Day 1 on the hunt for Magic Mushrooms with StealthSeeker.SS overshot the mark on this one but soon corrected.Great container.Got tripped up on vines and sticks on the way back to the car
While camping at Emerald Beach for a few days with my geodog Scruffy , We had to get out and look for a few caches ...Container was full of water, so placed upside down. .. TFTC ..
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 #10This one was impressive but very wet.
This is such an awesome cache, despite my initial inability to find it. When I saw the log clue, I automatically went for the massive log here, walking straight past the correct log! Signed and poured out the mushroom soup This ended up being my last cache of the day, as it's a hot day and I've run out of water! Thanks for your huge effort with this series earthly65
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
Thanks earthly65 for arranging this cache which has enhanced our enjoyment of the area.
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.
What’s cooking? Mushroom soup! The cache made up for me being scared once again! You must persist. What view jo11111? Drives off, THAT view! I stopped for a break here and still drove passed the view! TFTC, left some swag

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.
Sadly the lid wasn’t on the pot

A favourite for a great container.
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!
Oh... *that* log. We could have DNFd this rather large/colourful cache.....

TFTC!

A big mushroom... awesome. Built in retriever... priceless! Loved this cache. TFTC earthly65.
Great hide. Deserves a favourite point. Thanks for hiding this cache for our enjoyment earthly65
Wow! like Fergclan, I've been handing out lots of fav points along this trail, this gets one too. Priceless container. tftc
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.
