Nice find. Tftc

Now blue and white thanks

Just like yesterday our caching day started off with a DNF. We had somehow missed the rain last night but it didnt miss us as we crawled in amongst the bushes. We werent sure how much rain there was because nearly every log today was wet in some form. We were still able to get our name on most of them. Motto for life: dont push the pen too hard on wet logs. tftc

While camping at Emerald Beach for a few days with my geodog Scruffy , We had to get out and look for a few caches ...Putting a FAV point on this one for the whole run.Very enjoyable and many thanks to all those involved.All Good .. TFTC ..

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

With a long weekend in front of me and a challenge cache in Brisbane on the radar it seemed a perfect opportunity to good to miss to not head south and chase the caches i need to successfully claim the cache.After spending the night in Coffs Harbour woke early and started the hunt for local caches with a view of working my way back towards Brisbane.I found a safe place to park the car and made my way to ground zero where the cache was quickly located. The log was removed and signed and replaced the cache safely in its hiding place.A big thanks to the cache owner for making this cache available to be found.Cheers

We are nearly at the finish of this section of the WhoopiBucca caches. Weve loved doing these caches. The drive, the scenery, the birds, and surprisingly after all the rain, the road is in good condition. We found all the caches we looked for which was fabulous. Thank you Earthly65 for placing this series. Cheers and happy caching!

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

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

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 container was found after a short search. Great to see a decent size container in the wild.

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

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, outer container full of water, log dry inside inner though…

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….
Lid cracked, inner container keeping log dry….Thanks for hiding!

Just time to find one today and it was this one. TFTC

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.

TfTC first one for the day

An unexpected trip to northern NSW allowed me time to grab a few caches along the way. Opted to have a day dedicated just for caching on my way home so I took to the P/T’s around Coffs. Thanks to the CO’s for your hides.

Thank you, earthly65, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Thanks for the cache

Just knocking a couple of this caches off my list while I have a couple minutes! TFTC

Thanks for cache, it’s a shame though that some grub has discarded their used vape into it, it’s not considered a swapable, and bin’s are readily available everywhere

The Ren and Stumpy show!!
Ps. Congratulations to the pig that put the vape in the cache…..disgusting and disappointing
TFTC

Great for the kidlet.

Log too wet to sign.

Found it, log wet

Got it

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.

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.
Thanks for the cache earthly65

Our first geocaching find! How fun

Cool find

Thank you for the chach. Found on geo weekend. Find 2790

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.
Thanks, Robmc.

Cache wet tried to dry it

Very cool

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.

Road smoother now. Scenic route. Rain has dampened the cache but all good. Tftc

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.

Nice cash very easy find .2 mins to find

Found 22/11/2020 with JessYoung96.

Gotcha - Found easy enough. Tftc

Found at 1:48 PM GAFF1.
Set up camp at the free camp in the nearby Lower Bucca Forest and then headed out to do this series in reverse as the last one was the closest to us. We didn't have many issues with parking and we were able to go around in safety - but it was very dry and the dust just flew all over the place. We had to wait at least 20 seconds to let the dust pass us by before getting out of the car as we had just paid to get the car detailed after an extreme caching experience in the Northern Rivers and didn't want to spoil the effect too soon
Cache was found in a good logical spot.
Thanks earthly65.

TFTC! We split the trail over two days, and what an adventure we’ve had! Thanks for helping us explore the local area!! WE FOUND IT!!

Woot all done! TFTC

In the area today collecting some smileys. This was one of them. WoopiBucca trail. Very nice

Thank you earthly65 for the woopiBucca trail. mystery sleuth and I had a lot of fun.

The last of this series for our group today, looking at some of those roads that wander off this one I wonder how long till we return to find another lot of new caches. TFTC

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

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.

A FP for the series - the drive through the forest was great.

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.
Picked up the TB from here.
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.

FTF honours to GrubFred!
