Grabbed with Luckyl10n while on our way south to the Parkville Mega in Melbourne. No problems making the find...in what turns out to be our last Victorian dragonZone to be claimed. Woo Hoo….
Great to finally get out here and knock this one off....

#GA3225 - 11:15; Headed to Melbourne for the Parkville 2018 Mega with Sol de lune and decided we'd leave the highway at Holbrook and head south to Walwa to claim our final Victorian dragonZone. After picking up a GC trad on the way into the town, we soon reached the CFA shed and had a snap or two taken for posterity. TFTT Geocaching Australia

We took a circuitous route from Gundagai to Wodonga today, visiting Tumbarumba and Walwa along the way. Whilst in Walwa we located the CORS antenna on the CFS building. The required photo has been added to the Gallery. Thanks for the cache.
