Logs
We continued today our tour of several AUS states in the NorthWest and thereby searched, found and logged this interesting Traditional-Cache.The weather was - said in one word simply best. The good hidden caches and the being on holidays kept us the whole day in a good mood. The cache had good coordinates, and thus was easy to find. The logbook was okay, and allowed easy logging.Thanks to georode for the generation of this nice cache Flat Creek (with the proper agenda), for leading us here and for showing us this funny location as well as the ongoing maintenance of this cache.PS: Please forgive us the uniform log which is needed due to timing problems - if necessary special actions and happenings are there described where they happened.Greetings from Germany together with the hope to meet somewhere like event or wood.

Wow!!!!Found it and signed it. Pretty happy with ourselves being able to replace it too!!!Tftc!!!
OCW PelDroedGwin towing the caravan with geodog Peppa and geocat Levin in the car.Passing through, we stopped for this one.Found a lot lower than the hint suggested so once wed signed the log we replaced it higher up. Tftc
We stopped to look for this cache on our drive from Georgetown through to Forsayth. After firing up the handheld GPS we quickly located the hide and added our names to the ogsheet. Thanks georode for placing and maintaining this hide.
Heading back out from Forsayth after doing a day trip to Cobbold Gorge. yesterday. it was spectacular. TFTC
Found it TFTC. Put replacement log in plastic bag, inside. Its hiding spot may oneday soon fall off so look to the ground if you cant find it
Great Northern escape 2022 Day 62. Mount Surprise to Western Creek Station near Georgetown. It was only a short drive today. I tried to have a leisurely start, but the birds were having none of that. I headed off and had a smooth drive. Once in Georgetown I walked to the two town caches and then the cemetery for the third. I had a look at the van parks and they seemed very full, so with two more caches out on the Forsythe road I decided to go to western Creek station. Very remote and despite plenty of people, very quiet.
Having decided to come out this way, I was happy that this cache did not cause any problems to be found.
Thanks for the cache georode

Aquilus1 & I are on a mission to visit every LGA in Australia and on this short & sweet 5 day mission we went from Cairns to the Northern Territory and back again. 3400km's, 1 flat tyre, 600-700 kangaroo's seen, 1 hit, and all the other fauna & flora.
What a nuts adventure!
Day 1: Arrive in Cairns at before noon, grab the car and immediately off to Guyala for the first LGA of the day. During the day we saw massive trees, and old virtual and some earthcaches.....and at least 200km of dirt road without seeing anything at all except for one car. Limped into Hughenden from The Lynd about 9:15pm. Had to spend 15 minutes killing mozzies in the room before I was willing to go to bed.
Day 2: Leave Hughenden after admiring the windmill & the dinosaur for a day of largely earthcaches.....and long dirt roads that were marked '4WD only'. Our mightly little pretend SUV ate them for breakfast. Had a mad scramble for accommodation at the end of the day in Cloncurry.....eventually getting a cabin at the 'Road Runner'..... which clearly has a poor reputation based on the looks we got when mentioning it. Local event was great and met TeamPops for the first time.
Day 3: Left The Curry on the way to The Isa.....detoured south a bit before returning and doing some cool gadget caches by drrnrchr...some real talent there! Then off to the NT of course, as you do! From there it was a slog to Burketown...."up the dirt" which was a very poor road. Got the flat right near the end of the worst stretch so then limped in at 50-60km/h for the next 3 hours. I have never seen so many roo's in all my life and I live in Canberra which has a serious roo problem.....it was crazy. We arrived just near closing of the pub & takeaway and the town was in party mode....then 15 minutes later was completely silent.
Day 4: At sparrows got the car to the awesome guys at Nowland to fix the puncture. This was the day for visiting the aboriginal LGA's, we checked in for our 30 minute Mornington Island flights at the Shire Council, first time I have ever done that! Doomadgee was visited as well, the road there being excellent with an exciting river crossing for fun......and we discovered it was actually Mabo Day so we were very lucky to visit on that day, the towns were fascinating, the Rosie's chicken at the Doomadgee roadhouse delicious. Heading east along the Savannah way, we saw a croc & a canberra cacher....of all the things!
Day 5: Another long day from Croydon to Mareeba, with my first Queensland FTF as well on an amazing earthcache at Einasleigh....more swful roads but thankfully these were the very last! As always an interesting hunt for accommodation, but it all worked out.
Day 6: This was a relaxed day just cleaning up the few surrounding Cairns LGA's and cruising into the airport...where they tried to charge me $500 for having a puncture that was now repaired...jeez guys, c'mon! Sorted out quickly but I was set to 'ramming speed' for a few moments.

We were a little concerned about the T of this cache but worth stopping to look any way. As it happened it was a little stretch for me but managed okay without issue or trouble.
With GreyHams we set out on an epic 5 day caching trip from Cairns, to the Northern Territory and back again. 3400km via Burketown with the occasional detour off into different directions as was needed! Looong straight roads, many on dirt or rock and rough but luckily only the 1 flat tyre. Camels, a crocodile, wildlife in abundance of numbers and types and a crazy number of kangaroos after dark it was a little scary! Such a great trip through all the LGA's and we saw so much!
Day 1: We arrived in Cairns after midday to pick up the car with several hours of driving ahead of us to get to Hughenden. With road reports having just changed to open after recent rains it was a little unknown what was ahead of us. 'Drive to conditions and 4WD'... down the Lind in the dark and not a car to be seen for hours... we found out why! Some old caches, virtuals and earth caches to stop at, it was a good start into a few areas otherwise easy to drive by and miss their little discoveries.
Day 2: With reports of snow falling back home in Canberra we woke to a pleasant sunny day of blue sky and warmth. Hughendens windmills and dinosaur visited and then off into the unknown of more dirt roads of 'drive to conditions and 4WD' and a fascinating day of Earthcaches through the region. Cloncurry was our stop overnight and despite its many accommodation options it was a long search before the 'have you tried the road runner?' It proved better than expectations and as usual things just worked out. The Leichharde for dinner was a good snitty hotel, an event at the central was great to meet some local cachers and proved to be the steak place as we saw!
Day 3: The most epic of all days of the trip in the distance and events. Leaving The Curry it was up to The Isa, some local caching, local cachers and then south for a bit before returning through The Isa and off to the Northern Territory. Camooweal to Burke 'up the dirt' rough, rocky, lots of creek crossing, AKA 'dips' and a bit of water in places. A flat trye slowed things dramatically, after the crazy number of little kangaroos and 3 hours to travel 160km we limped into a thriving Burketown relieved to have made it with only 1 roo casualty. The hotel was a busy and friendly place, dinner at the closing TA and then the hotel closed and silence...
Day 4: Started off at the great guys at Nowlands who had the tyre repaired quickly. Checked in for our flight to Mornington and then off to the Burketown bore and wetlands while we wait, cool spot! Doomadgee missed the day before, we squeezed it in today which was worth the drive, the roos of the night made way for so many wedgies on the road and stopped overnight in Croydon at a great Queenslander hotel with the best meals and the best sauces to go with them. Yummy, caching fuel!
Day 5: Croydon to Mareeba, with a FTF opportunity at Einasleigh Gorge, great geology and a lovely discovery, lunch at the hotel and then off down some more dirt roads, creeks, water and corrugations, the road crews keep busy out these ways and we were pleased to meet some along the way! A little scramble for accommodation but Mareeba pushed us a little further and was well placed.
Day 6: A casual morning collecting a few local LGA's around the Cairns area before returning the tough and mighty little hire car and the flights down south to winter... aargh! Sunny Queensland, you will be missed!
Such a great trip, long days, long roads, landscapes and wildlife of such variety and abundance. Great caches, people and memories. Thanks for your cache that guided us through this area!

Found it! Found this one with WayneO after a day at Cobbold Gorge. Log was soaking wet but was able to scratch our names on the log. TFTC
TFTC. Nice quick find on the way home from a great day out to Cobbold Gorge with Dat87
After getting into Forsayth later than expected last night as we had chosen the wrong road and a very swollen flooded river blocked our patch so we had to come in via Georgetown so there was no caching done on our way in.
Today with a nice fresh start we headed out to Enslaigh to grab the two out there before heading our way towards Croydon.
We weren't planning on doing any fossicking today but we did turn down the road and then went fossicking for a cache. We bought out the TOTT and had a little trouble locating the cache and then Diane spotted it, we had climbed a little bit too high. At least know we can say that the logbook now contains our name and all has been replaced as it was.
Many thanks Georode for the hide and for the stretch of the legs.

Fun, adventure, travel, history, geology, mental stimulation, social gatherings, support and friendship are just some of the elements of geocaching.
Out and about enjoying the opportunity to grab a few caches, yours being one of those I targeted on my journey today. Thanks ??

Found on the way out of cobbold gorge. Easy find but I feel we earnt the DT rating just for surviving the horrendous road condition in a 2wd. We loved it there but wouldn’t visit again until it’s fully sealed. The log is in tatters and it seems others have just stuffed more in on top of it. I signed an existing piece so as not to add to the crowding. TFTC
After spending 3 weeks travelling from Cairns to Cape York and back with FeatherWaite and another friend from Hobart, we headed off on our separate ways home.
With the current dynamic covid situation and the restrictions in place in terms of entry back into SA, I haven’t really decided on my final route, but I was in no hurry!
I am making my way west towards Karumba.
I spent much of yesterday visiting the Undara Volcanic National Park to check out the Kalkani Crater and the lava tubes, then camped at the Einasleigh River last night.
This morning I noticed that there were some caches further south near the towns of Einasleigh and Forsayth, so decided to do a loop down there, then back up to Georgetown.
It was a bit of a deviation, but I’m glad I did it as it was quite a pleasant drive and the scenery was great. It was good to check out the two old mining towns and the Copperfield Gorge was worth seeing.
This cache was a quick find.
Thanks georode for the cache.

Travelling west to do some caching and this was one we targeted and found. Thanks for hiding and giving us the opportunity to explore.
Stopped to find on the way out from Cobbold Gorge, cache was easy to reach and might not be where the CO intended but replaced as found, thanks for placing and

Very cool hide, took me a bit to find, the first dry log book of the day, so signed and returned!
wow people from lilliput land have no hope of reaching this cache lucky we had a tall person who was able to get it for us signed and replaced at a lower level tftc
This was a fun one! Climbing the tree was fun and easy but dropped my pen on the way up. Good thing, as I really struggled to get the log out (needed tweezers). The log was basically destroyed, so I've put some fresh paper in there.
After no luck at western creek with the gold it was nice to finally find something!
Wouldn't you know it. My failed PAF from Forsayth decided to ring back plus another, just as we were heading to this cache so that I forgot about where we were going until we were 4 kms north of GZ. I told Pa not to worry, but he very graciously turned around and back we went. On arrival there was another vehicle there with their phones out hunting. Or so I thought. I introduced myself and asked if they were geocaching and to my delight even though he said no, his wife used to and so they knew what it was all about. Adding to my great pleasure he then was like a monkey in retreiving the cache and handing it to me to sign. How fortunate was that. I agree with others before me - an easy find and needs some thought regarding retrieval and replacement. Thanks for the cache georode. Deserves a FP for my wonderful experience meeting such great people at your cache.
I could see the cache but how to get it. I had to be innovative. I came up with an idea that worked. Getting the cache back in place was much more difficult than retrieving it. But I managed.
2nd and last for the day - more important things intervened, liking find a repairer for our broken window.
I might be older, but I'm still agile and tall enough to be able to get the cache. Quite a bit of traffic goes by here

Log needs replacing very worn. Loved the morning gymnastic expertise displayed by hubbie in retrieving cache.
We stopped by to grab this and one on the way to Forsayth.
Spotted the cache very quickly and Geohubby very kindly called upon his Simian ancestry to grab it.
We signed the log (which is getting very hard to remove from it’s container due to the fraying of the sheets of paper). Tweezers would be very useful now.
Many thanks for a great hide georode

On our way from Cobbold Gorge to Atherton today. This cache was a treat for geoson. TFTC
Here for the night and wanted some caches. Thought this one may be a bit out of our reach but where there’s a will there’s a way tftc
Found at 10:30am on the 04-10-2017.
We spotted it before we even got out of the car, so it was a very quick and easy find, getting it required a little more effort though.
Thanks for placing this interesting cache.

That was a tricky one- lucky we had geokids to help with the retrieval process. TFTC

Day 10 of our tour up to Cooktown and then around the outback to the west of Cairns...and our last day as we headed back to Cairns...to fly home the next day. I nearly missed this cache as we headed into Georgetown from Cobbold Gorge. I hadn't checked my GPS for a while and discovered that we were just about on top of it. Happy not to have gone past it, I went hunting and with a little heroics I had the cache in hand.
Thanks georode for putting this cache here.

Found at 5:19 PM GAFF3.
Took a detour from the Gulf Development Rd to do the two caches that are here. As we arrived to this one we were a bit concerned that it may have disappeared as there was debris all around which looked to be the remnants of a flood. However c-pprass soon spotted the safely held cache and after a bit of a discussion on how to retrieve it we had the container safely in our hands.

We stopped at GZ on our way back to Mt Surprise. The clue had us wondering... then we spotted it. Oh... THAT four m! Good one. .
Not too hard to retrieve after all. Log signed and replaced as found.
Thanks for the fun we had getting your cache georode.

Great find. 2nd to sign log book. Left our tag for next to visit. Enjoyed the challenge. Saw a bird in the tree!
Couldnt believe that this one hadnt been found yet. This is a clever cache hide and such a bonus to find out here. First to sign the blank log and gain the honors of an FTF.. cache was replaced exactly as found... fave point for this hide. Found 8/6/16 . Will log on line asap when back in Internet access. .
