Had a look around. Hint and activity didn't seem to help us

It wasn't in a hole

Found with cullum68 on a day trip to this area. Thanks for the cache

Found with nissan65 on a caching trip to Coffs. Thankyou for your contribution to geo caching

We had begun some of these WhoopiBucca caches on another visit to the area. We thoroughly enjoyed the area, the drive and the cache hides so we decided to return and find some more. Again it was a great drive that we enjoyed very much. Many thanks Earthly65. This one was found, log signed and cache returned as found. Cheers and happy caching!

On the hunting trail with Liz and Bruce on a 2024 New Years adventure. A quick find here. Its a great day for caching. TFTC earthly65

Thanks earthly65 for arranging this cache which has enhanced our enjoyment of the area.

We are now heading north to avoid the coldest of the winter weather in Victoria. Headed of from Coffs towards Grafton picking some of this series, along the way.

Stopped off here where the sneaky hide was found, after a short search.

Thanks earthly65 for placing this cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy finding it.

What happened to the gate?

Just the goal posts left!

This morning we had some time on our hands to go out and do some mass caching! We decided to come up to the MMT and WoopiBucca trails to get some numbers up for the may challenge. Had a great day out here!

Quick find thanks to previous log.

Sorry for all the generic logs.

We hit the local powertrails today in search of a good bag of finds for the monthly challenge, hoping for a few favourites among them….

Found this metal bison on the ground. Hasn’t been found since 9/2022. Signed log and tucked back into fence hole (with ring hanging out).

14:54
We looked high, we looked low, we looked in, we looked out, but today there was no way we could work this one out!
Unfortunately, this 1.5/1.5 eluded us today.

Thanks for the hunt anyway earthly65.

Lots of quick park and grabs. Others I drove passed or we gave up looking as the compass was jumpy and the day was getting hot.

Found this one on the ground. Wasn't in a metal bison just a tube.
I placed it in a hole of the post I found it next too

Tftc
Quick find
Not in a metal container

Unfortunately I had no luck finding this one today. Maybe next time

Love this part of Coffs

Owner maintenance run on 24.8.22...fresh log in place...happy caching

Found it.

Log too wet to sign. TFTC a quick find along our journey.

Replaced this one with a blood tube as according to the clue there was only one place it could be.

It was another shorter rune today as we headed back out into the hills to complete the WoopiBucca trail and then onto Emerald Beach for the Ad Lab there and then a few further caches on the way home.
Great weather and another good day. We enjoyed the bush drive and then the sights along the coast were magnificent.

Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache earthly65.

Leider hier auch nicht fündig geworden, schade

Found on a day trying to get to the summit. After reaching the summit, I continued up the road as it had recently been graded and being in a low 2wd car I though I would complete the trail

Log extremely wet scribed something in log

TFTC

Log is too wet to sign. Love the hiding spot though!

Today we headed up north to complete the WoopiBucca trail, our first full day caching in a few months.
We managed to make 42 finds and 0 DNF's, the trail was a little washed out in some places but nothing we couldn't handle. Overall it was a great day out.
This was very nearly a DNF, after checking every hole 10 times over, we spotted it on the ground, the log is soaking wet and unfortunately we didn't have any spares, put the cache back where the hint suggested.
Thanks for the cache earthly65

Took us a while but we found it!!!

Thank you for the chach. Found on geo weekend. Find 2780

Dropped the camper into Woolgoolga to have some work done on it, and this series was just across the highway. How could I resist?
Spent the morning on this series then a couple of AdLabs in Coff's.
The GPSr did wander a bit, but when that happened the clues were always good.
A nice range of sizes and hides to keep the trail interesting.
A strange shaped bison, don't think I have seen one like this before.
Thanks, Robmc.

After caching yesterday in coffs, we saw these ones when heading home, so after reading the descriptions and looking at the D/T, we thought, these would be a nice start to the day, before we looked at Emerald Beach Adv Labs. However this was not to be the case, either we were having a bad day, or GPS in this area is crap, we struggled through the first 5 even with up to a 17mtr gz error, so I recalibrated the GPS, but was still having mixed success, it would be spot on for one, then out by 10 on others, not the best in this type of terrain.

unfortunately it was not an enjoyable day caching, it took far too long for the amount of caches done, that we were stuffed and unable to do Emerald Beach, but it is done now, traffic was light, but a few logging trucks (thankfully empty) speeding along the roads so take care if it is logging season.

Just catching up with logging about this fabulous trail I cached with IndigoBlue1 3/11/2020 thank you Earthly65

It was time to go for a forest drive with ilook4geo and this WoopiBucca series looked like a good run of caches to do. Most were easy enough to find with just a few taking a bit longer. It was an enjoyable day. All found logs had two more names added to them before being put back where they had been found. Thank you to earthly65 for placing this series of caches.

Had a fun caching day with goingplaces2 and found most of the ones we looked for, signed logs and replaced all as found. TFTC.

Gotcha - Found easy enough. Tftc

Found at 2:41 PM GAFF3.
We thought that this was a gonna as we found a piece of black zip tie at the base ot the RHS gate post. However we then moved over a bit and found a "free" bison tube nicely tucked away.
Thanks earthly65.

TFTC!

Quick find by the geo wife! TFTC

Caching with Wandering Me and Baby Birt today

Another geo for hubby

Well unfortunately that’s it for today just when I was getting in the swing of it,it seems back home there is a mystery challenge which requires me to find a cache every day for thirty days,so I better find them gradually.TFTC

Had time to finish the trail off this afternoon between nursing home visits. As usual most of them were a nice easy find just off the road. Started at the Woopi end and came out at Bucca. Thanks earthly65.

A bit trickier but got there. Tftc

Out geocaching with Leahry101. Enjoying the cache.

Found with the gorgeous Mystery Sleuth, logged as LH101

Nice quick find while caching with friends along this pretty country road, some views were exceptional when glimpsed through the tree line. TFTC

Our group DRJ (DiamonJs, Richond Lad and joojoo57) had these caches west of Woolgoolga on our list today. Completed the new series as well as some other cachers close by. Thanks to the COs for your time and effort in placing and maintaining these caches for our enjoyment to find. It is very much appreciated.

Out and about caching today caching near Woolgoolga and area west doing a trail of caches and other caches along country roads. To the CO's thank you for placing these caches for them to be found (sorry about the generic log ). Most were easy to find, however there were a couple that needed more time to locate. Log signed as DRJ which represents us 3 cachers - DiamonJs, Richmond Lad and joojoo57. Thoroughly enjoyed. TFTC

Hitting this trail today with a couple of hours in hand. Ready to go with this awesome drive. These caches were great. Loved the drive. Thank you.

The government has now allowed for us to move around NSW. We hooked up the caravan & headed north, our 1st stop being Coffs Harbour camping at the Rugby Club.
Today we met up with Coongoola to do the WoopiBucca trail, this was a great drive along some country roads, passing many magnificant trees along the way.
Amazing amount of work done to place this series, lots of very good hints provided making for mostly quick finds.
Thanks for placing this cache earthly65

We met up with the DiMorgan team at 8.30 in Woopi for the WoopiBucca Trail which was recently published. Grub Fred was also there to meet us and presented us with wonderful personalised badges to wear at event caches, Beautiful work from the Grub Fred team.

Mrs & Mrs Grub accompanied us for the first three caches to make sure that he had signed the logs and then DiMorgan team and ourselves got into the thick of it all. The trails through here were first class and would be easily handled by a normal car.

Nearly all the geocaches were in great condition and had excellent coords. We finished the trail by 11.00 and headed off to find a few old ones that had eluded us last time we were up here. Our bellies were sending messages about lunch time so Coongoola Pat and Di headed to the world famous fish & chip shop to ease the hunger pains. The fish & chip shop in the main street has sweet potato scallops which are mouth wateringly good. We ate lunch by the beach where we also found another cache about Shipwrecks, Bonus !

A great day in the backlands of Whoopi, thank you so much earthly65 for placing and maintaining this trail for our enoyment.

Find No: 8128. Visiting from Newcastle (finally allowed to travel) staying at Safety Beach, suddenly noticed a bunch of new caches so we took off in a hurry and got the lot, thanks for the cache earthly65!!

Apologies cache was AWOL and first few cachers missed out..many thanks Groovydoo for replacing cache to keep it in play..much appreciated!

A great trail of caches to not only avoid crowds enjoying freedom after lockdown but to get away from everyone. Found by MrG because I didn't pick the most convenient route. TFTC earthly65.

Caching with Bobbiesgirl
This was abeautiful day for caching
We traveled up to do this trail because it sounded like what we wanted , a nice day out with friends, not to hard and doable at a nice easy pace.
We were not disappointed. Alovely trail and a credit to Earthly65. And yes you guessed it cut and paste logs.

Found in the company of ozglory. With restrictions being eased this little trail was just the thing for a much needed caching fix. Beautiful winter's day. The copy and paste logs do not detract in any way from our enjoyment and appreciation of the trail.

had a free day today and found this trail had been placed so close to my parents house, been a while since I’d been geocaching so came out here to attempt it. Found 26/29 so not too bad, unfortunately missed a couple along the way. A great trail out here, all caches well hidden and well out together and a few different ones to keep it interesting. Thanks for these caches and the work that has gone into them.

We are sure it’s missing as fence looks new. Will send picture to CO. Took Nothing Left nothing Slgned Log with Blissbaby

Groovydoo decided to replace this one . I'm happy to claim a find as a result .

Oh no,another one of them,TFTC

Fpund an empty cable tie that didn't match the hint and nothing in places that did match the hint , which them didn't match the co ordinates. Oh well won't hurt to come back another day
