Father's Day means breakfast in Rouse Hill Town Centre then off to find some GC. This GC came complete with slug, water and paper mulch. Desperately in need of some maintenance!!! Container is missing the lid. Didn't sign log as Gremlinkid #1 was too grossed out by state of the paper and I don't blame her. See the water on the ground in front of her... that came from inside the container!

Need to do maintenance run

Out caching with the gang on the bikes! TFTC

Found today on a bike trip with geofriends. This was 1 of 32 finds. Watch out for the angry alpaca on the cycleway!

This took us a while to locate, it did not line up with the coordinates or the clue. I suspect that this might have been moved from it's original spot. I did leave it as I found it, but may be good for CO to check next time they are in the area. No rush, people will still find it as it is for now.

TFTC!!

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

Wasn’t where the hint suggested. Found by geodaughter. TFTC.

lid missing but cache in good condition.

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

2nd 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 16th of 27 finds, and 4 DNF's, for the day.

After a DNF at the last one I was back to finding caches with this one, with a quick "find & sign" and then onto the next one along the cache trail. TFTC Morley196.

Today I go on in this series. Ceases to rain. Thanks for this cache.

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.



Welp, with no-one popping out from the heat I think I got the notables done without suspicion. (Let’s be honest though, I’m the lone guy walking this road right now, I attract plenty of suspicion, primarily from people who think I’m hitch-hiking)

#245
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 13th of 14 finds for the afternoon. Cute goats! TFTC!

Quick park and grab

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.

A nice gift indeed tftc

Nice story TFTC

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

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. TNLN TFTC

No 2 for this series today. Dogs came out to bark but I dead gone quickly. Continuing what I started six months ago. Thanks for the cache

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.

23rd find of the day. Just as I was about to make the grab, the postal service lady (in red P-plates even!) stopped at the driveway to drop off some mail. Must be wondering what a cyclist is doing in the drain. TFTC

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.
A couple of kids and their mums were quite interested in what we were doing, and they were fairly vocal about it. Luckily they were the four legged variety, so no problem!
TFTC

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# 318 TFTC

Quick find, threw some camo over it, but still easy to find for a geocacher. TFTC

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 and an interesting anecdote about the history of this place! Thanks for the cache!

On a walk from Windsor to Rouse Hill today, grabbing caches on the powertrail.
This one took a little while. I had a quick look but got nothing out of that. Checked the hint but couldn't piece it together as it was pretty relative to the environment. But then went through the options again one by one and there it was, in the place I had checked earlier on without realising what I must have seen already then. Such is live...
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.

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!

Nice and easy. Thanx

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 23 of 63 for today!

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...

(23 of 62 today) Another quick find on the trail today thanks to the hint. Thanks Morley196.

Wow, a farm and an enormous one for those times as a Wedding present! Haven't heard of anything so generous these days.
An easy find but the lid was very hard to remove. Hope I put it back so its easier for the next finder.

Out today for a few caches I had
Missed. Quick find TFTC

Found it, Logged it, NEXT!!!

Well this is the day. I have been planned for a few weeks. I have borrowed a bike, helmet and puncher kit. But there is nothing I can do with my 52 year old leg that have not been on a bike for years. I have about 60 on the list for today a ride of about 28 km from Windsor to Rouse Hill and back. Thanks Morley196 for going to the trouble of placing all the cache with on the local history. Well done.
From all the caches I found I only found one clue for the mystery the was for the letter 5. I will need help to complete the mystery. TFTC.

Out and about in the area today finding caches.
After finding the nearby challenge cache and few trads on the way I am ready to tackle a section on the power trail.
All caches were quick finds, co-ords awesome and so could keep the heart rate up walking the line. [^]
I managed about 37 of them in total. Walking nearly 15km in the process (out and back to the car)
Thanks for the cache.

Being a lovely sunny day it was decided to collect a few caches in the Windsor to Rouse Hill series. This cache was not hard to find, Signed the log and replaced as found. Thank you Morley196 for the cache and the series.

#3032 - oh, took a while, but the steel upright held the clue. Many thanks to the cache owner ***Morley196*** for establishing and maintaining this cache, along with this bike path series.

About 1.5 weeks ago I was looking at the geocaching map of Sydney in search of a nice trail.
I noticed this trail and wanted to know more about it.
After a quick investigation I found out that it was possible to do the trail while walking.
The problem could be how to get there. Luckily the Opal travel app was of great help.
The best option was to start at the end of the trail near Castlebrook Memorial park, a 50 minute bus ride from Sydney. But only if I would not travel on Sunday as the way back from Windsor would take me more then 2.5 hours due to railway work.
So I decided to travel on Anzac Day.
The problem would be the bonus, because I planned to start at the last cache of the trail.
It turned out that the bonus puzzle coul be solved by looking at the cache descriptions of the caches along the trail. With the help of the offline viewing possibility of GSAk it was not difficult to solve the puzzle.
on Anzac Day I left my Appartment around 8:20 to catch the bus.
After arriving at the memorial park and a short walk I found my first cache around 09:30h and the last one around 15:30h. Some caches I cold not find because they were gone or were to well hidden.
2 caches I could not look for because people in the neighborhood were watching me.
1 cash I did not attempt due to a parked police car close to the cach location with the officer in the car.
The search of the first cach of this serie I had to abort because I had to catch the train back to be back around 6pm.
At the end of the day I had walked more than 20 km's and had found 52 caches.
Most caches could be found quite easily but some took more time.
Some caches took more time to log than usual due to issues with my pen.
Thanks for this trail,

Easy find, Happy Easter!!

#2785 (35 of 50 today - am I mad?) (Streak day 287)

So, how to celebrate Leap Day? How do I mark this once in every 4 year opportunity - my first as I started caching in 2013?
I'd considered a few possibilities and decided I'd go for my most ever finds in a day. 50 looks like a nice round number.
I'd not tackled **Morley196's** Windsor Road previously - save for two caches grabbed when I was mining the Rouse Hill Regional Park. In fact I'd left it for such an attempt as this.

Even better, there was an event at both ends of the trail - one in the morning and one at night. Perfect!

So I started out by placing two caches of my own, one of which I submitted for publication (and was published later in the day), and one for which I still need to finalise the listing. Then I headed Windsor way to start my walking marathon - no bike for me!

At the end of the day I had my 50 caches - 48 traditionals and two events - and my fitness tracker assured me I'd walked 32,000 steps.
My only problem was getting back to the car. I ended up almost 8km from *The Hademobile*, and with no sign of buses or taxis, I simply walked back - grabbing over a heap of munzees on the way back.

And was right on time for the evening's event. Cache #2800 - not a coincidence!

Apologies in advance for totally cut and paste logs but anything else and I'll go mad! Any specific cache comments will be found under under the C&P heading.

Many thanks to **Morley196** for the trail. Incredible effort. Will add a smattering of faves as thanks.
And thanks also to the organisers and attendees at the events. Nice to meet you all again / for the first time* (delete whichever is not applicable).

So, the result of today was I have my final *Found Date*, my final *Hidden Date* and even finds on my own caches for 29 Feb. HUZZAH!

Please excuse me if I don't do something like this again in 4 years time.
