I hadnÂ’t even looked at Book marking yet, thatÂ’s a neat feature.

Someone asked how I made this list:
<br><br>
The collection of cache names came from a pocket query (pre 2004, not found, in Australia) then I just went though the caches in the preview of the PQ and hit bookmark for each.

Hey,

Looks like another one can be crossed off the list. :lol: Mocca has finally cracked arguably one of the hardest caches in NSW, Bronzes & Mix's Buckley's!

After 18 months, there is now proof that the coordinates were correct :twisted: Time for a new challenge :wink:

Congratulations Mocca :lol:

Congratulations to Mocca for the find. Another one bites the Dust!

Buckleys is really nothing special except for the views, except for the distance, the bush, confusion, lack of information, compounded frustration and exasperation until you get to the end!

Up until now many have left without a result other than the nearby traditionals so the weekend is not a complete waste. Well done Mocca and nswperson for paving the way that Buckleys is hard but not impossible.

The Bronze.

Cooee's Mad Dash has also fallen

Reading about this gauntlet being laid down (surprised that there's actually 3 in Victoria :? ) I checked through each to see where they were.

Cooee's Mad Dash has fallen only 3 weeks ago...

Â…Are great spots. KingFisher and Julius are still in tact (mates of mine in the region have confirmed and I am heading up there soon). IÂ’ll check MinMin on the way “thruÂâ€

Well done Nads. An awesome trip by all accounts.
I just had a look at your photo and it said. This cache is 1299km from your home location. Mate I'm glad your that keen. If I were that far away something would break! Like my sanity.

*Thinks to self*
Then again it would be a nice break from Mix. Mabey it would all even out.

The Bronze.

Belken have been busy in the NW of WA and managed to find ALL of our unfound caches. A really big feat considering most of the caches they went after are REALLY SERIOUSLY REMOTE. Especially this one.

Congratulations Belken. There should be an award for your efforts - I would love to know who much its cost your for fuel on this little effort given that the minimum charge up here is $1.36 :lol:
