Found It!A surprisingly quick find here once I found the way into GZ. Another one of those spots that makes me wonder what you were doing out here when you found this place!TFTC
What with bush bashing and rock climbing I felt like a monkey but at least it was easy once I reached the cave TFTC
oh my god, i found the hiding spot so quickly but because im dumb and misinterpreted the picture and because my GPS wouldnt settle i disregarded this spot and kept walking. my GPS was lost, I was lost, i walked past the cache like 4 seperate times without realising it ;-; super cool spot, TFTC!!
Found on an impromptu geocache while on a planned playdate at the nearby bike track. Unfortunately we forgot the pen so had to go back to the car then return to sign the log. Such a noob!. Tftc
#13284 12:32A few new caches to be found this morning.Using the waypoint from a previous finder, it was an easy walk-in and, after emptying all my pockets , a slither sitdown to the cacheA great height and fantastic views.TFTC Googlehihihi
Such a perfectly fitting rock! And the views were pretty nice too. Great way to mark our turn around point for this lovely walk around Northbridge. TFTC!!
No Monkeys seen on these rocks, just a grown man imitating one, hehehe
Really enjoyed the location and nice hide very late in the afternoon, thanks GHHH

Slither is a good description of what I did here. That and bush bash. I went in the hard way and found the easier way out. Better to walk down the obvious track and enter at S 33 48.750 E 151 13.577. Once at the right place and admiring the view on two feet rather than taking the conveniently-placed seat, I spotted the clever hide. But how to get down there and, more importantly, how to get back up. Slither was the way. A word of advice - remove phone from back pocket before slithering back up on your back. Cover fits perfectly. SL TFTC Cheers… Gaztek
I monkeyed around at these rocks and found the nicely hidden cache. OCW Brewmaker. TFTC GHHH
Note to the CO. These are the sort of hides we like. No ridiculous tree climbs, a sneaky hide in a cool cave, and great views from GZ.
Have a FP. TFTC

In the pursuit of this month's "Wheel of Challenges" (medium) souvenir, with the creation of a mini seven day streak, we headed over the Roseville Bridge to Northbridge to have a look at GHHH's latest offering.
Parked the geomobile at the recommended parking spot, at the end of Laguna Road, then followed the track and a bit of light bush bashing to reach the cache location. The family's chief puzzle solver sensibly remained above, while I stupidly took the most difficult approach to the cave as possible, initially descending below the "chair with a view", then ascending back up to finally reach the cave and GZ. I had misinterpreted the cache description, where it says "you can stand inside", thinking it was going to be much larger and therefore located lower down. But the statement made perfect sense after entering the cave, d'oh !
The cache was a nice quick find thanks to the CO's very generous spoiler photo, and the camo rock really is a perfect fit, so nice work finding that. TNLNSL (2TF after the FTF group), then replaced as found. I took the much easier, and obvious, exit back to the top. TFTC Googlehihihi.

After breakfast and a spot of coastal climbing, Bella noticed this one was offering *FTF* so we detoured over. Made a scratchy approach, admired the view and the impressive rocks. We're sure we spotted Kevin earlier but no monkeys rocking here. Bella slithered into the right spot. As usual, found an easier way out. Thanks GHHH.

After some shenanigans at the beach earlier in the morning, we noticed this one still hadn't been logged so rushed over to make the find.
