Logs
As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
Sorry about the DNF's people, I did a cache check on the way home tonight and it's gone. Going to disable it until I get it up and running again.
We checked all probable cache locations but just couldn`t find it......checked the hint............searched & searched, prodded & poked but just couldn`t find it.
I have done a cache check, and all is good. I have also updated the hint as I think my old hint was throwing people off judging by comments left. Sorry people.
Looked in the obvious location just above head height. It was full of water and there was a collection of sticks on the ground. Could the cache have once been in there... That was what I thought. At any rate some muggles were approaching so I kept moving.
Maybe next time.

First Find!!
Have been playing around with the app on my phone for a while as suggested by my nephew but never searched.
When i saw there was a new geocoin attached with this GC i thought it would be perfect for:
1. My First GC
2. The beginning of our adventure (me & my nephew) in a few weeks
I enjoyed the search, but the dog mentioned in earlier logs makes being discreet impossible. The only time it would stop yapping is when i would stand still trying to center the location.
Also, discovered the concept of timing. Roaming lost around a small park and school kids walking though made me stand out a bit
Took the Geocoin
Left a Ninja
Nice easy one once I found the correct side of the creek.
Dropped off my Birthday present geocoin - appropriate timing because I did something else in the area which will wind the clock back up in other areas!

Wyoming Wombats did an excellent job of rehiding the cache. KenHardlyCache refused to get out of the car becuase it was raining, what an old lady! He'll have to bag the find next time.
Plenty of prying eyes from the locals over the fences but nice easy find (after looking in all the hard places where I thought it would have been) TFTC
Nice find. A nearby dog in a yard scared the crap out of us at GZ. Left a toy soldier, took nothing. TFTC.
Found this one during a night of caching with Lannan and Razz - just don't know when it was and forgot to log it.
3 for the night.
Great little hunt, slurpees all consumed.

Quick find on one of our nightly walks in the area. Often thought of putting a cache somewhere there.
Nice area and another little known local spot. I felt a little exposed in this area, those houses are very close. Nevertheless a pleasant creek and a nice hidden area for kids to play. I walked straight up to the cache. Found immediately, there was something just yelling out here I am. No swaps and the caching business was complete. I added more camo after returning it to its hidey hole.
Haha I had a few attempts of looking UP some trees - theres a great little spot for it nearby - but anyway, glad to find this on the way back home from Cronulla... met a few friendly ducks Hopefully pulled off my stealth attempt.
Hopefully pulled off my stealth attempt.This is in a nice little urban oasis, although I did feel I could be easily seen.
That said, if we are being seen, the neighbours are not muggling the cache anyway, so that is a good sign.
The only thing that slowed me sown was I walked down the wrong side of the creek from Ash Rd, and had to find a way across (low flow so I had planty of rock area to pick from). Went back to the ute the easy way along the path.
thanks for a reason to stop here.

We stopped at the creek and walk up along the track to GZ. I was glad I found it quickly as you are fairly exposed to the locals! TNLN thanks.
I used to play in this creek as a kid in the early, early 60's. In fact I could throw a stone into it from my house. There were hardly any homes but lots and lots of trees that young boys would climb all day (as you do). Crescent Road was a gravel road with bitumen only on the up hill part to Willarong road so that the ' dunny man' truck could make it up the hill.
Memories come flooding back.
Thanks for the cache and bringing me back here almost 50 years later (good grief!).
A quick find because the container was seen as a bit obvious. Re-hid a little better.

My early morning raid on this one in the rain, found the cache nice and dry. Great little spot and thanks for the cache.
Woohoo FTF!
Just got back home from work and checked emails only to see a new cache less than a km away! Thankfully, it was only a short walk to the cache as the legs don't know what's hit them over the last couple of days lol! Cycled 90km yesterday for the Sydney to Wollongong charity bike ride and for some silly reason decided to cycle 55km to work and back today as well!
Found the cache no probs amongst plenty of thunder and lightning but luckily the heavens hadn't yet opened. Never knew of this hidden location.
