Did find this one, assisted by the helpful clue. Loved the communal letter box up the road. Thanks groovydoo
Thanks for this little one. We have driven through here before but didn't stop
We've been holidaying down in Coffs Harbour for the week. When we've been able to get to geomonsters out of the pool at the resort, we've been out and about exploring this beautiful part of the world.
Today we decided to head inland and visit a couple of waterfalls. The plan was to go via the Eastern Dorrigo Way to Danger Falls then through Dorrigo to the Crystal Shower Falls, Sherrard Falls and Newell Falls then back to Coffs Harbour.
All was well, driving through some stunning scenery, then from somewhere past Ulong the tarmac stopped, and the gravel started. And went on and on and on. If you had a proper car this road, with its tight curves and bends could be great fun to drive. We have a boring car, so although I enjoyed the drive and having to concentrate to keep us on the 'road', the family soon got fed up.
It was a blessing when we reached the outskirts of Megan and stopped at the bus stop to stretch our legs and swap drivers.
I'm tall so spotted the cache in no time at all. Unfortunately, the log was full, so took a photo of me with the log.
This was number 32 for our trip.
Thanks!!

Found on our little drive around Dorrigo. The log is chockers, unable to sign, thank you for the cache ??
I have a sister called Megan but I don't think she has ever waited for the bus here.
Checked out the Megan area including the old train and railway station. Pretty cool area off the beaten track.
Log book is full needs replacing

Thanks for the cache, first one for our family after a few years break and a move up the mountain. Beautiful area for geocaching.
Making our way from Dorrigo to Grafton and taking a road not travelled before as well as stopping for a few caches along the way.
Thanks to the COs for placing these caches or our enjoyment.

Out and about driving to Grafton from Dorrigo. While driving along the roads we stopped to do some of the caches. Thank you to the CO's for placing them in these locations. TFTC
Going by the spider webs and dust on the seat Megan now has her license and no longer waits for bus. Only having a stamp. A good clue if it stays there are my stamps on the wall below where I put the cache back. Hate nanos. Tftc
Easily found by my friend again, much easier than I normally find these bus stop.caches
It was in the first place I looked but I didn't see it till a recheck after all else failed. No bus, no passengers so plenty of time to look around. TFTC
[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.
I like it
Another one of the list

Almost missed it! But one last look and it gave it’s hiding spot away to me. Tftc
out here today to collect the last few dorrigo and surrounds caches i’ve missed. an easy find here, thanks
She may be waiting for the bus and so are all the spiders. I thought i was quite tall but no luck today
We have been staying at the free camp in Thora with our caravan and using it as a base to cache around Bellingen and Dorrigo to as far as Ebor. Fabulous countryside and we have loved the creative hides. Thankyou groovydoo for placement of this cache and sharing this special spot with us.
Team Deane Mr found this in record time! Even the youngest little Miss could find it. Our fastest find ever. Love it. Thanks!
While away for a couple of days from Brisbane visiting this area we nabbed a few cache hides.
We loved the countryside around and enjoyed our time finding the little smiley’s here and there.
This one was done while we were on our way to Dorrigo via the back roads.
Lots of spiders around GZ which the TG half of our team didn't like. She insisted I should grab the container.
All was good with the cache.

On my way back to Canberra from Brisbane. Taking a scenic route off the main highways. A quick find, TFTC.
Seriously. Can't find your nano today. Good thing I'm not arachnophobic. A little surface spray in the right place would help. And no I'm not tall.
A quick grab as we continue our journey. Nice cache. Thanks for the scenic drive. TFTC
Found with shrimp 92 . Beautiful afternoon for a cache or two. Thankyou for the cache
No-one said anything about a guardian!!! There was the biggest spider we have ever seen about 2 cm from the cache which we had to gentle coax away with a stick. After signing the log, it was a bit nerve racking putting the cache back in case the guardian came back out!!! TFTC groovydoo
Weekend geotrip with ZO33 down in the Dorrigo Area.
What a glorious area with many beautiful natural attractions and plenty to see.
Thank you for placing and maintaining geocaches

While in the area we picked this cache up. An easy find by Mrs "T".
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Being vertically challenged we carry the right equipment for caches such as these. Luckily there was no one around to see us. TFTC
Very glad that there was no one to see us climbing up to this one. Enjoyed a nice drive out of Dorrigo to pick up a couple of caches. Thanks for the cache groovydoo.
A quiet little place with a surprisingly large creek running through. Mr. Herbz reached this little one. TFTC.
This morning we moved onto Urunga, met up with pprass to search for caches in the Dorrigo area.
We decided to find the furtherest cachest first, this sent us into the forestry region where some mighty Tallowood were located.
Good parking here at Megan, nobody waiting for a bus so able to search in peace.

Drove up from Coffs by the backroad. Kept an eye out for caches along the way and this was the first. Took time out to find this one but didn't have time for a hit of tennis.
After having spent the night at the Green Gully Camping area at Wollomombi, we continued our camping trip north.
Megan wasn't there, maybe she had already taken the bus - we found and signed a log.

This one made the trip to Megan worthwhile. A very pretty little spot that we wouldn't have visited, except for geocaching. TFTC groovydoo.SL
Megan was waiting for the bus for a long time.... Since the bus wasn't coming we had time to search for this little one...We almost gave up, but then returned 2 times and finally found it. TFTC
Found with Nudge74 & Doogle06. Didn't take to long to find but I think Megan may be waiting a while. Certain there's not a regular bus timetable out this way. TFTC.
Nice quiet little town. Took a detour from the planned caches to grab these two. TFTC.
Found with Nudge74 & Vaggfam

And after the drive from Coramba, I needed to stop and wait for me head to stop spinning [xx(]
That is a twisty road
No wonder there is no bus service here
And the cobwebs and dust at GZ tell the tale !!
This is one very, very under-utilised bus shelter [:o]
At least it gets a few visitors now, thanks to geocaching
The tennis courts and picnic grounds next door seem to have suffered the fate of the bus shelter too [:o]
With only a farmer on his tractor slowly putt-putting past to disturb the early morning peace and quiet, I set to finding the cache amongst the sticky webs
A poking stick certainly comes in handy here !!
And after about 10 minutes ... I finally tracked down a cache [;P]

I had found 994 caches before today, so today was an attempt to make it to 1000. I had found number 1000 back at the old railway bridge, so this turned out to be number 1,001 (like the Dalmatians). TFTC
I put sticks and fingers in all places I shouldn't but still came up short. I'd love to know where it was as I doubt I'll be there again.
Still have to put your fingers amonst spider webs but i could see they had been much worse than they were on my visit..a tricky hide...Thanks for another cache Groovydoo!
It appears the spiders have been busy since the last cacher but we found it before giving GZ another web clean. TFTC groovydoo.
Found at 10.45am GAFF3. We had a lovely drive along the Eastern Dorrigo Way/Coramba Rd - this is beautiful countryside indeed. We searched all over the shelter and cleared out heaps of cob webs, so the next cacher if they come around in the next day or two will have an easy find.
Thanks groovydoo.
Thanks groovydoo.
Didn't find this one but found a few more of groovydoo's caches later in the day. I think that it probably is there, we just didn't look hard enough!
What a great day we've had today geocaching around Dorrigo. Thanks for all the geocaches that have been placed by various geocachers for us all to find. Including this one from Groovydoo. This one had us going for a moment but the tricky little hide was discovered and the log retrieval tool was put to use. Our signature was added to the log and the cache replaced. The attraction part of this geocache is loose inside. Do be careful not to lose it.
