Yarraman's Wild Horse Yarraman, Queensland, Australia

Lost or stolen

Two attempts at this cache. No find. The owner should look at this again there are a lot of dnfs

Stopped off here on our way to Nanango from the Sunny Coast. After a through search and a colonoscopy, we came up empty handed - bugger.

Nope, No good here. As the gate was locked, we felt it inappropriate to jump the fence, which is where everything seemed to be wanting to take us.

Perhaps next time.

Cheers

Found by The Noodler. TFTC

In the area for a week of rest & relaxation as well as caching.

Nice easy find.

Had driven past this so many time just never stopped & grabbed this one.

We decided to have a Sunday drive seeking caches, so we mapped out a bit of a trail that would take us from Kingaroy through to Brooklands, Maidenwell, and Yarraman before heading back up the highway to Kingaroy. This was number 12 (and the last one) on our list. We had found the old one that was located here a few years ago, but decided to check out the new one. For once, I got the jump on Princess Madelyn and made the find without any assistance from her eagle eyes. I don't think she was too keen to be groping around a horses butt, even if it was just a sculpture, and since I already had smelly hands from the "Turnoff" cache up the road, it was up to me to do the groping and thankfully I came up with the goods. Thanks PalsLove for adding to our most enjoyable Sunday Drive. Cheers from Bindair Dundat and Princess Madelyn.

Awesome

What a cool statue. Geokid found it quickly. No space to sign but glad we stopped to check this art work out

Replaced log sheet.

Great sculpture, noticed the made in Germany clutch plate, found the cache, needs a new roll. Tftc

Very tricky but found it

Great one, thank goodness for lcoll112 I had the biggest boy look - straight past it!

Log is totally full, I just squeezed my log into a tiny space.

another day of our touring through QLD. Thanks to all the CO's for the caches that break the monotony of travelling, and adding to our list of smileys.

**# 14119** Found on our 2016 winter escape trek.
A fine warm sunny winters day for a drive to Yarraman.
A good hide and not a quick find after a good search.
Thanks for the cache PalsLove,

On a whirlwind work trip from Auckland to Brisbane, up to Kingaroy and back again, so managed to grab a few select caches on the way - decided that I needed a smiley in Yarraman so stoped here for a quick find. This was an intelligence test to get in the gate at first , but once that was sorted the rest was easy. Log paper full. TFTC!

Took a little bit but found it

Having come to Crows Nest for the Rural Challenge Event and staying overnight, we planned on caching today from Crows Nest to Yarraman and then as time allowed a few on the way home to Brisbane. Today was in the company of Nadine1989.

After a lunch break having completed the nearby Multi cache, we began hunting down a few caches around the town. This was the first - an easy find alongside a fascinating sculpture. He looks kinda angry!

Found at 2.25pm on 29th May 2016. TFTC.

RoddyC and me started on this morning very early to find some caches on our way. Most of them there traditional ones and not very complicated. The two special ones, one multi and one mystery were great! I enjoyed the tour, the landscape and the caches.

I love horses so RoddyC thought that I only wanted to tell him that there is a horse. Took him a second to realise that I talked about the cache.

Found on our way to bunya mountains. TFTC

Having a mother/daughter holiday. On our way to Nanango. TFTC

Ok didn't get the hint as it really put us in a different spot looking but then while admiring the horse I made and easy find. TFTC

Quick find by my Geokid. TFTC.

Our 2nd day at Nanango. Today we headed to Yarraman as so many new caches since we were here last. We found lots of interesting locations & caches.
What a great piece of art work, cache was well placed.
Have given it a favourite point.
Thanks for placing this cache PalsLove

Great sculpture! Couldn't sign log as there is no room left.

Decided to go for a drive today with the GeoWife and clean up a few green icons along the way. Plenty of fun finds and great caches. Thank you for placing the caches to be found. Tftc

Found a few caches while on the way to visit my parents for the Easter weekend. Such a well crafted horse. A quick find. Thanks for the cache PalsLove!

nice made steel of horse cool TFTC

Nice little spot to stop and check out the cool sculpture

Found cache quickly

Thanks PalsLove

Down from Toowoomba with my usual non-geocaching geo-friend...she loves coming with me but has no desire to sign up and log her finds??!! We did a circuit down the range, through Esk, up to Yarraman and back to Toowoomba. Arrived as the light was failing...took a little time but very relieved to make the find. Cool sculpture...thanks for bringing us here.

Love that sculpture and love hide spot! TFTC

I had reason to drop a child off at Mt Binga two had a day to kill. Geocaching!

What an interesting sculpture! Took me a while to find this one though... Till I realised I had to take the hint a with an "-ish" on the end. But fond eventually, and all is good.

TFTC PalsLove. #466

Found at 1058. Found while on a geocaching expedition in my favourite region for a couple of day. Nice display. TFTC.

We admired the workmanship and the time that would have gone into creating this. Thanks for the info and the cache. On our way back home to Stanthorpe.

Haha. Good one! Favourite point from us! TFTC

The horse is looking fine in it's Christmas colours. We have done a cache on this steed many years ago, another nano. two for the price of one we say, LOL. SL TFTC

Out and about again today seeing more of this lovely countryside. We enjoyed finding this cache. Thanks to PalsLove for its placement and adding to our enjoyment of this location.

What an interesting sculpture. And definitely looks like a WILD horse. A perfect location for a cache to show us this sculpture. I was a bit worried at first as I'd approached from the opposite corner to the gate and didn't see it at first. But, yes, there is a gate in so that you can go in a pat the horses nose if you should want to. You never know, it could calm it down a bit, lol. Cheers PalsLove! [^][^]

Day 3 of a 3-day getaway with Dutchie1950 and our main objective was to attend youngoldfella's Event yesterday. It's been a fun couple of days, but it's time to return to real life...

On our way to Nanango on Friday we decided to NOT stop at Yarraman, with the intent of collecting all those caches on our way home. A good decision, as there was plenty to keep us amused today

What a great statue! A quick find thanks to the quaint hint TFTC, PalsLove.

# 1208 - After Nanango's First Event IolantheK and I make our way back home, slowly. No reason to hurry if there are so many caches waiting...

Today we want to pick up a few smileys around Yarraman. On the way to Nanango I saw this cache and regretted not having taken a picture of it. Well, I wasn't to know, was I?

It was a quick find, and I don't think it warrants a 3 1/2 star difficulty...

TFTC PalsLove

Found this with Teambenders on way home from Nanango's First Event. I thought the horse looked a bit scary as wild horses do tend to have a murderous streak. xxx

Found with Tassiegirl13 while on our way to Nanango for the event this weekend.
What a cool sculpture and an interesting little story.
TFTC

Had an enjoyable weekend including attending Nanango's first Ever Event and searching for lots of caches. Saw wonderful scenery as well as wildlife on our travels through the back roads of the South Burnett. Thank you to all the COs who place the caches in these fascinating spots.

Out before the event with grannysmith1947. TFTC.

Have a quick stop here on the way to the Event in Nanango today.

Thanks to the hint made for a nice quick grab. But I still took the time to give the wild horse a hoof shake.

An early start from Brisbane on our way to Nanango for The Event.. No horsing around when it cam to locating this cache. Found. TFTC

Stopped off checked out this artwork.
I read the hint so it was an easy find .
Signed logsheet 3/12/2015 4:05 pm and replaced all as found.

PalsLove - TFTC.
And a fav point too ! For the caches location and after reading the hint the first place I stuck my hand in full view outside a police station. .

cache find #4252 Ample parking for our geotug and geocaravan, so we stopped by to locate this cache. Whilst MrGt54 was signing the log, MrsGT54 was busy taking photos. Quick find. Love the sculpture. TFTC.

Smilie #3259

Out & about collecting a few smilies around Yarraman with a few extra before & afters.
Parked the Geo-beast right near GZ which is pretty obvious (of c-horse!).
Hmmm?
A fence surrounds where I need to be?
Is it permissible to enter?
Well there IS a gate!
Ducked in & after a quick grope in an inappropriate place (glad it wasn't a real horse) the cache was in hand.
Signed & replaced as found.

Great view of the Main Street. TYFTC.

TFTC 1576# out and about with purple-ninja-00

We headed out for a days caching in this area, there are a lot more new caches since our last trip, We had a great day finding many different types. I thought this one was going to take a while, geohubby soon had his hands on it. What a great bit of art.

On a trip to Nanango via the Brisbane River Valley, Western Branch to place some caches for the Nanango Event in 6 weeks, just couldn't pass these without a look see.
An easy find @ 1120 after placing a couple of caches along the way.
GPS wanted to put me in the garden, clue helped [^]
All with the cache

Found it TFTC!!

Eeny weeny cache but a great big lot of fun. Thank you

Out on caching day with Brother Colin. Tftc

Today, triciac2, and I are heading to Nanango.
With plenty of time we included a few caches along the way.
Another quick find here.
Why are caches always hidden under the tail?
Thanks for the cache.

Gotcha!!! TFTC

Very nano thanks

Awesome hide. Smallest one yet.

Found Ok

I wondered why the horse was smiling so much.
Now I know why.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks PalsLove All good with this cache

Finally able to leave Nanango on my days off and attempt the new ones down Yarraman way. Parked in the designated spot and walked to the gate at the back of the enclosure. There was a micro on this one sometime ago and this one is roughly in the same location. Quick find. I had to use a log extraction tool for this one. Signed log YOF as that is what I use on small and micro logs to save space n the paper. TFTC PalsLove

FTF - this one got the geokids in a fit of giggles once they spotted where it was located. There was then a bit of a debate about who was going to retrieve it.
