Passing by with the team this morning on a quick GA cache run. After parking the car we walked over to GZ and spotted the camo as we approached. With the cache in hand we all signed the very damp logbook then replaced as found. Both cache and log are in average condition. Thanks for the cache ack son of hack.

On a short drive from home via North Richmond to Kurmond and home again this was the second of two GA caches found. Parked safely on Comleroy Rd and walked back to the corner. GZ was reporting accurately and the cache was quickly found. Retrieved, signed log and replaced

We drove all the way out to Kurmond to buy some trees for Zhaoy and then went to explore the Upper Colo for a secret mission. Stopped in here for a quick grab. Little wet but dried it out best I could. RIP acko.

TFTC. It was a bit wet in there, but the log is surviving okay.

Well, was that well hidden!!

Obvious in the spot the Co placed it....but with a couple of Autumn seasons since it was last found, things were a tad difficult today. However, I thought it would be there...and after a bit of coxing, the cache was soon in hand. Happy with that.

Thanks for another one ASOH....

Plenty of water washaway signs at the GZ, but the Cache was firmly in place ... and though some water in the container, the Log remains dry.

Out for the day with pjmpjm mainly to do the "Striving Towards Blue Mts Power Trail". It turned out to be a very good day for us with plenty of finds.
This was an easy find once we figured out the clue and located GZ, The cache was in good condition and quite dry after all the recent rains.
Thanks for the cache.

This was one of more than twenty logs that rogerw3 and I made while travelling down Bell's Line of Road this afternoon, from Bell to North Richmond. We found mainly GCAs but also two GC traditionals.

Our main effort was to complete the 'Striving Towards Blue Mts Power Trail' in one afternoon . . . and we nearly succeeded. We found 13 of 14 and DNFed one that now seems almost certainly to have been muggled. (At the end of the day we talked to a previous finder who thinks we checked the correct place, in vain.)

No. 4 initially puzzled us, but once again rogerw3 found the 'clue' and so we made the find quickly after all.

The container & contents were nice and dry. TNLNSL.

Many thanks to the CO for the cache and for the entire power trail series of caches.

Coming back from Dargans Creek canyon, this one beckoned me to stop. Nicely hidden and this spot was not too busy on a drizzly Sat. afternoon. Another good hide on this power trail.

Another qick stop on way to Lithgow Very Happy

Our first STBMPT cache as we headed up to Lithgow for a walk. It does seem a bit of a busy spot as there were 2 Telstra vans there getting ready for the day's work but it didn't take us long to find the cache and sign the log. TFTC, nice to see a decent sized cache

We'd had a big day caching, doing Salvation Jane, C from V and others, but we had a bit of time to kill before Canary had to pick his boy up from soccer. So we did a few others in the area. I hadn't planned on this one, though, since I mostly don't do GCA, but Canary pushed me out the car and told me I had thirty seconds to find it, or I'd be running behind again. So I found it, quick smart. Thanks

On a work day shortened by a sick son, I made a quick park and grab here.

I remeber going up this road many times to my parents old house in the HUnter.

TNLNSL. TFTC.

An easy find, but there is a lot of traffic near this spot, so you need to watch out.

Thanks Very Happy
