Thanks weirdobiker for this cache. Found quickly because of previous finders photo. Now have the Wodonga LGA!

Found in good condition.

Got to love magnets

DNF

Had to do a few things in Wodonga so figured we would add a few smiles to our map. Thanks weirdobiker for placing and maintaining the cache for our enjoyment.

Great work

dnf

Super cool. One of my favs. Gotta have good eyes for this one.

I found it

Trick one

The CO stopped by just as I was searching, so this was never going to be a DNF today A new container for me and a fun chat! Thanks!

Hi

Fourth times the charm

Cool hide found it

Thanks!!!

Out for a run tonight, stopped by, found the cache before it got dark and ran the rest of the way home. Yay...it will be getting lighter from tomorrow onwards and got my Winter solstice souvenir too. TFTC

This was a hide that certainly had me looking. I looked on top, I looked below, I walked the bridge from end to end more than a couple times both on top and below( as it had no water on the day of searching), I looked from corner to corner.I feel like I had looked everywhere more than twice at least. AND in the end the hide had been right where I had looked more than a few times lol.If I could give this more than one fav point I would but as we know just the one is possible.Great work to the Cache Owner weirdobiker for the placement and maintenance of this cache. Get hide container and hiden well

.

Wasnt expecting that nice

Nice dont trip on blackberry bushes

Cant find it

Silvering sobering sukatouche - note to self - I'm thinking less grovelling could have been in order had the CO not been watching in amusement. A certain relief and glee accompanied the find when it was finally FELT. TFTC and the FUN FUN FUN. A FAVE for a good first cache for weirdobiker.!

The first day of my latest adventure, heading to Canberra for the MEGA, first stop Wodonga, and being hosted by the delightful CO.It was an honour to find this cache and remove the latest DNF from it.A favourite point from me for a clever hide, safely accessible.

DNF

Cant find it dont know if its still there.

Wow, what a sneaky hide!After spending time looking for standard caches (Tupperware, nanos, etc) I spotted a peculiar object, but recognised the objects possibility, since I had found cache containers like this before.

Found

It was a tricky one but I am the president I know where everything is

Dont wear white!!! Watch out for blackberries!!

No idea looked high and low couldnt find anything

Finally found a cache without looking through the comments for hints! Ms M located an anomaly and Mr A had the guts to inspect further. Cache is such a great design!

Searched hard, even after trawling the log for clues we still couldnt locate it..Will try again another time!

Found it with my partner Fryzy. First one for him. Definitely a hard one

Found it in the second find very sneaky hide love it

️

I checked on this cache today and it is still in the correct position and plenty of room still available on the log sheet.

Searched and searched, couldn’t find it anywhere

Nice hide!

This is so weird I looked for 30 mins and found nothing. The geocache is labelled as 'other' so it certainly makes it harder to find

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location.
(HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do.

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

Devilish

Brilliant and Clever

I like it

Another one off the list

Searched but couldn’t find it

So glad I found it this time, it was just getting dark and I thought my second search was for nought, and then, yes! A great hide.

Second time looking for this one and glad to say I found it! Very clever hide!

First geocache in years, pretty cool one to start off with, didn’t take too long to find but was well hidden!

Nice hide

Find Number 2554 found at 13:10. Today we found 2 caches. We had 0 DNF's. This was the 2nd find of the day.

We came to Wodonga to spend Christmas with geoDaughter EmnTodd and her family. Today we popped out to find two nearby caches.

This turned out to be easier than we suspected. Just as we started searching , EmnTodd got a phone call and, while she was occupied, I wandered off and looked back at her. There was something odd - the cache.

The cache was in good condition. We took nothing, left nothing, signed the log and replaced the container as found

Thanks weirdobiker for the cache.

Dad and I decided to do a quick caching trip to pick up a couple of local hides....we were able to park close by and begin the search. I had warned Dad that according to the logs, this would be a hard one to find. While I got distracted by a phone-call from the other half, Dad got creative with his searching skills and very quickly had the hide in hand! Nice one!
Cache and log are in good order, Log signed and returned as we found it.
Thanks for a clever hide

Now I don’t mind admitting here, we spent a hell of a long time looking for…
“Nice easy find”
“Something not quite right”
“Sitting out in the open”
“Found within minutes”
And we were just about to call it a DNF when the Queen found….
“An easy find that was right in front of our faces”…..
We now have very intimate knowledge of that bridge to the point of we feel compelled to take it out for dinner.

Unable to locate on fired attempt

We failed dismally on our first look for this one, so we are back again today to try again. Ah, sweet success this time by looking in a slightly different spot to our first endeavours. SL at 11.20am #9325 TFTC weirdobiker - sneaky and well camouflaged !

Second attempt, but OA in both knees has put a hold on this one again.

No luck today with limited time to look, will be back!

Found it just before giving up

Very clever hide

I have no clue where it is

Pretty well hidden. 2nd time looking for this one.
Once got to down to eye level. It was in plain sight. Good Luck

2nd time looking for this one. Pretty Well Hidden. Found with MadixAmbler. Good Luck

Took a little bit of a search at gz but eventually came up with the well tucked away hide. Very difficult to spot but managed by touch. Thanks for the cache weirdobiker.

Tried at night couldn't find

Back home for a week and had some free time while in town. Nice easy find after looking around for a couple of mins, done these geocaches heaps of times so we knew what we were in for when we arrived at the GZ. TFTC

Super hard to find the geo but we got it in the end.

So tricky blends very well. Better have wide eyes cause it might take you half an hour!!

No need to go under.

After a bit of looking on hands and knees and some tactical use of a camera found it just as we were about to give up, very well hidden

Ok

Way harder then we expected but found it eventually

Harder then we thought

Great one of the more sneaky hides. Don’t give up. Lots of thorns.

Nice hide

Have been eyeing this off for a while but with a few more caches published in Wodonga (for a rainy day) today was the day to collect it. Wandered over after work and parked nearby. Plenty of options here but had pretty quickly - a favourite as I like this type of hide (lots in Canberra).
TFTC weirdobiker

Really hard find! Very interesting! Don’t give up!

Great sneaky hide. Love it

Did not see it

Had a lot around, but couldn’t find it. Only Thorn bush to the hands and knees. Will have to come back and look again

Well we tried our darn hardest but could not find it

.

....

Nice little hide. Tftc!

Very interesting, wasn’t what I thought it was the best disguised one I have found so far!

Took 3 of us searching on our hands and knees, about to give up and Jackez74 yells "found it"
Signed the log as Geo Trio, found with Jackez74 and Bucrog52 TFTC

A beautiful sunny day to go and search for a geocache near home. Matho64, Bucrog52 and I put in a great effort searching high and low trying to avoid the thorns.
I decided to have a closer look at something that didn’t look quite right. Bingo! I found it!
Signed the log as Geo Trio. TFTC

Found the sneaky hide with jackez74 and matho64 took a while before jackez74 cried out found it. TFTC signed as GeoTrio.

Looked around for a while, will have to come back and try and find

Looked around for a while and couldn't find will have to come back

A super busy day at work i knew i was going to struggle to make anytime for caching, I needed a quick easy find for the 22/02/2022 souvenir!

This one was perfect. Quick find once at gz. Tftc! And congrats on first cache placement!

Out and about after work with Mrs Wackyweedo grabbing some points for the Reach the Peak souvenir and this was one on our list.
No one using the path at this time of the afternoon and after a few sweeps of the obvious spots something we wouldn’t expect to find here was spotted. Blends in well and should last here. Many thanks for the cache.

Headed out to grab a few local caches with Mrs Haveanez after work. Stopped in for this one on our way past. Looked everywhere it wasn't first, then something caught my eye! . Nice hide. Not what we were looking for... Tftc

First cache for the day on our way to Wangaratta.
Wasnt in the first place we looked but wasnt long before we had our hands on it.
Congrats on your first cache placement weirdobiker

Found it. This was the second time looking for this cache took a little while but found it in the end.

Tftc great spot
Out for the day in Wangaratta with Stephenson5 and done_wright.
Have had a great day exploring and discovering areas we didn't know about.

Found with PapaGrouch. After an appointment in Wodonga and grabbing some dinner we decided to look for just one cache before heading home. This was it. It took far longer than it should have, just couldn't spot it, and had to stop looking regularly as muggles out walking their dogs frequented the track. We were just on the point of giving up when PapaGrouch spotted it. Signed and replaced and then we could head for home. I was quite intrigued with the area at GZ, a bridge over a creek is fine, but a path dead-ending at someone's side fence was most peculiar. TFTC

Found this one with SciFiRulz, TFTC

2.40pm. Saw this come out so decided to down tool and we headed out to try for a FTF. Arrived at site to see the remnants of recent flood waters.
Took a few minutes of searching before the container was found, still with an empty log sheet. It should have been easier, except we where looking for a different container.
Well done on your first hide Weirdobiker. I look forward to seeing more in the future.
