Gosh!
This Hide was a lovely beacon for us today.
We spent some time walking the trails on the northern side near Kambah, finding our way around some of the UFO series.
This was towards the end of the trip, when we were off any trails, so we were happy to see this one close to the road and made a beeline through the Long grass to the road, to this one.
After signing it, we knew it was just a slow walk back down to the car park.
It was a long day, about 11km and this was a lovely log to sign before we headed back to the car.
Thanks Aquilus1

Out finding caches today as part of the Wheel of Challenge souvenir, but with a specific target of finding high favourite caches.

This cache was one of a handful we had our eye on today. Thanks for adding to our challenge score.

#3658 After about 18km riding and now back in the Air Con to pick up the drop off vehicle I certainly felt the heat in the breeze as I stepped out to look for this one. A nice quick find and back to the car. Thanks Aquilus1 for this placement.

Ah yes, the dreaded wire fence. Many a fence has stopped me getting caches before. The dreaded things! Luckily these fences didn't stop me finding this cache! A quick find and sign. TFTC Aquilus1!

-----------

The date is February 25th, the time a little pass 9, and I head off to another geocaching adventure! (well not before various problems leading up to it, but I got there eventually).

My goal is to find the remaining Canberra Centenary Trail caches, that goal however, managed to spectacularly flop on it's face due to me A) me miscalculating distance + elevation and B) me being weak and not being able to ride up a hill properly.

The end result was me calculating the GZ of all of them but only being able to find one because I wasn't able to return to that track without dying. That's pretty annoying, but it will give me a excuse to go back to the bushland so I guess that's fine.

A lovely ride today, starting in Dickson, to Coombs, to Kambah Pool (following CCT), to Tuggeranong, to Macarthur, back to Tuggeranong then returning to Lyneham. Only problems were that the heat is HORRIBLE.

Like I might as well have jumped in the Murrimbidgee river, as then I would have been cooled down!

A surprising lack of grass seeds in my socks by the end, despite the long grass. The only animals sighted was many kangaroos, a few lizards and a single shingleback just lying on the fire trail waiting to be run over.

36 (i think) caches found today, covering 93km and 879m of elevation gain, I am now tired.

Overall, great day and thanks to all the cache owners for contributing to this massive gameboard of ours. TFTC!

Teamed up with AngelG27 for yet another crack at the UFO series and any others along the way. Lovely cool weather for the hike and thanks to AngelG27 for her excellent company as always!

After making the nabs on some of the UFO series, I swung by this one on the way home. Quick find!

Thanks for the hide Aquilus1!

Today I joined Strange Trousers, Kitty Katch and Joolay for a walk along the raging Murrumbidgee to visit the UFO puzzles that we have solved on the eastern side of the river. Before we met up I stopped at the four traditionals along Kambah pool road I had not visited before.

Thanks for the cache Aquilus1

Well this was a little unusual I pulled up and said to myself “haven’t I found this before.” I remembered the approximate date and thought I’ll just check the log. But it was a newly replaced log so now I’ll never know. Never mind. Signed again and all is good. Tftc.

A quick check on my four caches down this way, log was full so have replaced... although did once again notice online logs and paper log do not match.

A reminder to please sign the log or offer photo proof of the log or I will delete your finds as per the guidelines.

Tankengine and I were out and about earlier and on the way home I asked if I could pick up a couple of park and grabs.

This was a staright forward find and I was happy that the car that has been reported as parking here a lot wasn't home today. This was the last one for the day as I had home duties to take care of. So we finished up a nice quick trail then headed home. Tftc Aquilus1!!!

Log full. CO has been notififed.

Cache 5282 on 23 Jun 2019.

Another day, another lot of caches to grab ! While some of them were road side finds, a couple of others were definitely not! Bobl27 and I found 7/7 searched for, which was the right number for the day - I did not have time for a proper caching adventure! Anyhow, all caches found in accordance with the hints provided.

This cache: spotted from the car. Fortunately the wind was blowing away from the nearby dead wombat....

Thanks Aquilus1 for the cache and the fun!

Found by Mary and David, in company with pprass, Grub Fred, Alansee, Phetlern, Gonefishn07, Zobo04 and Tatt2squared (signed as PPAGGZMT or similar), at 1300. Attending the Clear Waters Mega, we made a start on the UFO series and found this cache along the way. We made good progress in the warm conditions, and found most of the caches in reasonably quick time. A relatively easy one to access this time. Our thanks to Aquilus1.

A big day of caching in Canberra today together with J+J.AU. Most puzzles, and some were quite hard, were solved a while ago in preparation for this trip. I left home at 4 am and tne weatner gods were with us today. Lots of walking in partially hard terrain and lots of different difficulty and terrain ratings mafe today very interesting for the statistics.

I've got dogs with me, and I've dropped my lady off at work. Time for a cache. I felt like a bit of a drive, so I'm down here. Out of the car, the cache is nearby so I won't get the dogs out. The cache was a quick grab, and I was just about to return it when Farmers5 fronted up. We had a chat, he pointed me off to the new cache at the model car club, and off we went. Thanks, Aquilus.
