This series has added some interest to our walk along Bengello Beach. TFTC!
Reperio 06:42Day 4 of our NSW south eastern caching tour, and Master Vitruvius and I travelled from Batemans Bay to Eden. The biggest factor of our travels today was the wind. Often blowing so hard it was a challenge to both get the log signed and hang onto zip lock bags. The journey along the coast was fantastic. With rain threatening to arrive early the next day, we aimed to get as much done as we could, and so concentrated our effort on ticking off the caches along Bengello Beach. Found most of the caches we searched for, so it was a great day out.Gratias YoubanAs a well spent day brings happy sleep, a well spent life brings happy death - LDV
With strong winds forecast all day we didn't venture far from home, but couldn't resist checking out the Bengello Walk series. We intended to do this on bikes so went out to check the lay of the land to see whether that was feasible or not. It certainly is, and we will attempt the full series once the weather calms. Hides were in good condition and coords on the whole good. Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache Youban.**SKI Pair****
Accompanied by ALL7, Nice weather was partly cloudy with little showers, then a little while later, it became fully sunny, we travelled to Broulee to run a series of heaps of caches. Some drove, some walked, and some biked. Some (WOW) excellent ones are interesting, look at clever ones on the drifferent types of caches in different ways. Love it. Signed the log by the stamp of us. TFTC

Staying at Broulee Caravan park, and today we got the bikes down after a long period of not being able to ride. A cool but sunny day doing the Bengello walk.Total Caches Found 16275TFTC Youban
3rd of 17 found today.An overnighter at the coast with a bit of traveling required. FFP was mostly patient but toward the end was wandering off trying to see how close she could get to the next cache without a GPSr. This accounts for a number of my embarrassingly high DNF count as I didn't want to have her waiting too long. FFP spotted this one while I was still making notes for the last find.The cache is in good condition.TFTC Youban and the winning GT
Out for a day of caching on the South Coast with Steeba and The Rats, aiming for a few series and finishing with the 20th Anniversary Earthcache Event.Hot day for a walk, bet we will be wishing for a sea breeze by the end. Let's see howany of this series we can knock over.Cheers
Headed down the coast for a day mainly to celebrate the Wasp Head event with The Rats and Hoojar but found plenty of caches along the way for a nice day out.TFTC!
Out for a days caching with steeba and Hoojar. We had a lovely day on the south coast. This was one of many we found throughout the day.TFTC

A day out caching with Bogonghazy. Quick find. Thanks for placing the geocache
Out again today with LittleBoss2 to knock off as many of these as we can. These are new containers to us. Thanks again Youban
Spending a few days down around Broulee and Moruya to gather a few caches. After booking into the nearby campground had an hour and a bit of daylight so decided to start on the nearby caches. Some really cool and innovative containers. This one eluded me on Monday but back to-day quickly spotted. TFTC.
A couple of days at the coast.
Cool, but beautiful and sunny; definitely warmer than Canberra.
We made our way down yesterday, stopping along the way for a few adventures and a couple of caches, a pie in Braidwood for lunch then we set up camp in Tomakin for 3 nights.
An awesome place to stay, and right by the river, we have a spectacular sunset (see photos).
Today we tackled this awesome series.
For many years, we used to stay at Mossy Point in the summer and run/ride this beautiful trail. We would make our way to the airport and watch the “cigar” plane take off or land.
Today, we also watched a skydiving plane take off and then paused on our walk to watch the parachutes, skydivers land.
In later years, quite spontaneously, our son flew us in a small 4 seater plane to the Moruya airport, and we picked up a FTF (unexpectedly), just 50 metres from the airport!
Today we were on foot, and it was a long walk.
About this series. It is beautiful and awesome forest/beach trail.
The care in creating the hides is lovely; none of the hides are “hidden”. All out in the open but invisible unless you are truly looking. Most were quick finds, however 2 or 3 took us somewhat longer.
Our name is in the log for all.
We say a big thank you to Youban for this awesome series.
Now onto the bonus final…

Catching up with some very late logs. This was found while staying in the area and grabbing just a few for the day.
This was a quick find, in a nice park to enjoy our ride for the day. Grabbed the clue needed.
Thanks for placing this cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy finding it.

Really enjoyed this trail and appreciate all the effort the CO has put into hiding interesting and creative containers. All the coords were pretty much spot on which helped in this bush setting.
All attempted were found and logs signed with the exception of one DNF logged separately. Unsurprisingly some of the logs were damp but still able to be signed. TFTC and the series Youban

Off to the south coast of NSW for a week.
Doing a few of these with the gkids. Found all but one of those that we did. Met other Geocachers also doing the walk. Nice.

Back for the second day - walking the rest of the Bengello walk with the geopooch and finishing off the rest of the caches. Lovely walk amongst the bush and back along the beach again. TFTC
I decided I needed another solo geocaching holiday to detox before uni so I thought the Bengello caches (the Bengello Walk and all the other nearby series') were a great excuse for holidaying at Broulee! Bengello is a stunning area, with a great mix of lovely vegetation and awesome ocean views. The weather was hot today but super blue and lovely, and (for the most part) pretty shady! Started walking at 7am (I didn't get a good sleep) from my accommodation and got back at 3:30pm, with 55 caches to boot. Great to spend Valentine's Day spending time around my true love, geocaching!
The caches in the Bengello Walk series were all found within a couple of minutes each, some instantaneously but some after a bit longer (but that's all about luck, I reckon finding speed would be variable for many people). Unfortunately a vast majority of the logs are quite wet, some unusable, so maintenance is required. I noticed that caches with clues for the bonus tended to be more wet than caches without the bonus (if you've found you the series you'll understand this difference). Speaking of clues, I forgot to look for clues in the first seven caches so before I go back to Canberra in a couple of days I'll need to revisit the area to grab the numbers and the bonus, plus attempt two DNFs within very close walking distance. A lovely series with some funky containers. TFTC Youban!

Catching up on logging some drafts I’d saved from our February road trip! We loved all of the caches and appreciated every one! Cheers!
Dead tree helped a lot!
