A few finds somewhere not yet cached before. Napped on the train after work before alighting after dark. Lets get off here. Nice find, TFTC Jackscruff.
Nice back story. First searched in more troll like hiding places but no luck. Eventually found slightly less in theme than expected. Either way, a smiley, tftc! Signed with DK.
My first cache in a long while and my daughter's first ever find! ...well, as much as a 7 month old can find a cache from her pram It's nice walking around here, haven't crossed this bridge in a long while. All is well, cheers!
This was a quick find before farewelling YGAT and setting off for Greenwich via the track along the creek to pick up an AL bonus cache there.Nice hide, thanks Jackscruff.
Checked this cache as geodog and I walked through Smoothey Park to Wollstonecraft Station this morning.The cache is dry inside and out.I cleared the rubbish out of the container.Geocaches are not places to leave your junk!
The gps was very wrong but found it in the end by looking at the logs ?? love the spot.TFTC
I tried the Sidetracked multi and failed. So I waited and come back!A new LGA!In Sydney for a few days before heading to Canberra for the Capital Geobash. Today was all about catching public transport to pick up new LGAs.Jackscruff, I found Smoothey Park Troll today. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.
Enjoyed the walk through the park to find the cache as hard to find somewhere close to park. TFTC
Its right there, where youd expect a troll to be.Nice container and hide.I should really save this for another future date, but its so hard to resist following up a DNF with a Found!
Good hide, this was my first geocache ever, you had me walking across the bridge so many times trying to find it. Wrote in the log book under Nirraic.
I walk here all the time and have never thought to suss for cache activity. Nice to be back. TFTCSlib
Made a quick check of the cache after the last finder's log.The cache is in the correct position where it was originally placed. Thanks Pyobeon for helping with this cache. Please replace the cache exactly where you found it, with the camo.
Quick find. Cache in plain sight with no camo. And in a place where it didnt really fit and couldnt be camouflaged. I placed it a meter higher and improvised some camo. CO should check. SL TNLN TFTC.
Found It!A bridge over a bridge. Found the cache under a bridge and then walked over a bridge. But which bridge?TFTC
A lovely walk through the park for a little off road adventure and a quick find. TFTC.
Happy to say the Van Den Bosch family have found it after thirty minutes of looking. A great spot though and we're really happy when we found it!
oooh, took me a moment but we got there. had to replace the camo and added a little more. very fun, TFTC!
While on a walk through the Smoothey Park bushland I stopped to check on this cache.Everything is in good condition.PLEASE REPLACE THE CACHE CAMO when you return the cache to its hiding spot.

Another train trip from Newey with BillHill531 targeting the Nth Shore Line. Love these suburbs. So many bush walks to go on.TFTC JackScruff.
Today was the last day of my visit from Brisbane and I had a couple of caches I wanted to find on the Greenwich Peninsula so did a walk of 12km around here and Berry Island from Wollstonecraft Station.
This was the first one and a quick and easy find. I really loved the bushwalk down the creek. Tftc

A nice and peaceful spot with a nice view over the creek, cache is all good
Today after parkrun at centennial park I decided to head across the harbour via the train to get 1 of the last 2 LGAs that I have left in and around Sydney. I came to lane cove LGA and found a few caches in and around the area.
Thanks for the cache

Fifth day of our trip and we have left the Rutherglen Mega and are now leaving Sydney after a short stay, still heading North. But as we are departing Sydney, there is still time to grab a few geocaches.
We only had 3 car stops and got 5 geocaches. But if I have planned it correctly and the LGA borders are correct on my map, that should have been 5 geocaches in 5 new and completely different LGAs. Including 2 of the oldest Sydney geocaches, not bad in only 3 stops.
This was the first find and the girls were lookout while I went Troll hunting. He must have been out and we only found spiders.
Thanks for the cache Jack Scruff

Quick find here after a delightful walk up the trail beside the gurgling creek! TFTC Jackscruff - glad to find another of your caches!
Great find, and would not of found it without a girl who stumbled across and gave us an extra hint. Thankyou and thankyou to the owner, for making this very creative cache
Looked here and there but no troll today. Was very slippery on the stones so make sure not to slip and fall.
Found after a gym sesh down the road. So peaceful and cool here this morning. TFTC!
Found it on my way back from a day in chatswood, passed it without signing a few times this week as I didn’t have a pen, sighed as I saw the pencil in there already TFTC
A perfect day for a stroll in relatively civilised bushland.
OK it takes quite a bit to get this city girl into any bushland .........
.... but the sun was shining and there seemed to be a decent trail. It turned out to be a bit muddy - and I was glad I'd left my Jimmy Choos back at the ranch - but I encountered no bugs, snakes, spiders, feral echidnas or rampant drop bears. Only the occasional brush turkey rustling suspiciously in the undergrowth.
Anyway ... I came. I saw... I conquered. Very nice spot for a cache. Thank you Jackscruff.

Found on a long walk home with my girl Essy! It was her first and hopefully not last geocache. Lovely spot, not a lot of traffic. Thanks for the cache!
First geocache with my dear Christine ️ a spontaneous find on a long walk home from one of my many reflective catch-ups with Christine
Sat, parked up in the van in Eastview street and waited for this heavy rain to subside.
I made my way down the lower pathway witnessing the footpath turn into a river and actual waterfall down the steps.
The river was flowing healthily upon my approach I visualised where it would be hidden and within 5m was confirmed the correct guess of hide, thanks Jackscruff

Left the house before 6am this morning to drop the geodog off for a dental procedure at the vet in North Willoughby.
This means I have the whole day to pass, geocaching, until I can collect her. I hit the pavements.
A beautiful park. I guess this area is high density living….for trolls!
