This was a fun one, thanks for placing and maintaining Croker Crew Really great morning out with BLM1973 & Co
With the overnight rain, the weather was slightly cooler, so we decided to walk along this track instead of our usual beach walk with the family dog. I also wanted to complete this trail of caches as I had found half of them on previous visits to Darwin. Found the cache lying on the ground in front of the dead tree so after signing, placed it upright against the back of the tree. The logbook is now full. Last find of this power trail series except for two DNFs. Tftc
Today we walked and walked in Casuarina Coastal Reserve along the many trails, finding Darwin's first 'power' trial and completing it along with some other caches in the reserve. Some caches were easier to find than others, some were in prickly bush areas, others searching amongst the debris. TFTC
We decided to go for a bike ride along this coastal track to the dripstone cliffs. Was quite a nice ride with no to many people on the track.
I was still looking for a hint item from the last cache when my partner found. There are only a few spaces left in the log.
Thanks for the cache

We parked our car today at the electrical substation as it seemed like the safest place before embarking on the power trail. OCW irondale. We found them all except number one.

Today we took an early morning bike ride towards Lee Point, where a small trail of tradis had been waiting for us for a long time.
Some of the caches in this series were found years ago. For the remaining tradis, the travel time just didn't fit; it was always the rain season.
But this time it was right. Arriving before the actual rainy season, the past rainy days did not bother us; instead, there are now no more bush fires and plant growth has not yet started.
Only one hiding place took me longer to find. The bin was newly laid and is a bit off the original coordinates.
This one was an easily found!
So after seven finds in this jungle, I was looking forward to heading home along the coast.
Thank you Croker Crew for laying and caring!

All good at GZ.
We signed under pprass, where we found a green bison which has been slightly mis-shaped due to the heat. Nonetheless all is safe and dry inside it.
Thanks Croker Crew. A really beautiful power trail and great walk.

On a trip around Australia with the family, out finding some caches this morning asking this beautiful track. Quick find here, tftc!
Found at 11:07:00 AM(t) GAFF1.
Wow - were we wrong with the co-ords and had to back track ages. Found the container, but I think this is the one where the clips broke off?
Thanks Croker Crew.

Spending a few days in the area. Thanks for hiding this cache and giving us the opportunity to explore . The 2017 photo helped.
Easy find ... once I located the right tree! Photo from 2017 helps show what to look for. And the wraiths didn't get my precious wedding band!
Container was kissed by the fire, slightly distorted but still sealed. Logbook good to go. TFTC!

Its been six years since I walked this track and had a DNF here, today on our bikes we thought we would try and rectify it. However it was not to be, don't know whar we are doing wrong here not to find it.
A frustrating morning on the bike so great to find this one along the track. I was initially looking a few metres away before spotting the cache. Good hide.
I'm loving the Tolkien references. Has been a few along the journey. Easy find TFTC!
Quick find. Ages to clear green ants off me, but I found it.

A few days in Darwin to get used to walking in the heat before hitting up the Kimberleys. Headed out to Lee Point in the late afternoon with an on-shore breeze, perhaps that was cheating. Anyway - enjoyed all the caches along here. My co-ords had me all over the shop so I just followed the hint and used a little logic and made the find easily.
Found with tassie expat while exploring this trail. Thanks for placing this series.
This area has seen some cyclone damage recently. Lots of trees that fitted the description, just had to work out which one was the least fresh. TFTC
Visiting Darwin and enjoying the bike trail today. Picking up a bunch of caches was fun too. TFTC
This was the slowest find for me today, I eventually spotted the little blighter by sneaking up on it from behind. No-one likes a Nazgul but the cache is a goody. My last one for this little section, I'll be back another day. Thanks Croker Crew.

This is a cache with a beautiful description and a lot of work put into it. In fact, I have to check if I've heard that song before.
I've taken on the track this morning with a bottle of water and some mossie spray in my backpack as instructed. All the boxes I found were in reasonably good condition. Some were a bit wet.
A couple of bikers and a lady with 2 friendly dogs was all I encountered along with plenty of birds and insects. Thanks for this trail!

Experimenting with the hints on this great bike ride and cache hunt. With Numchuck 1. TFTC
GPS on the Fritz searched and searched. Swatting mozzies and untangling legs from vines. But left with a smiley.

Decided to come out and do this walk before continuing our adventures down along the west coast. Thanks to all for placing and maintaining caches along this area.
We're continuing our wanderings across northern Australia after attending the Red Centre Experience over Easter. Today I had Pa drop me at the end of the CCRB PT as I wanted to walk it and he had other obligations to attend to.
It was a fabulous walk, meandering through the bush on a warm but not hot day, a slight breeze helping to keep the temperature down and the mossies at bay unless I stopped too long at any GZ. The bird life was great and many was the time I wished that I had carried my binoculars, though I hate to think how long it would have taken me to complete the trail if I had. Loved the finches, honeyeaters, black cockatoos and doves. A magical place.
The search for each cache was varied - some very quick, others far too long, some really frustrating while others were absolutely delightful.
To all COs involved in my adventure today, a big shout out for placing the caches. I enjoyed the variety and the effort that went into them. A couple in particular are memorable and I will award them FPs.
All the caches were found and my name added to each log either as SG, stamped or signed as usual.

Taking advantage of the cooler morning temperature we set out today to finish off this trail.
This cache was found after a couple of minutes on a lovely Darwin morning.
Thank you for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.

Now visiting Darwin after the Red Centre Experience.
The plan today was to head out for a full day of caching by Mr Felix on his Geo Bike.
Was a tough day with humidiity, heat and green ants, but he managed to find your cache today.
Thoroughly enjoyed this series, the hints being available certainly increased my enjoyment when I struggled.

I had gone off path to go for the nearby earthcache and then had to work my way back down to this trail. The lantana is pretty savage and lots of creeks and water pools. Lovely spot though and I am really enjoying the walk. Love the references to Tolkien. TFTC
25/02/2017 10:52:00 AM - Today my caching mission is a visit to Darwin and this trail was my main target for today. I wasn't prepared for the humidity which made it a challenge but I enjoyed it all as I explored and managed to find this cache. I like the cache title.
Thanks Croker Crew Cache is good condition and has spot on co-ordinates.

I set out early this morning and caught the buses to the Hospital thinking I would get a couple of the caches at the beginning of this trail but as I went along I got more and more involved and was enjoying myself so much I went all the way to the end grabbing as many caches as I could along the way The path was quite walkable with only a few places where I had to gingerly use stepping stones to get across the little fords I enjoyed all the caches on the trail and can tell the CO's that I found them all to be in good condition Please keep up the good work, you guy's are what caching is all about Thanks for all the caches Chingola from Guernsey
Short search after found Mr. Right. Thanks for the cache. Greetings from Kununurra W.A.
Another quick and easy find while enjoying a morning walk along this trail. A great way to start the last day of my work visit to Darwin from Canberra. I really enjoyed this series and while I ran out of time to finish it all (I got to CCR011), I will definitely grab the last ones on my next visit. TFTC and the series
Today we got up early to tackle this series before it got toooooo hot for us Tasmanian's. We arrived after solving the Mugglrland series and Mr "T" headed off while Mrs "T" completed a few caches on the way to the pick up point. I enjoyed this series and the variety of hides that I found along the way, all caches were in good condition making it a nice morning walk.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Found it!! Out and about with the GF "Kym's Adventure" on a Sunday cache run to see how many caches we could fit in one day. This was number 15 of 23. Almost finished our run here on the power trail quick find TFTC:)
This cache was found on a bike ride starting and ending at the hospital this afternoon
It was a very warm day indeed, so the shade from the trees was very much appreciated. I did enjoy this little trail a lot. Apart from chicken no other animals where spotted.
The caches were all found and not that difficult to spot - lovely [^].

Enjoyed the walk to find all of the caches along this track. Thanks for showing us.
Found it! Fortunately it was a quick find. I stood and look for a likely spot before heading off the track. Found it straight away. I like to different themes for each cache. I also really like the walk through the Coastal Reserve. TFTC SL.
Lol this one took me ages to find. Yes the description is accurate. Was difficult getting a gps lock so had to roam a bit. Hint for others - search a few meters out in a wide arc from Gz
Arriving at this one I didn't expect it to be difficult with the clue. But as I searched where I thought was the right spot I soon found myself moving out wider. I returned to my GZ and then like others before me had a good think. Thankfully the thinking made my eyes work a bit better and the cache was soon in hand.
Log signed and all returned as found.
