Always good to do an old one. Thought that container would have been more water proof. Thanks for keeping it going.

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.
 
12-Aug-23
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.

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
 
12-Jul-22
TFTC!
 
06-Jun-22
The hint made my mind go completely elsewhere.
But an adventurous mind luckily brought to a correct spot. Tftc!

24-Apr-22
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.
 
23-Apr-22
But of bush bashing but all in all an easy find

17-Sep-21
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.

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!
