Duntryleague Shed Orange, New South Wales, Australia
By drobbonz on 07-Mar-19. Waypoint GC84FV5

This geocache is now in a fenced off area. It isn't a suitable place anymore.

Not having our best day today. Like albida33, we had an idea what we might be seeking, but were ready to look for anything. Searched our indicated GZ, and an expanded area around it, but couldn't find anything. Our thanks anyway to drobbonz.

Bathurst trip October 2022. Day 1. I heard there was to be a Community Celebration Event in Bathurst on Tuesday, so I planned on a two day camping caching trip to join in. Rain threatened both days but only fell a few times, except overnight when it seemed to rain all night. The trip was Canberra, Cowra, Bathurst, Millthorpe, Orange, Bathurst and home again via Cowra. I managed lots of caches and enjoyed the trip away.

The next group of caches was around the Duntry golf course and I found all but one of those I attempted. There is work on new gates going on, but I cannot see how that would impact a cache where my phone said to look, but I failed to locate it. I seemed clear what I was looking for, but I may well have made a wrong assumption.

Thanks.

An unexpected public holiday was the reason for a long weekend in the area of Orange.
Today we decided to explore the wider area of Orange, and of course I had to pick up a few caches along the way.

TFTC!

Good job thanks.

Travelling from TAS. Here for three nights, mostly to chase solved caches. What better thing to do on a bleak July day with a max. 5 degrees ? Out again this afternoon, and have made our way around the precinct to end up here. Had a fairly decent look and grope around without a result, moved on to two others in the series and came back after considering the clue and a previous post or two. Had the little bugger in hand quickly, bag completely wrecked but we had a new one. Waterproof paper can always be dried off with geo-towel in our caching kit. Thanks for another clever one, and have another favourite drobbonz !

Found after wondering around GZ. Just what I suspected.

Nice quick find, thanks for the fun

Glad to come to this area. TftC.

School holidays are over and time to do some caching!
Heading Mudgee/Dubbo/Orange areas looking to find some.
Thanks to the owners for the hides we find on our trip.

SLTFTC drobbonz ?

Tftc - wet but log AOK

Tftc - easy find

Up at Orange for a couple of days to see family. While I waited for them to get organised I had some time to kill so I thought I would collect these three in an area I had visited on a previous trip.

Last one for this group. Drove up and parked near the shed. Based on the hint knew what to look for and it was a quick find. Given the hide type the log is very wet but lucky this paper is writeable.

Again an excellent hide. TFTC

Camping at the Showgrounds. Bathurst Dat 2
Later in the day we found a few caches around the town area.
This was a good way to tour the area. A good variety of hides & caches found.
Thankyou drobbonz for placing this cache.

Thank you we found it it was a little bit wet. So we dried it out as best as we could. The bag has a he in it.

Thanks for the cache drobbonz

Daughter and I came out to Orange for an overnight pub stay. We brought the bikes, knowing there were parks and trails around the place. This one took a little while to find as the app took a while to decide to point to the correct spot. Tftc.

Quickly found Thanks for the cache

Clearly not meant to be there.

You sprinkled my day with happiness

What does a geocaching orienteerer do with a free morning? Goes geocaching of course. The Duntryleague series was the first of the chosen caches and it was an enjoyable walk with a variety of hides to keep the mind ticking over.

The cache was quickly spotted, don't know if it is supposed to be so exposed but I left it as found.

Thanks for the cache and the series drobbonz.

Tftc

I often like to think I keep y mind out of the gutter. Not so this time, I drained a fair bit of time on this one before working out where I needed to look. Wait, I'm on a golf course and so is a suburb?

On a trip to Dubbo for a long weekend away from Canberra. It's been a while since I've managed a geo-trip so it's good to be on the road again. It's also very hot, days on the mid 30's are hard going. First stop is Cowra, then Canowindra, Molong and Wellington. I returned via Orange and Crookwell for a bit of variety.

Interesting container.

Thanks drobbonz

Great hint and a quick grab with good coordinates. The lat few gz have been off. TFTC

Found it. Thanks for replacing

Replaced this one today. All good to go!

Ivy that is mentioned in prev logs has been cleared,. Dnf for us

Found with Joshwyatt83 and ArmyBrats4 and Blayke04

It’s not what you think...

While 2020 was personally and professionally challenging and then you add in a pandemic, 2021 had a lovely start with an event and a few caches along the way. Hopefully the theme for this year will be good laughs and good health.
Although NRC and my original SA plans may have been shutdown by the border closures, we decided to venture out anyway into our immediate backyard of NSW and pick up some counties and some much needed R&R.
TFTC

After a huge 2020 it seemed only right to have 2021 start off with a smile. So with SA and VIC plans on hold once again, we decided to join the local New Year’s Day event and then head off north west to find some more counties for K8TYBEE. The event was so fun we stuck around for some team caching! Finally on the road we swung by here to grab a cache. Master plan is to hit Grenfell, Orange and swing back to Parkes

So cold!!! Such a surprise after the warmth of the car. K8TYBEE for the win on this clever little cache. Great way to mark another county in the bag for her today!

Nice find when staying at Duntryleague overnight. Thanks drovbomz for the find

Quick find while on a stroll to break the drive. Favourite for the series here. Tftc

Greate decoy

Quick find in the cold & wet. There were still a few die hards on the course this morning. TFTC.

Gotcha - Found with a bit of searching. Tftc

Found. Thanks

Sneaky hide.
A FP from us for this series.

Found the thirst quencher. Tftc

Tftc. The hint was helpful and not too much of a giveaway!

Easy find. TFTC

Good hints, quick find. TFTC

Quick grab. Tftc

quick easy find

very sneaky

This was another quick find of a container we more or less expected.

Thanks again drobbonz.

A quick and easy find. It was interesting to see the back side of Duntryleague. SL TFTC

Tftc. Parked right in front for a quick find.

A big day of caching between Orange and Wellington and back. Great weather, able to squeeze in a parkrun as well and caches were all found straight forward.
TFTC Wilbert67

Very nice. Not too hard!

Replaced log today! All good to go.

Great hide. Paper is extremely wet and breaks apart. Could not sign log.

Thank you for the adventure

#316 Here for the ANFD 2019 at Borenore and knocked over a couple of caches for an afternoon walk. Always enjoy these innovative containers/hides in places of interest. As with the previous one down the hill, did a double take. Go with the gut instinct. TFTC

Great cache

Found with friends. TFTC

Parking was a bit of a problem today with the number of golfers on the course. Doesn't anyone in Orange work full-time? TFTC drobbonz.

Great hint

TFTC drobbonz. Despite the large number of people playing golf today the area where we found the cache was pretty quiet.

Great views of the golf course on the Duntryleague geocache trail

Bit soggy

Geokid 8 found it as she found something out of place.

Needs new paper very wet

Out with KoolKats today grabbing a few caches. Sneaky hide, lucky I had long tweezers to retrieve log, log very wet.

Sneaky. Fathers day 2019 fun!

Found it. The course is very dry & my tweezers were too short to retrieve the log. I took a photo.
TFTC

A bit damp and needs a new pencil but great hide!

Quick find during my night walk. TFTC!

Found. Thank you.

A lot easier to find than I was expecting it to be.
Took longer to put it back with all the muggles walking along the road.

Hatzofff and I are in Bathurst for a few weeks house sitting, and of course have time for lots of caching.

A quick trip to the Orangeairport was necessary this morning, so an unplanned day in Orange.

Good. Just as expected.

Log signed and replaced on May 28, 2019 at 1:58 PM. TFTC, drobbonz.

Out with RoddyC today taking our host to Orange for a flight to Sydney. Thought we had better cache today while here.

Quick easy find. Log is fine but moisture in bag.

TFTC, drobbonz.

Clever little hiding spot. Geokids loved it

Found with Happy Jackie on our walk around town. Thanks

A easy find and the coffee was great at the club house.
Thanks.

Clever hide drobbonz!

Something stood out as probably not being supposed to be there. Cache retrieved, log signed and then onwards to the next.

A familiar place to find a cache
I've done a lap of the links before chasing caches galore
Today I was back to play around again,
and find a couple of new caching holes on the course.

Lots of empty cars parked here today,
there must be a tournament on.
Or maybe it was just that this is a popular golf course on any day ?? [:o]

Like being back at skool again,
I snuck around behind the shed,
and finally had this cache smoked

TFTC.

Nicely hidden. Signed and replaced. Cache all good. Tftc

Woot woot! What a double bonus! Fancy coming back all this way again a getting an FTF! Spotted the tag on Cachly while we were out bush and said must see if it’s there when we get back and sure enough.
Lovely to meet you at our event so have a fav.

Thanks for the hide and Drobbonz

Last full day in Orange with megawat60 before we head East to Sydney. We saw the FTF icon come up on the map but did not hold much hope as we were further north still. Swung back on the way “home” and very happy for an Orange *FTF*. Thanks drobbonz for this cache and a nice memory of Orange!
