Great little hide here. Agree that the coordinates are a few metres out, but the hint was very helpful! Felt very small next to these big silos. TFTC
Found this on my way home from a trial run weekend away in my new Motorhome. As others have said, I too found the co-rods out by 6 or 7 metres, but the clue quickly gave up the cache. Nice hide and well executed. Thanks Team Campion for bringing me here today and for the hide. Adding a fave
Coordinates are a bit out but putting all the clues together still made it a quick find! TFTC!
Found on the way to Bendigo with The X-Trailers.A lovely brisk sunny morning.A quick find and on our way.TFTC
Found with Grubbs1337 and ITWimdy. A great day out with Dad and his mate.Thanks for the cache
Nearly gave up, as was struggling with gps and internet signal, hint definitely helped and then the aha moment, thank you
After leaving Bridgewater, it is time to start heading home. However, not before getting some more geocaches. Especially while trying to take a huge dint out of the 12 and 20 geocaches in each LGA challenge. Never cached in the Loddon nor Mount Alexander Local Government Areas, there are lots to select, but we do only have a small time window.We were just walking towards the GZ, wondering how long this would take when I spotted it. Could have taken a while if we came from the other side.Thanks for the cache, Team Campion.Hunter
Sir_spectre and I had hoped to join in the fun of the Mega in Canberra but unfortunately life got in the way so we planned a trip for a few weeks later. We might have missed all the great events and catching up with geocaching friends from far and wide but at least we got to find lots of great caches still.Any cache that needed some love got it, if possible.Thanks
Needed to get some more finds in this LGA. quick find.Found with Mogni. Myself and mogni are headed off to canberra on the " I missed the Capital GeoBash Mega " holiday, since last minute family problems came in to play and we had to adjust our plans by a few weeks. On the way over we targeted multi's, wherigo's and puzzles to make sure we had 25 in each or at least close to that total ( or more ) as possible, getting as many new New South Wales LGA's as possible, the 17th most favourite point NSW cache and every cache size in New South Wales.In the ACT it was getting 2 of the 5 oldest letterboxes, oldest wherigo in Australia, 2nd oldest earthcache ( with a side trip to get the oldest earthcache of course ), and ACT oldest cache too. I also hosted a CITO and planned on getting every different cache type i could and eevry different cache size as well. I also needed 9 more virtuals this trip to get my virtual count over 100. Finally canberra was far enough away from from house to complete the well aged well travelled cacher 0 to 1000 kms with a cache every 10 km's ( i only need 7 more caches to complete )Leaving the ACT it was going via Victoria to get there last active web cam cache and slowly getting a total of 20 finds in each LGA i passed through if i had enough time plus also hosting a CITO in Victoria as well. A busy 11 days. Trust me by the end of the holiday you would have thought the 6 meter ladder weighed more than 13 kg's to amount of times it was used or carried up hills or over creeks. If your cache was found with a broken container/lid it was replaced or if the log was full it was replaced or a extra log if the container was big enough ( except for nano's, do your own maintenance on nano's.
A generous clue led to a quick find here of exactly the hide we were expecting.When extracted lots of little pieces of damp log sheet went everywhere.A strange smell at GZ turned out to be the hay stored in the shed.Thanks Team Campion, always enjoy these hides.
Hello there happy to look further but cant find it but its this pic that maybe its gone adrift? This is magnetically attached to the side of the boxThanks on my KTM
Camping at NewBridge for the week, out for the day sightseeing. Once at GZ we had to wait for a muggle to load his truck before searching in earnest. The cache was quickly found and log signed. The lig is now completely full, and falling apart so some CO maintenance is required. TFTC
In Bendigo servicing my car, I decided to target some specific caches here and there, trying to satisfy the Challenge checker.
This one was a little further out than I intended to go, but it was an "other", and they are getting few and far between.
Thank you Team Campion for the cache which was found in good condition, maybe needing a new log soon.

Found by Aussie Train Driver 08/05/2023, find number 1677.
Catching up on some belated logging today. I've passed here many times on the train but finally had the chance to drop by in the car and find this cache.
As they say it's always in the first place you look but you never find it the first time. This was a needle in a haystack and I looked at the cache many times without realising what it was (despite having found this type of cache before!). After an extensive search of the area, compounded by the GPS bouncing off the silos, I resorted to the hint (thank you for providing such a helpful hint!) and soon had my name in the log book. Very tricky!

Thanks to the hint this was a quick find. Log papers are quite damp but we managed to sign okay.
Thank you.
Thank you.
The three of us were heading home after a holiday in north east Victoria. We stopped here to find the virtual, and to have a break from driving.
We drove close to GZ and started to search. We knew it when we saw it - thanks to the hint.
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Team Campion.

I have been Geocaching for the last year as part of team Dromaniax. We have enjoyed the Geocaching caching around a lot of Victoria in that time. From our first trip up to the Murray River, the next trip to Lake Eildon and the area around Buxton, an epic trip to the Little Desert to attack the This is SA series, then a great trip with our father to the High Country in Victoria, a trip to the Mornington Peninsula and a trip to the Albury-Hume Reservoir area.
I finally decided to set up my own account and am claiming all the caches I have found as part of Dromaniax.
Thank you for this Traditional cache Team Campion

I was on a road trip with sushilord heading to Bendigo for a few days and finding caches far and wide. We weren't after numbers just out of the way places and caches with lots of favourite points. We had an enjoyable and fun time, but I was stuffed by the time we got home.
The area looked abandoned so we were able to drive right up to GZ where we started looking in the wrong place, then looked at the hint and it made sense and the cache was soon found.
Thanks for the cache Team Campian.

JJ52 and myself had a fun and productive three days traveling to visit Bendigo and finding some caches along the way. Any excuse to stretch the car's legs.
Our GPS had us looking in the wrong locations until JJ looked at the hint and everything became clear.

This was to be the 1 of 13 finds for the day on our way from Bendigo to StArnaud with Ghihash to go camping and of course caching.
This one has us stumped for a bit but after finally trusting my instincts over my gps we made it to gz, now where is the thing we want? Ghihash quickly spotted it and we signed

Was looking in the wrong places until we read the hint and realised out gps had us 5m away. Reading the hint we had a quick find. Tftc Found with k9team
#5026 Out and about for a drive and explore with the geohounds. As we approached gz the rain had started but we managed to make a quick find of the nicely hidden cache. No artwork on this silo yet, although come to think of it we didn't check the other side of the silo . TFTC Team Campion.
Why not grab the only cache in town. We stopped by this very lonely silo. Not a great deal happening here, in what once would have been a busy location. A nice quick easy find too. Thanks for placing.
As we headed towards Bendigo, we stopped to look for this cache. It took a while to locate, having to widen our search area before locating the cache in an obvious location about 8m from the published coordinates. Unfortunately the logbook was damp but still signable. Thanks Team Campion for a well designed and placed cache.
Jinky and John are on a jaunt from Geelong to Ararat, to St Arnaud, Bendigo, Moama and back to Geelong. A tentative crossing of the NSW / Vic border, but a crossing not done since BC! This had us going for a while, as our GPS had us scrutinising a different structure. Once we'd worked that out, John recognised the cache. A sneaky cache as has been said before, TFTC,.

With Mrs P and daughter heading home a day early due to the wet weather I now had a day all to myself to cache to my hearts' content! So I chose to take a tour of the region and see some parts I haven't travelled to before. Was well and truly pouring rain when I pulled up so I had a look at the possible location for this hide on Google maps. Headed straight to that spot and waisted some considerable time unsuccessfully searching for anything resembling your clue or cache. Resorting to reading previous logs back in the shelter of the car and then I read how far off the coordinates were (15m) and found the location straight away. Thx Team Campion for the cache regardless.

Nice quick find, good hide! I loved the smell of grain but Lewis immediately got hayfever. Thanks for the cache
In Dunolly camping with sassieold55 for a couple of days. Noticed this cache was on our way past. I reckon I got a dejavu of history as I could still smell the grain. Hint was a big help as my coords were way out. TFTC
GPS had me 9 m away and lucky ou've seen a cache like this before. Very clever and thank you. Heading back home after a freedom camping trip and happy this was on the way
Mr. Dromaniax and his muggle brother headed North to the Murray for a weekend of camping and Geocaching. We pulled in here to look for the cache and we had a reasonable idea of what type of cache we were looking for and found it exactly where we expected it to be. As we were retreiving the cache a truckdriver unloading haybales asked us if we were lost and we said that we were OK, he was satisfied and went back to what he was doing. The cache is in excellent condition. Thank you for this cache Team Campion
TFTC hint was excellent. Created new log as existing was too wet to use. Added thicker plastic bag with some waterproof tape.
Super cool one!!! Gotta look hard. GPS doesn't really help. Turn around look hard
Out with BogongHazy for a few caches this afternoon.
We decided to head to St Arnaud to grab these highly thought of caches.
This was found in the dark on the way home.
Great hide, thanks Team Campion

Out for the afternoon with LittleBoss2 , so we headed to St Arnaud for a few caches and a couple of Labcaches to top it off.
We found this in the dark on our return to Bendigo.
LB2 was onto this straight away, a great use for this type of cache.
Our thanks to Team Campion for bringing us here

The GPS had GZ at a different location, but once I turned around I was able to spot something NQR.

We needed to stretch our legs a few times so chose this as one of our stops. Pretty cool area,.luckily the people doing track maintenance had moved on. Tftc clever hide.
Managed to park close by and with absolutely nobody else around it was only a very short search and a good one to, thanks for sharing this interesting location signed and replaced...TFTC

Out caching today with Stemicmitsar out North today to go out and do se caching around Melville Caves. With some multi progress and oldest 500 caches on the radar for the day.
Early start for a big day of driving and all in all no real issues or DNF's for the entire day. Thanks for the caches and the good day out.

*Found on the 15 May 2021 @ 11:50 am.*
*Cache find # 11733.*
Today I headed North with buhfuhguh to continue a mission we had started a little while ago which is now getting closer to the end.
Along the way there were some other caches that needed to be found for different reasons, this being on of them.
This was just a random stop to have a look, the gps wanted us to be in a different spot to where the cache was but after checking in with the hint we were able to make the find.
**Thanks to Team Campion for placing this cache.**

Awesome, took my brother out for his first cache and this was a great start! P5W!
After a great night sleep at camp last night in Lockwood, I woke up early for a big day of caching through the Bendigo region, Bridgewater, Serpentine, Prairie and Echuca. A great day out, lots of finds, only 2 DNFs.
Took quite a while of wandering around for my GPSr to settle on a location. Got there in the end. TFTC.

COs- Apologies for the late log, I'm seriously behind and trying to catch up!?????
The date of this log entry is the date I actually visited your cache.

?????Absolutely ecstatic to be on another geo road trip after a covid induced drought on travel! YAY!??
Being from Queensland, I know I'm taking a chance on getting back in again, but nothing ventured, nothing gained!??
(did get back home before a retro fitted quarrantine order and was out of Victoria the day before it took effect!)??
My aim this time is to get to Ballarat for the Geotour, events and catch up with friends. (Deferred twice already!) Afterwards I'll return home via the Paddle Steamer? series near Mildura to do what I can of them before I have to return home. ??
??I'm also trying to cache in as many LGAs as possible en route and avoid major centres further east being a new game plan atm. ??Also have to keep up to date with changing border restrictions in case of having to abandon all plans and make a desperate dash home,????? so that adds an unusual layer of challenge to this trip.??
??This cache...
?which challenge/ why?
?LGA challenge
?have a stickybeak??
Quick find here, signed log and continued on my way.
Adding some pics of some things I saw on the way here.

Out for a mental health day. With some caches to go. Thanks for bring me to these interesting locations. TFTC.
Second time here and today was a winner. At first I was looking in the wrong spot but then I took note of the clue. “Eureka” the cache was found, signed and replaced. The log is full, thanks Team Campion.
Hopefully next time.. saw a lot of rubbish and inhalers.. Looked around everywhere and got a few shots on the camera too!
Very inventive device used to hide this geocache, won't give too much away but it definitely does blend in with its surroundings well.
Definitely a favourite.
Definitely a favourite.
I met another cacher here who had just found this chap. It would not have taken me long to sniff out though. Great spot for a cache.
Found with Kellmik while in Bendigo for our Central Victorian Mythmas Caching holiday.

A work trip brought me here; a spot I've passed a couple of times in recent years but not a suitable spot to stop with a bus load of passengers
I managed to stumble on this cache quite quickly, In fact, I spotted it as I drove in - something not quite in a spot I would expect to find one.
My thanks to Team Campion for this cache.
