Fryers #15 Drummond North, Victoria, Australia

I decided to give this series a go today. My car got dusty then it rained a little bit and the dust turned to mud, so now I need to wash my car but that's all part of the fun in finding caches. I replaced the log, because it was just a small bit of scrunched up paper. Now it has a nice big log book to continue. Thanks juanmatt for bringing me to this lovely area.

Naturally, I commence this series backwards.

Easy one. Needs a magnet. Tftc

Final cache along this brilliant track, container a little broken so I re-bagged the whole thing. Tftc

Nice acronym TFTC

Found with my favs Bogonghazy and Geo dog. Crossing off a few of my blank dates. Thanks juanmatt for placing the geocache

Cache lid is missing but log is dry if a bit screwed up. TNLN, TFTC

We found it who found it was rose and Holly baba and mum and dad and nanny and Poppy

Nice trip through the park, though it's a shame some of these are for paid users only. Tftc

Idiotlairds found it!

It’s a nice sunny day today, but it’s freezing here! Hint was good. The log was damp but I could still write on it. It looked like other people’s details had washed off. Thanks for the geocache.

Found with McAdies and Geo_Eddie.
I really liked finding this geocache.
Thanks for the hide.

Found with McAdies and Jelly_bean14.
I had a great day out in the area.
Thanks for placing the cache for us to find.

We enjoyed this spot on our day out around the area.
The bush is looking great right now and it was not too hot.
Thanks for placing the cache for us to find.

Thank you for this & the entire series. We've really enjoyed it. Just need to return to #2 @ Tunnel Hill. Pretty sure it was melted in the controlled burn.

Tftc, heaps of space left to sign

Found by the Drummond Scott boys

Found it. Quick and easy

Reminds me of that song from Ace of Base, how does it go again? Easy find

Thanks so much to Juanmatt for a thoroughly enjoyable series. I had worried about the drive in my 2 wheel drive car and my phone reception but both were no problems at all. All the caches are located near to safe places to pull off the road and all are in areas where to can see the ground so can check for snakes. I wore gum boots for this reason but didn't l really need to. What a great way to enjoy a quiet piece of bush for a couple of hours. I particularly liked the ones with a little walk from the car to take in the sounds and beautiful smells.

Hi there juanmatt, we found your cache Fryers #15 today.

Look! A sign of the times

Coordinate Accuracy: We found this cache near where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: The container and log are in good shape.

Regards

Cache is damp and mushy. TFTC

Reasonably quick one, the log was damp but signable, tftc

Nice easy find to finish off the road

Found. TFTC

Easy find, good hidy tidy spot. Thanks for a grouse day out. TFTC.

Easy find

Found 9.00am

A rare morning of caching where we found a few, missed out on a few and just drove past a few. This one was first and was an easy find. Later in the morning we discovered that doing this series the other way round would have been better.

Thanks for the cache.

TFTC nice and easy. Plenty of space still in log

Hubby decided to come out here for some prospecting. So far I've had more luck with my caching than he has with his gold finding.

This was my first Micro, so was a little nervous I wouldn't find it. Thanks for making my first time painless and fun! Nice quick little grab and go

TFTC

Found it

Back logging, I am a shocker for it
Back when the 1st Iso restrictions were being eased, we needed to get out of the house, what better way then to do some caching. We didn't know where we were headed just followed some caches. Having been here numerous times before it was nice to dedicate some time to actually find our unfound caches. We ran out of time and had to make our way home unfortunately. The rest of the trail is on our to do list!

TFTC. A lovely day to go and enjoy some sunshine and caching along Fryers Ridge Road. We had earmarked this trail a few days ago as it would give us the last Modern Wonder and open up, the next set of Wonders of the World. All caches were in good order and for the most part good co-ordinates.

Working our way backwards through this series. Very difficult to get the logbook out of the cache. A lovely area that you’ve brought us to, thank you.

We're up from the Surfcoast, staying in Kyneton and enjoying a break away in the regions we are still able to get to. Today we packed our hand sanitiser and headed out to tackle the Fryers and Ridge Rd series. We really enjoy cruising along the winding country roads. If they're dirt, even better !

Series complete ! Much thanks jaunmatt, we really enjoyed our day out. Apoligies for the generic stuff

Found it. Thanks for the series. We enjoyed the drive.

Aha! We loved adventuring down the track, wildflowers and all. TFTC! Cheers from the Awesome Foursome

First in this series for us as we are working backwards. TFTC

Good hiding spot

Found it

Tftc nice drive from dunolly out with 2beez and toncin

TFTC out with TonCin & PeteBev exploring the area - thanks for the series, we enjoyed it!

Great spot, so different to the others

Got it

Today with the dog loaded and the stresses of xmas packed away at home, the caching run from Glenlyon to Castlemaine was the goal. And on a lovely day it was a very enjoyable run. The GPS had me on the wrong side of the road for a while, the hint put me back on course.Many many thanks for placing these caches to make so !!!

Found

And the end... so much fun. Thanks for the series.

Easy little find. All looks to be in good order.

Staying in the area and out grabbing just a few finds, while exploring the area.Today I was just poking around some of the back roads in the area.

The last in the series, which I have really enjoyed.

Thanks juanmatt for all the effort of placing the cache for us to find and doing the maintenance to keep it in play

On our way to Bendigo today and grabbing a few caches for the new Mystery at the Museum souvenirs. This was our first time through this beautiful bush area. A great series. A quick find.

Thanks **juanmatt**

First for the day with the geokids. Looking forward to an enjoyable day in the bush. Thanks.

So after completing a row of caches nearby, I thought, why not continue? This track was even quieter than the first, and luckily this find was quick and painless! Looking forward to the rest! TFTC

Finally a find by the inspector and a super quick one at that. Log signed and series finished apart from the missing or inactive caches in the series. TFTC and series inspectorrex and team

Yay!!! Final find on a 20 cache day working our way home from Bendigo. Nice easy find, thanks for the cache.

On a well earned break in Castlemaine and I’m spending the time just touring the whole area, enjoying the sites and picking up caches as I go.
Decided to tackle Fryers Ridge track series of caches.
This was my first one I found as I did the series in reverse but the last in the series.
Drove the Geocruiser around the tracks and added some bush pinstriping after going where maybe I shouldn’t have taken it a couple of times.
Enjoyed the tracks, scenery, views and of course the caches so a favourite from me.
Thanks juanmatt TFTC TFTS.

Having a rest day and enjoying some drivebys in the bush before the big day. Merry Christmas and thanks for the series.

found pretty quick we chose to do this series backwards from this cache and the tracks were all pretty good the only rough bit was the bottom end of Tower hill track at the Elphinstone end.

thanks for a good afternoon Juanmatt

Quick find thanks

A challenge to get the log book out!

While this was an easy find, it was difficult to extract however. It was sad to see the bullet holes in the sign. Haven’t these hoons got something better to do with their time? Shortly before doing this cache we stopped to take a photo or two of a Tiger? Snake sun baking on the road. This was the first I’d seen this season, although I’m sure they’ve been out and about for weeks!

Beautiful drive to get there!

Easy find, bit of a struggle to get paper out though, need own pen

Log book has been damp. Dried and useable but very difficult to get out of container. Interesting drive today and will be back to get the rest.

This one brings us to 100 finds for the hidden creatures souvenirs but we didn’t spot any turtles out here today. Not even a kangaroo, just 4 big goats. TNLNSL TFTS

Nice cache. We're doing them backwards but never mind.

Found on the way home from our weekly visit to Bendigo.
This week we decided to deviate down the Fryers Ridge Road and do the series of caches along it.
Last one. We've enjoyed our drive down the Fryers Ridge Road, thanks for this series.
**Thanks for placing this cache juanmatt**

Out North today with Pacman and Bentley exploring the Glenlyon area.

This was a great series to smash out! Some short walks, longer walks, some easy, some harder, with zero traffic! Bentley the cavoodle loved the longer walks and sooked when he had to stay in for the drive bys. A great afternoon was had, thanks for placing this series to make our day.

Today I headed out for a daytrip to the Castlemaine area with Jacko, making the most of the cooler weather to enjoy some bushy terrain. One of the day's main missions was a visit to the little-documented Dyers Falls which were an amazing geological feature.

After lunch we made our way to Fryers Ridge.
This lucky last #15 was the lucky first of the series for us today.
Thanks juanmatt.

Tftc we had a great time enjoyed being bush thanks to all for the trail

Doing from the trail in reverse, thanks for the series.

Perfect little spot!! Very clever. Thanks

Worth a shot!
Thanks for the cache.

After being stuck close to home the last few days due to family commitments and the heat we decided today's Labour Day holiday would be a good day to get out in the bush caching.

So the car was packed and we headed out from Thornbury towards the Northcote of the North aka Castlemaine area for some caching.

When scoping out the area last night this series was spotted and looked interesting. We started out the south end and worked our way backwards to the start in the north. It was a great series juanmatt and we really enjoyed it - thanks for the caches.

This was our fourth find for the day - we managed to find 24 in the end.

Winding me wending way from Glenlyon to Castlemaine today,
I found another back road,
with a trail of geocaches along it,
to follow

So starting at #15,
I soon had this little tin in paw
I doubt they will all be this easy to find

TFTC.

Thanks for the series, we managed to find nearly all of them!

On our way to Malmsbury for lunch at the MotoBean a great place we just had to do some caching on the way and on the way home a great drive though the bush a good day had by all

TFTC. Signed and returned.

Suscoe decided to head north today in search of green and yellow boxes and smiling faces. We headed off early and dropped by Legends - Bunjil to do a health check on them.
Then it was further up the road to the north of Daylesford and beyond.
It was a beaut day, mild Spring weather, a bit of sunshine and a few clouds with a little bit of showers at times too. The countryside is looking beaut at the moment, green pastures, the occasional yellow of the canola fields and the bushland was full of colour too with reds, yellows, purples and creams of grevillias, orchids and a variety of other flowers showing their best today.
All in all it was just one of those splendid Spring days so good to be out enjoying life.
Thanks to juanmatt for this cache and this series.
This was the reason for this trip today and we were pleased to be able to complete the currently available caches.
Dry road, lovely bushland, only one car seen along the road while we drove the 15 kms and 13 caches to find which we did.
All good here, apart from some damp logs in a couple of caches.

A favourite for your efforts with this trail.

The next of the series a quick drive by . Tftv.. super quick find. Thanks for the series

Even Cookie Monsta enjoyed the challenge today.
Some easy finds, some we had to work for.
Another mushy log here.
Thank you for placing these caches for a very fun series.

Yay! We finished them all! What a great day!
Our family had a blast doing this series! Thanks so much for all the effort in creating this. Great finish to our weekend.

Here today for the Fryers series back to base. Start late via Taradale and Chewton before Fryers Ridge Track. Last one for the day (read night now) and relatively easy compared most others. Good hint made up for wonky GPS read. FP for series. CIGC TNLN TFTC juanmatt

Last one in the series

Found quickly with Tassydevil. We enjoyed this series that we had planned for a couple of weeks. The day was a bit hot for this outdoor activity. Thanks for the series juanmatt.

While enjoying the fine weather caching with McLookers we headed north east from Ballarat to wipe a few unfounds from our map. The tracks being well dry , the SUV had no problems as we headed from cache to cache along the Fryers Ridge, working back to front 15 to 1.
Thanks juanmatt for the placement.

Easy find! Thankyou very much for this series Juan, only missed 4 and 5. Will be coming back shortly for them!

Find #2523

Had a trip out this way to look at a couple of blocks of land that were for sale . Not sure if I have found the ideal spot yet but it was certainly very pleasant up here on a warm sunny day. This was the only cache that I had time to divert to so clearly starting this series from the wrong end! It wasn't too far off the paved road and good terrain for my low clearance car. The road was deserted so it turned out to be a quick park and grab with the cache in a likely location. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache juanmatt. I hope I can get back one day to complete the rest of this series.

Another good find while driving around the area.
*Thanks for showing me some interesting locations.*

Found @ 1320 on a quick caching run before heading home - I called the likely position as we approached and was rewarded with a quick find. Thanks juanmatt.

Ist of this series. Hope to get them all this morning. Might spend more time taking photos of the wild flowers though. Great placement!

Find #1129 for me. This was my first find for today in an attempt to complete the Fryers series before attending a nearby Indonesian club event, after completing the northern half of the series this time last year (while attending the same event). My GPS was leading me in circles so I read the hint and found it straight away. Thanks for the cache and the series juanmatt!

A quick and easy find as we cache our way to St Arnaud for the weekend. Last in the series perhaps, but as we never like to do things the simple way it is our first as we head north. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
