Im archiving this one, as I had the pleasure of meeting one of the devloper here who is a complete rude so and so. I had no complaints about the cache, just removing it as I dont want to go to this crap estate again.

undergoing waterproofing !

removed to perform maintenance will be back on the weekend

The log book is completely saturated and unable to be unfolded or written on.

A nice easy find - we need these once in a while. Log book is completely saturated (zip lock bag isn't zipping or locking) so I didn't sign as I couldn't get the paper unfolded without destroying it, but I did take a photo if I need to post that as proof. Found with Eldest Mini Moff. TNLN TFTC!

A little late in logging this cache but I found it with Hoojar. He had been here before but I hadn't. Lots of stories that day.
Cheers.

I had not been out here since the track was closed. This place brings back many happy memories, sadly no more!

Cheers

TYFC.

Its sad to see the once fertile market garden land where sydney once grew its veggies gone to waste with a sea of rooftops.

found the cache easily, put it back on a little of an angle so that hopefully any water will run off and not go inside again.

An afternoon of easy finds in the area.

Geo-cousin was intent on showing us exactly where the cache was, but I managed to get there before him

Found this one this arvo after work nice easy one to start back into the caching thing.Nice view from there.

Quick and easy find. TFTC!

Quickest find of the lot today. Had a lot of potential house buyers drive past and give us the ol' one-two glare. Noticed the security camera after signing the log book and hot tailed it out of there just in case we were in for a cautionary meet and greet. TFTC , nicely hidden. Nice view of the surrounds

Found with TeamBooo thanks

what a sneaky spot

great cache good spot to hide it

Nice hide! and rather easy, but can be quite difficult to spot. Very impressive town on the grow out there, heard of it once or twice but never seen. Likewise with Harrington Grove. TFTC

Looked for about ten minutes in various spots, when fellow geocacher Rebeccavoy showed up to join the hunt.Our first meet of a fellow cacher in the field! After scrounging around the cache was found! Nice hide indeed prospector27!

TFTC!

Second stop on my day of caching - at which I met fellow geocachers, Team Soupbones (my first time meeting a geocacher in the field).

Wonderful camoflague, we walked past it several times before clicking.

Good Thanks

Still have to get used to the strange way towns are build here!

Quick east find.

The iPhone wasn't as reliable for this cache. I checked the hint and soon had it in hand. Tftc

TFTC! Loggin alot today, so sorry theres no spcific message about the cache, but I really do enjoy every cache I find

A Quick Cache as we where passing through to Cobbity

Thanks for the hunt

9:06pm
Our last for the night, not much traffic around so really had the place to myself. That sucker really blends in eh? Grabbed a trackable out that someone has not logged in as yet.

Cheers

Took Geonieces caching with me during their visit to Grans.

Took :nothing
left: car racer travel bug

A nice hide. Had to be stealthy due to a nearby security guard. TFTC.

I keep forgetting which cache is which LOL but they were all pretty good yesterday! TFTC!

With the silly security car trying to watch, this one was disguised with the GPS being used as a "Camera" to ward off would be snoopers. Found with Davieson, Rindy9 and GeoJackCo. Damn shame the track is gone. My dad still owed me a day out there. First time I ever went there was with you! TFTC you SOB Now go and find mine!

Easy find with another geocacher already at GZ when we arrived. TFTC.

Had only just got to GZ when another car pulled up. The occupants got out and headed in my direction, but I relaxed when I noticed the yellow GPS in the hand.
It was good to meet Kimclive and Clive was the one who came up with the cache as I was too busy taking the hint literally.
Having lived and worked in the area, Its a shame to see this icon racetrack go the way it is.

TFTC

Nice quick one! (Log a little damp...) TNLNSLTFTC!

I replaced the logbook and baggy, as they were wet and holed.

I would have replaced the container with a more waterproof one, but it needed to be a particular size.

Nothing like a 'cutsy' sign to suck in the land buyers...

Thanks for the fun I had here.

the road sure has changed since I first went through years ago. The cache is a bit water logged but could still put our name on it. TFTC

Found and logged at 13:35, A quick grab in the rain
Verry wet log needs replacingTFTC

Quick find while the rest of the fam waited in the comfort of A/C, log is wet I aired out the bag as best I could but was soon back on our way. Thanks for the cache

Quick easy find this afternoon on the way home.

Log is very wet, and probably needs a container that seals better than this one??

TFTC. TLNL. SL.

11.30am. Quick find. Container was full to the top with water. No time to dry the log.

Thank you.  David & Noeline.

GoeWife and I did a cache run around the Narellan, Camden, Picton, Campbelltown area on this sunny Saturday morning and this was one of the caches located!!

Great spot in a growing suburb.

Tks ...... prospector27 .... GazMag

Too easy geocache virgin Gabby found it in about 5 seconds

Nice easy one to do in the rain. Pity about the race track, was the best in Australia. Could watch the whole race from most parts of the track. TFTC

This was late night night find as we headed home from the mountains today. A nice quick find by those bright bright lights.
Thanks

Found after a bit of searching. My GPS put it about 8 Metres away from the East.Maybe all GPS do not read the same.Funny, when I did find I wondered how I missed it. TNLN TFTC Gotcha16

Nice quick drive-by. I picked the wrong "N" at first. Was a nice spot to sit and write up the log.

Found it, took nothing left nothing.

Haven't cached for a while. Decided to do my bit for the 10/10/10 record attempt. Nice short drive for my son on his L plates. Hint made it very simple. TNLN TFTH

Found at 3.50.

Nice & Easy. Great Views.

Came to check out to exibition homes on display.
Will be a great place to live.

Thanks for bringing us here.

Sent from my mobile device.

Thanks, found on the way home. Good to see daylight savings means more caching!

forgot to log. nice hide.tftc

Found on the way to work, thanks.

TFTC! Found the wrong 'N' and had to try aNother oNe.

Unlike the last finders, we had no problem with traffic. In fact, it was pretty dead out there today. We parked just across the road and headed up to the sign. I was looking in the wrong place, thinking the hint was meant to be tricky, but NickoHeap turned it up exactly where it should have been. We stopped to look out across the fields, with the cows roaming along, and wondered what this place will be like in a few years' time. Not too far away, several new houses were being built, but the rural feel hasn't gone yet. Thanks.

This was the first of a day of caching out in this area, catching up with a few outliers that we've missed at previous times. The youngest found it in a short time almost accidentally as it blended in so well. Hard to believe that this area, once a raceway, will soon be devoid of the rolling hills and cows.

Thanks, loved the cache and hide. Keep it up! TFTC

A quick easy find, although I felt uneasy with all the traffic we must have looked dodgy poking around behind the sign in broad daylight with the amount of traffic... Maintained stealth when possible

FTF @ 8.55am a new one closest to home so grabbed the Garmin and new exactly where Oran Park Town is as we have visited the exhibition homes a few times already. TNLN. Thanks Prospector27 and I must say the cattle were curious!
