I was speaking with the owner of the property where this one is (I have a property out this way) and he found the cache and took it. He said he didn’t want people coming out looking around near his property. I told him I would pass this on. Suggest you either relocate or archive.

In Queanbeyan for some repairs. With a rental in hand I had some time to collect caches this side of the ACT. I drive around to collect some of the roadside caches with the occasional short walk.
This cache: A quick find along the way. Water in the container and log relatively wet.
Thank you ALL7 for putting the cache out and maintaining it.

I wasn't really sure whether I'd get away for this caching trip, but in the end I bit the bullet and headed out for a few days through the southern NSW countryside. The roads were a minefield of potholes, fuel prices were off the chart and nearly every cache had some form of water damage from the recent big wet but that didnt detract from the fun.
Thanks to all the CO's for contributing to my caching finds on this 2-day trip. Apologises for not writing something unique about each find. TFTC

#11717 - 9:57:00 AM; Another mission with Sol de lune today to top up our daily cache tally. Met up in Queanbeyan before heading out along the Captains Flat Road and a couople of its tributaries. Managed 14 from 14 today and all were found in good order. recent rains made things a little slippery in a couple of places, but we made it throu unscathed in just under an hour after leaving our rendezvous point. Logs signed LL & sdl or vice versa. TFTC ALL7
Another run out this way with LuckyL10n to fill in calendar days. No problems with any of the caches today and all were found without issue....one or two sneaky ones, but all good.

Catching up on some very late logs.
Day 3 of our planned assault on Canberra with the same group consisting of The Drovers, Phetlern, Micaparamedic,
Alansee GoodLook, and ourselves.
We had another busy but very enjoyable day chasing series caches and happily we found all we were looking for with no DNF's
We all had a fantastic day and would like to write more but as we have said when you do so many in such a short time it is hard to remember individual hides.
This in no means takes away from our appreciation to the CO's for all the effort, time and expense they have done to let us find so many caches.
As per the other two days we signed as "The Mob" to save room in the log books.
Many thanks /// for the hides and the fun.
Wow - we so lucky to be able to explore so many different areas of the Aussie landscape following our passion for the geo game, particularly in the company of Alansee, Good Look, Micaparamedic, Team Crackers and The Drovers. (For economy of space logs of caches we found are stamped "The Mob"
Another fabulous day of fun and friendship.
Thanks ALL7 for placing so many caches on the gameboard, which players enjoy finding.

We stamped the logs as "The Mob" to save space in the logs - today there were 6 teams caching together: Team Crackers, The Drovers, Phetlern, Alansee, the lovely micaparamedic and myself.
Most of the cache finds were straight forward, yet a couple stumped us. A few were located where it was difficult to safely pull the car off of the road, but we made it work with some creative maneuvers.
2020 was not a great year, and the beginnings of 2021 have also been tricky - so when it looked like the various borders would be open again (without quarantine restrictions), a trip that was planned at the Clear Waters mega was able to occur.
Adelaide, Victoria, NSW and Canberra - a decent drive, filled with various caching activities including Adventure Labs.
Several days caching with the awesome Team Crackers, gorgeous The Drovers, fab Phetlern, cool Alansee, and the lovely micaparamedic.
We laughed, sang to a vast variety of songs and chatted - almost non-stop! [^] We piled into cars and had such a fun time. Despite the light showers, windy conditions at times, we also had sunny days to enjoy caching in.
A sincere thanks to ALL7 for placing these caches, including the enjoyable little series.

The third day of caching logging as THE MOB. Once more we appreciated the CO's efforts in putting them out. The weather on all 3 days has been great for caching.
Caching as 'The Mob' - 6 teams made up of Team Crackers, Phetlern, Micaparamedic,
Alansee GoodLook, and ourselves.
Day 3 - Concentrating on trails, and a few nearby caches.
A few caches were replaced, and some logs replaced due to being wet.
Thanks to all the CO's for an entertaining day.

Cache 6771 on 17 Nov 2020.
After some late night work, I had the morning off as compensation, which was fortunate, as I needed to get a few caches today. I decided to make a start on the caches along the road to Captains Flat, which were well overdue to be found so Bobl27 and I drove out here at a leisurely time of the morning. All caches found reasonably quickly and in accordance with hints, when I could access them! Boy is the CF raid busy though! I will be back for sure next week to make further inroads into these cache series’.
Few options at GZ , so took a minute to locate the right one!
Thanks ALL7 for the cache and the fun!

Like a previous logger said, there a lots of rocks to chose from. Pleased to find the right rocks and sign the log. TFTC ALL7
With an RDO from work today, sun was shining, and the temp was rather pleasent, so I decided to go get some caches out towards Captains Flat. Picked up a decent haul being I was caching on my own, had 1 DNF and 2 unattempted (1 due to the muggle across the road who wouldnt take his eyes on me and my car, so thought it was best to move along, and the other was due to the terrain, being alone, wasnt willing to risk it).
Thanks for the hides ALL7 Another handful completed.

After being cooped up all week with work it was that time again today for some fresh air, although maybe a little too fresh. Told the CO of our plans so she joined us to do a maintenance run as well, replaced all logs with fresh ones except for the ones that looked like they had been replaced recently. Managed to get them all done before the rain and sleet set in.
Lots of laughs and fun while out on the trail.

It’s a leap day so we decided to make the the most of all things caching.. yay!!! Out with GLISS! on the hunt for a cache of every size, a cache of every type and a total of a hundred.. well if we can pull it off. Thanks to all the cache owners who helped make this an awesome day. Thanks for the cache.
I awoke to a bright blue sky for the first time in weeks, so I quickly planned a morning out caching. Knowing the risk of these caches being burnt if fires hit this area, I decided they would be a good target even though I only had a short time available. All caches were found and logs signed mostly as SG.
Early start for Wazza9 and I to cache before the heat, plenty of smoke to breath in. Found 98 today with 2 DNF's, completed some maintenance along the trails, adding additional log sheets to containers, replacing some containers for the CO. The temperature reached 46 degrees when we stopped caching and had lunch in Bungendore in the air con. bring on the . Most were quick finds, some a few meters away, stamped the log and replaced. A big thanks to the CO for placing these trails & caches.
Tftc,
Today's 98 finds will place me a little under 800 away from making 10,000 finds at 10 years of Geocaching on the 28th May 2020.
A decision was made to have a go at this and after all that has been achieved this year, there is still 5 months to get there and a few Power trails will help.
The placement of all were good when you do the caches on the side of the road in the direction you are traveling.

Of the 241 caches attempted, 225 were "Finds" and 16 were DNFs. All caches in good condition but generic log due to the sheer amount of how they blend into each other after a while. TFTC!
This weekend represents The Stumble's annual Canberra trip. We travelled from Goulburn through to Queanbeyan via Tarago (food and service is really good at the pub) and Bungendore.
Out of 241 caches attempted, 225 were "Finds" and 16 were "DNFs". All caches, unless otherwise stated were in good condition. Cache locations varied but those prickly trees were the WORST!! We did encounter a few unique hides which we have awarded FPs for.
We left a lot of swag along the way for the kidlets and deposited a couple of TBs that needed moving on.
To all the CO, TFTC and the (at times) challenges in finding them. Apologies for the generic logs but 241 caches blend in to each other after a while!!

Found 15:38 23/11/19 with TheTrueCornDogs. Thank you ALL7 for the cache and bringing me to this location.
Rumour has it caches out this way may soon be archived (?), better get to it then. A great day to be out, catching also a little vitamin D along the way. Managed a bakers dozen before time for me ran out, families duties call.
All caches found quickly and without issue. Any specific details added to the end of log. TNLNSL TFTC

After being away on holidays it was great to be back in Australia and out picking up a few with StrangeTrousers who is part of the “Kayak Cachers” team. We are so lucky here with great places to go and views to enjoy whilst also getting those find numbers up. I loved that there were flowers out by the sides of the road as we were picking up our finds – nice to come back to the Canberra region and know that spring is in the air and the warm weather is on the way. Thank you AII7 for your trails.

#5650 28th for today
After a long break, the "Kayak Cachers" team was reunited and out bagging a bundle today. Absolutely perfect conditions, not too warm and still. All7's trails out about Captains Flat Rd, (a place I am quite familiar with as I own a series along it) were a great place to be today. We managed to find all but two and we think that one of those was MIA based on prior logs. Some great hides today, nothing too difficult, but the occasional challenge.
Thanks ALL7

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away... O319 decided on an afternoons Geocaching
Striking out from his top secret base (in Jerrabomberra) he targets the Lolly and Star Wars trails. During the battle, Rebel spies managed to only out smart him with only two DNF's. TFTC

Found on a fast afternoon of caching with sebass14. Decided to attempt the caches at the beginning of the CFT. After pulling up safely with S14's navigation help, each cache was parked at for as safely as we could and all were found pretty quickly in good condition; unless otherwise specified. This area was beautiful to drive through on a lovely day for caching; some with nice little views. TFTC ALL7!
Nice series on a very fresh Canberra winters day. Thank we had a great afternoon.
#7182. I have been in Canberra for several days picking up caches before heading to the Mega event near Wollongong tomorrow. Lots of interesting challenge caches in this city was a magnet for a challenge cache junkie. Heading out on the Captains trail today. I need a few bulk finding days on this trip. Planning to have a few hours out here after lunch before I need to drive to Goulburn for my next pit stop. Back to the main road again. Enjoying the drive out in the countryside. Much rather be caching in the rural areas than along city streets. Off down another side road. A quick find here. Haven't seen Hart Solo before. I wonder if he is a relative of Han? Signed the logbook and replaced the cache as found. Thanks for hiding the cache here ALL7. Greetings from New Zealand.
I've enjoyed today, it was a very nice day, the drive was interesting, and many of the caches were in interesting spots. I had no trouble finding any of them. Some of the logs have been wet and are now dry, and several are getting reasonably full. I don't think a maintenance run is needed. Thanks for the caches and the series.
Number 22 of 26 today.

You know you're a cacher when you're willing to drive for hours to find a few small containers, just to leave your name within.
It was 5°C outside when i woke up this morning after having slept in my car at a bush camping site. I made myself a coffee and continued on with my catching trails by 5am. Lots of fog hanging around.

First day of the long weekend and I was off for an afternoon geomission to finish off the rest of the ALL7 series off Captain's Flat Rd and a few other randoms as well
All caches were quick finds apart from a couple of tricky ones, and had another fun drive around the area collecting the caches!

Out for a bit of trail bashing. I wonder what the days total will be? TFTC.
A drive in the country with JohnnyBoyACT. 130 plus caches for the day, a lot easier to do when there are two of us. TFTCs.
My second power trail day with Marmaduke Rothschild. An easy haul of 140 caches for the day - easy because I was the driver today and only did an occasional one. TFTC and the series.

OZ Mega 2019. Clear Waters Queanbeyan. Day 8. After the mornings events we headed out for a bunch of caches along the captains flat road. I went with MinnieK and Fitzy_1965. It was fun to get to a line of caches again and the very heavy rain at the end caused a bit of added interest, especially when we came across a river over the road. It was good we were on the correct side to get home.
Thanks.

Fitzy_1965, Albida33, GSC2000 & death_killer & I decided to head out for a bit more caching after attending an event at the War Memorial.
We raced the rain but didn't win.....ending up having to take one of the furthest caches we got to back to camp for the night as the road was flooded after a hail storm.
All caches were found quickly and we signed as MK, F65, A33 & G2K or MFGA.

Attending the Clear Water 2019 mega this Easter in Queanbeyan. Apologies for the generic log but we have found too many to compose individual logs. Many thanks to all the cache owners for their caches, which have been exceptional in their maintenance I have had only 1 dnf and that was only because I was not going to make a tree climb without seeing where the cache was. The vast majority of caches have had very good coordinates. Along with useful hints. TFTC
In town for the Mega event at Queanbeyan, today I teamed up with My good mate Roostaman, we had a massive day out on the trails after tackling a few caches in town that were on the solved list.

I have found this cache during the Clear Water Mega or in the weeks leading up to the Mega that was held I Queanbyean, New South Wales during the Easter Long Weekend of 2019. Due to the very large volume of caches and very long hours this is he first chance that I have had to Log all my finds,
This Mega Event will go down as one of the best mega events ever. I went on several Geocaching Tours, Swapped over 200 Pathtags, Bought Some Geocoins, Made some New Friends, Cached with Old Friends. During the Clear Water Mega I managed to get 8 FTF (as of 2359 on the 20/4/19. I am hoping to get more FTFs in the next few days. I’m sad to see the Mega ending but I’m excited for my next adventure in Hawaii for a few weeks after the mega ends. . Thanks for all the caches and sorry for the generic log for this cache but with over 200 finds in the last few weeks it would be too hard to write a different one for each cache. A very big thank you to all the CO’s for your caches. I also donated 25 pathtags to the Girl Guides to thank them for their hard work. Had fun being the Clear Water Yowie for over 7 hours on the 19th April also.
My name will not appear in the All7 caches as I helped her put out hundreds of her caches. All other logs have been signed DSD or Darksidedan or Darkside depending on the size of the cache.
I have included one of the Geocaching poems that I have written. I hope that anyone reading it likes it
Geocache Poem
By DARKSIDEDAN
My endless search goes on and on
Looking for treasures of every kind
Always chasing just one more find
Putting past DNF’s out of my mind
I step out into the world outside,
Seeking what is hidden from me
What size, shape or form will it be?
Only time will tell, I can’t wait to see
Will I find my prize at the end?
I will search in the failing light and cold
Filling with despair having looked everywhere
Where is this thing that gives my life pleasure?
Looking all around from every angle
I read the logs and check the hint
I curse out loud as I walk in circles
Screaming the bloody thing it not there
As time flies by and I fail to see,
Never once stopping to realize
It always been there before my eyes
No need for sorrow, there’s the Geocache.
***** I am currently writing very detailed logs because of a challenge provided by Project-GC called "The Author". This Badge challenges geocachers to write logs with an average one hundred words or more in each log. As of the 20th of April 2019 my average is 99 words per log, which seems close to the 100 words per log target. However given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 100 words for a long period of time to get my average up. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After more than 5000 aches (which includes all cache finds up and including today I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task very soon. Progress has been better than anticipated.

As of the 20th of April 2019 my average is 99 words per log, which seems close to the 100 words per log target. However given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 100 words for a long period of time to get my average up. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After more than 5000 aches (which includes all cache finds up and including today I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task very soon. Progress has been better than anticipated.
Myself, DSD and J+J.au were present in the placing of these caches by ALL7!
We had a full day out on the roads, with everyone assigned a job at certain intervals including adding logs to caches, picking suitable containers for each hide, agreeing on a hiding spot and the CO herself was very quick at taking down coordinates on her GPS and logging them all by hand on the good ol' pen and paper between caches!
I had the pleasure of adding my own little twist to a couple of ALL7's hides, I am sure you can guess which ones had my influence Thanks for letting me add some flare to the trail, I am sure it will make for good breaks between the easy ones!
We had a successful day all up, and great to see so many people logging finds on them already. Sorry for the late logs, just catching up now with this busy period of time juggling work, Clear Waters mega and Easter.
I should add, that my name is not in the logs for this long powertrail, as the caches were made up on the spot and we placed them in quick succession. However all party's present can confirm we were all there, and survived Dan's crazy driving...! I think some of the hides will also show my colours if you know me well! We also took a group photo at Apple Box Flat which was the big turn-around point.
Thanks!

Down in Queanbeyan for the Mega at Clearwaters. Flying through a power trail. Tfth
Found this cache along with many others on Easter Saturday 2019 while attending the Clear Water Mega Event. TFTC.
Found this one over a year ago now, while travelling down to the Mega Event with Webguy. (Yes, I’ve been very slack!)
I've found some time to sort my logging out, but unfortunately I'll have to post generic logs as it has been so long.
My sincerest apologies to the cache owner.
Thanks for the cache.
