We did as suggested and parked the car before walking down to start the series at #1, along with ilook4geo. The fire trail is good walking and accessing some of the caches is a little more challenging terrain, but is rated well. It is just such a pity the caches are not being maintained.Each was an interesting hide and an interesting container and we can see a lot of work and thought had been put in originally.This one needs a new log. Thanks for the series go to Importunity.

Started the series at this end with goingplaces2. Only a few muggles were out today (some with dogs) but all caches were found without too much difficulty. Needs a new log please. TFTC.

This scared the crap outta me, as i came face to face with it. Nicely played. Is this a Scouts song, as it sure sounds like one, but i dont remember it from many years ago.
To the CO, i think a maintenance run might be in order, as most need some kind of loving, but i cannot remember exactly which ones. TFTC

After a couple of days of work at Sydney Olympic Park I am staying in Sydney the rest of the week at the outlaws in Pennant Hills. Remote working is fine but wanted the opportunity to explore a bit as well and this series fit the bill. A patch of bush to explore and a series of caches in a loop to collect. So I jumped in the car and eventually made it to Oxley Park.

Up and along and to a spot that did have a nice outlook. Aah that looks like a likely spot and sure enough the cleverly designed cache was there. This is more like it - a FP for this one.

We decided on a day of caching in the more rural side of Sydney for Easter Saturday, so with Mighty Minions, Banj5150, eemiaj and barefootjeff, we cached our way from Mount Colah to Kenthurst in great weather for a change, finding 20 caches and a handful of trigs, and without conceding a DNF, although we came close... A great day out, a sequel is in the works!
The 'old woman series' was first. Nice hide here, and a great container to match, we all decided this object needed checking, MM spotted the hide in the end... TFTC!
 
16-Apr-22
After pitching an idea to meet up and do some caches around here and over near Kenthurst, Banj5150, Mighty Minions, barefootjeff, Me and my dad all met up down here at the start of this series. Nice series to wake me up after I got rudely awakened by my alarm at 5:50am.

After our plans to go caching in a different area today fell through because of the track being closed . Lee737, Samuel737 ,barefootjeff, Banj5150 , eemiaj and I met up to tackle this series and a few others around kenthurst today . I loved the theme for this series and I tried to remember it and sing the song as I went around. I def forgot a few bits but I had fun anyway . As the day went on we all seemed to take it in turns making a find, which was great .loved the creativity and how you followed the theme. Thanks for the cache Importunity tnln replaced as found sl

Having found the first of the series on March 7th, today I came back with Eagle Eyed Monkey Girl for the remaining 8 caches and a small side track to K9-Capers.
It was an enjoyable walk along the fire trail.

Number 3 was quickly spotted by Eagle Eyed Monkey Girl, but she kept her mouth shut, knowing my dislike for creepy crawlies. So as I came down and looked up, I got a bit of a scare, much to the amusement of my companion.

Great cache, thanks Importunity!

#6769 I'm in Sydney for a belated Xmas get-togther with some family. After spending most of the last few days eating and floating in a pool as the temperature soared, today was a drizzly but pleasant at 20C, so it was just perfect for geocaching.

Oh yeah, this one's a bit nasty if that sort of thing is, well, not your thing. Well constructed !

Thanks Importunity
