Thanks for this cache on this impressive trail! Found on a lovely spring afternoon with Kazz444.

Out caching today with Goldberry17. Enjoying the drive in the countryside. TFTC

Apologies for the generic logs, but individuals would be unmanageable!Today was set aside to make a start on the Dog's Head Loop. The puzzles had been solved quite some time ago so we were looking forward to turning them and the other caches into smilies.It was a great day for caching, clear skies, temperatures in the high teens and little or no wind. We didn't take the COs advice and work in a clockwise direction, but that was because we were starting out from Branxton and will be moving on to Maitland later.It is a fabulously organized series to date. Reasonable places to pull over in most instances, great sized caches with excellent hints and obvious regular maintenance. Congratulations and well done!We had a couple of DNFs and an enjoyable if busy day. More to come!Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache kingfisher_au.**SKI Pair****

Wondering how long we'd be able to do so, we decided to take advantage of some nice (but cool) weather, and go for a drive in the country today, ending up with 25 finds including a pair of trigs. We chased the dogs from Elderslie to Glendon Brook today, they were all found exactly where they were supposed to be, haven't wandered, and in pretty good shape in general....
We struggled with some ordinary parking, but got there - traffic pretty light out here today.... TFTC!

Found today out on a trip to do some dogs head caches and some other assorted ones, had a really nice time out here doing some caches

TFTC

Now that i got internet i can start logging again. Found it even without internet

A quick find again, thankfully.
Thanks for the hide kingfisher_au.

Found with shaneo58's help, doing a fair number of the dogs head trail and some around the Branxton area.. It was a very warm day for a spring day, We also saw pprass and company stoping at some at the some time or closely following, nice verity of caches with some humorous hints.
Log signed and cache replaced as found.

**Thanks For The Cache** kingfisher_au.

This is the 27th cache of 59 for today.
Cache number 2789 at 11:50:00 AM on Thu 26Nov2020

Second stage of the dogs head trail and this time we are teamed up with PPrass. Having a great time being camped nearby. Had to do cut and paste posts but some individual posts where needed. Signed as CP

Thank you kingfisher_au we found your geocache at 12:16 p.m. on the 26 November 2020. This is #6237 for us.

Found at 12:12 PM in the company of coongoola.
As we were staying in Maitland with a bunch of cachng friends and coongoola wanted to do this series, we decided to join them for the second half that we hadn't done when we were here in October 2019.
Thanks kingfisher_au for the fun and adventure.

Driving up from HV to Forster with the wife and she graciously allowed me to collect around every 3rd or so cache as this was too much for her to be stopping and starting. Some were easier than other and in areas where stopping so tough at times. Made the find and SL. TFTC.

TFTC. My favourite number is 9. So 999 made me feel happy. I was a bit worried when it said bottom . A very nice view from here through the fork.

Attempting to complete this awesome trail over a few days for my 60th Birthday Week. Today I had the help of my geodaughter, we successfully completed the task. Such an awesome trail, can’t believe how much work has been put into having this available for us to do! I feel bad placing a cut and paste log, but after a fullish day of birthday caching, I can’t see me logging all of them in one night! Thanks Kingfisher!

TFTC

Well 2020 has been a relatively slow year on the caching front due to COVID-19. If it wasn't for that it would have been a trip to the USA and Geocaching's 20th year celebrations.

However the crew got back together and The Rats, Hoojar and I teamed up for a few days caching up around the Hunter area. First it was to finish off some of the older OZGM series caches then up into the Watagans for more. Most of Saturday was spent tackling the great Dogs Head Trail then on Sunday it was down into Newcastle city for some great caches.

This was another find on our trip.

TFTC!

COVID has really put a dampener on this year’s caching ability, but it hasn't stopped my enthusiasm to get out and find a cache whenever possible. So, it was with excitement that I was keen to catch up with Steeba and Hoojar for our first caching weekend of the year.

We targeted a number of powertrails in the Central Coast and Hunter region over our 3-day caching frenzy. The weekend threw up a bit of everything, including a plethora of finds, mountain bush bashing, coastal caching, weather that varied from beautiful to bizarre, sleeping under the stars, some close calls with the flora and fauna, lovely local hospitality and most of all, a great time away with my mates”.

Thanks to all the C.O’s for placing and maintaining their caches for us to find. Apologises for the generic log but with so many finds I couldn’t personalise every one of them.

After a chilly night and another early start we tackled our biggest day, the “Dog’s Head” trail north of Maitland saw us meandering through the picturesque countryside. It was here we found some cleverly crafted containers which added to a great day. By time nightfall we’d met up with Big Matt & MV for a lovely meal at the Paterson Hotel.
Thanks

With restrictions starting to ease in our Covid World, it was decided that 2020 caching really need to kick up a gear, and so a plan was set in motion for The Rats, Steeba and myself to head to the Newcastle and Hunter region. There were a few trails, power trails, and Lab Caches that would be hitting our radars, along with a milestone for The Rats. We headed off on Thursday evening and turned for jome on Sunday afternoon. A wonderful long weekend was had, and our cache finds topped 450 for the trip. All in all it was a great success.

The caches were excellent. Some indeed were amazing, and favourite points have been awarded. The company, as always, was faultless. The weather was varied. We had sun, rain, wind, colder, warm, more wind... A bit of everything! We managed to find a few nice spots to camp, and enjoyed the company of Big Matt and Marcus Vitruvius for dinner at a local establishment on Saturday evening.

Please forgive the boiler-plate log, I assure you it is no reflection on the caching experience of our few days away. Thank you to all cache owners for their hides.

Cheers

Generic log time... Came down from Port Macquarie this morning to attempt to complete the dog's head trail. Beautiful weather for a drive around the countryside, although some areas were a little soggy from recent rain. Spring has definitely sprung with lots of flowers and baby animals in the paddocks. You've made a great trail Kingfisher, with a good variety of cache containers and placement. Thanks

Nice quick find.
We are loving our journey around the Hunter Valley. Weather-wise, today is a repeat of yesterday with a stiff cold wind.

I joined a trip to Maitland with Aquilus1, dty73, Tankengine, Barb2e, Kitty Katch & Joolay. The weekends main game was to do the dogs head series, but along the way we did some old caches around Sydney and did as many Maitland caches as time allowed. The return journey was via some old caches and some challenges that may or may not be met one day.

Day 2 was the dogs head series and three other series around Kurri Kurri. The R&D caches and many other Maitland caches are absolutely fantastic containers showing great creativity with new tools.

Thanks for the cache kingfisher_au

A caching trip away with Kittykatch, Joolay, Aquilus1, Tankengine, Barb2e & Albida33 - the Capital Crunchers Gang!!

Ah the Dogs Head. This was one of our main aims for coming up. Most of the caches were found straightforward, some not so much. But all in all this was a good trail. Apologies for the generic log. Tftc Kingfisher_au!!!

Found with and signed the Capital Crunchers who are: dty73, Tankengine, Joolay, kittycatch, Albida33, Barb2e.

A four day caching trip up around Maitland collecting a number of caches of interest to suit everyone along for the fun. A lovely area, very scenic, green and lots of historic locations. Also some great caching to be done while in the area as well as on our way there and home.

The 'Dogs head' was a main focus of the trip, and took us the the best part of the day along with a few smaller trails and a few as we passed but a lovely scenic area to spend the day in. Most caches were straight forward finds, a few took a little search and others are great 3D printed designs or LARGE! Great trail through a great area, thanks for the cache kingfisher_au.

Chooo ooo - FOUND - on our Maitland/Dogs Head invasion! Signed - Capital Crunchers! (Joolay, KittyKatch, dty73, Aquilus1, Albida and barb2e).

Today I did a nice cacher tour along the Dogs Head Trail. The weather was nice and warm. I always parked in safe places and preferred to walk some steps. On the way I was always happy about the beautiful nature and the many boxes.

Thank you
Team sissifalke

We camped at the rest area in Branxton with wazza9 and Nana Nel and ventured on this trail together. We did the majority on day one which proved to be a good move as the rain came in for day 2. We enjoyed the hides and information about the various dogs, great job on putting out this trail. Thanks to kingfisher_au for hiding this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

TFTC,
Day 2 caching around the area with Liz and Bruce & Nana nel.
It must have rained all night and after a good nights sleep we are out to finish the Dogs Head Trail today together with plenty of other caches along the way across several towns.
Great to have such a variety of caches.
It's raining lightly and we are getting wet but we are still having fun and barking our way to the end by lunch.
Thanks to Kingfisher_au for providing a trail where we could work together with other cachers and enjoy each others company while building numbers and learning about so many different breeds.

Day 2 on the Dogs Head trail, with Liz and Bruce & Wazza9, changed drivers and runners in light rain, but we are determined to complete the trail. Only 79 finds today. Stamped log and replaced, thanks to kingfisher_au for the hard work he put into this great series.

Muggles driving by are very friendly, wanting to know if we are OK. Do you tell them you are using satellite technology to find tupperware hidden in the bush.??

We learnt about the 'Dogs Head Trail' as one of our TB's was placed into a cache on the trail. After seeing it we just had to come and do it. Who knew that there is so many types of dog. The senery in the area is fabulous, we saw loads of cows and horses but not much else in the way of animal life. Now for the caches
Roads - Very busy
Farmers - friendly and interested
Co-ordinates - Really great
Hints - we used these and had a laugh at the humour that was used, it certainly kept you interested
Hides - Easy - loved the camo tape it really helps the cache containers to blend in and if the CO had wanted to these could have been hidden a lot harder
Parking - Great, OK, not so great and down right horrible. In saying this the cache owner does tell you when you need to be aware in the hints. It just means that you will get a little more exercise walking to the cache from a safe parking spot. The CO is looking after you and making certain you get your exercise. You may need to climb, either up or down, to reach the cache. You may choose to climb down when you do not need to this is, it is all up to the indiviual.
A huge thanks to the CO, what a massive job this would have been to find the places to hide the caches, sort co-ords, write the cache discriptions and now to maintain them. You asked us to leave a favorite for the dog that we feel is our most liked type of dog, for me it is the german shepherd and for hubby it is the bull mastiff.

Another great day out on the Dogs Head Trail to collect a few more caches. A lot more traffic today than the day before and I collected a few extra on the side as well. Only had a few hours to spare but was good to be heading towards the nose. Tftc

Got up early to do this series today. Needed to eventually download for offline use which is why we have now done these bulk logs. We ran out of reception pretty quick and hadn't thought of it. This is a lovely and easy series. Love it, thank you so much! Recommended to all geocachers new or experienced.

Number 93 and what is even more impressive no DNF’s. That is a tribute to kingfisher_au that they are all in good condition. A fav point for that.

Aaaagh!! We had planned a very long list of caches to find today with ilook4geo, but for about two hours after we started the run, the GPS would simply not play nicely with the satellites. It was very frustrating and we had to get there using other methods.
Eventually it came good and performed properly and the caching started in earnest. Each cache had its log signed with initials GP2 and ilg and all was put back into place.
Favourite point given as we used to have a keeshond called Kees (of course).
Thanks go to kingfisher_au for creating this series of caches and the fun puzzles included.

Continued with the Dogs Head Trail today with goingplaces2. GPS misbehaved to start but was OK later. Found what we looked for and were glad to add so many caches to the total in one day. TFTC.

Dog’s Head has now become one of my new favourite trails!! So much creativity and diversity throughout. Thank you so much kingfisher_au for your time, energy and resources.

Tackled the trail (and some smaller surrounding ones) as part team Capital Crunchers (fitzy_1965, minniek, specimenX, Nibletricecakes, Joolay and Roostaman) on our Maitland long weekend adventure. So glad we made the trek it has been truly delightful! As an added bonus we all hit a milestone (mine being 3000) AND racked up the most number of finds we have ever found in a day!! 310! An all round epic adventure. Thanks so much everyone.

Headed to the Maitland area with fitzy_1965 & SpecimenX for an extra long weekend of caching.

Day 2 saw us joined by nibletricecakes, Joolay & even Roostaman (who happened to be staying in the same campground as us by chance). Dogs Head Trail was our main aim with others collected along the way.

All caches where found quickly and easily unless otherwise mentioned. Logs were either signed or stamped as Capital Crunchers, CC, Kapital Krunchers or KK.

**# 25924** Found on the way back from our 2019 winter escape trip.
A cloudy Spring day for a drive around the Dogs Head trail with the Canberra crew.
We had a great big day and found all the caches and a few others as well.
Many muggles on the roads today and many good hides.

18,942. Found as part of the Capital Crunchers Team (fitzy_1965, minniek, specimenX, nibletricecakes, Joolay and Roostaman) during the Canberra Invasion of Maitland region over the long weekend.

This was the main event. We were really looking forward to doing the Dog's Head Trail as well as the smaller trails in the region. We had an absolutely epic day of caching, with all of us setting milestone and achieving a new finds in a day record (310). All of the caches were found in good condition, signed and returned into its hidey hole. The 3D printed containers were a real highlight as well - fantastic effort by the CO.

Thanks kingfisher_au !! We really appreciate you putting out and maintaining these caches.

This is an awesome trail. The effort in setting this up is huge and greatly appreciated.

Up in Maitland with Nibletricecakes, Fitzy1965, MinnieK and Specimen X, to do the Dogs Head. We will go by the name of Capital Crunchers. We have also met up with Roosterman who is joining us today. Really looking forward to the challenge and getting the geoart today. Unless otherwise stated cache in good condition. Thanks for the huge effort in placing these.

Our logs are signed CC, KK, Capital Crunchers or stamped depending who wrote them.
Apologies for the generic logs.

Found with fitzy_1965, minniek, Nibletricecakes, Joolay as well as Roostaman as part of the Canberra Invasion of Maitland and surrounds over an extra long weekend

Time for us to hit the Dogs Head Trail! An enjoyable drive around the trail collecting the caches and marveling at the 3D printed creations which were easy finds resulted in an epic day of caching. Signed or stamped as Capital Crunchers, CC or KK (for some early finds) to save log space.

Thanks for the hide, kingfisher_au

G'Day My Fellow Geocacher,

How are you my fellow Geocacher? I’m DARKSIDEDAN aka Daniel from Canberra, Australia and I have had the pleasure of finding your Geocache during my travels as a Geocacher. I signed the logbook in your cache either Darksidedan or Darkside or DSD. This was one epic series and I thank you for placing as well as maintaining this epic trail. I have added your cache to my growing list of “Found It” logs. Please forgive the Generic Logs for this Series.

I HAVE GIVEN TWO FAV POINTS FOR THIS SERIES ONE FOR THE FIRST AND ONE FOR THE LAST CACHE. WHAT AN EPIC SERIES.

I love discovering Geocaches, Trackable items and collecting Pathtags. I hope that you enjoy Geocaching as much as I do. For me geocaching is a way of life and when I am not Geocaching, I am thinking of Geocaching.

Here is a little information about me. I have been geocaching since 2015. At the time of finding this cache I have over 6000 finds plus 350 hides. I am the creator of the “Duck Dip” Lab Cache that won 2nd Place for the Australian Capital Territory in the State Vs State - Battle of the Lab Caches at the OzGeoMuster - The Gong Mega 2019 in Wollongong, Australia. In 2019, I won the right to place a Virtual 2.0 Cache from Geocaching.com, but I have not placed it yet. I am just trying to find somewhere that is worthy of a Virtual Cache.

Now let’s talk Pathtags. Currently I have over 4600 Pathtags in my collection plus about 500 Etagz. I currently have two of my own Pathtags (45762 & 46950) with another one in the works.

I have included with my Found It log an Original and One of a Kind, Geocaching poem that I have written. I hope that everyone who reads it gets some enjoyment out of it.


Geocache Poem by DARKSIDEDAN

My endless search goes on and on
Looking for treasures of every kind
Always chasing just one more find
Putting past DNF’s out of my mind
I step out into the world outside,
Seeking what is hidden from me
What size, shape or form will it be?
Only time will tell, I can’t wait to see
Will I find my prize at the end?
I will search in the failing light and cold
Filling with despair having looked everywhere
Where is this thing that gives my life pleasure?
Looking all around from every angle
I read the logs and check the hint
I curse out loud as I walk in circles
Screaming the bloody thing it not there
As time flies by and I fail to see,
Never once stopping to realize
It always been there before my eyes
No need for sorrow, there’s the Geocache.

I am currently writing very detailed logs because of a challenge provided by Project-GC called "The Author". This Badge challenges geocaches to write logs with an average length of more than one hundred words per log. As of the 25th September 2019 my average Found It log is 165 words per log. I would like to get all my logs up to more than 200 words per log but I will have to wait and see how I go. Currently I am just trying to get my average up by finding and logging as many geocaches as I can. My apologies to anyone who finds my lengthy logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain the highest level with this challenge. After more than 6,000 geocaches (which includes all cache finds up and including this cache, I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task very soon. Progress has been better than anticipated.

What an awesome trail of excellent hides and wonderful cache containers / holders.
This was a major focus of our geocaching holiday of 3 weeks and we were certainly not disappointed.
Today did from #24 to #148
Caches found in excellent shape - only issues in this area were: #35 Gone with road works. #83 Container damaged.
I had only solved some of the puzzles so most of them were not able to be found by us.
Thank you for all your effort kingfisher_au

While up in NSW on holidays enjoying a fun Lighthouse Mega, we headed further North to catch up with family and try our luck with the Dog Series, one that we have had our eye on since publication.
The puzzles were solved without much fuss except for one and boy did that do our head in....lucky for the kind CO who put us out of our misery allowing for a 100% success rate today as we tackled them head on in the company of Tack123.
Thanks kingfisher_au for the awesome effort in putting this series together, we had a blast today/tonight.
Woof woof

Found with dad after he finished work. TFTC

The dog trail was achieved today with The_Tritonz working as a team we knocked over the entire series having a blast the whole way around. Lunching at Gresford, we refueled our bodies and continued on our way. We even done mini CITO’s near the caches as we signed the logs.
Thanks kingfisher_au for the Dog Head Series.

Quick park and grab. TFTC

Heading home to Brisbane from oz muster. Stopped here in Maitland and found this dog series. Could not resist and staying two days to finish this wonderful beloved dog trail

Doing the Dogs Head Trail with Di Morgan Grub Fred and myself AKA DIGS this weekend.Enjoying the series and the company. TFTC KF.

Singleton Day 2 staying at the Showgrounds
Today we have teamed up with Grub Fred & Shaneo58 we have signed the log as DIGS as a combination of our names & obviously it's what dogs like to do.
We did a small number in the afternoon leaving to do 100 the next day.
We enjoyed our drive around the farming land, surprised at how busy the country roads were.
The effort to place this trail & to provide information on so many different species of dogs is an enormance project. Some nice fantastic plastic containers noticed as well.
Thankyou for placing this cache kingfisher_au

Find No: 7742. Shaneo58, Mrs Grub Fred & I met up with Bill & DiMorgan at Singleton Showground to do the Dog's Head Trail, finished today and collected some other fun ones on the way, thanks for the caches and the series kingfisher_au!!

With a long weekend in Canberra, FurfacesLL #1 and myself decided it was time to get away and find a bit of warmth as the cold makes its way into Canberra. We decided to head up to Maitland as neither of us had been there before for Geocaching. We had our primary target set to complete the new Dog geo-art series, and we managed to do that within a single day, so we had plenty of time up our sleeves for other things. We enjoyed the series with the different containers and hide styles along the way. We decided to add a drive upto collect Frying Pan and also included another older cache on Mount Sugarloaf for the journey home.

Apologies for the generic logs

Thanks for the cache hide kingfisher_au and thanks FFLL#1 for another trip out and about for some quantity AND quality caching

After meeting the CO at a pre Mega event in Canberra at the Lakes in Gungahlin we decided to have a look at the dog trail that he talked about. So we set to work to solve all the puzzles in hopes of taking a trip to complete this series in the near future.
That day arrived a plan was hatched to spend a long weekend for Canberra up in Maitland collecting the dog trail and others around the area with Rapidlywild.

We headed out early (well early for us) and completed the trail in a day with no DNF's which was nice. Lovely country side to look at in this area and lots of various hides and sizes of caches.

Thanks for a great trail kingfisher_au you sure have spent a few hours putting this one together and thanks for the great weekend away and laughs Rapidlywild.

Sorry for the generic logs.

Thanks for the hint. TFTC

Having met the CO at the Clear Waters Mega Event and enjoyed a couple of great days out geocaching together we had been hoping we would have the time and opportunity to undertake this series of caches sometime over the last two weeks of our current visit to Australia. Three days ago we had started the Dogs Head Trail and completed up to number 50, but had run out of daylight hours to be able to continue, then two mornings ago we had returned to where we had left off to continue with another short section of the trail before diverting off to head up north to find the Frying Pan cache. Yesterday afternoon we were back on the trail again but once again ran out of daylight hours, and so now today we had a full day on the series and was able to complete it. What a great series, with an amazing amount of information on the A to Z of dog breeds on the various cache pages - most of them dog breeds we didn't even know existed! We were impressed by the many different types of hide, the clever 3D printed cache holders and the large variety of containers, all of them nicely camouflaged to match their locations. The clues were fun to read and we liked the themed dog rubbers found in many of the caches. Many thanks to the CO for the incredible amount of time, effort and cost involved in laying the extensive trail and for the clever use of the roads to create the geo-art. This one was a nice quick find once at Ground Zero next to the dog poster attached to the tree! We signed the log book and then replaced as found. Thanks so much for the cache and greetings from Zimbabwe

Team Orrsome decided to head out and round up a few more dogs after visting the Tocal Field Days. Decided to try and round up the few we missed in the moiddel and ac ouple m ore in the middle. Mrs Orrsome took the wheel again as i bounded in and out of the car. Everything was in good order on this great piece of art. This was the 25 cache found today at 3:56:00 PM. TFTC
