed to doge the rain over the weekend and stay dry and warm; and still get 50 caches and only have one minor miss hap where we miss judged how close a pole was to the car oops
Ghihash knocked up 400caches and we managed to get a couple of the night caches done

Go newbridge!!

The three of us were heading back to Adelaide from Northeast Victoria. We've driven past this cache many times over the years, but today we had time to stop and have a rest.

We parked near the oval and Mini Tardis and Mr Tardis walked over the GZ. Mini Tardis found the cache in the first place he looked - don't you just love it when that happens?

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache billywillysillydilly.

PS: Sorry for logging this one 8 months late, you'd think with spending more time at home due to COVID-19 we'd be getting our logs in faster - but alas, still catching up with our logging.

A massive one

Another stop on my drive from
Wangaratta to St Arnaud. Thanks for the hide.

We teamed up with Rapidlywild and headed down from Canberra for another Geocaching Victoria Mega. We arrived at our accommodation in Bendigo on Friday afternoon / evening and checked out a few caches in the area before retiring for the evening. On Saturday morning, we had a pleasant drive across to St Arnaud, arriving at the event as the opening ceremony was wrapping up, and the lab caches were released, so we joined the frenzy with the masses solving the cleverly constructed lab caches.

Sunday, day two of our mega weekend we headed over to St Arnaud to tackle some of the fire trails, and what ever else we came across along the way.

Stopping at this one, we were not sure if the area was private property, after seeing no signs we went across to quickly find the cache and startle the sheep.

TFTC billywillysillydilly

It's that time of the year again, Victorian Mega time, so its off to St Arnaud for myself and the ladies of FurfacesLL. A long road trip ahead, heading off Friday morning and getting home late Monday night and a fun filled weekend. We found many caches of all kinds of variety.. Trads, Multis, Puzzles, EC's, Virtuals, Letterboxes, Wherigos, Events, Cito's and of course, the Mega itself. We enjoyed the weekend and there sure are some unique caches here in St Arnaud, we still have plenty left to collect, so may need to coordinate another trip this way some time.

Sunday is here, after a massive day yesterday doing the StARS trails, the Challenge trails, the CITO, Events and Lab caches. Today we decided to head out to try some of the Fire Trail trails and we were not disappointed.

Crossing the leased land and the long dry grass was a bit daunting but we got there in the end. Cache easily located, signed and replaced.

Thanks for the hide billywillysillydilly And thanks to the FFLL ladies for another amazing trip away

Fun find. You have to cross leased land but it is very easy. Found with CoolGirl987. TFTC.

Felt a bit anxious crossing through long grass and leased land but a very easy cache. There was no pen so we took a photo of the logbook.

With an early evening event in Maryborough the kids and I headed off early from Ballarat and decided to do a wider loop north of Maryborough collecting a few caches. A nice quick find here - many thanks.

On my way to the 10 month till St Arnaud event and as I was coming through Newbridge I picked up the caches in the area.
A nice find once I worked out how to get in there.
Now that is a lot of water going by the photo of the flood.
Thanks billywillysillydilly TFTC

Camping trip for Christmas holidays. 28/11/18

Day 10 of our epic 12 day / 10 night trek to the Parkville Mega in Melbourne.
The constant was my travel companions for the entire trip, - Anymules and S.A. Sewer Rats.
We had set up digs in Bealiba for our three night stay. [8)]
Today our target was to cache our way to Bendigo for the challenge caches and some of the puzzles we had solved prior to coming over. [8)]
I have driven past this cache a few times and not known how to access it. Took a couple of tried today as well but found the correct way in for a quick find.

**Thanks billywillysillydilly for this cache. **

Travelling with brisal5 and Anymules.
Today we were off to Bendigo.
Had to decide which was the best way to GZ.
Once at GZ cache quickly located.
Signed BAS!

Took a little while to work out how to get to GZ, but an easy find once we did.

Thanks for the cache billywillysillydilly.

A quick find in the dark with carkisser and Jaktembo.

TFTC. In my cycling days I often cycled past Tarnagulla, being ion a time limit there was never enough time to stop. These days life is more relaxed and we take time to walk around. Today being showery, sunny, windy we decided to do a loop out of Maryborough, through Tarnagulla, Llanelly and Newbridge, caxching as we went. It turned out a long trip in duration as we stopped at the General store in new bridge for lunch before returning to Maryborough. Oh! We did manage 5 caches.
Found the access gate but felt strange entering a fenced off area. We did and found the cache without any worry.

On the road to St Arnaud to meet up with Jaktembo. JSando says, we should do at least on cache tonight. A quick easy find. TFTC.

On the way for a caching weekend at St Arnauds with Carkisser and JSando. Rendezvous at this cache 9:38pm.

Thank you

Found with Cybergran V and her Muggle Hubby on our way to St Arnaud to attend a few geocaching events.[^]

Once we found our access point the rest was easy.
Cache and contents in good nick. [^]

TFTC billywillysillydilly.

I found it and used my walking pole to retrieve it in case there were bullants, but none to be seen today, plenty of grass seeds though.
Thanks for the cache and the trackable I picked up there to take to the event at St Arnaud this evening

Ok so after failing to find the last 3 caches that I had searched for today I was beginning to feel that I really suck at geocaching. I drove around for a bit with this one & felt like I was trespassing but in the end I FOUND IT!!! TFTC

Caching in convoy with the family on an early Fathers Day BBQ adventure we enjoyed the various hides and the places we visited as we headed north from Maryborough.
Parked the cars at the gate and headed in to the cache.

Thanks billywillysillydilly for the placement.

Found on a day out caching in the company of The_Tritonz, thanks for the cache.

With a couple of days free, I headed off with Crusty K9 to find some caches. This was one of them. tftc.

A good find by me.

We've been visiting friends in Bendigo and decided to grab this cache on our way home to Maryborough. Thanks

On our camping trip we decided to grab some caches. Nice and quick find. Thanks for the cache!

Lovely sunday afternoon heading for work.
