Great! TFTF

Quick find on our way to station stay. Seen it as soon as I pulled up

A super quick find after doing the fascinating Min Min Light tour @ the info centre in Boulia. Not in the tree, but on the fence line, which I think is more suitable & how it should be out here in the country anyway.

Like the little trackable stones in this one, great idea 'life in a moab'! TFTC*Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*

Found it easily on the fence, now we are heading back to town towards Birdsville.TFTH

A perfect place for a cache! A quick stop off on our trip from Albany to the cape. TFTC

Quick park and grab on our way to Boulia on our way to Cape York with Hally4.TFTC

The outback way! TFTC.

No need to jump the fence here. Spotted easily from the road. TFTC

The fence is new and it was going to take a decent effort to extract from the published GZ coords. Luckily a replacement is located low on the fence. Thanks to the generalmanager for this stopping spot before hitting Boulia.

Found a long way from the GZ - I suspect a throwdown placed when the fence was erected. TFTC!

A quick find - well have to do the Putback way another day, we are heading east after Boulia. Too much to see and do! Thanks for the hide

Thanks for the cache! Had a wonderful time in Boulia trick or treating with the locals last night. Continuing our Outback Way Adventure.

Travelling with RoddyC Snickersallan, grannysmith1947.Today was a mixed day of dashing off here and there to pick up some target caches.Another diversion for this one.TFTCache The Outback Way

Day 2 of our Outback Way adventure road trip, and after an overnight stay in Boulia, we headed down south to get an old cache before heading back to town.A quick fuel up, and we are on the road again to find another old cache, and this one happened to be on the way there.Accompanied by RoddyC, hatzofff, and grannysmith1947, we stopped nearby, and we soon had cache in hand Thank you, The Outback Way, for placing this cache for our benefit and enjoyment

QOGM successfully over and time for another drive further from home following along behind the QOGM Team. Thanks for this one. TFTC The Outback Way

TFTC smile 16845 out and about on a lovely day signed and replaced on a road trip with geocaching friends Thank you The Outback Way for placing this cache for our enjoyment

QOGM is over, so now is the opportunity to take a few days bresk and head to Mount Isa via Boulia with hatzofff, Grannysmith1947 and Snickersallan.Park and grab. Log signed and cache replaced as found at 10:17 am on 25 September 2023. TFTC, The Outback Way

Our journey to North Queensland will take us through many different towns. 

Here's one to find today. Thank you for placing the cache   generalmanager.

We are off on a trip to the Birdsville Races and then across to Queensland - the plan is for about 6 weeks of travel - all going well.

Week 1 we have travelled from Portland to Farrell's Flat near Clare.
Week 2 was Clare to Port Augusta.
Week 3 Port Augusta to Birdsville
Day 22 Beans Loo to Dajarra Dam bush camping

The races are run and now we are heading for Mount Isa with a couple of overnights along the way. We visited the Min Min display in Boulia and collected this one along the way. It is 40m from the coordinates now but is very obvious as you approach.

Thanks for contributing to our holiday generalmanager

When we pulled up here there was a farmer close by who came to see if we were ok. I explained what we were here for and admitted the cache was on the other side of the fence. He was impressed it had been there so long without him knowing but said he'd prefer people not to enter his property. We was happy for me to hook the cache on the fence which is what I've done. Tftc

A find for us today whilst staying in Boulia for the Camel Races. Nice hide

It was up my bum

Lol

TFTC quick find. Watch the prickly bush. Not to mention the prickly wire as well.

Great to have a cache at this intersection. Outback caches are too rare to bypass or lose. Unfortunately there has been a new fence erected and the cache is now inside the paddock of the pastoral property. Either a CO note saying permission has been granted by the property manager ( may be granted given the location) or it will need to be shifted.

TFTC and the same from Gray Inc.

With a new property fence being erected here we don’t think this cache will be in play much longer unless it’s moved.
We found the cache, signed the log and replaced where found (hooked on the dead tree stump - nothing like the hint suggests).

Cache and log are in good condition.
Thank you.

Tftc nice town heading home to dunolly vic

On our way home from the BRB TFTC

On my way to NT via Birdsville Queensland with a few detours for shires. TFTC.
Great to get a cache 9n the outback way. I might get them all one day.

Out with Shumba7 ???? on a road trip through the centre to Birdsville for the Big Red Bash. TFTC

TFTC. Found with Algae ️we are on a road trip from Ballarat to Birdsville, off to the big red bash. Grabbing some smilies along the way in some towns. Saw a squirrel up a tree here…
First stop from Ballarat - Beaufort, Ararat, Great Western, Stawell, Underbool, Murrayville, time travelled and lost all our fruit and veg in the process..…… South Australia - Loxton, Worlds End, Mount Bryan, Orrorro, Parachilna, Coward Springs, William Creek, Oodnadatta, Dalhousie Springs, Mount Dare, Northern Territory - Finke, Lamberts Centre of Australia, Kulgera, Curtain Springs, Ayres Rock, The Olgas, Yalara, Mount Connor, Kings Canyon, Kathrine Springs, Ellery Waterhole, Gemtree, Tobermorey, Boulia.…. Lots of purple and yellow flowers in the dessert….and now onto the next.

Got through without being torn up.

Found at 12:01:00 PM(t) GAFF1.
We were a bit perplexed on arrival as to why there was a barbed wire fence between where we were and where the GPSr pointed to where the cache was!
Decided that if p-pprass could get through the fence without shredding clothes or skin, then it was alright to enter - so he did enter
Cache found in the very first spot that was looked at.
Thanks generalmanager.

Heading to Boulia, Bedourie and Birdsville. This was one of our targeted caches to get new LGAs. Thanks hopefully next time we're here we're heading to Laverton.

So fun

It’s great to just be hanging around in the attempt to the find the cache! Worth the slipping and sliding

Found it after doing a few circles, TFTC

Great way . TFTC

Cool

Found it

Enjoy travelling with DeafCat, DeafPhantom and DeafVW TFTC

Awesome with DeafPhantom DutchAus DeafVW

Found it with Deaf group
Beautiful outback

Been fenced in now. Tftcsl

Handy to have another pair of hands to help with the barbed wire. TFTC

Was finally able to get away on my 2021 trip up to outback Qld.
The original plan was to go up through NSW but that got changed on the morning of the departure so up through SA it was.
Was very apprehensive about towing the new van up the Birdsville track but my only other option was to stay home.
Well the caravan has made it up the track and after hitting Boulia for the Camel Races I had a look around town.
This shortcut is on my bucket list and one day when the world returns to normal I might get to do it.
A new fence with vicious barb wire doesn’t help getting to this one.

Thanks The Outback Way TFTC.

That’s some pretty serious barbed wire. Although once past that the cache was soon in hand. TFTC

Yep. Found and new fence is an obstacle.

Yep! But a new fence which needs to be crossed might indicate a relocation. TFTC

Found with SJG66 as headed North to check out the Northern Territory.

There was the remains of an old damaged cache container there which we removed. TFTC.

Found with O319 on our way north to Darwin

It seems a fence has been built between us and GZ but it wasn't enough to keep Karicka out. Quick find and then we headed west to find ET. Thanks for the cache

A weekend drive from Mt Isa.
Started with a find in Isa then down the lonely road here.
Spotted a few nomads, brolgas and cattle along the road.
A new fence did not deter me from doing a roll under.

Thank you for hiding this geocache The Outback Way

Thanks for the cache.
Cheers

Good drive by pick upTftc

Greetings....contents ok. We have replaced the zip lock bag for log.
However, case itself is not secure any more and needs replacing - sorry, our containers were not the right size. Cheers, Gerard & Duky

Nice quick drive by. Cache is in excellent condition

It was hard

Nice easy find. The box clips look ready to fall apart ... not much shade out there!

Tftc! Awesome.

Thank you for bringing us here

An easy find as we turned towards Boulia for the night.

Found it, thanks for replacement TFTC

Found. Watch out for all the prickles.

We placed a new cache here as we had previously found the cache. All good for the next hunter.

Timberrr!! Cache has lost its support branch and as previously stated lost in the rubble at base. Had a look to no avail. Sorry.

This one appears to be missing. The tree mentioned has been knocked over and is covered with flood debris. We searched for a long time, widening the search to include other small shrubs nearby but no luck. I am guessing if someone wanted to dig through the rubble the cache is probably beneath

We were really hoping to find this one as it is the start of the outback way.
Logging now, late log, as DNF.
Message and photo sent to CO regarding concerns of missing cache due to tree being knocked over by grading. No response and recent DNF leads me to believe it is certainly missing.

A quick find while heading into town. One day we'll do that west-bound road, but it wasn't to be on this trip. TFTC.

Great trip. Cheers

A nice easy find on our way down to Birdsville. Thanks for the cache hide

Quick easy find on a day trip to Boulia. Tftc.

Easy one and good reason for photo nearby

Found after spending the night in Boulia. A quick find. Signed log and returned as found. TFTC

On a road trip to Darwin with muggle mate we stopped here before heading north. Walked up to GZ and had CIH quickly. TFTC

A quick find while visiting Boulia today. Thanks generalmanager for the cache.

Over the past few weeks a group of us explored the Simpson Desert traversing along the Rig Road, WAA Line, French Line and the Hay River Track. Wow what an adventure we had out in the desert, except for the flies!

An easy find at GZ.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

The Big Western Australia trip in 2018. Day 6. With more flies for company in this roadside reserve, I was up Early to beat them today. Fuel in Boulia took me west all the way to Gemtree along the Plenty Highway.

A nice simple roadside stop before heading on my way west.

Thanks.

Heading through to Winton, in Boulia for a couple of days. A quick find this morning TFTC

After a leisurely bush camp last night and a few drinks around the camp fire we got off to a bit of a late start today and the sun was well up by the time we opened our eyes but that's what holidays are about

We are slowly marking off these caches and enjoying everyone of along this drive, it has been a fantastic few days and these caches have helped to make us stop and stretch our legs along the way as well as also learning bits and pieces as we go.

We located the cache quickly and added our name to the ;log before moving on to Boulia. There was so much to see and do here we decided to spend the night and make the most of it.

Many thanks once more way-finder for placing this cache.

Quick easy find but not sure if the cache guardian will last much longer all good with the cache though TFTC

Found while on our central trip
