Found with TassieGirl while here on holidays.
Searched a little before we found the right spot.
No cache but there was paper to sign?
I now see this has been achived.
Pity as this was a lovely spot for a wander.
TFTC.

It is unfortunate that some Muggles find my non-expensive containers so attractive.

Unfortunately I can not replace cache.

This one will have to be archived.

Reperio at 1620. Another nice area of bushland here, and whilst the cache was found quickly enough, the obvious lack of container made me think 'How did it get like this?' Was it always like this? Did someone take it? Weird.

Gratias.

#535, found at 16:28.

Quickly found. Due to trees the coords were a little off, but the hint helped and led us to the right spot.
Is it correct that the cache has no cache container itself?? We found only a zipper bag with logbook, but no more...

TFTC and regards,
the Monacos

Had to do this one on my own because the other eels were afraid that snakes would be involved. They weren't, but an out of control dog was. Off the lead, old lady walking with it, no ability to make it heel sit come, nothing! Not impressed with this local at all, and I'm very worried about what would happen if it attacked a small child like it did to me. In the end, the other eels heard the commotion and came to my rescue, only to be attacked themselves. Three scared and scratched geocachers were very glad to get out of there intact.

Decided to spend a beautiful day out caching at Port MADSTARS.

The owl was not home today but the M&M's were.

A nice little walk through the bush for a couple of caches.

Thanks MADSTARS

#4764 Found this cache as part of the Rats, Steeba & FarmerFrentzen blitz on the Port Stephens area. A nice easy find as we made our way around the bay. I like the hidey hole.
Thanks
 
20-Nov-10
Found during a 17 hour caching spree with The Rats and steeba that yielded 124 finds.

A short walk along the back of the neighbouring properties followed by a relatively simple find.

TNLN and thanks MADSTARS for the cache.
 
20-Nov-10
Found on a mammoth day's caching of 124 caches in 17 hours around the Maitland and Port Stephens area with The Rats and FarmerFrentzen.

A short walk up past the local owner mowing his lawn. TFTC!

Must be big owls around these parts. Garmin MAP60csx indicated slight discrepency in co-ords but obvious find none the less. SL TFTC

Found at 1.30pm GAFF1. A nice name for a cache, we were glad the owl was not at home. It was lovely to be out enjoying the day. We love the Soldiers Point area and have memories of some lovely times spent at a cabin overlooking the lovely views. It was nice to explore some of the bush area we have not been to before.
Thanks MADSTARS & MISS MADSTARS.

I’m getting the hang of how you set up your caches, like 2 step cache but traditional. Nice walk had.

Geomum stayed in the car with sleeping bub whilst the rest of the chochunter clan went in search of the cache. Before long the cache was in hand. Now to work out how to get to the next cache.... TFTC TNLN SL
 
Thanks Madstar

We have had a GREAT weekend Caching with the KALM Explores in the Nelson Bay area loved all the spots that you have set aside.

Just had a message from the famous HG (thehuntergahterers) they are in the area so be aware!

With the pirates again, the 'older' members of the teams stayed back a little and let the kids go ahead to try their luck. Approaching GZ I've looked at the GPS, looked at where the Pirates minus 1 and explorer kids were looking and thought, they've gone too far. Letting them go, I've started looking around where i thought it should be and soon found the goods.
Another quick sign and about to head off back to the cars when we realised there was another cache nearby, so change of plans, walking onto the next.
TFTC.

I actually searched the hide on the way to Spiders, Snakes thinking that it was a prime hide location. We only looked at the description for this one as we started to head back to it from Spiders and it dawned on us we had already been to the hide. A more thorough search found the hide. TFTC MADSTARS.

It seemed like the lowest part between Tennis and this cache was the track, as it seemed to be one long puddle after the rain! Spied the likely hide from 50m away and it was well hidden inside. Thanks MADSTARS.
 
13-Jun-10
A nice walk from Nafe High, and then it was off to the next one along the track.
Thanks,
The Hancock Clan

It has been raining well. on the path to this one there was a spring pushing out beautiful clean water. I watched it for a bit and then followed the trickle to the cache.
I always get hungry when I find these m&m containers.

Wasn't even hidden lol i could kinda see it poking out a bit. You should really start painting these things black MADSTARS

Off to a course at Salamnder Shores again, and as I left a little early (riding my bike), I had time to try for this cache. I was able to ride almost all the way and retrieve this (and still make the course on time. It is pleasant walking and biking territory.
 
02-May-10
Found by Mary & David at 1405. A good walk from the end of the street where we parked. The owl would certainly like this home. Yet again our thanks to Madstars.
 
26-Apr-10
This was our 3538th overall find.

Found at 10:49 AM. Little Miss Madstars certainly has been busy the last few weeks! I'm a bit worried her teeth will rot away, I hope her parents are keeping an eye on her and she hasn't been going hyper from all those M&M's! A nice short walk from where we parked the car. A quick find and then on to the next cache.

Thanks MADSTARS for the cache.

Found this one while out showing a friend the joys of geocaching. After finding "NAFE HIGH" and "Tennis Anyone?" we headed on further to find this one. Our friend caught on quickly and she found this one pretty quickly. TNLNSL TFTC
