Placed by Team Casho, adopted by fluffyfish and then by myself, it is time to let this one go.

Searched and searched for this one, found a dead lizard and a pretty big live blue toungue, but no cache. It could be gone.
 
30-Sep-13
After about 30min. of searching, I had to admit defeat for this one. The caching eyes were not working here today but the view was well worth the effort. TFTC.

It was hard

Home after a week in Coffs Harbour and trying to get at least two a day. Only one today and what a spot will have to bring geowife back with camera to this one. Cache is in good nick but there's no pen or pencil and I did not have a spare. That's twice this week and I still haven't re-stocked. Sorry. TFTC
 
25-Aug-13
Beautiful spot! First cache of the day on our trip down from Sydney. Found with geohub and 2 x geokids. SL, swapped some balls for a car and a handful of water balloons and grabbed the 2 TB's that were in the cache. TFTC Smile

Sorry for the late log. Found with my Dad Foinavon in August.

Well this was a pleasant change. A cache in the Wollongong area that's not a micro. I could actually leave some of my tbs in here. Wink Seriously a lovely location. I have always liked Hill 60 it was a great view today,

So Sandy! Almost Gave Up! great find!
 
25-Jul-13
great cache! was just visiting and thought id check it out!
 
25-Jul-13
Following the clue, I approached GZ. At 10 metres from GZ I stumbled upon two muggles engaging in very inappropriate behaviour for a public area. Turned around and made a quick getaway. Thankfully geo kids were not with me as that would of been difficult to explain. This happened at 3pm.
 
20-Jul-13
Quick find for GeoSon K. Beautiful views. TFTC.
 
13-Apr-13
Great views from up here! We'd been here before caching several years ago but pretty sure it wasn't for this one and I remember we either couldn't find it or couldn't search due to muggles? Anyway, this cache was an easy find and in a good spot away from muggles.
Thanks,
The Hancock Clan

Great spot up here. Never really taken the time to wander around.

TFTC SL TNLN. No trackable coin though. Sad
 
13-Mar-13
Have managed to find a cache either on the way to work or on the way home for the last 5 days to fill in more calendar days.
Parked nearby & made the short walk to GZ, soon had the CIH as cache was rather exposed, after completing caching duties I rehid it & covered it with a bit of local camo so that it`s not so obvious to muggles.'What a fantastic view from here, have loved coming to Port Kembla the last few days to grab a cache, will no doubt be back as there`s still a few more in the area that I haven`t found.
TNLN,SL TFTC.

Abit windy is an understatement. Good size cache with full size notepad. Thanks.

An instant find, not really hidden at all, tried to hide it a bit better with some rubbish.

Great views

Cheers

Geo Wife and I attended the "7th Annual Illawarra Get-together & 100" on a slightly overcast morning however the day developed into a most pleasant caching adventure.

This was a quick find, cache easily spotted. Signed the log and replaced as best I could.

By this time the day was fantastic and the views even better.

Paulyman and I weren't here at sunrise, but the view was spectacular none-the-less, and I was able to capture some nice panoramic shots. TFTC.

While waiting to go to the movies to see the hobbit we had some time to kill so we decided to cashe! Agent orang3, purple muffin and myself (black cobra) found this cashe me doing the actual finding of it.
 
27-Dec-12
Made things hard for ourselves by parking in the parking bay on the right, instead of the one on the left. Meant we went looking for the cache from a path down the hill slightly and had to bush wack our way through the shrubs down some unpleasant walking tracks to get to this cache. Thrilled when we finally got there and thrilled to find a travel bug to take back to Canada with us. Took the short way back to the car park, which was much easier!
 
27-Dec-12
What a fantastic spot, lived the chimney stack on the way up and the views were fantastic. Easy find at GZ after going too far. TFTC

13-Oct-12
Found, tftc, nice view
 
04-Oct-12
Checked out the look out first, got chatting to some old bloke, or more to the point he got chatting to me. Sure has some stories. Could have kept going I'm sure, but I had a cache to find (and all the stories were about himself). Headed down the sandy stairs but as I was to make the find I realised I was being followed. So waited, then did what I had to do. Signed and returned. TFTC. Great location.

My one and only cache find for the day after a string of DNF. The obvious spot was seen as I got to GZ and sure enough there was the prize.
Signed log and returned it to its place.
Thanks for the cache and the nice view.

My 6th find today, and a perfect afternoon to enjoy the view.

The cache log shows that it has recently been replaced by Wandering Stars (doesn't seem to be logged yet?) as the original cache was discovered scattered over the wider area.

TFTC and the history, Hoojar, FluffyFish and Team Casho, and to Wandering Stars for the replacement.
 
22-Feb-12
Found cache all over the place. There was no log so I replaced it plus a few other essentials. A very interesting location that I would probably not have visited except "I was on a search".

TFTC
Sorry for the delay in recording the experience.
 
11-Feb-12
On a frog hunt towards the Blue Mountains.
A slow trip, laden with frogs destined for Blackheath, hunting further frogs, and expecting to find frogs at Blackheath as well.

Found with Black Bunny.
Not exactly sunrise, as it was cold wet wet, but lovely just the same.

Thanks for the cache, Hoojar!
 
11-Feb-12
Out for a run down the coast with Just a cacher and decided to grab a few caches while in the area. A quick find out of muggles eyes while watching the antics of the jet skiers below.

This was a quick find after we resorted to the clue ( thanks to the rain which we didn't want to stand about in).
What a fantastic location - we ended up eating our lunch in the car watching pelicans float about in the thermal currents.

Dropped off 100 Find GC which we intended to drop off in the UK recently, however didn't find a cache that it would fit in.

TFTC! SL. TN.

Quick find with MartineBean trackable missing

Fantastic location and outlook. done with SolDeLune, Fitzy_1965 and McPhan on a weekend adventure through the area.

Thanks Hoojar, nice one.
 
03-Dec-11
Took a few minutes to find....probably because we were looking out over the water and not looking for what we should have been. Zsa Zsa made the find and we were soon on our way.


Thanks again Hoojar.......
 
03-Dec-11
5049. [font=Century Gothic][green]We wandered around for a bit and then Zsazsa7 ended up finding the cache where the hint said it would be. And isn't it always the way? All our GPii ended up pointing fairly close to GZ after the find was made.

After attempting an access route more suited to a 4 ½ star terrain rating, finally realised one digit had not been updated in my gps since co-ords changed over a year ago. That will teach me to check old entries as what a difference 50m makes! With the sun beating down and thick scrub scratching two day old sunburn, I was feeling quite ill by the time we emerged back into civilization and even more frustrated with myself for all the wasted effort when cache was found quickly in a simpler spot we had literally walked over soon after parking.

Almost a year and a half since my first DNF, and still a DNF today!

We are spending Easter with family in Dapto, so we headed out to do some caching at Port Kembla. We enjoyed the views from here before conducting a search. The co-ordinates were a bit out, but thanks to the clue we found the cache quickly. We dropped off the What Would Signal Do? GC and signed the log. TFTC
 
02-Apr-11
The third cache along this bit of coast today, each as beautiful as the other.
nice little hide Smile
sat and watched the ocean for a little while as i logged the find.

19-Mar-11
As it so turns out, I chose the worst possible day for geocaching. First time in months it's rained like this, apparently. Just as I finally arrived to the GZ, it started to bucket down. My task was made even more difficult without the aid of a GPS, I had to solely rely on my memory of the cache's location on google maps and the hint. Unfortunately, nature won this time. 20 minutes and a broken umbrella later, I made my way back to the car, soaking wet and without my prize. Sad I will definitely try again next time I'm in town. TFTH, Fluffyfish.
Gem of GemJay.

One of my favorite spots in the area. Love to sit and enjoy the views. Quick find. SL TFTC

Had to keep an eye out for muggles both on foot and in the air.
