By magpiecottage on 24-Mar-15. Waypoint GC5Q0WY

This geocache is being archived to make way for two multicache FINALS to the East and West of this location. This location is going to be used as one of the virtual stages on one of the multicaches.

Quick find after coffee at the Uni Cafe

Staying on campus overnight, at the end of a deployment to the fires.
Another nano, another quick find...

Thanks

Here on deployment for the NSW fires. An afternoon off before heading out fire fighting tomorrow. Spent some time wandering around campus grabbing some caches. TFTC

*Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*

Quick find when resting, but challenge to get log out. Tftc

Checked on this today. Worksite fences still up but cache is still in place and accessible. Tweezers will be useful unless you have little fingers. Happy hunting.

The sundial is currently behind construction fence, and it might be under maintenance. Difficult to know if the geocache will still be there when the fence is removed.

Just until current maintenance is done then I'll check on the cache.

Found while caching around Armidale. Thanks

Found while on a geocaching holiday with tmann421.
Enjoyed the trip around and all the great hides.
Stamped TM/WW NZ, or if in pen our full names

Another day of fun driving / walking around the area with woolwood9.
*More good caches found along the way* **TFTC**
Stamped logs as TM/WW NZ or our full user names or tm421/ww9 in pen.

Good tour around - thanks magpiecottage.

The cache was still accessible even though surrounded by barriers. TFTC.

I found this one before my dad. TFTC.

There was a really cool playground here that I wanted to play on, but it was behind a fence. TFTC.

I was a bit worried about the storm fencing in the vicinity of GZ, but the cache was still accessible. Quick find by bushwalkinggirl. TFTC

TFTC! Quick find for us today! Glorious day!

All good here

A day of Geocaching, TFTC

Easy to find hard with muggles. TFTC

Last of the series. TFTC Magpiecottage.
A nice day for a ride out to UNE for a nostalgia trip on my ebike. I used to do it on my ordinary bike years ago but the hills encouraged a change of steed!

TFTC! Second attempt at this one. When I arrived to the campus this was my first one to look for. It was hot after a long 3.5 hour drive and I could not think where it would be. After a bit of a walk around the grounds to find a few other caches, I had a fair idea where to re-look for this one. Seems I was right on!

Finally found it, it's not a nano!

Right now the flowers around here were beautiful and the smell fantastic,really enjoying this walk around.TFTC.

Perfect day for exploring the Uni. All the students have finished for the year and we seemed to have the place to ourselves. This is a great series of caches, all were quick to find due to accurate coordinates and helpful hints.
Thanks for placing these caches here.

Hi there magpiecottage.

Travelled from Stanthorpe to Armidale today, actually the wind blew us most of the way. We lost an hour due to daylight saving, but that's a good thing because we can now get up with the sun at a reasonable hour.

All up we found 8 caches & DNF'd 0 in this cache run. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places while we meander around Australia.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache about 5m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Just here for exams. Once in the right place it was a quick find TFTC

Visiting FootyFanatics for a few days and slowly ticking off the caches in the area. This seemed like a great place to visit and do the series. Quick little find. Being a Sunday nobody was around today so didn’t have to worry about muggles. TFTC.

Spending a couple of days caching in Armidale, cold and wet but still having fun ..

All Good .. TFTC ..

Tftc staying in Armidale for a few days catching up with friends

TFTC

This one appeared to be missing when I was here last year. Found it easily this time.

Found it thanks.

ANZAC services over, re-enabling

Disabling until after ANZAC day services on 25 April.

I did find the cache missing, and replaced it with a more common type micro container.

Today I wasn't having any luck with this one, still enjoyed the visit.

thanks

DNF

TFTC cool little spot

Gotcha !!! TFTC

Cute hide
We really enjoyed this micro tour
FP from us for the whole tour

TFTC. Only a few muggles today.

Tftc, very sneaky!

Attempted during lunch break of the nsw weeds conference but was muggled out. Came back during arvo tea break and made the quick find with a familiar hide. SL and replaced as found. Tftc

I wandered into GZ,
and a muggle wandered in from the opposite direction [:o]
I guess he didn't want me to hear his phone conversation,
in a foreign language,
and he wandered off,
leaving me to find the cache quick smart

TFTC

Euwwww. Glad it wasnt a super hot day! Nicely placed to be out of view of most students and staff. TFTC : )

TFTC smile 3173 # what a great morning in Armadale and this was a quick find and signed and replaced out and about with my sister Flim & Flick and Miss Millie geo dog

TFTC found withGrannysmith1947

Found it on a chilly Friday while staying in Armidale and travelling around the area. This was the busiest area of the University but the cache was away from the diners. I've seen this type of camo before. TFTC

Easy enough, I knew of these caches but have never found one. Fingers struggled on a frosty morning but managed to sign log; did not have my caching kit. TFTC:-)

An easy one

A nice easy find, my first one of these disguises. Thanks

Replaced cache. Ready to go again. Happy hunting, at your stealthy best please

The cache appears to have been muggled so disabling until I can source a new one.

DNF with Ozglory on our weekend away caching with the plan to do the loop from Kempsey to Uralla to Armidale and back to Kempsey.. The weather was not our friend on this trip which meant some slight change in plans, but was still a great weekend away.

Reading a few of the logs we knew what we were looking for but had no luck today. Such a shame to leave one sad blue face in the UNE trail but it couldn't be helped.

Thank you for creating such a trail - two of the geokids are now saying they want to go to uni in Armidale lol (they are 6!)

We have wanted to do this group of caches for a long time. Although we thought we knew what we were looking for we still came up empty. with staybe and co whilst on our wet and wild caching weekend. many thanks for the hide. tnln sl

Searched for nearly half an hour

Lots and lots of hunting and we finally found it.

Nice quick find while visiting the Uni for intensive school. Tftf

This one eluded me last time because it was too muggly. This time I'm here for my honours intensives a week before regular classes meaning the area was free to search. I'd seen this delicious hide before so easily found. TFTC!

My wife is an avid park runner so despite being away for the weekend we found a run and the rest of the family came along to grab a few caches. It seems there are some national mountain bike championships here today too. Very busy.

Looked in the wrong place to start with but got there in the end. TNLN TFTC

Continueing our walk, geohubby spotted something but was not keen to touch it. Luckily i had seen this type before. Haha SL TFTC magpiecottage

So, must have seen this last try but overlooked it. Great hide. Never seen this before in over 500 caches. TFTC

Today we came to the uni to try and collect all the caches that are here. We missed on two, sad. Negotiating our way around was our biggest problem, it would be ideal if you could walk or ride your way around. A lovely area at this one and nice and quite, it is Saturday and the holidays have started. A few people around but no one was interested in us. SL TFTC

New log. Please report when you find the log is full.

TFTC
heaps of pretty butterflies

On a caching adventure to Uralla/Armidale/Hillgrove with pprass we set out to see some country side and some interesting caches.

We had to act like we were interested in the lovely flower plants as there were a couple of muggles hanging around, but thankfully the cache was in a spot where we were hidden out of sight

Thanks for the cache magpiecottage

Found at 11:33 AM GAFF5 in the company of NurseHayley on a 3 day weekend touring Uralla/Armidale/Hillgrove.
Second full day of our weekend after a fantastic evening and meal at Geono HQ.
This was the only one of the series where someone was looking over their shoulders to see what we were doing. Luckily there was a bush and a hedge that we could hide behind to do our business.
Thanks magpiecottage.

Not gross at all really.

Don't mind these nano caches when the camo is interesting.

Thanks for the cache, magpiecottage, didn't take or leave anything (obviously) but did sign the log.

Since we're local, will come back on a weekend and look for the rest when it's a little quieter.

Gross!

TFTC

Got it!

Sneaky.

Good cache for a Sunday once I navigated parking. TFTC

Should have been called Wrigleys. I wasn't aware of this Memorial. Tftc

Parking was more difficult than the cache. Enjoyed the hunt. TFTC!!!

Tftc

I had the chance to do some geocaching on my roadtrip to Armidale. We went North via Thunderbolts Way and South via New England Highway. Narrowed my choices down to roadside caches with Favourite Points to get some unique hides and/or interesting locations.

Found about 20 without inconveniencing the trip (too much). Thanks for showing me around some parts of New South Wales that I wouldn't otherwise visit.

UNE was the reason we visited Armidale, looking for Postgraduate courses for next year. While my travelling amigo was getting enrollment details, I popped out to grab the campus caches!

A previous one-word log gave it up. Seen this kind around before. Always a good laugh. Cheers

**# 14021** Found on our 2016 winter escape trek.
Another fine sunny day for a drive around in Armidale and UNE.
Another good find and not many muggles around today.
Thanks for the cache magpiecottage,

Yuck

Gross

Found this after a quick search and a nice sit down having a look at the anzac reefs from the other day

very clever camo, not what i expected.

Another find by geokid aged 5. He loved this one the best !!! Thanks !!

No luck with this one. Not in any obvious places.

Tftc, very nice

Our last nights at Urallla, today we headed to Armidale for the day.
We enjoyed out tour of the UNI, glad it was a Sunday & no students in attendance.

Thanks for placing this cache magpiecottage

Haha seen these before, so cool! Tftc.

This was our first one this morning. As cache container was lying on the ground we replaced it where we thought it should belong. TFTC parneq & dule.

Nice quiet Sunday morning to go caching at the UNE. TFTC.

For us this brings to a close our tour of the campus with caching as our tour guide, thank you for the trail and I can only imagine how busy it must be during the week and my hat goes off to any cacher who completes the cache trail during the week. TFTC

TFTC

Thanks for the cache . We had assistance from havachat who directed us around town which worked out faster than the gpsr. Almost a sticky situation .
