A quick find here, cache is all goodHeaded over to the Capital GeoBash in Canberra, ACT with Freddo over 5 days, travelling through the central part of NSW before caching around the hinterlands. A nice few days over with great weather.Thanks for the cache

That was easy.The trip bit.Easter geocaching festival of twenty twenty four. This time it is the turn of Oz Mega GeoBash MEGA event in the nation's capital. It is time for a road trip across country to Canberra in the Sporty Pajero Sports. Freddo and Gridge98 traveling from Adelaide via a strange inland route that takes in scenic rural locations, dusty roads, punctured tyres, overheating batteries, various tools of the trade, special campgrounds, and lots scope for many many geocaching finds. Along the way we saw running emus, jumping kangaroos, wandering deer, dead foxes, herds of wooly sheep and stray steers.Arriving in Canberra we met our colleagues e.gregory1, featherwaite, team walron, courtney rose, davidwazza, e_smilie, and georode, signing as ABP, plus a huge group of other like minded excited mega geocachers attending event after event, and more events.Day one. Adelaide to Broken HillDay two. Broken Hill to WellingtonDay three. Wellington to CowraDay four. Cowra to BathurstDay five. Bathurst to CanberraDay six. Canberra to CanberraDay seven. Canberra to QueenbeeyanDay eight. Canberra to AdelaideThe generic bit.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

A loose plan was hatched for a 3-week road trip with RoamingHowie to explore locations in Country NSW wed not been to before and of course, find a cache here and there.DAY FOUR: Cowra & Bathurst.I spotted the cache as we pulled up.Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, swift13 ~~

Hard ride up on an extremely wet day. Cycling Sydney to Eurobin. To Young today via Greenthorpe. Thanks for easy cache as it's our only regular cache on route today.

Day 127 of our greynomad trip up north from Vic which started in June, and day 126 of a streak.With QOGM done and dusted for it's final year we are heading the caravan towards home, well sort off. Goal is to tick off LGA's and missing sectors in 360 degrees from home. Eventually found cache at the base of a tree that remained standing while its neighbour has fallen recently (maybe in this weeks storm). Moved to a safer place.TFTC TB's visited

Nothing today but the view.

Find it and sign the log as EV, and thanks for the cache and hunt.

Nice quick stop beautiful views

Found it, tftc

A weekend in Cowra, and we ended up checking out Grenfell today. On the way home we spotted this cache, so we thought, why not stop and pick it up. DustyEartha and Lacelot were with us for the drive.
Thank you

Nice stop. TftC.

Trying to get a cache in Weddin Shire but missed by 50m while travelling from the Blue Mountains to Wagga.

Sydney to Adelaide Roadtrip
Day Three : Cowra to Balranad.

An interesting day weather wise, with rain in Cowra, and very heavy rain around West Wyalong to the point I was worried that the highway may close. Balranald didn’t get any rain at all.

I love a good view cache. Looks like I haven’t reached Weddin yet though. Thanks for getting me to stop here swift13.

Found while in Cowrra for a one day stop. Found after a short search. TFTC.

Headed to the Bathurst 1000 grabbing some caches along the way TFTC

Great spot. Left a jewel. Be back in a month or so again hopefully.

Lovely views on this sunny morning as we head back south. Cache in good condition.
Thanks swift13 for the placement.

TFTC

Lucky we didn’t need to search to hard as it is not much fun on a cold and soggy day, but we located this one without too much trouble.

Today we left Grenfell on a very cold and windy day and moved to Cowra. We managed one cache on the way and then set up for a couple of days. After thawing out a bit we headed out to look around, our first stop being the Visitors Centre. We really enjoyed the hologram and displays on Cowra. We had both heard of the outbreak before and seen the tv show. The staff there were fabulous and quite interested to hear about a geocaching multi that took you to a number of the sites. We worked on that multi and found a couple of traditionals but in the end the cold beat us. We’ll try again tomorrow and hope it’s a bit warmer.

Another cache needing to be found on the way to Dubbo for my attempt at the “Well Travelled Cacher” challenge. A lovely view can be enjoyed here and I scored yet another pathtag. Too good.

Tftc swift13, came here to collect a smiley in this LGA. Left a trackable and a pathtag.
Quick find here

Found in week 5 of our 5 week outback adventure. Tftc

Once the app had settled, it was a quick and easy find. Tftc.

Accurate coordinates and a logical hide led to a quick find. the cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks swift13 for the cache.

Found it guys. Thanks

Quick find on my way to West Wyalong for a 70th. Just checked out the collection of war quilts in Cowra Art centre, just amazing.

Quick and easy find.
Thanks for sharing your view

With a possible FTF up for grabs over in Grenfell and a day off from work, I decided on going for the drive over while collecting a few other caches along the way. I started the day with collecting a Trig-Point behind the Grenfell quarry. Next one on the list was the possible FTF and then into the Weddin Mountains to find another TP and avenge a DNF. After my fantastic hike, I headed out and found the lone caches, I hadn’t found yet, between Grenfell and Young. TB visit on all found caches. I would like to thank all CO’s for creating the caches I found and for letting me enjoy the hunt to find them! TFTC’s

A nice quick find here today. TFTC

Found while staying in Cowra for a couple of days.

TFTC a quick find along our journey.

We were heading back from the QOGM zig bagging our way picking up caches along the way.

We agree with what the cache page says, it doesn't always have to be about the cache hide, it is what it brings you to see that you may not have even found if it wasn't for caches placed in these areas. We did enjoy the views here while we searched for the cache and added our name to the log and took a couple of happy snaps before leaving.

Thanks swift13 for the hide, it's caches like this that have kept us interested in the game all these years.

It's the weekend and the weather is fine, so Touchstone7 and I decided a trip outside Canberra was in order. And of course, we felt the need to grab a cache or three along the way.

A quick stop and grab as we neared our destination of Cowra. Cache is in good condition. Tftc

Found whilst doing a trip around NSW following the Murray and Darling Rivers, visiting the following places, Young, Mulwala, Barham, Wentworth, Mungo National Park, Copi Hollow, Wilcannia, Louth, Brewarrina, Warrumbungles and Tamworth, crossing over the border to visit some adjacent town on the way.

A great view to stop for as we headed out from Cowra towards Greenthorpe, where we took the opportunity to renew our memories of the exploits of Harry Potter.

Thanks 'swift13' for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.

Easy find, thanks

Grenfell - Cowra This was our first find on the way into town
We have now set up camp at the old showgrounds.
We headed back towards where we had come from to start The Harry Potter series, doing a large loop before heading bck into town. We found some very cleverly hidden caches in some great location.
The town was very hot today,
Thanks for placing this cache swift13

A two plus hour drive to Cowra with a few caches on the radar especially the harry potter mini series. Found plenty of caches, only a few dnfs and enjoyed many amazing views. Also enjoyed the landra castle. Wow just wow!

TFTC TNLN.

What wonderful farming vistas, joy to the eye. TFTC

I sought out some geocaches while on a road trip to the Weddin Mountains and found nine. This was a reasonably straightforward find, being within a few metres of the coordinates. Thank you swift13 for installing and maintaining this cache.

Quick find even though we got muggles by the farmer and his dogs! I think he thought I was throwing up not caching! Lol!

We were walking in the clouds when we found the cache.
Thanks

Black Bunny and I hit the road for a weekend caching, with the pack of geodogs.

Thanks, swift13!

Out for a run in the car with Just a cacher.
Thanks for the cache, swift13!

Views are awesome

Thanks for the cache - was great to stop and take in the beautiful view. TFTC

Quick and easy cache. Left a swap for te geokids.TFTC

TFTC. Our aim for the day was to do a large loop from Cowra to Bumbaldry and follow the Harry Potter Trail back to Bendick Murrell and back to Cowra . Thanks to,the COs for placing and maintaining the caches in the area .

A quick find just as the rain cleared and blue sky appeared. Was that it for the day? - absolutely not!

Great view indeed - we were heading to Cowra and yep wow that's an awesome view.

**# 16697** Found on the start of our 2017 winter escape trip.
A top day for a drive around while at Cowra for a short stopover.
And another nice autumn day with not many muggles around.
The main mission was the Harry Potter series and a few others as well.
Thanks for the cache swift13,

We found the caches we looked for all bar one, and it had to be in the trilal ow well, the CO might go an check or put it on hold.
Thanx all CO's for the day out, we have more to go back for beyond what we have done, look for to do them , so that's another day [8]

This was a bonus find heading home from the Harry Potter trail (reversed). Well concealed cache. TFTC.

Currently working in Young for 3 months. Had some time saturday afternoon for some cache hunting Manged to find all the Harry Potter powertrail caches plus a couple of extras. TFTC's!

On a mid-western run to Temora ...

Few places for a hide but poking around in the new growth long grass did not enthuse ... gave it a good look, then gave up. Nice view back from whence I came.

Nice quick find on the return journey of our victoria to brisbane 2 week road trip with the kids. Signed log and left a yellow fly toy. Dipped a few TB'S. TFTC

Found whilst heading on the way towards home after a few days working in the district. I had stopped briefly heading the other way earlier in the week but was too hard to locate in the dark. Many thanks swift13

Birds nest here can hear it .

Out for a day with the geokids. Gorgeous view

#4495 - 16:00; I had been for a drive to Grenfell with the geohoney and her muggle friend and we were now headed for home. Decided to grab another couple of caches on the way and pulled over right beside GZ and said "You'll often find a cache close to features like this". How prophetic that statement turned out to be as the GPSr put us within a couple of metres once I did a search. You've got to love that! TFTC swift13

10869. Found with AngelG27 and specimenX ("SAFi" in most of the logs) on a day run up Cowra way.

With the bad weather down the coast postponing a planned run that way, a quick rethink had us planning this run instead. A early start had the three of us hit the Highway before 7.30 and not too long after we started our caching spree. Awesome run, with quite a few of the "History of..." puzzles solved and (all but one) collected, as well as 5 First To Finds making a great caching day with my new invasion buddies.

This was the next find for the day, and the girls took no time in locating the cache. Cache retrieved, signed, returned, and it was off to the next one.

Thanks swift13 !! Lovely area for a cache.

TNLN - TFTC !!

Plans were set in place with fitzy_1965 and AngelG27 for an "invasion" of several country towns between Yass and Cowra. We managed to dodge the worst of the drizzly weather to collect a decent swag of caches on what was a fun day with great company! We signed with the acronym SAFi ("i" for invasion ).

Another quick grab for us on the geomission [^]

Thanks for the hide, swift13
