Lovely spot & this had us going round & round. Luckily after a persistent search cache was found.

Log seems very full.

12-Mar-23
(12 of 15 today - including 3 Adventure Labs)

After some numbers today to keep the Caching Calendar Gods happy, so decided to head south to the area near Mount Kembla.
A very pleasant, yet sobering day, with many caches referencing the mining tragedy of 1902.

Found almost everything I went for, including a few with recent DNFs. That's always satisfying.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Well, that's an interesting sculpture.
I was a little worried that the last log was a DNF, and also about the number of muggles walking past.

Finally got a break in the passing parade and went for the spot I expected it to be. Luckily, I just happened to be at the correct angle first up to spot something worth further investigation. Made the grab.

Gotcha!
Not sure if there is supposed to be another component to the hide, but at least I had both camo and log.

Completed signing duties and replaced as found.
Now to retrace my steps.

A favourite here for the series.

Sneaky little hide and nice work on the container. Very pleasant path here despite the history. TFTC!
 
28-Dec-21
FINALLY! This stretch of caches has haunted us for a long time, but we got there in the end.
This is the 3rd or 4th attempt at this one. Started where it actually is, then moved elsewhere, then came back to it. TFTC
 
05-Dec-21
Great job on the container and it's hide Jet@GZ.
Thanks for the challenge
 
23-Nov-21
Tftc! We liked the container
 
Was convinced this would be an easy find. Had a few good stretches of time with no muggles. I need a t-shirt that says "I tried to find Memorial Pathway 1 but all I got was this stupid NSW Rock"
 
09-Oct-21
Found. Didn't bring a pen for the log sorry

Great camo, loved it. Tftc
 
10-Jan-21

Don't come of a morning as there are so many walkers it is like Pitt St.

We suck at this but we'll be back. No luck today.
 
20-Sep-20
The first find for the day was week earned. I almost walked off after trying to search with my fingers, while eyeing of the wasp on its small nest above.
I eventually found the right angle to spot the hiding location.
A nice little camp.
Thanks for the cache.
 
12-Sep-20
Had to search for a while to get CIH. Chatted with the neighbour. OCW Brewmaker. TFTC
 
12-Sep-20
Got down low and had the local neighbour interested. He and we were impressed with the camo. I guess he might surprise a few seekers in the future, but he is very friendly and good for a chat. Great walkway and historical series. TFTC
 
31-Aug-20
Another quick find on the memorial pathway, luckily there was not another soul in sight so I got down and low and made the find with my eyes. I love the container as well! Thank you

Dnf. Spent a fair bit of time on it.
 
21-Dec-19
So many walking muggles I just couldn't get a good go at it. Down on all fours for a quick look but it was very quick.
Next time.
 
16-Nov-19
TFTC! Our 400th find!
 
10-Nov-19
A little tricky. But fortunately not too much surface area to check. TFTC
 
27-Oct-19
Headed out with Mizmaz this afternoon to grab a few local caches that'd popped up while I was on holidays. Parking at the eastern end we enjoyed a nice walk around this trail.

Got this one after having to check nearby spots as we didnt get it on the first feel.
Thanks
 
27-Oct-19
Unexpected invite from Mr Rat to join him today had me ticking off this series bit sooner than I’d planned. Still, the company and second set of eyes made for a pleasant and collaborative stroll along the pathway. Clue kept us glued to an obvious structure and eventually the trickiest of the lot was located by touch. Glad that’s all we felt Very Happy
 
24-Oct-19
One log stood out as a great hint. Not exactly what I was expecting after all the others. Thanks for the little series.
 
09-Oct-19
Found while bird watching with Gronk and Juno. Found the 2nd time on the way back.
 
28-Sep-19
Took advantage of the day off by clearing out more of my 50km radius. I put a significant dint in the map, finding 26 caches in total! Thanks to all the Cache Owners for their caches.

An easy find on this impressive structure. TFTC
 
28-Sep-19
Out caching and taking advantage of the beautiful weather.
At gz a structured. Signed and placed as found. TFTC
 
19-Sep-19
A quick find on a not so good day weatherwise, but as a workingday cache eveery cache counts!

On the way home this arvo I decided to pick up a couple of these freshly minted caches.
A very interesting area with a lot of sadness too.
I loved the miniature rail and the diesel loco close by the trail. Another bonus was to see part of the remains (sleepers and rail plates) that have been left as a reminder on the spur line that one ran into the mine site.
A straight forward find with a muddy knee Smile Did the signing and put back as found. TFTC Jet
 
14-Sep-19
Decided to get out and about and walked up from home- a great walk. Not too much trouble here and nearish to where I used to have a multi. TFTC!
 
13-Sep-19
Short diversion on the way to work, cache was quickly in hand.

Cheers
