DNF at 2:17 PM. This was a tough cache to go and search for - the grass was high and as we walked through the seeds and dust were let go - sneezing and blowing of noses ensued for an hour afterwards - including taking an anti histamine [B)]No idea where this cache is hidden. Went to GZ where there is a nice old corner post, but nothing could be found there.

Day three of my travels around Yass and Tumut chasing caches. Drove a few back roads collecting caches amongst the traffic (lots of people were up in the mountains over the long weekend). A good range of caches before heading home around lunch time. Drove through a little part of the summer bushfire country but f I had have headed through Tumbarumba would have been a different story.

Parked here and walked through the damp grass to look for the cache. This one was like a Russian Doll - a container inside another inside another. Log signed and on my way.

Der! I held it in my hands at least twice before I "found" it. Great one Polliwogs.

It is the second day of Canberra's Invasion of Tumut. It was a bright sunny day and I'm more relaxed with no plans made. Pa, the friendly but often impatient muggle, is however ready to go again after a day off, so I left it to him to plan the route we should take, filling in gaps that I hadn't previously cached.
It was great fun meeting up with fellow cachers around the traps, walking with them at times and exchanging hints , stories and ideas . Thanks to all who attended this weekend adding to a most enjoyable experience.
Unfortunately though, I feel as if I have logged more DNFs this weekend than in the rest of my caching life.
This obviously was not one of them, so the log was signed, usually as SG, as I often do in small caches to save space or when I am in a hurry.
Many thanks to COs for placing these caches which added to my experiences.

Thanks to hints & even a photo at dinner last night, I knew what I was looking for. Doh - it's right there. TFTC.

There was a small group of "us" heading off to meet more of "us" in Tumut for the weekend. Our merry band of misfits was made up of MTrax, Tankengine, Joolay, Aquilus1 and myself. In the car we all thought of a name that we could call our gang, but in the end we decided it was a Canberra Invasion Trip that we were on so just went with CBR5. We signed logs either indiviually or with the group name.

It was an awesome weekend all up, with lots of fun with friends. We cached all day then met up with the rest of the Invasion Team for dinner Saturday night, then cached some more on Sunday until it was time to head home.

**The Cache** We parked pretty close near GZ. It didn't take long for the team to find this great cache. We did however have to come back to visit this spot to find Joolay's glasses that had fallen, but luckily Aquilus1's talent for finding things prevailed again when she could see them from the car laying in the grass. Luckily too for me as I took the opportunity to take a Baby Groot photo with the cache, but sorry - NO spoiler photos with this log! Tftc Polliwogs!!!

Found with dty73, Aquilus1, Joolay and Mtrax on our Canberra invasion of Tumut and surrounds! (Log signed as CBR5). Of course, we also had a lot of other Canberra cachers in town this weekend, and we all had a dinner on Saturday night at the pub! It was a great weekend, and I think a lot of us "cleaned out Tumut" Smile I really liked the camo for this one, so a favourite from me. Thanks for the cache Polliwogs.

Off I go with the Canberra geomob for a Tumut invasion for the weekend Big Grin Caching, dinner at the pub, lots of laughs and more caching made for a fantastic weekend with a great bunch of people Smile

Took me searching a few spots (no its not under that white thing!) until I spied something which looked out of place. The longish grass hides this one well.

Thanks for the hide, polliwogs Cool

We're heading home after a great weekend in Tumut. My lady is a little off-colour, and we're down a tyre, so we are going almost directly home. We'll stop for a few caches, lunch and dog walks. This is the first one, a nice easy grab once the GPSr settled down. Thanks, Polliwogs.

It was an early start to the day when I set out with Aquilus1 at 0600 on Sunday morning (04/01/2018) to cache Tumut with a side trip to Gundagai. In all we travelled 520kms and it took almost 16 hours to visit 70 plus caches with 65 finds. A long but very enjoyable day. Some of the highlights of the day included visiting Junction Bridge (a Truss Bridge built in the 1800s), Googarragandra River Suspension Bridge (Built in 2006 and Spanning 51..8 meters), Tumut River Grey-headed Flying Fox Colony, Tumut Rail Station and the Tumut River. We had a little time to also visit the Old Gundagai Jail built in 1859 and the Old Flower Mill built in the 1848. Aquilus1 took a photo of me at the Brungle Centenary Park using my poker to poke the cache out of its hiding spot. We had lunch at Gundagai McDonalds and snacks at Subway. This is a generic log due to the volume of all the caches that we found on the day. Thanks to Aquilus1 for a fantastic day of caching and thanks to all the cache owners for placing the caches.

I am currently writing detailed logs because of a challenge provided by Project-GC. "The Author" Badge challenges geocachers to average one hundred words or more in each log. As of 31st January 2018 my average was only 20 words per log, which seems a long way to the 100 target. However given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 100 words for a long period of time to get my average to the target. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After 2350 plus caches (which includes all cache finds up and including today), the average log length is just over 50. I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my gaol before this year ends. Progress has been better than anticipated.

It was an early start to the day that saw Darksidedan and myself heading to Tumut for the day with a side trip of some Gundagai caches as well as we travelled through. I had been keen to head off for a caching trip and Tumut looked ideal and definitely didn't disappoint. The scenery as we traveled through the area was everything I had hoped it would be and the clear fast flowing rivers beautiful as they flowed through the middle of it all.

A long but very enjoyable day, so many highlights and although we covered a large area and many caches I'm pleased to know there are many more so a return trip sometime is definitely going to happen.

Found easily enough but unable to sign. The logs has been so wet at some time that it now sits quite destroyed and unable to be removed or used inside container there was no log to sign. This really could do with a new waterproof container and log, thanks for the cache Polliwogs.

Plans were put into place for a weekend down at Tumut with one party of the FurfacesLL ladies. We headed off Friday after work and came home Sunday afternoon. We had a great weekend wandering around Tumut and surrounds seeing lots of things. The rivers were all flowing nicely and they were very clear. If it was hotter, im sure we would have taken a dip Big Grin

DIdn't take too long to have our hands on this one, signed and replaced.

Day ten of our High Country holiday. Another sunny day at Tumut with Bettyboo3747
Got out the deadly treadlies for a relative early morning ride along the river then up to the mountain bike tracks (no one told me they were up the top of the hill!)
We then travelled north and east of town for the odd cache.

We did stop at the Turnoff (we went in both directions caching!), but the cache wasn't all that well hidden. I think we have changed that. Smile
Thanks, Robmc.

# 10012. Unfortunately our last full day here in lovely Tumut. We had our early morning bike ride, collecting some caches on the way and then headed out in the geo-chariot this afternoon to find a few more. It has been a good day with me finding my 10,000th cache along the way.

Grabbed this one as we came back onto the Wee Jasper Road. The container is getting rather rusty and the log book needs replacing.

Thanks polliwogs

A bit chilly this morning, but as the sun was out, we decided on a drive to Adelong,
Tumut and Gundagai to pick up a few caches.
With lots of lovely scenery and a variety of cache hides, we had a good day out.
Most of the caches were found quickly, with only a few hides a little tricky.
Many thanks for placing this cache, polliwogs, for us and others to find.
