I agree if it is suppose to be where the clue hinted then it is gone. Needs to be checked.
DNF at 10:30 AM.
We searched for some time in the rain and we then realised after looking at a photo of the cache container, that there was obviously no cache there - otherwise we would have seen such an obvious container.
Not sure if the previous finder of just 21 caches actually found the cache, or was the one who "let the cat of the bag"

A check by the CO is needed as there are now 3 cachers who couldn't find this "in plain sight" cache.
TFTC. A nice quick find last week on our way to Pilliga. Had morning tea in the cafe up the road. Was very nice. I’m visiting from the Hunter Valley.
Got it. I assumed it was on a certain item & didn’t even look at the gps. Too cocky for my own good. It’s in the bag tonight though. TFTC donut-2.0
Couldn’t find it. I’m here for a few days so will come back later in the week & have another look.
I travelled to northern NSW for some bushwalking at Mt Kaputar and took the opportunity to search out a couple of geocaches on my meandering route there. This cache was a straightforward find, hidden in an obvious position on the coordinates. Thank you Donut-2.0 for installing and maintaining this cache.
thanks for putting out these caches just migrating through for the one day we are heading to Narrabri than Coonamble than Gilgandra than Home,thanks for bring us up here and coords spot on thanks again

Day 3 of a 7 day trip from Canberra to Bourke, to Narrabri, to Armidale and back to Canberra. The main goal (apart from having a break from working from home) is to collect counties, and see some of NSW I haven't been to before. Cache easily found. TFTC.

We are spending the night in Wee Waa because we’re doing a road trip from Sydney, heading West with the sole intention of visiting places we’ve never seen before. That’s a lot of places! Luckily for us, Wee Waa happened to be nearby as it was getting dark so we decided to stay. Having my priorities in order, I found the cache before finding somewhere to stay Gorgeous town from what I’ve seen so far and am looking forward to seeing more of it tomorrow. Thanks for the welcome cache!
Avoiding Covid places and needing a time out from work so hitched a ride with Nibletricecakes and GLISS! armed with hand sanitiser and face masks, we went touring NSW collecting counties.
We started in Canberra and spent a weekend in Bathurst with the capital crunchers then continued on North and West before heading home again. TFTC!

Yay!! Took some acrobatics but we soon had the cache in hand. Such a lovely little town, time for GLISS! K8TYBEE and I to enjoy the bakery before we get back on the trail. TFTC
To unlock this county, we targetted this one - mainly because of the name of the cache. TFTC
I could not have been any more obvious or made more noise getting this one down. Tftc.
Discovering surrounding areas from Narrabri. This one was easy and quick find, thanks for it!
Caching in and around Wee Waa and surrounds we picked up a few caches and this was one of them.
Cache and contents were in good condition.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

TFTC,
Leaving Narrabri this morning, today was all about finding a cache in the last NSW Council Area we needed. This was achieved by a visit (Brewarrina) and covering some Km's. We managed to get to Bourke where we now turn North on our way to QOGM 2019.
Made sure I smiled.

Read the hint and thought what does that mean! On arrival at GZ, quickly new what it meant. Signed log and replaced. Thanks to Donut-2.0
Hi there Donut-2.0. Today was a driving day between Moree and Burrent Junction (via Narrabri) - so a pretty easy day. This cache was a quick find and the container and the log are dry and in good condition. SL. Thanks to Donut-2.0 for this cache - our find #6654.
Found by Mary and David at 1340. An impressive street structure, and a different kind of War Memorial. Quite amazing that the clock numbers are replaced by those iconic words. All snug and dry, but we couldn't figure out why it is called "Isaac". Our thanks to Donut-2.0.
Found by pnutbeagle and The Marathon Man on our 3-month Australia holiday after travelling from snowy Northern Ontario Canada
Easy find

Pilliga - Tamworth.
We stopped where it was suitable with the caravan on to find caches. Had to read the hint to help find the cache.
It was good to find such a variety of caches & hides along the way.
Thanks for placing this cache Donut-2.0

We have commenced our road trip heading south to attend the Alexandra Mega Event in Victoria, but decided to take our time and find a few caches along the way.
We had no difficulty in locating the cache and with our name added to the logbook, we continued on our way
Thank you Donut-2.0 for having placed the cache and maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

{EDIT}
Re-logging. Going through my statistics for Challenge caches to complete. Noticed my stats for 8 Nov 2017 were not right - some caches not logged on correct date - causing my Most Counties in a Day and Distance Travelled in a Day to be incorrect. Plus some are in the wrong order of my travels. I need to fix it for my personal and stats accuracy.
Changed original log to a Write Note and will delete soon.

Found 8 November 2017 at 9:10 am. Heading to Bundaberg as my sister in law is terminal and once done we are heading to my other sister in law in Brisbane for a while, so we are collecting caches on the way, any that sound interesting pretty much or one in each town we go through. Picked up this cache on our way through. Last night we were at Barren Junction and I managed to flatten the car battery ... aaahhhh , not good, but luckily we managed to get a jump start. Like Wee Waa, you can leave the car unlocked and literally sit in the middle of the main street for some time with no worries of cars hitting you, not like my hometown. Thanks for the cache hide. Log book full.

While staying in Narrabri for a few days we decided to have a drive around the region and hopefully find a few caches on the way
This was our first find for the day. Very easy to spot but it took us a while to retrieve and replace it due to a few muggles arriving for the next church service
After signing the log we enjoyed checking out the old clock tower. Wee Waa is a very proud and tidy town[^]
Many thanks for showing us this nice area Donut-2.0[^]

Impressive clock tower and more impressive clock. A tribute to its designer and more importantly a tribute to our fallen heroes. Lest we forget. Thank you CO for bringing me here.
We stayed overnight and have been for an early morning walk, great clock, easy find.
Aw got it - church was just about to come out so glad we found it before they all filed out. Lovely clock - never seen one like this - I wonder who had the idea ? Greetings from Scotland & TFTC
It was E to W when we arrived to look for the cache . . . or as the rest of eastern Australia, 5 to 2.00pm. What clever and innovative clock numbering! Must have been far too impressed with the clock and walked straight past the cache. That hide is so unbelievably brazen it's awesome! TFTC Donut-2.0.
After quickly spotting this one we decided that the Wee Waa-ites must be blind!!!
The clock struck while we were sitting here logging this one. Love the way they have used the Lest We Forget instead of numbers on the clock.
Thanks.

Staying in Narrabri so spending the day driving around the area. Nice easy find on a beautiful day. TFTC
Staying at Narrabri, we started our day by going out to Sawn Rock.... a must see.... then we came to Wee Waa and found this cache.
Make sure to check out the face of the clock.. very well done.
We sat and had some coffee and Anzac biscuits. .. great town.
TFTC ?
