Hi Grahame Cookie,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

First of the day wending our way south from Frying Pan, thought the village looked interesting after a long detour around Dungog due to bridge-works. After a sustaining coffee we searched and nabbed this one. Not fussed about the cobwebs in my hair though!
Thanks Graham Cookie
 
12-Oct-19
After having a fun filled and very hectic time finding caches and catching up with friends at the Queensland Outback Geo Muster 2019 we are now taking a bit more leisurely trip home but also grabbing the occasional cache.

After staying at Robin's Nest last night we are heading south again.

Today's weather had turned a little nasty on us and rather than doing a barn dance it would have been more appropriate to be singing in the rain. We headed off to gz and were happy when we located the cache container as we could add our name to the log without getting wet.
and we headed back to the nice dry car.

Thanks Graham Cookie for the cache.
 
06-Oct-19
We got hit by the road closed on our way from frying pan back into Dungog and had to detour out out out and around. Found this this cache on the way back. Thanks so much for the cache.

....


The beautiful puppy geo art up Maitland way has been tempting me for months!, so when Joolay, Minniek, Fitzy_1965 and SpecimenX started to brew plans for a trip, I knew I was in. Making a whole long weekend of it, we’ve hunted down much needed counties on Friday, diverted to Jasmers, caught up with locals at events and picked up some extra cool little trails and night caches, all the while keeping our eye on the geo art prize Smile So wonderful to have the chance to get away for some caching fun, and to catch up with some local cachers whilst we’re about. Thanks so much to everyone who has invested in these caches to make our wonderful weekend away a possibility. Thanks for the Cache.
 
06-Oct-19
Headed to the Maitland area with fitzy_1965 & SpecimenX for an extra long weekend of caching.

Day 3 saw us joined by nibletricecakes and Joolay again. After yesterday's mammoth effort we took it slow and headed up to Frying Pan caching along the way. On our way back into Dungog we discovered that the main bridge was closed for maintenance so had to do another huge loop just to get back. This cache was along the way.

All caches where found quickly and easily unless otherwise mentioned. Logs were either signed or stamped as Capital Crunchers, CC, Kapital Krunchers or KK.
 
06-Oct-19
19,120. Found as part of the Capital Crunchers Team (fitzy_1965, minniek, specimenX, nibletricecakes and Joolay) during the Canberra Invasion of Maitland region over the long weekend.

Day 3 of our invasion. And after a HUGE day yesterday we had our sights set on heading up and getting Frying Pan for our JASMER, plus other caches as they appeared on our route. After finding Frying Pan we headed back to Dungog the scenic route due to bridgeworks. Nevermind - we got 2 bonus caches along the way. This was a nice quick find.

Thanks Grahame Cookie !!
 
06-Oct-19
Today was the day we were heading up to Frying Pan to finally get that early month ticked off for my Ausmer. It was supposed to be an quick trip up but we ended up 4WD'ing the entire circuit after looking for a Trig up the back. And then we had a closed bridge so again a detour. So we decided to pick this up on the way back to Dungog.

Up in Maitland with Nibletricecakes, Fitzy1965, MinnieK and Specimen X, to do the Dogs Head going by the name of Capital Crunchers

Found with fitzy_1965, minniek, Nibletricecakes, Joolay as part of the Canberra Invasion of Maitland and surrounds over an extra long weekend Big Grin

Off we go on another adventure around the area and today's priority was to grab the golden oldie Frying Pan (GCF1) and then anything else which we had on our list Smile We stopped by this one on our detour as one of the bridges in the area was closed for roadworks. Anyway, this was a quick find for us here! Signed or stamped as Capital Crunchers or CC to save log space.

Thanks for the hide, Grahame Cookie Cool

We were staying at Branxton and doing some caching between there and Maitland before joining up with friends for a weekend retreat. It was a fun morning and a successful one as well. Each cache found had its log signed before it was returned to its hiding place. Good co-ords and info on the cache page meant it was a quick find. Many thanks to Grahame Cookie for this contribution to the caching game.

We were driving to Gloucester after a day in Dungog and visiting the southern part of the Barrington Tops National Park, finding a great short walk there. I pulled over just before running into Jimmy and crossed the bridge, waiting to be hit by a car given the way most people seem to drive around there. At GZ I was lucky to look in just the right place and soon had the cache logged. Thanks Grahame Cookie for placing this cache way out here, a good one too.

Today is the fourth day of our little holiday in Nelson Bay. We decided to take a drive along Bucketts Way for something different and to find a few specific caches when we noticed this one pop up on our GPS as we were returning to our accommodation, so we took a little detour. We found the cache easily and with our name in the log book, we continued on our way.

Thank you Grahame Cookie for having placed the cache and maintaining it for everyone to enjoy Cool

Find #494
We had a really great weekend camping/caching in Chichester last weekend, I had the Bucketts Way half in mind as a way home should the time be available. It wasn't, so today we decided to drive and cache our way to Gloucester. We had a great day, noted a few places to come back to, and others to set off from in the future.... only 1 DNF too.....

Boy, the old bridge has seen better days, I'm surprised it hasn't been completely washed away.... Again, the farmers friends were in plague proportions, but we found the cache without any problems. Cache contents pretty damp unfortunately.
 
22-May-16
We drove up to Gloucester today to cache on the Bucketts Way. We found 9 caches, to get our total to 499, ready for 500 next week!
 
03-May-16
Hmmm, spent longer trying to get the farmer's friends off than finding the cache! Also shows how and where the creek when flooded deposits debris ... TFTC

Thanks Grahame Cookie for placing this cache

The name of this one amused me [:]. It was pretty messy under the bridge, but eventually the cache was found, tucked away from the debris.

Thanks Smile
