OCW with Calypso62 today to try and reach the summit of Acongachua.
This was a quick find.
The log needs to be replaced.
TFTC.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

There were no visitors here so we could have a leisurely search and soon found it. Unfortunately it had not been well protected from the rain and the log was very wet, but we made a mark for our log. Thanks for the hide.

A quick stop here before tackling the nearby Adventure Lab on my first foray into this part of the world for over 4 months thanks to the enforced restrictions on travel outside one's LGA. No problem making the find (it helped, I guess, that the visitor centre is currently still closed) and signing the log, but note that the logsheet and baggy are in pretty poor condition and could do with some TLC.

Thanks for the smiley sevabo.

Good hiding place

Good spot

Nice easy one to start the day, the weather has made the inside quite rusty!

Nice

Nice find my little geokid tftc

Cheeky hide!!

Found it!

Went to location but could not find. The GPS was continuously taking me to 2 different directions back and forth. One second it would say I was 1m away then it would change to 10m away in a different direction. Had a quick look around the over grown weeds and grass but couldn’t find anything. No hint makes it harder.

Inside of cache needs maintaining and a bit of a freshen up. Thankfully it was outside the gates as it is all closed up. TFTC

Thanks!

Quick grab, was all wet inside so didn’t log.

TFTC,

Came out here today for a Christmas lunch close by with the Riley Car Club.

We needed 1 cache today for the personal challenge we are doing with Grub Fred. While he set us a daily total of 3 caches a day, we are aiming for 5 and we should both achieve this by the end of February 2021.

Visited trackables.

After lunch nearby, came across here and thought we couldn't gain entry, but soon realised that we could, a quick find, stamped log and replaced. Thanks to sevabo, wishing you a very Christmas, hope to catch up again, soon.

Good find no fire ants now

Out geocaching with my boys for the day ( _Kade_ & _Troy_ ) Perfect activity for school holidays & a nice cool day to do it. Lovely little cache. Thank you! TNLN, SL. Placed back exactly as found.

TFTCM, quick n easy, did my duties and replaced cache as found. Need to cool off a bit as the scourging heat is already starting to kick in.

Nice cache with plenty room for swaps

My last attempt on this cache many months ago wasn't a success. I had spent a while looking around, but nothing showed itself and eventually, with the rest of the family waiting in the car and getting irritated, I gave up.

In the meantime I see the cache has been moved to a slightly different position.

Today I was on my own, just me on my bicycle. I was trying to get in a bit of mileage, so I opted to come out here and see whether I could make a find this time around. I did meander around a little bit, but soon I spotted a likely place and there was the cache.

I'm really glad to tick this one off my list and to have a yellow smiley on the map now.

Well that was easier than last.time we tried.

Quick park and grab

Out with Trodectus to grab some caches for the mystery at the museum challenge. Walked from previous cache, close to the end of our walk. Located cache after a bit of searching, our GPS had cache about 7 meters from GZ, log signed and returned. TFTC

14th 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 arrived at GZ, but our units wouldn't settle. Mine kept sending me to the fence line, even suggesting that it could be on the other side. We spent a good few minutes searching before being in the right position such that on turning around we noticed something different which turned out to be the hide. 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 1st of 27 finds, and 4 DNF's, for the day.

After parking the geomobile in the Rouse Hill House & Farm Visitor Centre's carpark, I unloaded & unfolded the bike and then set off northward along the bike path, stopping just outside the Visitor Centre's entry gates for this one. A quick "find & sign" and then it was off to the next one. TFTC sevabo.

Find #3311

Came at a quiet time of the day and found the cache hide easily. Name was added to the log and all was covered again before leaving. All good. TFTC.

Another one bites the dust

TFTC

Out with family collect a few caches

Found one more

This is weird! This cache is coming up as disabled but I can't see a log where it was disabled. Could the CO check this out, please?

Umm strange! Enabled now.

WE go for a cache search. Is beautiful, the sun burns. Thanks for this cache.

Greetings from Czech Republic.

Woohoo! Found it with BrodyT2010

BrodyT2010 and Pulloa.. last seen knee deep in snake infested grass!!

Logging from a previous find as we have changed name from Team Noah

Quick find, but as the light was fading fast I had to hurry up and get to Rouse Hill TC for some well deserved rest. Thanks For The Cache!

Quick park and grab
Thanks for the cache

Another day OCW marj01. After a very early start from the eastern subs we arrived at Ebenezer at first light to commence the day. During the course of the day we visited 69 trads, 4 multis, 2 puzzle and 2 letterbox caches. With only a handfull of dnfs it was a successfull day, with the majority of the caches being found in a reasonably short time. Thanks to all the COs for hiding and maintaining their caches and providing us with a fun day. Cheers oldmorty.

Took us a bit, but we eventually found it. TFTC

Nice

thanks..

I had a specific type of cache in mind and when I couldn't find one I broadened my horizons and quickly made the spot. TFTC!

Companions: None
Weather: Sunny but windy winter's afternoon
Cache condition: Good

I first attempted this cache on the outward journey, but a group of schoolchildren were in the park, so I decided to give up pretty quickly. When I returned on the way back a guy was closing the gates, so I waited for him to move out of sight before re-starting the search. This time I was able to view things from different angles and soon spotted the container. TNLNSL, 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.

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

A slight detour from the Windsor road power trail.....this place looks great, I’ll definitely be back for a visit to learn more history about the area

Tftc

Nice visitors centre, and a nice quick find 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.

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

A quick find on what promises to be a long day on the heat on foot - at least it gets me some calorific credit for Christmas!
