Becoming hard to maintain due to overgrown grass and wildlife nearby.

May have been washed away with all the local flooding

Couldn’t find anything

Very overgrown, couldn’t see anything that looks like a geocache.

No luck

Found it THIS time. No blood involved! Happy Birthday to ME!

Signal bounces here a bit, but nice placement of the cache.

Compass kept leading me away
from GZ. Then I drew blood.... so I gave up.

I went with Fitzy_1965 for a long weekend drive up the east coast to Port Macquarie caching along the way and visiting several new towns and villages. A highlight was a get together with Pprass & Kat after a few mega 4wd climbs in the afternoon. Day 3 took us back into the hills west of the coast from Pt Macquarie. One too many, but it was fun. A little caching around the outskirts of Pt Macquarie before finishing the day in the Port caravan park. Very civilised.

Thanks for the cache AgentJ07

22,007. Found during an epic trip up to Port Macquarie and back with albida33 over a 4 day weekend. Often signed as F65 A33. After heading up to Taree from Goulburn on Friday, we cached up to and reached Port Macquarie yesterday.

Day 3 of our North Coast Adventure, and after slumming it in a Hotel last night (the local Showgrounds and Caravan Parks were not taking anyone who was not self contained. We were even asked if we had bathrooms after I said we were in Swags?????) we were up early for another days caching fun around the Port Macquarie and Wauchope region. We were especially keen to do the Forest Road series today, plus and Challenge Caches which we might be able to get. This was the next find of the day. Quick find at GZ. Signed the log, replaced the cache as found, then we headed off to the next one.

Thanks AgentJ07 !!

Another great find. Thanks for hiding this cache for our enjoyment AgentJ07

Another great find with my geo buddy Baby Birt

A quite part of the Old part, except for the waiting masses of Mozzies..a covering of the old Areogard.. the search began ,located signs and replaced (nice size) ..Thanks Agentj07

Great size cache. Thanks

Found tftc

A quick find thanks to good coords and hint. TNLN TFTC

We headed out for a drive this evening to do another run to charge the batteries in the car for the fridge. The trip to this area and return gave a reasonable run for the car and batteries so of course we had to find a couple of caches while out. This one took a couple of minutes to locate as the GPSr was pointing a short distance away initially. Glad to see a good size cache for a change.
Thanks for the hide Agentj07.

Found after a brief search at gz. Cache was found with excellent coords and in great condition.

Nice to see some of the older area being retained as rural land.
Reminds me of Castle Hill in Sydney where we lived before it exploded in population.

Thanks for placing the cache Agent. We visited our TBs to give them mileage.

Quick grab on our way to shopping. Took a little bit to find but got there in the end. TFTC.

This is certainly an older part of time. I remember when Thrumpster was a thriving concern out this way.
A good park to park the car & soon after a nice large container was located.
Thankyou for placing this cache AgentJ07

Nice one just off the road.

A nice easy find TFTC

Thanks for cache found with Squaries Squire

Nice quick and easy one (this time )

Found on a glorious winter's day caching in and around Port Macquarie. Thanks for bringing me back to the old part of PM. Dropped off TB

Found in the company of Key_Tat and Viper_101... we had to head out and find a cache today seeing as there was a souvenir up for grabs. We pulled up to GZ and after a bit of a search the generously sized cache was in hand. If there was swaps in the cache, someone hasn’t been playing nice... only 2 swaps in the container now. Thanks for placing the cache. TFTC.

Caching with Tatt2squared and Key_Tat... nice quick find before we had to go for our scout hike... and a souvenir ...TFTC.

Caching with Tatt2squared and Viper_101... a nice quick find before our scout hike and before Dad goes to work... Happy International Geocaching Day... TFTC.

Found it!

Found it

Found with Gum62

Found at 3:18 PM GAFF1.
We recall that Thrumster was named after Archibald Clunes Innes birth town in Scotland. This area has been left un-developed until recently where the population of PMQ is just expanding in leaps and bounds.
Good to see a good sized container being used - we appreciate that. Started to look around and then a very suspicious looking spot was spied and sure enough - there it was. Was tempted to grab the Aussie slang dictionary, but we didn't have anything of similar value to swap.
Thanks AgentJ07.

Saw this one from the road, out in the open. Have tried to hide a little more! Retrieved a trackable. Will return to place more trackables in the future as it’s close to home. TFTC

Great hide Jacob thanks!

Easy find, Thank you. Lid was off but now secured.

After a bit of a wander, geowife found this one in a few minutes. TFTC

Searched all over the place but my GPS was playing silly buggers, so hard to concentrate on one location. I’ll try again some other time.

Geocache has not been placed yet but will be later today.
