We enjoyed the three Stage Coach caches the history of them was explained well and it is hard to imagin the scean at them in the days of Cobb & Co. getting the vehilces into and accross the river.
Each cache had its own personality and did not cause too much trouble although we did end up on the wrong side of the river on #2 but it was not hard to track an alternative route.

My adorable boyfriend did all the hard work for this one, but I saw a platypus in the river. Not bad for an American. This is my first official cache find in Australia.

First for the afternoon. Found without drama. Boy everything has grown with all the rains this year. TNLNSL. SAW A PLATYPUS IN THE RIVER. My first sighting in the wild. Awesome.

What a beautiful spot and judging by the number of camps a lot of others think so too
Thanks Cruzzinaround

Nice relaxing place to visit. Hard to believe the history that was here all those years ago.
TFTC, TNLN

Found by Mary & David at 1350. Another beautiful area that you have shown us. Can't imagine a scene of activity and two hotels here though. Recognising the cache containers from similar items that Mary's Mum used to have in her kitchen. Our thanks yet again to Cruzzzinaround.

Found it today three out of three with the whole geo family
Another milestone cache #100 today and what a wonderful place to be at.
Always knew it was here and have been here many times for various things.

Had quite a rutty road in in the rental, but it made it all the same Again, lovely dark night sky out here. Ended up being the last cache of another long caching day. Cheers Gav [4161]

A great wee night time adventure. Managed to drive right too it. TFTC

Like so many others before us, we too approached this one from the highway side but since we didn't know what the alternate route across to the other side was we crossed the river. We were going to wade across but since it was a bit cool this day we descided to drive across. Once on the right side the cache was located nice and quick.
Thanks for the cache.
Took nothing left nothing.

Well, like others, I tried this from the wrong side of the river first! And, unlike the stage coaches of years gone by, I don't think my Forester could make the crossing... So around I went! - Lovely spot. Thanks.

Nice and easy once you get on the right side of the river. We had tried this one about 12 months ago, but with time not on our side we opted out of the drive around. Tonight was a different story. Thanks for showing us this spot.

Great spot - no wonder it's popular with the muggles. This place was very busy on a hot summer afternoon, but no-one was looking our way.
TNLN, TFTC

Start of the Cobb n Co series.
Found myself on the wrong side of the river with too much water to cross had to take the long way.
Took Earing
Left Dinosar

0917 re-logging due to name change

917 Crossed the river for this one and by doing so, we wet the wheels of the new 4by. Great place for camping but didn't appreciate the territorial magpie swooping. TFTC Cruzzzinaround

Really nice spot. Had a picnic and the whole thing.

Thanks Guys

Thanks! TNLN First cache for a great day of caching.

An interesting area.

The river crossing makes this an interesting trip.

A fun water crossing here, running the stagecoach route. An excellent spot.

Lovely drive out here in the dark. A very low river tonight.

Found today whist cruising around, yep we went to the wrong side first as well , not to worry its a nice drive, heaps of campers today,TNLN thanks for the cache location

We came in from the north to this beautiful spot. TNLN. Thanks Cruzzzinaround

Went down the road to find a river full of water - couldn't figure out how to get across to the other side. Could see tracks but, not having brought my swimmers, decided to give it a miss. My GPSr floats so had the bouyancy.

Shell and I used to come out here, to swim, fish, 4WD and exercise the dogs when we lived here. After being back in town for fork for a few days I thought I'd come for a drive out and wade the new fourbie across and grab a cache, of course if you are traction-ally challenged you can just drive in from the north without getting your feet wet!

Thanks Cruzzzinaround for the cache! I think next time I'll wear long pants as the walk to the GZ isn't much fun in shorts.

Found after wading through a forest of thistles. Nice to skip a couple of rocks into the river with the kids. TFTC

great spot u need boots spikey

Found this one easily while out with a bunch of friends from the 4X4 Club. Thanks TNLN

out for the day 4wdriving and picked this one up with some friends easy find thanks tnln

Arrived very near GZ this morning and confidently hopped out of the car and strolled toward the cache
Found myself standing on a precipice looking down into a swift flowing river beyond which lay the cache
An hour and a half later I finally found myself on the other bank of the swift flowing river
A potentially great location except for the way the locals have trashed the place
Found the cache in it's hidey hole after removing all the rubbish people had stuffed in there [:o]
TFTC.

Been to this location lots of times, but this time was to find the cache and to have morning tea before going to Narromine. Took a frog and left a toy car.
Thank Cruzzzinaround.

Found this one easy in a top spot on the river, this cache was a great way to start our river adventures! We will come back one day to camp, Thanx heaps for showing us this spot!

Found the cach at 10.30am, admire this place. no swap Thank you for organise the cache and hunt.

For us, this is why we enjoy caching so much, going to picturesque locations with history attached is always a bonus. It would be great spot to spend a few days here with a good book and a fishing rod. The cache was located quickly in an obvious but well hidden location.
The last finders were muggles {looked like children's handwriting) and there was no sign of the TB.
took frog
Left Playdoh
Thanks Cruzzzinaround

Camped here for the last couple of years. Good to see a cache here. Interested in the history of the stagecoaches and pubs.

What a very nice to go to early in the morning, and a river crossing to boot.
Thanx and it is about time someone placed a cache in this spot. Shame on us Dubbo cachers
