TFTC Wicked trail. (23)

A little detour on the way up to pick this one up. Thanks!

Cool container with some fun toys for kids. Added a Canadian coin for any collectors. TFTC

Un town for a conference , this helped to fill in a dot day. Quick find at dusk. TFTC

Checked this one tonight whilst on my exercise jaunt. Cache is all good.

Staying overnight at an Airbnb not very far away I took a wander up the road to capture a few caches before dinner.Descending the long-way down - purely for the numbers!A was starting to feel overdue for a refreshment about now, but still a way to go just yet.A stop here for a breather, a loop around the GZ to find a good approach to the cache.Hmmm, it's easier from that side!!Thanks 0B80B8#4745

Nice container. Removed lollies.
Please don't put food in geocaches.

Treasures for the kids! Thanks!

Our first geocaching adventure with our wee man in a backpack (10months) and our 4 year old and all the family present. We parked at the top headed down the Ross track down to the mine then up into Mackesy bush. Ohhhhh so many stairs, especially that track up to mackesy. But 4 year old managed all the walking so we are proud of her. Only 1 DNF today but it's a night cache so not going to log as DNF, and we managed to find one we have DNF twice yay..... thanks for all the hides. Divided up tracks to gain more finds and sent raptor to car. Tjay and 4 year old walking out to memorial drive. This was there 6th find

Out for an after work walk and decided to do the Mackesy Track. Eventually reached GZ and soon had the cache located. The track is in really good condition and makes for a great walk. TFTC

This was a slight diversion from the main track i was following, to pick up this cache.
I may or may not have dropped off one of our pet rocks here. If i did, I forgot to note it - probably just focusing on getting my breath back from the first lot of up hill
Thanks for putting this here

1797. 5:23 pm. It was a very busy and stressful week so I needed to get out and stretch the legs to add a bit of calm amongst the hectic and full-on moments. Quickly found thanks to a good hint. Found with eKitten, GRAkiWi and Li0npaw. TFT(needed refreshing)C.

Great hide and yes needed a refreshment after walking up to get this cache lol. TFGC

Great little walk on the new track. Needed a drink after the walk up. TFTC found with Yvettetb

After grabbing the first cache we carried on the track to this cache. The track has certainly improved. Cache located quickly. Signed and replaced. TFTC

STF. 2 TB. Probably a new abbreviation there but so be it.

Nice short walk to this one.Good to brush up on my native trees considering I am a Tanekahian myself, the street that is.

I saw this in my email this morning and with the other one I contemplated a quick trip up the hill before work. With a 7.30am start, it being only 4°C and the fact that I didn't have time for both of them sanity won out. I kept updating the cache page during my breaks and with no action even by me in my short 1/2 hour lunchbreak I figured it was worth a chance after work.

I was going up to my Mums and hoping to be there between 5 and 5.30pm. Well I figured it wouldn't add much time and I do love a first to find hunt.

This one wasn't too far from the last cache and I figured it was before both lots of stairs so I'd run along to this one too. It was in the first place I looked so that was easy. Opened it up and was again glad to see a blank log. Another {FTF} 4.27pm. Off up north now - luckily I arrived at 5.35pm so not bad. Thanks for the fun and a bit of exercise
