Weekend around NSW August 2017. As the owner says it is not there it should be offline until replaced.

Thanks.

Sorry people this has been taken 3 times and replaced 3 times but not a 4th time so time to archive this one

Weekend around NSW August 2017. After delaying my trip due to rain I headed off on Friday morning. The main part of today was spent heading to Tumut and beyond, all in light rain. Nothing to find today.

Thanks.

Have had this cache on our radar on our last 2 visits to Tumut as the only cache we have not found in town, but it has effectively been offline.
Looking forward to it being ready to go on our next visit.

My only DNF today. The original coordinates led me to a drain. I looked for a micro cache hanging in the drain; although it's listed as a 'small' and that wouldn't fit there. I checked a nearby tree, taking into account someone in a wheelchair could apparently reach this. After that, I tried the alternative coordinates, but those was out in the middle of the lawn. I checked nearby objects; even pulled at the small electrical box not near either coordinate, A DNF .

OK today I drove down for a quick look and the container has been removed from the location I originally had it in. Tomorrow I'll do a search and see if I can't put it back where it belongs. I'll also recheck the coordinates.

I was in Tumut after dropping my Brother-In-Law in Batlow. He was riding to Tumut, I was geocaching in and around Tumut!

It was a hot day with a few finds and a few DNFs. Eventually the heat got to me, so I stopped caching and went for a swim in the River.

Cheers

**# 15652** Found on a fine summer day for a drive to Tumut.
A not so quick find and not many muggles around here today.
Surprised at it's location too and finally found it 12m away at .752 & .295.
Thanks for the cache ozpirate,

Coords out by 12 metres.
Looked for ages and ages in the wrong spot. The obvious and what seemed like only spot too...

Eventually dad made the find in the most unusual place. Strange indeed, not really sure why you would want to hide a cache there, but oh well...

On a two day caching trip with Ryan Girls and muggle starlight. Searched all obvious wheelchair-accessible places but could not find it anywhere

Easy find

Easily found thanks

Got it

Found on a caching trip to Tumut with friends. TFTC

After finding the original container that was what I came looking for with my caching buddies from Bathurst and had almost decided it must be gone but no, sharp eyes in the group spotted the new container and it was quickly signed and replaced. TFTC

Found

Omg it's very easy when your phone doesn't tell you your 12m away from it... Thank you to Blackie and Donna for the assistance

We walked round and round but no sight sadly

Hmm not so easy hey, It's about time I had a hard one to find. BTW today I walked by and turned my head around and it's still there. I didn't even have to bend over to see it. Better have another look.

No luck for me today, I had a good look all around at GZ.
No sign of a 'small' anywhere nearby the co-ords.
Hopefully it is still there, and very well hidden.

All good again for now

Yesterday went to see mum at the Nursing home and noticed the container missing. I have replaced it with a new one. If it goes I may forget this in future, but for now go find it, same location different container. Harder to find maybe...

No luck for us after two visits here today and tonight. We'll be back !

Weekend trip to Tumut and beyond with fitzy_1965...

Happy to say this one beat us. Had a couple of ideas, but at each one we came up empty handed. Even came back later in the dark and tried another idea....but same result. One of the things we tried seemed likely, but it also seemed real.....oh well.

Thanks anyway ozpirate.....just means we have one ready for next time.

Well The Emongs called in to tell me there was a new cache in town and he thought that anyone who'd go out in this rain to look deserved a FTF. "What's a bit of rain" I thought when it could mean my second coup in a couple of days so off we went and I soon spotted the likely hide and had the nice clean log signed. Cunning camo, thanks Ozpirates.

Found on a wet and miserable Saturday .I told Brolga this one had came up and I thought it to wet to do lets wait till tomorrow. You can but I'm not was her reply so of we went 15 minutes later the job was done. TFTC SL Cheers 4 Now
