We where wandering down to Nowra to spend the weekend with my sister. Quick stop and cache to break up the driving. Great hide, I was wondering what the numbers where, now I know.Thanks RiverRuners
Had to use a tool I found at GZ and then needed to jump. Lucky throw to put it back. TFTC

1072 for the tribeThe tribes epic adventure continued with this quick park and grab here. The cache and logbook are in great condition with plenty of room in the log. Thanks for placing and maintaining this geocache which has taught us some new things today. Must have taken a huge amount of time money and effort to place this pipeline. Wow.
Poor reception, but cache name helped in locating. Found a piece on nature to assist in reaching, thanks.
A trip to check out some of the awesome places in NSW and grab some old caches. TFTC.
Took a bit of a jump to get that one.

A quick stop and a quick find, the minimal shelter the structure provided was useful in the rain. Thanks RiverRuners for the cache
What a fabulous drive across from Goulburn to Nowra. Made a quick find at the obvious structure.

My first solo find, hinges in the name which is lucky because there’s no Internet up here
All very interesting, I had spotting the signs to mark the line but this was new and wouldn't have known. No surprises when it comes to 'average' I had no hope... but luckily others with me had more luck to get the cache! Thanks for the cache!
Was able to finish work early today and drove all the way to Braidwood for a full program tomorrow. As I was early daylight allowed me to do some caching on the way and in town itself. Should save some time tomorrow.

Thanks River Runners for the cache and the info on the markers. I have seen the markers along the Picton Road and often wondered what the were for.
Had no idea about the numbers but thanks for telling what these are for. On route from Hyams Beach to Queanbeyan. Stopped along the way to grab some GCs to break up the journey.

A days caching from Canberra to Nowra and back. Cache easily found although a bit of a stretch to reach. TFTC.

Another cache that I have driven by 100s of times. Finally jumped out and made the quick dash to retrieve. Wouldn't want to be too short for this one. Thanks for the hide!
Quick pull over and park as could barely read the number sign. Easy find although then a bit difficult to get too. Have started driving this road more lately so will look for more caches. TFTC.
Thanks for the cache!! I think we found an old cache, discarded in the bushes so we picked it up, a little bit burnt from the fires!!
I travelled to the Shoalhaven Coast for a week’s R&R before COVID bites again and took the opportunity to search out some geocaches while I was away. This one was a reasonably straightforward find, being in an obvious position within a metre of the coordinates. I did have to shimmy up the post! Thank you RiverRuners for installing and maintaining this cache.
A long weekend trip up to Jervis Bay, our first trip since the beginning of these covid times.
From Canberra we took the Nerriga Rd and cleaned up a few of the new caches along that had been planted. In Jervis bay I was a little shocked at how long it took to drive around from one side to the other.... so much roadworks, so many crappy 'right turns' where you had to queue for 15 minutes.... not sure how the locals put up with it. However, its such a beautiful place and we will definitely be coming back.
This was a new one, in the obvious spot!

**This Cache:**
This cache literally defied the impossible and survived the bushfires! If you had of hidden it in 99 / 100 other spots close by, it would of been toast. But because of the location you picked this is the only spot that wasn't burnt! The fire looks like it ripped through here pretty bad, its a wasteland. Interesting scenery to find this cache though...
Thanks!

**Today:**
Went for a drive along country roads grabbing a few caches along the way, managed to pick up 18 finds for the day
Started in Canberra and headed through Bungendore - Tarago - Oallen - Nerriga - Tianjara and finished up with lunch in Nowra. Didn't have time for much more though, so only a single find in Nowra before heading a different way home via Kangaroo Valley and the Southern Highlands! About 8.5 hours all up, most of which was driving so only time for the caches I did along the way!
Thanks to all the CO's

Collected a handful of caches between Nowra and Goulburn. It was nice to spend time outdoors despite the light showers throughout the day. Thanks to all Cache Owners for the contributions to this recreational activity.
Nothing found. Apart from the sign, everything is burnt (checked over the sign as well!)
Checked GZ both on the way down to Jervis Bay and on the way back. Previous finder also advised where it was last found. Cache definitely no longer there.
I had noticed this cache on the way down to the Coast but we were wanting to fast track the trip
So did not stop. On the return leg I was driving and quickly pulled over for a quick find with the burnt out trees nearby. Tftc and the explanation of these signs.

Helping with some local maintenance, happened to pass this one where BF mentioned he’d been tangled in brambles while ticking of his smiley a few months back. Following the devasting fires in the area since, I avoided the same issue, though was grateful for his height assistance today.
Lots of Braidwood traffic along this road which is rather unusual for the middle of the week. TFTC & Kutgw
We headed to Corang this morning, bright an early and stopped to pick this one on our way. The flowers are pretty here at the moment. TFTC
Stopped here and made this find on my way home from a day hike out at Corang Arch.
Once a wise ol' fool told me these were elevation markers for when there's snow,I now know the truth!
At GZ I also picked up the boomarang.
Thanks RiverRuners for the cache

Found this with the geokids on our way to the coast. Quick easy find. Very interesting, they loved it! TFTC.
