Bibb Trail 12 - Walpole Cambridge, Tasmania, Australia
By JABs on 25-Jan-24. Waypoint GCAHWJH

So today I thought it was about time I wandered up and went for a walk and retrieve this series of caches. Although I didn't even try and get the last couple as there were muggles around. But overall was a nice walk albeit very noisy from the highway.

TFTC Having a lovely walk with the dogs

Thanks!

This one was uncovered and very obvious from the track so we added a bit of camo. TFTCCheers,The Hancock Clan

We are aware of the Bibbulmun Trail from our visits to Western Australia. We have visited many of the towns along the trail and have walked some very short sections. The scenery and heritage along the trail is superb. We can appreciate the attraction of the walking the Bibbulmun Trail and congratulate JABs on his achievement. So when the publication of Bibb Trail commenced, it was a major attraction for us. Circumstances dictated that today was our first opportunity to look for the first caches in this series.We stayed in Walpole for two nights, using it as a base for exploring neighbouring areas. It was a very interesting community with the forestry industry dominating the local culture.Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks JABs for this cache and the series so far - looking forward to continuation of the series.

I was going to shiploads to get some more two part epoxy glue and thought I should stop and grab another of these caches. So I walked the now common walk to the string of caches. Obviously this so not as long as you had walked on this track.TFTC

Today we went out for Birthday lunch at Frogmore Creek it was delightful and delicious. After that whilst the husband fended off his cold in the car I went for a brisk March to find several of the series by the freeway. Im not sure I walked off the lunch but I had a crack at it .Found out in the open tried to conceal better TFTC

TFTC!

Lovely cache, TFTC

Thank you

found by the youngest two of the team. l.w.f. cheers!

Easy to find

Found it again

TFTC! Gotcha

Today stainless steel rat and I decided to do the Bibb Trail. We parked on Grahams Road and walked all the way to Alliance Drive, turned around and walked all the way back again. The return journey took half the time, as we hoofed it back, having found ALL the caches on the outbound trip. As we approached each GZ, we used a combination of the hint, the compass, and geosense to get us to the prize. Some were quick finds, but some took a bit longer. We had a trail bike fly past us a couple of times, so be careful!An enjoyable three hours exercise but I was pretty hungry by the time we finished.I am looking forward to the rest of the series being published.Thanks JABs

Myself and Goose had talked about doing this trail for awhile now but wanted to wait till there was a few out so we could do a whole section, as it turned out that is exactly what we managed find more than we bargained for!Parking within 2m of number 1 on Grahams Rd was a good start, with us taking a leisurely walk to end of the track at Alliance Drive, this took us 1 hour 51 minutes, the return only took 54 minutes.Some hides we found the coords a bit out but with the hint and geosenses it wasn't a problem, the only other person we spotted on the trail was a brain-dead dirt biker who hooned passed a couple of times.Found on 13/04/2024 at 12:11:00 thanks to JABs for placing this cache for me to find.

Things have been quite chaotic recently with rushed interstate visits and a number of family gatherings to involve us. As it doesn't get any better over the next few weeks decided to take today's window of opportunity and gather the new set of caches along this trail A sunny and pleasant day fora walk. Began in an area well known to us but quickly headed onto a new trail which was enjoyable except for the heavy road-traffic noise.Quite a large container and well stocked.TFTC

Yet another day and cache behind me. Day 264. Thanks for placing.

Hurrah I've found all 12 - Thanks for the series.(Unfortunately I didn't know about the other 4)

We were out looking for some newly published caches in this series so decided to collect this cache along the way. Thanks for placing these caches for our enjoyment. TFTC

Had an airport run to do today, so made time to do this run of caches before the pick up. TFTC

I was notified of the new additions to this series a few weeks ago, so this afternoon we set out to find them. It was another enjoyable walk along the trail past all the caches we found last time, and to the new ones. All the caches were quick finds and in good condition. Im enjoying this series and eagerly awaiting the next instalment.Thanks for the cache JABs!

Hello JABs thank you for the cacheAnother easy find in this lovely series of caches.Found on Sunday, 25 February 2024 at 1617**TFTC**

Tftc! Good little cache run

Hi JABs, thanks for this series of caches, and congratulations on your Bibb. walk.A somewhat bigger cache here than the previous ones - and a quick find. Whilst I'm not into swaps, these caches are very well stocked.Today I parked between West Cape and Torbay, then walked straight to Albany, found that, then the others down to William Bay.Then I leap-frogged via the even caches to Walpole, then found the remaining odd caches back towards the car.Cheers, EPs.

Hi JABs, thanks for the cache.I felt like a stroll after work tonight, so piled the GeoGSP's in the car and headed off the find the latest instalment of this series of caches. All caches were found nice and quickly with good coordinates, and the caches are all in good condition.

Out along this track to find me 5 new hides and potentially some podium spots if i'm quick This the last one in the series, i had a brief search and spotted the cache and then sat myself down on a very convenient seat to sign the log of a nice sized and well stocked cache at 14:50 on Saturday 27 January 2024.(my 5th Silver in a row for the day )TFTC JABs and for adding to this cool series
