TRLT - McMurrays Lane Windeyer, New South Wales, Australia
By alnic39 on 06-Jul-15. Waypoint GC5YTNR

#13885 Three days on the road from Sydney to Mudgee, with the main objective of finding and logging the TRLT-North. It was an enjoyable drive, across dirt roads and some beautiful scenery. Day 1 we camped overnight at Hill End and day 2 we pitched out tent in Mudgee. The caches were easily found so the focus was fully on the journey through our Mid Western region of NSW.Log sheet was too wet to sign.TFTC to all cache owners for maintaining this great series.

Stayed nearby overnight and grabbing anything along the way.Most hides where found after a short search. Loved the different containers and hides. Some great views to be had along the series.Thanks for placing the cache and doing the maintenance needed, so we can find this cache.

Day 2 of our Mudgee to Orange weekend, we're taking the back roads (those less traveled!) to Bathurst. The car GPS spent all day in vain trying to convince us to turn here and there, but we took the longest way possible I'm sure.... Another day of great conditions, maybe a little too hot, and we made 50 GC finds, with a pair of GA as a bonus.
Another nice quick one, nice container design, we've done some similar.... Thanks!

Found today on our road trip on the section from Mudgee to Bathurst, had an amazing time on this section, caches generally in great condition, hints were also very helpful!

With COVID19 locking everyone down for so long, a MUCH overdue geocaching mission was welcomed. FurfacesLL #1 and myself decided to head towards Bathurst and attack some of the TRLT caches and see how far we can go. Spoke to a few of the CO's prior to heading up to see if we could assist with any maintenance that was required, so we went prepared with some camo containers and some fresh log books. We had a wonderful weekend stretching the legs and enjoying the country side.

Thanks for the hide alnic39 And thanks to the FFLL ladies for another fun weekend out and about the TRLT trails and others

Day 2
With the COVID19 restrictions lifting, we decided to head to the Bathurst area this long weekend on a Geomission with Rapidlywild. Our intention was to attack the TRLT trail and others around the area.
We had a great four days, only a few DNF’s but mostly smiley's, and have left plenty for another adventure. Lovely area to cache in and we look forward to coming back for some more fun and laughs.

Thanks for the hide alnic39 and thanks Rapidlywild for another great weekend away.

Apologies for the generic log, thank you to all the cache owners for their efforts.

Owner maintenance for a log saying the log book was almost full. Sheesh!

Tftc finding more caches then gold now

This was to be the last long geocaching trail for us to undertake during our current travels around Australia, and so mid afternoon yesterday we had started at the top of the trail and kept going until just after sunset. This morning we returned to where we had pulled out of the trail the day before. Yesterday had been cold, windy and wet, but today the sun was out again and it remained dry throughout the day albeit with a very chilly wind. This one was a nice quick find once at Ground Zero. We signed the log book and then replaced as found. Thanks so much for the nicely camouflaged cache and for the interesting information on the cache page. Greetings from Zimbabwe

On a trip West with teamMerlin to pick up some solved puzzles as well as doing a bit more of the Road Less Travelled series McMurrays Lane was another spot we stopped to grab the cache. Used to go fossicking out Oberon way now we fossick for caches have more luck finding caches than gold or gems

With cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache alnic39

TRLT caches: found - 80, DNF - 3.
Other caches found - 35, DNF - 1.
Thanks to alnic for placing this cache here for us to find.

On a big weekend caching with oldmorty and Frazeydaze and logs have signed OMF. 
Would like to thank all cache owners, for making and maintaining the caches.

OCW frazerdaze and marj01. House sitting at White Rock for a week has provided an opportunity to do some geocaching runs around Bathurst - mainly TRLT series indispersed with a number of trads and puzzle caches. During the day we saw lovely scenery, lots of sheep and cattle, a few foxes and one deer in the forestry area. We even encountered fire persons doing a burn off which included two of the caches we were chasing. Please excuse the generic logs and thanks to all the CO's for placing the caches and adding to our enjoyment. For expediency all logs were signed OMF.

A quick stop while the geokid was adjusted in his seat by TeamScozzie. Great hide! Tftc

Last cache for the day, thanks for the series. Calling it a day as the geotoddler is getting over it.

Out on a caching roadtrip for a few day over the holidays I stopped in here to look and find this hide.
It sure has been a really enjoyable scenic country drive.
With so many finds I appoligise for my repeated logs.
Thanks to all the CO for placing their caches along the way
Cheers

Nice quick easy find after ducking out of the way of the ute that obviously expected there to be nobody here. Thanks for the cache.

Nice Variation

Mudgee trip for The Road Less Traveled series. Day 3. Sofala to Mudgee via Hill End and lots more back roads. The main focus of this trip was more of the TRLT series, so it was good to get back to work on the main goal.

Quick find....out doing this series with dave8153 as my goal is to get 5000 for the OZ geomuster. TFTC

We are staying at the Mudgee showgrounds and with this extreme heat we headed out early and got back to the caravan by mid afternoon and the comfort of the aircon. We enjoy these rural locations and this was one of the caches we targetted and found. We appreciated the extra effort put into some of the caches to provide a more creative hide. Thanks to alnic39 for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

On a two day caching trip with GeodudeAU to cover more of TRLT series and others from Carcalgong-Mudgee-Gulgong-Ilford-Capertee-Lithgow. We had 90 finds and only a few DNFs for our efforts. A great couple of days exploring the Central Tablelands seeing some amazing places we wouldn't normally visit. We even survived the mini-hurricane that swept through our campsite along the Cudgegong River at TSR (Cullenbone)! Thanks to all the COs for placing and maintaining these caches. Most were in good order and easily found with the help of handy hints to get CIH.

Another easy one to add to the smiley list. Nice camo. TFTC

Out with Brewmaker for a 2 day trip finding caches along The Road Less Travelled series. On this day 1 we started around Carcalgong and then headed north through Windeyer, Grattai and Erudgere before finally camping overnight at Mudgee.
It was an enjoyable journey through the countryside seeing farm and native animals along the way. There was only a little bit of light rain at times today, which didn't cause a problem.
We found all of the caches very easily (with just one providing a longer search). Most of the caches were in good order, so all in all it was a good day's caching. Thanks to all of the COs for providing this trail

After a pleasant night at the Old Bara camp site, we set out for another day of caching along The Road Less Travelled. This time we headed south, starting from where we had started but headed north the day before.

Quickly found and log signed.

Have finished the family xmas duties and we are now free to cache yipee, so here we come trlt series. These are the sort of caches we love, getti g out and about into the country. Great effort getting this series going and keeping up with maintenance thanks to all the COs. Day 2 of our series heading up toward mudgee. Appreciating the effort on the camo. Tftc

Two very fast spider were with the cache.

1/10/17. 3:06 PM. Cache #5370.
34th of 71 finds today.

Day 2 of the long weekend for which I have come up to plunder caches in the Mid West Regional council. Now on to the main leg of the day, The Road Less Travelled; I followed the trail up though Pyramul, Carcalgong, Windeyer, Grattai, Collingwood, Erudgere and Piambong - 62 caches in 6 hours including a handful of non-TRLT caches. TFTC to all the COs involved.

Sorry it's mostly going to be a copy/paste affair, but there will be the occasional extra commentary where anything of note happened...
} : )

TFTC Thank you for going to the effort of hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity. Gold. So many uses!

Found as part of a weekend away with Hoojar. We headed up towards Gulgong the first night and camped near the start/ end of TRLT (@ -5 degrees ). The next day we made it through some nice historic places and great rolling countryside to finish up at Sunny Corner after a feed in Bathurst. The next day a few more finds before we headed home. Plenty of roadkill spotted, not many cars and not too much trouble at each cache. Thanks to all those cache hiders .

The opportunity finally arose that Steeba and I both had a free weekend to go caching. We quickly settled upon the northern half of The Road Less Traveled series. We drove to Gulgong via Mudgee after work on Friday, camping just before midnight at the suggested TSR nearby.

Saturday we made our way via the caching trail, and the odd additional cache, to Bathurst for dinner, then back onto the trail to Sunny Corner where we again camped for the evening.

Sunday we turned our heads for home, via a few additional cache stops in Portland and Wallerawang.

A fantastic weekend away, with excellent country to be seen and company to be had. We enjoyed the caches that we found.

Thank you to all of the cache owners, and sorry for the boiler-plate logs!

Cheers

this was a very handy and pretty lane to come down to rejoin my route for today. I've been gold panning in the Turon River this year and will be up this way to play sometime as well no doubt. tftc

14146. Found during a run through the Bathurst to Mudgee region this long weekend.

Having completed the southern part of TRLT series last month I had the northern part of the series on my radar for this long weekend - plus as many extras as there are along the way. Leaving home this morning I was caching before lunch on the outskirts of Bathurst heading north. All but two of today's caches were found and all were nicely hidden with good sized containers. This was the next find for the day. Getting dark now so out came the torch. Quick find at GZ. Log signed, cache replaced, and I headed off to the next one.

Thanks to all the COs for their caches - it was a great run up through this area.

TNLN - TFTC !!

Road trip North to tackle The Road Less Travelled Series with JordsAU! I’ve wanted to try this trail for a while but hadn’t found anyone to try it with. I ran it by Jords a few weeks back & after checking the roster for the week, the stars aligned and we started organising it. He was aiming for “200 caches in a day”, so we planned the trail as best we could!

Monday – we drove up to Gulgong to start the trail. We worked our way down to Mudgee (~30 caches) before setting up camp for the night. We had an early night so we could smash out a big day.

Tuesday – packing up at sunrise and setting out, the big day begun! We reached the first 100 by 2:00pm (7 hours elapsed). We were worried that we weren’t going to reach the 200 milestone considered how far we had to go and how long we had been tracking! The stretch from the Great Western Highway to Oberon made great time and we were on 150 caches. Instead of heading into Oberon to set up camp in daylight, we decided the best use of the remaining daylight would be to push through into the night for the last 50. Eventually we were down to the last handful, when we hit an area of the forest that had been logged. To make up the last few, we assumed there would be caches in Oberon, so we drove 50km back to town. We made the 200 at the Oberon Memorial Site and called it a (long) day.

Wednesday – I was all ran down from the big day, so we made our way back home! I found a few in Sydney, and made the drive back down home. It was a good to unpack and have a nice hot shower. Now for the long laborious task of entering these logs!

Thank you to all the Cache Owners along this trail. It was a real joy to visit another part of this great country we call home. It’ll be easier for me to return to the trail via Goulburn/Crookwell to finish off the series (and hopefully visit any further extensions). TFTC’s!

2/5/17 Found with muppet95. Muppet95 mentioned to me that he was keen to hit up The Road Less Travelled series and we decided to take a few days off to go on a bit of a road trip. I wanted to shoot for a goal of finding at least 200 caches in a 24 hours period and we made plans accordingly. We drove up to Gulgong on the first day and arrived in the early afternoon. We started The Road Less Travelled series there and headed south towards Mudgee, picking up approximately 30 geocaches on the way. We spent the night camping on the outskirts of Mudgee and had an early night, with the expectation of an early start to have the best chance of reaching our goal of 200 caches the next day. At the crack of dawn on day 2, we packed up camp and set out on the trail, finding our first for the day at 7 AM. We then spent the next 14 hours travelling The Road Less Travelled, caching the series and picking up some additional caches along the way. We powered on well after the light of day had disappeared, because we were on a mission and were resolute in our efforts to achieve our goal for the day. We reached a point, down near Gurnang in the pine forest, where the area a cache in the series was supposed to be had been logged and we could not continue, without backtracking and going the long way around. We made the decision to turn around and head back to Oberon, where we would pick up the last remaining few to reach our target number. I am very sad to say that on the way out of the pine forest, a wombat ran out as we were driving past and was struck by the underside of the car. We stopped immediately and I rushed over to its aid. The poor thing was in not in a good way and I did what I could to provide some comfort but it faded away within a matter of minutes. The accident is very distressing and upsetting, and it put a real dampener on a long and tiring day. There was nothing we could do at that point, so we continued on our way back to Oberon, picking up some more caches in town. We reached our campsite and setup, keen to rest up and have a deserved sleep in. It was another cold night, definitely dropping below zero degrees. We woke in the morning and, after packing up, we made our way back to the big smoke. Thanks For The Caches to the respective Cache Owners, and for putting this series together, which takes us on a different route along the Road Less Travelled. We will have to come back at another point in the future to try and finish off the series, and hope that one day the series may be extended further for everyone’s enjoyment.

Day 1 of 23 of our caching trip to Alice Springs, finding 300 caches in total. This was find #49 for the day.

We did The Road Less Travelled with Calypso62 and skebomonkeytown, staying at a lovely property in the Capertee Valley for two nights.

Another interesting bit of history and a cache too!

TFTC.

What a fabulous adventure I enjoyed with my great mates, Skyebomonkeytown and Team Canary. Our base was in the Capertee Valley at a friend’s hideaway. We had an early start to get to Mudgee for ParkRun then, after a bite to eat for breakfast, it was time to tackle The Road Less Travelled. It is obvious this series took a lot of effort to organise and to get it up and running. A big thank you to all the COs for your hard work. It is greatly appreciated.

Had a great weekend with Calypso62 and Team Canary attempting the first half of TRLT (most logs signed as a combo of C62 TC and SBMT). We stayed at a friend's place in the Capertee Valley and "commuted" both days through the lovely countryside. We also incorporated the Mudgee parkrun into our weekend on Saturday morning - C62 and my first. Thanks to all COs for the series.

After baulking at the private property / no trespassing signage of course we continued on down TRLT. This was a micro with a difference!

This sneaky little cache was found at 2.45! Thank you for placing! : )

Staying in Gulgong and decided to tackle some of the TRLT series. We had a great day exploring the countryside. This cache was found by 'D' & retrieved by 'J'. SL TNLN Thanks to the cache owners for their time in putting this series together.

Love this one! Great hide! SL TFTC

Up from Canberra on a solo geomission to Bathurst, Mudgee and surrounds The focus of the weekend was to attack as many of the TRLT series as I could as well as any others along the way!

Most of these were found quite quickly and I enjoyed the drive around the countryside collecting them. Apologies for the cut/paste logs - I found so many on the journey I can't possibly remember them all!

Thanks for the hide, alnic39

I took a chance with leaving the GPS in the car, so had to take a guess at where GZ would be, lucky I found it easily. A tad different to the previous ones.

On a caching adventure to Mudgee with pprass we set out to see some country side and some interesting caches.

Day one of the Power Trail - great country side - not a boring drive at all.

Thanks for the cache

Found at 3:09 PM GAFF1 in the company of Team Nurse Hayley.

Thanks alnic39.
