Logs
A weekend trip away with Mrs Bundy to grab this cache, unfortunately did not lead to success. I think in the 6 or so years since the cache has been placed, at least one, and probably more, bushfire and hazard reduction burns have been through the area. One has gone through in the last month or so, going by the new green buffel grass.
We spent a good 1 1/2 hrs at GZ, with us both searching, lining up sheds and attennas, trying to pick out individual major trees from Google Earth imagery, ect, to try to locate the cache, but all was in vain. The best we found was a piece of rusty, burnt tin, that may, or may not have been part of the container. Nothing definate.
The area was fantastic, well worth the long trip in, just for the seclusion, and the knowledge there probably wasnt another person within 15 to 20 km, when we camped at the Rotary shelter campsite. Certainly there were no other people camped within the whole Mt Moffat section of the park that evening.
Even though no FTF for us, it still gets a multiple thumbs up.
Cheers
