Another great caching day with georode. Picking caches along the way going north as far as we can.

Thank you for the cache Sweet-Sour. Took ages to find but coords were actually good! It just took awhile to settle.

An early morning start and meeting E_Smiley in Gympie for a full day of caching in the area.

Thanks for the fun!

Georode

That took us quite a while. Eventually we got it. TFTC

Hi there Sweet-Sour, we found your cache Sunlander Ghost today.

Now that we’ve moved to Maryborough, it’s time to collect some caches in our "new” local area.

We chose a start point and followed a pseudo “next closest" route today. This was a nice, quick find.

Coordinate Accuracy: We found this cache near where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: The container and log are in good shape.

Regards
Ian & Penny

First cache for the day.. it was a challenge, tftc.

Heading north today from Gympie via the back roads to Tiaro and picking up cahes along the way and this was one of them. I parked nearby and once at GZ the cache was soon in hand and after signing the log all was returned as found.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for me and others to enjoy.

We took the easy way and actually parked quite close after finding somewhere to turn the vehicle around. After a search when we almost gave up, at last the cache was spotted - why didn't we look there first up! TNLN SL TFTC

TFTC. We had not been out in a little while and with a new souviner in the offing we decided to head out along the Netherby Road and then circle back to Maryborough via Bauple. We had not been along these road previously so it was a leisurely trip. We attempted and found 22 caches in the Tiaro-Gundiah-Bauple area. Thnaks to the CO’s for putting these out so we could explore the area.

Logging old caches originally found with alphag_25. Now have my own account and logging them separately so that I can claim the finds.

30/6/21 Staying in Tiaro and seeing the sighrs and grabbing some caches. Great searching along old railway tracks. I am on holidays from Mackay. Rainy weather today. TFTC SL

I believe that hubby took the hard way into the cache, but so it be. SL TFTC

Tftc Sweet-Sour, we are staying in Maryborough for a few more days.
Headed out this way today to collect a few smilies.
Found the easy way in. cache in good condition

Tried the easy way ..... pretty overgrown now , but worked out ok TFTC

Headed to Hervey bay for my annual pilgrimage to see my daughters on their first day of school for the year. Lucky there's a couple of hundred of caches between Hervey Bay and home.

This was cache **59** of **70** All caches were found with ease and in good condition unless otherwise said, and I thank each of the Cache Owners for placing and maintaing these caches. I apologise for the generic logs, it doen't mean the effort has not gone unnoticed.

Choose the easy way and ended up with a very nice and easy find.

Thanks for the cache **Sweet-Sour**

Starting the trip home and decided to make a quick stop to grab this cache. As it happens I think I went the hard way in. Out wasn’t much easier although a little less bushy but required 2 fences

Easy find after a nice wander down the track, watch out for the spider and babies that live close

Found this one ok the easy way.

Heading from Brisbane to Bundaberg and decided to take this detour and collect along this country road. Thanks to the COs for placing and maintaining these caches to enhance our enjoyment of caching.

Out and about caching today on the way to Bundaberg. Decided to do these caches west of Bauple. Thoroughly enjoyed finding these caches in the countryside. Caches were found and logs signed. TFTC Sweet-Sour.

Easy find

This one took two attempts. Finally I've made some progress with this series of five caches along Netherby Rd. 4 out of 5 I've found now. TFTC

Out and about with Dad(aka Sweet&Sour) I'm still doing his maintenance checks
This cache is all good
Tftc

We parked in a safe place and walked down the track on a nice morning drive to Maryborough. All good with this cache. TFTC

Hooray thanks for share DeafVW

This was enjoyable! Thanks for the hide, we love seeing old ruins

Found with Nyssaflutterby on our escaping reality for the weekend road trip!
We had a plan to find the most caches in a day for both of us (for me just 52, for Nyssa 122!) so after completing a trail we continued on caching for the rest of the day. We could have found a lot more but the heat was against us.
I didn't realise the line had been moved up here, so these caches were all very interesting.
I was glad to find the cache where I was and realise Nyssa had already taken us the easy way!

Wombles and I were on a mission today. A week ago I had a crazy idea of trying to better my top finds in a day. So this is how we found ourselves in this part of QLD. With a new power trail available it was the perfect place. We had just completed all of the available 101 series and now only needed about another 20ish caches.

I’m glad I read the description for this one before we arrived. There certainly is an easy way to GZ. I even managed to turn the car around after a ten point turn, it does help to have a tiny car some days. While I was manoeuvring our vehicle wombles hopped out to start searching. By the time I was the right way around she had the beasty in hand. Go team!

Thanks for the cache Sweet-Sour

On our way home to Landsborough after spending a few great days caching in the Maryborough Area. Like previous finders, I went in the difficult way and found the barbed-wire fence and then slid down the bank, found the cache and signed the log before taking the easy way out although it was a lot long walk. TFTC Sweet-Sour

Didn,t take the easy way in. TFTC

Quick find. Tftc

In hindsight, it seems we took the hard way. Bashing through the high scrub and bushes we found ourselves on the wrong side a barbed wire fence. Not to be deterred, the fence was scaled and a few meters walk led to a slippery slide down to the cache and duly signed. The return trip was no easier and a few bits of skin and blood were left as proof of our visit. Thanks for the challenge Sweet and Sour.

Did not pursue. Attempted but met a barbed wire fence, we’ll leave this one for the locals and those who have time to take a wander.

Went for this one on The way home.
Bush bashing was fun but came to a barbed wire fence and thought better.
Maybe another say

Heading home today. Taking the very slow and scenic route. This was part of my target for the day. A pedal along this road and then a detour in the car to collect the last two warriors I needed.

I parked near the easy way in and set of on the bike. A nice easy pedal to GZ along the grass.

We were unable to find the easy or the hard way to the cache. I did come accross lots of farmers friends & came away looking like a porkypine.

Lovely walk there got it TFTC

We came across your cache, Sweet-Sour, while on our way home from a few days on the Cap Coast .

Nice quick find after a short brisk walk. The grass on the track has been cut within the last couple of weeks so all good. Took the Ghosts geocoin to move him on.

Log signed and cache replaced at 2:59 PM on May 31, 2018. TFTC.

We were doing a few in the Tiaro area and walking through the tall grass for quiet a few of yours Sweet and Sour, but this one was a no go. Will be back to have another look hopefully when the grass is slashed, or someone else has blazed a trail

Interesting. Narrow road.

Out caching today with friends BirdsvilleTrack. Lovely scenery and we enjoyed finding the cache in this location. Made a day of it and had lunch at one of the country pubs. Thanks to Sweet-Sour for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area. Left one of the trackables we collected in the USA to bring into Australia to continue its travels.

Out geocaching with geo family. 22nd find for the day. TFTC

A day of geocaching with the family before I head home.

Took the hard way to get this one.

Taking the, ah, ghost train detour back from Bundy to Brissy today, and appropriately this was the first container discovered. No idea on "easy" ways - not something I typically bother with. Apparently. No snakes were harmed in the finding of this cache (can black snakes hear girly screaming? - asking for a friend).
Thanks for placing this cache, Sweet-Sour. Found in good condition.
*{Overall find #5353}*

Not knowing the area well we did it the hard way. Bush bashed, scaled barbed wire fence, then descended sheer drop off. Signed log then reversed the process to get back to the car. TFTC it's been an adventure doing it.

Knowing Tiaro quite well we found the easy way with the turn of our car tftf

We walked in to find this cache but when we saw the steep way down to find it we decided it was best not to do it due to being mature cachers but thanks for placing this cache for other cachers to find Sweet-Sour.

I think I took the easy way in to find this cache today
The three minute stroll was welcome exercise [^]
As was the three minute stroll back to the geomobile after the three minute search for the cache

No ghostly trains went past

Found it with bikesu on my way home.Tftc

On our way back home from wonderful holidays around Airlie Beach and Rockhampton. Enjoyed sightseeing, meeting fellow cachers and getting smilies.

Now on a little caching detour.

Tftc Sweet Sour

Well what can I say, all that scrub bashing and fence climbing!!! Gotta be a geocacher to enjoy that hey.

6416 Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1030. Parked at the driveway not far from gz and wandered through the scrub. Never been known to do things the easy way. Had a barbed wire fence and a bit of an incline to negotiate when at about 11 metres from gz. Took some looking to eventually. In good condition. SL Tnx Sweet-Sour

Had a ball checking out the old railways

Found Ok

Travelling around Australia and currently staying in Tiaro, Queensland for a few days .

Headed out with a list of nearby caches and places to explore today. An early start as we were expecting 34degrees today. Interesting day visiting some small towns and following the old railway line.

All caches on our list were found We found your cache with good coords and in good condition. Log signed then we replaced the cache where we found it.

We took the easy approach and made this a driveby.

TFTC Sweet-Sour

Gee I got a few scratches at the last just as bad this time Oh Well it's caching - Good Fun . I slid down a bit !
Signed logbook 6/10/2016 4:30 pm and replaced all as found.
1 x TB Visited = Aussie Kangaroo 2016
Sweet-Sour - TFTC. And Thanks for the series !

took the easy way found it

I had it in the caching plan to come to Gympie today to do the (13) new ones that this CO had placed. I contacted Keith (Sweet-Sour) to see if he wanted to come for a drive as I anticipated he had at least two of his hides to maintain and he accepted the offer. Checked the internet last night and saw a new hide in Maryborough and 8 more from Sweet-Sour. Apologies for cut and paste logs as I have a lot to write.

I do not actively chase ftf but I will take them if I come across one or two or three or more. 38 hides in the plan today. 36 finds, 1 did not attempt as I did not have a ladder with me, and one
( The emperor ) I did not go out of my way to attempt as it was now dark on our return to Gympie.

No DNF's but came awfully close to one or two but persistent paid off. Left home at 0545 and arrived at the residence of Sweet-Sour at 0615. 486klmn drive today, home to home, and arrived home at 2000hours. Long day but there were many breaks along the way. We drove from Gunalda to Maryborough to Wolvi then to Cooran then to Kin Kin then to Mapleton then Amamoor then back to North of Gympie.

This was the next one in the plan and did not take long to find at all. Sweet-Sour tended to walk slightly away from each GZ leaving all the hard work to me and that is what should happen as it gives the CO a good chance to check his placed co ordinates. Keih and I nearly allways have a gapof about 3 meters. Not too difficult toi find with good co ordinates. I still do paper caching and only load a few at a time into my GPSr. Have the smart phone as a backup now but initially I was not going to load the APP.

Very good hide and the jpourney to this one was exciting. Thanks for the company and TFTC Sweet-Sour.

Yay another FTF
Had some fun with this one.
Note to self, read the cache page before looking for the cache.
We parked on the side of the road and bush bashed towards the cache, some of the grass was taller than me. What we will do to find a cache . Got to 3m from the cache and a 3m drop to were it was, too dangerous to go any further this way so back through the bush to the car. Did a uturn and drove back the way we had come and found where we could go off the road to the cache. Walked in and found the cache just below were we had been 10mins before.

What a great feeling when you open the cache and the log book is clean
Another great cache
