Nice sunny Sunday over in Hawkesbury region with Graubunden. One of many geofinds out there. TFTC Cruiseforever
Quick find with accurate coords and helpful hints. I had a great afternoon caching around the Richmond - Kurrajong area before the Beer O'Clock Event in North Richmond. OCW Gavingo4 and GHHH. TFTC Cruiseforever
OCW EverestHigh and Googlehihihi. another quick find here, the object from the hint was located quickly and so was the cache.
Exactly where we thought (although I thought it meant the tire on the next door field XD)! I couldnt put it exactly where I found it as there was cobwebs and my fear of spiders was not letting me but I still think it pretty hidden.
We are on another short (three day) caching holiday in North Western Sydney, staying for two nights in a park cabin at the Ingenia Holidays Avina BIG4 Holiday Park at Vineyard. Hoping to collect some previously solved Mystery/Puzzle caches, complete some Adventure Labs, and accumulate enough cache finds for this month’s "Wheel of Challenges" easy & hard souvenir chase. Photos will be uploaded to some (most) logs on our return to home base.
Today (day 2) we explored the areas around Wilberforce, Ebenezer, and Sackville. Completed a five stage Adventure Lab, as well as a couple of random Adventure Lab stages (waypoints), and collected numerous Traditional caches, a previously solved Mystery/Puzzle cache, a MultiCache, and a Virtual cache. This was the 6th of 31 finds for the day (day 2), and 26th find of the holiday.
This one was next, after turning off Freemans Reach Road and into Argyle Reach Road, and it was another nice quick find on arrival at GZ. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. It was lucky the nearby turf farm had turned off it's sprinklers when we were at the previous cache (Argyle), as the area around this cache was very wet when we arrived, so suspect we would have gotten ourselves quite wet if we had arrived a few minutes earlier.

A lovely simple find in good condition. A simple trip down the road form the other find at the start of the road. Simple and quick. Thanks
It was cooler today, so we thought we would just go for a hunt around this area and pick up some caches to put some more smileys on the map. This cache was an easy find and the log was soon signed with no muggles around. All was replaced as found. TFTC.
Quick find after a pleasant family lunch at The Church Bar in Windsor. Thanks for maintaining this cache!
Out and about on a sunny and warm day in September finding previously unfound caches north of the Hawkesbury River around Freemans Reach, Glossodia, and Wilberforce. Most were pretty easy to find, although parking wasn't always easy. Amazing to see the erosion and destruction surrounding these caches located close to the river bank after floods earlier in the year. SL TFTC Cruiseforever!
A narrow dusty road which was in good condition. Spotted the cache which was at a convenient height for me. Great. A little bit of water in it. Otherwise logsheet okay to write on. TFTC Cruiseforever
A straightforward find as I take a drive around the turf farms of Freemans Reach ahead of going where I need to go in Windsor today.
Thanks for the hide Cruiseforever.

Today was a road trip around the Hawkesbury area. An ambitious list of caches to find as I set myself a target of reaching 10,000 finds by year end. Covid-19 lockdown put a spanner in the works and I now have only two months to find the remaining 200+ caches. So rather than interesting caches, I had to schedule a day in the car and go for quantity, rather than quality.
A quick find. This was the first time I actually stood on a carpet while retrieving the cache.
This is 9 of 61 finds today. TFTC!

I’m back working in the area and noticed this cache has finally had a maintenance done on it and the cache that was washed away in the floods replaced. No wonder I don’t find it on two previous visits??
Now that it was back where it should be it didn’t take long to find it.

I’m working in the area and I’m looking to grab some nearby caches.
This is my 3rd visit to try and find this cache, each time I’ve been here the turf farmers have been in the fields tending to the grass, so a thorough search has not been possible.
My first instinct was to search the ‘Corner post’ but nothing and the GZ coordinates didn’t offer any better results. Perhaps my next visit will be more rewarding.
Guess I’ll head to Argyle 3 and hope for better luck.

Did not find today. The area is overgrown, and the floods had brought with them, a mattress that was balancing in a nearby tree.
Managed to pull over onto the side of the road which allowed the tractor to pass by easily.

Fumbled around on the wrong side before realising our error. Quick find at the correct spot. Tnsl Tftc
Found at 8:30 AM GAFF3.
Wanted another quick find as it was a tricky spot to park and a tractor was on its way Went to the first obvious corner, but nothing was there and so I then went over to the hidden one
Thanks Cruiseforever.

Great day of caching near the Hawkesbury River. Started in Ebenezer with the AL, unfortunately very unsuccessful as the location service on my phone was struggling and could not fix on the wp's I needed. Luckily I also made a good plan for other caches so the day turned out productive. Weather was really good, about 20 with a little breeze and nice and sunny.

Was out this way ordering some turf, and noticed a few caches within easy reach of my route. Nice little elevated spot here. All farms were busy watering their turf and crops.
Awesome cache next to beautiful fields. Went for the trackable however nowhere to be seen. Anyways still cool, tftc!
Find number 4667.

I was on the hunt today for some caches to try and complete the Mystery At The Museum promotion. I successfully found this cache and added to my tally. Thanks to all the COs for placing their caches for me to find.
