This tribute to the dragon drummers of Mt Beauty has been subject to repeated muggle activity - likely young locals. Time to archive. ??
Thanks to brucemarg the cache is good to go. It should not be getting wet at GZ if replaced in its location. On my watch list!
Now: Additional container water proofed container with log and another TB dropped.
Then: Container half sticking out in open. T**ipped water out no log left TB NMDRJP for travelling. If I have a spare log book and a second container for inside original I will assist this week if okay by CO. Cheers.

We had to tip the water out before signing the log so I'm not sure how long it will be usable so perhaps a new waterproof container, good spot for a cache though.
Good place for a cache but had to tip the water out of the container first but managed to sign the log.

Day Trip: Home-Yea-Benalla-Myrtleford-Bright-MtBeauty-Whitfield-Mansfield-Home.
After parking nearby Mrs B and I decided to walk around the lake to get some exercise and enjoy what was left of the lovely, sunny day before embarking on the long trip towards home. Obviously we hoped to grab a few caches along the way and this being so close to the car was an obvious starting point. Unfortunately water had managed to get into the container so the log book was dam but Mrs B was able to scribble our name onto a page.

Catching up with some very late logs. This was found while away over night with friends.
This was a fun but easy enough find at GZ. Enjoyed the hide.

So nice to find this one. I’m a dragon boater!! Paddle this lake every Sunday morning, some Friday nights too except in winter. Brr.

We found this nifty cache at 12:30pm and again bereft of swag could only sign the log. Interesting to hear you've a dragon boat here, we've seen the Ballarat one in action. Thanks very much for the cache.
TFTC. Day 11 of our enforced layover in Albury as the Motorhome gets repairs. Looks like we will be here for another week.
We are making the most of our opportunities. Today there was an event in Mount BeUty, hosted by good friend Smittengranny. After the event we spent some time exploring via various geocaches around own. After a bite to eat we headed back to camp in Albury.

Found with PapaGrouch on a trip to Mt Beauty. Quickly spotted this one, signed log and replaced. No Dragon boats today. TFTC
This was the main cache I was after today for my challenge.
Wow Mt Beauty caters for every type of cyclist. From the really daring, extremely fit people who participate in the Peaks Challenge, the MTB daredevils, the BMX riders to the social casual older folk and the rip roaring youngsters who love tearing around the paths mostly on one wheel.
I guess with my nom de plume, you can guess which group I belong to, and today I targeted just one cache along a route to ensure that I completed my personal calendar challenge. As usual I couldn't go past one that was begging to be found on this beautiful sunny morning. So instead of one cache I managed to find and sign four logs which were all found to be in good condition. Thanks Ronice88 a good quick find.

Found while in the area with the kids and Trillian, a good little spot for a cache.
Nice walk on the way for a drink. Found from hint not navigation. Good hide. Thanks for the cache
It’s MEGA Road Trip time!! A plan is hatched and we are good to go.
DAY SIX: Harrietville to Albury, via Mt Beauty & Tallangatta.
Very modern library!
Thanks for bringing us here today by placing this cache, Ronice88

Day #6 of the MEGA road trip. It was time to pack up our campsite at Smoko and head further north. We set off to complete a tour of some of the Towong LGA on our way into NSW.
Found the cache out in the open with the lid off. Signed the log and tucked it back into its home.
Thanks Ronice88 for placing this gamepiece in the wild for us to find.

While family was using the nearby facilities I came over here and found this cache. Log was a touch damp, but okay to sign.

After a damp day yesterday, this morning was dry but very windy.
We did a bit of walking around town, often crossing over our tracks with multi's.
No dragon boats out on the water today, with or without drummers!
A good sized cache for this location.
Thanks, Robmc.

#18069. A day to spend in Mount Beauty and man was it windy. Thought our little dogs might blow away several times. However the weather hasn't put off the tourists as the caravan park is pretty full now for the weekend. Only managed 8 finds for the day and a DNF but that was enough.
After the nice walk to Many Bridges this morning we ventured out in the chariot after lunch to gather up the others. We were a little worried as to where the hide might be but after seeing the attribute 24/7 I realised it was not within the building. I wandered further and soon spied the edge of the cache. For such a large container it is mightily empty. I popped the log back in its plastic bag so all should remain in good order. I think Beechworth is also starting to be involved with Dragon Boat racing but I haven't seen them in action.
Thanks Ronice88

As a member of TeamOZCAT logged in this cache, I am now logging as an individual predominantly to avoid any mistaken/unnecessary revisitation.
Under groundspeak guidelines, this logging is acceptable as I was indeed at Cache GZ in person in recent times. However, all cache owners have the right to delete logs as they see fit. Usually done to "Armchair loggers" or inappropriate texting.
If any cache Owner/s have questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact.
TeamOZCAT logged finds when both Karen and Reg logged as individuals. This logging is exactly the same, only in reverse. Again, groundspeak acceptable.
For an unspecified period of time TeamOZCAT are no longer cache searching but remain active in our cache management and maintenance.
I sincerely thank all CO's and wish you all the best in your endeavours. Cheers Karen

I thought I spotted it, but came back 45 mins later due to a muggle. I was thinking he was a cacher as he had his phone out and was standing still close to GZ but I saw no other log from today after I came back and it was already dark! TFTC!
Beautiful town, TFTC

Returning from a great ride up to Eskdale Gap and picked up a few caches while rolling back to Alpenhorn.
Mt Beauty is a great spot.

We've arrived in Mt Beauty today, set up our caravan, and now we're out for a drive to see the sights and grab a few caches. Dragon boating looks like a lot of fun!

Heading back home after a full morning geocaching, remembered this one and, in the blink of an eye, we had it in hand. Geokids enjoyed a quick drum while I signed the log. Another great cache, Ronice88. Thanks!

A lovely walk/drive around this cool lake in a lovely little town. I haven't been here for a very long time - pre caching in fact! Nice cache with a nicer view. Thanks for the cache Ronice88.
