Can't find it. Been here twice this week with two different friends.
I believe I may have found where it was hidden, but no cache in site.

DNF for this one, had a good look all around GZ, also looked at previous logs for hints. Area clean no poo or cache. bongscong.

Turns out I'd actually found it a while ago with thecachinghuman when I thought it was a syringe. Couldn't sign log as it was in too poor condition. T

Despite reasonably accurate coordinates it took a few minutes of hunting before we found this cache. Unfortunately the logbook has not been sealed from the elements and it had got very wet, then dried out but that has made the log very brittle and it is falling apart. It needs urgent maintenance. Thanks bongscong for the cache.
After 2 DNFs this morning its good to finally find one.
I found the area and realised this would happily be a park and grab. At the GZ (easily recognisable due the name i started checking potential hiding spots and soon turned up the cache.
The log was slightly damp and i needed a TOTT to get it out but i soon had things signed and back in place.
Thanks.

Found at 16:02hrs, 7 of 13.
Walked to location from "Pemulwuy Power Trail #11". GPS led me straight to GZ, however for some unknown reason, I seemed unable to work out the hint. However, after turning over the camo - I located container.
Signed log and replaced exactly as found. TFTC

This was the second of 9 finds for the day. After finding ‘One Tree Hill’ I headed towards Pemulwuy and the power trail, keen to build the points for the October souvenir. I parked in a nearby street, and found GZ quite quickly but the clue had me puzzled. I checked several likely options that would hold a cache and was about to give up when I tried a few more and spotted the cache. Only then did the clue make sense. SL. TFTC.

Heading away for a Hen’s weekend, took a detour to research my EC Day Souvenir and grab a few bonus finds towards the Caching Connoisseur one. Took a little while to locate this sneaky hide even though I knew I was in the right place given the name.
Setting out today, Ms Atalanta and I went to the western area known as Pemulwuy.
Pemulwuy was an aboriginal man born around 1750 in the area of Botany Bay in New South Wales. He is noted for his resistance to the European settlement of Australia which began with the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788. He is believed to have been a member of the Bidjigal (Bediagal) clan of the Eora people.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pemulwuy
This was our final find for today.

Deciding I needed to pull my finger out for this year if I wanted to average one find a day coincided nicely with this lovely winter's day and the early days of the Hidden Creatures promotion. So, geoboyfriend and I decided to target some caches around Pemulway today.
We patiently waited for muggles (using the time to remove the many farmer's friends from our pants!) then signed the full log in a gap, before continuing on our way.

Found and signed. As previously noted the cache is exposed to the elements. Was able to sign but it probably needs attention.
cache and log in need of maintenance. cache no longer waterproof as it's currently just an open tube. log has been weathered and is also full, needs replacing. but it is still usable. clue is spot on. but I decided to feel through rock holes for 10min prior to reading clue.
Find count: 247
We were out and about today, grabbing some random caches from all over Sydney, and with no particular plan, these were the caches we found today.

I parked near GZ and wanted to grab one last cache on the way home as the light was fading.
The revealed a possible location, and I spotted something that may have been the cache. A closer inspection and it was the cache itself.
I had CIH and signed the log.

Today I had come over to Pemulwuy to complete the Powertrail and grab a couple of other caches along the route.
This was by far the hardest cache of the morning.
Having had an encounter with a snake at the Mega on Friday I was a bit apprehensive when I read the cache information but decided to try for it anyway, armed with a long stick though.
I checked many suitable places to hide a cache before it finally revealed itself. Signed the logsheet which will soon need to be replaced and rehid the cache.
No snakes encountered but there were lots of birds in the trees above.

The gps didn't want to settle here at first but it was a quick find in the logical spot, The camo is coming of a little which exposes the cache a little . Thanks for the cache bongscong tnln replaced as found sl
Found this one to be fairly straight forward, we added some more camo when we left.
Saturday morning caching with blundobusters and karennicole doing the trail. It was where I thought although nearly missed it on first look. TFTC.
Family caching day with Blundo Busters and thereimer on a Saturday morning. We found the four trees and located the cache. It was a little bit broken and found on the ground. We fixed it up a bit. I had to have the clue explained to me LOL!! Thanks bongscong
A beautiful day
We've taken a nice walk in this beautiful park in Pemulwuy today and have also found this cache
Thank you for the nice cache

Doing the trail, but this is a good extra along the way. Bit of a tricky hide, but fairly quickly located by Mr MR. TFTC.
Nicely secreted. Kathalia’s dog enjoyed the shade while we completed the signing duties.
Thanks bongscong.

Arrived at GZ and thought where would I hide a cache? Bingo! CIH. Did the legals and replaced as found. TFTCM

We were a bit concerned about the thick cover of leaves as we approached but it turned out to be a quick find. TFTC.
Luckily Clan of 6 decided to have another look after Gabstar discounted the obvious spot as it was there... She'd just missed it in the dark. TFTC
Located at 8:54pm. Third of six finds. My chauffeur sister had taken an ‘important’ telephone call and thus couldn’t drive any more but with the next four caches being so close together I decided to do the rest by foot. The rain had started drizzling but this made no never mind to me. Anything for the cache! I assumed something else entirely with this hide and was trying to dismantle park equipment but whilst doing so I had also called Coastblue who was attempting a cache I had recently logged and thus it was that we guided each other to making the find, for she had recently logged this one. Cheers! Спасибо! תודה! L’chaim! Happy Chanukah! TFTC!
#1459 came here not long after it was released but couldn't think of an answer to the hint. This time walked straight up to the hide and soon had tge cache in hand. Don't know why I didn't try that spot before. Oh well
Signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the cache bongscong

Decided to give my numbers a bit of a boost to see if I can reach 2000 by the end of the year. Brought the bike with me on this boiling hot day. Made a quick detour to this one while chasing down the nearby power trail.
Had to think about the hint for a moment but on approaching GZ it all made sense. And of course finding the cache just followed naturally.

Tracked over from the eastern burbs to tackle the Pemulwuy Power Trail and the three others suggested by the CO. Probably could have chosen a cooler day but for the most part I was the only one on the trail. I started at the first cache and then followed the numbers picking up this cache along the way. I must say it looks like doggy doo. TFTC.
OCW Rodney1210. When I saw GZ I thought it would be harder than what it was. Deducing the hint made for a quick find. TFTC!
Decided to come and do the new little power trail and some associated caches as a bit of a numbers run today, as I have been a little quiet on the caching front lately and need a few finds if I want to manage my desired average of at least one a day over the calendar year.
After looking over the general area the hint clicked and after tipping it on it's end there was the cache. Thanks bongscong.

OCW Coastblue. Tackling the Pemulwuy power trail and a few others. About half way through a big day. Nice little park to stop for a short break before continuing. Love the hint! Cache# 529 TFTC
Heading home from a work meeting I decided to detour via this mini series of caches. Parking near No:1 the following 2 hours were an enjoyable walk around the streets where I grabbed a plethora of caches.
Took me a while to get the clue to fit, I was thinking on a different level
Thanks for the series.

Dropped in to the Prospect area to visit the Pemulwuy Power Trail and nearby caches.
Tally for the day, 23 finds and 2 DNFs.

The second of the two DNFs for the day.
Poke, prodded everywhere but nope.
Must mark down for when I next visit this area.

Hunted around but no find tonight, now to pump up the slow leak on the bike and head back to Blackers
Thankfully no snakes spotted today.
Cache was laying on the ground in plain site though.
Sighed log and replaced in rather funny hint item

A nice easy find, but the ants were a bit unhappy about me disturbing their home.
Decide to head out here today with Mr roo and drive around to greystones... easy found thanks
Got to this gz and while I was trying to work out the hint, All7 started searching and found it quickly. TFTC
On the way home from visiting a client in Moorebank, and after having tried a couple of other caches, I went for this one. Parked in the nearby street and headed down, noticing the sign with Warning for Snakes. Beat around in the bush a bit before looking into a suspicious location where something likewise suspicious seemed to be hiding. Soon had the cache in hand, signed the log, and continued on my way home.
There was no difficulty finding this one as there were not many places it could be hiding. All was done as required and then it was replaced in position for the next cacher to find. Thank you to bongscong for putting this cache into play.

This was a qaepag too.. I saw the cache hidden in plain sight but didn't think it would be that easy so I didn't touch it.. then Pk was looking and I said what's that next to your foot and he picked it up to find the log! No snakes found on the way.. But found a snake near a previous cache!
