Logs
Picking up a few of these hides along Windsor Road and just had an dnf down the road. Found this one but was in poor nick with no cap on the container and a rotten log. Had a spare so replaced with new container and log hopefully a bit drier for longer. Paying it forward in the hope a finder does that to one of mine if needed. Pic attached old vs new. TFTC
Mr Minion and I wanted to test out our new bikes today, so headed down to do this trail. Sadly, a lot of the caches are in need of some TLC. Thanks for the cache Morley196 tnln replaced as found sl
The seventh find on a hike from Rouse Hill to Vineyard. I've logged it out of order of my finds.
The cache container has a damaged lid and I tried to seal the end with some gladwrap. It will definitely need replacement.

Powered along Old Windsor Road with Jennyfromthefarm on a nice sunny day. Only one or two people about and lots of cars passing by oblivious to what we were doing. Lots of interesting history to read about along the way. Lots of interesting history to read about along the way.
Log wet and ruined when we found. Can provide photo if needed as couldn't sign. Thanks for placing all these caches Morley196.

Today I'm getting some exercise and plowing through this power trail. I found a couple of caches near by for my birthday in Feb of 2020 and have had my eyes on the rest. My plan is to walk one way, find caches when I feel like stopping and on the way back pick up the ones I skipped.
This is #6 and the log was unsingable soggy mush and the container lid is very cracked
But it did have another snail friend!

Log and container are looking quite worse for wear. Won't be long until they both need replacing. TFTC
Father's Day means breakfast in Rouse Hill Town Centre then off to find some GC. Another easy find by gremlinkid #1. TFTC.
Found today on a bike trip with geofriends. This was 1 of 32 finds. Watch out for the angry alpaca on the cycleway! TFTC
Found this cache quickly and easily in the right place according to the hint. Signature on the log, job done! TFTC.
Out for a geocaching trip with the geo-sister (huntale) while down on holidays. Managed half what we wanted to do on the bikes will do the other half on another trip. Tftc
TFTC, quick n easy, did my duties and off to the next one on this early morning find and before the summer heat kicks in.
Out with Trodectus to grab some caches for the mystery at the museum challenge. Walked from previous cache. Quickly located cache, log signed and returned. TFTC
4th find with Coybear2000 while out getting some caches for the afternoon. We managed 16 finds, 3 DNFs and one that we couldn't attempt due to muggles. We parked in a nearby side street and walked along Windsor Rd. To save time we signed as CB2M and TD. The states of the caches were variable; some containers were missing lids, some logs were damp and one was even mush. It was a long walk with light rain at times, but we enjoyed it. TFTC.
Today I headed out to Dural for the Amateur Radio NSW (HAM Radio) bi-monthly Trash & Treasure sale at Quarry Road and, after a fun filled morning of HAM radio junk scrounging and a nice BBQ lunch with lots of friendly chit chat, it was time to get caching and collect enough caches to enable us to complete the Mystery at the Museum cache challenge with the collected jewels safely returned to the vault. I had packed the folding bike into the geomobile and planned a "ride & grab" caching raid along the Windsor Road cache trail, and maybe a few extras around the Rouse Hill area, to give us the needed minimum of 23 finds. This was the 14th of 27 finds, and 4 DNF's, for the day.
This was the next one along the trail, and another quick "find & sign" before riding off to the next cache along the trail. TFTC Morley196.

Today I go on in this series. It started raining. Thanks for this cache.
Greetings from Czech Republic.
Greetings from Czech Republic.
On a really hot 40-degree afternoon I set out from McGraths Hill, and walked the Windsor Road series from that point all the way to Rouse Hill Town Centre, picking up every cache in range that I could get my hands on.
It took four-ish hours, and I consumed about two liters of liquids (a combination of water and electrolytes), then proceeded to sweat it all out.
Thanks heaps for placing the caches along this trail - as sweltering as it was, t’was a nice glimpse into the relatively quiet northwest before it all falls into the inevitable suburban sprawl. The sun was amazing despite being hot and I had some proper Aztec Camera vibes going the distance as the sun made its way to the horizon.
Another quick find, although the watch and map told me that I should really get going and cache harder!

Geodad wanted to go bike riding. Geomum wanted to find some caches. A compromise was made on this cool December Saturday and we did both. We all enjoyed our bike ride and the Geogirls enjoyed finding the caches. Our 10th of 14 finds for the afternoon. TFTC!

A great day for a bike ride in western Sydney with my granddaughter. Thanks to the COs for all the caches... and to those who helped maintain them.
We left early this morning to get as many caches as we could along this trail. Ended up getting just over 80 so it was a very good day. Thanks for all the caches.
Always love caching with this group, a fun day out on this trail chasing planets. Thanks to all COs for the caches.
Out with the gang collecting caches along Windsor and Richmond roads. It was a medium long pedal but a great day. Disappointingly we had to replace a few containers along the way but no biggie either since the effort should breath some life back into the trail. TFTC.
Out on a bicycle caching run with geobuddies along both the Richmond and Windsor Rd trails and also grabbing any other caches in-between.
Overall our day was a whooping 10hrs on the bikes and we all enjoyed every pedel of the way.
We found a total of 87 caches today so I apologise for my repeated logs,
Thanks to all the cache owners for providing us with a great day out.

I’ve been keen to start on this Power trail for some time now.
Today I set off on a two hour public transport journey to reach the southern end of the trail.
I arrived a little later than I’d hoped due to life getting in the way of caching this morning.
Great history along this trail and a nice walk.

Out for a bike ride with SeeMyShell this morning.. The track took a while because we got distracted by the two pubs along the way, and probably spent more time in there than riding the bikes ...It is Christmas time after all Most caches were found in good order with 52 finds and 6 DNFs for me today.. Thanks for the caches and adventure!

Out Caching with EatSleepCacheRepeat on bikes all hides were quickly found, with the exception of a couple of DNFs

This promises to be a long day on the heat on foot - walking from Rouse Hill to Windsor - at least it gets me some calorific credit for Christmas!

Been wondering how many a solo cacher could reasonably find in daylight hours. Made an attempt today to celebrate a major life milestone. Started near the South end of the Old Windsor Road 'power trial' and cycle-cached my way North. The initial target was to make 40 but managed to complete that before noon. So continued on to Windsor. 50 finds came up just before Windsor with still a few hours left before needing to get back to the Eastern Suburbs for an engagement. So picked off a few more caches on either side on the ride back to the car. Tally for the day (in 7 hours 45 minutes): 63 finds and 7 DNFs. A big thank you to Morley196 for making this outing possible.

Our first time in this part of the country, and what a great way to see the area and learn about it. Always love a series we can do on our bikes.
Just a short peddle to this one for a quick find.
A muggle lady watering her garden not interested in us.

OCW Coastblue Big day as we tackled the Windsor Power trail. Coastblue had already found a few so I got started early and caught up until she joined me. Overall I found 46 with 7 DNFs and a few we didn't go for as they'd been muggled. Great day out, we managed to avoid the rain and finish before sunset! Cache# 321 TFTC
On my way to Windsor today and I stopped off to grab a few caches along the way and this was one of them.
After parking nearby it was a short walk stroll to GZ where the cache was soon in hand.
Once the log was signed the cache was then returned as found.

This one was found quickly but has a soaking wet log. Needs replacing as it's pretty destroyed. TFTC
On a walk from Windsor to Rouse Hill today, grabbing caches on the powertrail.
The pattern continues, both in terms of the hiding style and the finding style.
All good here. TFTC, Morley196!

First big caching day of spring and what better way to enjoy the weather than with an epic bike cache trail. Team MavEtJu and I signed the logs as E+E for ease...

I always look at the very old building opposite as I drive on this road and wonder about its history. Now I know!
