06-May-22
Out for our weekly Friday exploration and found ourselves out this way -- plenty of small groups making use of the picnic area, but we headed up top, seemingly the only ones interested in the dam itself. We wandered uninterrupted across the dam wall, taking in the serenity, before winding our way down to GZ, where the oicnicing muggles paid us no notice and the cache was quickly located. Thanks for the hide here jlotsos

Decided to head this way today to find a few caches. Didn't realise it was going to be quite so warm I think my car said it was 37 degrees outside.....Not sure why ive never grabbed this cache before but the green dot on the map is now a smiley TFTC jlotsos
 
12-Mar-19
A day out with Barnzy12 was organised at last minute as I was getting my car serviced and didn’t really want to Uber it home and waste a day without a car!

So I became the passenger, he did both the driving and the navigating! It soon became apparent that he forgot he was driving and that we were not in the usual Geo Car as the first 3 attempts for trails ended with a “slight bump in the road”

Anyway I was expecting a CBD type morning with thongs on etc, little to my knowledge were we doing bush walks or hill climbs! Fell / slipped numerous times and had very dirty feet by the end of it.

I did also have some unexpected finds with very little solving just in the company of the master trader!

A good day out TFTH
 
12-Mar-19
Always enjoy a Jlotsos cache. Gotta organise a caching day with you soon mate and hopefully get you back placing caches again.

Headed out today with Cravo10 to pickup a few “odds and sods” caches that have been on the radar for a fair while around the Karragullen area.

Started off on a bad foot with my car not quite able to get us where we needed to go and crossing a few off the list but once we got into it, a good day out, of not a little hot after doing a few steep walking tracks.

Some really nice scenery around these parts, with logs of vineyards, orchards and large rural property.

Managed to pickup a few caches around Araluen, the master puzzler Perth cache after many phone calls, texts and emails to people that understand those blue dots!!

Finished off with a few relatively quick park and grabs.

Good day out. Thanks to the local COs for their caches.
 
24-Nov-18

Out caching for a Multi today but we thought we would pay this one a visit too. Thanks to the hint & previous logs we made a quick find. I had never been here. A pretty spot even in drizzly weather. Dropped a TB. TFTC
 
04-Aug-17
Stopped by the dam after collecting a fantastic multi nearby, deserted today and feeling very forgotten, this is a wonderful spot and is a fantastic picnic area with great facilities. Found with the help of some previous logs. This one defintely rocked! TFTC jlotsos

**Found this while House Sitting in Bedfordale** Cool

*Out and about letting my GPS be my guide*...

A overcast day but no rain at the moment. Parked nearby and strolled to GZ. Managed to grab 15 Smile today with 2 DNF's Sad so a great day out.

I had the lovely park to myself today. I also had the co-ords out by about 15 metres but the clue made it an easy find. A great container in a lovely area. Would love to see the spillway running.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment jlotsos. Appreciate your effort. Big Grin
Greetings from Victoria.

26-Jan-17
Was doing a tour of Roleystone (old stomping grounds!) getting some geocaches, decided to come down this way since I hadn't been here in quite a few years. It did take a little while to find the cache as for some reason the GPS (phone) had me looking about 20m away. Once I'd exhausted all the other places you could hide a cache, I looked over at this rather obvious object and decided to take a look around it, and there it was. Nice container! Thanks for bringing me back to this dam/park! It brought back some memories that's for sure. TFTC
 
02-Jan-17
Tftc! My first for 2017.
 
02-Oct-16

02-Oct-16
Not the forgotten park today. Plenty of muggles out enjoying the welcome break in the weather. Although we had no problem locating the container, co-ords appear to be out 17 mts. Thanks jlotsos
