We stopped to get this one but the people at the school holiday camp approached us to let us know they have ripped the cache out as they can't have people just stopping there all the time
This cache took some time to find. We checked all the obvious spots without success. It was only after a systematic search that the cache was located. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks ozpirate for the cache.
No cars here today so we found it easy to park and grab this one on our way back to Tumut.

Did a clean up my caches here. I was surprised that a new container was put here. Anyway we have a new paper log to fill so go for it.
Full of water and log wet and replaced with paper may need to rethink chamber
Found with my parents on our way home to Canberra after a weekend in Wagga. Log soggy so we scratched around for some paper. TFTC
On another ride and decided to do a few caches along the way - Nice quick park and grab - Nice hide - TFTC
Together with Willem-Jan on our trip to Austalia from Sydney to Melbourne - Tasmania - Adelaide - Canberra - Sydney.

Together with Spade52 I traveled for almost 6 weeks through Down Under Australia. We made our trip, using a Spaceship rental car, visiting the 5 most southern states of Australia, New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia and Australia Capital Territory. Spade52 was the navigator and I the driver. We mostly avoided the motorways and mainly used the coastal and local roads that led us through many small nice and rustic villages and sleeping towns. We stayed in motels, backpacker hostels and occasionally a campsite. Luckily the weather was very agreeable during our trip with nice temperatures and very little rain. We especially enjoyed the nature, the rain forest, the wilderness, the (for us) extraordinary indigenous flora and Australia's wildlife. On our trip we visited many geocaches. All CO's thanks for showing us many interesting locations and special spots.
Today we continue our tour on the Sturt Highway to Canberra. On the way we visited some interesting spots and also found some geocaches. This geocache was easy to find. The logbook is soaken wet, because there is no lid on the cache container.

#1400 1 of 27 today.
Today B737 & I made a return trip to Wagga Wagga as we notice the RGGT trail had been maintained. I was behind the wheel this time with B737 as navigator. Jetfusalage stayed at home manning the playstation. We'd missed about 9 of the series last time & were keen to complete it. Today it was quite a bit warmer than our last trip & it was interesting to see how the scene had changed.This time it was much drier and we had our first experience of grass seeds in the socks for the summer. We really like Wagga Wagga. It's clearly a prosperous country centre with heaps of caches. But it's quite hard to plan a route around an unfamiliar town. We had a knack of seeking all the most difficult or missing caches and spending way too much time looking for them. We'll just have to come back I guess.
Yay ! my 1400'th find. We hadn't seen one of these types of cache container before, so we were not sure what we'd found.
Thanks for the cache ozpirate.

Found by Mary & David, at 1551. Second place we looked, as it was out of sight on our first approach. Haven't seen one of these used before. A pretty little spot with some lovely trees and bright green grass. Home to Melbourne tomorrow. Our thanks to ozpirate.
Find 23 + 1 DNF on a trip down to Wagga Wagga. After stopping in Gundagai for lunch we continued down the Hume highway to Tarcutta before heading back towards Wagga. A quick find with Chocolistick03, thanks ozpirate.
Whilst geo kids punch and kick their way through karate camp next door, took opportunity to pickup some local cache. Tftc.
Busy day in Tumut and thru to Wagga for me today, lots of good hides to find, I enjoyed all I managed.

Out for a morning drive, to pick up a few caches.
Parked close by, and after a short search, the cache was located.
Signed, and replaced as found.
Many thanks for placing this cache, ozpirate, for us and others to find.

Interesting cache container haven't seen one like this before. Quick find on our wagga trip tftc
Just reading logs of how its missing and joshwa27 says, there, whats that. SL and put back as found.tFtC
I found this cache way back in May but have not logged it yet for a couple of personal reasons. I checked this out a few days a go when visiting the nearby premises for work and found that the cache is indeed missing.
Found during a twenty four hour caching trip with Steeba. We had headed into the Riverina, aiming to complete the Riverina Geocaching Geotriad Tribute Power Trail in Wagga Wagga (I have found one cache of the Triad, Geocaching HQ) and the Endangered Species Power Trail in Bookham, whilst also collecting the odd cache or two along the way. This was one of many cache finds across a 24 hour period; I hope that you will forgive the generic log. We signed many cache logs over the course of a travels as "H & S."
We took about 2.5 hours for the Riverina Geocaching Geotriad Power Trail on Friday night, and 3.5 hours for the Endangered Species Power Trail on Saturday morning. Pretty good times we thought. We immensely enjoyed our trip, and thank all of the cache hiders for their efforts.
No luck for us this morning. Oh well, on to greener fields.
Cheers

Well we couldn't find a cache but we found a trinket where we think the cache should have been. So may be worth a check to see if it's still there.

We were about to give up, when this one was spotted on the ground and exposed. We put it where we THINK it ought to go. We hope it's right.
Thanks for the cache, ozpirate!

Found on our way to the 2014 mega event from Canberra to South Australia. Found with ScruffyBlake, Charli_Bear & Me_to
ACTchil and I are travelling to the OZ Mega in Murray Bridge and I just had to get some caches on the way to make my 500 before we got there. When I was in Year 10 our school went to Borambola for camp but I had to stay home as had my appendix taken out, so was good to grab this one on the say.tftc.

Found this one during our month long tour of SE Australia. It is our intention to find as many caches as possible during our stay and as a result logistics dictate that this generic log will have to suffice .Hope the cache owners, to whom we extend our gratitude for their efforts, will all understand the reasons for this.All good wishes from us both.

On the way to OZ Mega via Wagga Wagga. Nice park area with lovely trees and SL. Thanks ozpirate.
[:(!] In Wagga for the week and this was one of them, parked the geocar as close as possible to GZ and walked in from there, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes.

Sol de Lune put out the call for a day trip and I was ready for a run. We had some caches and windmill waypoints to find. Just a perfect day out and about.
The home stretch and a chance to gather some extra caches! I did a quick dash from the car while SDL provided valuable direction!

Warm day today, Great enjoyed drive on the way to Wagga Wagga from Canberra, via stop some caches on highway, easy to find as hide very well... thanks
Tftc sl. On the way home to sydney from wagga wagga and decided to stop and do a few caches. May bring our future kids back here to play.
Interesting location, amazing what you have to do to make a living around here.Found cache very quickly but as log was full, we replaced it, I keep a re-supply backpack in my vehicle for such situations,tftc
Found with paulyman on our way home from visiting family in Wagga. Quick find, log is completely full though. TFTC.
Found with snorris on the way home from Wagga. Snorris made a quick find. Thanks.
Day trip from Canberra to do the RGGT Series near Wagga Wagga. Quick find. Signed log: TNGD. TFTC!
An easy find located conveniently close to a camp we were working on down that way =)
Took a drive out this way as the youngest rhondle was unsettled. Found the cache no problem, signing it took some effort as the log is completely full. Nonetheless managed to squeeze in our name and off we went. TFTH!
This should have been easy but found it on the ground in plain sight TFTC ozpirate
Found @ 1:27pm after a weekend in Wagga Wagga for the women's cricket series at Robertson Oval
This was a quick find as this one was exposed. The log is full and needs replacing.
Thanks again ozpirate

A plan was struck with Boot65 to head down the highway from Canberra to collect the RGGT Trail as well as some extra's if we had the time. We had an extra seat in the car, so Rapidlywild joined in the trek. Not too hard this one, spurred on by the trekkers in the car after the recent snake sighting at the previous hide, FFLL no 2 was cautious for no reason. TFTC
Found at 2:44 PM GAFF1. We couldn't find anything in any "fork" or in any iron bark, so we looked further afield and then had to come back to the "fork", but this time we looked at our feet and low and behold - a black bison tube nearly buried by bark and leaves on the ground. Now is it supposed to be there? We didn't think so.
Thanks ozpirate.
Thanks ozpirate.
Heading back from Sydney to Wagga we stayed the night at Yass so we could grab a few more caches on our way through today. We recognized the location as we pulled up here as we did a fireworks display here a few years back for "Country Kids"
The cache was very quick find and sign and we were soon on our way again.
Thanks again ozpirate for the cache.

Found with Rapidlywild during another one of our epic geomissions
After our 3 day geomission in Wagga, it was time to head back home to Canberra. So how could we pass this one by on the way? I saw a subtle little geohint here, then investigated further to make the easy, little find [^]
Thanks for the cache and the stretch of the legs, ozpirate

Wagga Wagga Long Weekend Attack was now into its 3rd day. Still fighting a horrible bronchitus cough, I was starting to wear out a little. Today we started off a little later than wanted as we woke late then had to pack the tent and camping equipment up. I must admit, we did pull off some good tetris work packing the car neatly
Today was a mixture day, however both specimenX and myself were hitting a new milestone today so we planned our finds to fall into place. Today I will hit my 800th find and specimenX will hit her 900th.
With milestones reached, and the sun disappearing, it was time to begin the trek home back to CBR. We knew it would take alot longer than 2.5 hours as we intended on picking up some more finds along the way.
This one was a nice quick find. Log signed and cache returned to hidey hole.

I joined up with friends to make our attempt on some of the trails south. We picked a great day for it. The weather was kind and the caches were lots of fun. Found this one in our travels. SL..TFTC
Just as we pulled up a car was coming out a nearby garage. We had to wait this one out, but were finally able to run over and grab the cache.

The name of this one appealed to me, so I was glad we had time to stop for it on our way home.
An easy find, thanks
