Nice quick find on the way back from a trip.

Not the most tranquil spot for a cache, but pretty cool spot regardless

I've always meant to stop and grab this and so far had only managed to go early and head into Tallarook by mistake (and find several caches there while I was at it), today was the day. All good and thankfully also good sightlines back down the road so you can rejoin traffic without annoying anybody (we hope)

Easy peasy lemon squeezy

My GPS was about 5m out but we got there in the end. Log signed and all safe and sound. Now to merge back onto the highway safely!! TFTC

Found

find #4

It seems pretty clean around this geocache now, so thats a good thing! Finding it was a nice short stop, with a nice little trot there and back to sign the log!

Almost missed the stop. TFTC.

Found the cache quickly but as I opened it *POW ARHHHHHH* a dirty big black cockroach jumped out at me and scared the living S@$t out of me. I composed myself, signed the log and returned it along with the contents of the cache that were now on the ground, back safely where I found them.TFTC

Found at 9.30am. An easy find on a busy highway. TNLN Thanks K&M

Found it

A little less obvious from the Tallarook side of the fence but found quickly: David

Find 4515 on December 31, 2023Found on our holiday that took us from Ballarat to Sale. Then over the mountains to Dinner Plain and then Myrrhee for a couple more nights. Today we make for home as our holiday comes to close. However there are more caches to find on the way. Nice quick park and grab. TFTC Robmc

Found with dad on our holiday tftc

A nice quick park and grab to break up the driving, on our way home after a couple of nights away camping on the Murray!

Last stop on the way back to Melbourne, right before sunset.

Quick stop on the way home from Nagambie. Great re-start to the caching adventures that have been on hold for quite some time.
It was also the first cache find for the French Bear

Heading home from Albury after a caching in Canberra with friends. This was my last find for the day, and I think I have exhausted all the southbound caches in the stopovers. They seem to rollover fairly regularly, so perhaps next time I come this way, there'll be more for me to find.



Thanks to Robmc for the cache. These layover caches are really valuable to break up the journey.

Nice easy grab on the wsy home. TFTC.

Always drive past not this time though

Awesome treasures in this one! Took nothing left nothing, great treats for the next guy

Been passed this little sucker so many times oh there, it is past it next time. Oh there it is past it next time this time we made sure am out and about for the long weekend. Not really doing a lot but we thought we come out and get a few cache ️for the next challenge.

Nice quick stop. Clean and dry

TFTC. Cache and contents are in excellent condition. On the way to Melbourne from Canberra with Dumpsss. One territory and two states so far today. Can I get one in Tassie to night to make it 4…..

Found by the Nicholas Family on the way home from Netball

The OSHFAM clan including geo dog Roxy came up to Punkah for a few days to spend time in our shack before school starts next week. On Saturday lunchtime, I sent the family home and Roxy and I stayed on for an extra night on our own enjoying caching adventures. Today it was time to head home again, so after packing up, Roxy and I hit the road around lunchtime and didn't get home til 8pm caching our way all the way home.

I always stick to the main road when driving back home but today without whinging kids and hubby, I decided to venture out onto the backroads to grab a few caches and stop at all the unfound southbound caches along the highway.

Well the time to CITO description is accurate here unfortunately. Getting to the cache involved sliding on my bum straight into big webs filled with 8 legged creatures. To say loud screaming ensued and frantic flapping of arms and hands across my head and body to clear the webs and creatures would be fairly accurate here. I grabbed the cache as quick as I could and scrambled back up on my hands and knees as I am old now and the body doesn't seem to function as well as my younger days.

If only the visitor who decided to dump their visitor vest wasn't such a lazy slob here. Ugh.

Thank you for the cache here Robmc

Tftc, second cache found with lilbassgirl on detour home from dinner.

Reasonably easy had a scratch going downhill

#4774 My amazing girlfriend (aka Mrs BGF) wasn't with me today, so I had to wrestle the snakes myself. After achieving that, the log was signed and my journey southbound continued thereafter. TFTC Robmc.

I was scared of the snakes. But the amazing girlfriend pushed through and found it! Gosh darn it I love her

Nice easy Stop and Go.. TFTC

Oh here, look! What’s this?

Ah rats, no luck here. Was a bit scared of the tall grass today. Hot and the snakes are waking up, I can feel it. Be cautious future searchers. Will be back with my team

I bumped into the M31 here at Tallarook,
and detoured into towne,
down a back street,
and parked the geomobile on a quiet corner

Then it was a short stroll through the woodlands at the side of the freeway,
to reach GZ.
A quick cache find here

Which way were we travelling with olpook4geo when we found this cache? Well .... south, of course. There was no problem in locating this cache and we only had to make a brief stop here to earn a smiley. Thanks go to Robmc for placing and maintaining this cache.

Enjoyed finding this cache along with goingplaces2. Located the container, signed the log and returned it to position. Job done! TFTC.

Remember kiddies. Don't drink the bottles of yellow coke you find around here.. Old Trucker legend has it, that it's been well over brewed and not good for human consumption.

Cache is in good order as always. Thanks for another cache!

Last one before heading home from WW.

Easy park & grab. TFTC

Nice one thank you

Heading home from Yarrawonga after picking Velocachu up after spending the week at Tocumwal for School Hols, it was decided a few catches on the way was in order, that few turned into 13 on a glorious day.

Quick stop for the last of the day, TFTC

On a trip back from Pucka for the week, I stopped by to add my name to this one as well! TFTC, TNLNSL, CIGC

#3564 A quick park n grab while travelling from Shepperton to Geelong as part of our show. Signed cache and replaced as found. Had time to launch the drone and capture someTallarook from above. TFTC.

Think just about every truck stop could do with a CITO, why are we so careless? TFTC

Found with 63Roos. Thanks

Enjoy day today with ALL7...
TFTC

Found it

Nearly over ran this one today. Luckily Feathertop has good brakes. A slow sprint back to locate the cache and sign in.
No more stops now. We were homeward bound.
TFTC Robmc

Great hide, little tricky to stop in time when you’re traveling at 110kms. You weren’t wrong about this area needing a clean up, it was littered with adult movies and lots of dead birds for some reason, very strange.
TFTC

Stopped in on a maintenance run.
All ready to be found.

14:20, 1 December 2018. #1458.

On the way home towards Melbourne from the general vicinity of Rushworth after helping a friend move some of his toys from a rented shed near Nagambie to his new property. The last time I did this trip I overshot and missed the cache, so no turning back. Today I made sure I didn't miss the stop.

The jump off the freeway felt a little quick, but plenty of visibility and not much traffic, so getting back on was a doddle.

The cache is in good condition.

Mm google maps took us the long way round to this one. Ahh well guess it was a good excuse to stretch the legs. And have a look at the adorable little town. Really need to stop trusting those maps! Sigh. Found with lovetherabbitohs and sneaksquirral3326 Tftc
