After arriving and unpacking the car, we made the most of the available daylight with a lap around Gunnedah, grabbing a dozen assorted finds, GC and GCA. It seems we've basically cleared the town now....
Another CORS, they're always fun to hunt for....

On our 3rd day visiting the area from the Maitland and Kurri area, found with my daughter. TFTT
Today my aim is to pick up as many Dragonzones as possible as well as claim Moree Plains for my GC LGAs map. I started in Warialda and after Moree I will turn south towards Gunnedah and if all goes well as far as Quirindi grabbing photographs of more trigs. TFTT Geocaching Australia
#GA5221 - 09:35; Day 12 of a road trip with Sol de lune for the CacheQLD - Dayboro Mega and we are now headed for home. After spending the night in Tamworth, it was time to collect a few more caches in the area before setting off for Gunnedah where we passed a long queue waiting outside the local court house before parking around the corner to snap this CORS.

On a meandering drive through the countryside and GLiSS! K8tybee and I found ourselves in Gunnedah. We couldn’t move on without picking up at least one GCA in town. So the Gunnedah CORS it is! Managed to make it work despite the bright light. Tftc

We are on our way home from Alexandra and spent last night in Parkes. Today we are caching our way to Armidale where we will spend the night. Traffic not heavy and the weather is great. Did not have any problems finding this one. TFTT

This is a well placed CORS. Had to walk past coffee and scones to get it . . . . . well yes, don't mind if we do! Got the CORS as well.

An easily accessible find which we grabbed from the back of the building.
Thanks.
Thanks.
I think the lane past here is a locals shortcut. Pretty busy in spurts like ad if locals skipping traffic lights. Navigated past them, popped on the carpark and snapped a shot. No hands free to hold up the GPSr sorry.
QLD Mega trip 2015 with Sol de Lune. On this almost 400km road trip we drove from Canberra to Stanthorpe caching in all the towns along the way with mostly great success. Around the Mega there were heaps of caches to be done including a few power trails. Despite the weather we got all of the planned caches done.
We saw this CORS on the way north. Thanks.

Not sure IF Albida and I are the first to find this or IF maybe someone who was on the road a couple of days before us might have been here first. IF we are the first, well and good, IF not, so be it.
Anyway, another CORS crossed off. Thanks for the fun
