OZ CreekZ Gateway Island, Victoria, Australia
By OZREG on 10-Jan-17. Waypoint GC6Z60C

2 reasons archived. 1. Went missing due to tree lopping and area changes. Site grew to be somewhat unpleasant.

Confirmed missing cache. Shall replace ASAP.

Looked in obvious places, GPS had GZ in the water. DNF

Very small container!

Out doing a cache run with Roostaman, to try and clean up an area.
It was an ideal day, as it wasn't too hot. Good company and lots of fun.
Many thanks for placing this cache, OZREG, for us and others to find.

On a slight overcast day, thought I would get out and find a few caches. Love the spot. Thanks OZ Reg.

Not the big one

Nice views up to the bridges. Council have been busy in the nearby park - new plantings and tidying. Magic river red gums keep watch, as they have done for who knows how long!

Found quickly just before a fisherman arrived nearby.
TFTC!!

Too way longer than it should of

found it

Very clever hide. Took 2 attempts. Co ordinates possibly slightly off.

Happy to turn this DNF into a smiley today! After spending ages here a year ago then learning a number of DNFs were to follow I wasn’t sure how I’d go today. Well I arrived and I found it in the first place I looked. Writing this log took longer than the find! Ha
Nice sunny day today and I’m glad to see the area has been cleaned up from all the rubbish that was here last time I visited.

Took GeoDaughter to the playground while in the area as well.

Cache is all good. Checked today.

Spent 1/2 hour couldn’t find

Lovely and wet it has rained quite muddy. Bring a pen . Left a red guitar pick. Keep on Rockin

Beautiful time of the evening(see photo) couldn't find this one twice before but got it today

A déjà vu moment and a tardy late log. Always fantastic to be on a Murray R wander. TFTC

Easy find

The two friendly dog that greeted us scared us and kind of lead us to it.

Out with the oc checking if caches are all good. Had to re-position this one where it should have been.

Had what I thought was a really thorough look but no find here today...

Had to walk over the footbridge to get to GZ from our parking spot, then realised we could have driven much closer. Made our way to GZ and searched around places fitting the hint, but we were out of luck. Couldn't find it. Our thanks anyway to OZREG.

Quick find

Easyish find at dusk. TFTC

Quick stop and grab with jackez74

Quick grab with matho64. Co ords were out a little. TFTC.

Found this one sitting out in the open. I placed it where I thought it should go

Will be back another time to search for the little geo.

Down by Poseidon’s home

GeoP is in town for work & had a little bit of time to go for a walk. Lovely spot with a nice view of the bridges.

What a Beautiful spot. Even saw a platypus. Thanks

Another delayed log. Was out and about with Geodaughters and convinced them to go get a few caches and this was one of them. Nice sneaky hide as I'm sure it gets a few around campers and fishers around this area. Thanks Reg for all these great caches for us to chase.

Memories

Quite often i will grab some lunch on a Friday and sit in my car by the suspension bridge, enjoying the sunshine and maybe reading a book. I always noted the road over here and meant to see what was there. Well, i have now decided this will be my new place to have lunch and was the world float on by.
TFTC.

And another of Reg’s on the other side of the River. New container in good condition. SL at 10.14am TNLN #5488 TFTC OZREG - continuing on to find some more of yours along the ‘Trail’.

This was cache number two for the day and after the pleasant stroll from the swing bridge, which was taken up with sending and receiving text messages from a good friend, we got down to business.....which took longer than it should have due to the number of hiding places and the previous finder doing a good job of rehiding the container
So we signed the log then wandered back to the car, still texting.....

YAY for Friday curriculum days off school. We had looked for this cache before with no joy so arrived at the GZ hopefully optimistic. Mrs LW was head down looking at the GPS and trying to follow the arrow when Little Miss M piped up with, "FOUND IT!!!". Thanks for bringing us to this lovely spot OZReg.

Sorry for the late logging. I was going to log on the app at the time for as the rain was coming in, it was more important to get the juniors and pram back in the car and get out of there quickly. Then I hadn't sat down at my computer for a while (life has got in the way) to change the date to log it on the correct date. Thanks again OzReg.

Great hide. Took us a while. Well spotted by Cienna. The creek looks a lot different at this time of the year. TFTC.

Always suspicious of consecutive DNF's. Many of my Caches checked today (7 Jul). This one was indeed missing. Now replaced with temp film canister and new log. Same loc.

Elusive today AND a ton of rubbish around

Spent some time but no luck

Spent a bit of time scratching around at GZ, even broadened my search area but if it’s here it eluded me today.
There’s a big bag of rubbish nearby and a good around around GZ, hopefully the cache is not caught up in it.

Thanks Reg

Nope no luck today

Managed a nice straight forward find while grabbing a few caches with omegaman1971, signed the log while taking in some great views over the river, thanks OZREG for the hide.

# omegaman1971

Back in the area to attend a CITO event and to catch up with some caching pals over the weekend.
Cheers for the cache

Surprised to see the river so low today, must have really cut the water release down from the dam.
Only 1 car parked a bit further on to worry about but Gz was out of view so I could make the find no problem.

TFTC , Cheers.

Don't venture to this part of town often so was nice for a bit of a drive. River is well down at the moment. The Ez boys had a hunt around in the wrong spot for a minute before being redirected and came up trumps. TFTC OzReg

This one at least was quick - had to put the geohound on a leash because of grazing cattle

Thank you 4th of the day

This was my easy but lost pen. Tftc

Why not bring a rod

Needing a cache for my calendar, this was a quick drive by, even though the entrance was a bit boggy after all the recent rain.
Thanks OZREG for placing the cache for us to find.

The sun is out for the first time in over a week so we are enjoying being out and about caching. Bit damp underfoot though.
TFTC

River down very low this time of year, very quiet and relaxing
Indianagleeson found the cache quickly while I took photos

TFTC!
Found with Shellumbus.

Found as Nicnax with PapaGrouch. I looked in the wrong spot first then GPS wanted me to go down a steep bank, that didn't seem right so I got out from under the trees and managed to get a better direction indication which took me to the correct spot. TFTC

Great view here and an easy cache. TFTC

This was the next for the evening and was a quick find

Initially searched around the wrong location before searching a few meters away and made an easy find. Signs of the recent storms that went through the area with limbs off trees. TFTC

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

I like it

Another one off the list

**# 15679** Found on our 2017 summer escape to Vic trip.
And it's another warm summer day for a drive around on a stopover in Albury.
I searched the wrong area for a while and eventually tried the other spot a few metres away.
Very quiet and no muggles around here today.
Thanks for the cache OZREG,

A quick trip over to Wodonga this evening meant a visit to a location that I had never been to before.
I had been in the general area but not ventured over the bridge, so after doing so I alighted the vehicle and walked the 100-or-so metres to GZ.
A nice evening to be down by the waterside, and with plenty of water in the creek a jet-skier cruised past before a search was attempted.
Once the gps settled a likely spot was seen and searched, and the hide was soon found.
SL at 7.15pm. All ok with the find.
A nice spot for a stroll and to take in the splendour of the Wodonga creek. TFTC OZREG.

Found it

Quick find today, was doing a couple of laps of the lake when I remembered this new cache, so walked around to location and was all clear of muggle anglers as it was getting a little windy and few spots of rain, TFTC

My niece was having a sleepover & was keen to find a cache so we made a slight detour past this one on our way home. I could of sworn a sprinkling of rain occurred while looking for this one....but no clouds in the sky meant something else not so refreshing was going on.....Couldn't spot any birds in the tree & thought I was imaging it til the kids copped a spray also!!! We've decided the cicadas were weeing on us! Made for a quick find, log signing & retreat from under the canopy. Tftc OZREG

We got the cicada wee too. Not too much chance of muggles around here. Tx GeoStevo

Enjoyed finding this cache as the sun was going down and the full moon rising, but with plenty of light remaining. Not a cache you would do after dark..
A quick sign of the log required as quite a few sprinkles from the cicadas above. Thanks for the cache ozreg.

Great view

Great little FTF with tbaarda. I might have to vibe back here fishing one day. Thanks for the cache.
