Nice hide. TNLN, T4TC.Cheers, Ric

Nice quick find, thanks for the hide. Bird names seem to be a common street name in the outback

Continuing on with my well earned 2 week break and after staying in Rochester, Hay, White Cliffs, Cunamulla, then Toompine for the night (after my very big detour due to lots of road closures) its time to head to Charleville via Quilpie.Some more caches that will break up the drive nicely and people often wonder why it takes me so long to get from A to B.The scenery never gets old for me around her and I love outback Queensland.Happy to not be towing the van as I can pull over anywhere I want.I have stayed in Quilpie before and there a few more caches here now.So a stop at the bakery and museum was called for then I was on my way.Lots of art to stop and look at as well.Not a bad set up the have here and I wander how often does it get used.At least the carpark was empty this morning.Thanks LLOYDYAu & Quilpie Information Centre TFTC.

Wow what a great cache LLOYDYAu and Quilpie Information Centre, and such fun to find. Buddy the geodog helped us with this one. Found on June 7, 2024. # 9304

Thanks for this one I went to boarding school and college with about 4 Peglers from here. All good with this one on a damp day in Quilpie

Had a wander around Quilpie with geocaching as our guide. Made a quick find here. TFTC

Woo hoo!!! Finally made it to my first ever QOGM, was so sad to have missed the earlier ones, but this one was great! Loved the musters and the creative activities. Sadly its now time to head back home. Taking a bit of a roundabout way to pick up a couple of extra counties; Barcoo, Quilpie and Bulloo that we missed on previous travels. So glad that we have made the trip it has been such an incredible adventure, full of amazing scenery and incredible wildlife! Great to be out travelling the countryside again with GLISS! Signed as G! NRC or our individual names. Thanks to everyone who has placed caches and enabled this wonderful adventure! It will certainly be one i will remember for many years. Thanks for the cache!

Found with Nibletricecakes on the drive from Quilpie to Cunnamulla via Thargominda. TFTC

Beautifully kept Racecourse. Quick find, but it is 9m out.

No horses today. Found 10m out.

Found on a sojourn all around on the way to QOGM 2023. A fun jaunt with lots of dust, mud and starry skies.

Thanks LLOYDYAu and clear skies from TeamAstro. ️ Cache the planet! Thanks for the fun with Tenkae.

32,674. Found during our Queensland Outback GeoMuster (QOGM) 2023 Longreach Adventure - a 33 day epic tour of Northern NSW and Outback Queensland finding many caches, attending great events and catching up with awesome Cachers along the way.Queensland Outback GeoMuster (QOGM) 2023 Longreach Adventure Day 9. Well the trip was well and truly underway. I have never been to a QOGM before, and since this was the last one I decided to head up there for the fun. Having basically cleaned out the Charleville region we are now heading to Quilpie for a few days. A new County for me Today we headed up to Adavale and Lake Dartmouth. This was the next find of the day. A quick find once at GZ. Signed the log, usually as F65 A33, replaced the cache as found, then we continued on our journey.Thanks LLOYDAu !!

QOGM 2023 Longreach Day 8. Quilpie Day 1. Driving from Charleville to Quilpie via Cooladdi. Fitzy_1965 and Albida33 are on our trip in early spring to Longreach. With no caching left to do in Charleville, we packed up and started west. With plenty of stops along the way, but the best was at Cooladdi where had a good look around and a late breakfast. On to Quilpie, where despite the rodeo and show being in town we were able to get a site at he caravan park. The afternoon was spent visiting the various caches around town, and even doing a bit of maintenance where required and possible.

With the show on we were unsure about this one, and we did have to visit a second time once we had sourced a replacement. I hope it is alright to have this cache continue for future finders as well.

Thanks for the cache LLOYDYAu

A trip to Perth checking out some of the awesome places along the way in ACT, NSW, outback Qld and NT. Grabbing some old caches and missing LGAs. TFTC.
A quick find once I extended my search.

Annual Rogers Clan road trip throughout wherever the map takes up. Initial plan was Beaudesert, Nindigully Pub, Charlotte Plains, Bourke, Lightning Ridge, Walget, Hebel, Dirrabandi, then home. Unfortunately Bourke flooded so we ended up going Beaudesert, Nindigully Pub, Charlotte Plains, Charleville, Quilpie, Thargomindah, Yowah, Cunnamulla, Nindigully Pub home.

We didn't grab every cache, instead targeted selected ones for a reason or just to break up the drive. Thanks to QOGM there's what feels like literally millions.

Nice easy find, replaced the log as the log was full with some fresh logs.

Cache logs are either stamped, signed with Rogersclan13 or just RC13 for space. Thanks for the cache **LLOYDYAu and Quilpie Information Centre**

Firstly I will appologise for the boiler plate log. This does not take away from all the effort that the QOGM placement team and other geocachers have taken to ensure that we have a fantastic QOGM.

This log covers from around the 20th September to the final day of QOGM the 2nd of October, 2022. We attended many events and found untold nuimbers of caches that included puzzles, multi's, Whereigo's and AL's. We made new friends and caught up with old friends, both locals and geocachers. The meals that we had at two of the events where out of this world, such that we cannot give them a star rating as we do not have enough stars. At the final event their was so many prizes, we feel that you whould have been very unlucky to leave this event without something. This year we were not able to team up with our usual cohorts and were invited to join another group who were fun, enthursatic and well organised. It was very different for us to not be the driver. We look forward to hopefully attending next years QOGM in Longreach. SL TFTC

Gotcha !!! Caching with Dandent at QOGM2022 TFTC

At QOGM 2022 with Temingi
Now that the festivities are over ...
And we are staying another night ...
But all the Charleville caches have now been found
Taking a drive out to Quilpie, the closest block of caches Temingi hasn't found.
Started the new lab on the way in
And finished that, before looking for this one
Just a quick stop ... signed and replaced
All good ... now to finish the run around town.
Thanks for the cache.

Enjoyed our small day trip to Quilpie and all of the caches along the way. Made a quick find.

A great but long day had out in the countryside driving to Cooladdi and then onto Quilpie, a place I had never been to before. Our group of three signed all logs as Team SIP (Snickersallan, Imbunda & patrol14)

Thanks LLOYDYAu and Quilpie Information Centre for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Teamed up again with Snickersallan and Imbunda for a drive to Cooladdi for the event and decided to head further west.
We have made it to Quilpie and we have stopped to grab this cache.
Made a quick find signed as team SIP.

During QOGM22 Team S.I.P. (Snickersallan, Imbunda and Patrol14) headed west to attend an Event at Coladdi then further afield to see what caches we could find.
Nicely found, log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC

Day 3 of my outback travels and the continuation of my Queensland Outback Geocaching Muster for 2022. As a continuation from last year’s event and a very successful team collaboration of Willis007, Jacs Team, Triple turmoil and myself; we continued with the team again for this year. We have worked hard in getting to a point where we can just jump in a car, go, and have fun for the day. There are lots of laughs and repetitive jokes seems to be the call for each day.

Today was a drive to Cooladdi for an event and then a drive to Windorah via Quilpie. Yep a 12 hour day of driving, collecting some LGA’s and a few caches along the way. We left the event and set off on our mission. Ticked off a few personal goals along the way; a couple of extra LGA’s, another couple of earth caches and a few extra caches in the haul. With time pushing we just made it back in time for the last dinner bell at the pub.

Thanks for the caches and the travels out here today.

Found as an early bird for QOGM - Charleville 2022. On the hunting trail again with SeasonedBird (aka Mrs Geo, Salty Chook, the Old Boiler, Old Chook, Dirty Bird, Angry Bird & occasionally even Love Bird). It’s a great day for caching.

Please excuse generic log. Extra information will be added where necessary.
Having battled against the Big Bash traffic yesterday, more fools us , we decided to have 2 nights out on The Lake. After a very lazy start to the day we headed to town so I could pick up all the caches here.
It turned out to be a very successful day as all caches were found and signed. Thanks to "all" the COS for giving us something to do on our "quiet" day.

A great trip over to Queensland.
Was able to put a few smileys on the map.
This was one of them.
Now catching up with logging them with five minutes on the computer.

What a surprise where this took us! It is a huge racecourse in such a small town!
c-pprass once again found it in the first spot that she looked in - which was a tricky spot actually!
Thanks LLOYDYAu.

Nice and easy.
Thanks

Travelling homeward bound to Busselton from the Townsville Mega, how lost can we get?
It’s been 2 months since the CacheQld mega and we are still in Queensland, that’s still a long way to go to get home to WA
But the fun bit is, finding all these geocaches along the way.
No matter where we park our caravan for the night, it’s always an exciting day to see this great country through the eyes of the local geocachers.
Thanks to all the COs for showing us your favourite spots along the way.

Really appreciate the effort put into this cache.* ????

A bit tricky but found it!

Found this while on holiday in Quilpie. Had walked there to get some exercise and then found we did not have a pencil so it is unsigned. A clever hide.

Found it. Bison hint confused us though!

Race crowds, once a year:
Colour, noise and spectacle.
The rest is echoes.

Quite an impressive facility here. Lovely mural on the building nearby. TFTC LLOYDYAu

Found quickly. Nice mural on the wall. Glad there were no races being held today. Might have tested my stealth skills.
TFTC

We finally made our way to Quilpie. After setting up for a few days in the caravan park, we went out and about to check out the town and surrounding areas. Of course, where there's a geocache or two, we'll grab some smilies too. TFTC

Found while traveling on my 'Quest to the Cape' trip from Adelaide to the northern tip of Australia on Cape York Peninsula. The plan was to tour along the Strzelecki Track to Innamincka, out to Noccundra and through Quilpie, Blackall, Barcaldine, Hughendon and Ravenshoe to Cairns, then out to Weipa and up to the top. I ended up staying at Quilpie overnight in a free camping area at the eastern end of town. Thanks for the cache LLOYDAu and Quilpie Information Centre!

Easy find at the showgrounds

Staying in Quilpie at the Lake I noticed there were some new caches that had popped up since I was last here. This was one of them. I found this little chap quickly and easily.

What an interesting place. I was scratching around with no luck. Looked back to the car and there is was. Wow, it's difficult to rescrew a bison with phone pens etc in one hand. Got it in the end. Tftc

Out Quilpie for work and decided it was time for some site seeing and why not some caching as well while out in this gorgeous part of the world. So day trip it was. So many Great little caches in the area.

Day 5 of of a Queensland road trip with EatSleepCacheRepeat and JACS Team - Big day of driving today - Charleville to Cunnamulla via Quilpie and Targmomindah. Just collecting any cache that got in our way.

Some good art on the toilet block. TFTC!

This cache was on the list for us to collect while passing through on Day 5 of our geotrip to outback QLD. Some great art on the loos here. And I was surprised by this track hidden in the middle of this town! So weird TFTC

Gorgeous place here, just hidden away at the back. We also found the cache here.

We enjoyed the variety of caching. Good hides and a little challenging. Our thanks to LLOYDYAu for placing this cache and enhancing our enjoyment of the area.
