Swings @ Stokers Stokers Siding, New South Wales, Australia
By Romenfree on 10-Mar-11. Waypoint GC2Q0Q4

We looked everywhere but didn't find

Seems to have gone missing, sadly I am not in that area anymore to replace the cache.

Looked high and low....checked the oval.....no go

Sure we found the oval hole, nothing in there though!

The cache was missing when our CITO was held in this little park today so we replaced it to help the CO.

TFTC! Left a silver smartphone stylus and a butterfly eraser and yes, they fit! Ha ha

We didn't read Aussie Lahona's note until we got home. The cache we found wasn't a new one so we didn't find the one that was left yesterday. We must have found the original one because there were plenty of log entries.

Attending the CITO this morning. Came by here at 9am and couldn't find the cache. Back here with the "locals" and they confirmed that it was missing and generously went about replacing it so I got to sign a fresh log.
Weird that "cycling girl" somehow found the original today. One of those Geocaching mysteries.
Nice wee park.

Found this cache while attending a CITO event at ground zero
Like to find caches with a bit of history attached to them
Tftc

After climbing Mount Warning earlier in the day, we went for a lazy drive around some of the local towns. This little town certainly has its charm....and the shop across the road has excellent home-made pies! I like where the cache is hidden, and I was able to make the quick find. SL TFTC

Our first find for the day woohooo

Found it while snacking on cherry Guavas. Had help from sugar glider.

Nice found tftc

My TB "SpikeyMikey's Aussie Flag" has gone missing (probably muggled) and has been marked as missing. Bugger!!!!

Out having an adventurous day of caching with King-fisher 8 and RoddyC and Team Benders and DiamonJS. Been muggled. TB missing

My husbands grandparents came from Stokers and I could stand at this cache and see their house, many memories invaded my thoughts while looking for this, so this is a TFTC and TFTM

Out with a great bunch of cachers today.
Pulled up for a quick find. A new place I have not been.
Strange messages in log book and strange things in the container which we cleaned out.
No TB which you need to log as missing.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Romenfree All good with this cache

Today is our Mullumbimby/Tweed Valley Way trek with King-fisher 8, jackxena62, Team Benders and DiamonJs. No muggles in sight anywhere at this time of day. Strange notes in Log book - one saying they thought it was a drugs container and they were very disappointed. Haha. Found at 6.20 pm on 6th March 2015. TFTC.

Quick stop in the rain. Trackable dropped.

TFTC

Tftc took travel bug

Stoked about this one

Easy find in a beautiful little town! Onto the glow worms now! Left travel bug!

3rd cache for today accompanied by Boofhead. Love this little village. TFTC!

Easy find. Thanks for the cache. Love Stokers Siding

While travelling to this one, I checked the info and hint. Hmm, hint sounds a bit obscure.

Arriving at GZ, I get it now. Nice quick find. Log signed by all and cache replaced.

TFTC

OH MY DEAR FAERIES!!!! I was white knuckled by the time we arrived at this location. The back roads around here can certainly turn a normal caching mission into something that more resembles a scene from the Dukes of Hazzard Yes..... one of the scenes where they were airborne

This cache ended up being a joint covert mission for my little group. We arrived at GZ and found where we should look straight away, the only problem was the muggle sitting in her car behind us. Hmm, FastEd 59 stood in the direct line of sight, Team DNA and myself spotted the muggle, while barbbowman went in for the grab. Happily the muggle was none the wiser and we were able to sign the log and replace the cache when the lady muggle turned to look in the back of her car. Mission complete!

Thanks for the cache Romenfree

together we can do anything ...

took fish
left green ribbon

On a NSW adventure with Nyssafluttery, barbbowman and FastEd59.

We had completed the two caches we had come down to grab and was left with some extra time! We decided to follow the cache trail and see how we went!

Getting different directions from everyone in the car, it took us a little while to figure out how to get to the last couple of caches!! While we were racing about, someone perhaps forgot about the rather large hill/speed bump after one of the bridges and we might have gotten some air...

But we made it to the cache and managed to retrieve it without alerting any nearby muggles to our mission.

Easy find at this interesting relic.TNLNTFTC.

We searched and searched, then decided it was missing, wandered over to the shelter to chat and found the cache, replaced it to its proper hide.

Interesting piece of equipment, thanks Romenfree

Heading to do the Glow worm caves with a group of folk meeting up for Mr Gaps 4000th cache we stopped in here for a snack. Looked and searched and was about to DNF when it was fund in the nerarby picnic shelter. Signed the log book and replaced according to cords and hint TFTC

Well, that was harder than it needed to be. Some helpful person moved the cache to the picnic shelter nearby. Lots of log entries by muggles - nothing sinister, which is good. Log signed and cache returned to where the clue suggested it should be. TFTC

easy find accurate co ords

TFTC!!

Was able to spot easily so hid it abit more

A couple of people around.. Had to be stealth. Tftf happy caching ?

Found it on the picni table, put back in original position

Was muggled out first time round, with someone sitting at the table. Decided leave it and go for the Railway of Blood instead. No one around when i came back so the prize was soon mine. I like coming to Stokers to check out the craft/art shops too.
tftc

On a tour of the local villages. Stopped to pick up this cache. TFTC

Thanks for the cache, cool cache. Muggles nearby having a cuppa but didn't see what we were up to. Had a wild time on the swings. Caching with McLookers.

We had previously been at the nearby Rail of Blood cache and stopped off in the picnic area for coffee. As we pulled into the parking area the other half of the team said "that's a cache' referring to the container on the picnic table. Opening it up, sure enough it was the cache. I opened the container and flicked through the log book - all seem to be in order, we even found our log from September 2011.

Concerned that it would completely disappear if we left it were it was, we returned it to the hidey hole where we originally found found it. Hope this is ok.

A nice spot to stop. We found the cache using the clue and managed to avoid picnicing muggles. Thanks Romenfree.

nice piece of history tftc

Found this one on a drive through the area, I love the shop across the road but I didn't tempt myself, I usually buy some lead light items. TFTC

Great Place worth the detour

Was hidden in plain sight tucked away nicely now .. TFTC

TFTC

Thanks for the Cache

First of the Sunday morning caches after a big day on Mt Warning on Saturday. In light rain most people had still not arisen from there slumber so the place was very quite this morning

Friday was a leisurely day with T-Tech, caching our way from Brisbane to Murwillumbah.

Saturday was a manic day, which started with a very early milestone smashing hike to see the sun rise from Mount Warning with T-Tech, Brother Colin, LadySim, Swellerfungus, teamdfl and ruzzelz, followed by a few hours road tripping to Nimbin with Brother Colin, followed by some Fishin' and puzzle hunting with the others. A HUGE day out

Sunday it's time to head back to Brisbane with T-Tech, but of course we took a very long scenic route [^] After a quick run out to Tyalgum to get one last view of Mount Warning from there, followed by a couple more caches back in town we headed south towards Mullumbimby. And we couldn't leave these two green boxes behind either T-Tech made quick work of this one. The little engine was quaint. TFTC, Romenfree.

About a month or so ago IolantheK invited me to come on an adventure for her 4000th find to do Cloud Catcher.
I managed to get my numbers aligned to make it my 6000th.
But that was yesterday. Today I headed out by myself to find a few caches on my way home.
Again I headed south and at one stage had to stop to let the cycling peleton go past.
A quick find here about lunch time.
Thanks for the cache.

On our round about way back to Brisbane after a weekend in Murwillumbah to celibate IolantheK's 4000th find [^]
IolantheK and I grabbed a few more caches [^]
This was another one of her "make the area all smilies" caches
The cache is dry and in good condition [^]
TFTC Romenfree

An early wake up while geowife is sleeping, and I came out for a few 'extra' caches. It was funny to see that another in our caching party had signed the log before me...and I thought I had gotten up early.

After coming across from Uki over some very scenic countryside I finally came into reception range and managed to pick this one up without too much trouble.

Thanks for the hide Romenfree, a lovely little township with such obvious pride in its heritage.

We're going to claim a find here. Found a cache container in the appropriate spot. - - - No log inside (or anything else for that matter). Removed the inside pages from my notebook and left them for a log. We loved this little village and managed to spend a little(ish) time and money in the shops opposite. The garage seemed to be a going concern too though we didn't see any Kombi vans. TFTC and hi from NZ.

What a lovely spot, found two great shops

Out for a bit of a run today and the nearest group of caches that weren't smiling where down here so I drove the hour to do some of my favourite game.

There was a light shower of rain as I approached GZ so I resisted the temptation to take a swing (probably too small for me anyway).

GZ became obvious but the specific location took some investigation but I eventually tracked down my prize.

A quaint little area that I probably would never have come to had it not been for a cache.

Thanks Romenfree TFTC SL TNLN

Thanks for the tip. Cool.

Muggles (we assume) had cache spread all over park, but we have fixed and saved the day! TFTC - all systems go in Stokers Siding

Took a while to get reception on the phone. I would recommend maybe saving this one offline before you start looking. Great little hide tho. TFTC

Easy end to a tough day for us. Good opportunity to ponder the future of the railway line. No faith in any government being capable of making a good decision here. So much easier to do nuthin.

Dannza and I had a couple of days off work, so what better way to spend it then a caching road trip to Byron Bay. Found the cache which was in good condition and hidden well. Quiet peaceful place to live. TFTC Romenfree

Found late in the day, sun is starting to go down. Missed the local shops - will be back.

Had a work appointment in Stokers so I dropped in to pick this one up. Easily to hand given the clue . Congratulations to the people of Stokers for soldiering on despite there being no siding and no railway. TFTC Romenfree .

Nice

This geocache is the closest we have been to other people whilst finding them. Discretion is recommended! Tftc

TFTC Found while heading home from our holiday road trip

A quick day trip for work to Murwillumbah from Woolgoolga for a site survey, oh well might as well fill in a few dots on the map which is what today's caching run was about. Quick and easy drive by's spaced apart.

Heading back on the now bypassed Burringbar Range I thought I would swing into Stokers Siding, as it had been a turnoff I used to pass often many years ago but never investigated, despite being into trains - though that is no reason to call in these days. Lots of cars parked here today but nobody around except in the mechanic over the road, and while I often hate these hides on machines this one was pretty easy. Grabbed a TB that had been waiting a while and dropped it back just in time before some bikers turned up. Thanks Romenfree.

First NSW find yeah!!!

Camping at near by farm stay , so we couldn't resist at having a look at the map to see if there was a cache near by. Very happy that there is and that we found it

Our first find in nsw

Found it at work nearby.took nothing, left TB. Tftc.

Albert Smith was particularly helpful to us on this one

Nice little village - cache located in park - easy find TFTC

An easy stop and find in the village that has historical significance for Richmond Lad and I.

where is it

Midgets loved stopping in park
Easy find tftc

Never got such muddy feet whilst looking for a geocache but still, fun finding it. Thanks for my 1st NSW cache.

Nice easy clue, easy cache to find! Found with GeoGirlfriend. TheBeerMonkey

A few people around but luckily there is a sign to crouch down and read.
Thanks Romenfree.

Easy find
Nice little town TY

what an easy find

=) Great cache!! ive always loved stokers siding and the drive through here is always amazing. ayepeacee jnr played at the park while brightskies and i hunted down the container .. TFTC =)

Found with ayepeacee while apc junior played on the equipment. We were on a road trip and glad to keep stretching our legs and backs. Cache is doing great. Interesting stuff around here. Thanks heaps for the cache. ^^

Good cache!

TFTC,
Rushed out to grab this one because it looked easy given that the one at Knox is now archived even though it is still in place and I loged my visit. I need to ensure that I have a Cache every day as I continue my attempt to reach 366days. Visited a group of thackables.

A quiet little town but always with an interesting history. We admired the park before locating the cache and taking some photos. Thanks Romenfree

I noticed the cache was in need of a little TLC, we stopped on our way south and checked it out. Left a TB for next to find!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Easy find and clever clue. TFTC Romenfree, I will definitely spend more time in Stokers, it was a rush trip this time. TNLNSL

Thanks for this one Romenfree, didnt need a stick, just reached in and grabed it.
It was a little wet, we did what we could, signed your book and replaced it.

Easy find as it was sticking out and visible. Someone had found it as there was a muggle entry in the log book. When we returned it we hid it a little better. Found with kadin92.

TFTC!!
nice spot, kids found it.

A nice easy find on our recent camping trip to nearby Hosanna Farmstay. TFTC.

Found it

Found at 1350. Marg left me to the cash while she investigated the shops accross the road. A quick find. TFTC.

We are on our holidays from the Netherlands and traveling from Sydney to Fraser Island via Border Ranges.
TFTC

Oh what a gorgeous little place. My good friends Aussie Liahona stayed here when they first moved to Qld and their little kids went to the school. I had no trouble finding the cache and noticed the name Albert Smith which is always a good name in my book. I can give this one a favourite with no trouble at all.
