Trying to beat the storm as it rolls across Canberra - we definitely have a great view of it from up here!Thanks for another great cache.
Spent a few hours around the north east section of the Canberra Centenary Trail grabbing some of the newer caches. Up here on top of this hill 3 times this morning due to poor planning of cache order. TFTC.
Chooo ooo [Found] on a lovely spring day Coords about 10m out Have ridden this track very many times - but always nice to come back! A pity these old caches are being archived and replaced... Older caches are coming harder to come by! Found OK - now off to the next one!Thanks DARKSIDEDAN!
After caching the morning elsewhere we decided on a bit more exercise up this way. Good to be back again cycling with friends. Being time poor we decided to leave the climbs for another day as there will no doubt be other caches being re-issued out this way sometime soon. Beautiful day, beautiful ride, loved the location. A relatively quick find, see mountainsbeyond's log for the corrected coordinates.! TFTC DARKSIDEDAN.
After a morning of mostly car caching it was nice to get on the bikes and hit the trails. TFTC
After caching in some other areas of the city this morning, we took the eMTBs out for a ride along this familiar section of the CCT. These caches are generally in the same hide locations as the previous iterations which makes for quick finds amongst the stunning scenery. We met a few other (non-caching) riders and walkers today.**This cache:** I recall the old hide here was also a little off the posted co-ords. Today we recorded the location of this cache - under the obvious bush - as S35 08.499' E149 08.933'.Thanks, DSD!
Found itNot sure if it was me or my phone, or maybe the planets were aligned incorrectly for a few minutes, but the cache's coordinates seemed to be 10 to 12 metres out. The friendly hint meant that I still had a chance of finding the container.Great views from up here.I had parked my bike down at the gate. I was a little nervous about it being nicked, so I hurried back down to it. All good.TFTC!
Yabba Dabba Doo *FTF* with Wilma! 
Two new caches had come out on the northern border of the ACT, while I was picking up Wilma from the airport. I was letting them go at first, I had my FTF for the day. After a leisurely breakfast they were still there and as this is a very nice part of the world I asked my family if they wanted to join and Wilma said yes. 15 minutes later and we parked near this first cache to start, what we thought, would be a short walk. Hoppy was with us and it was very enjoyable. By the time we had reached the 2nd of the caches more came out so we extended our walk all the way to Oak Hill a 1.5h, 5.5km and 160m altitude gain walk to end up at Bonner. Very enjoyable, pretty, warm but not too hot out here today and we were stoked that 2 FTF turned into 6. I was up on this hill what feels like not that long ago, but probably close to two years now. Back then I regretted not having seen the requirements of the EC on One Tree hill and did not take the required picture. So while I was keen to get this last FTF for the the day, I also made sure to get the shot needed for the virtual cache. After this we turned around and went home leaving the last two FTFs for someone else as we had done enough and much more hiking than initially expected. Thank you DARKSIDEDAN for putting the cache out, maintaining it and contributing to this great hobby we have. Happy trails, Flintstone's
