Good Day,

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Pike says to Dale..."My mate came off his motorbike today". "Oh really," says Dale. "Yes, he has two broken arms, one broken leg and is blind in one eye", replies Pike. "Bloody hell!" Says Dale, "No wonder he came off!"

TFTC! Definitely need to widen search.

Out on a beautiful May day with the family, aiming to get 100 caches in one day...wish us luck! Go team! Cache #58

This morning we started caching at the junction of the Newell Highway and Pikedale Road and during the day, we gradually worked our way south into Palgrave Road, Loloma Road and Mount Janet Road. We started at about 8:45am and finished the caches on our list as the sun set. We enjoyed the variety of caches and the scenery along the way.

When we didn't find anything at GZ, we gradually widened our search area and finally found the cache out in the open about 9m from GZ. The cache and contents were in good condition. We left the cache where we found it but added some natural camo as interim protection. Thanks 2 Shadows for the cache and others you have placed in the area.

Wow, what a series! It was a grand chase in an area I haven't been before. This was the last one I had time for so TFTC

Had a fantastic day out with my husband as we left the kids at home for the sole purpose of me being able to pick up my largest number of caches in a day. The day didn't go quite to plan due to the large volume of water making us not to confident to drive along the soft sided road. However we saw some amazing animals along the way including two snakes, thankfully the red belly black snake was dead. I particular enjoyed the animal series, but appreciate all cache owners for placing and maintaining these for the geocaching community. I apologise for the generic log.

Tftc. This is a late log. Went on a caching trip back on August 28/29 2016. Did over 350 caches over the weekend and only managed to log the rest of it now. The girls took me out for a bday weekend caching. Found with chasing adventures and Thehinds of the Triple threat crew

Day 2

A wonderful weekend away in Stanthorpe resulting in 374 finds, including 22 mystery (Stanthorpe Apple) and 1 Earthe cache. I hoped to log each individually as I usually would but the tyranny of time prevents me from continuing to try and achieve this goal. A big thank you to all the Stanthorpe CO's. We said many times we wish we had more consolidated trails in Brisbane. TFTC

Found on our second trip to the area in daylight. TFTC

Decided to do a few of these caches on our way back home. Thanks to all who placed caches out and maintain them. cheers from ozglory. sl

Gotcha this time 13 for today number 100 overall

Great parking to grab this one. It's finally sunny here after being very misty/foggy for the morning.

Would be very cautious if I took on these caches in summer.

TFTC 2shadows.

DNF - I had a really good look for this one in all of the places I thought I would find it, but unfortunately I could not find it. It is good to see that Kingfisherau found it about an hour and a half after I tried to find it, so it is still there, just not in the places where I looked. Thanks for the cache the cache maker, I will give it a go when I return to the area to finish of the rest of this power trail.

One of the many caches we did on our Pike-Granite & Rockland Roads loop !
Big Thanks to All the Cachers who placed them All !!
Signed logbook 25/04/2016 5:30 pm and replaced all as found. This one had us tricked for a bit !

Couldn't find it

Found with MalDawg

TFTC no luck this time

WillPunkey 7, the 2 yr old and I set off from Toowoomba for an afternoon of caching, the aim was to complete a some of the power trail that StephLego, the kids and I started a few months ago. Both kids loved the afternoon and made some swaps along the way.
Some of the caches were challenging but with the help of WillPunkeys young eyes we ended up finding all that we attempted along the trail. Even with the toddler tagging along we made good progress, completing 45 caches in around 3.5 hours before we headed back to the Hwy to grab some more.

thanks 2 shadows

I couldn't find it for the life of me. Damn, how good does the sky look out here.
A big branch had fallen some time ago which has been chopped up with quite a bit of flattened grass around. I searched everywhere I could but nothing. It's probably still there somewhere.
Thanx anyway 2 shadows

A return visit to Stanthorpe to hit the geocaching trails again. All good here.

TFTC

Kate Stewart and I had 50 minutes here to do as many as we could - this was the ninth!
We were really speeding up here
We had a great time, Thank you!

Found by "D" as we spent a second afternoon finding some of the many caches nearby. Signed log. TNLN Thanks to all the cache owners who have taken their time to place so many caches in the area.

We set aside today to challenge ourselves to find at least 150 caches in a day. Before last Mega in Stanthorpe, we had cleared the middle section of the AS Series, so this challenge meant starting at the bottom, then later moving to the top section, then back down the highway towards Stanthorpe until our target was reached. Apologies for this generic log: unless noted below the caches were in good order and available for future hunters - in some cases this meant stopping awhile longer to replace a log, and/or clean out the cache.

Found at 3:48pm on 8th December, 2015. TFTC.

I had driven down from Brisbane for a quick day out caching. The idea to grab as many as i can along the power trails here. The day turned into a mission, with my GPS deciding to impersonate a brick, leaving me to use the phone, so lots of missed caches and backtracking. Great day out, lots of caches, sun, Kangaroos, sun, other flora, sun and more caches. Thanks for putting in the trail.

Our second day of the long weekend trip to Warwick and I left the wife resting in the Motel and headed out for a few more caches on the power trails,

The trouble is trying to remember individual caches when you do power trails.

Thanks for putting out these caches for our enjoyment.

Smilie #2958

At a bit of a loose end so we decided a day just north of Stanthorpe, to clear a few caches we had no signal for on our last few trips south, was in order.
Apologies if some logs are a bit generic but we converted 95 to smilies today!

A nice quick & easy find here.
Signed & replaced as found.

9 of 95 today!

We travelled down from brisbane to Tenterfield today to sign the log for the "Average Challenge". Not ones to let an opportunity go to waste, we spent the balance of the day finding some great caches in the Stanthorpe area we missed during the Mega. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache 2 shadows

Found on an outing with Geoson. TFTC and congratulations for the effort put into this cache.

We decided to head over here from Perth WA as the weather is still nice and warm . Decided to head out and hit some power trails ... We manage to find 91 caches with two DNF,s in 6 hours . Most caches were found with out to much searching ..... TFTC

Back on the Pikedale trail, after the CITO Event having done a few yesterday on my way into town.
Enjoying the trail and a quick park and grab.

Found at 0830. Took an early morning trip ro Stanthorpe from Brisbane to attend an event in the afternoon and grabed some caches in the region while we had the opportunity. Nice area. TFTC.

Really like all the little creature caches on the Pikedale Road run. Quick, easy find! TFTC Weather is beautiful and cool for caching Still caching in the district after the Mega which was a blast

MEGA is now over and after staying back to assist the crew clean up the grounds and facilities I now have Tuesday to myself to do a clean-up run on the way home.
With a storm overnight the roads were a pleasure to travel and I soon rounded up the remaining caches along this trail. An interesting drive, , some unexpected sights and the finding of the way to Utopia.

A great time had by myself & Just-Lookin around this part of the power trail area.

Good caches and some tricky hides, thanks to the cache owners for the fun we had.

QLD Mega trip 2015 with Sol de Lune. On this almost 400km road trip we drove from Canberra to Stanthorpe caching in all the towns along the way with mostly great success. Around the Mega there were heaps of caches to be done including a few power trails. Despite the weather we got all of the planned caches done.

Day eleven took us back north to do more of the trails. We ere joined by Rapidlywild and SpecimenX for the morning. After a creative drive to get to our starting point we powered through all of the remaining animals by lunch. Then it was back to town to head our different ways. Sold De Lune and I headed out to the Bald rock road to do the remaining caches out that way. Thanks.

Found it with Team FIN [kapeka & laalaa]

We had fun with caching few weeks here in Australia ( Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and Australian Capital Territory ). Lots of geocaches and many sort of them too. We saw awesome places, weather was good all the time and people were friendly and polite. Caches were pretty similar like in our home country. Of course there were some exeptions. Nice and huge country!

Greetings from Finland!

Marvelous holiday with laalaa in Australia. Wonderful land and today sun is shining. We had fun.
Greetings from Finland.
Thanks for the cache.

After the Mega was done and dusted, we headed for Warwick with iluvtrekking to complete the power trail and collect a few other smileys along the way. Thanks 2 shadows

with red dwarfs and ned and mrs Kelly. having a ball at the Stanthorpe mega. gracias 2 shadows.

Thanks for some fine hunting today. My 2015 Oz trip was very fruitful. indeed. TFTC.

Found during my visit to Stanthorpe for the Qld. Mega Event, in the company of a couple of great pals including the legendary Currykev from the U.K. Thanks for the cache

Found with Albida33, Rapidlywild and SpecimenX while attending the Mega.

We all had a number of unfound caches out in this area so teamed up in one car and headed out to grab them. A good day with all caches found......a total of about 120 for this part of the day.

Thanks for the cache and adding to the fun of our Mega trip.....

Found with richliink on day four of our Mega 2015 Stanthorpe adventure.
Today was the big day, the day of the CITO, the Flash Mob and the closing ceremony. Time to say goodbye for tomorrow we are on the road to Warwick.
Thanks 2 shadows for your cache, which added to our fun.

Today specimenX and myself had a goal, we wanted to finish the powertrails. We had organised to meet up with Sol De Lune and Albida who are also from Canberra and with the 4 of us loaded up at 8am, off we went in order to hit as many as possible.

We had managed to knock over just over 100 caches in just under 4 hours and soon after, we were in a position where SDL and ALB had found ones we were missing. So we were returned to the Mega site to jump in our geomobile and from there we went seperate ways. With the very first cache collected at 0850, the ver last cache collected at 2122 with a ~2 hour break, we managed 226 cache finds in a 10 hour caching period. This is our biggest daily achievement to date !!!

Some caches were easy, some a little more difficult, all in all, no DNF's to record and the Stanthorpe powertrails are now officially COMPLETE

The weather was nice to us today and the roads remained dry enough to get around without any issues.

Thanks 2 shadows for placing this cache for us to make a find on

Up from Canberra and found with Rapidlywild on a two week geomission around the Gold Coast and, of course, for the MEGA

Today's plan for us was to complete the powertrails we had left around Stanthorpe and to nab any randoms along the way. A plan was hatched with our fellow ACT geomates, Sol de Lune and Albida33, the night before to join them at 8am to see how many we could knock off.

With just over 100 caches nabbed in under 4 hours, we were up to the point where Sol and Albida had already found the ones we had yet to get. So with that we all returned to Mega GZ to freshen up, then RW and I continued on to knock over the remaining caches we had left to collect on the power trails.

All up we made 226 finds in 10hrs-not a bad effort I reckon and it made for our biggest day yet!

Thanks to all of the CO's who placed the caches for us to find on a most enjoyable day. As a powertrail co-owner, I can appreciate the work involved in setting them up!

Good to come back through after the Mega and get some of the series. TFTC.

TFTC. Recovered and returned. We decided to stop here on the way home from the QLD MEGA to break up the drive with a bike ride down this country road. The ups and serenity of the country scenery made this little ride worthwhile!

This was the last DNF I had on this trail and it is good to make it a smilie.

Day five for us at Stanthorpe, attending the Mega event. The previous day was very wet and up until today we really had not got many numbers. Today we finish up the Stan puzzles (has taken us 3 days to find these, been taking it reaaaaaaal slow). Finally with a break in the wet weather, we tackle the trails finishing the day with 202 finds and no DNF's ??
Thanks to all CO for your efforts in putting out these caches.
