As geocachers have left a bad impression with the locals here we feel it best to archive these caches.
Please remember to be open and honest with locals when looking for caches and PLEASE never enter private property unless the cache attributes, or the cache description, tell you the cache is on private property.

Too much barbed and broken glass to find that one.

Another one I did not find but there was a reason!
 
17-Jan-21
Bit trickier than what we were expecting!
 
17-Jan-21
Ran into not very happy farmers who own this land and had just found it! They said they were worried about underground pipes nearby and cattle being let out of gates due to previous geocachers. Don’t think it will be there for future seekers so wouldn’t bother with this one

After spending the morning and enjoying lunch at Brunswick Heads, my wife and I wondered what to do. We could either go home and spend time wondering how they get bubbles into a sparkling wine or drive on, find some caches and see what else there was. A question came up that is now etched into our brains forever:

“Have you ever been to Mullumbimby?”

Neither of us had so we headed in that direction along this road to find some caches on the way. This one was definitely in an evil spot because there were those really spiky plants and if you weren’t focusing your skin was going to end up like perforated paper. tftc

SO much barbwire

DNF for this one, I looked at all the likely spots you would/could hide a cache around GZ, also looked at previous logs for any hints.. Aussie Liahona.
Attempted to find this at 12:28:00 PM on 11Nov2020

Time to start heading for home after a lovely little getaway with DreamerSkye to this glorious part of the universe. Of course there was time for just a couple more caches Wink

Last one before the long drive home. DreamerSkye was getting sleepy so while she had a snooze I went off to find the cache. It didn’t take long, a poke here and there and the beasty was in hand. Some scribble left and the container replaced as it had been found.

Thanks for the cache Aussie Liahona Big Grin

On my way back to the office, I had time for one more cache - so this was going to be it. I'd got the other one on Saddle Rd a while ago, but this one hadn't been found yet. Found it hidden away nicely! Lovely drive along this road now that we've had some rain and the grass is growing again. Thanks Aussie!

Found during a road trip from Adelaide via Broken Hill, Cobar, Bourke, Walgett, Glen Innes, Tenterfield and Lismore and on to Brisbane. Thanks for the cache Aussie Liahona!

Mr Rusty85 got lucky today and got to go play a game of golf as I need a trad cache close by the course. Nice quick find and then I look up and a couple are walking their dog down the road, really people thought this would be maybe car place but certainly not a walking track. Oh well the trees got some full attention till I could replace the cache. TFTC Aussie Liahona I remember this road well and it was in much better repair back in them days.
 
29-Nov-19
Dad Rusty85 found this one with geomum but I think he was more looking around then looking for a cache, he just gets serious when she can't find them. TFTC

I am currently way behind on my online logging so my apologies for the lateness of this log as well as any duplication which may occur in my logs.

This little series of caches on this road were irresistible today as myself and KTB headed towards Brunswick heads for a swim. As it turned out it was a quite enjoyable little detour with several good viewpoints looking out over the area, as well as a multitude of very friendly bovines who were happy enough to come up and say hello whenever I stopped nearby.

All too soon we reached the end of saddle road and all that remained was this cache, which KTB found before I even had my phone out. I really appreciate all these different stles of cache container. My thanks to Aussie Liahona for placing these caches, showing me somewhere I'd not been, and also increasing my enjoyment today. Cheers!

We were out geocaching with our daughter and grandchildren on my birthday. We had to come back to this one after we found the next three in order to find it. We really believe that the size is more small than micro.

Stop and grabber but extremely hard to undo. TFTC

After family commitments I was given an hour to spare to look for some caches - first headed down a road I had used to visit regularly many years ago (one of my regular lawn mowing jobs was at a house on Saddle Road - I cursed a lawnmower many times here when it would not start) and then a bit further south on a road I had never been on. 7 out of 7 caches found (one I stopped but was far too busy to look or worry about a DNF) and so happy with my brief time spent here.
This was the first site visited and parked off the road and looked. GPS was all over the shop but based on the hint I thought I had a spot but no luck. Wandered a bit more and then looked more thoroughly at the first location and there it was. Log signed and headed to the end and worked my way back from there.

Found on the way back from lunch. Saw the new cache and would have gone for the rest nearby only it started bucketing down. Bit of a leap of faith with the retrieval. TFTC Aussie Liahona
