We didn't realise until we arrived at GZ that this hadn't been found for a while. We did have a look around but had no luck. Nice bridge. Cheers... Gaztek
Has been found for sometime and no response from CO so could this please be archived
Took a slight deviation on my way to work today, jumping off the M5 at King Georges Road, to grab a few caches & multi waypoints at Beverly Hills, Wiley Park, and Lakemba. A total of 3 finds, plus 2 waypoints and 2 DNFs, for the day.
Looked high & low but failed to find the cache. TFTH anyway gullightly.

Can the cache owner please confirm cache present. We spent over half hour searching for this one with no goods found. Unless ive gone blind id say it might be missing.
Coords a little jumpy and after searching, at night with a small torch, I finally went back to where I thought it should be. Had a better look and saw the blue flash. Quite windy up here tonight, and previous finders have said the log is full. So instead of risking losing the log altogether I’ve added photo proof. CO please delete if you feel it is too much of a spoiler.

Very quick and easy find here. Great to go geocaching on the last day of these holidays.

I managed to find this one on a short rest stop driving across town.
It was a short search having inadvertently read the clue.
It was a great spot at night - so calm as the vehicles below race home for a night's rest before the week resumes.
Agree with previous comments the log could do with updating. Just managed to squeeze on there.

Had to wait for GPS to settle then did a process of elimination. Great hide. Log is full though
Shoe laces facing north. Blue bison. Spot on. A nice quick one to start a day of geocaching. Note to CO: time for a new log, I just squeezed my name in the last available spot. TFTC gullightly.
Logbook full as said before but managed to squeeze 7 characters more on there! Tftc
Easy parking than I first imagined and a lack of muggles too. The directions led to a quick find. As reported the log is full but I managed to squeeze in an "Aries44" down the side. Carefully rehid. TFTC gullightly.

Great cache! Quite easy but the logbook is quite full so maybe replace it. ( Unfortunately had no paper today) TFTC

#6841 Arrived to Australia for three days ago, I and Rokkan will take some caches in Australia.
This weekend did we fly to Sydney. Our goal was to find the oldest cache in Australia. But of course did we logg some more caches in the city. Now is the temperatur over 50 degrees. I supose that it is only crasy Swedish cacher who is out caching now. Thanks for the cache and greetings from Sweden.

Came by to grab this one this morning on the way to work while still dark so not too much traffic thankfully. Just noticed that it was hidden three years ago today too! TFTC.

A bit of a maze to be able to park nearby but made it to the shops which made for a quick find with Happy Jackie. Thanks
GeoDirk is skiing with the scouts. HanorahTLG is at an aunt having a Harry Potter movie weekend. That can mean only one thing: A peaceful and quiet noon for geocaching!
It was an interesting challenge getting on top of it when you go southbound, but it was done! Carefully put it back afterwards.

Thanks! So much fun and excitement when it was found for our first time Geocaching
After dropping my brother off t the airport I needed something to cheers me up. As he lives in Hove England and I had been 4 years since I have seen him and only God know when he will return to us. So I was pretty upset. Finding a cache would cheers me up. Thanks for this easier one not to far off my way home. TFTC.
Nice quick find with no muggles in sight, well those on the road speeding by but none on foot.

That's a very busy road!
I'm glad of the bridge to get me across safely.
Coords were spot on and I made a quick find

At first I went well into the cage but with no success I backtracked to the start of the bridge and started again with quick success.

Gps was playing up and too a little time to find but got there in the end.
Traffic massive at peak hour but muggles to busy watching the road (I Hope)

Approached the likely area and headed towards GZ. Guessed the type of spot it would most likely be in. After a quick search the cache was spotted in its hiding place. I have driven on this busy road many times but never walked over the bridge before. Now I'll be on the lookout for other cachers searching for it when I drive by in future
Quick find with mikev1. Walked across the bridge and spotted it immediately. Well hidden sneaky little place to put this blue bison. Coords and hint spot on! TFTC. #292.
Just so happened we wanted to do a cache today and visit a few aquarium shops. This provided the perfect location to do both with just the one stop
A quick and easy find on a very busy main road -even on Australian Day.
Happy Australia Day!
Our January calendar is now full

Found with morry9 during a day out in an effort to help me get closer to reaching my milestone goal of 2,000 finds at the last ever Geocaching Block Party in Seattle this August. We started over at Lidcombe with Harry's End and then travelled to Homebush West for Bushes and Fields - Henley Reserve. In Homebush we did Bushes and Fields - Slater Reserve and Bushes and Fields - Airey Park. Over to Strathfield we collected Bushes and Fields - Kessell Square, Bushes and Fields - Boden Reserve, Yarn Bombing Rocks, Bushes and Fields - Davey Square Reserve, Grevilleas DO NOT rock, Heydes Hundred (a challenge cache), Bushes and Fields - Todman Reserve (Barker Road), Bushes and Fields - Strathfield Park and Palmer Avenue Troll @ Strathfield.
Next we made our way over to Potts Hill and found dishlicker series No 3 (potts pak), before heading towards Yagoona for Park and Grab #1 O'Neill Park and Park and Grab #7 Gazzard Park. In Bankstown we grabbed Park and Grab #8 McLeod Reserve, Park and Grab #5 Apex Reserve and Ruse park. We then picked up Just Keep Walking #3 and Just Keep Walking #2 in Narwee, before finishing off in Beverly Hills with Just Keep Walking #1, Unguarded Moment, King Georges road troll Roselands and King George's road M5 linear park.
All in all, a fun day out with morry9 and for all of the caches, I Signed Log and Took Nothing Left Nothing. A successful day out in terms of find rate! Thanks For The Caches to all of the respective Cache Owners.

14:50, 22 July 2015. #216. Tricky parking as recommended, but worked today. Another nice find on the way to the airport. Now back to the fray.

this was the last cache of the morning while out on a walk with the GeoBro and the GeoNephew. This could have been quite tricky as there seemed to be so many potential hiding places but as the GPS was accurate (not to mention that the GeoBro had found it previously and was able to give a helping hand ) the cache was quickly in hand.

Found today while playing golf nearby, took me a while to locate. GPS was showing a different place, then when was about to give up, noticed something of interest. Thanks to gullightly. I can cross another day off my calendar.

Felt good to get this one. Even had a sausage on a roll ready for me at the aquarium.
After a game of golf was heading home when I remembered this one. Took me a while but got it eventually. 1pm and not a muggle in sight. TFTC gullightly
The first time I came here was in my first week or so of caching. Back then I thought 'blue bison' was a cryptic clue! Now that I know better, the cache was able to be found! Thanks for the great coord's gullightly
haha since i'm in the area... I must say i wasn't too "stealthy", wonder what the security footage looked like this arvo with misspalot pacing back and forth >.<
It was difficult to spot so thank you for the colour hint, alright now I should head home. Thanks gullightly!

Looked and looked and looked and suddenly it was right there in front of me, in its brilliant shade of blue. Cheers from WA. TFTC.
The hints from others did help! Great location:-) found with ziggiau, mrsmash and dingoman007

I remember this set of shops - I even bought from one of them, long gone and still vacant.
Parked in a nearby street and walked to GZ.
A quick find once I was on the right level - it was visible as I approached.
Completed signing duties and replaced so it is, hopefully, a little less visible.

I couldn't find it. So I think somebody needs to go and check if it is still there.
I thought trolls lived under bridges?
An easy find (and easy parking) with the sun rising on what was a beautiful spring day.
Thanks G

Quick find after reading the hint. TFTC although my lemon sized pregnancy lungs weren't thanking you for the uphill ascent... Slowly does it...
Final cache find along the M5 Linear Park on a walk from Bexley North through Kingsgrove ending in Beverly Hills. While the traffic along King Georges Rd was building up, the pedestrian traffic was not nearly as busy so it was easy to pick a moment to grab this cache. SL and replaced, TFTC gullightly!
Found by our newly converted muggle (Tallan643)

After doing a few other ones I managed to park in a nearby street for a short stroll to this one. Had the wrong level at first but then made amends and arriving at GZ soon had the cache sorted. Thanks!
Liked this 'Road Troll' - neat little hide, and the hint was perfect. SL; TFTC
