Scaled up! Riverstone, New South Wales, Australia
By Morley196 on 11-Sep-12. Waypoint GC3WJMQ

this has been difficult to maintain as the council has kept removing the caches. so archiving it

Hi Morley196,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 4 weeks) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 4 weeks to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

The terrain may have changed here. I added my name to the DNF list.

Wow what a day. Consulting the hint, again, we couldn’t see any “bushes” only loads of small weeds. Yet another DNF so we are giving up, this is not as successful an International Geocaching Day as we would have liked at all! At least we aren’t the first for the DNFs but still

A string of DNFs and nothing found even after checking the hint, might be time for a CO check.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

No luck today.

Spotted the camo

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 cache #9 for me today and the first find of the return walk. I chose to walk to near the next viable parking spot further up the track towards Vineyard, now headed back to the car to move it on to the next best parking spot.
ANYWAY, I like this container and the hint is no longer true, you have to leave the path to access the new container
Tftc

Checked and it was missing, new cache placed. Good to go.

Looked in so many places but couldn’t find it today. I’ll look again next time I’m down here. I’m from the Hunter Valley

Ended up finding it about 15 metres south.
Thanks for the excuse to go out exercising along Windsor Road. 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

One of the 32 which I found today while riding with friends. Thank you!

Great container! TFTC.

Out caching with the gang on the bikes! TFTC

Nice quick one but had to widen my search.TFTC.

A quick find here. Thanks For The Cache

had a look the other week, still in place- its different

Couldn’t find

Found.

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, early morning find, less muggles and before the summer heat kicks in.

Found 15 meters away using geo sense

Found with bedlem2 & kazzacosmo

Searched and searched read a few logs then spotted it

that had us searching a bit

TFTC Easy but not

Found it. TFTH

Found it, thanks Morley196 for bringing us here.

Found with mhoneybadger

Great container!
Found with Irvine123! TFTC.

Out with Trodectus to grab some caches for the mystery at the museum challenge. Walking back to car, we had given this a miss due to workmen in the area do a bit of landscape tidying, started searching and widened area based on hint. T came up with the find which was about 17 meters from where our GPS had GZ, quirky cache container. Log signed and returned. TFTC

Last 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. We had planned on trying this one earlier, but there were workmen right at GZ. Thankfully on our return they had gone. It was starting to get dark but we decided to search anyway. After some minutes we read the hint, which didn't quite make sense. We also read a few previous logs. We decided to expand our search area and eventually spotted the hide about 15m away from where our units placed GZ. After signing the log and replacing the unusual container we headed back to the car. 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 10th of 27 finds, and 4 DNF's, for the day.

This was the next one along the trail, and it took a little bit longer to find than all the previous ones. Initially looked in all the wrong places, before uncovering the hide and having the unusual cache container in hand. Have seen one of these before, but not one of this size. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. Now it's off to the next cache along the trail. TFTC Morley196.

Find #3320

A few more caches on this trail beckoned today with the promise of some more smiley faces on the map. All that we looked for were found, each log was signed and each cache was replaced as found. TFTC.

Find #: 2,033
Companions: None
Muggles: Traffic galore
Weather: Grey autumn morning
Cache condition: Good

My son's school had arranged a parent / child camp in Colo River and we needed to be there mid afternoon, so I decided to take the day off work and take the journey slowly, finding caches along the way. I had missed a few of the caches of the WFH series when I was last this way, so decided to fill in those gaps that seemed fillable.

I parked at the nearby road and headed to GZ. I was slightly confused by the instructions but it made sense when I saw the interesting container. TNLNSL, thanks for the cache

Tftc

TFTC! Very cool container, looks like a custom 3D print.

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.



This was a beautiful little find! Gosh, that’s an ingenious hide, that one! Gotta love how that’s constructed. Sorry, that was legitimately a highlight of this long arduous walk in the heat. Wow!

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 6th of 14 finds for the afternoon. We found this right next to the path in a not so well hidden location. We signed the log and returned it to a better concealed spot nearby. TFTC!

Quick park and grab
Never seen one of these cache containers before
Thanks for the cache

OCW Sensible Shoes and Shoes Junior. We were looking for this cache for a long time. Annoyingly it was right there in front of our eyes! TFTC

A great find after The 10th Annual Hills Geocaching Event. We found the container, signed the log, then replaced as found. TFTC.

After hearing about the replacement container from Morley196 at the nearby event, we headed off afterwards to find it. Mr S had previously found this one, but Little Shoes and Shoes Junior hadn't. We found a container which was in keeping with the original style of hide for this series, but it didn't contain our log or all the recent ones (perhaps we found some sort of throwdown/predecessor/???). Knowing that this wasn't the container we were looking for, we extended our search area and eventually found the new one, consistent with the current hint. We all signed both of the logs and left both containers as found.

My 100th find and what a smart one tftc

Celebrating Marsbar’s birthday! Aiming for one for each year! 18th find of the day!
Clever clever! Well hidden in plain sight.
TFTC

New container, good to go.

New hide, moved slightly to improve hide.

New Container complete will be replaced soon

Seems maintenance is required after council has been through.

Searched high and low. No find

cashe and log in good condition

We think we checked every bush but no luck. Probably in the one we didn't check.

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.

A fun day of caching with friends around Windsor.
OCWF&F SL TFTH

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.
TFTC

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.

Not 100 percent this is found but I found a container exactly at hint indicated spot- top us missing, I added a page from my notebook. Might need a CO check

Tftc

No luck for me today

Needing some exercise I headed out early today and after parking the geomobile headed off to grab these caches along the pathway. Lots of interresting hides and a few DNF's to add to a fun day. After finding each cache and signing the logs all were returned as found.

My apologies for the generic logs.

TFTC Morley196

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!

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

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!

A quick find after I let the GPS settle and it moved me slightly further west! TNLN TFTC

Cache still there not sure y last few missed it

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.
- - -
3rd DNF for the day. Guess I started with a bad attitude seeing the recent DNFs - and those dry grass blades are razor sharp!

No luck today

Searched high and low again to no success again at this site.

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# 324 TFTC

We found the cache container to be cracked and phrone to the weather. We replaced it with a mint tin painted black. We haven't placed any caches, but we come prepared to maintain them, as a show of appreviation to COs. TFTC

Had no problems in finding this cache. The cache was found quickly and easily after a short search. The log was signed and the cache was replaced as found. Thank you Morley196 for placing this cache.

The container is still broken, but otherwise the cache is in good order. TFTC!

Coastblue helped with quick find but can b easily spot next to path

g=5

This one took a bit longer than usual for the trail! The container is broken. TFTC!

found it look for 43

Container is broken and the log is wet.

No find on this one for us today

Found it but in need of some repairs.

Container has been broken and log pretty wet. Just signable. TFTC

Searched all the hinted places to no avail and the Garmin did not help either.

Today was the day for the Windsor to Rouse Hill trail.

I started off by parking on Court Street in Windsor, unfolding the push-bike and get on the road. In total I found 67 caches, and 5 non founds. At the end of the day, the GPS showed a total track distance of 18.6 km.

Another good find! Thanks for the cache!

Found it !!

Thanks for the great hide

On a walk from Windsor to Rouse Hill today, grabbing caches on the powertrail.
The find in itself was an easy one, with a little variation from the good old pattern to keep the brains fresh and going. Noticed also some kind of an apparent clue among the logsheets and wrote down the detail for potential later use.
All good here. TFTC, Morley196!

Another find on this excellent powertrail. Found 70 out of 71 today with Brewmaker on an excellent day out. Please excuse the generic logs.

TFTC

Found it while attempting this power trail with delloro. We managed to grab 70 from 71 today!
A fantastic series Morley196.

TFTC

Have been wanting to tackle this L-O-N-G line of caches for quite some time and finally had an opportunity to get out today. No muggles about, so not a worry there. We drove up from Sydney and do not have bicycles, so parking along this route is at a premium. Found what we could and look forward to returning another day to do some more. Outstanding job, Morley196, on these caches. A lot of time and work must have been expended in getting these made; 'planted'; activated and put up on the site for all of us geocachers to enjoy. We Thank You Very Much !! SL; TFTC.

GeoDirk is skiing with the scouts. HanorahTLG has a Harry Potter weekend with her aunt. Happy father's day everybody! Out caching with Ziggyau

Find 18 of 63 for today! It was at exactly the coordinates provided, despite our efforts trying to find it everywhere else!

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...

(18 of 62 today) This one was a little tricky with so many options to choose from. Also the hint is interpreted more easily if you're taking the Windsor to Rouse Hill route rather than, as we were, doing it in reverse.Thanks Morley196.

No. 701

I came by today to grab this one to continue the streak. I found it without any trouble, and signed and replaced as found. Thanks for the cache Morley, and for going to the trouble of setting up this great series!

Found with sesblocker.
We travelrd from Sutherland Shire to attempt this series on a gorgeous Winter's day.

Had to look a little for this one but I got it. Thanx

15th Find for the day along Windsor Rd. Thanks Morley196. Enjoyed rainy day.
