After the human waste we found at GZ and the last posts I think it's time this one was archived.
We found what we think were the remains of the cache - just the base. With all the rain and runoff lately it may pay to check this one out.
Found it very easily as it was out in the open in the tunnel. Not sure where gz was but have hidden in an obvious spot. Have stacked 3 rocks where i found cache but container lid smahed and needs immediate attention
My first ever Team Nano hide ~ I was disappointed it wasn't a nano LOL Had a look where it shouldn't have been then found it in the obvious place ~ Great walk through the Park this afternoon SL Thanks for the Cache from PG [^]
The waterfall is a bit of a non-event at the moment . The cache was found easily as the rock on top barely covered it and it was quite obvious, sitting there staring out at me. The lid has been cracked, presumably by the rocks on top, and won’t last in any wet weather. No swaps.
Wasn't quite sure where to park - but ended up finding a fairly good spot. A nice spot for a cache. Log was full - so left a few pages to start off another log TFTC
Actually found this during the last week but only just noticed that we had forgotten to log it.
We used to alway liked taking our previous geomutt for a stroll along here, so it was good to come back with the new geomutt and have a smiley for the effort as well.

took a while looking for this one. TFTC
needs a new log, sorry didn't have one with us.

Had taken Cal to a Birthday Party in Golden Grove and thought we'd grab a couple afterwards.
What a lovely pleasant area Had no idea where Cobblers creek went to, having only visited a cache in the creek down in Para Hills several years ago.
The carpark took a bit of finding as we initially were on the otherside of the creek, but I soon found my way into the Orange area - thankfully we didn't encounter any Orange People
Cal and I tried the obvious spot first, but decided it couldn't be there so expanded our search. Finally found GZ and the cache and sat on a nearby rock to log and look through.
Cal took a trinket and I left a couple of coins.

The GPSr put us at the wrong end of the bridge, we were within 37cms of the cache apparently, and that slowed down the success of the search for a few minutes. TFTC.
Found by Mary & David at 1705. Such a secret waterfall, even the water doesn't know about it today. We enjoyed the beautiful gums in the late sunlight and shadows. Our thanks to Team Nano.
This is a secret water fall particularly after the crazy rain and weather we have over the last few days. TFTC TNLS
Found on a lovely Monday afternoon. Had to wait for muggle local boys to vacate the area before making the find. Made a bug/coin swap. TFTC.
From a finding team of 4 adults and at least six kids Adrian Mc made the find. Awesome echo.
The birthday son made the find. With all the crowd, he was the champion. (pic) Clear skies. Tricky light for cameras.
Thought to do a quick walk to finish off the day and this one was secluded enough for us to linger long enough to make the find. TNLNSL TFTC
Found despite the GPS bouncing all over the place. Got the approach all wrong and ended up coming down a steep hill and having to jump the creek. TFTC.
We've been past here before (doing a rather long multi from memory).
Quickly located near the running water. Unfortunately, the falls were nearly dry.
Took Spiderman. Left bunny. SL.
Thanks Team Nano .
PS. A small notepad would be more practical for this size cache, rather than the sheet of paper currently being used.

A very nice area and some water flowing today. Fairly quick find.
This cache will need a maintenance visit as the lid is cracked and it needs a log book.
thanks Team Nano

Driven past it many times and not known it was here thanks for bringing me here
Headed out north with Honeysucker to start clearing the area above Grand Junction Road.
Even had some water flowing after a heavy rain storm. Took the TB. TFTC.

A relatively easy last find for the day. I can't say that this cache rates as my favorite find, I much rather bush caches, but when you are chasing numbers you take what you get.
I was surpirsed to find three travellers resting here.
Thanks Team Nano.

No waterfall today, but a quick find just around the corner from home. Cheers. MODU.
Nice container and interesting place. Driven past and never knew thanks for bringing me here. TFTCSL TNLN
Nice little find for first timer, got a muddy bum for my effort, note to self "don't hang onto dog lead when transversing rocky wet surface , ... cant believe i have been walking past this site for 2 years and never noticed anyone checking this place out
Found it nice and easy. I almost got sprung by the muggles. Very nice park.
Thanks dominicg for the cache.

Got up late this morning, so only a silver for this one so close to home (807 metres). Not hard to spot where it is hidden - just followed the mud trail. Seems Emily_Angel took a lot of the mud with them! TN, left roo. TFTC.
Bronze for Earthlight early this morning.(10:55am)
Followed the mud trail as well.
A shame the falls were not running.
