#22678. Found en route to the Mt Panorama circuit. Quick P+G. TFTC.

Good to find another puzzle (have many solved in the area, so wonder how many we will get around to finding). TFTC.

Easy one to start the morning. So obviously I nearly completely disconnected it . TFTC.

Thanks for puzzle
Quick find

Quick park and grab. Thanks for puzzles and cache.

Yesterday we started our trip towards Rutherglen. Our 1st night was at Mudgee & we are now camped at Bathurst.
There were so many new caches here, lomost being jigsaw puzzles which I spent many hours completing them.
Today was the day to go out & find them. It's not a trip to Bathurst without doing a lap of Mt. Panorama, loved all the caches with the conection to the big race. We found all but cache that we looked for today.
Thankyou to all the CO's for placing these caches.

A quick park and grab. TNLN TFTC

Reperio 19:28

My youngest and I had the opportunity to head over to Bathurst, and of course no trip to Bathurst is complete without a lap around Mount Panorama. Just before doing our lap however, we stopped off at this one to see what we could find. Looked in the most likely spot…and voila!

Gratias Joshwa27

Finding your cache Joshwa27, thank you so much for placing it.

Bathurst trip October 2022. Day 1. I heard there was to be a Community Celebration Event in Bathurst on Tuesday, so I planned on a two day camping caching trip to join in. Rain threatened both days but only fell a few times, except overnight when it seemed to rain all night. The trip was Canberra, Cowra, Bathurst, Millthorpe, Orange, Bathurst and home again via Cowra. I managed lots of caches and enjoyed the trip away.

Once I reached Bathurst, I started with a few of these very topical racing caches. Some were much harder than others.

Thanks for the cache Joshwa27

11020 Located by baby&Mrs gopher as we drove through Bathurst headed to Lane Cove at 0845. SL Tnx Joshwa27.

We've come out to Bathurst for the weekend for a mini geo-holiday, with the focus mainly on collecting a bunch of pre-solved puzzle caches. After running parkrun in -2 degrees, GGCoconut and I met up with Team Canary and Its_Dozzie for a yummy breakfast before systematically making our way around Bathurst, Mt Panorama and beyond to grab said caches. Truth be told, I have never really been into 'The Great Race'. We were very firmly a Holden family though, and I do recall that I liked Brocky as a kid, because my big brother did. But I will say that these puzzles have kindled a bit of an interest and appreciation for the skill involved and some of the famous incidents that have taken place over the years. Quick find before heading off to look for some traditionals and kangaroos! TFTC!

On our travels from Brisbane to Tasmania I'd planned a detour via Bathurst so we could drive the SS Ute around the track.
Before leaving we solved a few of the nearby puzzle caches and found them today.
No trouble adding our names to the log on this one.

#14859 - 11:04:00 AM; Day two of a caching mission around the Mid West Region with Sol de lune. The major focus of our mission was to collect "History of...." and other solved puzzles around Carcoar, Blayney, Millthorpe, Orange and Bathurst and many other little towns and villages along our route. After a frosty start, we finished the day with one DNF along with 50+ cache and adventure lab finds around Bathurst with a final stop in Cowra to wrap things up as we headed for home. Logs were signed or stamped to record our visit. Many logs were damp, with a couple very soggy due to the recent extended period of wet weather. Apologies for the generic logs. TFTC Joshwa27

TFTC and puzzle.

Day two of a road trip from Canberra with LuckyL10n to the Orange and Bathurst regions to grab a few of the Joshwa27 puzzles. We headed up through Cowra, Carcoar, Blayney and Lucknow picking off the puzzles, as well as a few other multis and trads that time allowed. The weather was kind to us and it was great out and about for a while.

After a great night at the Kelso pub we were out on the road by 7.45am and like yesterday, the caches were found without issue and our names were soon in the log book.

Thanks Joshwa27 for the caches, appreciated the time that has gone in the research and the setting up of the caches.

TFTC a quick find along our journey. Thank you for the history and posters. They helped make these caches even more interesting.

A quick find with WaywardWoman while caching inc Bathurst area. Signed log and returned as found. TFTC

#6358- I know I watched this race too. An instant find with thomo31. Thanks

A chance to get away for a Canberra Long weekend was taken and so fitzy_1965 and I made plans to head to Bathurst. It was our first try at camping in the back of the GeoMover. Whilst it was chilly, it was much better than having to set up a tent in the freezing cold. Snow is definitely on the way!

It has been a while since we headed up this way as evident by the explosion of unfound caches up this way. Always good to find a Joshwa27 cache or two but turned out to be a lot more this weekend.

All caches were found quickly and easily. Many thanks to all the CO’s.

28,160. Found with minniek during a (mostly) long weekend trip up to the Oberon/Bathurst region hunting "Joshwa27" caches.

With a huge number of new Joshwa27 puzzles being published (and solved by us), and a Canberra only long weekend, we decided to head up to the Oberon/Bathurst region for a trial run of our new Camping Van configuration. Lots of J27 caches and many other ones were the result. So much fun was had this weekend despite the nasty weather coming in on Monday. This next find was a quick one now that we were in Bathurst itself. Stamped the log, replaced the cache as found, then headed off to the next one.

Thanks Joshwa27 !! An awesome weekend !

In Bathurst today for a half day of caching, picking up all those solved puzzles and enjoying some sightseeing.
TFTC Wilbert6

It was very wet and with a puppy in tow I searched what I thought was obvious but no luck. Will return when not so wet

GPS a little jumpy!!!

I um-er discovered this cache by looking in a hide. I signed the log. However, I didn't know which cache it was. I needed to solve three caches to find it. So, I signed the log first and then solved the puzzle. TFTC Joshwa27.

After a weekend at the Bathurst 6 Hour it was time to head home grabbing some caches along the way TFTC

You were right. Very obvious. TFTC

Quickly found, thanks again.

What would cachers do without these? TFTC Joshwa

Yes, seen quite a few in this type of hide. TFTC

A quick find after we left the circuit

super quick find on our pushy adventure , many thanx for the new puzzles

*FTF* thanks for another puzzling cache as the sky's let loose again
