Fun cache, the container its self is a little damaged but I did the best I could with the help of a ziplock back to get it back in place and safe.
Super strong personality! V damaged container bit contents staying ok somehow. Tftc!
Very damaged. Bit nervous leaving it how it is, concerned lid will slip off (whats left of it) and the contents will fall out. Left it best I could with how it is
Container seems broken and stuck. Managed to grab and return the bag with log book though, tftc!
A nice quick find! Container lid is smashed and needs some TLC. Also watch for spider's TFTC
TFTC, beautiful views especially in the late afternoon of the harbour.Lid is cracked, and one clip is quite loose. Sistema 1523 if anyone has a spare lid.Thanks to the previous logger who put a bag over the logbook.
The etrex pointed across to GZ and we sighted the cache from 20m away. Still hard to extract. Cache lid is starting to crack due to being in the weather. SL and replaced as found. TFTC Mr, Mrs & Little Miss Nilbog_AusThanks for bringing us to this nice location.
Couldn't find it last time cause was looking at thw wrong height Came back and found it today. Very nice weather and great view both at the geozone and down at the oval.TFTC
Stunning views from the top. Were fortunate to have a harbour city along with many interesting localities in all directions.Now my find #199. With five TBs in tow: Cheetah, Harmony Smurf, Canadian Flag, Dosenjger and Dog Tag (with his green soldier tugging the tag all the way). All hopping onboard on my motorcycle journeyMessage sent to CO that top lid now has a small hole. Used one of my spare plastic bags to protect the logbook
Found, with shaneo58, We came down from Newcastle to do some caches along the northern line. near Wollstonecroft and Waverlyt. Today started of poring down rain and a bit nippy, but turned out OK by the time we got off the train. Found nearly right away. Fantastic vies from here and exelent walkways.Signed log and Cache replaced as found.**Thanks For The Cache** Nilbog_Aus.This makes the 8th cache of 12 for today making a grand total of 4216 at 11:05AM on this Thursday the 28th of September in the Year 2023
I enjoyed the view from this cache, and found it pretty quickly. One of the clips on the container has broken off. TFTC!
Last weekend Torz was in Brisbane, this weekend I’m down visiting her in Sydney. Cool view point! Thanks for bringing us here. TFTC found with Torz.
super fun hiding spot, had to do a little bit of a climb but i do have very short arms haha. really nice spot, keepin a eye out for those aliens Tftc
One of the most crazy caches I have ever seen... we couldn't get it when we saw it... well at the end we could.
What a view! Saw the cache from one approach but couldn’t reach so took another route and CiH! good spot TFTC
Found It!
A quick find here. Looks like a good spot to land a UFO I guess!

Meandering around the suburbs, finding a few geocaches and putting some smileys on the map.
We have seen some amazing sights today, we came across another fantastic view of the harbour here.

Holidaying in Sydney for the weekend (seeing Billy Bragg tonight!) and decided to walk along the harbour from the bridge west. Great to pick up a few caches on the way! Thank you for your service!

Very clear location but it still took me some time before I spotted the hide. I’m retrospect I can’t understand why, but once I saw it, there was no chance it couldn’t have been the hide. So a quick sign since it was muggles free in the area, and then I was on my way to the next one.
I’m trying to get to a 100 logs before leaving Australia, so I had to power through at least 20 hides today to not leave too much to do on my last day. 35 degree heat towards the end but I had an early start and managed to have a pretty nice day after all, with a total of 21 geocaches found! Now I need 8 logs tomorrow and I should have reached 100.
A big thank you to Mr, Mrs and little Miss Nilbog_Aus for creating and maintaining this geocache, so that the rest of us can entertain our hobby. The log is signed as Bubbles.

Visiting from Brisbane, I found this cache easily while on an enjoyable walk around Balls Head with friends. Very strong magnetic! Wonderful view so a fp. Tftc
An interesting dug out below here, a short search was had and the cache was soon found without a muggle insight. Cache is all good here.
Today I headed to Sydney for short meeting I needed to attend, with the rest of the day free before my flight home I decided to make my way around caching the north shore before heading back to the city to catch the train. Total of 26,000 for the day.
Thanks for the cache

Great view from here. A quick find, but missed the hint and had to retrieve the cache!
Argh!!! My initial sweep found nothing and annoyingly there were some workman nearby finishing off their lunch. I must have waited 20 minutes for them to move along and then couldn’t find the cache! I decided to leav it and move on and as I walked away I looked back and could see the cache!!
Log signed and replaced as found.

Found and logged with OASIS X Wandersoc as the last find of our outing! Great hide, TFTC!
Dropped a couple of the family off to watch Mary Poppins at the Lyric Theatre and decided to do some caching with Gundrills.
Just a shame we didn’t come through the day as the landing site would be great to see through the day.

A nice walk at night with geowife macka4867 looking at the night lights. Thought we’d do a few in the area. Great place for a cache. Thank you .
Completely waterlogged sadly, possible that a new container is needed with better seal.
Have been curious about this cache name for many years and finally today I got to tick it off my list. Logbook, even the temporary scrap of paper, absolutely soaked but managed to make my mark and return as found.
A gorgeous day for geocaching. After months of rain, it hit 28C today and we took advantage of the outdoors. We thoroughly enjoyed our walks around this area and all the gorgeous views.
My son and I made the trek from Waverton Park to the UFO landing pad before we quickly realized we weren't in the right spot. So we made our way to the correct spot, and as the location drew nearer, I spotted the cache from afar. Never had that experience before, so it was fun to run straight towards it, and TADAAAA.... pull it out of its hiding spot!
Geokid happily made a swap and we drunk in the gorgeous view.
The log was soaked through and needs replacement, so I left a piece of paper to help others, as a temporary measure until the logbook can be replaced.

Spectacular views! Removed a marble the log is soaked after all the rain I will try and come back to place a new one unless the owner gets to it first. TFTC
Cache was found. Beautiful view. Unfortunately it is wet so couldn't sign log. Some maintenance is needed.TFTC
My last day in Sydney so I planned a crazy geocaching route around some coves and bays. Nice bush walk here. Thanks for the cache
Nice spot, log book very wet so not able to fully sign but have a photo if needed!
Put back as was after draining water from canister.

This must have moved or my coords were off last time.
Today a nice quick find. And yes this is a fabulous repurposing of an industrial past.

Found it. I dropped it accidentaly and had to go find it. Made it more interesting than it needed to be. Great spot. Tftc.
Park is really good, like how they converted the old silos to garden features. Nice cache, quick find first for the day. All set up for a great day. Nice view too
One of the last ones I hadn't found in my immediate area, yayyy!
Found on a nice after work walk with hilly, tftc!

A little midday walk around Balls Head to collect the caches there. This was the first one on the map to target.
The landing pad was easy enough to find. Probably. But my shyness of muggles took the best of me and I tried to look more like taking photos and enjoying the views than deliberately searching for something. This spot would either need an early morning run or some camo to make the search less obvious when you're on your own. Perhaps I need to don a high-viz vest and take some spanners to look like it's all good to act odd here...
The views, however, were rewarding themselves and worth taking in.
Few checks here and there but the container remains hidden. On another day, then...
