It's time to archive this cache as it requires maintenance and I can't see myself getting back to Wagga in the near future. And my geo-kids are now geo-adults and they are no longer active players.

I'm pleased it bought joy to 147 geocachers over its 15 year existence.

Found. Cache is waterlogged. Book is soaked!

Great place for a stroll. Easy access. TFTC

Quick find on a beautiful day

Quick find in nice location. Logbook is a little water damaged but managed to sign it. TFTC!

Found it. Good hide. TFTC

Going for a walk around the Pomingalarna Reserve and decided to grab a cache. Pen didn’t work so send photo to owner. Nice easy find just off the track

Headed out of Brisbane on Friday afternoon with Seff and Lennondayz29 to head to the Mega. We had our first overnight stop in Moree, spent Saturday caching our way to Dubbo for another overnight stop, and Sunday was spent working our way through more of the epic Seff-list. Finally we arrived in Wagga and dropped Lennondayz off at the accommodation to get cleaned up and have a break before dinner, while Seff and I headed out for a few more caches, including this one.

As we parked Victor del Prado and headed off down the track we saw a few walkers returning to their vehicles in the fading light; apparently we were the only ones nuts enough to be heading out in the fading light! Having seen a NT plate in the carpark this was something of a relief as I'd been joking about some random territories cacher beating us to the unloved on offer here!

The track made for a seriously easy stroll to GZ where the cache was found after a bit of digging by Seff. Seems like the weather may have made a slight alteration to the cache hide! TFTC and unloved.

Dez (JezNDez), Lennondayz29 and I headed off on Friday from Brisbane, making our leisurely way south towards the Mega event in Queanbeyan. Our overnight stop last night was Dubbo and, with an early start, continued our journey southwards. Another cracking autumn day with sun shining and barely a cloud in the sky.

After a full day of caching and a slight change to the itinerary of caches due to time getting away from us, we arrived into Wagga late afternoon. After dropping Lennondayz29 at our overnight accommodation, Dez and I headed out to target this and another nearby cache that, for some reason, had not seen a visitor in 14 months.

There were a few local walkers in the area but most were heading back to the cars as we arrived. Setting off in the failing light, we pondered the lack of recent finders. It's an easily accessible location with good trails that would easily accommodate a decent stroller and lead almost the entire way to GZ!

With darkness almost upon us it was with the aid of our head lamps that the cache was located.

A great area to walk in, and definitely deserves more visitors. TFTC

TFTC! Found on a lovely walk around wagga. Logbook is water damaged

I have another day off work. I guess I could go get some geocaches for the last souvenir of the month. It was a great day as the warm sun was shining and the birds were singing. All this and great locations made for a fun day. Thanks to all CO’s for the fun I had and the caches I found today.
I was a little upset with this cache as shown in the photos the cache was all over the place so I gathered it all up, put it back in the container with a new piece of paper for the log, placed in the spot where it should be hidden and then I went on my way.

Found under a cairn! Replaced cache so it wasn't quite so obvious.

It almost tricked me. Lovely walk. Tftc

Tftc!

Headed out to this reserve, to pick up some caches in the area.
Enjoyed the walk to this one, as it was easy going along the road.
Cache was found quickly, and in good condition.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Kiama Krew, for us and others to find.

A bit of sun today so a good day for a walk, the last signature was Blakey1 in 2012 so a long time between finds TFTC Kiama Krew

[:(!] In Wagga for the week and this was one of them, parked the geocar as close as possible to GZ and walked in from there, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes.

Since the roads up here are no longer accessable by car, i parked on the road north of this cache, and walked up the hill from there.. Seemed to work well, and made a quick find. TFTC

A nice walk back down the hill from Go, SupaRoosta!

#217 found whilst doing another in the area at 2211 under lights.

Not the easiest find under the cover of darkness however found it none the less would recommend doing it in daylight hours as the territory is a little tricky by night. Great little hide and the daylight views from here would be great.

Thanks Kiama Krew for a great experience and great hide.

A reasonably quick find in the dark while passing by. TFTC.

Found with o'cholio. TFTC

Another cache found on a buchwalk though this reserve. Found easily enough. Some good views along the way, thanks.

Another nice part of the reserve we;ve visited today.
Seen a few Roos whilst navigating our way through the caches in the "Car Free Pommy Park".
Many thanks Kiama Krew - cache was located after a brief search. TNLN SL
A nice spot.

A lot of weed and grass growth near gz, almost thought about getting a whipper snipper for next time. Nice view - Tftc

#1138 @ 3.55pm. Lots of walking (wished we could drive) on a hot and humid day - had wet clothes and red faces at this time of the day. The GeoPrincess navigated us into this cache and pointed out GZ - she wasn't going to reach it for fear of spiders. TFTC Kiama Krew

BEWARE: We parked at the entrance to this park near the Golf Course and the NinjaGolf was assaulted (as well as another) whilst we were walking this area. Future cachers may prefer to park in the Golf Car Park for safety otherwise locals may be able to provide safer parking co-ords. It seems that this is not the 1st time incidents such as this have occurred here. We had a breezy trip back to Albury praying that it wouldn't rain (& it did!) & our load was lightened substantially .....BUGGAR.

Straight forward find in the wet. Cache is in good order

TFTC Had a bit of exercise on this one also enjoyed the veiw, the mozzies started honning in so we didn't stick around too long .

With a stack of wildlife mainly roos watching on (are they muggles??) I had this one quite quick as the mozzies were taking of with all my blood. Thanks for your cache in a beautiful neck of the woods.

I did look for the petro's but didn't find any Good views from here! Found easily. TFTC

A quick find unhindered by roos, wallabies, echidnas, other geocachers or muggles.

Another country cache that was great to visit

TNLN SL TFTC

Found while doing Oz Mega Event. TFTC. TNLN. SL.

Nothing too difficult about this hide. A decent view, reminiscent of Canberra caching.

Found during the Mega Event. A great time was had by teaming up with a number of geo friends and meeting others at the cache site. TFTC

Screaming around the traps for the ozmega and I have a 4WD up my backside wondering why I'm slowing down...it's because I want to get the cache before I get the waypoint
nice views indeed!

Accompanied Everlasting, Alchemy2, and crank1 during Oz Mega Event, a nice quick find and enjoyed walking around. Thanks for the cache.

Found during the kiwi raid of the Wagga Caches. There are places you really shouldn't take a hired campervan but it was getting too late in the day for a walk to all the caches in the area so off we set. Quick find for this one T4TC.

Had lots fun with Crank1, Everlasting and Varuna towarding the cache.
thanks

Great view thankyou for bringing me here TFTCSL left gecko took glue

We have a good fun around the track... with crank1, alchemy2 and varuna. SL. Thanks Kiama Krew

Found while night caching during ozmega TFTC!!

Find number 6 of the 28th day of our trip to Tasmania and the Mega Event. Found at 0730hrs, find number 372 for the trip so far. The day of the Mega Event opening, and I was still a few short of making it a milestone cache, so we were out early to get the numbers.

Cheers
Bundy

Nice spot. Thanks.

Quick detour from the Oz Mega competition with annas. TFTC..

Stopped by this one while tracking down another. Thanks!

Picking up a few caches in this great park we came to another great view of the surrounding areas. Just on dusk we could see the lights start to come on.
The cache was found quickly
Thanks Kiama Crew for the cache

27/103 Found with The Rats, and Steeba, Big Mat and FarmerFretnzen on the way to Wagga.

Found during a run down to Wagga Wagga with The Rats, Big Matt and Shell, Steeba and Gribbly. A nice quick easy find in the obvious location. TNLN and TFTC.

Found 19:00 not sure way the ratings are so high on this one. Very easy find. Left TB thanks.

Called in and replaced the container. Went home via the unsealed golf course route and we saw a total of 64 kangaroos.

This was a quick find by the kids who jumped out of the car without the gps.
Caching duties completed it was time to put things back but there was a problem GK3 could not get it to close. Had a look but it wasnt GK problem the clip locks are not the best. It is closed but not the best. This one might need a new container to keep things all safe and dry.
TFTC

This was one of many caches we hoped to attend this weekend on a caching trip to Wagga before the Oz Mega Event GC1YJ5R in April next year.
If it were not for caching we would not have had a reason to visit your beautiful town. We are looking forward to returning next year to nab fewer caches allowing us time too look around and enjoy the area more.

Hope to see you all there

Good location for a sit and relax and contemplation. T: N L: N

Drove up to spot and was quick to find

Found by DB and AR

Easy find.

#541

29/45 for the day on our Wagga Blitz run with Mrs MPH and Agent Provocateur.

TFTC!

Found it.

Sweet! number 12 of my wagga mission, found this one at 1243hrs, no swaps today.
Thanks Kiama Krew

Headed off for a little drive and a quick cache after work. Thanks for a great view.

I found this cache on the Team Bananaphone Wagga caching weekend, with SuperJaz, Bewilderbeest and Ultra Violet Z.

I had fun doing this cache

Thank you thank you!!!

This cache was enjoyable. We saw an awesome sunset. TFTC

A quick find having parked about 20m from GZ. This is a great area to explore and we enjoyed it very much. TFTC

Find #27 for Team Bananaphone on our Wagga Weekend cache bash.

Found this one quite easily, just as the sun was setting most spectacularly in the west. The tracks in the area allowed us to drive very close to the cache leaving only a short walk.

Thanks for the cache

Rated: for Overall Experience

Found in the dark. fun!

Despite doing this one at night, had no problems finding this one. TFTH!

We continued our circuit of the reserve climbing high up the rough tracks to pick this one up en route. We were following a ute travelling slowly allowing the owners dogs to have a good work out on the tracks.
Nice easy find at GZ
Thanks Kiama Krew

Another easy find in this nice parkland although it is not surprisingly dry. There were still lots of birds around - I heard Rufous Whistler, Peaceful Dove, and Rufous Songlark as we were logging our find. Thanks Kiama Krew.

11:01am
Easy find for the boy. Nice views down over the city.

Cheers
