Went out today between showers of rain and hail to
find another cache for our 366 day challenge. This is
the one we chose to find. We did, signed the log and
replaced as found. It seems that a lot of people use
this area as a dumping ground for Agapanthas they
no longer want.
Thanks gregandjudi

With the wedding done and dusted that I was attending, it was now a new day with lots of caches to be found before heading for home.
I had now turned my sights on the caches around Echuca that I missed when I was here a couple of months ago.
I continued along the road that was that was too muddy to drive on last time I was here, it was then time for a very cautious walk to GZ where the cache was spotted quickly.
**Thanks to gregandjudi for placing this cache.**

Travelling to and from Echuca, I grabbed some caches. This was one of them. tftc.
Last one for us today on these cracker tracks. Nice hide. Cache in good condition. Tftc
Nice cache gregandjudy.

Found with geowife Malipara.

Found after attending the CITO in Echuca. A short walk from the track and I soon spotted the cache and signed the log. Thanks for the hide.
Found by Mary & David at 1125. After the CITO this morning, and so feeling virtuous, we again teamed up with Alansee to do this cache while we were more or less in the area. A pleasant area by the river that is so good for the soul of we city dwellers. Found the cache after a short search. Our thanks to gregandjudi.
Found with Maccamob today. After the CITO event we decided to go for this one. Thanks to a cache that I had looked for yesterday, I knew the back (read much shorter) way in to this one and once there we made an easy find. Well, Mrs M did! We took the short way out to where we were going next.
Thought it was time the whole family had a camping caching holiday.
Being a long weekend and with 3 caching events on in Echuca, we are staying at Wakiti Creek Resort. (managed by caching friends)
Out in Pat the 4x4 (huge Tb on back Window if you want to discover us) having some fun.
TOOK: nothing
LEFT: nothing
CACHE CONDITION: good

Only one car parked near the boat ramp today and no muggles in sight. A short walk and the good sized cache was found. SL at 10.44am Took: hat pin Left: stickers etc. #3357 TFTC gregandjudi
#1729 Lots of muggles had launched their boats today, fortunately the cache was located in a good position out of view - TFTC gregandjudi.
In Echuca for a couple of days, always time for a cache or two, another hot day.TFTC
A very quiet out of the way place. The old dead trees look kind of majestic . Tyftc.
Wow, what a long walk from where we parked the car, but we need the exercise. lol
A nice quick find and then the walk back, gotta love caching.
TFTC gregandjudi - we liked it.

Found it! Watch out for holes in the ground. Thank you for hiding. Boat ramp is a great spot if there was a bit more water.
whilst on a short holiday here decided to exchange a few green boxes for yellow smiley's great little spot here could bring the tinny up here and use the boat ramp TFTC
[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

Found as we cache our way back to Tasmania after attending the Qld Mega. Followed the gps arrow away from the boat ramp, which was in use and located cache quickly. TFTC.
Found on my way to spend the weekend with Honeysuckers. Two boat trailers were parked down in the parking bays, but there was no one in sight otherwise. My GPS was hovering back and forth and back and forth. In the end I decided to go with intuition, and intuition proved right. Cache signed, TNLN, my thanks to gregandjudi for the cache.
I must of missed the boat ramp here – travelled down a grassy track & a careful short walk to GZ TFTC / TFTH // SL
After a long drive along a dirt road running along the river, we found the cache.
The cache was in hand really quick and was signed.
We found the elusive boat ramp before moving on to the next .

Not sure where the boat ramp is. But boy was there a lot od water and puddles. Good find geo girl
I'm glad we came at this time of the year and not later as the scotch thistles are beginning to develop. TFTC
After the storm last night there were many limbs off trees and many mozzies. We made a quick dash for this one before we were carried away by them
Found today after we'd finished the TTT series. Amazing where the roads lead you.

Another good sized cache for our grandchildren to do some swapping, they both enjoyed the small walk to GZ. TFTC
Thankfully the muggles were on the river and without being caught we located the cache, logged our entry and took nothing. Thank you gregandjudi

We have returned from Canada to discover a few more Australian caches! What a great way to explore the "land down under."
Hmmmm... a hidden boat ramp. Strange when the sign says no river access. Nice spot.
Thanks for showing us gregandjudi!

For a road marked no river access there seem to be lots of people who know better and launch their boats here. Great spot. Pity about the no camping signs, it would be perfect TFTC gregandjudi

While on a 2 day quick break thought I'd grab what I could while out here. TFTC and smiley face
Interesting drive in. The sign said "No River Access" but the locals obviously know all about the ramp. TFTC.
Having a great weekend of bush camping and came for a drive to this cache, found quickly, TFTC!
We weaved our way along a muddy track to get close to GZ. After a short walk we soon had the cache in hand.
Thanks gregandjudi

Quick find, nice part of the forest here, green at the moment and lots of bird life... TFTC
The track into this cache was mostly dry today. We did have to navigate around some pretty serious ruts to get to gz though. After parking the geo-mobile we walked the last 200 meters or so, where the container was found well hidden and in good nick.
TFTC.

Another find on day 3 of the 31 day geocaching challenge. Headed to Echuca to visit friends and make a couple of finds for this challenge. Track in was quite wet and muddy in places but was easily navigable without engaging 4wd. Thanks gregandjudi for the cache.
A beautiful little hidden reserve, and a beaut hide, this spot was just made for a cache! Slowly getting to as many of Echucas caches as I can while I'm up here on work for another couple months. Tnln tftc!
Find number 4for Suscoe on a late afternoon run.

A nice easy find today on the way home from EchucaTook dolphin Left rubber. TFTC.
One cache find every couple of days means I can tick off a few more days on the calendar
Only a couple of hundred to go
This was a quick stop before heading to work and try and gather in some of the tourist dollars.
Thank you gregandjudi for this cache.

Wow that is an interesting road in! Nice little hide tftc T nothing L play dough
After a long eventful drive through the bush we discovered that this one could have been accessed from the road on the other side. Ooops!! took a playing card.
After completing the fantastic TTT series I had time to grab a few more caches in and around Echuca.
Strange the sign on the entry road says 'No river access' when I now know it does.
Thanks again gregandjudi for highlighting another area in your town

A nice quality boat ramp on a not so nice quality road! Geomobile navigated the ruts and we soon had the cache in hand TFTC
Out on a caching run with Blacklegend and a few of his caching kiddies in the Echuca area. We also met up with Trailrunning for a day of caching, who was up from Melbourne for a trip. Had a fantastic day out, with lots of caches, including, the TTT power trail, a few mystery caches and a general clean up of the Echuca area. Many thanks to all the cache owners for their cache placements. I had a great day.

Out and about on a caching run to Echuca with my local caching mate Poynts95 and two of my kiddies, 4yo Natasha and 1 1/2 yo Riley.... I was lucky enough to be able to meet up with one of my TDC (The Demolition Crew) caching buddies, Trailrunning, who was up on a trip to town for an extended weekend as well.
Our mission, was to collect a lot of the new caches that had popped up in the area. We had 65 on the list, and a total of 64 found for the day in about 6 hours of caching time, the only one missed was the TTT final, which we would have to solve and come back and collect after the clues were gathered.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nice bush setting here, and we were able to drive within about 60m of GZ, a short walk later, cache found and signed.

A unique opportunity presented itself this weekend, and I was able to travel north on Friday to meet up with my caching buddy Blacklegend prior to a weekend away in Echuca. We had 65 on the list for the day and scored 64 finds with one DNF. A great day out with lots of laughs and fun.
Found at 10:59:00 AM with Roostaman. Spending an extra day in town to pick up a few more caches before heading home.
Thanks gregandjudi
