This was going to cap off a successful streak today, turns out the coords are wrong (see logs), it'll have to wait till next time

Wow, I am really hating this cache. I searched low and below for 15-20 minuted, but my searches were anything but fruitful. I don't know if I am searching in the wrong place, or what.
The grass is way over grown and hint is not very helpful as there's so manny rocks .if anyone wants to help it would be much appreciative
A local lady pointed us in the direction of where the cache should be, but we had no luck finding it. I see from previous logs that it is not in the location indicated by the coordinates. Maybe this one needs to be checked and the coordinates corrected.
Too hard for us in the dark, and with all the logs about the coords being off we gave up.
Maybe another day.
Maybe another day.
Attempted this one a few says ago but messed up with coordinates. Prickles, lantana and ants fought to keep this hidden but to no avail. Left 1948 halfpenny. Good hide. Now where's the 'Stingo'.
Great spot to hide one but getting to it was tricky as the bush is overgrown around it with lots of hitchhiker plants surrounding the area. Didn't give up and tried from a few angles until we just pushed through it. Lucky wasn't much happening on the track today otherwise it would be difficult to retrive. Swapped shark teeth keyring for poker chip.
Searched for this one for ages (even with the coordinates Grub Fred posted) and just as I was about to give up when I decided to try Grub Fred coordinates one last time. Turns out the overgrowth completely observed the rock. TFTC
Found while biking with Baktrak. Took a while to find. Nice use of biting flies & not so friendly "famers friends" . TFTC
Found using coords from a much earlier log after TimboC went for a wander in the grass. Very annoying, biting flies here today. TFTC
The coords do seem a little off for this one, the other logs are correct with about 10 or 12m away. Didn't take too long to track down as it was hidden in a logical spot not in the middle of the line.
I searched for a while for this cache and wasn't until i read some previous logs and put in a different set of coordinates into my Gps that that someone had posted, It wasn't much of a difference to the posted coordinates but it was enough to give me a find.
Found at 10:45 on a wet day. My geobrotherinlaw and i desided it was to early for a beer so we went geocaching instead (how silly are we) Pulled up very near to GZ and went for the cache, thankfully it was a easy find as it was raining quiet heavly at the time.

Our 4939th overall find.
Found this one after dark on my way back home. Once at the zero point my heart sank when I spotted all that railway ballast. I looked for a while before I went for the hint. It confirmed I was in the right place, or did it. After an extended search I had all but given up when I saw an old log that mentioned a different coordinate. I tried that and made the find. I have taken some new coordinates and attached them to this log.
Thanks to TheWobblys for the cache.

Round and round the garden! Back to the car to read more logs and eventually found, I marked at S32 58.950, E151 42.526. While I was averaging coords, a bike rider thought I was radaring his speed!! TFTC!!
This was my third visit to find this cache, and I took a non geocaching friend along with me.
After explaining to him what I was looking for and pointing to the spot it supposed to be, and not where my Gps was still pointing me, he followed a little trail, and having me reading out the hint to him, pulled out a cache.
I was surprised to say the least.
Sometimes, it pays just to put that gps away and use your 'geosence'
TFTC
And a nice spot too BTW

Reperio at 1645. Arrived at GZ to indeed find the end of the line, but the coords were telling me it was in one spot, when in the end I found the cache 12m away off track. A nice walking trail which I look forward to exploring.
Gratias.

It was the arfternoon that that huge storm ripped through. I had spent all day nearby knowing that only 400m away was a cache with travelbugs in it.
When I finally got there, the storm had only just passed, but there was still cyclists out! what kind of mad man would be out in this weather?
So my GPS was not giving me a good reading, and I checked all the likely spots, but I left damp and empty handed.
I will return.

It certainly was the end of the line. I had the coords about 15m out on the other side. Thanks for showing me the trail.
2nd find on this beautiful day

After Mik-El took an oppurtunity to show off his superior balance skills to M-Dogg on the old railroad track, Team Rocket got down to business and actually went caching here. The biggest challenge was avoiding the million-or-so muggles that felt today was the perfect day for a power walk, but eventually, we ditched sneakiness for the evver-so-subtle "fake tying of shoelaces". Despite Mik-el wearing slip-on converse. Still, a great find! TFTC!
There were lots of muggles around today, so we thought we would have to come back another time, but once we realised exactly where the cache was hidden, we knew we could hide our activity from the biking muggles. TFTH
Bit of a rainy day for a bike ride, but had fun anyway.
Found the cache and dropped off Eagle Two 2004 coin.

OK, that took A WHILE. End of the line naturally means End of the LINE - well after an indeterminate amount of time, I spied something - wandered to it - AHA - a cache, Sort of close enough. A pleasant ride along the whole track today,
The End of the Line was the start of the line today. Back in the saddle after a spell and I was off with mate and navigator spikeymikey for an enjoyable day of caching. Took Shark Geocoin. Thank you

Finally found it in the dark! The iPhones don't work too well in this area and the gps' battery died hours ago! TFTC
Saw the geotrail eventually which lead me to it. Wish I had my bike as this looks like an awesome ride! Unfortunatly today was ute-bound so it's the park and walk option for these ones Cheers from Sydney!

Great bit of cycleway through here! Plenty of muggles around but I think we managed enough stealth! TFTC!
Found it in the dark and rain although it wasn't as easy as we expected it to be. Took the accessability geocoin. Left smiley magnet. TFTC
Today was a bit of a struggle with our caching - our GPS has packed it in and we have had to rely on our car navigator! We parked not far away from this one, so we had a quick walk towards GZ. Once we got close and we read the additional hint - we were a bit deflated as we were surrounded by rocks!! But we widened our search and very soon had the cache in hand. We dropped of the Accessibility GC - as this Fernleigh Track is a great area for wheelcahirs. Signed log. TFTC
Found by Mary & David at 1205. We have done several caches along this trail now, and we're still impressed by its scale. Liked seeing the rail tracks displayed here too. 'DESIRE THE RIGHT' TB called in too. Our thanks yet again to The Wobblys.
We found it after some hunting our GPS which is usually pretty accurate said it was 12m the other way.
Found it... no sign of snake... only snake hole... took a bottle of perfume and a soldier
A great time for the heavy rain to start but at least the area was clear of cyclists. I was a bit careful about where I put my hands and feet with previous logs talking about brown snakes, even in the rain. The umbrella served another purpose as I prodded the cache safely into view. TNLN, thanks for a great hide in a busy place. I just have to bring our cycles back to this track on a future visit.
After donating blood to the mossies I found the cach, but no snake in sight.

Gee if I had read the previous logs I might not have just reached it and pulled out the cache so carelessly ...snakes...Well I am a bit happier now it is over even placed my head on the ground to see if it was there, the cache that is..SL and place it back for the snake to protect it from muggles..
cheers

We took a little while to find the cache but no snake guarding the location. Lots of people out for a bike ride today so we had to time the retrieval. TFTC TheWobblys. [358]
At posted waypoint found a large rock but due to the brown snake was unable to sign log book. No matter what we tried he did not wish to move.
Dam snake. Scared the daylights out of me.
Will return another day for this one.

Will return another day for this one.

Well this took longer than anticipated... The muggles across the road have just bought a house and they are working on it...
Man they were so curious.... watching watching watching...
Watching me picking up blue metal and pushing it around with my feet.
Thank god the cache was no where near that.
Cheers for the cache Wobblys.

When I arrived at GZ and saw all the rocks my heart sank. I flipped over a few then looked from one that stood out. It didn't take me long to find and sign after using geo-logic.
I've only ridden the Fernleigh Track from Adamstown to Kahibah. I can't wait to ride this new section.

Found on our last caching hit for 2009 (30th - 31st December) in the Nelsons Bay / Central Coast area.
We wish all a happy new year and hope to see you all at the Wagga Mega Event in April 2010.

Went out here today with Mini Cash Man.
Arrived at ground zero along with dozens of bike riders and walkers.
From the name of the cache and the hint I deduced that the cache was hidden in the balast at the end of the track.
After turning over all the balast looking for one of TheWobblys micros I checked the description to see it was a small cache.
A quick look around revealed the cache. Good to see the old line preserved so the kids know what they are riding along.
Thanks Wobbly Family.
