Found after a bit of look. Got covered in insects in the process but not of the bite kind. TFTC
Our first full day in Orange, and a chance to do some serious caching. We had quite a number of pre-solved caches on our agenda as well as others in the area.Our journey took us through a range of different sections of the town; residential, business, retail and some great parks and wetlands areas. We encountered some good hides which we awarded favorites as well as some challenges and straightforward finds.The weather was perfect but as usual got cold all of a sudden later in the day.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache drobbonz.**SKI Pair****
Big thanks to drobbonz for placing this cache. Cache number 8609 on March 8, 2024
Hanging right where it should be. Shame about the stolen ones.
Nice walk around the area this morning with the CO, Charlie, kiwisteve2 and Wallen.

Found, not difficult once you're in the right spot. Thanks for taking me to this beautiful area. Onto the next one!
I have changed the cache container because this is a high muggle area. Hopefully this one will last longer! Happy caching. The hint has been changed too.

I drove past this wetlands quite a bit, but hadn’t yet been for a walk around it, so today the family and I did just that. When we arrived at GZ, we were initially focused on the wrong thing to search around until I ventured out a little bit, and immediately spotted something that didn’t look quite right. Voila! Nicely done.

Had a few hours to wait so decided to take a long walk and find a few caches.
Not so easy to spot but trust the GPS and it will present itself.

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.
I wandered around the lake to have a look here. I found a broken piece of irrigation equipment, but I could not identify a log if it was part of the cache. Nothing else presented itself in the area under the trees or nearby.
Thanks.

I am moving the cache to a slightly different location because it has been "muggled". The new location is more hidden.

The cache is the same container. Please push down well to avoid it being seen. It’s all ready to find now, Good luck,
No dice this time. Pretty sure we found a very likely spot, but we'll come back another time and look harder.
Looks like we saved the best till last. A very nice cache to end our day in Orange. A FP. Thank you drobbonz for all the caches that we found today.
Ftf Thanks for a new series of caches around Orange. Took some time but finally found after rereading hint.
