This location has been bulldozed and a new bridge and road is being built where this cache was.
Third in this series today I've come across that may need to be put to bed, at least for a while. The area is currently closed for a considerable amount of land maintenance of some sort, and the co-ords appear to be smack in the middle! Heading home. Hope the series is up and running again soon - have enjoyed the ride today. Thanks.
Happened to be in the area with a few people for another cache and thought to squeeze in an easy one. Mmmm, no need to leave the path, but... my GPS keeps insisting that I go a number of metres off the path... No luck as it was wet (and one of the group had a nasty fall), it was my last cache on a long (CITO event) day, and I didn't want to hang around too long. Will come back some other day.
There has been plenty of DNF's in a row, even from very experienced cachers. Perhaps it's time for the CO to confirm if this still is there or has gone walkabout.
Today's caching adventure is a long mini milestone hike at Binna Burra. I am still 15 caches short of the prescribed number, so after an early start, I planned to grab 8 or so around here before heading south.
Lots of hiding places here. Add my name to the growing list of DNF's.
Thanks for the cache, awesome99.

Attempted this one twice (there and on the way back) Co-ords have us near the road. Would appreciate updated co-ords. But spend a good 20 minutes looking, turning up zilch. Maybe next time.
Out jogging this morning, but couldn't see anything obvious at my GZ - I shall return.
great hide. keep your eyes peeled for something out of place? definately near the path and NOT near the road. TFTC.
This is the second time I have looked for this and failed. I have just checked the logs and realised I used the wrong coordinates. Hopefully next time.
For some reason I kept expecting it to be magnetic.
So after looking at co-ords I would return to metallic objects.
I will have to ask TimeForBed for help

Out for a bike ride to check out my caches. This one has probably been muggled. Should be able to get the new container before the week ends.
Yeah no success with this. Subsequent logs have explained why. Maybe one day I will get back. Glad to see it is now sorted out. (posted 29/6)
Out with some friends and decided to do some caches we searched but couldn't find this one had a friend nearby that had done it before and said it wasn't where is was when he had done it
After the disappointment of the last I was glad to get a find here. A nice little spot beside the river despite the noise overhead. TFTC
The day this one was first published I arrived a little to late to make a find on it. It had been washed away So today I was happy to return and finally make it a smiley!

After a late night of dining and wining with friends, I decided to ride the MTB the length of this trail to complete the series. The round trip was in the realm of 15-16 kliks.
This was my first find on the way out and I was wondering about the wisdom of my long ride as it was warm out. The coords are around 7-8 metres out which led me to make a brief excursion up a concrete waterway
Read the hint and then it was an easy find! Hope I put it back a bit better hidden! Magnet could do with some glue
TFTC and the series, awesome99

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga2 at 9:15am. This cache took a couple of looks for us as there was nothing at our GZ. The cache is in good condition. TFTC
There was a massive spider near the cache! A good hide. Cache is in good condition! Thanks for the cache awesome99!
I parked where i parked a few years ago when there was a cache at the memorial. A short walk to find the cache but my GPSr was trying to indicate that the cache was about 7m away.

Eventually found this one a little away from where I expected based on the coordinates. Even on multiple approach's it kept coming up that where the cache is would be 10m from GZ.
Also the magnet is really not very strong and surprised that it survived the flood water.

Went for an afternoon walk before sunset with Geowife with the aim of finding this new series. Have been along this pathway many times. We couldn't find this one at first check, so left it for the return trip. In the fading light picked it up straight away. TFTC
Back again today to get the couple which have been reactivated.
I parked up in the picnic area and strolled down.
There is a lot of debris still lying around from the flash flood.
I read the previous CO log and when I arrived I wondered how it could have been raised much where the GPS was indicating. No where there to put a cache so I had to widen the search a bit and found the cache. The attachment method is not too secure but with care it may hold for a while.

Joint FTF. Rooster dropped me off beside the main road and I slid down the embankment to nab this little bad boy. Who was to know it would only be in action for a couple of hours!!!!? I'll keep this experience in mind when putting caches near water TFTC
I am impressed that, according to the logs, this cache was flooded less than 2 hours after being hidden. Hopefully the next time the cache owner will stop and think before hitting the 'submit' button. Nyssaflutterby and I walked to this one down the path/puddle towards this one, quite a nice walk but right at the end, the water was some metres above normal level and as a result, cache long gone in the murky swirling waters. Hopefully this one is improved so that next time we get rain it is less helpless. TFTC awesome99
Joint *FTF* at 12:40pm, (sorry forgot your name!!!)
It was raining but not too bad and we had already picked up number 1 so we kept going. Saw this series come up as we were heading back to the northside. Can't believe how quickly the water came up!!

A quick ride up the path from number 1 and this one was soon spotted. I also notice the water rising from the creek which was over the bike path here. I decided to head on through, perhaps a canoe would of been easier today.
Note: 25 mins later on the return journey with Culture 50 the water had risen 2 feet and the cache was now in need of a snorkel.

After a rainy Saturday arvo snooze, I thought I'd go for a walk in the rain, just in case the FTF on these caches hadn't been logged.
Arriving here in the pouring rain, I didn't even bother trying to get near GZ.....

Thought we would be the only silly people out hunting , but no, many of us. Unfortunate that all caches now need maintenance.

I laughed so hard when I saw the pictures to the series. I only placed these at 9am this morning.
