Always good to do an old one. Thought that container would have been more water proof. Thanks for keeping it going.
This one was a little harder for me as Im new to caching but thanks! Watch out for the funnel web spiders!
Streak Day #4074 - Out this way with Dave8153 for our cache of the day, stopped by for a quick find. TFTC
5 September 2024This is find number: 10376Streak Day: 3185Found Today with Snoopy1976, a quick and easy find. ThanksThanks to Philma for placing and maintaining this cache. TFTC
Nice cache location, very quiet on a wet cloudy afternoon. Had to take off my good jacket as was not wanting to ditty or rip to reach. I wasn't planning on caching when I left home today for some shopping but a few nearby where I ended up in five dock. Then a few more as I made my way home. Nice hiding spot. FP from me.
Out walking the nearby JFTF AL and made the grab on this oldie. Great hiding spot and conventional container! Log slightly damp but no issue to sign. Thanks for sharing this location Philma #2743
I was entirely distracted on the way to this cache by the house owner nearbys magnificent birds. They have a macaw and a glossy black cockatoo (i think) very wow.I used it as a distraction to after a while, go and find the cache which luckily was very quick, then back outta the shrubbery and over to gawk more at these two very cool birds. Apparently the macaw is let out to fly around the neighbourhood and always comes back.Thank you Philma for hiding a cache in this well used wetland area many years ago!
Found this one today after work! I've actually worked at some houses just over the path from here and never knew this was here!! Love when that happens! Tftc
On a cache run around Concord, Hunters Hill, Gladesville and Putney picking up a few solved puzzles as well as some stray caches we pass along the way. As we passed by on our way to Wulaba Track AL, we stopped and found this cache. Walked up to GZ and wondered about the hide, investigating a nice featured. On inspection we noticed the container. With the cache in hand, we signed the log then replaced everything as found. Thanks for the cache Philma.The following TBs came through for the mileage: Bob geoMinion, Dave geoMinion, Evil geoMinion, Jerry geoMinion, Larry geoMinion, Mary Hyde's Treasure, Stuart geoMinion, teamMerlin's 7 Deadly Ducks Tag (Lust), Vanlith The Youngling, Hidden Creatures Geocoin TB, teamMerlin's Football, Tribute - Snickers, Lasse Lssig, Monkey See, Monkey Do, 030 TB - Geo#ju, Tobis Nikolo, Chase is on the case, Berlin - Cacherhauptstadt Geocoin
Had two unsuccessful searches for this in January this year - one in the night and later on another attempt in the day but DNF! It seems it was missing in action then as it was a simple find this time, exactly where I had concentrated my previous searches. TFTC and the recent replacement!
A quick find at GZ
With cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache Philma and jennyfromthefarm for looking after it

I am in Sydney from Adelaide for a few days to attend to some family business. Today I took a day out to go and find a few caches.
My main aim was to add to my LGAs around Sydney. I was driving, so just targeted one or two caches of interest where required.
I also noticed that there was an event scheduled near here this afternoon, so thought I’d head off and do a few nearby caches beforehand, including this one.
The cache was a quick find.
Thanks Philma for the cache.

Thanks for the event jennyfromthefarm commemorating this your first find.
Thanks also for doing some maintenance a few days ago to make sure it was ready to find.
Lovely park.

I didn’t find it. I spent a hour walking around the bush trying to find it. DNF
Found this a few months ago, but just wanted to mark as completed since I am on a new account
Find #: 2,878
Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Damp winter afternoon
Cache condition: Log a bit damp
My daughter had a dance Eisteddfod, and I had a small window after dropping her off before it started to find some nearby caches. I parked at the top and wandered down, a bit concerned by the volume of water flowing down the stairs, but the actual path towards GZ was fine. Once there it was a quick find of a nicely-sized container (not sure I understand the name or hint, but whatevs!) TNLNSL TFTC

The hint made my mind go completely elsewhere.
But an adventurous mind luckily brought to a correct spot. Tftc!

Awesome hiding spot!! I guessed where it was easily with a helpful hint, but it took me a little while to retrieve it. The log was very soggy and full so I put a new piece of paper in and left a trinket. I also removed a couple of food wrappers - come on everyone, I think we can do better than that.
But of bush bashing but all in all an easy find
TFTC!!
Is that a possum I see??

Very fun but very hard to find! A lot of stuff in there which I don’t know how old it is. Very fun though, for everyone who found it remember to LOG it in. Didn’t understand the hints but people in comments helped.
Nice hide, walked right passed it then turned round and thought that would be a good hiding spot. TFTC
Had fun finding this geocache with the kids. Notepad was full and had no space left to write my visit.
Our first find. Lots of little people hunters and we found it with lots of excitement and fun! Thanks!
I swear I walked through a gazillion cobwebs to get there but in the end the clever device was worth checking out for. Tftc
Bit more of a scramble than expected, and a little slippery after last night’s rain, but a quick find easily accessible once at the correct elevation. A nicely hidden construction.
Seems appropriate to have made this find on Australia Day. Happy Australia Day! Thankful to live in this great land, with so many people from various nations who now call Australia home. TFTC Nice hide, I’ll give it a fav.
It's nice to find a 2008 with the original log book! The cache was well constructed

What a great cache! And l had no idea this nearby salt marsh Wulaba Track bush walk was here...unbelievably magical. And across the street just suburbia! TFTC indeed!!
#5391- After a short stroll down the path into the park and a quick sprint up, I could see the cache, but it took thomo31's height to reach it. Thanks
Found with WaywardWoman while caching in the area. Signed log and returned as found. TFTC

Meeting up in Gladesville with Eagle Eyed Monkey Girl for a walk around the area for some of the caches in the area.
At the entrance of the park a sign warned for large swooping birds, having caused injuries to people. With still 7 days to go in May, winter has not started yet, so we were quite confident and ventured into Glades Bay Park. Crossing the boardwalk along the water, it took not long before we reached GZ and once we walked up from the path the cache location was obvious.
Good hide. TFTC!
