Thanks

Found it easily enough but it has no log that I could find. CaptainVimes and I are having a long weekend in Coffs with a bit of caching on the side. Thanks trickytrax and happy caching

TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity.

Found it good little spot

Found it bit sneaky

Tftc very wet log, to much water coming through the hose signed my own log and replaced

Beautiful walk to a sneaky cache TFTC

Easy find - cache paper needs replacing as wet

To wet to log once again, tried to sign it best I can #13

tftc found it but couldnt retrieve the log as it was wet. very unique hiding spot i like the creativity!!

gorgeous walk and very sneaky! got attacked by mosquitos trying to get it though

Harder than expected until I reread the name of the geocache. Needs to be replaced.

A nice spot

A novel cache...all in the name!! T4TC:-)

I can be so inconsistant with logging caches. I will go out and find them, and then never get around to logging them online. So this is me catching up. I need to get out of this bad habit.TFTC!

Nice hide

Found it. Nothing to log. But cool find

Was driving by so stopped off here. Parked, read the hint and saw the cache spot.Needs replacing. Then it was back to the car and on with the trip.Found this a while ago. Logging today for Leap Day.TFTC

Very creative cache. Couldn't sign log tyftf

Found it, but nothing to log

Found. Log needs replacement

Found the cool vine but no log inside!

No log inside

Found it. But could not find log

Found the cache but could not find the log

Tftc

A bit more time today so I thought I would do this little walk today.

Didn't have any luck on this one today. I'll try again another time

FTC, could not sign or retrieve out as log is wet and jammed up. Looks like ants have made a new home of it too.

Hard

Managed to find this cache while using the boardwalk with goingplaces2 and made a successful retrieval. Interesting camo for this one. Log was signed, all was replaced, Job done! TFTC.

We went for a stroll along the walking track here with ilook4geo, but had to wait a couple of minutes here while some muggles passed by before we could retrieve this cache. It was well hidden but it was easy enough to add both names to the log and replace. Thanks go to trickytraxfor placing this cache.

Sneaky

Snakes alive!!!!
TFTC

You picked a fine vine to leave me Lucile

Interesting container- I almost did a CITO

Looked on all the vines went back to the bridge and looked around then I saw a unusual vine tftc

Thanks

Added more paper for the log. GPS was pretty dodgy for tho one.

Found it

️

Another sunny day woo hoo!! Getting in while the weather is good to find some caches along the Coffs Creek trails. Great container, took a little searching before I spotted it. TFTC

In Coffs for work on a very wet day. Quick find though the log has degraded to almost nothing in this unusual container. Thanks.

Found it

Coords couldn't make up their mind on where to settle so had to search a bit of a radius until we spotted the cache, all in good condition.
Thanks for the cache

Found with Mrs BillHill, Staying at Coff's Harbour for the week doing some touristy things and some caches if time allows. The GZ had me looking in the wrong area but quickly found when I increased the search area,
Signed log and Cache replaced as found.
**Thanks For The Cache** trickytrax.

This is the 12th cache of 12 for today making a grand total of 3357 at 4:23PM on this Wednesday the 10th of November in the Year 2021

Found this one this afternoon, cleverly hidden! Forgot to bring a pen so will be back another day to sign the log. TFTC

Was the log replaced? Nice cache.

While we were looking for the cache an elderly couple came along the boardwalk and asked if we needed a hand. After a bit of conversation we realised they weren’t geocachers and they weren’t going to tell us where the cache was.

We still told them what we were doing and they offered some very constructive help like a) it could be under the boardwalk, b) maybe it was a fake leaf, and c) maybe some unicorns stole it to make rainbows. One of their suggestions proved to be the difference. tftc

A short wander along this deserted path led to GZ and a quick find.

The log sheet is soaked and definitely needs replacing.

This cache yielded my last travel wonder, Victoria Falls.

Nice walk before breakfast. Took a moment to spot

Followed the path well trodden and an easy find TFTC

Mushy logs. Needs a water tight container upgrade.

**Total find count: 1008**

After what has felt like an eternity, we are finally taking our first geocaching road trip since Clear Waters with Crzymelly, TeamPQS and HubbyandMrs.

A local day in an around Coffs to avenge a DNF, some beach atime for the kids, and to find cache 1000 for me.

After searching 300m away, found the 'vine' easily

We are caching with AF-BEE, GeoWinch78 and 6ftzpr&1/2zip this trip is to grab as many 'Old Caches' Earth caches and favorites as we can plus any more in-between. AF-BEE is always on the hunt for B-day caches this one is 5 today Thanks trickytrax for the cache and fun we have looking for them.

Found with AF BEE, 6ftzpr&1/2zip, and ondago while on a geocaching vacation. Thanks for placing this cache.

On a trip with ondago, AFBEE and GW78. Nice quick walk and nice quick find. TFTFun trickytrax

OCW GeoWench78, 6ftzpr&1/2zip, and ondago...stopped for this birthday cache, placed 5 years ago today...short walkk and quick find...enjoyed the unique hide...TFTC!

After searching all the vines in the area finally found what I was looking for then I did need a hose down after all the mosquitos had a feed on me. Happy to get a smiley and a souvenir for palindrome day. TFTC

I'm beginning to recognize this COs style! Another triumph! Thanks trickytrax

Found after a bit of a search - GPS had me at the wrong tree but cache was within the 10m radius. Cache was not what I was expecting but very creative. TFTC

Parked the bikes on the southern breakwall and rode back to the start of this track to grab 4 previously unfound caches.
This was the last one tackled and Mr Beetle headed off the track to find it. I spotted it from the boardwalk though and directed him o GZ.
A nice hide and the cache name suddenly made sense.
Quite a busy track too with walking, cycling, jogging and dog walking muggles aplenty.
Thanks and a favourite point from us.

Ha! Very clever

Found the cache
Very creative cache
TFTC

Found 14/7/19 with JessYoung96. Good find and very creative. Enjoyed the hunt. TFTC.

Staying in Coffs Harbour for a few days so thought I should check out a few local caches. Am working on a puzzle challenge so grabbed Coffs Creek 1 to help with the nearby puzzle cache. While on the walk grabbed this one as well.

Baffled the kids for a few minutes until we read the hint......

Thanks for improving a great bike ride.

Off on a short geo-tour to Coffs Harbour for a couple of days. Out on Evie rounding up as many smiles as I can. Another cache that made my "to do" list.

With bouncy GPSr under the tree cover the hint was extremely helpful. Not the first or second spot I looked.

Always nice to find something different, especially after over 9000 finds.

A favourite point to add to the collection

Clever cache tftc a muggle rode past as I was signing it but fortunately didn't ask any questions.

One of those things you cant see for looking then when you do finally spot it, its like 'how did i miss that!!'
Well done, nice cache in a pretty spot. Fav point from me

Haha love it! Something we have not seen before and it does has its resemblances

Love the camo!

Nice easy find TFTC. Log book has started to disintegrate

Found with Tatt2squared and Key_Tat....TFTC

Found with Key_Tat and Viper_101... interesting camo... nice quick find. TFTC.

TFTC - clever

Found with HM6308...loved this, very clever. The log was a bit soggy.

Tricky. Thanks.

Quick easy find
Very clever

Good hide nice walk

Just landed in Coffs Harbour for a couple of days on our training trek. Staying in the caravan park. Well worth going through the shop and miniature village. Needed to get up those steps this morning so of for a walk. Absolutely delighted with the walking path. This one had me really going. Checked out every tree standing and lying close by. Interesting beans growing from the vines. 3/4 hr and gave up. Moved onto another cache further on. On my return nature called and I moved further out and bingo. Very funny. Nothing like what I expected. Thanks for bringing me and the cache

Today we got out on the bikes and rode the Coffs Creek trail from the caravan park down to the beach. The highlight for Mrs SKI was the coffee and cake at Gibbos van just after you cross the road heading down to the surf club. Good coffee and an outstanding vanilla slice combined with chatty good service! A good old fashioned baker!
We both enjoyed the ride along the creek through the bushland. Who would know you are in the middle of a city!
We understood this one better once we had made the find.
TFTC

Log soaked, we had nothing to replace with. Clever camo.

We're on our way home from the Alice Springs Mega event. Cached all through Victoria, S.Aus, Uluru, Barkly Hway, Qld & now back in our home state NSW ... finding some great camps along the way. Log stamped Coongoola, small logs signed CG.

Thanks for placing this cache trickytrax. SL

Well we couldn't resist the challenge of finding a needle in a haystack or vine in a tree, so we made the journey here to try our luck. We searched every tree that we suspected of being in the vicinity of GZ except the one it was in

A sneaky hide well done, Took a bit longer than we thought but in the end we had the cache TFTC SL

A quick stop while jogging around the circuit did not reveal the cache.
Probably too much sweat in my eyes. Didnt spend a lot of time looking - next time...

TFTC, quick find, nice walk and clever camo.

On a road trip fro. Brisbane to Melbourne. Tftc

Another unusual hide, thanks!
