X Narrabeen Peninsula, New South Wales, Australia
By Charl and Yewenyi on 11-Aug-07. Waypoint GC152VN

Any chance of a fix here soon?

It's gone. It must have rolled off the cliff or been Muggled.

Look at all those DNFs! This cache may have been muggled. I'll deactivate it until I have a chance to check.

GPS on iphone was mucking up but we found the boardwalk. Looks like a bushfire has been through and maybe a landslide/mudslide(?). Think it may have gone astray. Would like confirmation from owner..

Went tracking with dr.loz and her iPhone that decided that it was too wet to stay on, so we had to guess the final location.
Rainy and 2 dog poos near where we thought the cache was, but since we didn't find it, then maybe we were way off.

Got to GZ just as the GPS was complaining about low battery! Found the boardwalk, found the X, but couldn't find the cache. Even ignored advice to get to ground level to have a look to see if it had fallen down, but no luck either. Tried to work out where a magnetic would work here but had equally bad luck.

One for the next trip to the northern beaches. Certainly great views from this spot. Thanks.

Looked high and low but couldn't find this 1. Did notice that a fire as been thru on 1 side and all the bushes on the other had been trampled down.

Cheers Ben & Mel

Found alone, close to midnight, full moon and wild seas... with the wind howling and the clouds racing across the sky, I couldn't help but wonder whether unseen eyes were watching...

Had a few minutes before a meeting to show a work colleague what the whole geocaching thing is about, so we decided to do this one. Had a lot of trouble finding it while taking note of the "stay on the boardwalk" advice, and eventually had to disobey this advice. The cache had fallen into the grass underneath. Took the geocoin on its way, and had to replace the cache. I don't know if it's in the right spot - probably not as I noticed the top is magnetic and couldn't see any metal to attach it too - but it IS accessible from the boardwalk now. Thanks for the cache and the awesome view.

Another quick find with more great views. I took some photos that I'll upload later. TFTC

Kids wanted to show Mum the geocache "they" found the day before. Decided to use it as an opportunity to drop a Geocoin off.

Took: Flying fish and a plastic soldier.

My first GC, and a good one... I love this area, and this was a great initiation.
Agree and support the note about keeping to the boardwalk. The temptation to head into the scrub and to the cliff edge should be avoided.
Left nothing, took nothing.

Nice and easy one. And what an amazing beach. Will come back for a swim...

Found this one pretty easy and it had a nice view of the beach

Found with Raainjoy... another beautiful spot on the northern beaches...
Yes - the log book certainly needs attention!

Nice views from this platform. Found it just sitting there. The magnets seem to be attracted to something but the force is very weak.
The log scroll is badly torn and almost unreadable.

After failing to locate the nearby "Washing Machine" cache this was a very good consolation prize. We wandered along the excellent track to a fine lookout over the ocean with great views - particularly to the south. Some distance offshore we observed six long sea kayaks heading north. Tronador soon had the cache in hand and the duties were carried out. A very nice spot indeed! We dropped off the Waggy's coin.

I found it with Ropes, Jumbuck and Swissball. Needs a new log book.

Found this one with Ropes, FFCreedy and Swissball's son. Lovely walk. Thank you fo the marker. Found the marker after finding the cache! No swaps, TYFTC

Out for a walk with ffcreedy, swissball and gang. Found easy enough, co-ords spot on. As others have said, cache was not stuck, just sitting. Maybe it has rolled off sometime n the past. If there is a sticky plate, the owner may need to put it correctly for future. The lid certainly shows one half of the attachment!. Log sheet could do with a new one as it has been wet in the past. TFTC

Nice Cache... I love the X...

I didn't get the adrian bit... And its not really being held on my a manget... its just sitting there.

What a nice spot! Lived here for 15 years and never been out to this lookout before. "Daughter" got to see some great wildlife including Rabbits, a few lizards and a dragonfly. Nice easy find, put it back where we found it. Thanks for a great afternoon out.

Found this one with my son and some camping friends. Beaut views. Took bank note keyring left small toy. Logbook a bit sodden. We didn't work out the Adrian link though. TFTC. Dawesy.

Found and left in the correct position. TNLN.

I found the cache during my holiday in Australia. Thanks.

Found this one with my geo-daughter today. Lovely spot, we sat and ate our lunch while enjoying the view including a hang glider who was flying around the cliff top above us.

Used the hint and put it exactly back where we found it....well gspblu did!...I just buggered around looking in all the wrong spots while he found it
Another great view after an enjoyable little walk.
Thanks for the cache Charl and Yewenyi

Found and put back where I got it from but don't see where the magnets would be attracted to.
Thanks Charl and Yewenyi

Picked up Key to Lou's red ferrari TB. Not at all sure where the 'original' position is as cache was 2m under (necessitating a crawl) when last here and today it was out in the open. So now it is tucked in just out of the weather (easily reached).

2 of the six bugs ventured out for a quick cache.
cool little spot
Picked up dory droped off key ring

Just a note to say I've put a message into the cache information asking people to put the cache back on the edge where it's supposed to be, rather than putting it back far under the boardwalk. It was poor Mona Vale Dave that had the horrible job of crawling two metres in the mud under the boardwalk this time, but I had that job last time and it's one I never want to do again.

Please always put the cache back where you found it. Don't try to hide it 'better'. All you're doing is changing the cache difficulty and forcing the unfortunate owner or next finder to get injured from the climb down and covered in mud from the crawl.

Nice cache. Great to see the storm off shore. Got a little wet though. TNLN TFTC

11:57am
Nice views. Easy find, though, based on what is secured in the lid, it probably is not sitting where/how it is supposed to sit.

Dropped a trackable.

Cheers

Not sure how the magnetic clue applies, as we found the cache not attached to anything metallic, so we replaced it as it was found. Quick find and a great view the kind of cache we enjoy. TNLNSL. TFTC.

This was our first cache find in Australia! A great view and excellent hiding place. Replaced cache exactly as found. TFTC

Found this cache with Narrabeen and Fret3. We took the Bushranger and decided such a bonzer outlaw would do well in the American west, so he is headed to Montana with us when we leave on Tuesday. Look for photos of the Bushranger as he gets placed into his new home in the Big Sky Country!

Went on a raining Sunday afternoon with kimjayne, and Narabeen. Nice location, My first find.

With Fret3 and kimjayne. Fret3's first find. I took nothing left small tin of Tiger balm.

Super view, terrific spot for a cache. My geo-wife spotted this one.

I took a TB - Jarouch's Letterboxing.

dropped off two geocoins

My first cache in Australia! Very nice location! TFTC

Found on a wet Saturday morning. Great little spot. Love the beach. Spectacular storm brewing out to sea and moving in. Nice cache. Should have read the other logs first as spent time scrounging around under the structure in the rain. Took Gary & Vicky's geocoin to keep it moving along. Thanks for showing us this spot.

thanks for the nice cache , it was a great view from there

in and out: coin

Nice spot. Didn't find any coins so I took a highlighter and dropped a dinosaur and a coin.

Rated: for Overall Experience

SLTFTC. Placed back *exactly* where it was found. (I can appreciate your frustration...) Left: 2 coins. -=M=- [xx(]

Just had to burrow under the boardwalk to retrieve the cache. Could people please put it back where they found it, and not try to hide it 'better'. It's where it is because the difficulty is 1.5.

Charl (who's been plagued by people moving her caches lately. No, you're not hiding them better. You're forcing the owner to climb over, then fall off (go me) boardwalks, burrow through mud, and purchase replacement cache boxes and contents, only to find that the caches haven't been muggled they've been 'helpfully' moved. Please put 'em back where you found 'em and save cache owners the time, frustration, money and bruises!)

We took a couple of scenic routes which we enjoyed. Thanks for the cache. Cache is snuggled back in its spot. TNLN.

This headland is an old haunt of mine. It was nice to revisit it.

No need to leave the platform? Go, go Gadget arms!
TFTC

Another great View
Plenty of muggles around so we had to throw the hat into the wind
Retrieved the cache, signed the log then off

sent a geokid to retrieve as we stodd with the muggles watching the surfers ride the wild seas

Excellent hiding spot - I like the ones you have to work for a tiny bit...but not too much!

TFTC

Only get about one seconds warning here if a muggler arrives! The bushes have certainly grown since I last walked out here. I dont believe the clue about not having to leave the platform - you would need a two metre long arm. Geokids stood guard while I did the crawl. Took a ball and left a highlghter. TFTC

Quick visit to pick up TB to take to the Central Coast event next weekend. Nearly got sprung by a muggle, luckily Mrs Riptide was with me and we were able to appear to act normally.

I had vivited an nearby cache with a higher terrain rating, and had to return to find this one. The whole area is well worth a visit as it is truly spectacular. Left Racer tb

A quick find with my guest cachers

A nice walk on as sunny day. With the clue it was not too hard to find the cache, there are not too many places to attach a magnet.
Took magnet 'Moon', left Geocoin 'Aguila Star'.

Another very nice view of the ocean to be had. Thanks again for bringing us here too.

A short walk and a quick find.
A great view from here, and not a muggles to be seen!
Thanks, Robmc.

This was a great view from a lookout I never knew existed, and what a brilliant spot to be on a sunny Sunday morning. Thanks for taking us there.

Easy find, but a clever hide. We have got a bit sick of finding plastic boxes hidden under shrubs. So anything that shows a bit of thought and ingenuity gets the thumbs up from us. Hope you didn’t cause the x damage to public property! Pittwater council is a bit militant so be warned those rangers will harass you for anything. I vote they re-amalgamate back with Warringah. In those days no one cared who did what nth of Narrabeen. Top spot in the late afternoon sun. Picked up Geo Coin.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Sneaky little hide this one, but a great little spot that is well worthwhile. Though, I couldn't work out the reference to the name Adrian in the cache description???
I was tempted to take the Geocoin, but realised that it looked familiar - I'd already moved this one along once before!! Small world. Someone else can check it out.

It wasn't the nicest of days to admire the view, very rainy, but still a quite impressive spot. The X made the cache an easy find. Exchanged a few items and left a San Diego Geocoin.

This new cache was a good excuse to walk this bit of track again. The wildflowers were out adding some nice colours. Tricky container.

This place is your surfy hang out
By the looks of the sets good waves no doubt
For a cache hide this would be a great place
Low and behold up the track, this was the case
Top spot to watch the rollers come in
Continue caching or home to get my 3 fin?

nice little lookout ,

A FTF what a bonus. Just finished the CITY2SURF fun run and thought a cache would be nice. To my suprise when I logged on a virgin cache by Charl and Yewenyi showed up on the radar.
Beautiful area!
Took glue stick, left 3 headbands.
Thanks Charl and Yewenyi.
Regards Philma and Geo-cheese & kisses.

After a 450km bike ride today we got home to discover this new cache. So raced down after dinner only to find Philma had beaten us to it. Took TB LN.
