Found on 14/4 with TrudyJane...some work going on around the entrance...and no I won't go there!!
Nice stop on the way to adelaide today. Didnt want to go any further though! Tftc
Hee, hee, I have seen this on TV. I also went to a similarly named place in Norway. TFTC alex.
A long weekend and another trip with the geo 'rents and geobro'. What a cool way to spend Easter
Headed for Albury for 2 nights and then Bendigo for 1 night and we took each day as the caches came. A turn here, a turn there, a dirt track here and there and miles and miles of bitumen [^]
LOL, I've just seen one of geobro's cache logs and it reads very much like mine
Although he forgot to mention that he not so kindly shared his viral germs with geomum and I! [xx(]
Today I found 23 caches and had 3 DNFs
Unless mentioned otherwise, please know that your cache and log book was in good condition.
Cool! An alex cache out here
Now most people know that telling me 'don't go there!' means that I MUST go there!
Not quite what we were expecting the container to be as we were looking for a small and this is a micro but at least it is still in reasonable condition.
We were ready to replace it after reading previous logs but no need to as it still looks waterproof.

We're off on a four day geofamily (Geodad: moneydork, Geomum:Tounga, Geosis: locus cache and geobro: ME) road trip adventure heading to Albury and Bendigo. A lot of miles were covered, many sights seen, lots of laughs, mirth and merriment during the trip. Oh, we found a few caches along the way as well.
The things you find when your traveling the open plains ... A quick stop and sign.
Thanks for the cache alex.

It was almost as hot as ..... No I won't go THERE but I did find the cache Thanks for giving me a break from driving TFTC alex
4632. Found with Relish64 and the geohound on our way back to Narrandera for the night.
A nice location and a quick find and we were on our way once again. Nice to break the trip up with a cache or two.
We went there and had a laugh!

On our way from Hay to Mildura there were not too many geocaches, but this was one. Was a bit curious what we would find if we had driven up the road, but since it was marked as private we did not dare (or maybe it was the name in itself that stopped us).
Cache was soon found, log signed and we on our way again.

Still an old pooey nappy right where my GPS said GZ was. After a little look around found this cache nice and snug. Almost due for a new container but other than that TFTC. Found with graceashmac and geokids. 1 to go until I raise the bat.
TFTC, a quick stop on a long drive, #2 for the day.
Luckily we didn't need to go through the gates- not quite ready to see what's on the other side found with graceash and geokids

Today we travelled towards Narrandera with geovan in tow using geocaching as a guide and picking up a few on the way and this was one of them.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Sadly a DNF, but the photo was worth the stop. There was a dirt nappy where it read 0 metres. I hope it was still there, but I couldn't find anything.
Too many parked there today!!!! Not able to wait around ( well I don't won't to go there either) maybe next year when we travel through this way.
We are on our way to South Australia so we stopped to find this cache as we were passing.
I was trying to think what this cache name would mean as we travelled towards it. Well that was unexpected, very funny. Your right we don't want to go there.

I can't believe it! On the drive down to Adelaide, I stopped here on recommendation of a friend and I didn't even check if there's a cache hidden there. Well, no such mistake on the return drive. Found and logged.
As Nelson Muntz said after watching Naked Lunch ... "I can think of at least two things wrong with that title"

We came to Qld to attend the mega and after we headed of to Kingaroy for a couple of days but now we slowly make the trip back to Adelaide grabbing caches along the way, we thank all those hid caches for us to find along our journey back. TFTC
Our Geo-Buddies, Nannie & Pa knew about this one but didn't stop on their road trip earlier this year but told us we should go check it out on our way home from the QLD Mega. So after staying in Hay overnight, Nannie gave us the directions of it being 25kms from Hay on the right, so we drove and we drove and we drove until finally we found Hells Gate (bit more than 25kms Nannie). We stopped out front and went off to find the cache when suddenly a huge double length Fuel Tanker came screaming to a halt and turned into Hell Gateway then the Devil of a Driver sped off down that road to who knows where? I guess they need fuel in Hell to keep the burners going down there. Well we're not planning on finding out any time soon ourselves though. TFTC
Found on the way home from the Queensland Mega event in Stanthorpe with Uni and Shonky. We had a fantastic time finding a lot of great caches along the way.
TFTC,
Cheers and Happy Hunting

I like the clever name !

Hopefully we wont go there BUT after the last few days of VERY HOT weather we should be acclimatized easy find TFTC
Quick stop here and sevabo found it and we are caching on the way to Sydney from Adelaide via Mildura. When two cars towing the trailers passed us then I was wondering what over there looks like? I don't dare to go there anyway. TFTH
I love this place and saw two cars with stuffs to go thru the gate. wow brave people to move in heh [ thanks for bringing us here
A nice quick find on our way home from Canberra I don't know were the last few were looking, replaced log as old one was full, tftc
I had a look for this one but I couldn't find it today. I looked for a small, I looked for a micro, but nothing came to view. I note that the last two logs were DNFs, but other before said it was hard to find, so I suspect it may well still be there, but I wasn't good enough to find it, or my GPS was way off track. My thanks to alex for placing it.
We certainly don't want to go there! And we do understand why they have given this property such an unwelcoming name.
Took a bit of a look before we got to sign the log sheet, but we got there in the end

Found at 10:36 AM GAFF5. As we approached GZ we saw two ladies busily signing a log sheet and looking over their shoulders as we pulled up - they must be cachers we said to each other And we were right - it was flic85 and MuggleJess (who doesn't have an account yet)
We then proceeded to have a quick chat and they then had to go on their way as they needed to be in Dubbo by 5.00pm for the start of a Mallee Fowl convention! It must be a very low key convention as Mallee Fowls are quite rare and very shy
However before they left, Jess showed me where the cache was located and - gosh we were so glad that they found it before we arrived as we would probably have been there for ages.
This is another cache that we were going to do on our way to the Oz Mega but had to skip it as we ran out of time.
Thanks alex.

Just like the previous logger we went to GZ via the GPS and geotrail, but failed to find anything. Can we assume it has gone to hell? Thanx
Found GZ but could not locate the cache. Found what may have been the lid, but then again this may have just been rubbish.
Hells gate, gee i guess its a tough part of the world. After some looking found cache,
it aint big so hard to find.
it aint big so hard to find.
Final cache found on the long drive with the geo-crew to an over-nighter in Balranald. The geo-son and I made the find, only interrupted by a muggle from hell that approached from the north along the long dusty driveway. We waited until he had vanished off down the highway towards Hay before replacing the hide. Many thanks alex
Awesome spot to break up the trip! Thanks for drawing my attention to these gates along the boring drive!
The Mega Event has come to an end Now it is the long drive home and back to work At least there are a few caches to be had on the way home . Thank you for placing this one

On the way home from the canoe polo National Championships in Canberra. It's a long drive so we thought we would stop and grab a few caches along the way. TFTC

Heading off to Oz Mega event in Murray Bridge with Darzee Di when we found this cache. great country tftc alex
On our way to the OZ Mega in Murray Bridge, ACTchil and I grabbed this and a few more along the way.
Yesterday I start the long drive to OZ MEGA at Murray Bridge.
I managed to get a few hours sleep at a truck stop before waking up at 02:30 am and not being able to go back to sleep. So I packed the car and started all over again.
Finally the sun is up and I don't need a torch to find caches.

Yes, we hope we don't go there. Thanks for the reminder ALEX. Heading south to the OZ MEGA this was our second days drive. Picking up a few caches to enhance our journey - this was one. A nice quick find at the end of a long day. Thanks for the cache. [^][^]
No, let's not go there, especially with a micro. Thanks

I found this one 3 years ago with geohubby before I was caching, it has changed I thought I knew where to find it, but it had moved and also containers had changed. Off to the Mega, TFTC
Clever name made more sense when we got to gz.

"Don't go there?" I asked no one in particular as I looked at the gates. "But I'm already here."
And besides, I thought whimsically, there ain't no other place I will be going.
Thanks for the preview.

I think I live permanently in a hand basket, so this looks like it is going to be my destination.
I thought I was looking for a small, so this took much longer to find than it should.
Thanks for an amusing place to stop .

Hot, dry, dusty. and a bloody long way from anywhere. Stopping for a cache is as much as you would want to do. Aptly named.
#9 of 85 on our trip to Oz Mega 2014 in Murray Bridge.
Well I did step through the gates but today was not my time!
We couldn't spot the small but did find a micro!?!

These aren't the sort of gates you expect to see too often.
We definitely didn't want to go down that road today so we just found the cache and continued on our way in the opposite direction.

On route to OZ Mega, stopped at this one late at night, and had to walk back to the car a couple of times to reread some logs, i was looking for a small but instead i found a micro. TFTC
Off we go to the Oz Mega 2014! Rapidlywild and I were making the looooong road trip to South Australia from Canberra. So as any good cacher would, we stopped by a number of caches along the way to collect
Moving right along on our journey, and this one was the next stop for us. Wow what a name! Must be very apt for this spot in the summer! It was night time now for us so out came the torches-where RW came up with the goods here
Thanks for the hide, alex

We Are Off To The Oz Mega in Murray Bridge Woot Woot
It was FINALLY time to get on the road for an epic long road trip from Canberra, ACT to Balaklava, SA then across to Murray Bridge for the Oz Mega . specimenX and I had been planning this for months and counting down the days and it was finally time.
After packing up the car with all the camping gear and essentials for the trip, we got on the road. As every geocaching knows, our planned 12 hour trip turned into one of a massive 17 hour driving/Geomission. By the time we finally got to Balaklava, our eyes were rolling backwards in our heads. In total, we collected about 18 caches along the way, does not sound like many, but when you place 18 caches on top of a 12+ hour drive, it gets very tiring.
We were fortunate enough to have great weather for the trip so we got to Balaklava without any issues along the way.
Well that's definitely an interesting name for a property lol

#1644 - 16:20; Sol de lune and LuckyL10n were now well on their way to Balranald which is the end of stage one of their great big SA Road Trip. After exiting the ACT around 8:00am, headed to Balranald, this cache provided sufficient reason to break the journey to stretch the legs before hitting the road again. Aptly named I think! TFTC alex
Not very enticing is it? Great to have something of interest on an otherwise fairly bland drive tftc
