I'll place it back when I get back from my cruise in about two weeks. Hopefully the vandal kids have forgotten about it by now.
The kids keep getting into this so I have taken it away for a while to restock and possibly move.
Riding past on my bike and saw container lying near hide. Very little left .Placed container back in hide.

Approached from the the wrong side then an easy find with Justjessie on a warm summers day. TFTC.
Took the long way to this one but a nice little stroll anyway. A few kids riding their mini bikes around the GZ so had to pick our moment before we plucked the prize. Thanks for bring us here BTs!
Log book gone, found a few pieces of paper around that other geocachers had signed- placed back in cache replenished goodies and re-hid the cache. But needs a new log book.
This cache has been muggled and was lying out in the open. It probably needs a new location to avoid further disturbance.

Found on the way home from a day of caching in Wollongong. A nice, quick find with michaellenehan for a sunday afternoon.

Found the cache well hidden under debris, but when I opened it was empty. I took a photo, to prove the find, and replaced the cache, but then on looking around the area I found torn out pages from the log book. I salvaged what I could, signed one of the pages, and replaced them in the cache. Looks like the local kids might keep trashing this one...maybe needs a rethink?
Back in a previous life I lived a few hundred metres from here. I used to walk the dog in this area before the housing estate was there. It gradually became harder and harder to find a route to walk as the development progressed and overtook the land. The houses now look fully established, as if they've always been there. Thanks BTs for bringing me back. Cache was a nice easy find - not concealed at all, so I concealed it a little as I replaced it.
I had some spare time today & decided to grab a couple of Bomaderry caches. This is an interesting area with tracks and billabongs everywhere. I went round & round in circles at GZ until I finally spotted the hide. The cache was surprisingly dry considering the amount of rain we have had. SL TFTC
Nice easy walk through a new area we haven't been to before. Camo was a bit average so we tried to improve the cover.
It was great to be looking for a regular sized cache but as we approached gz we were very disappointed to see it lying out in the open for anyone to see.
When we opened it everything seemed to be okay so we put it back and added a little camouflage.
Thanks for the cache and the adventure.

Nowra May 2013 Trip. I managed a few caches in Bromaderry today, and this was nice little walk. I was a bit surprised to see a local walk past while I was at GZ, but I suppose these areas are used by more than cachers. Thanks.

Last in this cluster of five - managed to knock them all over in under an hour! Lots of nice paths and green spaces around here it seems. Quick find here thanks to some geocacher-obvious camouflage. Took the koala TB. TFTC!
Finally thought it was time to find some caches in our home town and this proved to be one of them. We have lived here nearly all of our lives and this is the first time we had been to this bush track. That's what we love about this hobby or is that obsession? TFTC JenneG & Budgy
A quick find in another part of Bomaderry I had never ventured to before. Watched some of the local kids ironing out the kinks in their newly constructed BMX jump on the way back out, but wasn't tempted to test out the mean green machine's jumping ability. Thanks for the cache TheBTs
Rated: for Overall Experience
A quick detour of the highway had me at this little hidden path behind the houses. Once you find the right starting point all is well and easy.

Visiting Nowra today so we decided to seek some caches as well, quick find. Lovely little bit forest, cache soon located, dropped off TB. TFTC
Looks like a popular walking and BMXing playground. Cache found well hidden and in good order. SLTN..TFTC
Nabbed with Fitzy1965 on a run through the area.
Nice spot for a cache, access pretty easy.
Thanks for the cache.

The team was reduced in number but not enthusiasm! Handily found by the Princess. SL took a maze toy, left a badge. TFTC BTs.
6429 + 809 = 7238. Found during a run down to the Nowra region with Zsazsa7.
A short walk in from where we parked and soon the nice sized container was revealed. Interesting spot along here.
Thanks TheBTs !

Great little caching run with the WEEO with the locals all mowing. Had to laugh at the description of one meter off the track, it's like my geowife says about my minutes, about 5 times as long as regular minutes.
A nice cool spot today and no Muggles. It might be a bit more than a meter off the track but an easy find. TFTC TNLN SL. Did this with GeoSon. Another great caching day.
A pleasant afternoon so went & looked for a few caches. Arrived to find that there was no life guard present & I'd forgotten my bucket & spade. Considered my position but decided to have a look anyway & soon had it in hand. Thanks.
Went back out with Pete & Liz again to have look for this one and got it quickly.
Second go at this. New co ordinates made a huge difference. Shared this FTF with the 4 Runners
Found it because a caught red handed a Lis+Pete and The 4Runners, thanks to both of them and TFTC.TNLN
Two of us had a good look around in the many places that seemed likely. No find.
Spent 15 mins looked in all the obvious places. Will give it one more try. 4 no finds has got to say something.

Rain, thunder and lightning in the middle of the night. The cache was there but the coords just not quite right. Two GPS in hand but one won't lock on the phone as the last resort to check my work.
No need to dig through grass or where creatures could be lurking but dig a little bit you will, that is to be certain.

I will be over later to check it is still there. I didn't think it would be that hard.
GZ was easy enough to find when you start from the right place.
GZ put me in the middle of the track.
Unable to find cache.
5 minutes with a slasher would have found it.

This was the second cache for the day however the phone GPS was giving me a 5 meter accuracy, not keen on looking for cache in this sort of country due to the high amount of red belly blacks snakes that are around. Plus the kids were jumping their bikes not far away either so it made it even harder to locate the booty
Thanks for the chance
