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.

Finishing this series in reverse order. Recommended since it mostly downhill which is nice when there is no shade
Another easy one. Covered it a little more securely as it was in full view. TFTC
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
Again, quite a quick find, which we were pleased about given the ever-increasing clouds above us. The Kimble wondered whether we should head back to the car at this point but we decided to pick up the pace and press onto the next one.
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! This one was lying totally exposed but we made sure it was hidden better after we left. TFTC.
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
Love the track, you would never know it was there except for cccritter7 bringing us there, thank you.
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.

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.

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.

6468 + 819 = 7287. 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. Walked up to Number 7 and finally caught up with a bunch of cachers who were signing the logs just ahead of me today. Nice to meet you guys and I hope the familiy continues to enjoy Geocaching ! Found in the open and re-hid after we all signed it.
Thanks again cccritter7 !!
TNLN - TFTC !!

Fitzy caught up to us here. I had left my drink bottle back at number 5, on the seat, so had sent Geoson#1 back to get it, waiting for him, and also this suspect muggle to walk past, trying to look like we needed to be standing where we were, Fitzy walks up and says, "Are we doing the same thing here". Geoson #2 has flipped every rock there, Fitzy goes straight to where i am thinking, no luck, then i think Fitzy and I both see it at the same time, out in the open. Logged then replaced where we all thought it should have been. Nice to finally meet a fellow Geocacher on the trails. We still waited for Geoson#1 to get back to us, Fitzy walked on, and we left him to it, so we all could enjoy the joy of the hunt.
Found this one fairly easily
There were lots of rocks around the rail but some nearby looked a bit out of place.
Like they had been put there on purpose.
Great Hide ... Now up hill a bit

Our 6716th overall find.
After a long day today with no lunch I decided to take a walk after work and this was just the ticket. Thanks for checking the caches so quickly last time after we visited. You guys have done such a great job on this series. Now I just need to find the last one.

Ride, stop, ride, stop, find some easy hides, what could be better? 7 down 8 to go.
Found it this time!
Thanks to the owner for the maintenance!
Beautiful sunset with perfect company!

We looked in the spot described by the hint but they were scattered about and we couldn't spot anything.
Thanks anyway cccritter7.

With a few DNF's in a row, perhaps the cache owner could check on this one?
Could not find this one today & have had to postpone due to fading light... Obvious spot at the end of the railing with a pile of rocks, much like a leprechauns pot of gold! But we are goldless. Maybe there's a rich muggle out there...
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!
Hi,
Sorry, I totally forgot to log my tour last week.
Really tried to find this one several times considering it was supposed to be an easy find, but no. Couldn't find it.

Found at 8:29 AM GAFF1. Needed a quick find now so that the mozzies didn't catch up and thankfully there it was in nice logical spot.
Thanks cccritter7.
Thanks cccritter7.
I used to ride this old steamtram line before the rest of you lightweights needed your /precious/ man-made cycleway...
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 [:(!]

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.
Thanks to cccritter7.
Still full of energy, possible position was sighted, the race was on. Enjoying the accurate hints and quick finds.
This was missing last time but was here today in a rather obvious place. Hope it lasts. Thanks for the hide.
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.
Reperio at 1100.
Well it was back out to he power trail to pick up another cache in this series...and another day in the 100 day challenge. Parked near number three and headed off down the trail in light rain where the cache was soon discovered.
Gratias cccritter7.

FTF new cache 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
Had a good look around, but with a nice pile of small rocks in the obvious place and no cache, we had to move on. Will look again if confirmed by another cacher.
Hmm - obvious pile there, as if they'd been placed, but none that looked like a log. Lucky that it wasn't a significant digit for the final.
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.

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.
Beauitful day today, go out for a day at Wallsend area, Great easy stroll on nice path from 1 to 15, approx 2km... Enjoyed... easy to find as hide very well, thanks
