Hi Jesa934,
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 4 weeks) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 4 weeks to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Heading back from the event so decided to grab a few more offerings. The hint lead us to the likely object and after a lap made the find. TFTC

A day out with the geo dog. I decided to visit a few random caches in the area between Eastwood and Ryde. It turned out to be a nice day with a nice variety of hides.

#597. Happy International Geocaching Day! A nice quick find. Unable to sign log though as it was too wet. TFTC!
Found it but the log was a bit wet and we didn’t want to risk damaging it by trying to extract it. TFTC
I was about to look at the WhereIGo but walked over here after parking. After checking some typical places I suddenly saw the cache, quite exposed actually. After logging nearby I replaced it as found, thanks for the hide.
Found It!
I found this one before starting the drop bears wherigo. Odd spot for a cache.

Second time here. First time I got rained out. I knew what the hint meant. Got a parking spot right beside the GZ which gave me a bit of cover. Saw something I thought it was the cache so fetched a stick and dragged it out, nup just rubbish. Then started feeling around and gross spider webs, eventually got the cache. Very clever hide.
Found with Queen_Taz99 after some Boxing Day sales to get some chill time. Thanks for bringing us here
Looked for 10mins in surrounding area. After looking at photo in activity thread I would say it has been taken ️
There were some places I didn't want to put my hands (underneath), but also noted that this is a brand new bin, perhaps the cache has gone?
Found in this deserted spot today. The log was very wet for some reason but being waterproof paper, just need a bit of sponging before signing. Thanks Jesa934.
After the nonsense going on in Penrith over the last week, I sort refuge in a number of local caches . All the caches were in good condition, well constructed and maintained and although not overly challenging were well hidden in logical spots. I don't think I will ever complain about a well placed and maintained nano, bison, specimen tub or mint tin ever again.
Found this one lying on the ground in plain site. I replaced in a more secure location.

In between work standby, SES callouts and a need for some caching I managed to get up to Sydney today with the intent of getting to the celebration event. Along the way I had a few caches in mind but as usual they consumed more of my time than expected so I only bagged a handful of finds.
Found this cache sitting on the ground, it'd probably been washed off its placement. The log was wet but RITE for a scribble.

TFTC Had to wait for someone sitting in their car to leave but after that a nice easy find
Cache was on the ground and so made for a quick find. Replaced as intended and picked up another wonder. TFTC!
Quick find after waiting for the muggles parked almost on top of this one. Thanks for the cache.
I was very glad I had my gloves on when I was looking for this one.
So many spider webs, fortunately I didn’t see an actual creature.

Parked as close as we could get, with the GPS saying 2 metres. Quick search around the structure revealed the hidden cache. Lots of people in the nearby scout hall, but nobody noticed us.
Clever little hide and clue in a nice park which was pretty much mugglexfree on a smoky Sunday afternoon. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
Over the the past few years, the Bromance (comprising CrookedPete, Seffnjarah, SwellerFungus and most recently JezNDez) have enjoyed road trips, bushwalking, overnight hikes, mountain climbing, kayaking and other adventures in search of some elusive caches. The first planned adventure for the brand new decade was a multi day hike in Kosciusko National Park bagging Australia's highest dozen peaks and all nearby caches.
Enroute to our adventure, Australia's bush fire crisis unfolded, and with the Kosciusko region on fire and closed, our plans gradually morphed to a caching road trip back to Queensland, collecting unusual and rarer caches along the way.
Grabbed this one whilst chasing drop bears around this park.
Thanks Jesa934

Found on new years eve 2019 on a stinking hot day.
After getting of work early today i needed a cache for my streak so i headed over here to try my hand at this one.
I ended up parking meters from the cache and after only a minutes search was able to get my hands on it.
For a standard type cache i liked the camo and placement of this one.
I almost needed to grab a TOTT from the car to extract the log but got it out with some difficulty with my fingers.
The container is in good condition and the log is dry.
Happy new year. May the new one be better than the last.
Thanks.

Some caching North of the Parramatta River today. Rarely I come this far as there are to many caches between home and here! Today I did the Parramatta park run and enjoyed some caching in the area afterwards.

The area was overrun by people and their pooches but we were still able to grab the cache. Thanks Jesa934
There were dog trials being held on the adjacent oval but we were able to grab the cache during a quiet moment.
Good one, thanks Jesa934.

Find #: 2,133
Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Damp winter morning
Cache condition: Good
On the way home from the Parramatta ParkRun I decided to find a quick cache, so I parked across the road (easier to get out afterwards) and headed across. Once at GZ it didn't take too long to get CIH based on a systematic search. TNLNSL, but then struggled to get the log back into the container. TFTC

I keep forgetting about this cache as its green icon is hidden under the Wherigo on the geo map. Today I was looking for something on the way home from comp tennis and noticed this on my list but still found it hard to see, had to enlarge the map considerably.
Finding the carpark was easy and parking, well I accidentallly parked right next to GZ but I didn't realise that until I checked the GPS.
Finding the cache was fairly quick as it had to be there but exactly where?
Getting home, hmmm .......only Left turn out of this place so that sent me on a completely different route but that took me to another cache so all good.

The family has a wedding to attend on the Central Coast today (no none of our Geokids). As a result I'm not sure how easy it will be to grab a cache up there. So decided to snaffle one close to home while I was out fuelling up the *Family Chariot*.
As it turned out, we had time to grab another as we needed to kill about 45 minutes between the wedding and the reception.
So, that's two for the day - and no, I'm not getting a third one close to midnight - we'll just drive home.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Maybe early Saturday morning when all the netballers are here isn't the best time to grab this one. But they're not in the car park, thankfully.
Knew where it had to be, but the blighter blends in well and it took a few looks at the right spot to actually make a sighting.
Grabbed, signed and back for the replace.
