A surprise setup for a 1.5/1.5. I used to have a cache with this same style. TFTH
A quick pickup before the next event. A beautiful stroll through the sports ovals. TFTC team.wallace!
Barb2e and I scooted past here after the event, meeting search4 and others who had the same idea. TFTC *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*
Net voordat we weggaan van de camping willen we nog snel even een blokje lopen. Hoe leuk is het dan om in de buurt nog wat geacach te pakken.

We are only here in Yass for one night starting in the Caravan park, it always good to get out for a walk after driving all day so hunting for caches is a good way to do that, so TFTC
Found it with Everlasting, travelling to Sydney and thank you for leading us to your cache
Found the hint location (thanks - it was a great hint!) but no luck spotting the cache today. I suspect cache blindness to be the culprit
#6227.
A perfect day for some geocaching as there was almost no muggles around and we could search uninterrupted. We found a similar hide earlier today, which made this one a little easier to find. TFTC!

Thank you, team.wallace, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Took a while to figure the hint but eventually found it. Quick find after that. TFTC.
First one for the morning now it has stopped raining, found by feathertop.
Thanks team.wallace for the memories this cache invoked. I had far more happier time playing sport on our school oval than I ever did in the classroom. Well, except for Cookery, we had a fantastic teacher for thar subject.

Staying at the nearby caravan park for a few days with cyberganv.
I like the sentiments behind this cache.
An early pre school find.
Cheers

After QOGM 2022 Murweh we continue our trip in NSW. We stopped in Yass for a couple of days.

Pulled up close by and made a quick find. As a retired teacher it is good to hear how people remember teachers who made a real difference to them.
We moved a whole 60km today from Harden to Yass and are looking forward to the plethora of caches in the area. We were set up by lunchtime, so after a bit of shopping and a quick lunch we headed out into town to do some caching.
We found a variety of caches including trads and multis, as well as completing the Adventure Lab. It was tough going at times with some challenging hides and a few DNFs. Also some high Ts that were beyond us!
The weather was cold with a chilling wind to boot, but better than sitting in the van.
Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache team.wallace.

Last one for the day. Thanks to all the cache hiders in Yass. As always, this pursuit always takes me places I probably would never go without it.
#2006 Crossing over the causeway at the river then making my way up the path I found myself here. Had to be very stealthy as it was close to school start time. I didn't initially see the clue but when I did I knew what to do. Thanks team.wallace for placing and maintaining this cache.
Found with Crafty Dusty and the geopooch Pippa on our way home from Melbourne to Sydney. This took much long! Was actually in the second place I looked but things were replaced previously askew so it wasn’t as simple as it should have been. Nevertheless, we persisted! The gas hint assured us we were correct originally-so thank you! And I love the idea of this cache being named after a favourite teacher. Wonderful! Thanks!

Staying at Yass for a few days after being able to travel after lockdown. It was good to clear a DNF from a couple of years back. I have hands like a TOTT

Lileah., Asher and Trish of the Foster family heard from there Nanny who lives nearby that a geocache was located here.
Very sneaky. Still not sure what the hint means. But definitely an ah-hah moment when uncovering this one. TFTC!
Spent the morning caching around Yass, before heading towards Canberra.
Thanks to all the CO's for a entertaining day. All caches found quickly and in good condition.
Many thanks for placing this cache, team.wallace, for us and others to find.

A nice peaceful spot and the find was assisted by the nearby presence of a suitable TOTT. All in good condition and TFTC team.wallace.
Nice to collect three of your well-maintained caches and wish I had time to attempt a few more however, time was getting away from me, so I'll be back for the others.

Found on a caching expedition out to Yass with sebass19: from 9:30am to 7pm, 51 caches! Parked right near GZ (probably not legally but school's out I guess) and walked over for a quick find: though, I nearly broke my jaw trying to remove the camo. Cleverly placed cache; and at a lovely location. TFTC team.wallace!
An assorted selection of urban and out of town caches was on the program to be found, along with ilook4geo. It was a fun day and we enjoyed the caches found. Thanks go to team.wallace for placing this cache.
Another fun caching day with goingplaces2. Signed the log here replaced cache as found. TFTC.
Thankfully I didn't need a tool to find this one today, as the previous person obviously left it slightly easier to grab for me as I didn't have any trouble! Or maybe it was the rain that helped 
A good hide here, nice and safe and dry from the elements and muggles!
Thanks team.wallace, although it could use another log, the original one is full and torn, someone has put another page in out of kindness, but a proper clean out and replace would be good!

After I checked into the motel time for dinner. I had a rough idea of how many I needed to get the 120, but was not confident and so did a few extra just in case (thankfully I did). Headed to the pub and had dinner and then wandered around some caches in town with a torch and found all except one (D4) - so was happy with that.
Next one on the way to dinner. Parked nearby and the hint made sense straight away. Hide was revealed quickly (wouldn't have liked to bang this one in the dark) and signed the log. Replaced as found and now time for lamb cutlets!

A morning's caching mission in Yass, to top up my find numbers for the day. A quick find here. TFTC.

Yass to Cootamundra today, with about all the detours one can imagine. Again a great day of caching with a mix of traditionals and multi's. Luckily lots of tools in the car

Tankengine and I had two important caches to deal with today. TE had offered to help me replace a cache I dropped down a pipe on the way here and he had a mutli in Yass to do so he could clear the town out once and for all - well until the next cache is published here anyway.
This cache: I couldn’t get it, but my extraction tool Tankengine got it for me. Luckily he's stronger than I am. Thanks TE! And Tftc team.wallace!!!

#311 Here for the Murrumbateman Field Days and doing some caches afterward. Cleverly thought out cache and some local knowledge to boot. Found the gas and no cache, ah, more gas, didn't need TOTT. Actually tried other spot first. One of those caches where you wonder which part of the process occurred first to come up with the hide. TFTC and a fav.
Had us going for a little while although we knew we were at GZ. Eventually tried harder and all was revealed. Thanks team.wallace for your little sneaky cache.
Out there for a solid 20minutes looking everywhere, no luck. Checked every possible place it could be and still no luck, found the GAS clue still nothing. If anyone could help us find it that would be greatly appreciated, we’re dying to find this one
The noisy muggle dog over the road made it very difficult to retrieve this one surreptitiously. We also had to use more force than we might have expected to access the cache, but kept persisting as we couldn’t see another likely spot. In the end we prevailed and logged the cache. TFTC
On the long trek back to SA after the Oz Geomuster. Grabbing caches as we go. TFTC
Found 11:15 am with partner we were now our way home from Yass after staying at Swaggers motel. We had been out to visit family for 50th party in Yass and as usual I wanted to find a cache or two. I had found a number of caches from Yass to Sydney back 2018 but had lost my log entries when my phone was busted (about 150) I’ve been slowly identifying some of these. This cache wasn’t one of those. I wasn’t sure at first it’s location looked at it and then checked other spots and then back again but used an “extraction” tool. Logging this I now get the tool hint. Signed the log and returned cache to its hiding spot.
Thanks for the cache.
