We went out on a little family outing before lunch to find some trigs and gather ammo for shooting at battleships! This one was found by Oliver, but was too wet to sign. Sorry we didn't bring any replacements with us.....

Accurate coordinates and a good hint enabled us to make a quick find of this well hidden cache. However on opening the container we found it half full of water and the logbook was saturated to the stage of being unusable. We drained out the water and dried the container with some hand towel. We left a small replacement log in a sealed bag. It was not obvious how the water got into the container but the CO might like to check.

Thanks for this cache Alnic we really enjoyed our visit to this area even though the wind was very strong and cold.

On a caching run up the thin black line into the Blue Mountains with alnic39, ZoNic66, lachnic62, phlphotos and JJCC. A total of ten caches were found on this trip and thanks to alnic39 for placing this series. Cache and log are in good condition.

Decided to go on a cache run in the mid Blue Mountains with ZoNic66, lachnic62, teamMerlin and Splitty Miller JJCC with the aim of knocking off this series. Been an interesting week with the weather. Even today the weather had been variable with some showers, drizzle & some dry patches. It was a relatively quick find it but it was made a little easier having the CO chaperoning his 2 children ZoNic66 & lachnic62, though he tried not to help. We all signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the cache & series alnic39

Sorry about using the cut and paste on these caches

#GA2931 - 12:20; The original plan was to head west to collect a few zones for Sol de lune and I to complete the caching centroid mission, but with the announcement of big bonus points, the plan was changed and we are headed to the Blue Mountains instead. Closing in on Woodford when we pulled in off the highway, parked the geomobile and took a short walk to GZ for yet another quick find and sign. TFTC alnic39 Very HappyClan Cerberus

Up in the mountains again with LuckyL10n and heading for Katoomba tonight. This is the first in the Paint It Black Series for this visit and once in the GZ area the cache was another quick find. Log was signed and we then hit the road again.

Thanks Alnic...this was the series that enticed up here again.
