Logs
Day 2 on the hunt for Magic Mushrooms with StealthSeeker.Found bits and pieces of a log. Looks like it's been caught up in road works.
TftcI set out to do more of this trail. After recent weather, some of the edges were a bit soft. And patches of mud towards the caches. Though today's weather was sunny. It was all going well until a flat tire finished the day. Love all the ones that were found today. Most logs were quick to find. Most were still safe and dry. Find #13Almost overlooked it because of the overgrowth
Thanks earthly65 for arranging this cache which has enhanced our enjoyment of the area.
On the hunting trail with Liz and Bruce on a 2024 New Years adventure. A quick find here. Its a great day for caching. TFTC earthly65
tftc, Despite the temp of 36 degrees, Made a start on this series today. As we only have a few days we will focus on those closest to our camp at Glenreagh rec reserve.
We throughly enjoyed doing this series. You have gone to so much trouble in creating such a wonderful variety of themed caches and thus making geocaching such an enjoyable activity. TFTC.
Thanks Richary! I know I will be looking for these classics next I’m in an op-shop!

If my name was Grabbily I would potentially say that this cache is bad. However that is not my name therefore this cache is great!
First crack at the Shroom trail, heaps of cute and clever designs, really appreciate the time and effort to set this power trail up.
Very clever craftsmanship for this one

An unexpected trip to northern NSW allowed me time to grab a few caches along the way. Opted to have a day dedicated just for caching on my way home so I took to the P/T’s around Coffs. Thanks to the CO’s for your hides.

We set out from Woolgoolga up into the hills today with the Magic Mushroom and WoopiBucca trails in our sites. The roads were good despite all the recent rain and we enjoyed the forest drive.
There were quite a variety of hides, in both size and design. Many of the Magic Mushroom caches had lots of time put into the containers which was both entertaining and appreciated. Quite a number of logs were wet as you would expect with all the rain but others were pristine. It never ceases to surprise us how some containers work well while others don't. The country was at times tough, particularly where the lantana is taking hold
We awarded quite a number of favourites on the Mushroom trail and probably should have given more, but we were on a mission.
Our thanks to the CO/s for a great effort to establish a trail with a difference.
Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache earthly65.

We're in town for a long weekend, and with Mother's Day festivities tomorrow, were given a free day to explore more widely today, so we decided on a drive along the Magic Mushrooms.
We managed 48 out of 49 searches in cool conditions, with some occasional spits of rain. We had no difficulty in our Forester, but some areas at present would prove difficult for a 2WD for sure.
Caches along our route we haven't logged had difficult parking, so we left for another trip.
We enjoyed the variety of hides, good coordinates and great hints - thanks to all involved fo your efforts!
Another fantastic hint..... cheers....

Found today with my Dad while on a big cache drive around the area, We ended up getting 55 GC caches and 1 GA cache today. Had a nice time driving around the area, on the nice tracks and also the muddy 4WD tracks.
TFTC!

We returned today to find the caches we didn’t see on our opened map yesterday. Lesson learned and we’ll try to remember to enlarge the area of our map in the future so we don’t miss those caches that are along the bend in the road that doesn’t appear on our screen. Found this cache with no problem and thank you Richary for this one.
Cheers and Happy New Year!

Thanks for hiding this cache for our enjoyment earthly65

logging late so sorry about the brevity of words. The water truck came past as I was signing the log, we waved and kept on. Glad I parked in a wider spot on the road here.
Day 2
The remainder of the much awaited mushroom trails were finaly published. Arrangements were made with pprass that we would make a camping trip out of it & we camped at Glenreagh for a few days.
This would give us time to find & appreciate the many varities of mushrooms hidden.
The weather was perfect for geocaching. The roads in the forest in some sections were being graded at the time. Good for a car maybe not on a bike.
What a huge job to make & maintain this trail, & like normal mushrooms they just continued to grow & evrybody wanted to get in on the action.
Thankyou earthly65 for placing this cache.

Found at 9:13 AM GAFF1 in the company of DiMorgan.
This was an unusual "mushroom". Resembled one of those Japanese King mushrooms - or maybe it was just a white cup

Today we set out on a mission to find as many magic mushrooms as possible, the weather was perfect and we managed to find 55 with no DNF's.
Great to see such a large variety of creative and unique designs.
Thanks to all the contributors and thanks to earthly65 for hiding all the caches.
