Well yes I am very fond of sand dunes and salty air so definitely had to stop and get this cache. Really loved Potato Point, definitely worth the detour as we make our way south. Every spot we call into has been fabulous for whale watching and we spend about 2 hours on a headland here watching heaps of whales in the bay. Perfect! The cache was pretty perfect too so Ill be adding to the fav points. Took a TB and left a TB. Thanks pawsforeffort.

What a cool cache.Heading to the coast for the 20th Anniversary event for the 1st Earthcache in the world at South Durras. Adventuring on the way.Thanks for getting me out and about pawsforeffect
 
13-Jan-24
A cache trip to the coast for the 20th anniversary of the worlds first Earthcache in South Durras and as part of an Canberran invasion with a number of CBR cachers staying Moruya till Sunday. Saturday was organized around the celebration event. But with ample of time we first headed a fair way south all the way to Narooma and slowly made our way back up north to the event in a large group of two full cars. Stopping at caches that at least some of us still needed. This cache: a very cool cache, well constructed or used as a cache hide. Works well on this end of the road spot too. Thank you pawsforeffect for putting the cache out and maintaining it.

Find #: 3,402Companions: GeodaughterMuggles: NoneWeather: Pleasant summer morningCache condition: GoodMy daughter and I decided to drive up to Potato Point to explore and give her some Ls-time. We first visited the lookout (too many trees blocking the view!) before heading down to this cache. I quickly spotted the camo - nicely done! Dropped TB, took nothing, signed log, then headed to the main beach as the closest one was a bit too rough. TFTC

This trip is the...
RUTHERGLEN MEGA TRIP
2023

Off to party with the Victorians over Easter and giving the new wheels a bit of a test run as a geocaching adventure mobile.

Wandering down there stopping for oldies, challenges, LGAs, points etc.

This cache-
️which challenge/why?
️LGA Challenges
️Random pick
️large size

A few days behind schedule so it's only a few quick stops now and then cut across to the Hume highway.

Well that was a slow crawl to get here! Bad timing again.(Good Friday)
Worth the detour in, very clever hide, caches like this make the game fun.
Leaving it a favourite point.
Happy Easter

09-Oct-22
Homebound after spending a week fishing Tangtangra for trout then Bermagui for flathead. Not a lot of fish caught on this trip due to bad weather, made a lot more time for caching. Heading home via Batemans bay then onto the Kings Hwy to end up on the Hume, hoping the flooding doesn't affect to much of my route. Lots of caches targeted along the way.

Detoured off the highway to collect this cache, first time visiting Potato Point, interesting name! Was a bit confused when approaching GZ as it was private property. Quick read of the cache page confirmed I was all good. A clever hide, picked up TB.

Tftc!

A bad day at the beach is better than a good day at home ... isn't that how it goes??? On a rainy, blustery day ... after a enjoying an ice cream at the Bodella Dairy Shed and finding a nearby cache ... I made my way in search of this one. I was a little self-concious of going onto private property ... but soon forgot about that once I was signing the logbook. No shadows were cast today. TFTC. Smile
 
Such an awesome way to hid a cache! So excited to find it and then explore the beach. TFTC

With ACT residents no being able to travel to an area around the capital including the coast, it was time to plan a trip. There was a good sized group where we were going to base in Moruya for three days. I traveled with Sol de Lune and Smitten Granny. Others were Cosmonaut97, Kitty Katch, Joolay, Barb2e, fitzy_1965 & MinnieK. Most logs were signed Kapital Krunchers. We had a great weekend of lots of caching in fantastic weather. The Third day left me traveling only with Smitten Granny so no longer signing KK. We first went to Narooma, then North to Potato point and Tuross Heads then home late in the afternoon.

There was only one cache in Potato point, but the size large drew us in. A great way to use an item like this, but I was not sure which way to point it on return.

Thanks for the cache pawsforeffect

Day 3 of our trip down the coast with the Capital Crunchers but the group was splitting up to go their own ways today. Albida and I were the last to leave our incredible accommodation and after heading to Narooma we are finally going towards home. OK we were sidetracked for a while in towards this cache. What a great one. The log now carries my name. TFTC pawsforeffect (Love your name!)

Tankengine, Youban and I decided to pick up a few caches that we had outstanding before heading back to Canberra.

Such a nice day for driving around and picking up caches.

This cache: Well that was pretty awesome! Nice work and effort put into this one. Well quite a lot of effort really.

We waited for a group of guys to leave the carpark before wandering over and signing the log book and took a couple of photos before heading off again. Tftc pawsforeffect!!!

This cache is GREAT!! You have really outdone yourself. Great to have a large in a obvious spot that isn't hidden under millions of sticks which takes you YEARS to replace. Great job and beautiful spot. The log is a wee bit damp but defs still writable. If you are local here there is a cool troll bridge near. Maybe do a hide on that one! Wink

TFTC Pawsforeffect!! Fav for the great cache!!!

Found on our way to Tuross Heads to visit family before heading home to Canberra. We had found the original cache years ago: good to be back! A lovely bush drive from the highway into Potato Point and at GZ, we had a very quick find. An incredible hide that was awesome to uncover. And the views from the beach path nearby were beautiful! Took PT. TFTC pawsforeffect!
