The whole family came out caching this afternoon, despite threatening rain - ended up a great afternoon, with the weather just keeping the muggles away....

No luck on this one, our only DNF for the day....
There are bees swarming in a tree directly opposite GZ where you would park - take care....

9872 + 1121 = 10993. Found during a short visit to Newcastle.

Today I wanted to do the loop around the Stockton area grabbing as many caches as I could before time ran out. After fionding the Final of this series I continued along to complete the Traditionals. Quick find at GZ. Signed, returned, and I was off to the next one.

Thanks again Yella Belly ! Sorry for the late log but I've been O/S for a while.

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Found on a geocaching morning with my son and Orrsome86. First we parked near Stockton Bike Track #12 and walked past it to number thirteen. Seeing as we were so close to the bridge steps we went the little bit further to Top View, which was scary with the cars so close, it would also have been a much shorter walk if we had come in from the other side. Then we got to walk all the way back again and find number twelve. Then a quick find at number eleven before driving and parking between number nine and ten. Again we could not find number nine, but we got all the numbers we needed in number ten. After another short drive we arrived, enjoyed the walk, though Orrsome took the hard way. The final cache was all but buried and will get a favorite representing the great series.
Thanks for the great walk, cache and series!
 
01-Aug-15
My GPS kept jumping around and then so did I when I actually found the cache! Geo kid was not so keen on this one lol. Fantastic cache!!
 
01-Aug-15
TOMBI his little one and i headed out to finish the STOCKTON BIKE / WALK TRACK series. We parked between number 11 and 12. We walked north all the way to 13 and then decided to tackle the one on top of Stockton Bridge. Then back south collecting the required information for the final. managed to find all except one that we set out to find. Found this one after a few minutes of searching. TFTC

Yup another one of those caches that makes you gasp. very clever. this was our first cache along this trail in our little day of caching and lunch with djant. we had just come from a D5 so where looking forward to something a little simpler and quick before lunch and before djant had to go and collect the geo kids from school. a great series along a great part of stockton. TFTC

This was our last cache in Stockton for today. After reading the hint & finding the correct log quickly Mr Senz said to me, be careful nothing comes out from underneath there. Grabbing the log & lifting it up i jumped a little and stepped back making sure our friend was fake before grabbing him. A nice quick find and a little laugh. We signed the log & replaced. TFTC

We came here to do a day of caching and were very pleasantly surprised by the activities here in Stockton, we set off on our bikes and rode around and found as many caches along the way. We found variety of types , crafty once and little more challenging once. thanks to all the CO for there efforts. well done. TFTC

Although I expected something from the description, the unexpected got me, as it was too real! TNLNSL TFTC
 
12-Nov-14
This one caused me to step back and check the situation. It doesn't matter how many I see of these, they always make me pause since we once poked a real one on a very cold day. Thanks for another great hide.

Another part of the series. Muggles were around a lot which made it more difficult.
 
03-Oct-14
Thought it was about time we came and did this series, starting at #1. Almost the end of school hols so there's a few muggles about.
Another one we missed on our way to the final. Picked it up on the way back. Checked the hide and didn't see it. Did a circle round GZ and thought this must be it so had a second look and it was there. Mutant relative of the CO perhaps? Thanks Yella Belly

What I meant to say was that this was my first ever first to find! So lucky to beat MV to this one, and managed to sneak this in before Chippy arrived and we teamed up to finish the entire series together.
 
24-Sep-14
Reperio at 1445.

I was out shopping for a life jacket in Warner's Bay when this series came online...so decided the life jacket could wait...and I headed over to Stockton. With two more trads to go before working on the final coords...I parked roadside and almost wondered where to start searching. Fortunately I picked the right spot first up.

Gratias Yella Belly.
