Geocache Description:


The GOM's™ (Grumpy Old Mates) are allegedly a bunch of mysterious cachers. The GOM's have a keen interest in puzzle caches, especially if there is an element of adventure involved in finding them. For this virtual, you will be traveling far and wide often like one of the members does (ie the ISLO - Interstate Liaison Officer). The minutes of the inaugural GOMAGM Feb 2020 can be found here which includes the history of the GOM's formation.

The GOM's do like to get out on the water (as it's much easier for social distancing or what we called being anti social pre Covid). There is a GOM official vessel, the MV Grumpy and it is currently in a secret location in QLD. A recent trip out the back of Townsville was taken to see mascot on the GOM's profile page and started this whole virtual. 

Your task, (if you can be bothered) is to visit the 3 Disappointing waypoints the GOM's actually had a chuckle about. Take a disappointed/grumpy frowny :( face holding your GPSr at each way point. For those who are not photogenic like the GOM's or just shy a grumpy sad face on a piece of paper with your caching name, GPSR in view, and also the landmark of the waypoint. Prior photo's to publishing with be scorned and do not count.

Bunus points if you have a boat and can include it in the Lake Disappointment Photo.
