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.

Came down the track for an easy find, thanks =M=.
 
31-Aug-11
A lot of cars were around near the end of the day, but we had no trouble finding access and strolling down the steep track. We had to poke around likely places for a while but soon spotted it then dragged ourselves back up the slope. No TBs here at all. The sewerage smell was pretty bad, but thanks for the hide.

Cache Hunt 673; GAFF1; Weather, Rainy; Helpers, None; Cache condition, Good; Find of the day, 3rd; STATUS, Found; GPSr at GZ - 4m

After driving by here many times, I finally could stop and go for this cache. Pulled up on the road and walked down to GZ. The track and path is not that bad. Was able to get to cache with no problem. SL. TNLN and replaced. No TB's to take. Nice little cache in the bush near an urban place. TFTC.
 
06-Aug-11
Reperio at 1340. Pulled up along side the road and made my way down to GZ amidst plenty of trees and rocks. Poked around a few places until the the cache was spotted. A nice piece of natural bushland.

Gratias.
 
23-Jul-11
Made the most of a break in the rain - and had an afternoon of caching. Starting to think that we might have to buy a gps as our iphone had trouble zeoring in on this one.
 
17-Jul-11
Found it with Angellea, geo-husband & geo-nephew on our way back from www.doggierescue.com . Our first TB find. Have plans for TB as we're going out country next weekend. Geo-dog loved the bush.

A quick find on the way to Geocaching NSW's event at Manly. Co-ordinates for GZ seemed to some 8m out. TNLNSL TFTC
 
25-Jun-11
Parked at the Bonne Bell Company building across the road (no signs about reserved parking here ;p), crossed the road and headed down the hill, scaring some rabbits out of their wits on our way! Found cache fairly quickly upon reaching GZ after reading the clue. As some other logs have mentioned, co-ords might be out a bit, but the clue should point you in the right direction! TNLNSL, TFTC -=M=- ^_^

A quick find for Smurfyguy and me today. Initially our GPSr took us to about 8m away from the cache. However, a search of the area soon had the prize in sight. With the log signed and cache returned we were back on our way. Thanks M for organising the hide.
 
29-May-11
An easy find, exactly as described. GPS got me close and the telltale signs of a cache were spotted a few metres away. All in good condition but didn't notice any trackables. TNLN. Thanks -=M=-.

No problems here, nice straightforward find. TnLn, SL, TfTc Smile!!

Relatively easy find even if the iPhone showed the GZ 30 meters to the east.

I arrived at this somewhat odd location -- apparently some kind of industrial estate -- not quite knowing what to expect. However, GZ was well within 100 metres of where I parked.

Fortunately, I'd checked the Google Maps before departure and noticed that some kind of fire trail extended off to the far right of the 'car park' area and then swung around left and down in front of the 'drop off' that's evident on arrival.

Taking this easy route I quickly arrived down at GZ and immediately spotted the cache container, only partly covered, in an extremely likely hiding spot.

All was in good order, however, and the log book was nice and dry. TNLNSL. I replaced the cache in its hiding place with a bit more natural camo, but this one shouldn't be too difficult if you walk down the fire trail and follow your GPSr.

Absolutely no need to climb down the overgrown embankment!

Many thanks to 'M' for this one.

On the way back from the beach, we pulled in here to find this cache. Luckily it was a Sunday so we didn't have any problems parking - just about everywhere was empty. As we walked down to GZ, there was lots of tiny birds flitting about which was great to see. Strike-a-light found the cache with no problem and it's all nice and dry, in good condition. Thanks M, lovely to hear all the birds singing here today.
 
06-Feb-11
Found with blossom* after a great day at the beach. Thanks for showing us this spot with all the lovely birds

Quick find after morning shopping excursion. TNLN TFTC!
 
19-Dec-10
Found after a quick trip to bunnings on a sunny afternoon. After parking my bike I had a look around and eventually found that I parked my bike about a meter from GZ! TFTC
 
04-Dec-10
Had to make visit to Belrose and wanted to test out the iPad for geocaching.
Thanks for setting this up.
 
15-Nov-10
A nice stroll and a quick grab in the rain for this great little cache. Was down in Sydney for work and couldn't resist a cache so close to my old home. There wasn't much around this neck of the woods when I was ground up only the refuse tip on the southern ridge. My mates and I used to go walking from Forestway all the way down to the back of Davidson. Catching yabbies, eels and bass back in the day.....
Thanks for the memories
No swaps today
 
13-Nov-10
Good little distraction after traipsing around the shopping centre.
 
07-Nov-10
Well we did this as a drive by after Ryland Riddle but it wasn't as simple as it looked. Parked on the road after doing a circuit looking for an entrance. There was a locked gate for some strange sort of yard and we walked to the riight of the "big drop" wall before turning left and going down the hill to GZ. GPSr had us at something that could be loosely interpreted as the hint but we looked and looked and found nothing but nasty ants. Tried the Oldgill coords (changing S32 to S33) and went off on another wild goose chase. Gave up thinking it had been muggled as we couldn't see how a difficulty 1 could be this hard when I happened to look in another spot on the way out some 13 metres from our coords. I can see why it's a 1 but I wonder at the anomaly throwing our GPSr off. Geoboy loved the 1987 pig so left a heap of figurines and a die for it. Thanks!

Found it while waiting for the shopping centre to open. My son left a stone sculpture paper weight in a box and took a plastic logo of some description.
 
11-Jul-10
The path was muddy, but the overgrowth has been cleared, an easy find on a Sunday, but not sure if it would be so easy on a week day SL TNLN TFTH Big Grin
 
11-Jul-10
A nice stroll down, and a bit muddy under foot due to the recent rains, but found the cache all the same. TFTH...SL....TNLN
 
10-Jul-10
found this while visiting Sydney to watch the Everton V Sydney FC match, but did some sightseeing around Church point and then on the return drive back into the city I couldn't resist finding at least one cache today.
Confused about the CP coords but did find a CP across the road as it was the weekend, I was worried when I saw the muddy track but wasn't too bad as I didn't really have my best shoes for this sort of walk, but got out without any mess, and found quickly.
thanks for the visit and yet another place in Sydney I found.
 
30-Jun-10
Easy find, but I'm glad cause I am wearing work attire. Thanks for the cache, will return with an object to replace the wine dangler I took!

This was my second attampt, nice and easy find. TFTC

Sister bear braved this one in flip flops but hey we've been muddy all week. Left our signature hockey card

No trackable?

Ps think sister will be caching at home in Canada, she's so hooked
 
11-Apr-10
Thought this would be a nice quick one before Bunnings opened, but turned out to be quite a trek in through the bush so I'm not sure we went the best way. Much clearer from undergrowth at the GZ and we took the shorter way back straight up the wall after signing the log and swapping a couple of small trinkets for geoson. Amazing bush right next to all those shops. TFTC
 
09-Apr-10
Out to grab a quick cache or 2 with RAG's 4x4
This one is well overgrown and was a bush bash to get in

easy find, probably entered from the wrong direction, so a little bush washing was used. nice quiet spot.

I was temporarily working up at the nearby "Supa Centa" so stopped to find this on the way home. Pretty easy find although the iPhone seems a bit crap under the trees. I had a distance and bearing from up the top of the retaining wall and found it ok down the bottom. Nice piece of bushland. Thanks!
 
23-Dec-09
Found back in December, but never got around to logging it! TFTC. Gained a few cut and scratches from the grasses!
 
21-Oct-09
A tricky descent, watch for ticks, but an easy spot using given coordinates. Sorry JABs, didnt look at comments until we got back to log visit. Took TB and left UK1p. Nice quickish cache for a Thursday lunchtime with Geodaughter out from school early - thanks!
 
12-Oct-09
Not shore if we did this cache so log has been changed to note. If the next finder could let us know if our name is in the log book.

bonsaimaxi found thi cache all thanks to the ''Oldgill team'' because they had the right Coordinates to find the cache so make sure all of you go to Oldgills coordinates.


thank oldgill cheersSmileSmileSmile
 
06-Sep-09
Despite well over 50 'Found It's' logged and zero 'did not finds' logged there seems to be some confusion as to the correct co-ordinates.

I shall inspect the cache this week to ensure it has not been moved and check the posted co-ordinates are still reliable.

Found by Nanny and Bo!
A really good place for a GZ.
No TB found or left.
We regret this this is no longer sacred and the owners gave up their deep held traditional beliefs for a few pieces of silver.
We thought that the co-ords were more like S32 42.386 E151 12.589

Just completed Ryland track and thought I'd try this one - just off the road. Thanks for the cache. Relatively easy find if you take the 'right' track down from the road.
Many thanks,

Beautiful winter's day... didn't really matter that this was the only cache we found from a few stops.

Had to go to Bunnings so found a reason to go to Belrose. Quick find in pleasant bush. Cache was out in the open so tucked it away with camo. Didn't see Geocoin or TB in there, but in any case had no swaps so TNLN.

Took geocky coin and put japanese suvonier pin.
 
16-May-09

I knew I would be driving past tonight and debated whether I should try this one in the dark - obviously I did. I wasn't too bad scrambling around in the bush at 10pm, but I certianly wasn't following any trail. Turned out to be quite easy once I found the right "clue".

Took Giant's Ring TB
Left Geocky Geocoin (tracked at http://www.geocky.org/coins/coins.php).

Picked up the Tartarus Travel Bug.

Driven past a number of time thinking about this cache. This time had a bit of spare time and some daylight so decided to go out and get it.

I also remember this site when it was natural bushland.

What is the difference between the native owners or the government selling the land?

Lovely start. Thanks to The Collectors!

I did the investigation for a fair few of the buildings in this estate some years ago and I must say that the place was a lot better when it was all bush. Now it is just one big edifice of consumerism. Plenty of goodies in this cache!!
Took two geocoins. Hare TB in then out again.
