A quick find with frmen1. Container lid is almost in pieces. Needs swapping out please. TFTC
Quick find thanks. Accurate coords, container could use some attention, we didn't have a spare.
Easy find, tftc another for my LGA count cache needs maintenance, container crumbling
Out on a weekend out west. Thought we would loop around through Emmaville and find a few caches. Added a new log to this one. TFTC.
We were passing through town and decided to grab a couple of caches. After finding last post and not being able to open it I decided to head to this one and see what I could find.
A nice quick find and sign. Then off to explore new places.
Thanks for placing this cache

Coming from Sydney I must say this is a bit of a sad bridge haha
Cache container needs a lot of TLC, cracked when I opened it and lost a flap

Cache container is missing a part and likely needs replacing, doubtful it's still waterproof
Stayed overnight in Glen Innes and spending the morning in the Emmaville area before heading off to Tamworth for a few days. Spent a lovely few hours out this way exploring places that caching is taking us. Many thanks to the COs for placing and maintaining these caches and enhancing our visit.
Out and about caching today in the Emmaville district after driving from Glen Innes. Thank you to the CO's for the placement of these caches and bringing us to spots where you would otherwise drive past. Cache found, log signed and cache placed where found. TFTC
With a couple of hours to myself, and Emmaville & all its caches being so close, I made way here for some caching.
The cache was a quick find, but the container is now quite brittle & is no longer waterproof. TFTC.

With black clouds above and rumbling skies we were so glad for a quick find here. The cache was found in good condition and we gladly signed the log. It’s been a while since it’s last find so we added a pathtag to the cache. Thanks for placing the cache here cricketmad. You must be enjoying the cricket season just now.
Cheers and happy caching!

While in the Glen Innes area we travelled the locallity exploring the area and stopping for caches. This was one we targetted and found. On our day out to got to explore an old mining area in Ottery and also found a good place for lunch in Emmaville at the pub. Thanks to cricketmad for hiding this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.
After getting to Glen Innes yesterday, it was time to do the caches around the immediate area. Out with Liz and Bruce for the last day bfore we part company. Great caches in the area and a few more klm logged in the car.

After being away for a short break over the Australia Day weekend and staying in Glen Innes it was time to head back to Brisbane. Emmaville was a nice little detour and we visited here early last year and did a couple of caches then. Today we thought lets do a tour of town via the local caches and try to find the ones we didn't last time.
This was an easy find.

I am still on my way home from the OZ Geomuster Mega event held at Morisset over the Easter week-end.
I arrived in Emmaville late yesterday arvo and stayed at the fantastic caravan park.
Nice and quiet, mowed lawns, electricity and clean showers and toilets all for $10 for a solo traveller.
So this morning I headed off around town to find all of the geocaches. In the end I DNF'ed just the one. [^]
A quick find here in the usual spot. [^]

Picking up some smileys while having a short break in Glen Innes on my trek back to QLD from the Mega. A quick find in a common hide. TFTC.
Called into Emmaville on my way to Ashford. Have been here several times over the years, including Torrington & Stannum. Bridge lonely no more. Visited the museum before I left. Rainy day all round, heaps of gravel roads. Thanks.
We are heading from Brisbane to Bright in Victoria, caching as we go, wherever it is safe to pull up with the caravan. We left Brisbane on 3rd Jan and dont have to be in Bright til the end of the month. Today's drive takes us from Deepwater to Guyra, via Emmaville. Just as we arrived in Emmaville, the geo app played up, so had to rely on gps only. Found easily, took pathtag. Thanks cricketmad
We are touring Australia and caching as we go!
Enjoyed finding this one. Thanks cricketmad, your hide is much appreciated!
Cheers from Canada!

Being able to park very close to GZ made this one such an easy find in a popular type of hiding place. The container was easily brought to light and our name was soon added to the list of finders. After replacing the cache we were then on our way to find a couple more caches around Emmaville. Thanks go to cricketmad for adding this cache for our enjoyment.
Well, this was the quickest ever cache find for us , just 2 steps to GZ. Giving it a favourite for just that. TFTH cricket mad.
Finally been able to get to Emmaville with my Geodog Scruffy to find these caches, which I noticed on the map a while back.
We really enjoyed finding these caches in and around this area.
All Good .. TFTC ..

Oh my the nearby dogs did not like us walking past their houses to this one, yep we parked on wrong side. A quick find was made, signed and then had to wait for what felt like peak hour traffic to pass before returning cache. TFTC
DiamonJs made an easy find of this one, but we signed the log, replaced cache and onto the next, time is limited. TFTC
Found at 12:48 PM GAFF1.
What a lovely quite little town where we can turn a 15 metre long rig right i nthe middle of the road and no one is hindered
Thanks cricketmad.

A surprising number of caches in this village but with little time and lots more to see today I decided just to find one and who could ignore a lonely bridge I parked at the wrong end so I had a slightly longer walk than was needed for a quick find! TFTC
We made a detour from our trip to Broken Hill to visit my son-in-law's mother at the post office. We took a short walk around town and found this on the way. TFTC.
A quick find in the location we thought it would be upon approach to the area. We had to wait for a couple of cars to pass before crossing the road.
Thanks for the hide cricketmad.

Found on journey away from the Mega. Today we are staying in Glenn Innes for a couple of days and have joined Shifter Brains for some caching and fossicking in the area.
It might be lonely but it is also very busy. I guess all the locals know about the cache it would be hard to keep it a secret.

Loving the tour of Emmaville. Thank you cricketmad for placing this cache
Terrific cache, thanks for bringing me to this great location. Love Emmaville and the shops and FTE hamburgers at the takeaway.
Nearly left without this one as my first drive past showed too many local muggles about. Decided to cruise past again and in the break in traffic, soon guessed where this one might be. 'Bridge' is a little bit of an exaggeration. Anyway TFTC cricketmad
Found by Sunshine Toledo and Her Majesty at 2:40pm. The cache was found quickly as we knew where to look. TFTC
