Tftc. Found on floor out in open. Re hid it where I thought it may have originally been hidden.
Thanks for hiding this cache it wasnt to dificult and it was my first cache i ever found
Found It!I found two caches here next to each other so I signed both. What is/was this structure?TFTC
Found it. Logged and returned the cache back, only to find an identical cache. Ah, a random choice of which log to fill out. TFTC
I loved this one it was so cute and I’m super grateful that it was in this adorable little spot. Thank u
Checking attributes: "suitable for kids" ... hmmm - only if they grow up fast...

Finally after two DNFs I was able to grab this one but it took a little bit for my eyes to adjust so was a little while in finding it. TFTC
Found after a short search, then had to toss a coin to decided which container to claim as a find - in the end it was the one with the driest log! Thanks JordsAU for the cache
searched for a while. what does attribute mean in this context? Bit of a grotty spot.
Seems like the park has been upgraded since the cache description was written. There is path straight through the park which is accessible from both Grove Street and Orange Street.

Took a little while to find the right hiding spot, but soon had it.
Signed the log and placed back.

The hint led us to the right place and it didn't take long to locate the cache TFTC
That's strange... 2 identical containers in the same location. Signed both logs.
What an odd little shelter, but very cool. Nice new path here, or it doesn't continue along the old proposed road. Quick grab, all is well. Cheers Jords!
Last person here was back in March. There’re now lots of overgrown grass & vines. Can’t find it.
Hey wow that was a really good hide!! Very enjoyable and was a good excuse to check out all facets of the structure haha, TFTC!!
After work today i made my way up here to grab my cache for the day. Just my luck to come at the time we had heavy rain (however brief it may be) for the first time in months.
I parked on Grove St and found that a bike lake has been put in that runs directly beside where the GZ is which makes it easy to reach.
It didnt take long to find both the cache containers thanks to the clue. The shelter came in handy while i was performing signing duties.
Thanks.

After a swim at Epping Aquatic Centre, Eagle Eyed Monkey Girl and me drove around Eastwood to pick up a few caches.
The last cache for the day. Another one next to the road that was never built. Eagle Eyed Monkey Girl spotted the cache and after signing duties we walked over to a cottage right next to the ghost road. We admired the front garden and nicely restored building. We then got to talk to the owner and she kindly invited us in and gave us a tour of her beautiful cottage (build around 1890) and the back yard with a bee hive and a frog pond. And upon leaving her husband gave us a jar of home-made grainy mustard.
These are the moments that I am happy I found geocaching as a pass-time and have someone that shares my joy as well.

A great little hide, took me longer than expected.
The log was full, I added some of my emergency paper, but it will still need a new one soon.

Spotted fairly quickly, but being a short ass my dilemma was how do I reach it. That was the easy part the hard part was putting it back. I couldn’t get it exactly the same spot but close.
Another one of these knocked over. You think they are done and then another pops up on the map. Found quickly. Tftc tnln

I enjoyed this hide - even if it was very challenging.
Thanks, JordsAU

Hi Jords! We found your cache on the abandoned road and structure. Glad I had my TOTT EH with me to get this one. TFTC
I felt abandoned (structure), but felt better when I quickly found a cache. TFTC JordsAu
TFTC, container found on the ground without magnet attached, replaced in a secure position
Today we headed back over to North Ryde and Denistone for some more short walk and "park & grab" caches. And amazingly we ended up making the exact same number of finds (17), and also the exact same number of DNF's (4), as yesterday. This was the 6th of 17 finds for the day.
After finding "Eastwood County Road #7 [Eastwood]" we drove the short distance around to this one for even more unrealised road viewings. Was going to jump the fence, but then decided to heed the CO's advice and drove around to the other side of the grassy "roadway" for much easier access.
Arrived at GZ and made a super quick find, as it was just laying on the ground for all to see. TNLNSL, and then placed it where we think it had come from. Will advise the CO as to where we have placed it. TFTC JordsAU.

OCW morty8888. Had to resort to climbing over the fence here as the gates were locked. Thanks to the generous hint we soon had CIH. What a lovely little old shelter, so well constructed. We did wonder what it was previously used for. TFTC.
Had no idea of this ghost road corridor. Found easily and replaced in what seemed like a ghost bus stop. TFTC
This friendly bin chicken joined me whilst I spot the cache in the corner of my eye. Love all the ivy and vines creep over this structure. Makes me feel like I've gone back in time. Such a tiny log for such a cache. I'm tall and fit so jump over the fence rather easy (park on Orange St). Log bit over half full.

Carrying on towards Macquarie Centre caching as we go on a great day to be outside. Enjoying getting the chance to do some more in this series. After jumping the fence, we made our way to GZ and made a quick find. SL, TFTC!
After a DNF at #7, I had to make up for it with this one. Scaled the fence and made my way to the structure. I was initially overwhelmed with the overgrowth, but spotted the cache rather quickly. Cache# 770 TFTC
Located at 8:12pm. The friendly six-legged Huntsmen Spider observed me as I signed the log. TFTC!

Out for my daily find. Found magnet on ground, but container was elsewhere in a spot that didn't make use of the magnet. Loosely attached magnet to container but replaced as found after SL.

The cache need TLC due to found the only magentic - box is missing Thanks for the cache and hunt
We took notice of the access info for this one and it was an easy entry to the area from Grove St. Just walk around the fence - no climbimg required. On arriving at GZ we were able to spot the cache container quickly, but retrieval was a bit more interesting. However, that was achieved and the log was duly signed.
Successful replacement was also a bit tricky, but we managed that too by using some team work. Thanks go to JourdsAU for bringing us to this area.

Read the cache description and found the best way to get to GZ. No jumping fences today. Once at GZ the cache was spotted straight away. The log was signed and then the cache was replaced as found. Thank you JordsAU for placing this cache.
Out on a beautiful winter day to clock up sum number I have not really cached in the area before just picked up the odd one as I have been passing through. But today I came to cache I want to get about 25 every week for the next 13 months that is my new goal. So here we go. This was number 4 for the day. TFTC.
Finally found it after two dnfs. The dogs were barking so I knew I had to get out of there soon, I texted the CO and found it not long after.

Nice quick & easy find in the way into the Office @ Epping this morning. Get to be careful not to rip my work pants jumping the fence & tried to be stealthy given s verbal dogs in neighbouring properties went nuts. SL / TFTC
Took a small detour on the ride to work today to grab. Saw on street view that the fence on Orange Street could be jumped so left the bike there and made the short walk. Made the find without too much fuss although two dogs on either side weren't too happy about my trespassing.

On this wet day I trawled Denistone for 21 finds and a couple of DNFs. This well and truly filled a calendar vacancy.
A scan around revealed the hide.
