Logs for Rubystone2 

Tftc and AdLabHeaded out on an adventure or two today. I enjoyed exploring this area and quickly worked out gz. Here, I soon had the cache in hand and signed. 

Tftc and AdLabHeaded out on an adventure or two today. First of all, I finished the last part of Tweed Coast AdLab as the area was closed off last visit. Quickly worked out the bonus location and headed off to find it. An easy find. The log was damp and it wasn't as easy to sign. 

Tftc Headed out on an adventure or two today. Stopped off for this cache. Luckily it was a quick find because it decided that it was going to rain. Cache is no longer on the wire but is safely camouflaged at gz 

TftcHeaded out on an adventure or two today.I had worked these coords out at home during the week. As i was wandering to gz, I thought i was going to be muggled by two young boys heading in the same direction. Thankfully, they were only interested in trying to catch a fish. While I was busy taking photos and catching a cache. I soon had cache in hand and signed. I hope the boys had as much luck catching a fish 

Checked this on my way passed. Cache is still in position. 

TftcIve been wanting to do this track for a couple of years now. I finally done it. My nephew and I started from Little Bay last year but I gave up as I had not long had surgery. This way in was my easier. And the views were worth it (from both ways). The cache itself was a quick find after sitting and enjoying the scenery. While up at grabbing the cache, I also completed another two stages of the adventure lab - A Unique History. I'll finish off the last section next time I'm in The Rocks. 

TftcAfter the recent weather, I suppose it wasn't the best day to do some caches along this trail. Well, that was a bit of a challenge to get to gz. Of course, I chose the long way. As previous teacher mentioned, the lantana was quite overgrown here. I had apair of secateurs in the car from getting cuttings from a friend which came in handy. I hacked my way through with secateurs and a hiking stick. Quickly found the container. It was full of water and unsignable. I've attached a photo as proof. Making my way back to the geomobile was quicker but still needed to hack through the overgrowth. 

TftcAfter the recent weather, I suppose it wasn't the best day to do some caches along this trail. Another track I opted to walk as this one was a bit overgrown. Gps was a bit jumpy at this one, so took me longer to find but got it in the end. Log was wet but signable. 

TftcAfter the recent weather, I suppose it wasn't the best day to do some caches along this trail.This one was a bit more of a challenge accessing the cache even though I could park within a couple of metre from GZ. I managed to get the cache without getting too dirty or slipping over. 

TftcAfter the recent weather, I suppose it wasn't the best day to do some caches along this trail. I parked at the bottom of the slope and walked up to this one. At first I thought I could have driven up here. That was until i got to the bend and part of the track was muddy. It would have been my luck to get bogged.I soon had the cache sign and made my way back to the geomobile 

TftcAfter the recent weather, I suppose it wasn't the best day to do some caches along this trail. #7 was the furthest today. I parked near jacks road and walked along to this cache. And down to the creek with was so serene with frogs and birds singing and playing. At gz I quickly found the cache. While I was signing the log the leeches quickly found me. 

I saw this cache and though Challenge accepted. My (1.5/1.5) gave me a starting point of 420 dated 25th Oct.So since that date I aimed for (1.5/2), (2/1.5) and (2/2) as these were the highest on my grid. Today I reach 420 +1(1.5/2) 215(2/1.5) 106(2/2) 100Now to figure out gz and find the cache 

TftcFound just before the rain came down this afternoon. 

Haha got you this time you sticky little sucker. I visited here when I firsted started caching and didn't find. Now thinking like a cacher this one was a fairly easy find. Tftc Groovydoo 

TftcOut looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. Feel like I'm on a roll. 4/4 found fairly fast. Well, this one took a little longer, and I was about to give up when i realised one was a bit different than the rest. 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. The frog was just sitting on the log. So after signing, I placed it in a groove and added a bit of camouflage 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. The road was easy to get over to the cache, I quickly signed it, and then the traffic seemed to come from nowhere and all directions before i could get back across 

Wow, what a grand entrance and such a beautiful location. I may have overlooked the cache because I was admiring the area. My gps was saying i was 50cm from gz, but no luck for me today 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. A nice quick find. Im loving this trail but not the snake that was on the road. 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. After seeing the snake earlier, I was a bit hesitant on going through the long grass to get this one. I walked along the road until i was as closeto gz as I could get before heading through the grass. Im not sure which was faster - signing the log or getting back to the road. 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. Yet another quick grab for the day. The lid has broken on the container, but log is dry. 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. One last cache for the day before heading home. A nice easy one to finish off withThank you, Magpiecottage, for the scenic detour and the fun caches along the way 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. I was about to give up on this one and log a 3rd DNF when I spied the camo part of the cache. I did a quick search but couldn't find the log. I've messaged the owner in regards to logging online for now. 

Yet another DNF for me this afternoon. I've messaged the CO in regards to it either me who couldn't see or if the fenceline may have been replaced. (Probably me) 

TftcOut looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. This one was a higher level, but I wanted to get it. When I first looked, I was recovering from a broken ankle, so I was unable to reach it. Today it felt like an easy find. Fav point for both the location and container. 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. There's always something about wandering through an old cemetery. Today, the butterflies were in abundance.I parked up at the gate towards the western end of the cemetery and was soon at the tree guarding this cache. 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. Loved this one. I should have dropped a couple of TBs in, but the rooms were full. Maybe next time. Another fav point from me 

My caching sensors have finally come across a DNF. No luck here today but I will be back for another attempt. 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. My cache sensors are still working strong. This one, I was prepared to search further behind the tree and saw that it was near my feet. Quickly signed and onto the next.

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. This is probably the quickest find so far today. I stopped within a couple of inches from the cache. 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. I had set my gps wrong and had to back track to this one. Funny thing was, as we passed it, I said, "There's a cache in that stump." Well, yes, there was, and one of the ones that was on my list. Found and signed quickly. It was just laying there in the elements, so ai added a bit of camoflague over it. 

Tftc Out looking for D2/T1.5, D1.5/T2, or D2/T2. Another beautiful part of the road for a quick find. These caches Rock. 

TftcAvenged another I couldn't find as a newbie. This one was staring me in the face today. 

Second DNF, as we were heading into Armidale to refuel both the geomobile and ourselves before heading around the Gara loop and home. 

TftcOut looking for D2 with T1.5/2Or D1.5/2 with T2. This one fitted the search and also one I had looked for as a newbie. 3 out 3 found easily so far.As previously mentioned container has a hole in it. 

TftcBetween appointments, I went for a roundabout drive and collected a few caches. There's something extra about finding a mystery cache. All in good shape.

TftcBetween appointments, I went for a roundabout drive and collected a few caches. There's something extra about finding a mystery cache. All in good shape. I like the container 

TftcBetween appointments, I went for a roundabout drive and collected a few caches. Ah, I finally found you, Peter. I hadn't gone into the bushes far enough last time. Having no muggles around also made it easier. 

TftcIt was only slightly cooling in the Tamban, then it was in Kempsey. But i was wanting to grab a couple of D1.5 -2/T1.5-2, so we done a slight detour on the way home. Another quick find. I almost got back to the car and realised I left my hiking stock near the cche, so back I stomped again 

TftcIt was only slightly cooling in the Tamban, then it was in Kempsey. But i was wanting to grab a couple of D1.5 -2/T1.5-2, so we did a slight detour on the way home. Turning this one into yellow smilie. Last time it turns out i didn't go in far enough to find this one that was safely tucked in its hidey spot. 

TftcIt was only slightly cooling in the Tamban, then it was in Kempsey. But I was wanting to grab a couple of D1.5 -2/T1.5-2, so we did a slight detour on the way home. A nice quick find. This one, we started heading north but had to reverse a few 100 metres as I didn't want to risk going through the water in the gully that was along the road. 

TftcIt was only slightly cooling in the Tamban, then it was in Kempsey. But i was wanting to grab a couple of D1.5 -2/T1.5-2, so we did a slight detour on the way home. Found quickly at gz once we got onto the right track without a mud puddle. Time to head home, too cool down. 

TftcIt was only slightly cooling in the Tamban, then it was in Kempsey. But i was wanting to grab a couple of D1.5 -2/T1.5-2, so we did a slight detour on the way home. A nice quick find as I kept my eye open for any critters that could be about. 

TftcJust a quick find for the day. 

TftcMaking our way back to Grafton I detoured here to make a quick find. Another road I have never turned down. 

TftcA nice location. I should have had my proper camera today. Not many birds were around, but there was a little wallaby watching from a distance. Cache was fairly quick to find but has a terrible swampy odour. Logsheet wet, but I was able to sign it as it RITR paper. 

Thanks to Gary for leading me to a really good park to be able to watch the Jacaranda Festival today. I couldn't get to gz as there were too many muggles about, but I will have a look next time im in Grafyon. 

TftcI should have planned my day better and done this one before Creepy Hollow. This marks my 1500 find
