Quick find while doing a gravel tour of the recently reopened Iraak river bends. Cache was still clean and dry after months of being unloved.
A quick find while geocaching south of my base in Mildura last find for the day.. TFTC.
Found yesterday while out and about. A nifty hide in a nifty spot. Never seen this lake green before.
Went passed my old work place from 30 years ago on Danes rd. Changed hands clearly.
Sparrows Guts now.

Found on a fine Autumn day for a country drive.
On the way to Mildura today for an adventure.
Not many muggles around here and a good quick find.
Just had to use a tool to retrieve the log.
Thanks for the cache Mebclever,

TFTC. We had come to Mildura for a few days escape from being travel restricted. We were to meet good friends muff1 but as they would not be here until lunchtime, we went out caching.
A Cold windy morning, at least it was not raining.

We must be caching. A two and a half hour drive to Swan Hill is taking a lot longer than Google suggested. This was a nice quick find, although it wasn't where we all first looked. Thanks for the cache.

The geocaching holiday continues with OzHockeyChick, Papi4506 & GeoTurtle37. A week so far of firsts, milestones, learning and plenty of laughs!
We’ve been driving for hours but are only 20mins closer to swan hill... must be caching! A nice quick find on the way
Thanks Mebclever for placing the hide!

Great hide, geoboy and Geomum both had the same idea at the same time. Tftc at this Lake I never knew existed. Fave point from us, we love these hides.
Reasonably accurate coordinates and a familiar style of hide led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Mebclever for the cache.
Out and about for a drive. Stopped by to find this one. Cache is still in good condition. TFTC
Maintenance run today checking our caches on this run. Still in rightful place nice and dry. Happy caching everybody.

Quirky way to start the day, with the mention of a pallindrome. A quick find, which we were happy to add to our smiley collection, on a day with many DNF's. We travelled some back roads, upstream from Mildura to Robinvale, then returning with the flow via the busy Sturt Highway.
Thanks Mebclever for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.

Did our Maintenance run today checking containers and log books. All good here just waiting to be found
Found It!
This one took me some time to locate. Eventually I had to get a tool out to get to it. Have seen a few hides like this but this one blends in well!

Muggle partner and I were very generously given the opportunity to accompany Moneydork and Tounga to Mildura for the weekend, to attend 2 events
Saturday morning we left Berri and returned there Sunday night. Between that, I found 44 caches , attended the 2 events and had 6 DNFs
According to muggle partner, it was a great weekend I asked if he was now enjoying geocaching and he said 'no. The weekend was just good around the caching!'
Some awesome caches were found and some great people were hugged, met and spoken with
The name of this cache reminds me of the friends who got me into geocaching a bit under 5 years ago IRAC
Interesting how those two names Nangiloc and Colignan are the same when spelled backwards.

Late entry, found this cache with Lord Rossatron last weekend on the way out to Ouyen to do a photo shoot. This was our first cache for the road trip it took us a little while to find it as the GPS kept telling us a couple metres differently. Used the instinct though and there it was! Once found it was in the car to the next cache! TFTC.
Found this one at the first place I looked, unfortunately didn't manage to notice it the first time and spent a while looking other places. Knowing where the gps said it should be, I got out the iphone to see where it though. A miracle happened, both gps and iphone agreed. I looked once more where I thought it could be, but with a bit more force, and there was the cache. Great hide
Find No. 1119. Found with FUF009 at 1.28pm
Heading up to Mildura for the Annual Port to Port Bicycle Ride Weekend and done some caching along the way. Had to take a detour off the main road to grab these few caches as we were heading into Mildura.
While we were looking all over the area, it was FUF009 who located this one. A tricky hide. Didn't expect it to be where it was in this area.

Find # 2628 @ 1328 H
Found with Tyred n Cranky
Once again out annual trip to Mildura so that Tyred n Cranky can enjoy their other hobby, bike riding, and in the annual event of the Port to Port.
As normal a rout was set out so that we could make some finds along the way up.
With a couple of areas that this one could be hidden, we checked over them with no luck, in the end I was off a little to a type of hide I have found only a couple of times before. A nice tricky one for the day.

A quick detour down one of the many side roads in this area, brought me to this 'lake side' view
The cache was an easy park 'n' grab
Odd name that Iraak ??
How is it pronounced ??

On an expedition to pick up the caches along the Murray River south of Red Cliffs LNTN TFTC
Today was the second day of my holiday, heading to Broken Hill from Ouyen via Mildura, ultimately heading to Port Macquarie. I picked just a number of caches to break up the journey to stretch my legs, but missed Mildura caches alltogether. Another nice quick find.
My thanks to Mebclever for the cache.

Hi back from holidays. We have repaired this cache and it is now back on line and up and running.
Apparently this cache needs some maintenance we will check it out when we get home from Tassie end of June
This was our 8th cache find in the caching run & we found it at 15:13
So this now makes our total find count 6414.
[blue]
A nice, quick find. Unfortunately the glue holding the camo lid has come adrift and there is a danger that the container will slip down its hiding place and be lost forever.
We made a temporary repair & hopefully this won't happen in the short term, but the cache does need some owner TLC.
[/blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (Around 2 metres)
Cache Condition: Container needs a repair job. The log book is in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Spider.
Thanks Mebclever for the hunt today.

Found by Roma and Max.
Another cunningly hidden container right where our receiver was indicating.
We spent many a holiday period camped across the river not far from here back when we lived in the area, and for a number of years following.
Our family loved hunting and fishing and doing all those things popular back in the late 60's!
Thanks Mebclever for this trip down memory lane.
