This one had us stumped for a while but we finally got there sad to see that it has since been archived tfth and the interesting hunt
We were going to stop at the Ball of Steel cache before this one but the police had just pulled someone up right by the ball, so we thought it advisable to give them some privacy. Next on the list for on our way home from Jindabyne to Canberra was this one. Looked at a few spots first off and knew it was going to be pretty clever because of it's favourite points. Took about ten minutes to spot it, what with trying to look like I was on a mobile call when cars were going past, lol. My muggle friend and co-driver actually suggested I look where it was very well hidden - and BINGO, there it was. Almost impossible to see. Clever hide and cache. Thanks Black Bunny! [^][^]
Nice sneaky hide.
Saw a plane towing a glider in the sky above!
Cool stuff .
Thanks for the hide!

This was a bit tricky but the Reluctant Companion soon had the prize. TNLN TFTC
Great little hide loved the cache. The Reluctant Companion was right on it. TNLN TFTC
Awesome container. Nice easy find on the way home from the snow. Thank You!!!
This cache was found as part of team M-SEZ's amazing 6 week family caravaning holiday adventure! We spent this week staying with family in Canberra, and the weather today was perfec for a day in the snow.
We grabbed this cache on the way home. We tried this one 18 months ago, but there was a muggle mowing the airstrip on a tractor. All clear today, but it still took me a while to spot it. TFTC

A plane towing a glider took off while I was locating the cache . Thanks Black Bunny FTC.
A few CCCs tackled today and this one was a quick stop- interesting to see an ammo can in the field ! TFTC!

Awesome container!

Nice sunny morning on way to medico in Canberra. Had given up, but something wanted me to look at a different angle. Glad I did not have to go through fence. The log book needs replacing, getting a bit worn.
The clue was a good indicator for this cache but I searched and searched and thought it should not be this difficult. Suddenly I spied something in the long grass behind the fence. It was lucky I happened to have a grabber in the car and was able to retrieve the cache as it would have been hard to climb over the fence. I have put the cache back to where I think it should go but will email Black Bunny to get them to check it is in the correct position. Great idea to have all these caches on the road from Canberra to Cooma. Thanks.
DNF unfortunatly. Ann0b3lla and I wanted to see what the 'cute little container' was!
If i didn't stop for every single cache i havent done yet, on the way back to canberra, it would of taken me an hour to get from Cooma to Canberra.
I'm glad i did stop.

No joy for us today. We had a good look around but came up with nothing.

Nearly went flying by as the GPS couldn't keep up with the car (or the driver). Nice cache and a great place for a find. TFTC. JenneG & Budgy
Nice spot but no aircraft today. Top little container- where can you get them?
We almost flew past this one on our way home from Jindabyne. And I can't believe it, but we almost DNFed this one. I noticed one widgit spot where it could have been, but failed to see that there was a second. Doh! The WaywardWoman noticed it just as we were about to walk away. How embarrassing! Thanks
#1390- Unlike some previous finders, we have seen these before. I was expecting something of a different ilk when I read their logs. It actually took a little while before we spotted it. Thanks.
The day of Geo to Cooma and great enjoyed drove on the way to Cooma, easy to find as hide very well thanks
On the return trip after visiting family in Cooma. Struggled to find this as my "caching eye" is a bit out of practice! Spotted by the muggle partner...how embarrassing. Lovely little cache....first one like this I've seen 'in the wild'.
Thanks for the cache. Cheers, svn07

Was beside myself when we retreived the container....nearly swapped it.

Final for the day, nice little cache. No aircraft about unfortunately.
Thanks for the cache and the series.

Today was the sixth day of our excursion out of Tasmania touring from Melbourne to Canberra and return via Gippsland. We visited a number of towns and areas today between Cooma and Queanbeyan in New South Wales and we were lucky enough to find some caches along the way. As happened yesterday, the day started very foggy but cleared quickly to a fine day with changing proportions of blue skies and broken cloud. Having spent the morning in Cooma, it was time to start heading towards Canberra. However frequent stops were in order to look for some of the many caches along the way. As there was quite a deal of road traffic, we decided to limit ourselves to caches on the left hand side of the road as we headed toewards Canberra. This cache was a quick find. TFTC Black Bunny.
A break on the trip home was rewarwded with an amzing conatiner! We also spent some time watching the gliders and chatting with the pilots. TFTC.
A quick find and an awesome container! Arrived at GZ just in time to see a glider touch down. TFTC!
Find number 2 for the 6th day of my trip to the Mega Event. Find number 67 for the trip so far. Found at 1035hrs.
Nice easy way to beat the point to point speed camera, stop and find a cache or 2. 2nd of these containers I have seen on this trip.

41 of 50 caches found today on a mission with geo-bro ayepeacee, found at 2130h. Oooh, we love these containers, they are so awesome! Zita was being a smartarse saying what the hint would be and then afterwards, Enzo said that it was exactly the hint! Hilarious. TNLNSL TFTC!!
1st of 3404th total find at 06:41
On the spur of the moment, being awake at 04:00, we decided to do a cache run from Cooma to the outer suburbs of Canberra. After suffering "Cabin Fever" for the last few days, as we have been forced to stay indoors because of the rain, it was a really welcome change to get outdoors and enjoy the fine weather.
It was still dark when we attempted this one, after a breakfast of egg & bacon McMuffins at the golden arches.
Took: Nothing
Left: Nothing
Thanks Black Bunny for the cache

I had to wait a bit while someone drove into the airfield, but that was the only holdup for this quick grab. Thanks.

Stopped by on the way home from a walking/caching weekend in the snowies. Easy find. There were a couple of gliders being towed up, looks like a fun way to fly. Thanks.
I've passed this airfield many times enroute to the coast and even thought I doing a flight on one of the gliders, oh and loved the container.. nice
Parked 15 metres from GZ, but didn't want to draw the attention of a mower muggle on the airstrip with his tractor.

Returning from a day at jindabyne making a snow man and tobogganing.
Miss 4 had been dying to do it all year so luckily there was some snow left.
Having completed the northern part of this trail it was an excellent opportunity to complete the southern section.
We enjoyed all of these drive bye caches and it was an excellent afternoon for a caching drive.
What to say about this cache.
Too damn cute!

Headed down to Cooma and beyond today and grab this one on the way back. Took a few minutes to see it, but all was good once spied.
Thanks BB

Ingenious hide and what a cute little container, a nice quick drive by on our way home to Canberra.
Loved how this one hidden. Interesting spot too, but unfortunately no gliding today.
Found doing the Cooma run with MrsJmanJezza and the geokids.

Found on our way back to Albury this morning. Pulled up right at GZ and spotted the cache - a cool container.
No gliders about this morning but the GeoKid was searching hard.
Popped it back into it's hidey hole but it kept wanting to pop back out.
Thanks for the cache Black bunny.

A quick find once we took scale of the problem on our way from Wodonga to QLD over the Snowy Mountain's.
Have a fairly large TB I was going to put in this ammo tin cache but that will have to wait.
Cache and Log both in good condition
Loved the cache container.

This cache turned out to be a great find for us. Having camped at the Popular Rest Stop, we headed here first thing and Trev was standing near the gate when a member drove up and invited us in. After logging our find, we headed in with Trecaz Trakkie TB and after having a detailed gliding 'show and tell' by member John, we were able to see a couple of takeoffs and a landing before we continued on our way. Thanks Black Bunny for the cache and thanks also to the members of the friendly club who made us so welcome.
Ah - a CCC cache I was still missing! Maybe I've completed the series now? Nice little hide. Found on my way back from a couple of FTFs. Watched the gliders getting towed up, thanks Black Bunny.
