Blind Creek Bridge Victoria, Australia
By Jamin Appleford on 11-Nov-21. Waypoint GC9JAC3

After attending the Event in Albury I thought I would take advantage of the glorious late winter weather and collect a few caches around Rutherglen.I had enough time to head a bit further south and collect a few more (wanted to stop a TB in a themed cache as well). Saved the multi gif next visit and parked near the pub (all quiet today) and headed to GZ. Felt all around the cache and eventually spotted from the other side. Log all fine at the momentTFTC Jamin Appleford

A wet and miserable winter's day, and a certain PE teacher getting bored on school holidays, so let's attempt some park and grabs out Wang way today...Never been to this township before, very muggly quiet here today, cool bridge, TFTC Jamin

thanks

So nice to be out enjoying the great winter weather. A friendly young lad appeared from behind the fence to check if we found the cache. He seemed a bit fascinated by the hide. Very quaint little township.Thanks Jamin Appleford for the cache.

Heading towards Rutherglen to take advantage of the B&B accommodation we won at the Mega back in Easter last year , we detoured up Boorhaman Rd to complete the few multis along the way with a few added trads as a bonus. We found this cache on inspection of the faulty bridge.Thanks Jamin Appleford for the placement.

Just collecting some caches on this beautiful summers daynot too warm. Great spot for a cache. The hotel aint open, which is a shame, looks like a great place to have a quiet ale. TFTC Jamin Appleford

Suscoe had arrived in Wangaratta this afternoon and we decided to head out with our good friends Phetlern to find a few caches.It was a warm afternoon.We enjoyed finding a variety of caches along the roads to the north west of Wangaratta. A quick find here.Thanks to Jamin Appleford for this hide.

Having lived in Wangaratta many years back, it is always great to return for a caching adventure with fellow Victorians Suscoe. You may need to hang on when coming from the brewery!**FEEDBACK TO CO:** Suscoe replaced the sodden log with a very temporary emergency log.Thanks to Jamin Appleford for hiding caches with interesting history. 36126

Thank you so much only took a few minutes and paper is damp

Found it

Wife and I were just finishing lunch in Rutherglen when a nearby cachemas cache was published. The decision was made that we had enough time to go for it before school pickup. Afterwards, I had another attempt at this one (DNF from a while ago). Once I was on the right side, it was a quick find. Need to come back one day to visit the Brewery.

TFTC!

#20912. A beautiful autumn day and we needed to head to town for a few things so decided to collect some caches whilst we were out and about.

On arrival here was rather worried that we would not find the cache but after quite a search I was extremely pleased to locate the container. I had already checked similar spots on the opposite side. A nice safe hide here, more than we can say for the safely of the bridge itself.

Thanks Jamin Appleford

We needed a few things in Wang, so we decided to detour via Detour Road and grab a few caches.
BettyBoo3747 the geodoggies and I checked out the new sculpture trail. Great to see artworks like this.

I think walking around the bridge is probably safer than on the bridge!
BB found it in a place that I had already looked (but obviously not well enough!).
Thanks, Robmc.

Didn't try too hard here as I felt very much in the public eye.

Cache container has been replaced today.

Hi there Jamin Appleford,

This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.

You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.

Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so the cache is being temporarily disable - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)

**You do need to respond to this enquiry in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**

#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache to check, repair, replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.

- **Place A Write Note Log:-** Reviewers are not mind readers (more's the pity), so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, you have been in hospital, the area is in flood, or some other reason that has prevented attending to the cache, they can't tell what is going on.
You need to post a note to the page (within 14 days) explaining the situation and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
Be sure to indicate **the actual date that you expect to have it fixed** so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please **post a Write Note log every 4 to 6 weeks,** so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another Geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it,**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.

Honestly, it's better for you to decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Bunjil

Unfortunately we had no luck at this one after a fairly decent search. Another time maybe.

Did not find was hidden on a house block of land and there was no clue left to help us

Out geocaching around Peechelba. Never been to Boorhaman despite living not to far away. Will have to come back to check out brewery.

No luck finding this one, next time.

Not found despite intensive search, aided? by local kids

Sorry could not find it

Out with Geowife and Geodog exploring the area, what a beautiful day. Now onto the next one for the day. TFTC

Still out with geohusband and geodog. TFTC

Could be there but could not find

TFTC what a great day for a few caches

Took the road less travelled after our trip to Yarrawonga to see the empty Lake. SL at 12.25pm A lot sunnier here than in Yarrawonga, but the locals were either inside or out and about somewhere else! #8850 TFTC Jamin

Found with carkisser
Parked near by soon had cache in hand.

A quick stop after dinner next door. JSando was ready to give up as the mozzies carried him away. I made the find with them buzzing in my ears. TFTC

“I said I didn’t want to go out after work tonight,” B from Beavar said. “But there’s a new traditional cache that doesn’t look too hard and we don’t have to beat Jamin to it because he put it out,” Renee replied. “Alright then I guess…” Woo hoo! A first to find for us tonight!
