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 Surprised). 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 Big Grin.
 
29-Jul-17
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

Find #1505
With our 1500th cache milestone in sight, we set off on a caching day up into this beautiful region, driving The Road Less Travelled through Palmers Oakey, Dark Corner and Sunny corner. We managed 48 finds (and one little 'bonus' cache) for the day, only one DNF. Starting the day at -2 degrees and thick fog, it turned into a ripper of a day, never really getting above 8 degrees, quite nice in the sun though.
Another great little cache full of nice swag for the kids. Coords for us about 10m out today. TFTC

14043. Found with specimenX during another run around finding the southern half of the TRLT series plus any others as we could squeeze in.

Another big day out with Caching Wench Number 1 starting with an early departure from Canberra, with perfect weather for our ramble along those country roads for many many finds. We found all the caches to be good sized containers and nice hides. Next find of the day. Quick find at GZ with the torch as the sun had gone by now. Signed the log, returned the cache, and we headed off to the next one.

Thanks to all the COs for their hides !!

TNLN - TFTC !!

A last minute plan saw Fitzy_1965 and I heading off to make another attack on the TRLT series and whatever other caches we could nab on the way Big Grin Lots of laughs and perfect weather made for an all round enjoyable day cruising around the countryside caching with over a 100+ caches in the bag! Cool

Apologies for the generic log-We found most of the TRLT series were good sized containers and easy finds with only a handful proving to be a bit of a challenge.

Thanks for the hide, Code1 Big GrinCool

Well hello! Starting to think by some of the items left in this section of TRLT that someone had a party finding! Thank you for this one! : )

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 out caching the Road Less Traveled Series. Cache 15. This one the wife found as I was looking on the wrong area. TFTC.
 
19-Apr-17
Spent the morning travelling from the Limekilns Road and headed towards Meadow Flat along this awesome autumns morning collecting a few caches along the way. Thanks for the maintence of the caches.
 
10-Apr-17
Found with Brewmaker while on a two day adventure finding caches in The Road Less Travelled trail series and other nearby ones.
We started at Meadow Flat and then headed north (having previously headed south on another adventure) through Sunny Corner and Palmers Oakey before camping overnight at Wattle Flat. Then it was on to Sofala Sally's Flat, Pyramul and heading north towards Mudgee before we ran out of time. Will have to come back to finish the series. Most caches were easy to find and it was a very enjoyable drive along these country roads some beautiful scenery, historic places, native animals etc.
Lots of cows here!
TFTCs Big Grin
 
10-Apr-17
Found with MikeV1. The local cows were there to make sure we put the cache back!

Over two days we managed to grab 100 finds while attempting part of TRLT series. We started at Meadow Flat and headed north passing through Sunny Corner, Dark Corner, Palmer's Oakey, Mt Horrible, Turon, Wattle Flat, Crudine, Sally's Flat, Sofala, Pyramul and Aaron's Pass, before detouring to Mudgee to refuel and then head back to Sydney. We had a great time taking the Brewmobile along these rarely used country roads, seeing some amazing scenery, old homesteads, cemeteries, plenty of wildlife and natural landforms along the way. Most of the hides were easy to find with good coords and hints. Thanks to all the COs for the time & effort that has gone onto placing these hides.

This is a great trail and I am so pleased we decided to come this way. 3 Kings and I are well in the groove now and having a ball. We had a great drive through some beautiful country and saw lots of birds and great views. Thanks to the CO for what must have been a lot of work putting these caches out and may "in the snow". Where the pine trees have been harvested it is a shame to see the mess left behind. Please excuse the cut and paste logs. TFTC Smile

The views heading North were absolutely fab. The WEEO and I loved the road less travelled. Thanks for the work to put them all out. TFTC

I thoroughly enjoyed tackling all the country roads doing some of the TRLT trail and other caches on route.
Plenty of exercise getting in and out of the geo-vehicle.
An early start after camping for the night at nearby Coles Bridge.

Awesome scenery from quite a number of geocaches.

Thanks to all the geocachers who have set and maintained their caches in the area. Well done to all.

**Thank you team Code1 for this one.**

Thanks Webby for fixing this one up for me Smile
 
28-May-16
We had searched for this one previously, and it had been confirmed as gone so as we knew we were coming this way today, we brought along a replacement. Signed the new log and secured it into place.
 
28-Mar-16
Looks like its missing.
Will get out there and replace soon.
 
27-Mar-16
Sad face, we spent some time here looking all around and just could not turn this one up at all or any evidence of it.
 
17-Mar-16
This was our first disappointment of the day. We checked the obvious place and the area below but there was no sign of the container or any of its contents. Based on previous logs, perhaps it has gone for a wander again. It may be there somewhere, under all the leaf litter and other natural camo but we could not afford any more time and had to be on our way. It’s a brilliant spot though, so thanks Code1.
 
04-Mar-16
Today while holidaying in Bathurst we decided to do the caches around Turon State Forest in particular the TRLT series. Thank you to the CO's for placing these caches here - it was a great drive to see the countryside and if not for geocaching, would probably not even ventured onto this road. TFTC
 
04-Mar-16
Spending a few days caching around Bathurst and today we are heading out to do the TRLT series around the Turon State Forest. Some fantastic scenery along the way. Thanks to the COs.
 
29-Feb-16
As the others in the group have noted we had to scout around to find all the parts of this cache. Recent rain and the slope are the obvious culprits. Hopefully it will survive the next storm.
 
24-Feb-16
We discovered all those many a couple of days ago.

We have solved all the interesting mysteries before we started our trip to the Mid Western Region of NSW.

Day 1

We started the day in Meadow Flat, followed by Sunny Corner and Dark Corner past Palmers Oakley.
We loved the hilly nature along many peaceful Gravel roads. Many smilies were forming on our map.
We finished the day in Bathurst.

Day 2

We started all fresh again in the morning. Leaving Bathurst, we were able to get going about faster along the sealed road.
We reached Sofala at around lunch time. We couldn't believe that about 40,000 used to live here. It really seemed that the city stopped developing in around the 1850's..
We continued towards Hills End and Windeyer through dry grassy land in 47 degrees heat.
We spend such a beautiful night here in Windeyer in the caravan park. We booked one of the train accomodation where you got to stay in the train back in time. What a great experience. We really liked Windeyer as it seemed so far away from all the city rush. Te locals were very welcoming and were happy to see us in the pub next door for dinner.
What a great community living were it seems like everyone knows everyone.

Day 3

We left Windeyer after a big breakfast. We travelled along Hills End Road until we reached the turn towards another Gravel road. There wer many animals to watch and it got even hotter and hotter.
This day ended in Mudgee.

Day 4

We took a look at Mudgee city today were we searched for a couple of caches and ten continued towards Rylstone.
After we continued to the Wollemi National Park which a good friend recommended us to go. Here we climbed on the top of the mountain and simply enjoyed the stunning view and the tranquil nature.
After, we traveled towards Kandos, Capertee, Cullen Bullen, Portland and Wallerawang back home to Sydney.

We hereby would like to thank all owners for this great interesting tour. We got to see many historical places and sometimes felt like as if we were living back in the the 1850's, which is a good thing.

Thanks
Team sissifalke

With everything said by others in the group I'll just say TFTC and thanks for bringing us along this road.
 
17-Feb-16
Was away from the tree all open in the leaf litter
 
17-Feb-16
We found this one in pieces, scattered all over the place, but we managed to find all the bits and replace it safely. Maybe the recent storms may have bee responsible, but all is well now. TFTC Code1
 
17-Feb-16
Not sure if I aggree with the terrain rating on this one, although dry underfoot the leaf litter was very sippery on the steep down slope. It looked like water had rushed down here, maybe in one of the recent storms, and washed the cache from it's original resting place as it was found in pieces scattered all around the lower part of GZ. So "retrieval" took on new meaning here today! Once done, wet parts of the log were removed and then all was replaced where we thought it should be. TFTC
 
17-Feb-16
As with the other comments from the U3A group today, the cache was found open and down the slope. Contents were also loose. We presume that a storm had washed the contents out from it's little hidey hole. We've secured the lid, and put the cache in a more secure position (but still as per the clue) that should be protected from the storm water.

I can't wait to get on the road again.

Thanks to ALL the CO's that have placed caches along TRLT trail.

This was #21 for Day #3. If you could give a favourite point for a log then Rainbow Spirit's would have to get it for his log on this cache!! LOL!!

We completed this series over 3 1/2 days in total, with a side trip to Hill End which we thoroughly enjoyed. We were heading homeward bound after a couple of weeks on the road, touring and caching around southern Queensland and NSW, and this series topped off a great holiday. Thanks to all COs for their efforts in placing these caches and making this series possible. This stretch was one of our favourite parts. TFTC!
Cheers,

Yebo Code1
and merry christmas
as we are staying at the nearby resort and in desperate need to stretch legs and belly and everything else that grows, we decided to have a caching day and chose your trail !
well done, is what i would like to say to all caches we had found, all of them in a good order and stacked with many colorful swaps.
of course we as tourists, would have not chosen many sites to which this trail brought us, so a big thank you to all of you, the other teams and who are maintaining them. we enjoyed it very much

Found at 11:57.
Today's trip took me from Meadow Flat to Bathurst and back via TRLT. It was hot and windy but a very pleasant day out.
Loved Rainbow Spirits log too! Long pants made it easy to avoid the nettles and grab the cache for signing duties.
Thanks for the cache Code1.
 
06-Dec-15
I had a chuckle while reading Rainbow Spirit's log. I couldn't decide which way to attack this hide without falling down the hill which I'm prone to do. eventually I stopped dithering and made an executive decision which resulted in the log being signed, no nettle stings and was soon on my way down the road to the next one. tftc

Out today with Paul the Hippy. Thanks hippy for driving me around grabbing these caches. We had a great day, even when I got a little grumpy at the end of the day. Woke up after spending the night at medow flats. Had a lovely time finding the ones towards Sunny corner. we even went for a walk and grabbed a few which werent on the series. Got to sunny corner and checked out the old tennis court and dance hall.
After sunny corner we continued to dark corner (great with names out here). Visited acouple of cemeteries and continued down the road until it turned dirt. This was our favourite section oof the series as no cars and felt like we were in the middle of nowhere.
Past Mount horrible we went, thinking why is this called horrible and then onto the tar again. Completed a few puzzles and then back on the series.
Following the black top we went, here the pull offs were better then the second section of the series. Loved the town of Peel, where we grabbed a puzzle and acouple in this series. Got to wattle flat and was exhausted. Had fun with the blackberries in the dead center (NOT). Finally made our way to sofala. Lots of history here and visited another cemetery for a puzzle. Thanks for all the caches, lots of hard work went into these and really enjoyed them. Cheers mr_roo

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there Code1. We found your cache "TRLT - Hairpin" at 11:21:00 AM today. This cache makes our find count 11929.
[Blue]
Today was our last bite of the TRLT series. We camped at the Bathurst Showground and started our run from there. It was a fantastic day for caching, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stroll to each cache. We ended up logging 50 caches (and DNFing 2)

We would have liked to attempt more caches on our way back to camp but the heavens opened as we were attempting the final multi, so we decided we wouldn't like to get any wetter and headed back to camp for a well deserved drink..
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
Cache Condition: The container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt,
Regards

I worried about parking availability when I saw he name of this one, but needn't have, as there is plenty of room for safe parking.

Only one place the cache really cold be, so we went down there and found it.

Thanks Smile
 
25-Oct-15
This was indeed a hairpin turn. There was plenty of room to park though so as to be seen by cars coming in both directions. We got to the spot and it was pretty obvious we had to get a little lower to find the cache. A nice easy find. Thanks
 
25-Oct-15
Thanx heaps to our fellow hider's on this road less traveled, all caches are intact and in good nick, most have geotrails starting to appear, you can tell where coord's are tops and find's in seconds, then there are some that have quiet an area searched as thing's little out !
People please be cautious on the dirt sections as car's do come the other way !!!!
Thanx all again for the time taken on the Road Less Traveled

My tenth cache for today on The Road Less Travelled.

I dodged the nettles here. But the ground is sadly getting eroded by all the cachers. Be carefully and come from the left side looking down.

TFTC.

It pays to pick the right root, kind of like life really. Watch out for the nettles.
 
10-Oct-15
This was day 1 of our travels to pick up some of the caches of the TRLT series. We travelled from Katoomba and decided to camp at Sunny Corner. We found there was a variety of hides and they were all easily found while we were out and about enjoying the scenery and the changing countryside. Thanks for taking us on this country tour with the bonus of finding caches as well TFTC.
 
04-Oct-15
Today was the day to complete my biggest cache run to date. From Mudgee to Gulgong and then follow The Road Less Traveled series and the surrounding caches. I started nice and early at 7:30am, and didn't finish until 11 at night! On the way I saw plenty of lizards, the first snake of the season and smelt many rotting road kill during the day, and at night I had the live kangaroos, wombats, possums and probably all the flying insects banging into my head when I had the torch on.
Over all the experience was worth it and great big thank you to the CO's who put all of the caches out there. Big Grin

When I shone my torch down into the valley from gz I saw about ten sets of eyes glowing. I widened my torch beam and saw a whole bunch of possums sitting in the trees waiting to see what I'll do. By the time I had found the cache and signed the log they had disappeared.
Oh and beware there is a fresh patch of stinging nettles a small step away from gz. My legs were already stinging from a patch I stood in at the beginning of the trip.

6830 Cache Found

Since my residency in New South Wales is coming to an end. I decided a road trip was in order before the big move to sunny Queensland. Headed south down The Thin Back Line south to Sydney then west out towards Lithgow, Meadow Flat and Sofala then Mudgee intending to pick up some of the TRLT Series and others of opportunity. Thanks for bringing me here. What a great start to the Series Well done

Thanks for the great cache and adventure Code1SmileSmile

Reperio!

As I was staying at Mount Victoria for the weekend, I had one day free to do a spot of caching. It was suggested by more than one person (my wife included) that I should visit the TRLT series...so I made a plan to try and find as many of them as I could today. I started out in the very early hours of the morning with Andromeda, and managed to get through each of the caches before the sun went down with approximately 160 finds and only one or two DNF's for the day. Whilst there were plenty of caches to find along the way, what really captivated me the most was the beautiful scenic countryside, houses, and communities seen along the way. I really enjoyed my time visiting this series, and although there were a lot of kilometers to cover, it was well worth the drive. Well done to all involved in creating this series.

Gratias Code1.

With Rats and the mini rats wanting to use the upcoming Mega as a significant milestone we were starting to look around for some quick numbers when this powertrail popped up. The timing couldn’t have been better and plans were soon hatched for a trip out west.

Teaming up with Mizmaz we had a comfortable 2 day drive through some spectacular countryside and under perfect weather we completed the trail. All the hides have an element of uniqueness to the respective owner with some of them being very creative while others offered amazing views.

Thanks to those cache owners who put this trail together. Smile
 
23-Sep-15
The mini rats have officially completed our first powertrail. Helping Mizmaz and the Rats we went in search of some quick numbers. We had a lot of fun finding the caches and camping along the way, except for the cold overnight temps in Sofala.

We didn’t sign all the logs as we are using the Melbourne Mega as our 1000th find, but we did enjoy the experience and the beautiful country side. Thanks for the caches and to everyone that hid them. Big GrinRazz

Teamed up with the Rats and Mini Rats to knock off the powertrail, plus a few extras along the way, through some spectacular countryside. Over a two day trip (which also gave me my first camping experience) found enough variety to keep the hides interesting ranging from standard/no hint descriptions to those with more effort on creative camo/significant locations. Became easy to recognise when there was a change of CO. Had a 100% find rate (other than two offline at the time), coordinates out significantly on only 2 or 3 (these did have other people’s comments that helped where generic logs were the norm) and while we started at the southern end, some parking options would have been safer coming from the north.

Today we completed the TRLT series, we collected those and some others along the way, the weather didn't start so good but cleared up as the day went on. We passed some beautiful landscape, we seen our 1st red belly black snake basting in the sun for the season. plenty of sheep and cattle along the way.
we had a very enjoyable day.
A big thanks to the CO for placing the caches, and showing up their back yards.

On a TRLT run today with JB. Her first big trail day. The weather has improved and the tunes are on as we cruise through some really nice scenery, with a nice picnic packed for later.

Enjoying the caches and happy to be out on a decent cache run myself, something I haven't done for some time. Thanks Code1 and everyone else for the series. Your time and efforts should be applauded.

Made a quick find here. I must admit the cache series name TRLT is very appropriate as the has only been one car travel this road in front of me and car tracks seem to be going exactly where I want to go too.

A planned walk on Lithgow ridges with the Whitemushroom did not get off the ground due to inclement weather. But the mushroom had an alternative and what a great day it turned out to be, not a micro to be seen anywhere, a great series of caches worth every mile of less travelled road.
A grand day out looking for nice well presented caches what more could you want.
Thanks for the caches, loved every one of them.

Joint *FTF* @ 1.00 pm with rogerw3

A dismal Lithgow morn put paid to a walk with rogerw3, the TRLT series set free gave an alternative ... for a well travelled day on the less travelled roads.

A open area and little to hide a cache ... but it still took a wander hither and thither before its tucked away GZ was found. TFTC Code 1 (and your part of the series) Smile
