Wallsend to Glendale PT6 Elermore Vale, New South Wales, Australia
By cccritter7 & 88jaz88 on 20-Jul-12. Waypoint GC3QW9P

It has come to my attention that this series is creating an impact on the surrounding environment. Geo-trails are forming and weeds are being spread due to the nature of these hides.

The guidelines state: "Geocaches are placed so that plant and animal life are safe from both intentional and unintentional harm. "

As a result, I am archiving this series to avoid further damage to the environment and to use these containers for some more "unique" style hides.

Thank You for all the unreal logs and comments over the past 17 and a half months.

Out for a ride

The last find on the hot cycle ride. Time to compile the numbers and find the hidden cache, and find air conditioning.

Son and I got dropped off at the start of the path at Wallsend and started walking.
We turned on the GPSr right at #5, there was people feeding the horses, so moved on.
We found this one, then just kept right on walking. Trying to avoid d/t 1.5/1.5 this was our first choice.
Turned off at the last (#15) to walk on the track under the power lines and to home.
Thanks for not making them all 1.5/1.5!

Afraid I mite of seen a snake on this find

Hi,

Time to bring the numbers up for this year with a power trail. So far 2013 has been a very slow geocaching year for me.

A nice walk on this trail today with a lot of cache. Enjoyed the scenery and had a interesting chat with one of the locals.

Cheers,

Dr. Gold.

(#6/15)

Found it

Boys enjoyed the climb

I thought I would finish off these a I started then a while ago I had time this morning like the series of hides Thanks cccriter7 for the good work

Had to skip #5 as there was a muggle in sight feeding the ponies, but we found this one with no troubles. And those rain clouds started sneaking back over the top of us...

Bit of a caching afternoon with my brother, walked part of this trail and picked up some caches along the way. And got distracted by ponies! TFTC.

Quick find great clue

easy cahe hint gave it away to much

Easy to spot

My first cache in Australia! Was out exploring and I thought I would log this serie of caches. A nice walk to Glendale, and then a nice run back to Wallsend. All of the caches were an easy find accept the last one that I had to think a few minutes until I could find it. Thanks for this nice serie

Great hide

TFTC

Found it

Ok so today was a classic example of not doing your homework. I had no idea this was on a cycle so I ended walking the whole thing with my friend.

A few were a bit tricky but we managed to get them all. I had no idea this was here so thank you for introducing me to the cycle way.

TFTC

Managed to trek this all by foot with a fellow geo friend, after the first 4 we realized bicycles would of been much better if we both did our homework before trekking.

A few were a bit hard to get at first but we managed to get all of them in the end.

Overall, a lovely afternoon along the path which we never had known it existed.

Cool hide

Found #6

Part 6 found!

Quick find this evening. TFTC.

Pleasant walk on a Tuesday arvo. Thanks for the series.
Missed the obvious, but got there eventually.

Found by Nanny and Bo on a glorious winter afternoon.
We had came to Newcastle to do caching with Fattyacid.
This was typical of the finds all along this lovely and highly recommended walk/cache experience.
Signed the Log.
Took Nothing and Left Nothing.
Thanks For The Cache.

Thanks for the cache Cccritter7.

With freezing hands and faces, Cccritter7 and I set off on our great Geocaching adventure. We started with the Toolbox series on the Fernleigh Track, then found the Balls-Out series in the Kahibah Sports complex. After this, a few stand alone caches in Kahibah/Charlestown. We then zoomed down the Pacific Highway on our bikes. After a perilously steep hill in Windale, we searched for the 'Nature Bird' Series in Tingira Heights. It wasn't the greatest time to take these on, as there was some very muddy tracks. After a spot of lunch along the way, we completed the majority of the caches and came down to the shore of Lake Mac. We picked up the Billion Dollar Boardwalk Series, then went on a long ride along the beautiful Lake Mac, ending up at Mega Fun. We then headed to The Leaning Red Gum cache at Glendale. After that we enjoyed a McFlurry at Macca's, before setting off for the Glendale to Wallsend Power Trail. After completing this, we tiredly set off home, exhausted but tired after an awesome day of GeoCaching.

No cycle accidents with kids ... Yet

Not too high

6467 + 819 = 7286. Found during a brief morning run in the Newcastle area.

Had just enough time to walk this power trail and then get back to the car before having to leave Newcastle. Parked near number 1 and started the walk. This was a quick find and I just avoided some cycling muggles who stopped here for a drink.

Thanks again cccritter7 !!

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Right stump. Dads taller.

[:O)] Team Work. Scouts Australia Competition.

Dad, we hadn't looked there yet.

[:x]

Overshot this one by a good 100M. Got back, and a quick find for GeoDad. Kids went low.

Thought I might get stumped TFTC!

Scooby Doo found it easily after a little climb.

ANTS EVERYWHERE , especially where I don't want them.
Had to do a little dance around and spray myself all over with areograurd again.
They are only little buggers but they bite.

Great cache hiding spot with lots of little hidey holes.
Found easily and signed.
Put back very carefully.

Not too tricky. TFTC.

Didn't stump us

TFTC

Using the hint, I was soon onto this easy hide, 6 down 9 to go.

Our 6694th overall find.

Today we completed the series with the three girls. A great day for a ride. No issues tracking this one down, it was fairly obvious where it was going to be.

Thanks cccritter7 for the cache.

Nice walk

Afternoon Delight!

While checking out new caches I noticed that some of our finds aren't showing up as being found. Seems I hadn't been saving the logs before Ieaving the pages on my iPad, so I'm going back and logging them properly. Not sure when I found this cache, but our name will be found in your logbook. Thanks for the cache!

Found it!

TFTC!
=O)

Replaced cache. Berocca Container. Happy Caching!

no luck with this one today i must have just got in and missed you this afternoon before you replaced oh well will have to return

This is the second time I have been here its not here please have a look

DNF at 8:25:13 AM. This was a bit odd. There was only one spot for the cache it seemed, but there was nothing in that structure.

nice walk with some beautiful views. tftc!

Yes.. Im a little bothered that this cycleway was started the month /after/ I'd left the area... :/

The premise of this series was that it'd be a really cool little ride and a quick string of caches, today ,for me it was an annoying series plagued, literally by mosquitos and Muggled(?) caches. I don't often complain but have to this time, owner maintenance is required due to several missing caches as already logged by others. And top of my so and so day, the battery went flat real quick and my backups hadn't been charged [:(!]
[red]Could Not Find It ... at 11:40 AM ... [/red]

[size=2][blue] This log was posted with CacheSense v2.8.14 beta, available on Android and BlackBerry ![/blue][/size]

Replaced container, same coordinates and same hiding spot. Please tread lightly to avoid suspicion from muggles.

Think you need to have a look at this one it's not here

Didnt have any luck with this one today, we'll move on to the next and come back later.

Didn't find with Kano555

Nice country view of the small valley. Dropped off a trackable - sg6rkt.

Headed to Newcastle to do the Wallsend to Glendale Power Trail.
Enjoyed the walk on such a beautiful.
TFTC cccritter7

We were able to meet up with friends DiMorgan and got together to do some caching around the Newcastle area. It was a fun day out and this was one of the caches we were able to find.
Thanks to cccritter7.

Quick find while continuing on the enjoyable walk.

On fire!

Quick find, TFTC

Another one and still moving along swiftly

Great view from where this cache is.

Thanks!

Today I had the opurtunity to get back here and pick up the remaining caches on my bike.

I have to say it wasn't that easy on the bike as I had to unclip, reclip my shoes, put the bike down, pick the bike up, every couple hundred metres or so.

None the less, I had a great time. TFTC's.

A really great power trail for our first - nice scenery, cows, horses, ponies, plenty of caches, and easy hides. Very enjoyable experience for the whole family. Thanks for bringing us on this great walk. Dropped trackable.

great walk and a nice day. TFTC.

Reperio at 1900.

Had to work all day today and didn't finish until after the sun went down...and still needed to find a cache for today...so I returned to the power trail with my head light and headed to the next in line in this series. Being such a great trail, I didn't need to use the light until I was at GZ...and didn't take long to find the cache. Really enjoyed the walk along here at night.

Gratias cccritter7.

A very nice walk with friends and their 4 daughters. They are going to start Geocaching now have them hooked by this walk. We met cccritter7 during our walk had just replaced cache No.7

A quick find to interrupt our bike ride. Thanks for the hide.

A pleasant walk on a pleasant day. About an hour 40 from the first to the bonus. Thanks.

Found 11:50, we decided to walk this trail to walk off breakfast and kill some time prior to heading out to the HISS, to watch the Melbourne Ice win their third AIHL championship in a row

TNLN, CSI=2, thanks cccritter7.

Found it on a fathers day stroll. Tftc!

We started the trail at 10.30am and finished at 1pm. We took the geo-dog Smelly Ellie with us. It was quite an easy walk between caches with Mrs C looking at ALL the rocks along the way. We greatly enjoy powertrails and appreciate the work that goes into placing them. Thanks guys for the exercise and caches.

Nice Cache, TFTC
