Cool cache, thanks

I decided to try for a couple of these on the way back to the ranch. This was first and was a quick find at 18:40 and it was back to journey home.

TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks CATONY.

Quick find today, these plants are not very friendly. TFTC

Arriving from Adelaide and heading for Wollongong, I stopped nearby for a snack and decided to grab a couple of nearby caches. A little bit more cover here and the ubiquitous caching container was soon spotted - but sans magnets. TFTC CATONY!

Nice old tin. Didn't have a pen to sign the log.

2nd for today

Wrote the last entry in logbook. Clever location but magnets are gone

Nice cache in a cool location. Bit scary because of the busy highway but still interesting.

Nice

Couldn't find it look out for the yellow tail spider's good luck

Find the top of a No Stopping sign?
??????

The road to busy

Found 1st June with Irvaky (just updating my app)

6202 Caches Found

Rumbled down the thin black line late last night through the Big Smoke towards the Sunderland Shire and uncharted Territory to try my hand at finding a few caches there in the cool of the dark. Thanks to all who made my evening memorable, Thanks for the adventure

Thanks for the great cache CATONY(8D)

Same as 13, saw no sign.

Reading privious log and as the magnets have been failing search the grown as well and no show for me. Cheers

The first part of our 6-week-journey in Australia took us from Sydney to Melbourne and also led us to this hiding place.
The logbok is full and the magnets were missing....

Thanks for hiding it
globus from Germany

Chatted to a friendly Muggle (who lives opposite).
Greetings from France.
SlackMac.

Current streak: 153
Cache no: 1266

Quick walk and grab while I'm doing the 10000 steps. I think the magnets are doing it too from this one. TFTC

Notebook is close to full

Nice and dry but now not so magnetic. Only a few pages of log left.

Yay! Another find

Book almost full

Log nearly full ..magnets missing.

Australia and a few cache attend this trade for a smiley. Thanks for the nice round, so I could get to know the area better.

Found it easy.

Found it, nice and simple thanks! Greeting from Germany - Moorhelmi

Did this one in the pouring rain I must be mad!!!!!
Magnets are missing replaced cache at bottom of hide.
On to the next.

Found with Geobro. Magnet has lost its attraction for this cache as there was no magnet to be seen.
TFTC

a fairly quick find for the GeoBro and me .. 4th of the day for us on a trip southwards along the highway. TFTC

TFTC

Smelly road alert!

Glue has given away the magnets, they're now stuck on the metal the container was stuck on.

TFTC

Time to finish off the series today and this one was a quick find TFTC

Found it, nice and simple thanks!!

Found it, nice and simple thanks!!

nice!

Nice easy find. A few walk-by muggles about.
No magnets attached to container.
TFTC.

Found with McCharles on a pre Cruise Cache day out. TFTC

Found with Wollaston. Could only see one magnet and it isn't clued to the cache any more.

Heeded the warning in an earlier log about sticking one's head out too far while searching ... he wasn't kidding! Don't think having a cycling helmet on would make much difference.
The magnets have come off again so might need maintenance with some adhesive.
TFTC CATONY ... on to #15.

Quick find. Met some cachers along the way. TFTC.

Met illogic at this one. He had just found the cache and smirkwood and I signed it too. tftc

Ran into Illogic who'd already found it and was signing. Mandalf and I signed it before watching him put it back. TFTC

Phewww, don't poke your head out too far here or it will be taken off by passing speeders.
Found on the ground at GZ could have passed as rubbish but the tell tale araldite marks told where the magnets had been.
Found one magnet still on structure so pressed back into place and replaced in position.
May need a little TLC.

Ironbark.

Reperio at 1600.

After attending an event in Wollongong earlier, I was headed home to Newcastle when I decided to make a short detour to find a few caches in the series. Found this one after a short walk from where I parked the car.

Gratias CATONY.

Fresh find! With Beckatoza

2nd for the night with Geokid1&3.
Easy find at 18:16.

Magnets are missing but still appeared in its location. Found with my Dad. Tftc..

Found another T&B & Silly

Nup nothing

Yes, magnets have detached, but Cache still located.. TFTC

The magnets have detached but th cache is still in place. TFTC CATONY

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Quick easy find tftc

TFTC! We were at last able to tackle this one.

This was an easy park nearby and short walk to GZ, followed by a quick find due to the colour of the cache. We only visit this area rarely so have not been able to walk all of them, but enjoyed what we did complete. Thanks for this hide, the last one of the series for us.

Another early morning find.
TFTC

Currently we are not in a position to do mainanance on our 10000 steps series, can the next finder please dry the container & replace the bag and or log book if they need replacing please, it would be much appreciated.
Cheers from CATONY.

Yebo, on my walk around Sutherland and loftis this speedy cache was still to grab and I walked up it it.
The cache us fine but the magnets are missing, put it back there where I found it but am not sure how long it will survive

I had the day in Sydney for work but that didn't stop me grabbing a few caches in the early morning or after I'd finished my work commitments.

I grabbed these few around Sutherland as I headed up. Having one eye on the many muggles that were out exercising or heading to work just heightened the thrill of the chase.

A nice easy find with 1000's going past at speed.

Thanks

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Was concerned I'd freak out the nearby traffic and cause an accident.

17/18. One more to go in a long day of caching

1 More to go! w/jgk92 TFTC

Tftc

Gotcha !!! TFTC

No, not this time! I did get stuff in my hair and scratches on my arm for my trouble though.

Another quick find on our caching tour through part of the Shire.

Quick easy find although I did miss it on the first sweep through. And yes - spiky bush!

Tftc

Spiky bush!

Reaching in to search for this cache was intense, glad it was a straight road. TFTC found with Percita.

Not really sure what passing motorists thought we were doing, luckily Gentleman Assassin spotted this one and managed a quick grab! TFTC

Geoson was out caching with Cooriengah today when this one was found.

Up from Canberra visiting the family for the holidays...so why not take advantage of top weather and spend the day on a geomission around The Shire?

Next stop on this great series around the good 'ol Shire was this one After parking the car nearby and making the short stroll up to GZ, I had the cache in hand in seconds. YES! But then had to walk off with it when a muggle neighbour opened his gate lol. Waited a few minutes and then returned to make the replace after the muggle had gone. Extra fun with all the cars wizzing past!

Thanks for yet another, CATONY . Now on to the next....

#701.2 0950hrs the cycling duo from Jindy (without M) experienced the blast of wind from cars passing by your head when retrieving and replacing.

Tftc.

On Boxing day, I found all of the 10000 steps caches. Had an amazing day, and a lot of walking
Thanks for a great series! Best regards from Denmark

Picked a 33 degree day to come do this trail. Easy find. Tftc

found it with Dogboy_56 on a 33 degree day took us about 2mins to find it

Quick find. SL TFTC. Greetings from Arizona.

Another quick find this afternoon. Took a while waiting for the local muggles to walk past to return the cache to its spot

Walked up to my GZ and couldn't see it. Then looked the other way and spotted it. Geomum was still fiddling around with her phone which said 32m!! Thanks CATONY.

Decided to take the long way home to Canberra from my work visit to the big smoke. Saw the 10k steps and wished I had time to walk instead of driving by. But still a very enjoyable side trail.

Cute find.

TFTC CATONY,
What a great afternoon to undertake the 10,000 steps series. Attacked it with Muggle friends and nana nel. nana nel was poking around with a pen and allowed me to see it before she did.
Visited a group of trackables to get some excercise.

Found with Wazza9 TFTC

Awww yeeeee!

Easy to grab with bushes blocking full view from cars

A quick drive by find on the way to the airport for a pickup.

Cheers

After doing my 10000 steps on the Royal National Park tracks today, despite the rain and Audley Weir being closed I was able to grab this on the way home.
Walked back from #15 and made a quick find.
