It's Elementary # 05 Breadalbane, New South Wales, Australia
By my_name_jeff_1 on 21-Jan-24. Waypoint GCAJPK8

Knowing we were going to be passing by here today on our trip to Violet Town, I thought I might have a go at some of these Elementary# LBH puzzles as I like LBHs and I like puzzles. At GZ we quickly honed in on GZ where youngest geokid climbed up to make the grab where, once again, a LBH cache had no stamp. That's disappointing as we collect those and we are so far 0/2.

#7700Heading to mum's to celebrate her birthday with the geoWife. Time for a few caches on the way - especially given this D/T combo. Deployed TOTT and added our names to the log. Cool to be so close to the wind farm.TFTC my_name_jeff_1

Drove down the road collecting a number of these caches. Lucky I had a TOTT in the car. TFTC.

A wet cold day around this region today however running in and out of cars soon had us warming up. Fun drive with a bit of history around to enjoy despite the inclement weather. Quick find. TFTC My_name_jeff_1

Be careful of the rotting branched. A big one fell while climbing. TFTC

Always nice to bag some more caches in the Elements series. This one was a straightforward solve and find today, thanks my_name_jeff_1!

For my last day off of my annual leave, I decided to head to Goulburn for the CITO. Of course I went and found other caches that have been on the to-find-list for far too long. I found 25 caches today which all had various different cache types, containers, hides and D/T ratings. I started off finding the caches along Lerida Rd before heading into Goulburn for a few more caches and of course the CITO. The CITO was great fun as well. I also enjoyed the catch up with everyone and spending a bit of time finding a few caches together. Most were easy finds but a few were a difficult to get in hand plus I also had one DNF. I enjoyed my day out and now time to head home. TB visit on all found caches. A big thanks to the CO for adding this cache to game for the Geocaching community to enjoy. TFTE & TFTCs!

Headed out this morning with ilookgeo, but not early as the ground was rather frosty and crisp. All the caches along this road were easily spotted and retrieved. Both names were soon added to the log. This one was located at about the right height. Thanks for this cache go to my_name_jeff_1 for placing this cache.

Went for a short drive today with goingplaces2 and picked up some caches along the way. Had no trouble making the finds. Saw lots of sheep and kangaroos along the way. TFTC.

I have to say that I was very pleased to be able to solve all but one of this series. That one, I had to seek some assistance. I decided to have a look at them when I knew that we would be in the general area of a number of them.Those that we looked for, were all found in good condition and with great coords.Thank you for adding to this fun addiction of ours.

GT37 and I had a great week of caching with Team Crackers and The Drovers in and around the Bathurst area. On the way back, we decided to do some more of the numerous caches around this area. We attempted mainly caches that we had solved although we did do some others after taking the wrong road.GT37 solved these a couple of nights ago so we looked for, and found, any that we came across. Coords were great and all finds in good condition. Thanks for placing this series for all to enjoy.

Having worked out some coordinates last week, I made a detour during my usual Sunday night commute and headed to GZ. Unable to spot anything from the ground via torchlight, I placed the TOTT in the most likely spot and ascended to have a look, and serendipitously, the container was quickly located. Thanks for the cache my_name_jeff_1

It's not often I get the opportunity to get to a GGGT, so when I was free to actually get up the highway to get there, #94 and #95 just happen to be my first. Better late than never! With KittyKatch, Contesta, LuckyL10n and Albida, we set off in the afternoon with some letterbox caching along the way. The afternoon of caches went very quickly, and a 'one last cache' that had us the wrong side of the tracks, or the right side really for the barriers to stop us and wait for the train to pass and keep passing... it was a longer train than expected, and a bit of fun watching it wondering when it would even end! We arrived at the CITO to be greeted by a very large group. Where it was good to catch up, although not too cold, it was nice to head inside into the warmth. It was a great evening of good company and conversation - and the lamb cutlets were definitely as good as I have been hearing about! I'm glad I've finally managed to get there and looking forward to trying to get back to another. Thanks for the cache!

Find # 12075Keen to attend as many of the mid-week Goulburn events as I can and so I was glad to join KittyKatch, albida33, LuckyL10, and aquillis for a spot of caching along the way.Today we were targeting some letterboxes and a challenge. Short days with fewer daylight hours means less time for caching but we did well.Thought this find might be a challenge but not so. All caches located, retrieved, signed, and replaced.Thanks my_name_jeff_1 for It's Elementary # 05 and this nice little series

#19541 - 5:10:00 PM; Received an invitation to join albida33 for a caching run to Goulburn to attend a CITO and a catchup event for tea with our newlywed cachers afterwards. The plan was to collect some newer LBH caches which were not far from the major roads to our destination, along with a couple of others along the same stretch. We were joined by Kittykatch who performed driving duties with Contesta and Aquilus1 following behind. All up we managed 11 caches prior to the two events once we reached Goulburn. All were found in good condition and returned as found after the logs were signed. TFTC my_name_jeff_1

With lots of amazing events and activities over the past two months, it has been quite some time since an afternoon outing to Goulburn for dinner. This situation was rectified today and plans were made for some late afternoon caching before joining in for the pre-dinner CITO in Belmore Pk. I joined Kitty Katch, Aquillus, Contesta and LuckyL10n to tackle the newish series of Elementary puzzles, west of Goulburn. We had no trouble finding them, even if some of them had creeped from there advertised locations. As we went for the required just one more, not only had it become dark, but we had to wait for a train to get back on the highway, all very exciting. We managed to find two caches here, one reachable from the ground and one where it was supposed to be, but not an original container.Thanks for the cache my_name_jeff_146300.2 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 10000 Finds A#252**Albida**

Next, I headed out to this letterbox. The tether was quickly spotted, but I realised that I would need a Tott from the geomobile. Once I had that, the cache was soon in hand and my name added to the log. With everything returned as found, I continued on my way. TFTC

Accompanied with 63ROOS, enjoyed trip to Yass, Crookwell, Gunning, Goulburn for catch up caches tks

Accompanied with ALL7, prefect weather today than yesterday been raining offs ons catch up with Goulburn caches area heaps, Home work this puzzle last night for some of series, as good fun day. TFTC

The rains have arrived, it started in the wee hours this morning and not great for caching but when on an agenda and with caches to be had, onwards & upwards!!! Cache found, signed & returned.

Find#1943Found today on our first day caching around Goulburn. Me and Shaneo58 are down here to work on some challenge caches near home in the Hunter valley and trying to claim some unique DTs to fill our grid also. After arriving here we made a quick find. Shaneo again climbing up to claim this. Cache and log in good condition TFTC

Found this cache with deni_f. Nice hide. TFTC.

Found on a cool drizzly Autumn day. In the area after the Mega and a few more caches of course.Not many muggles around and another good find . Thanks for the cache my_name_jeff_1, ***Roostaman***

After a busy few days in Canberra for the Capital Geo Bash mega event, I spent a night in Goulburn before slowly making my way back home to Adelaide. I have been targeting solved puzzles caches and any high Difficulty or Terrain caches. In the morning I tackled this Its Elementary trail which were solved without too much trouble. All were found without problems. A good mix of Terrain levels here too which was good fun. TOTT was required for me and the cache was found without problems. Thank you my_name_jeff_1, for placing It's Elementary # 05 for the geocaching community.# # #14686 # #

Arrived at a tree that looked unlikely... one just down the road looked better. A quick check and I saw the typo in my coords and the cache was soon in hand! TFTC.

Day #6 Geobashing After a late night dash for a FTF, we were unprepared at the time for some of the other nearby caches so a group of us returned to finish them this morning.OZHockeyChick and I then spent the rest of the day touring the northern part of Canberra and into NSW, picking up all sorts of targeted caches.A short climb to grab this one. All good at GZ.A big thanks goes to my_name_jeff_1 for taking the time to add It's Elementary # 05 to the geocaching map for us all to find and enjoy.----------------------------------------------------------Looking for caches to find when visiting Victoria?

Canberra Geobash Road Trip 2024. Day Six: Heading north-east again to finish off some LBs and WIGs we didnt have time for last time.Time to tick off a few more of the elements series. We bumped into Bucketeer along here, and joined forces to find a cache or four.Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, my_name_jeff_1 ??~????????~

A weekend of caching, labing, laughter, fun, and adventure with my great mates The Rats and Steeba. Just want I needed! A weekend like this is good for the soul.We headed from Wollongong to the Canberra Mega, via many caches and Labs along the way. We had a 48 hour early Easter window of opportunity that we needed to exploit!As always the banter was excellent, and the caching secondary to that. We found a lot of excellent caches, and this boiler plate log should not detract from them in any way.Thank you to all of the cache hiders, and the event committee.Cheers

Rolling on to the next cache.The trip bit.Easter geocaching festival of twenty twenty four. This time it is the turn of Oz Mega GeoBash MEGA event in the nation's capital. It is time for a road trip across country to Canberra in the Sporty Pajero Sports. Freddo and Gridge98 traveling from Adelaide via a strange inland route that takes in scenic rural locations, dusty roads, punctured tyres, overheating batteries, various tools of the trade, special campgrounds, and lots scope for many many geocaching finds. Along the way we saw running emus, jumping kangaroos, wandering deer, dead foxes, herds of wooly sheep and stray steers.Arriving in Canberra we met our colleagues e.gregory1, featherwaite, team walron, courtney rose, davidwazza, e_smilie, and georode, signing as ABP, plus a huge group of other like minded excited mega geocachers attending event after event, and more events.Day one. Adelaide to Broken HillDay two. Broken Hill to WellingtonDay three. Wellington to CowraDay four. Cowra to BathurstDay five. Bathurst to CanberraDay six. Canberra to CanberraDay seven. Canberra to QueenbeeyanDay eight. Canberra to AdelaideThe generic bit.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

Hi ho Hi Ho, off to the Mega we go. An early easter egg hunt and find with Bella@Waggy and BaktrakSL TFTC

Reperio 09:29Travelled towards Canberra today with my Miss Vitruvius for the upcoming Capital GeoBashMega event, and we spent the majority of the day chasing geocaching series and power trails. We managed to replace a few containers and logs in different places, but for most of things, the caches were found in good condition. Gratias my_name_jeff_1As a well spent day brings happy sleep, a well spent life brings happy death - LDV

Out on a Mega caching effort with a couple of skilled accomplices and an excessive stock of tools and transport options. Thanks my_name_jeff_1.

A quick find here, cache is all goodHeaded over to the Capital GeoBash in Canberra, ACT with Freddo over 5 days, travelling through the central part of NSW before caching around the hinterlands. A nice few days over with great weather.Thanks for the cache

Headed down to Canberra for the Capital GeoBash Mega Event with The Rats and Hoojar for plenty of various finds along the way and around the ACT.TFTC!

It wouldnt be Easter without spending some of it with my mates caching somewhere. This year its Mega mania in Canberra.Spent a couple of days buzzing around Canberra collecting finds and participating in the various mega activities. A big thanks to the organisers and the COs for the caches we found.TFTC

Heading to the Mega so a small detour to pick up select caches. Some free climbs and some ladder climbs. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC

Glad we have our ladder. This cache needed a little bit of maintenance so we gladly did that. All good again here. Thank you.

Caching around the area, enjoying the country road.A quick find here. Signed and replaced as found.Many thanks for placing this cache, my_name_jeff_1, for us and others to find.

Quick stop for a DT we have none left of at home. Thank you for the fun

Found and signed dsd on a cold dark night.

DSD mentioned that he was planning to grab some new letterbox caches up near Goulburn sometime "before sunrise".I couldn't let him go alone, but didn't finish work until 11:15pm! I always have plenty of energy after late night shifts however, so agreed to a spontaneous night time adventure! We left Canberra at 11:40pm and didn't return until 3:30am! We managed to get 12 caches in total though, as we decided to find the rest of the caches along the same trail as the ones that had come out! Three of these had blank logs, and two we were beaten by a Goulburn local! Oh, and to make things even more interesting we BOTH forgot to bring a torch...! So the whole expedition was done by phone light! Thanks my_name_jeff_1!

Nice quick pick up and a very nice DT Lovely to be out and about today. Picked up on the way to Goulburn.Thanks for getting me out and about my_name_jeff_1

Find#6447Nice hiding place Found with KK and Joolay Thanks for the cache

Found with Joolay snd Sebas19 on the way to Goulburn events today. We dragged the smaller tott out of the car to easily reach this one. Noted that one of the branches is quite wobbly and loose so careful as you put that ladder up. Thanks for the hide my_name_jeff_1

Cache 10928 on 28 Jan 2024. TikvaNZ, ZQX and I had already planned to grab a couple of caches in this series early this morning and so were pleasantly surprised to see a couple more of the series published last evening! We did not change plans, just headed out as planned. All the LBHs were quickly solved. I scored 6 caches for the morning and back home in time for a late breakfast! A small tree, but a ladder used all the same. Quick retrieve after ladder partly deployed. Thanks my_name_jeff_1 for the cache and the fun!

Found with friends AngelG27 and TikvaNZ on a sunny Sunday morning. Better locks, said Spooner. And I said "yes please".We used a TOTT to get to this one.TFTC

#21572 @0815An early Sunday morning excursion was planned with ZQZ amd AngelG27 to grab some of the caches here, then two more were published, making the trip even more worthwhile. Cache easily found. ZQX climbed the TOTT to sign the log. TFTC.

Found with Domsky, barb2e and SmittenGranny on a spontaneous caching trip. So nice to be out of the city. TFTC *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*

We found this on our drive through the area, which was a spontaneous trip with a few fellow geocachers. We are enjoying this series so much they have often been a great diversion on our drives to and from Sydney. Thanks my_name_jeff_1 Domsky

Found with Domsky, Smittengranny and isopeda on a morning out exploring. Nice spot. Tftc

I had an absolutely fabulous day thanks to Domskys, who even picked me up from home to go after some very challenging Challenge caches. We were joined by barb2e and Isopeda for a pretty full-on day. Although originally the aim had been the challenge caches, we were soon tempted to change plans and try to get a FTF. That didn't quite work out, but 2nd TF is not to be sneezed at. We then continued on, grabbing a handful of various caches that seemed to get in our way. But then, who's complaining? TFTC that was found quickly, and the log was signed. Thanks again to Domsky's for demonstrating her climbing prowess.

#7381Happy Australia Day!Were in the ACT for the weekend, filling grid squares and finding fun caches, usually in trees! An early start in Mittagong and a car full of TOTTs and hopes are high for a great day.This was a quick solve, then a quick findThanks for the cache!

#7381Day 2/4 of our Australia Day caching weekend. Happy Australia Day! ???? Mittagong -> CanberraToday is our first full day of caching, driving from Mittagong to Canberra and grabbing whatever we can along the way, then spending the next 2 nights in Canberra! Targetting good DTs, trees, cool types, and whatever else we decide on! Quick solve a few days ago, after chucking the ladder up with no luck, we repositioned to find a nice little cache.

#4601 3.36pm. I had been procrastinating working all day. A couple of trips out and about to run some errands and a bit of caching on the side.Finally home a bit after 2pm and this trio were still up for grabs some 6 hours after being published.Jumped on the PC and calculated some final coords before hitting the road. Once again, any excuse not to work! With just over an hour on the road ahead of me I was still in for a shot at [FTF].That last 20km seemed to take forever but was finally within range of my goal.Pulled over fairly close to this spot and walked on over through the grass, being sure to scan for any undesirables of the bitey type. Reached GZ and took a look around the object in my vicinity. It was at this point that I realised that attributes are put there for a reason. Once I spotted the cache I assessed my chances of heading up unaided and was happy that I had the work ute and equipment at my disposal nearby.Hey, thats what tools are for. So grabbed the most suitable one and made the retrieval.Maybe I can consider it to be work if a work tool was used! Cheers jeff_1!!
