TFTC. Cache has no lid & is extremely wet. Photo attached as POF.

Walked past this one a few times. Great spot. No lid though so cache is drenched inside and unable to sign it. TFTC

I walked past it 3 times. Very good hiding spot

Got it, thanks, but I’m more interested in understanding what the clue means!

Few caches on the way home for this special day !! 22/2/22 !!!!
At GZ quick find but the container didn’t have any lid. Log book a bit wet but managed to sign it.
TFTC

Found it!

Was a little tricky to find but lost of fun TFTC

Took a while to fine. TFTC

Nice hint, very sneaky :p

Lid's missing, cache is water-damaged

Quick find and an interesting place unfortunately cache was open to the elements and the log was extremely wet. Needs replacing.

Found during a geocaching trip with Foreignnebula and Cheese_Pizza13. Thanks very much for the cache!

Found after reading previous logs. As previous finders noticed, no lid, a bit waterlogged. Did sign log.

Nice spot. container had no lid and was full of water.

Tftc, it’s wet, lids gone and will need to be replaced

Log needs replacing. Needs new container

Log is very wet. No lid on container.

Found it. But could not sign. The log is in desperate need of repair.

After completing the AL in Nurrugingy Reserve, I drove over to another part of the parklands for some more caches.

I am never keen on tall grass in summer as it may hide some scary creatures. But if there is a cache to be found....

TFTC!

Western Sydney Parklands is a lovely area to walk through. Its great to see this long stretch of reminant bushland being maintained in its original state and that sealed pathways have been provided for walking and to protect the flora. I actually know the person responsible for joining up all the pieces and making it one continuous stretch of bushland through western Sydney. He is still working on weed removal and revegetating the area with original native species.

As we walked along the path we read the cache information and approaching saw something which seemed to match the hint but as I turned around I noticed something better and checking the GPS it was closer to the co-ordinates. The cache was quickly found there.

The log is dry and signable but the container has no lid and doesn't fit very well where it was found. Is that the original hide?

TFTC # 4350

A quick find. Lid was missing. OCW Jackscruff after event nearby. TFTC Deputy D0g

Found it but dropped my pen somewhere in my excitement

TFTC needs some loving!

OCW MavEtJu today as an escape from the everyday and super happy to be out for a walk. Another easy find in this part of the park. Thanks Deputy D0g.

It's time for MavEtJu and ziggiau to raid the area. Second lot, between Blacktown Olympic Park and Bunya - TFTC!

Found however the log sheet is full and has been recently wet from the rains

Container was getting wet and had a slug in it. Hard to sign the log. Found with Julie. TFTC

Some good and succesfull caching in the Parklands and Quakers Hill area. Had solved a lot of puzzles in preparation and also prepared myself for a lot of bike riding. Just had not counted on the weather not playing. Although mostly cloudy and only a few drops here and there, it was the heavens opening up about half way through the day, only 400 meters from the car but enough to get soaking wet!!

Thanks for the cache! First find for n macveitch today The plastic bag keeping the log book dry is torn and it’s a bit wet despite it being a dry day.

Just needs a bit of waterproofing

Found on 27/08/20 but forgot to log here. OCW Camicles

Found on 27/8 with Lycieski but forgot to log it! No lid and wet. Needs some love.

OCW young morty8888 picking up a batch of caches around the Western Sydney Parklands that have bobbed up recently. We had a quick find here although we may have got lucky with the sun catching the container. TFTC Deputy DOg.

OCW Oldmorty around the Western parklands on a warm day. Again Oldmorty found this whilst I was searching the totally wrong 7 fingered friend. No lid but seems to be surviving. TFTC!

Searched earlier today without luck, walked to get another cache, on the way back I read prevoius logs and then it did not take long to find. TFTC

TFTC. Cache has no lid so log could get wet.

Found log on floor, took another 5 min to find container, no lid. Thanks

Found it after we saw some logs wondering about away from cache. Found cache put logs back in and put a little plastic bag to act as lid as lid is missing

Easy

Catching up on logging all my finds since i joined in July. Easily found this one tftc!

GGCoconut is on fire this afternoon and found this before I'd even left the path. Although the log is in good condition, the container itself is a bit yuck and lid is missing. Tftc!

Although the log is in good condition, the container itself is a bit yuck and lid is missing.

Log is wet & needs replacing as cache has no lid.

Not to hard to find if you read clues and recent comments.

18 October 2019
This is find number: 3718
Streak Day: 1401

Found today while in the area. Thanks

Thanks to Deputy D0g for placing and maintaining this cache.

TFTC

TFTC, quick and easy find.

We found it

Found in poor condition and water logged but log is dry.

found with cariozeke last month

Took a while for the gps to settle and then it was a quick find. TFTC!

Needed this one “sapphire” to complete the Museum Gem Heist, thanks.

TFTC, handy hint!

Well placed. TFTC

The x-teams third cache find of the day!

Found fairly quickly, trees clue was handy. It’s quite wet still too

My third cache of the day.
After grabbing All Hallows Eve i doubled back to grab this one before heading back to the car.
The clue was a good one and made sense at the GZ. It didnt take too long to find the cache.
Unfortunately the lid has come off the cache and water has leaked in. The log was wet but because it was the write-in-the-rain type of paper i could still sign it.
Thanks.

started to sprinkle so a quick search was in order, lucky it didn't take long to spot

Had no problems in finding this cache. The cache was found quickly and easily after a short search. The log was signed and then the cache was replaced as found. Thank you Deputy D0g for placing this cache.

CACHE #137
Found at 15:18hrs, 3 of 3.
YES!
DNF twice before, now a smiley.
I cannot imagine why I did not find this previously, literally took 5 minutes of my time - if that.

Signed log and replaced exactly as found. TFTC

Easy find TFTC

Located at 12:05pm. #890

This was my third find today after a meeting earlier this morning at Wetherill Park. Cache was quite exposed when I approached and could easily be picked up during the next rubbish clean up. After signing, I rehid with some natural camouflage on top. Much obliged for the placement.

Большое спасибо! תודה! L’chaim! TFTC!

Got it TFTC

This one was pretty hard to find but saw it in the end after figuring out what the hint was Co-ords a few meters out but that doesn’t change a thing
TFTC #29 (4 of 5 today)

**Total find count: 553**

A short Sunday afternoon in the western suburbs of Sydney, with a handful of reasonably quick finds before heading home for a relaxing Sunday evening?

------
After the last find, a short walk to this GZ, with the warm weather, I was wary of slithering snakes, athough none were spotted (doesn't mean they aren't there though). The GPS had me located at a particular tree but nothing stuck out.

I regathered my thoughts and widened the search, but nothing stuck out at me. Read through some more logs and with re-adjusted geosenses, they cache appeared before me. This cache definitely needs a new container, the new log has already started getting soggy.

Two soggy loggies, and a non-watertight container.

good walk

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

We came down to Bungarribee Park to do a reccy of the facilities prior to my DIL’s baby shower. We decided to make an afternoon of it and did a large loop of the surrounding parkland tracks.
The GPS had me quite a distance from the guardians. The clue lead to the right place. The cache was a soggy mess though as the container has been compromised.
