Today is going to be another big and long day with a bunch of caches to grab on the way to the event in Muttaburra. Then grab a few around Muttaburra township, before heading back to town for more caches and then another event. Oh today also starts with a breakfast event at the showgrounds.The breakfast was good and the fruit platter was a very nice add on. While loading the info into the phone it was great to sit around and chat on peoples thoughts for the day. With the team gathered it was then off to make a mark on some log books. We signed the logs as Misfits and saw a nice variety of caches, with size and terrain not an issue. We all worked well as a team and it was a good practice run for the main event in a couple of days. Thanks for the placements and the time in putting this all together.
Its ON, its Muster Day.We teamed up with JACS Team, Gcoven and Chamad for an action packed day. With papers in hand we made a mad dash around Muttaburra and the surrounding area grabbing a variety of caches along the way.What a crazy day!Thanks for bringing us here.#4008 - TFTC

Something special or unusual goes here:Found. The Generic Bit:QOGM adventure - I was able to catch a ride with Muff1 who were heading to the QOGM event and team up for 3 weeks of caching adventures. 3 weeks in a swag - will my back hold out[?]Day 15 : Muttaburra Muster Day. Today was all about team work. dghoffy joined muff1 and myself to make up the team for the muster today. DMB didn't just roll off the tongue as a team name so we considered that we all came from different States to form the team so Team Name of Three States was adopted and just 3S inserted in the logs for brevity! We managed to find all the caches we attempted today as we had fun making our way to Muttaburra for lunch and then back again to Longreach. we then headed over to Ilfracombe to grab a few more caches waiting for the sun to set to attempt the night cache. **SAs Leap Year Event GCA1DNA - keep the date free - 29th February 2024. - BOING*****Thanks RoddyC for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Logs prepared and published through GSAK.
With my phone refusing to locate me any closer than 15 m from GZ regardless of where I was standing, it was lucky there was some other cachers here to search with me. Jimmyproject made a pretty quick find in a shady spot. Found while visiting Longreach Shire during QOGM 2023. TFTC, RoddyC. =^.^=

We had a spectacular day trip to Muttaburra from Longreach.
We were so glad we made the journey, as this town is full of beautiful artwork and quirky and unusual history.
We visited old sites, shearers camps and an old dunny.
We found a hospital museum and we traced the steps of the muttaburrasaurus.
An excellent day! … and we signed the log on this hide also.
Thanks RoddyC

Great Northern escape 2022 Day 143. Barcaldine Day 2. Today's trip was to Muttabu5rra. It is over 150km so I headed off early. It was a nice drive and there was plenty of caching to do around town and along the nearby river. I ran into Domsky at a key point of the day, it is great to meet up with people in the wild. It was a long hot day, but I enjoyed myself and came home to Barcaldine in time to cook dinner and flop into bed before going out again tomorrow.
As I walked around the garden from the car park, Domsky pulled up on the road and we joined forces to find this cache, before taking the advantage of two phones to check out the Mob cache up the road. Unfortunately Sunday is the wrong day for that one.
Thanks for the cache RoddyC
