As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Found on a visit to Manly while visiting from NZ. Quick find after finding the right way to get to the cache without taking a swim. TFTC.
 
17-Jul-11
Outwith ZuesRules caching around Manly. There were dolphins in the bay this afternoon which made finding this and the other caches in the area very memorable. Great views would like to return here and have a picnic sometime and watch the boats. Thanks

One of 9 today! Out with MoonPie10 for the weekend.
 
09-Jul-11
We decided to head to Sydney for a few days R&R with a side of caching. Well more like a side of R&R. 3 Fun filled days later we had logged 54 caches and seen some of the best the Northern beaches have to offer. A great escape all round.

We headed out again after some dinner. The wind was howling and the air icy so we were motivated to keep moving. The cache was found without a hitch and we managed to enjoy the view for a few minutes before heading back to the car to defrost. TFTC antpadgem. [1037]

A quick find on the way to Little Manly Cove & the Geocaching NSW Event. Great scenic location - just had to avoid a few muggles. TNLNSL TFTC
 
26-Jun-11
After the Spit to Manly event, I dropped by this cache before heading home. The elevated point provides a great vantage point for watching the yachts sailing on the harbour below. Very jealous of the residents surrounding GZ. Briefly meet Team Budda as they were completing their log. Nice location and great camo on the container.

Found after the caching event at little manly cove. A reasonably quick find. TFTC

Found this during the Spit Bridge to Manly walk with Team Canary, Toriaz and a bunch of other cachers. We had stopped at Manly for a bite to eat before arriving at the event, so this was the first cache of the day we did in our little mountains group, and found by ourselves. A nice easy find. Thanks
 
26-Jun-11
Our eigthth find for the day, on the Spit Bridge to Manly walk, and the only one our little Mountains group actually found Smile. Nice to have a quick find in a spot with a great view before heading to the event itself.

Thanks.

Another lovely view!!! TFTC
 
07-Jun-11
We found it - actually my fiance Harvest found it - I was trying to look at the coordinates and she went off looking for it. It is our first Geocache - hopefully the first of many. We can report in the container there was a half a sweet wrapper and a handful of shiny shapes. We left a piece of cord in a figure of eight knot. Very windy and cold day - but still a great view and beautiful day.

Nice quick find while on a bike trip round Manly. No trackables in the cache though. TFTC.

Last cache of the day, it was getting pretty dark -- fortunately I had some luck.

Hi Sad Happy Easter. We didnt find your GC, we spent at least 10 mins looking with 6 of us. We will try again but we think it was taken because it was a small area and your hint was helpful we checked the cave underneath the area but it wasn't there. It was a beautiful view though and we all had fun looking for your GC.

The cache was a little exposed so I have re hidden it with a bit of bark

Beautiful place to watch the sunset, found the cache just before daylight was gone. This our last night in Sydney and Australia ( and as such our last cache ), tomorrow we'll be heading back to cold and snowy Germany. We had fantastic three weeks in Australia and surely we'll be back one day. Greetings, Malo-Hunters

On my trip around the world I first visited the States and travelled from there to Australia.
Now I'm staying in Sydney for some days exploring the town and caching.
Geocaching can take you to spots you would never visit and so I used my trip to find some caches in every state and country.
Thank you for hiding this cache and greetings from Germany

Found this one on a rainy day so view was not as clear as it should have been - but would never have known about this amazing spot otherwise. No trackables in the cache just a logbook and pencil. TNLN TFTC

A wonderful view that I would never have found otherwise. I would have stayed longer if the weather had not been so rough TFTC

Thanks for another great Antpadgem cache TNLN
 
28-Aug-10
First cache found! A bit of a search as the great views were distracting. The clue helped us in the end. TNSL
 
28-Aug-10
Thanks Antpadgem for showing us a wonderful spot we never knew about. Brought our fish and chips and sat and took in the beautiful view. The nearby building is a bit of an eyesore, how do some of these things ever get planning approval.
 
22-Aug-10
At the end of the day (almost dark) we tried to get one more cache at Manly, and we did it, without difficulty.
Got a bug! Big Grin

Cool view from there.
We had to walk fast, to catch the ferry, that we seen arriving from Sydney.

17-Aug-10
This was an easy cache to find, yet well hidden. As promised, lots of fabulous views. I enjoyed the walk from the Manley Ferry to this site.
There were supposed to be trackables there but I didn't find any. I left "The 9 Ball Traveler" for someone to find and move on to another cache. TFTC.
 
08-Aug-10
Nice views towards the sea. In the back the most ugly unit block ever seen.
Gave us by the way all the shadow covering the sun.
 
02-Aug-10
First find on own! Great?
 
23-Jul-10
First find. Great location. Even on a gloomy day it gets you out to locations you may not be aware of.
 
23-Jul-10
First time I have got to this part of Manly - worth the visit, even though in the dark at 0530 I could not see any boats - still worth the visit even then, thanks.
 
17-Jul-10
thanks for sending us to a beautiful place we've never been too : )

Great Spot,,Great View
 
26-Jun-10
We searched for 15 mins before it was found and my sister managed to haul herself out of the bushes. I recommend not battling your way down to the cave as it is hidden quite obviously up the top.
 
23-Jun-10
On a day trip to Manley I also found a couple of caches. This was the first one and it was found very easily. The cache is located at a very beautiful site.

OUT: TB.
