Description
Truth be known, I had cable tied the cache to tree in anticipation of a GC Multi. Damn, there is a way point of another GC Multi nearby that I had long done an forgotten. Rather than waste a cable tie, here you go, another cache in a nice spot on the Weston Park peninsula. Weekend finders can treat themselves to an ice cream at the nearby kiosk.

when I parked the car my heart sank as there were some picnickers close to GZ. after taking some photos of Kangaroos and the sunset, I realised that there was still a little bit of dense vegetation between us and I safely and quickly found the cache.
beautiful evening.

Third time lucky. The reason I didn't spot this one first time around is that the zip tie seems to have snapped, and we found it laying on the ground. After a quick sign, I hung it back on a branch, but I don't know if it will fall off again. TFTC

Crystal Warrior and I were out for a walk. We pass by regularly and today was the day to find it! Thanks Agent Basil
I went on my usual Friday afternoon cache trip and found myself close enough to this one for a short detour. Once I had the right numbers it was a quick find.
Thanks

Lunch time dash with Fitzy to grab our daily caches. I haven't been to Weston Park for many years and love that there are so many caches out here.

Quick and easy find on a lunchtime run around these parts. Nice view too. Windy but I'm really happy that they've cleared up the shores like they have here

Having done a similar one nearby this was an easy find. A great park for picnics and Bbqs very pleasant.
Spotted quickly but had to wait till the nearby fishermuggle gave up checking us out and sat down and returned to his fishing before dealing with it.
Such a busy track on a Sunday morning with cyclists, dog walkers and pram pushers in abundance.
Thanks.

GCA 1250 - 14025. Found this one while on a mission grabbing some new-ish caches around Canberra.
Avoiding the dog-walkers it was a nice quick find at GZ
Thanks Agent Basil !

On a pleasant Meander to the tip of the park, I just had to grab this one while I was there! The wind was up today, making the water was pretty choppy and brown, but still a great vantage point to look out from.
Thanks Agent Basil!

I wandered about a little before I made the find. I nice place for a cache. TFTC Agent Basil.

Found on a beautiful Canberra morning to make the most of a period of no college assignments! After doing the nearby meander, we walked over here for a pretty quick find. Lovely little spot in what is, a fantastic park in Canberra! Nice to see another well mannered GCA cache! TFTC AB!

We had to go to the city today for some errands, so decided to grab a cache or two on the way home. Found a convenient park and after a short stroll, soon had the cache in hand.
Thanks Agent Basil.

Was heading Northside, so decided to pop in on this one on the way! Always a nice spot here. I was a bit concerned about the Muggle factor on a Sunday, but the coast was clear. The only 'muggles' were the Cache owner and co who appeared out of nowhere, just as I was back on the path! Thanks for the mini wonder AB!

#GA1053 - 15:55; After a shopping expedition with the geohoney, we took a scenic route home via a couple of newer GCA caches. Collected the first in Callum Brae, then over here to Weston Park for this one. Made my way to GZ for a quick find which didn't leave me wondering where the cache might be. TFTC Agent Basil

Double point week for dragonZone players, so what better time to head out for this one. Made my way over to GZ and after a close examination, the little bugger was soon spotted. Log signed, cache replaced and I was off for a wander.....which I should have done first. Oh well, not too bad a day for it.
Thanks AB....
