Wallsend to Glendale PT11 Elermore Vale, New South Wales, Australia
By cccritter7 & 88jaz88 on 20-Jul-12. Waypoint GC3QWA8

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.

Easy one.

Missed it a few weeks ago but found it quickly the second time on a very hot bike ride.

After failing water way I went straight to this one.
Saw a nice sized black snake (didn't see the colour of its belly) half way between them.
This cache was nicely hidden, managed to find without the clue even.
Thanks a bundle for this bundle of caches!

This one had us baffled for half an hour. All 3 of us had moved the same obvious rock. GarbageMan did a great job of re-hiding it! We replaced it where we found it but looking back through the older logs, the cache is no longer at waist level. Happy hunting! Time was running out so we had to finish on this one so we will be back next week to finish the rest of the series. TNLNSL / TFTC

Was found exposed on the ground - replaced where I think it was meant to be.

Quick find tftc

Quick & easy find on a great little Power Trail! TNLNSL / TFTC

good hide

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

decided to finish off this series today. There were a lot of triangular rocks out here. took a few minutes to find. TFTC.

Aaaand, so it ended. We didn't have a chance to sign this log, as a group of muggles on bikes passed us just before the heavens opened. I jotted down the clue, and we'll come back to sign our names when we finish off the series. It was quite upsetting to get this far and not be able to reach the end, but them's the breaks. Thankfully the storm was only noisy, not torrential, but even running between the (very large) drops had us soaked by the time we'd got halfway back to the car. For the record, wet gym clothing - especially joggers - is not in the least bit comfortable. Next time we'll do this on a totally sunny day. As it was, it was good training on the way back for the upcoming Run Newcastle event, so thanks for that; I look forward to completing this series soon!

Bit trickier but still quick find

well hidden took me a while because i was looking in the wrong spot

Another less than 20 second find haha love it

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

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.

Seems like a fitting number

Pleasant walk on a Tuesday arvo. Thanks for the series.

Yay its not a tree

#190

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.

And fossils.

6472 + 819 = 7291. 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. Quick find for this one - thats an amazing house nearby built on the raised area !

Thanks again cccritter7 !!

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Cracks there everywhere.

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

Mums on a roll.

[:x]

Thats a crack. Geomum found it.

Enjoying the path Thanks!

Hmmmm there are lots of cracks here.
But Scooby Doo soon found the right crack but I had to help in get it out.
We signed the log and tried to put it back.
There was a little bit of a land slide and I had to dig a little hole to try to keep it in the correct spot.
Hopefully it stays there.
TFTC This one was a bit trickey.

Finished the series today. Tftc

Quick find. TFTC.

Our 6718th 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.

Thanks cccritter7 for the cache.

Between a rock and a great place? 11 down 4 to go.

Super speedy with SuperDog Max on the job with us!

Looked and looked but no find.

Thanks anyway cccritter7.

With a few DNF's in a row, perhaps the cache owner could check on this one?

Nice walk

Cache has been checked. Still in place. Very well hidden. At waist level. Happy caching.

Hi,
I think the rain hide it pretty well. It was only pure luck that I saw a bit of the cache so I could dig it out. I put it back in a similar way you have hidden the others.
TFTC!
=O)

had no luck finding this one had a good look around but found nothing will have to come back and try again.

DNF at 8:52:21 AM. Gosh now this is getting serious! Looked all over the wall until I could not bear it any more with the mozzies.

Nice find

nice walk with some beautiful views. tftc!

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.

Went for a walk to find part of this power trail.
Nice little path for a stroll.

Reperio at 1100.

Had some friends up from Victoria, and they were keen to go for a walk...so I suggested to head out to the cycleway...and stopped by to grab this one to pick up a cache for the day. This was the first time I've walked the entire length of the cycleway.

Gratias cccritter7.

Geodad found it this time I was so disappointed I was looking in the wrong crack

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.

great walk and a nice day. TFTC.

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 12:10, 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, Great Cycleway, TFTC

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
