Heading through the mosaic AL and got this as a bonus on the way through. Thanks for the hide.
Weee, haven't been on a bridge like this in a long time. My guess, Kauaeranga Valley in the 90s. TFTC
Im taking a trip down to Victoria and couldnt pass up the opportunity to pick up some caches along the way. Having rode from Myrtleford up to Gapsted and back we decided to take the long way back to the car via this loop detour. This was a relatively simple find thanks to the clue. Thanks. #1809
So many muggles about. Looked for about 15 minutes. Couldn't find it. One for another day
I got lucky here as it was late in the day and the park was deserted.I started the search smart and so not long later had found the clever hide.Then I continued my meanders back towards town.There's mosaics everywhere! A random picture of one.Thanks Bettyboo3747 for hiding a cache at this cool swing bridge Fun!
We enjoyed a cycle around this lovely town this morning. Thanks BettyBoo3747 for placing a cache here.
Nice hide, with some protection from muggles. It only took 3 looks to find. Thanks for the fun
Useful piece of infrastructure and a quick find once the muggles had moped off. TFTC BB3747
Easter Saturday meant lots of muggles to contend with, but fortunately there was a nice break in foot traffic, and the excellent coords provided a nice quick find. Thanks for bringing us here, and for this cache.
Nice little hidey hole for vacation took a bit of time between muggles to actually be able to get him out.Now heading off for more of the mosaic trailThanks for the cache
The three of us were heading out from Wangaratta to Bright for the day, and finding some caches along the way.Teen Tardis found the cache after a short search.We enjoyed the walk along the mosaic trail.Signed the log. Thanks for the cache BettyBoo3747.
Gorgeous park -- we've thoroughly enjoyed our little stroll through this side of town. tftc
The suspension bridge was a little bouncy - just as well there were no others on it at the same time. A reasonably quick find at GZ. Thanks to BettyBoo3747 for the cache.
Another great spot for a cache found while no one is in the areaSigned and replaced TFTC
Bit tricky. Dont walk on the bridge walk under. Near the pylons holding the bridged
Staying at Myrtleford for 3 days. We come back to finish Rutherglen Easter Wherigo 2023 at Rutherglen and do caches around the area. Caching with aqau.Thanks for placing this cache
I found this cache on a short divert from my trip from Canberra to Melbourne to visit Myrtleford. A very pretty area. Cool bridge. Thanks from D B-A
Cute spot on the bridge, very bouncy bridge indeed. One of my favourite spots from my childhood when I was still in scouts.
Took about 5 minutes to find. Met some other caches while searching, turned into a race and we found it first. Great cache TFTC
We are visiting Bright fpr the weekend to run at the Buffalo Stampede. With the 10km run done on Friday we headed to Myrtleford to do the local 5km parkrun. Afterwards we took the opportunity to do some local caching & the Adventure Labs. Had fun completing this one. Tftc!
Note: The log was extremely wet so it has stayed unsigned

After completing the B2B Beechworth to Bridge walk from Beechworth to Bright over the past three days, a walk for suicide awareness, I found myself not in the right headspace to return to Shepparton. So I decided to stay over in Myrtleford for a couple of nights. I actually had my phone turned off for 48 hours. But how was I going to Geocache? I headed to the library and wrote down the coordinates and a little bit of info and then headed out the door with notepad in hand. I entered the coordinates in my Garmin eTrex 10 and off I went. With the coords and info I had written down I had no trouble finding any of the caches. Lots of options for a cache hide here, thankfully I found the correct one. Nice hide here TFTC
Took a while but with a bit of help from a photo I worked out where it might be, then very quick! Thanks
Away with Bogonghazy for the week exploring the Bright are. On our way home. Quick find. Thanks Bettyboo for placing the geocache
Completed previously as BlackOpal2005. My daughter I thought it was time to create our own accounts.
A trip from Canberra, ACT to Whittlesea, Vic with a few side quests for LGAs. TFTC.
Great to watch the torrents of water coming down the river.

On a beautiful sunny day with a full flowing Creek we found a very easy Geo had fun I’m going across the swing bridge
I was full of appreciation finding easy caches in the rain, until I got the cache and it came with a surprise! Eeks! See picture. Thanks!!!
Well this cache remained above water from the big flood (see pic taken here yesterday).
TFTC and greetings from Tassie

Doing a big maintenance run today and this one was needing attention. Removed old, scrunched up and tatty logs and left new logs in a fresh plastic bag. All good now.
Found with Jondub while doing the river trail loop. Couldn’t sign but see photo. TFTC
Will attend to the log problems when I get back from holiday after the end of September.
Very quick and easy find I couldn’t get the log book out to sign it though because it was screwed up and shoved in might need some TLC Bettyboo. Thanks for a great cache just by and awesome trail loved finding the mosaques. The bridge was super fun to swing and my dog wasn’t a fan
Well I was now supposed to be on my 6 week adventure up to Outback Queensland but with my knee failing me I just had to turn back around and head home.
So after 3 weeks of rest at home I was getting cabin fever so for the last week I just had to get out so Western Victoria beckoned so I could grab a few LGA’s and UBD Country VIC maps which would not involve a lot of walking.
So after finishing of Western Victoria I’m now heading to North Eastern Victoria to do the same.
This will be a 4 day whirl wind tour of a lot of Victoria.
After finding a couple of Hume and Hovell monuments earlier that were my target this morning I could now continue on with the maps.
Arrived at Myrtleford and I had time to find a couple before finding a Motel for the night.
After completing the Mosaics Lab I noticed a cache back here so after relocating the Geocruiser back here a slow hobble across the bridge.
Soon located the cache cot back to the car then the heavens opened up.
Plenty of water under the bridge so let’s see what it is like tomorrow.
Thanks BettyBoo3747 TFTC.

Out for a lovely Sunday walk with the family. Geo son was quick to make the find
Spot on coords led to an easy find. Found this while on the adventure mosaic trail. No pen so scratched my name with a dirty stick. TFTC
