went to Lithgow for the day and decided to pop into the park to find this cache.
i followed the hunt and used the coordinates but could not find it.
I had a guy watching me and I had to educate him on what I was doing. lol.
started to rain and I ran out of time.
i will have to go back again in the future.

This was a quick, fun find on our way home from a weekend caching our way from Coolah to Mudgee/Windeyer/Sofala and on to Bathurst and Orange. We used the helpful hint, Samuel grabbing it in seconds, all surprisingly dry.... TFTC!

So I suppose I have to admit that this is our second time here, but I don’t know if you should count the first time as there were far to many people to really have a look. So back today and late in the evening where there was only a sole dog walker in the park. Had a sit down close to the GZ, not finding anything where I thought....... hm.... then one last feel around to doubble check and bang!! Another find!!! Yay thanks for the hunt

Stopped by on our way home from out west and had to try again to find this as last time we were here there were to many muggles around to do some real searching. With no one around at 8:30 at night we made a quick find. Thanks very much

Today the park was empty as you would expect, armed with a great hint from the CO I found the cache this time.
Don't bother with the border or the rose garden bed.
Thanks for the cache.
 
I gave this a shot in the rain and dark but count find anything. I did notice a tile not fixed but found nothing under it.

Well more a case of could not look, I have tried a couple dozen times to look for this but this park is so busy that it has always been impossible to do this discreetly, beside the only spot I can see to hide this would involve dismantling the capping stone of the border wall, if that is the case, this should be archived as the council would take a very dim view of this sort of thing and we might end up with the same situation as with Blacktown council and have geocaching banned entirely.

Beautiful park and the roses are blooming, no problem locating this but the coords are out by about 10m, follow the hint and you'll be fine.

We visited Lithgow today to find at least one GCA cache. We had unsuccessfully search for GA2004 so hoped ae could locate this one.

We checked the hint and spotted a possible hide sight. A quick investigation and we had the container in hand. The contents were in good condition. On checking our GPS it was indicating that we were 10m from the published oordinates.

Thanks for this ICEM cache Blingg. We own 10 ICEM caches in Tasmania and like the idea of a trail of ICEM caches around Australia.
