Last Easter, Seffnjarah and I road tripped our way south to Armidale and surrounds, camping, caching and hiking along the way. I had planned a similar trip this Easter to Maryborough and then west to Mt Walsh and was joined at the last minute again by Seffnjarah.

First order of business this morning was to climb Mt Walsh. After a successful mission, we visited Biggenden, where we collected the Adlab cache and I managed to secure a most excellent steak burger from the cafe in town. After collecting a few local Biggenden caches, we are now wandering south collecting a mix of interesting and unloved caches, including this one.

No luck here. Second DNF in a row.

Like the previous seeker, we came up empty handed here, only finding recent tree fall debris.

01/01/2022 Attended the event hosted by Sweet-Sour today and was good to meet up with fellow cachers. After the event headed out to cleanup some caches around north Kilkivan. Signed the logsheet and returned cache to its hiding hole. Thanks for making this cache for my enjoyment. TFTC SL

**Found Thursday 28-October-2021 at 13:13 Smiley #1518**

Drove from Beaudesert to Hervey Bay and back in a day for one of my daughters awards presentation. 820 kilometers broken up by caching and meals. Really appreciate the CO's placing all these caches, and I certainly appreciated the air conditioning more on a hot 35 degree.

All the logs are in good condition unless specified otherwise, and they were all found with ease unless specified otherwise. Log was wet though

Cache logs are either stamped, signed with Rogersclan13 or just RC13 for space. Thanks for the cache and thank you for breaking the drive up **Sweet-Sour** Big Grin

Saturday morning and I decided to head to Dayboro once more to complete the Horse geoart, minus the disabled one, a few more of the We?? Geo and of course anything else that got in the way.

It was reasonably quiet on the back roads and apart from a few dodgy parking spots all caches were found in good condition.

All logs were signed and all were returned as found.

With the weather clearing it's time to hit the frog & toad again.
We thought Maryborough might be nice for a change but we couldn't help detouring via the backroads north of Kilkivan which still have so many caches on offer. Smile
#28 of 55 smilies rounded up today. Big Grin

Quick find by Mrs VC after Mr VC stepped straight over it.
Log damp but still workable.
Yep ... a BIG rock!
Made our mark & replaced as found.

Hi there Sweet-Sour.

We found your cache **"Marodian"** today. (This makes our find count 25629).

Back to start some more cache trails from Kilkivan. Today's plan was to head north up Running Creek Road and then continue on to Brooweena - Woolooga Road

It was a really nice drive today, made even better by not having to wade through long grass to find the caches. Our tally today was 44 caches & 0 DNF's.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache within a few metres of where our GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Either a smiley badge or a gold coin

Thank you for adding to our adventure.

Regards

Ian & Penny

Out on a mission with Willis007 and Chamad. I thought the morning adventures were fun, but this trip really added to it. So many laughs. So many issues (rarely with the caches - they were the easy parts!). A huge afternoon that turned into and even bigger night.

Day 2 of the New Year event at Kilkivan. Having a wonderful time meeting new cachers as well as catching up with some old faces.
After gathering heaps of caches this morning, it was time to pack up at camp as I needed to head towards home.
TripleTurmoil and CHAMAD decided to join me on the journey up north to find some more new and older caches. We had a super fun afternoon racing around finding these caches, and very much appreciate the CO efforts with these.
This was a quick find, log signed, cache replaced as found.
Thanks Sweet-Sour for the cache.
 
02-Jan-21
After a tumultuous morning of caching it was decided to go out with just three of us this time and cache some of the new caches and grab some older ones as we passed. So now it was just Willis007, 4hawkers and myself. I really thought we could not have any more laughs but the day just continued and I had a stitch from laughing so much.

The caches on this trip were varied, a variety of sizes and hides but all were in good condition. The countryside around here is amazing and just beautiful, thank you for bringing us around here.

Thank you to all the CO’s for placing caches around this area, I really enjoyed the drive around here and finding your caches. Sorry for the generic log but we found approximately 70 caches this afternoon.

This was a nice set of caches down this road.

Caching with my main squeeze, Oddiewan and our new little geopup. We have Liz and Bruce in the geomobile with us today. Oddiewan has his eyes on a new milestone so it’s a long day of caching ahead. A really neat spot caching has brought us to.

Thanks for the fun, Sweet-Sour

We received an invite to attend the newbies caching event in Kilkivan. So we thought why not. Back again. Such a great event.
So many new caches.

Hervey Bay - Kilkevin
It was pouring with rain as we left Hevey Bay, as we moved from the coast the skys cleared & turned into a great day for caching.
Todays round trip was approximately 150ks, all in very quiet farming country side.
All had good co-ords which meant for easy finds.
Thanks for placing this amazing series Sweet-Sour

1minniemoo,nyssaflutterby,1giantpanda and I had a weekend away planned, we had to change thing a little at the last minute due to the weather. The weather looked good up this way and it was!
Saying goodbye to Bundy now and on to our return journey, though not in the typical Bundy_brissie fashion of course!

It took a few kilometres more for me to realise the connection of the name of this cache.
Another nice quick find.

Of course I was out of reception while we were out here and didn't have this cache or the next couple loaded into my ph. Thankfully Wombles&Co did, and we made a quick find while 1GiantPan snoozed in the car.
Thanks for the cache Sweet-Sour.

On the way home from a great climb up Mt Walsh, 2 carloads of geocachers stopped on the way back to find a few smilies more. We split up and searched the rock pile, and before long the container was found.

Thanks for the hunt **Sweet-Sour**, this find makes Smile #4008. Discover our TB

After climbing nearby Mt Walsh, we started our Journey back to Brisbane. Couldnt think of a better way to break up the journey!

This one was our fifth pit stop.

2 carloads got out to have a look for this one. As they say, many hands make nice quick finds!

Thanks for the cache Sweet-Sour

Find number 418 for me!
 
12-Aug-17
After a successful Mt Walsh climb, two car loads of cachers staggered their way back to Brisbane to snare a few caches along the Brooweena - Woolooga road. Really the caches didn't stand a chance and this was one of the causalities for the day.

Spotted a few cattle, some sheep and sheep dogs on the road side on the way home. Didn't see too many on the way there, a small worry!! A good day out with great company. Thanks for maintaining this cache Sweet - Sour.
 
12-Aug-17
There were two cars of cachers driving home to Brisbane after climbing Mt Walsh and somehow the lead car sped past this cache. Once they realised we had stopped they quickly turned around. Due to the lack of phone data we were caching by the seat of our pants. Any reload or refresh of data and we knew our caching day was done. Along the way a few phones fell by the way side but cachers are a resilient bunch.

It was good to make a find, and it was a great shared effort for some quick caches on our drive home. I spent some time here to reflect on a great day. tftc
