Having done the first couple of this trail when I was visiting the Mt Annan Botanic Gardens last year I decided it was time to head back south and completer the trail.
This was where I started.
It was much trickier than I expected and I was beginning to think this was not a good start to the day, Having come all the way from the north of Sydney I was very determined and spent a very long time here. There were lots of spider webs which I was reluctant to touch. These days there's so many things you shouildn't touch!
Looking from various angles and I finally found it. Thank goodness for that!

Thankfully a relatively quick find here. As others have said, it's all about the right perspective! Tftc!
Reading some other logs definitely helped here but thankfully the cache was in hand! U fortunately no pen so I improvised with a “NA” and “TW” for myself and teganwells. Log is starting to fill up
Yay! Our third find of the Harrington Park trail today. Looking to continue our 'no DNF's ' streak.
Find # 5650
Found with sesblocker.
Using Bent's Basin as a base, we've ventured out to collect a few smileys.
Like those before us, we started at the wrong level lol.

Spotted very quickly from the right angle and made it a much higher terrain to grab. That's half the fun right? Tftc
Attempting to complete the Mystery at the Museum promotion in one day.
Cache was found after searching the logical spots. TFTC

Today Muppet95 and I set out to complete as much of the "Mystery at the Museum" challenge as possible, having earned the initial clue and souvenir at his event last night. Muppet95 had laid out a plan of attack centred on Camden, so he navigated while I drove the trusty GeoForester and we shared the finding duties. We had a couple of DNFs and, factoring in caches that one or the other of us had already found, we took a little longer than anticipated but both managed to get to the final stage of the challenge, collecting enough clues and jewels to earn the relevant souvenirs. All up a very pleasant and rewarding morning exploring the area.
Nearing the end of our time-on-target window when we would have to turn back towards home, I still needed two jewels to complete this stage of the challenge. A quick look on the map showed #3 and #4 of this trail with the right jewels needed so a somewhat spirited drive had us here where I overshot the mark and Muppet95 made the find. Nice area here but we've got to keep moving. TFTC!

Sadly 1st of 3 DNF's at Harrington Park today. Luck was not on our side, obviously. Next time.
Took way longer than it should have bit found it in the end.
So easy when the angle is right

A DNF for me today. The pressure of 3 muggle across the road watching me did not help.

Another Friday arvo cache find with hooky68 on our way home. 1 of 3 we found. A nice quick find with a tip from hooky. TFTC.
Just about to give up on this one.Decided to leave and did some searching on the way.Found about five meters from my GPS ground zero.A well hid Cache. TFTC
Today I teamed up again with marj01 for another day of caching, this time around the Narellan/Camden/Cobbity areas. We had a very enjoyable and adventurous day visiting the cache locations, finding a heap of hides but also a few DNF's along the way.
A quick find. TFTC.

A find that took far longer than it should have to place our hands upon, while are out doing some Mother’s Day caching and enjoying the beautiful autumn day.
Thanks Mozy04, vanmoz for placing this cache.

#5908 (2 of 5 today)
For my goal of having ten finds per calendar day by the end of this year, the next day where I actually ***need*** a find is in mid April. But there are still quite a few days where I currently ***only*** have those ten finds. Today is one of them. Where possible I’m trying to push my finds on here days up a bit more, and for today decided to go for five finds.
I noticed that the *Harrington Park Trail* has been untouched by me since picking up *#1* some two and a half years ago. Far too long. And there are five left...
Got those five and I see there are still a few caches around here for me to pick up in the future.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Nice quick find this time. In a logical spot.
Signed and replaced then onwards

Taking advantage of house/dogsitting in the area to tick off some local caches at a leisurely pace (especially in the heat), spotted cache fairly quickly but dropped it as I went to return. Luckily the co-ords were a little out according to my gps and I could easily retrieve the container from below without getting my feet wet.
Once again we were all too confident about finding this cache. After a couple of minutes I decided to descend below deck. Still our searches failed until I finally spotted it in a sneaky location! TFTC
This cache had us looking in the obvious places as we observed the effects below from last week's stormwater. With no sign from our initial search, llama_boy looked down low to find the cache on high.
It's always impressive to see a cache tucked away so nicely. What should have been an easy took quite some time. This time llama_boy had the sharp eye.
Searched for about 15 min, couldn’t find it anywhere. I’ll swing back here another day to have another look
Quick little find this time, last time we saw a black snake below and freaked out. Tftc!
It was just mere coincidence that i decided to have another look for this after my failed search with Rainbow Spirit a while back. When i looked in the right angle and spotted this one, upon opening the log where RS had signed his name earlier this morning.
At least i logged my find before he did!
Thanks for the cache.

How the hell did I miss this cache the last time I was here? It took all of about 30 seconds to find this time!
Wandered here from number #2 with our new caching friend and we were soon quick to spot this one by one. TFTC
#4652- Continuing on from no 4, we had just mentioned how there were none so far on bridges, only to arrive at …. a bridge. Once the GPS settled down, bikerbuddy moved a little further up and made the find. Thanks
The hide turned out to be pretty much exactly what I had expected, but the GPS wanted me a little further along when we first got there. As it settled down I moved further along to make an easy find. Thanks
Another difficult parking cache and hide as for some reason the GPS was all over the place. But, it just had to be where I found it!

007Mushu made the find on this one while Little Cricket and myself were looking in a different spot. Great hide TFTC
What a beautiful morning. Great to be out doors and a bit of a walk. Nice area. The GPS just keeps bouncing around here so a systematic search was made and the cache was signed. Cheers
Found after a search and then a logical search,coords bounced around, but ended up around 6m out,parked outside a house with timed watering system,clean car now,tftc
After 2 DNFs I was worried the cache had already been muffled but cache is still there... all is well.
[*FTF*]On a mission today with Crash2079 to collect a certain TB in Nowra. We found this one as we passed by. I could not resist the lure of a FTF as i had not found one for july Thanks Mozy04 for the placement All good at the cache. Cheers
I bumped into RS looking for this one. Combining our efforts the cache wasn't found.
