Geocache Description:

Red Ochre Caching wishes to invite all Geocachers to meet in Dubbo, Central Western New South Wales over the NSW Queens Birthday Weekend for the TOD-5 “Mission Impossible”. This 24 Hour geo-event is designed as a family orientated social and semi competitive caching weekend in and around the Dubbo area.

“The Mission”, should you choose to accept it is to “Trek” to “The Town” and pit your wits against the fiendish “Bag Woman” and her trusty “Dead Squad”. So pack your bags and point your “Wheels” in our direction and enter your own personal “Run for the Money” and “Mastermind” the “Recovery” of the fabled “Boomerang”. “The Question” is: Are “The Contenders” up to “The Challenge”? “The Choice” is yours. This year we are inviting teams to dress up in their best spy outfits. This will add to the experience over the four major missions of the weekend. The posted coordinates will lead you to “The Vault” and you can than seal “The Deal”.

Accommodation is available in the grounds of “The Bunker” for the reasonable price of $5 per person (children and adults) per night. Council regulations do not allow sleeping in the hall. Alternative acommodation for those not wishing to get wet or camp at The Bunker is available from any of these local motels

Equipment you may need includes:

  • Torch
  • GPS
  • Digital image capture device (camera), either stand alone or in a phone/PDA etc
  • Umbrella and/or Raincoat
  • Spoon
  • Towel
  • Dry clothes (it rains on long weekend in Dubbo, particularly on Geocachers)
  • Sense of humour
  • Camping gear if required
  • Tech equipment optional

    Please bring printouts/gpx files of any caches that you wish to attempt while in the area. There will be some cache pages available in hard and soft copy but the more prepared you are the easier it will be for you.

    You are allowed to briefly break your anonymity by posting a "Will Attend" log and indicate numbers.

    There will be opportunities for optional additional missions in the form of set caches with bonus points awarded. Should you have any spare time during the 24 hours of The Mission feel free to cache around Dubbo to further your quest for the fabled “Boomerang”.

    Spys are to assemble at The Bunker by 1200 for further instructions. Registrations will be conducted between 1100 and 1200.
