Enjoyed our visit to this beautiful little town.
Found the cache fairly easily but unfortunately it is very damp. Dried it out the best we could while we were there.

Thanks for the cache Team Yota

The clue helped as GPS had us wandering around due to the trees overhead.
Contents were damp. Looks like the rain got it but didn't wash it away as last entry suggested.

Lovely algal blooms here. Had a quick look around, was wondering if the cache hadn't floated away in the recent rain.
Found in the dark and the cold with Pesky! and Shifter Brains. Access is hard to find at night, but with some local advice, we found the path and the cache easily. No exchanges.
Thanx for the cache.

Momma come find this cache for me,
Cause I can't see them any more,
It's getting too dark, too dark to see...
feels like I'm tripping through the bushes, and finding out that there is water in this area, stepping on squishy stuff, and playing at being freddy Kruger two way radios!
this was a fun cache,and the delisious scents from the nearby restaurant made it even harder to concentrate.

Found it after about 20 minutes, has recently been underwater by the looks, and a lot of water in container, Will require maintenance & possibly a higher hide? Took travel bug mini and left some cash towards new dry logbook etc.
Rated: for Overall Experience
Shot past the parking area for this one expecting GZ to be somewhere else. Very quiet this morning but there is evidence of trail bike frequenting the area.
Took nothing, Left TB Mini Green Car.

I never new this part existed. Much nicer than the main area of Tucker Park. Thanks Team Yota for pointing it out.
TNLNSL but moved MRCOGEO GeoToken-Geocoin to another location.

Our first Australian find! After the disappointment of not locating Snifter's Bone, we were again disappointed to find this cache very wet. We weren't able to sign the log as the book was a soggy mess. TNLN
After a fun filled day on the CC at the C.O.D event I had to rush up to Hilldale for a family Event (well the In-Laws family) found this on the way. Unfortunately it was full of water, did what I could which was not much (Time was short) and left, it’s a lovely spot all the same, TFTH.
Started to feel the city life stresses abate as I got closer to the great forests and National Parks up here. Found cache OK. Then went to do Snifters Bone but the park was crowded with young kids swinging high and wide into the river below on a stinking hot day. Would have loved to join them but settled for a cool ale at the local and a burger at the famous corner shop.
Snifters bone will be an excuse to return later.

Thanks Team Yota

Lots of weed in the pond, very quaint area. Took hilighter and left flat. Thanks Team Yota.
Final cache on the way to Dun’s Creek. Took two attempts to find this one (had to revisit the car for the hint). The heat must have gotten to me as I was looking for a “regular†size when the notes clearly read “small†and I had grabbed my old GPS whereas my new one had the hints loaded in.
Off to my mates for some long cool drinks (of tank water [^]– nothing better!!)
Thanks for the cache.

One find yesterday and I've got the bug again.
Happy to report cache is in good condition. Took nothing, left nothing as I forgot to bring my swaps with me.
Spent the rest of the afternoon returning the favour. Should be a new local cache published sometime this week.

Either the "difficulty" rating is incorrect or i am missing something obvious [:o)]. Check for ages and eventually gave up, especially since this one is suppose to be easy ...maybe a hint for those of us who can't find it?

Two YOTA virgins in one day!
Having decided to go caching in the rain, I wasn't going to be satisfied with just one chance to get wet, so after tracking down YOTA's Maitland Views micro, I kept going and went for this one as well.
Getting to Patterson was easy. Getting to the cache was a bugger. (Note to self: changing GPS from 'follow road' setting to 'off road' can sometimes stop aimless travels around irrelevant streets.)
Once I sorted out my parking problem I went for another walk in the wet and found my quarry within about 10 minutes. It's small and well hidden, but findable.
Swapped the defunct laser pointer for a mini-hiliter and a squishy (geo?)monkey. This cache was so small (200ml clip-lock)I couldn't fit any other swaps into it.
Nice log book guys, thanks for the fun.
