The Hump Concord West, New South Wales, Australia
By Toonarmy on 02-Mar-08. Waypoint GC19VBV

No longer spend my weekends here and do not have time during the week for this

Couldn't find it either. We looked for about 15mins but still no luck.

This should have been an easy one but there was a muggle mowing the mound which made it difficult. I checked were my gizmo was showing GZ but no luck.

My eldest boy and I took a walk while at a BBQ. This one eluded us amongst all the spiders and muggles!

This should have been easier! It is not the first time I have searched a bridge, but this cache kept eluding me - so frustrating!
Eventually I found it tucked away.
Thanks, Robmc..

Found without any difficulty. Thanks.

Quick find together with Maradona. TFTC!

Found it quickly this time. TFTC

This one took us a bit of a while... arrived after cycling from Tennis Centre so a bit hot and flustered, did a quick search interrupted every few minutes by muggles passing nearby. Thought we would be able to get it in no time flat, however, had to take some time to calm down and approach in a methodical manner.
Once we took on the alternative mindset, we achieved the goal in a couple of minutes.
Nice Camo .... well hidden .... TFTC.

Looked for 20min but we didnt find it...Definitely going back soon to look closer. Hope it is still there.

Got it nice and easy this time round.
TFTC

After a few minutes of carful looking finally found the tiny cache. Great cache and nice bridge to make the cache a bit harder.
TFTC

Found on the great Top Gear tour with Geo-uncle Lat & Long Junkie. TFTC.

The nice thing about having two people searching for a cache like this is that one can see it and direct the other to grab it. Therefore, we found it quickly TN/LN/SL and headed off to "Twitchers".

Down for a couple days from San Francisco. My 2nd of 9 finds for the day....A quick one here. TFTC!!

Easy find.

7pm.
It's amazing what can be found when you turn off the main paths. Great little spot, surprisingly deserted considering how many muggles were using the precinct during our time here
TFTC!

Almost got me, this one! But found eventually with Oldridge.

TFTH

Nice easy find. Hiked over the 'hump' with the bikes only to come upon the bridge where a quick scan located the cache easily.

TFTC

very easy hiding spot with no muggles around thanks

Found the hump and the very secluded area.Enjoyed all the walkways and lookouts nearby.Thanks to Toonarmy.

easy Find. very little muggle activity

Found with Knight&Fox. Nice hiding spot!

Found this one with "Red Robins" on a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon.

Thanks for the cache & Merry Christmas!

This is the smallest we've ever seen! I'm not sure it's where it used to be considering other's logs

[Yaaaaay! Found it ]

Almost fell down into the water though!

[xD]

Great cache the smallest one I have found so far! Enjoyed a great walk through the park with the girlfriend Thanks.

Took partner on first cache. Found without to much trouble. SL

Nice spot for a picnic

Found this with rskoro on a days outing around the Olympic site for some exercise and geocaching. Thanks

With new maps and data on our GPS it took us right on the spot and also from expierience it would be a micro cache.

We had been successful in the first cache we had attempted so it was time for another. I fired up the new GPS and it took us to GZ and I got to within 1m so I love the new machine. We had walked to the spot and the cache was located within a few minutes. I then left it to my new cacher friend to retrieve and he was unable to grab it so I did and saw the blank log which matched my expression as I knew that this was not a new cache. What I found out was that it had not been found and I can only assume the owner had replaced it with a new container. So I think that I am just lucky. TFTC

Checked today and it would seem to have been muggled.

Have replaced and all should be good again

Tried finding this cache after event at ANZ Stadium. DId not succeed.

Team Percy

Almost got busted by people on bikes and a security guard driving along the road/path. Had a good look around on the structure but no joy. Our only DNF for the day.

[:-(] Believe to have found the spot, but nothing to be found....Still there??? Not many more options around considering that it is a magnetic key holder.....
Will have to return to check and avoid many sleepless nights...
The Shongololos

Afer parking nearby we walked over the big green hump and followed the GPSr to the little concrete hump. A thorough search under the bridge and the surrounding area failed to locate the cache.

YES - we do need one!

Nice easy find after a picnic lunch with the geofamily at a nearby picnic area. Thanks for the cache, signed the log.

Nice easy find on a pleasant walk. Thanks.

A lot of people around today for a end-of-Ramadan celebration, but we found the cache area completely deserted. Managed to find it within a few seconds, well hidden but the co-ordinates are spot on. Retreated to the nearby bench to sign, and ten off to the next cache.

Thanks, Jezzza Xtreme.

Unlike the previous cache I had done this one was a very quick find. A few muggles today but not too bad. Thanks Toonamy for the placement.

WanderingAus wandered by on a wet and cold day 121 of a 6 month trip Wandering Australia and made an easy find. The log was saturated, so I supplied a new log sheet in a ziplock bag.

My find No 912, TN, L log, SL.

A really nice Area arround the Cache. It was number seven on my Olympic&Bicentennial Park Tour. I walked to every cache!!

When i opend the box it was completly filled with water. I try my best to dry it but it was impossible so sign the log, so i left one of my sticker i normally use in bigger logs.

If necessary to proof my visit i also took a foto of the cache my gps an the sticker.

TFTC

Held im Einsatz

P.S.: Sorry I logged with tomorrows date.

As logged below, this cache needs some attention - A new log and zipbag.

I regularly pass by the area for work so let me know if I can lend a hand...

This was our second find for the day - Homebush Bay was crazy busy today, but GZ was surprisingly muggle-free!

Found the cache without too much trouble (coords are spot-on), but couldn't record the find as the log book is totally soaked. Unfortunately I think it's totally ruined - not only can you not log your find the logs already there are washed out! . It's wierd, as the container was in a position that I thought would be protected from the rain!

We did our best to dry it out in the sun but we didn't make much of a difference. Sorry...

TNLN did not sign log...

Biggles on visit to Sydney, found with Kiwi Explorer.

Out for an early morning walk. Found with Biggles (hw33556). Not so small, more micro. Quick find. TFTC.

Difficult search owing to high muggle factor partiticularly young'ns interested in what youre doing.

out for a ride around , and find some new caches . great area for it .

cheers

Got this after grabbing 'the troll'. Left the gps unit at work, so I had to make do with paper. TFTC.

A great place to take some photos. The 2 little smurfs had their chance to find a cache. Olympic park is a great place to spend a warm Sunday afternoon.

What an out of the way spot, no-one here at all on an otherwise very busy day at the park. Seems like a little undiscovered little gem here, definitely a place for a picnic in the future.

Nice easy cycle over from 1788-1988. Nice part of an otherwise very busy park today. TFTC

Despite it being a Sunday we were early enough to be able to search for and find this one in relative peace and quiet. Pleasant spot.

Found at 1005. Continued on from 'The Troll' for a nice walk through the park.

TFTC.

On the run through the park. 2 of 3.
Logged in. Cheers.

I let GK2 and 3 look for this and they didn't see it for looking. another lesson in looking closely and feeling around.

TFTC

Found it and you're right, no hints needed. thanks

a beautiful day, 4 caches to boot. TYFTC

Searched for a while but couldn't find it
Probably just didn't look hard enough

Qick and easy find. Coords spot on. Signed logbook.

Hmmmm... wonder just what's under that hump? After a few Ibis moseyed out of the way; we grabbed, signed, and replaced "The Hump" between small muggle herds passing by. Thank you for sharing this part of the park, and for the cache Toonarmy!

me my three friends
still could not find it
hard one

Quick find, just far enough off the main track that muggles are slightly less of a problem. TNLNSL, thanks Toonarmy.

Foolishly went caching in the park on a sunny Saturday afternoon - and it was muggle central! Good thing this cache is out of the way, or I would have had to give up entirely TFTC

Ahoy Toonarmy!!
Left the office without a pen and this cached didnt have one. Still in its dislevelled place.

Nice easy find.

TFTC

Signed log.

Nice easy one at the end of a long bike ride and just before the rain came in TFTC. J&J

Nice early morning stroll. found it easily. TFTH

Too easy... Quick find is a good find.

I remembered that there there was a cache around the corner from 1788-1988 but I did not have it loaded up into my PDA.

Rest assured, I was ready for a swoop in this evening.

TFTC

Enjoying the warm day as I walk around the park. Easily found the cache and signed the log. Cheers - Rikki.

I'd been here a couple of days ago bike riding, but didn't have any notes (very depressing). Back today during my lunchbreak and the cache was soon found and signed. It's so much quieter during the week, and also with the holidays over.
TNLNSL, thanks for the cache,
best wishes,
Wal

Nice & easy find whilst on a bike ride with the kids.
Thanks,

My geo-wife grabbed this one before any of us had a chance to start looking.

TFTC. #7 of the 9.

Another quick grab on a wet geocaching sunday

#6 for the Olympic site.
Did with Crash07 and Robo64.
Still raining on and off, hence not too many muggles. Only a few on wheels.
TFTC

Went caching with Josh whilst the girls watched "High School Musical on Ice" at the nearby Acer Arena. Nice easy find with spot on co-ordinates.

This was the forth of four "Toonarmy Caches" attempted today. As it was the last Cache we were doing I let the Geogirl have two minutes head start before I had a go. I think I'll have to knock back the handicap as she only needed thirty seconds.

Funny Hump.

An easy find at Olympic Park.

Quick find at 13.40.... TFTH

Found on the way to the footy as darkness was approaching. Nice path so close to the busy road.

I found this one within seconds. This was 1 of 29 finds for the day. TFTC SL. Great little spot.

2:16am
Easy find one we read it was a MICRO, not a small.

Cheers

Found @ 1410hrs without too much trouble.
TNLNSL

Like many logs you read, mine have been saying, "Must come back here sometime". So often people, including myself, don't, but today we did. I'd agree with Webbie that a magnetic key holder is a micro.

A little light on for stickiness ...hope it hangs in there a while longer...

I wierd spot for a hump, but a perfect spot for a cache. TFTC

Took a little searching as I was looking for something a bit bigger. I had never been in this park before, as I thought it was too family oriented for a single man. The mangroves, however are magnificent.

Wow,
When I first started acching I often wondered why there weren't many geocaches in this great, expansive area.
Well, Thanks to a few cachers, including Toonarmy, there are now quite a few around here.
Would make for an enjoyable family caching day with kids of any age.
Thanks for the cache.

The last of our four finds on a bike ride around the park. Thanks Toonarmy.

A quick find as we rode around the park.

Out for a day of caching madness with The Rats and Gribbly. Easy walk from the car to this one...

Grabbed this one with The Rats & Hoojar - one of our 35 finds today!

A quick as we all enjoyed a stroll around the park. Thanks
