MOYA Blue Mountains National Park, New South Wales, Australia
By pjmpjm on 15-May-07. Waypoint GC12Y27

I was really looking forward to finding this cache. The first WP1 took us quite some time to find. Muggles decided to stop for a breather near us and our GPSr was leading us elsewhere. Eventually the muggles moved on and we looked at the cache photos. Some poking and prodding revealed WP1. It was then a nice walk to the relatively obvious GZ. But again. Whoa! What a view! This was quite special and I recommend this cache highly. Thank you pjmpjm!

So glad there was a pencil having left the resort without one. Now back to the resort before it gets too dark. Fantastic views and walk. TFTC

Set off fora walk in the park from the resort wed been staying in. The path out was straight forward but we took the harder path home. Good fun! We had to spread the search zone wider at WP1 as the coordinates were a bit off. Then found the cache after a bit of a scramble at the final location. Note that the message in WP1 is quite flimsy and the final container has lost all its clips. Added a marble to the contents. TFTC#quadranscentennial

TFTC and walk

Tftc - great little walk. A shame the Gladstone Pass is closed.

Out and about with theshoeiiz. Easy find in atop location Tftc

I woke up nearby and headed through to the trackhead in the dark with the intention of reaching Ground Zero for sunrise.. a read through past online logs had given me the impression that this is one of the better spots in the area to catch a stunning view, sunrise could only make it more stunning I thought.
The darkness would make it a bit of a harder task at waypoint 1 but using geosenses this turned out to be easier than expected. Setting my next coordinates in my device I headed off dodging puddles and spider webs as I went. Signage indicating certain trails were closed gave me pause for concern but as it turned out none of these closures on side tracks impeded my advance.
I arrived at GZ as light began to surround me. Turns out I timed things perfectly. I sat down on a rock shelf and chilled, drinking in the views and enjoying the sounds of life spring up all around me. Of course I also made sure to take a heap of photos to remind myself of this locations magic in the future.
Unfortunately cloud cover ruined my ideal shot of the sun peeking over the edge to the east but the vistas were indeed stunning nonetheless.
Eventually I turned my intention back to the coordinates I was seeking and made short work of the last few metres, uncovering the stash with no issues. Flicking through past logs in the book it seems this cache is enjoyed by more than just cachers, and I added my name at the end of them behind what looks like perhaps a park ranger to conclude my business here (only one clip remains intact but log and contents are dry despite recent rains).
Thanks for placing this one pjmpjm this is just the sort of cache I like. Especially since it gives me a welcome bit of fresh air and break from work while in the area. Cheers!

Certainly one of the best vistas in the mountains and absolutely alone on the tracks. Fun camo. Great cache all around. TFTC

From our earlier note we did not make it on our first attempt as we ran out of light. Today we set off on a warm morning for a nice ramble to the cache. It was excellent.

At GZ a brief scramble and we located the cache. The box is showing some wear now with only two of the four seals closing. It was dry and ok though.

Now for the interesting bit! It seems to be being found more by muggles than geocachers! They are writing nice notes on how they have come across it and I counted about 5 for this year alone.

Great to find such an aged cache doing nicely in the wild and having cameo muggle visitors! A favourite from me too. Thanks pjmpjm.

We arrived at the nearby hotel for 2 nights and wandered out to check this cache out. We managed to find WP1 but by this time the light had faded so we returned. The next day the rain kept us at bay! The walk looked good. Maybe next time! Thanks ....

A beautiful walk in the fading daylight. Long enough to get a decent workout in. TFTC.

Quite an easy find in the finish, although we sorted the coords quite some time ago. Cache is in good condition. Signed and replaced. Also dropped in a TB to celebrate our success. Thanks for placing the cache

Found today on a nice morning walk, Awesome little walk despite having to navigate our way through the resorts to find the trailhead, which just happened to be in the middle of the golf course...

We've been staying in the area here for a weekend each year for several years now, I've often looked at this cache, but the T4 bothered me while the kids were younger. I read everything carefully and thought we were all organised, and with a couple of hours spare this morning decided to go for it.
Expecting to be blocked by no entry signs we kept driving, and ended up parking in the resort, so hightailed it towards the trailhead, lucky the golf course was deserted, and with a young child with me probably looked like a guest! I don't actually think we saved any time or distance doing this in the end.....
Things were a little shaky at WP1, as the GPS was taking us 10m down the track, but a check of the hint and we were all set, and pleased to see GZ was only 500-odd metres off. When we returned, the GPS was displaying 2-3m at WP1....
GZ was a spectacular spot, my 10yr old had no trouble at all, and even climbed down to find the cache, which is in good condition, albeit with a broken lid latch. The container is feeling the elements, and is probably due for replacement, lest the great original logbook end up wet/soggy.
The return walk was a bit of a puffer, but nothing unexpected for the area, and the golf course groundsman didn't look twice at us emerging from the scrub!
Thanks for a great adventure, and for keeping such a great piece of local caching history going.... +1 FP

A multi along our planned bushwalk? Perfect! We made the slight detour out to GZ on our way down to Empress Falls. Perfect day for geocaching. TFTC!

This is the first cache I've logged in years, but I'm trying to get back in to the habit. Thanks for the inspiration!

Love it

22 days vacation in Australia, a big round trip around the red continent. Adelaide & Kangaroo Island, Darwin & Kakadu National Park & Yellow Waters, Alice Springs & Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, Port Douglas & Rainforest & Great Barrier Reef, Hamilton Island, Blue Mountains, Sydney - what a trip! It's been great, it's been exhausting, it's given us so many impressions of this country that we'll need another few weeks to process all of these.
Staying in the nearby hotel and having hiked to three sisters in the morning we were up for another hike in the afternoon. So we went of towards the waterfalls and this cache. It brought us to the expected place, but man, was that worth it! A really great view from here! And on our way back we came accross an echidna, what a great experience! This cache is well worth it, giving it a favo!
Thanks pjmpjm for placing and maintaining this cache!

Thanks!

A little hike with friends on a nice winter day without clouds! Very nice trail with a amazing view into the valley!!! TFTC

Lovely windy day nice walk and spectacular views ️thanks

Good

First multi cache I’ve ever found nice spot and nice walk

After being stuck inside for the last few days when the sun came out this afternoon I decided to go for this cache. Well as I got closer to the cache, it started to rain and got heavier and heavier. Found the cache (it is all dry and ok) and I had a good but wet walk. TFTC

Found this cache today after what I consider to be much more than “A moderately easy stroll” This hide certainly deserves the 4 star terrain rating as I nearly had a coronary on the way back out climbing the many stairs on the well made track. Both way point one and the final hide were easy to find and we were rewarded with magnificent views. A favourite from me but if your fitness is less than average be prepared for a strenuous hike, or take your time as it is well worth it. TFTC

Enjoyed the walk, not having done it before, and checked out both lookouts. A nice part of the world. Thanks for taking me there pjmpjm. Picked up a "Wood Geocoin" maybe left by Kurtz33 from Czech??

Had a great trek down here and caching assistant particularly enjoyed the subsequent assent. GZ is impressively scenic! Thanks for placing.

Wanted to share a video I took of Moya Point:

Thanks to the CO for bringing me out here. I would never have done it otherwise.

Lovely lovely lovely morning walk all by myself from Fairmont where I was staying, on my last day here in Sydney before heading back to Singapore. Tftc.

A very pleasant walk and a great LO. A clear and windless day made the last part easier for us. We clambered over to GZ and then made a short climbdown with our usual awkward style. Dan sighted a rock with a piece of tissue sticking out from under it. Yes, there was a smell. Fortunately not too strong. Unbelievably, the cache was hidden only 30cm away! We took it away a little to sign the log. The cache appreciated that. We took a TB that must have been waiting to move on for quite a while. It took us about 1.5 hours for this return walk. TFTC and the very pleasant exercise and the great views.

Went searching for this one for the views and a trackable that was headed in a direction I am going. Found wp1 pretty quickly but as we arrived at the gz location the sun was starting to get low so we took the safe option and went home early. Will try again maybe get there early next time...

By this time, the sun had pulled its teeth out to give the mist a good shake up, cliffs were starting to appear! Found Wp1 after reading KRS log. Its probably 10m out, but its a 25m walk on the track. Headed down to GZ very excited to see Mt Solitary finally uncovering. TFTC!!!!

5/10/16. 7:13 AM. Cache #4266.
1st of 5 this morning in Leura.

Up early for some more caching near to where we're staying, now targeting some on the southern end. It's been a good 10 years or more since I last hit a little white ball in anger on this course, but as I walked on through (I had parked outside per recommendation), it all still looked and felt very familiar.

I ducked into the bush near WP1 and soon saw the track heading off to Moya Point. In fact at first I thought WP1 was a little way down this part of the track, and I spent a few minutes near the steps looking for features suiting the hint. I re-read the description and realised that I was probably too far from the fairway. Walked back a bit and spotted the hide almost instantly. (I note a recent "finder" has signed the paper here at WP1 but wasn't seen in the final log).

Got my GZ coords and then back to the Moya Point track again. Easy to follow all the way to GZ, with some cool rock hopping at the end. Before searching, I took in the awesome views from here and took some photos. Then back to business; I checked the hint and guessed where I needed to go, and after a few minutes I found the cache. Canary had told me this was his first ever find so I enjoyed flipping through the log and reading his and other old entries. His inflatable cricket bat is still inside; 8 year old swag!

I signed the log, packed it all back away and started heading back. Got to about 100m away and then realised that the TB I had written about dropping in was still in my bag. Sigh. Back to the cache, dropped in the TB and take #2 on my return walk to the car. Next went to "Leura Christmas Tree" to hopefully redeem a previous DNF from 2013.

TFTC - the views and the fun scramble st the end (twice!) are worth favourite points for sure.
} : )

Lovely walk and a great spot

This was our first time and it was so exciting. It made the bush walk so much better for the kids. And the views of the valley were breathtaking !

Great views from the cache. It's a shame the weather wasn't a bit better today. TFTC.

Walked down the Leura Golf Course and out to this beautiful place to check how WP1 and the cache were going. I completely replaced the WP1 container and confirmed that, for all these years, it's been hidden exactly where it was supposed to be . . . notwithstanding a recent log.

The cache at GZ was in such good shape that I only added a couple of swaps, and left everything else 'as is' for future finders.

Wonderful views of the Jamieson Valley and Korowal . . . thinking of Banksia777.

I don't know why it has taken me so long to get to this worthwhile cache. The CO came along but was of little help!
All was found right where expected and in good condition. What a great view from GZ and along the way as well.
Thanks for a great cache to banksia777 and pjmpjm.

Found with the help of Blatherskite
We ventured off after breakfast and took scenic track to WP1
We came across a lyrebird but we didn't get a photo of it.
After WP1, we set off to GZ and had a scramble to retrieve the cache

TFTC and the walk!

Found it on a sunny Friday while staying in the area. We loved this cache, what a great walk and the perfect view at the end. A favourite point for this one. TFTC

Found WP1 Amazing views at GZ however as we had 2 small children we didn't have time to look for GZ's Cache.

Found way point 1!! Not near the coordinates though

Tftc, wow, simply wow. Thanks 4 getting me off my butt and a great scenic walk to gz. WP1 is still there but the sheet is split yet the coords r still readable. Final GZ is simply breath taking and as i was already out of breath i was suffocated in awe of the sights. Tftc fav point. This is epic. There have been a couple of finds not logged but the wrote in the log that they "stumbled upon this by accident" . Some even did swaps. rehid in the corner more as it was just beside path and too obvious. Hope thats ok. Tfth

Favourite. Walked on path beside golf course. Found wp1 quickly and walked to gz. Gz has spectacular views and makes this a must do mountains cache. Cache was in good condition. There was nothing tricky about this multi, and there is a path that leads all the way to gz, so no bush bashing is required.Tftc

logging late as must have forgotten at the time. had a great evening walk to this cache, saw a couple of lyrebirds scratching for food in the bush along the track which was special too. they let us follow them for over an hour, not really concerned just doing their own thing. then the view was just spectacular, why isn't this cache visited more often!!! I love these blue mountain summer evenings. tftc pjmpjm

Great walk, loved GZ

Huge respect to the late CO and to those who keep his caches going

TFTC

A nice multi with great views. Tftc!

after a staying at the Fairmont for a friends 50 th , I decided to go for a walk in the morning with the misses, after we had checked out. found that the trail head co-ords are out by 50 or so meters so didn't find the trail head and just headed towards WP1, which was found with no problem after walking along the edge of the course. down down down we went to a fantastic spot that was fresh in the breeze but wow was the word today as it was a beautiful day in the mountains. found the cache after a bit of a scramble but co-ords were spot on. Definitely would not have come here if the cache wasn't here. so thanks. took coin

Dropped the coin here but pulled it again as the coin had km's from another cache in Victoria that had not been logged.. Cheers RAGS4x4

Up to WP1 is a flat ground walk from our temporary residence at Fairmont, No probs finding the required info then an easy walk to GZ though a little up and down hill, trees have fallen across the track but nothing difficult, I was rewarded with breath taking views south, southwest, east and northeast, the cache duties done took a coin and left a coin, what a shame my weekend companions were so shagged from shenanigans the night before.... they would have enjoyed this view!!

Picky's taken and on my way back. Thans so much for bringing me here worth the effort, this one gets a favourite point!

Cheers RAGS4x4

Just adding my favourite point Cheers again!

Great location at the end of a very pretty little trail. We're staying nearby and finally got away to explore a trail or two. Probably wouldn't even have known this lookout existed if it weren't for your cache. Lots of goodies in there, but TNLNSL. Thanks!

With a dying GPS found it. TFTC

TFTC first for 2014. A hazy NY day a great view all the same. Took TBs left car and picture frame.

Finally done with this! Only problem was there was no prize to be found don't worry though we put a prize in there. On the plus side we made a new friend!

Ventured out on this windy day to log this multi. Waypoint at WP1 still legible. Cache was in good condition with lots of trinkets. Spectacular view of Wentworth Falls blowing up the cliff face. TNLNSL. TFTC.

sorry about delay in logging these caches as computer time at home has been limited as been caring for sick father . and visiting the caches on day off when i have the kidds. my father has now passed away so now i am catching up on the loggs .found with cattrax007 and 4x4141
another multi off the list nice walk fist visted this area manny year ago with tafe outdoor guides with jim smith when he was writing a book on linderman pass just below gz (actually in photo in book) thank for the trip pjmpjm

Need to replace waypoint info starting to fall a part from water damage but it was a great cache in the mean time tftc

On an organised National Parks work bee with Webguy and bisygisy ... Webguy made a generous gesture to the waypoint, bisygisy gave commendable assistance for the Cache; whitemushroom happily signed the Log. What a simply spectacular GZ. Thanks for this Cache, pjmpjm

Mrs. pjmpjm and I were taking a long walk around the Leura area and I suddenly realised that we were within 500 metres of WP for MOYA, so we detoured and had a look.

The little container is fine and was only very slightly damp. Dried it out and replaced it.

Remember that WP1 is a film canister. Once you get close to the published coordinates, you see at least one very likely hiding place right on the pathway.

Fabulous walk and lookout
I have never been here before !!

Spectacular views nice easy find for a Sunday

Performed some time ago.

This was one of my favourite caches for today. Nice walk, nice views and even and old cache container. I am used to these kind of caches in the mountains so I felt right at home. Also the views around here are absolutely fantastic.

TFTC. Found with Team Webguy.

Ever since this cache was put out, it was forever on the "next time" list, today, was next time, we parked where we wanted to, admired and considered borrowing a couple of offroad segways, I was going for mine when I was crash tackled by BisyGisy and told to back off...

After apply bandages, and wiggles bandaids, I caught up to Bisygisy loitering in the bushes on one of the greens, admiring some older ladies backswing. After grabbing him by the ear, and pulling him away like the naughty boy he was, we arrived near to the first waypoint and were dismayed to find a couple of walkers had stopped there for a rest.

What else could I do, but talk to them until their ears started to bleed, it worked, they eventually continued on their way, in the direction we wanted to go. We found the Waypoint, and walked downwards through a nice area.

We arrived at the turn off to Gladstone lookout and Roberts Pass. We continued on, this was my first visit to this area, and it was long overdue. The views were brilliant, best of the day!

Caching duties done, and threats to Bisygisy to behave on the return journey or no ice cream later, we decided to go look at the vantage point of another spot, brilliant views as well.

A very warm and sweaty walk back to the air-conditioning of the car, and some h20 to re-hydrate, should have done this many years ago and a must do mountains cache!!

First Blue Mtns cache for us, on a weekend drive down to visit geogandkids. Found on morning walk after staying overnight at the resort. TFTC and bit on local caching history/legends took geocoin for trip up to the Hunter

Found with the family- great views- thanks pjmpjm.

Nice easy multi found with the family.

The WaywardWoman, Garks, NickoHeap and myself wandered off to do this one today without any knowledge of the small controversy surrounding the cache since December. In fact, we'd only come to the area to do pjmpjm's latest cache and the Three Sisters Earth Cache, but this one called to me. It was the first cache my caching friend, Canary, ever did, and here I was, about to rack up number 1490, and I still had never even attempted it!

So we parked at the suggested parking coordinates and headed down to WP1. It's an easy walk and the first waypoint was easy to find. I had been tossing up whether I'd just find the first waypoint today, but with the coordinates in hand we decided to go for it.

The walk to GZ was quite easy. As to the small controversy mentioned, this cache is easier than many Blue Mountains caches and I never felt uncomfortable around GZ, or worried that I had my kids (12 and 14 years old) with me. The cache itself was easy to find, and the cache location afforded spectacular views across the Jamison.

I'd like to say one more thing. I ran into Banksia777 while caching in Katoomba last year. I was lucky enough to spend the rest of the day with him picking up the caches placed by Wackydo. I have always admired the few caches of his I had already done. My boys were disapponted that the Numantia Falls cache had to be archived. They still think of it as one of their all time favourite caches. Banksia777 hasn't done the huge number of caches that many have now done, but I think he has put out some good caches worthy of the mountains. I was saddened to hear from pjmpjm that he is sick. Apparently he still reads some of the logs on his former caches (pjmpjm told me). I hope he reads this one and remembers the few hours we spent together. I for one would like to see Banksia777's caches remain placed as he originally intended.

Thanks Banksia777 for the cache, and to pjmpjm for ensuring they remain where they are.

We hadn't planned to do this one today, but the weather, although looking rather threatening this morning, had cleared somewhat, so getting this one started was going to be a bonus, even if we didn't finish it today.
It looked like it was going to be straightforward enough, so we set off on a track which was shown as being an easy grade. The walk to WP1 was gentle, with the final co-rdinates being found very easily with the clue.
Onwards we went towards Moya Point, still quite an easy walk. Once at the point, Bikerbuddy headed off further along the track over the fallen tree in question and soon reappeared, cache in hand, while Garks, NickoHeap and I stayed admiring the views across the valley to Mount Solitary and over to Wentworth Falls. With all the rain recently, the falls was certainly more beautiful than ever.
So, thanks Banksia777 for the original cache placement and pjmpjm for adopting it. It sure makes you realise how lucky we are to live in this brilliant national park.
Definitely a favourite point for this one.

Geocoin drop. Could the next finder please move this coin on. I don't want it to stay there too long, but it's such a beautiful spot that I thought it deserved a visit.

well, looks like I'm the only one who is a little unhappy about this cache but I was also going on the 'no need to leave the path' in the description. I did wonder if I was being totally foolhardy retrieving this one - the crumbling rock on the way back was decidedly disconcerting.

Reperio at 1550.

Having had a look at a few walking trails before leaving Newcastle, I had an idea where this one would end up, and was looking forward to completing the cache and finding out. WP1 was located without any trouble, even though there were a few golfers nearby. Off to GZ, and this was exactly what I was hoping it would be...magnificent views...cliffs...some slight rock scrambling...and a great walk. Everything you expect of a cache in the Bluies. A very well placed cache, and I'm glad you've left GZ where it is. Many cachers will thank you for it!

Gratias pjmpjm.

I've deliberately left this cache at Banksia777's original GZ, at beautiful Moya Point, behind the iconic 'Fairmont Resort,' overlooking the Jamison Valley, Mt. Solitary and Kings Tableland.

Compared to other Blue Mountains bush caches, the placement is relatively safe and straight-forward.

However, I take the point that it's much more challenging than the usual suburban geocaches.

If you take geo-children to search here, you should keep a close eye on them. And anyone who doesn't like cliffs, etc., ought to think twice about 'MOYA' and many other Blue Mountains geocaches.

I'll have a think about this one, and perhaps make another visit sometime, but for now I believe it's safe enough for geocaching if due care is taken.

Once again, all bush caches in the Blue Mountains require common sense and caution, especially of younger geo-kids.

I agree this cache should stay where it is.
The tree is neither hard to traverse nor inconsistent with a 2.5 star terrain rating, and the cliffs (which are well telegraphed in the cache description and attribute listing) are quite a way from the cache, with lots of trees and bushes in between.

More successful second time around.
Expansive views.Thanks for a great cache.

Really think that this cache needs moving as I feel it is in a dangerous postion. Definately not one for kids or oldies. Had to climb over (through!)a fallen tree and scramble down a boulder to reach, bits of which fell away as I climbed back up . Maybe there is another path but if so it is obscured by forest debris and I didn't see it.

1st attempt run out of time, 2nd ran out of batteries,3rd time lucky!
Took TB off to start a long journey.

Dropped by to check the cache was intact and left a TB.

Found WP1 and read note about GZ being lost or stolen.
Searched for GZ just in case but was rewarded with a fantastic
view from Moya Point, and no GZ.

This is another beautiful local spot I would never have known about or come to except for the cache. In fact I had even been avoiding the cache listing because the way in sounded confusing. But after a DNF when out with the kids today I was looking for something local to maintain the streak and this seemed more fun than another needle-in-a-haystack urban nano search so off I went.

I did get very confused on my way to the trailhead, ended up walking over lots of greens which I am sure is taboo but being very late afternoon there was no-one tell me off. I think a better waypoint for the trailhead (which I found on the way back) is S33 43.391 E150 21.182 - maybe the course has changed since the cache was originally placed because the published trailhead coords seems to be in an isolated group of trees now, not a path - I may be wrong because I gave up heading there about 100m away and set my course for wp1 instead.


Once I got to WP1 I felt much better. The writing on the insert is starting to bleed a bit but is still perfectly readable. Then off through the trees on a lovely hike, then magnificent views at GZ.

I looked at the valley and basked in the glow of the setting sun then reluctantly turned for home before it got dark.

Those golfers have no idea what they are missing!

The cache was in good condition with log and contents all dry. TNLNSL. Thanks Banksia777 for taking me to another great spot!

MOYA was transferred from banksia777 to user pjmpjm

This multi is located close to my house in Leura and I'm very familiar with the area around Moya Point. I'm pleased to be asked by Banksia777 to look after it.

Today we visited the Blue Mountains and we planned to find this cache. We parked our vehicle on the given place. We went the wrong way and didnt find the gate. So we were standing in front of the gulf place and we went straight across to WP 1 .No gulf muggles were on the place The film canister was found easily and it is in good condition!
After that we went the to Moya Point and the cache.
The panorama is very awesome and beautiful. The way to the last 30 meters was blocked by an wind clipped tree.
After looking around we found this cache. We noticed that our find was the first one in 2011 [|)]
The cache is also in good condition and completly dry.
Thank for showing this beautiful spot. This cache get a favorite point from me.

Fantastic spot. Great cache. TNLNSL TFTC

Good cache and good for our first Multi

TFTC

This very beautiful spot is located very close to our Blue Mountains house, so I decided to check on the WP1 and GZ caches of Moya while taking an winter's afternoon walk to Moya Point. Both the film canister and the clip-lock cache are in good order. The top layer of the GZ cache contents seemed very slightly damp, so I placed everything out in the winter sunshine to dry a bit while I took photos. When I replaced things a while later everything seemed dry. There are a lot of goodies waiting here for the next visitor! (TNLN.)

Your bushy walk to GZ will take you to the very pointy point of Moya and a little bit beyond, in fact. A bit of minor climbing down is required towards the end. Watch your geokids carefully around here because there are no railings and cliffs are everywhere. But it sure is beautiful, with picture post card views to King's Tableland to the east, Mt. Solitary to the south, and Katoomba and Narrow Neck to the west.

Parking outside the Fairmont grounds will give you a sizeable walk to WP1, where the National Park officially begins, next to the Leura Golf Course. Locals heading to Moya Point and the other National Park walks commonly park their vehicles in the lower three Fairmont Hotel car parks, which are large and always completely empty, located far distant from the entrance to the Hotel. From there it's only about 200 metres to WP1. If you don't go near the Fairmont Hotel and don't bother the golfers, chances are that no-one will bother you. However, I can't recommend that you do this . . .

I was staying at the resort to support my son's attempt to run 100km through the mountains in a day. After he started I headed up the track on a great mountains morning and soon found WP1. The GPS then led me around with crazy readings until something clicked and I then headed down stairs I had already been up and down and went straight to the well hidden cache. The view at that time of the morning was just fantastic, but the stairs back were waiting to dampen my spirits. MrsFish missed this one as the bed was too warm. TNLN, thanks for a really great cache in one of the better less visited lookouts.

Found the forlorn water-proofed note in a small plastic film canister, informing us that the original geocache had been lost or stolen! Anyhow, we continued onwards another 30 minutes to beautiful Moya Point and had a nice bush walk . . .

Yes, it is still there and worth a visit! Highly recommended if you like to stroll of the beaten track. TFTC

Enjoyed the walk out to the two lookouts. Mist lifting at Mayo revealed the view, complete white out at Gladstone. Then continued round to Valley of the Waters and Scottish Rock. Finished at Conservation Hut. Well worth popping for a bowl of soup.

My FTF.

Took Geocoin, so I stay in the game!

What a trip to the end, had been on this walk before, but not to that extent!

An excellent location & turning point of my walking trip. Started from Echo Point, but couldn't go farther because Lilian's Bridge is closed. Thus this cache cannot ne approached from Wentworth Falls. It's unbelievable that there has been so few visitors. I left a geocoin to attact more. The place is really worth seeing.
