An entertaining hide.A day out in the suburbs and surrounds of Armidale as we searched for caches, and completed the two Ad Labs. Met a few lovely people on the way on a cool day but with only light winds.The caching was at times time consuming but we enjoyed the variety of walking we did in between sections in the car.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache geono..**SKI Pair****
Day 2 of caching in Armidale, we were going to go on our bikes, but decided to take the car. Should have stuck with the bikes around UNE. Drove down to this one and located the container, managed to get a grip to open and sign the log.Fav pointTotal Caches Found 16013TFTC geono.
Staying around the Armidale area to cache for a few days.
A short walk to this one and managed to make a quick find, it was only once we found it that the hint made sense
Thanks for the cache

Found! We went through a gate and then realised we didn’t have to when we found the cache. Clever, TFTC

On approach Mrs Smurf saw this one immediately. Very clever & loved the camo.
Found just after lunch. We took the kids for a bike ride to get out and about while isolated, and while we were in the area thought we would find a couple of caches.

As we were not originally planning to do any geocaching when we left home we didn’t have a pen with us so will message through a pic to claim our find

We had a great day caching along the bike track. GeoPa (jasmr) with the geograndkids DandCEWR and DandCTPR rode our bikes with FurstyFerret. Geono did a great job setting up all these caches - thanks!

Thanks for another cool cache to add to the list. Saw it from a distance and thought yup that’s it. But what do ya know? It doesn’t open, dad always said don’t force things so left it alone. Came back with a big yank and out came the cache! Thanks again!

Checked this morning and due to the new fence the cache was missing. Left a temporary replacement (log and snap lock bag only) till we can replace it in a couple of weeks. Please cover it well.
Found OK this is the first of this type I have found in the field. I have seen them before but not hidden. TFTC.

Checked on the cache and found not only the container missing but the structure it was in. Looks like there's been some action here since our last visit! Disabling till we replace the cache. Apologies to the cachers who looked while it was missing.
This was our last cache of the bike trail series. We had a good look around and could not find anything.
Maybe next time when we are here in Armidale we will have another go at this one.
There has been some weed spraying done around here.

Geogranddaughter 4 found it! TFTC. Another lovely day out geocaching with geograndkids - Ollymoo and Weebindi.
TFTC Logged with Weebindi (geobumpa) but had found before with geomimmi (Weebindi2)
Found during an early morning solo bike ride from the Showground to UNE. Had to pretend to talk on the phone before I could put the cache back as I was sprung simultaneously by a walker and bike rider. Many thanks geono

Travelling around Australia in our Caravan with our cat.
Camped at Armidale showground this morning we headed out on our GeoBikes. After the morning chasing down tricky and evil micro's after lunch we decided to head out doing touristy things.
Mr Felix spotted this cache quickly enough. Love these cache types have seen a few in different forms.

On the way home from the QLD Mega Event and staying at Armidale. Got the bike out this morning to ride the trail in spite of the very strong NW wind. Visited some trackables. Another very clever hide/construction by geono. TFTC.
The first find made by my mate whos first time it was geocaching. Had a great time.

Parked nearby and were initially wondering what the accommodation was for (hostel?). Didn't realise how close we were to the Uni (shows how much attention we took of the name of the cache). Luckily we paid more attention to the surroundings and found the cache pretty quickly.

QLD Mega trip 2015 with Sol de Lune. On this almost 400km road trip we drove from Canberra to Stanthorpe caching in all the towns along the way with mostly great success. Around the Mega there were heaps of caches to be done including a few power trails. Despite the weather we got all of the planned caches done.
Day five started with the remaining caches around Armidale and then the drive to Tenterfield via Glenn Innes. The creek areas in these Highland towns seem to be very well developed and the caches have taken full advantage. Plenty of variety. Thanks.

Found with Albida33 on the way to the Stanthorpe Mega......so please excuse the generic log.
Took a few minutes to nab this one but once again Albida came up trumps and all was good.
Thanks for the cache and adding to the fun of our Mega trip.....

I used the car as I didn't bring my own bicycle so use car/walk... Enjoyed myself - the path is very excellent for people etc... another admired your hide spot. Thanks geono.

The clue had us scratching our heads until we found the cache. Ian hadn't taken his GPS off of his bike and we was still a few metres from GZ when we first started our search. A second check on the GPS and the cache was quickly found.
Tftc. Spotted a likely hiding spot as I was walking right and my instincts were correct. Nice quick find in a pretty area
Geono, the o ring has broken, fell into the grass as I opened the lid and couldn't get it to hold back into place. It looks perished, so will need replacing.
Quick find, looks like the seal may be perishing on the cap which may be he cause of the leaks?, T4TC geono. !
Checked on the cache, can't see why it's suddenly letting moisture in. Replaced the log and will see how it goes.
