Certainly lots of room but you better add emus to that too, as many as the roos if not more!!

The cache was poking out the back/top/not the root end of the hide.. might have been an echidna or something taking up residence. We placed it back well out of sight. Another nice hide thanks Duntulum.

A very appropriately named cache!!There were so many here that we were amazed.We have problems with wallabies eating the grass that is meant to be for our cows at home - I can't imagine what it would be like to try and run stock anywhere around here.What was interesting was the number of kangaroos we saw in and around Halls Gap and Dunkeld but on the way up in to the Grampians there was a sign that said kangaroos for the next 40kms and during that whole stretch we only saw one on the side of the road. Seems they have all moved into town where the grass is probably sweeter and greener. Mr Beetle thinks that they probably carry mobile phones in their pouches now!!Thanks Duntulum.

Plenty of smily faces being found today on our trek to 300 caches. Mr9 is making light work of spotting these.

We are currently on a eight week holiday which is mostly spent in New Zealand and Australia. However, the first three days were spent in Singapore as a nice break from an otherwise long flight. Yesterday we drove from Port Fairy to Halls Gap where we will be staying for two nights. For today we have a nice hike to Sundial Peak, the Pinnacle, Venus Baths, the Botanic Gardens and from there back to our cabin. To add to the fun there is a cache every now and then. We had a short break here watching the kangaroos and emus while logging the cache which was found swiftly and smoothly. Thank you very much for this cache.

A trip to The Grampians was the first activity on our son's agenda when he & his partner returned to Australia for a visit after 7 years in the UK.
Today was the day, together we made our way via a cache dotted route to Halls Gap. We couldn't resist a couple more finds after booking in at our accommodation, at least 50 roos and a dozen emus were enjoying the peace of the evening.

Thanks to Duntulum for placing caches highlighting native animals.

Today is the first day of our Victorian getaway. We are heading to Ballarat to get a new roof on our motor home so have taken a weeks holiday and will visit a few places about the state whilst we are at it. Apart from a long drive from Naracoorte to Adelaide via Horsham Christmas 2020 this is our first time in Victoria since before Covid. We did plan a similar trip last year but was cancelled due to second wave lockdowns.
So it’s good to be back! I stopped for a few caches on the way to Halls Gap our first overnight stop and this was one of them.
Nice quick find here TFTC Duntulum

I had headed out to do some caching this afternoon to put a few extra smiles on the map before leaving the Grampians and heading home. I wandered along the track and it felt like it was thinking about pouring down. Thankfully the rains held off until I was home. It was a lovely walk along here - lots of roos and emus in the field this afternoon. A quick find at GZ. TFTC Duntulum

Find No. 3617. Found at 2.45pm.

A trip to Halls Gap so we could ride our bicycles up Mount William to the car park. A total of 10ks all up some very steep hills. FUF009 came with us for support along with Geodog Penny.
After our ride up Mount William and back down we then rode back to Bellfield. We had a picnic lunch nearby in a nice quiet spot opposite the caravan park. With plenty of time to spare we then thought we would find a few close by caches that we haven't got.

This is our third one along here to get before heading for home. Walking along the track we seen kangaroos and emus but no deer today. An easy find as there was only one hollow log around the area. Now it's off to do our last one for the day in Halls Gap.

TFTC Duntulum.

No deer today but plenty of Emu and "Grass hoppers" Smile

Traveling between Ballarat and Halls Gap today. Checked into the caravan park at Halls Gap then unloaded the deadly treadly for caches around Halls Gap.
A lovely day for drive and ride.

Out and about with the fam on a sunny holiday afternoon wander along the trail. We were looking for Koalas and Echidnas but only found Kangaroos and plenty of them! Yep - plenty of Roos here! Most of them were relaxing in the shade, taking it easy as the cooler weather rolls in for the evening. Thanks for the cache Duntulum.

This is the second time the Donutholes family has escaped the hustle and bustle of Geelong and set ourselves up in Halls Gap. We just sat back, chillaxed and just enjoyed quality time together. I like to visit Halls Gap because of the geocaching, bush walks and fresh air, my wife likes to visit Halls Gap to let her hair down and chill and my children like to visit Halls Gap because of the ice cream and the zoo.

Kids have gone to bed for the night so i ducked out to collect a few smiley faces. This was a quick park and grab.

Thanks for the cache.

The regional lockdown zone restrictions are over and the super storm has passed, ready for a Cup long weekend in the Grampians. Woohoo finally free to camp and cache!

This spot is incredible to view the plethora of kangaroos and emus and each day of the weekend I have stopped here to watch the graceful animals enjoying the field.

This is my 2000th cache find and thank you for the magnificent location to celebrate it at.

Too pleasant an evening to sit in the van so off for a walk and I see another cache just up the track. As i approach I see where the cache gets its name, must be a hundred or more kangaroos in the paddock! I get a bit closer and a small crowd has stopped to admire them as well. Luckily the cache hide was a bit of a walk away from them so i could find and sign in relative solitude. Thx Duntulum for showing us what is obviously a local highlight!

Plenty of Roos and about 10 emus. Co-ords. Just what we like about geocaching - discovering local nooks not always off the main drag. Lucky us to be free enough to travel far from the NE after what seems donkeys years. After a day hiking, zoomed out on the bike to pick up a few caches this evening. How we love the Gramps! TFTC and the FUN
