Logs
Staying in Dorrigo for a couple of nights and today we cached around town and to the east. Lovely weather, some tricky hides and great spots visited - thanks to the local COs - you certainly have a range of hides!
A very clever hide - a FP given.

Out and about, caching around Dorrigo today. Thoroughly enjoyed the various caches and locations, especially along the Biessdown River. A credit to all the CO's. Found cache and signed log. TFTC groovydoo. Giving a FP for the cache itself
Had a quick look wiyh no luck. We did find the lid of a geen bison tube lying on the ground but nothing it could screw onto (we placed the lid at the base of the tree on the bridge side)
I was having GPS bounce for the first time in town but it's was deffinatly worthy of the difficult rating. Alas next time It will have to be
This one had some interesting insects that popped out when I bashed it on the table to try and get the log book out. this wasn't hugely successful but the co was again handy with some tott to help. Cheers!
Was wondering how I would award a favourite for this tour around dorrigo. Then comes along a good cache. It does need some love though. Tftc
This was the second spot visited on a quick little stroll along the river. I'm not usually one for wandering about town searching for micros but we had time to kill before dark. when I got to ground zero I pretty much decided to give up as there was a lot of places a micro could be so instead we sat at the nearby picnic table and began a cryptic crossword from the paper. It soon became apparent that a storm would be arriving imminently so we decided to head on, but I was struck with the urge to at least take a quick look for the cache before moving on. about 30 seconds later I had my hand on the cache thankfully, though it took a little longer to extract the log however. all in all that was a pretty cunning hide, I could imagine if I were unlucky I could easily have walked away with a DNF here. Good to find this one after it's been unfound for over six months.
My thanks go to groovydoo, this was a fun little walk and I think this was favourite of those we did.

Not having a good caching day, at least I had a good walk in the forest and now along the creek
Found where the cache should be, but no cache alas. Scruff really enjoyed his walk along the walking path, though, and it's beautiful through there.
Have had Dorrigo on my "must do" list for quite some time and finally the planets and stars have aligned and we set off on a glorious winter's day. Nice hide, blends in well.
Went and replaced today when leaving found the log container a few meters away from GZ. Put original cache back with log.
Staying in Moonpar hideaway near Bostobrick for a few days whilst on a road trip from Sydney to Brisbane. Well disguised, however there was no cache inside!!

Came back today for another attempt and this time spotted something different. A creative hide here, thanks

I'm sorry, but your recent move has brought your cache too close to the Traditional Cache of[GC3N63R: Over the Bielsdown River](http://coord.info/GC3N63R) and will need to be moved. Please read the following item on [Cache Saturation](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachesaturation)
I've disabled this listing for the time being, could you please move it to a new location that fits within the saturation guidelines. Once that is done you may enable the cache.
Rgds,
Matt - Ministro.

Spent a while looking for this one to no avail, the GPS was pretty bouncy in here too.
sadly not today, spent about 20 minutes giving this a good look but had no luck. thanks anyway
Staying around Dorrigo for a few days, camping and geocaching.
We went straight to the obvious spot but after 5 minutes found nothing, a 2nd check of the GPS showed it was pointing to another place a couple of metres away where we soon located the well camoed cache.
Thanks for the cache

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Her Majesty at 4:40pm. That took quite a fewe to track down. The cache is in good condition. TFTC
We have been staying at the free camp in Thora with our caravan and using it as a base to cache around Bellingen and Dorrigo to as far as Ebor. Fabulous countryside and we have loved the creative hides. Thankyou groovydoo for placement of this cache and sharing this special spot with us.
An interesting little hide, took us a little bit to find it but just as we were about to give up there it was. Made sure it was well covered tftc
TFTC, after seeing that the missing cache was replaced, I returned to not only find the new well camo'd cache but unbelievably also the small uncamo'd container of the old one which must have resurfaced with all the rain, I signed the new log and will drop the other container in another cache owned by the C.O for him to pick up.
Was missing, pretty sure previous cache rotted away. Replaced with a new container and log sheet this afternoon.
Another find in the Dorrigo area, this time after a short walk along the river. Since it was another hot day, we hurried on back to the geo mobile, and its divine air conditioning.
Find No: 5373. Visiting from Newcastle, staying in Woolgoolga, yukky day so thought we'd head for the hills, had a great day, great picnic lunch and 30 caches in total, thanks for the cache groovydoo!!
Wood have been nice to have found a cache in this lovely spot. Not gonna happen today. Sorry.

Another beautiful park with a beautiful home and gardens near by. clever cache groovydoo, well done.
This was a little exposed. Put suitable camouflage after finding is my recommendation.
Checked today after council did a big clean up of the trees, and this needed to be replaced.
Is now sistema container

Dorrigo in autumn is a lovely place for a stroll
Many of the introduced trees are getting ready for winter and the leaves are all sorts of colours and making a mess on the ground too
First stop on me stroll along the creek .... here !!
And an easy cache find !! [:o]
These types of hides can be a real pain to spot sometimes
