Its had a long run, and I want to clear the area for a long river PT.

Saw a really cute lizard watching while I signed. The log is damp. Tftc

Good hide

Saturday morning and a few people on the walking track but I found it.

Nice quick find for the kids. Have advised RS that a bit of maintenance wouldn’t go astray, co tents a bit damp. I’ll put a new bag in for future treasures, to help keep them dry. Nice spot on a sunny morning. Thank you.

Located at 4:55pm. #922.

After snagging the nearby 9:58 hide, I made my way to this one. Happy to make this find as it fills another blank on my Jasmer Grid and it’s a very early de facto RS hide, thanks for adopting it and maintaining it in the field. I enjoy trawling through the logs of the older hides and seeing some very different caching names and personalities. Interesting to see who still plays the game and who doesn’t. These logs are time capsules, little snapshots of a time long gone. It will be fun to read these logs again in a decade or so .

Большое Спасибо! תודה! L’chaim! TFTC!

2nd one found with bulldog Trev and happyJackie Abit dark out and lotsa mossies. Cache log abit damp. Thanks from Canadá

Found with ausmacuser and patsy12345
Also found missing geocoin SGN5ZC which is now being held by patsy12345

Seemed too easy to be a rainbow spirit cache. Wonder if it’s wondered? Tftc tnln

Found, a good lark

Quick find today whilst out finding missing months. All good at the cache Thanks for the placement Cheers

Super easy, found it in less then a minute

Easy find

Wooo great day. Great find

We were going past near here on the way home from work today and noted today was also an empty day on the calendar, so we decided to detour... got it after sunset but before the gates closed. And that’s Hidden Creatures Done for me!

My geodogs hadn't been out for a drive in a long time, so Deep_99 and I decided to find a walk that they would enjoy that had a cache nearby for us to enjoy. Nice quick find. SL #3624 on streak day #2180 TFTC

Sunday afternoon walk with Ris768 & the Geodogs, thanks Rainbow Spirit for placing this cache

Nice spot, TFTC

Nice quick easy park and grab TFTC

Quick little find. Tftc

Thanks

Nice and easy to find. Park and kittle walk to GZ.

Nice and easy!

Found it! I’d rate 7/10 easy to find!

TFTC

First of three finds while out and about in Chipping Norton this morning.

Arriving at GZ, a quick look around on the ground revealed an object that only half matched the cache name, so I ignored it. I then spent the next 5 mins checking all obvious places before deciding to decend lower to check the object that first grabbed my attention. Of course it was the cache! Signed the log, added some swag and removed the packet of chips (please no food swaps people!) I then needed to decide where to return it....I think I found where it was intended to be. This one will be some nice points for Geosport’s Boxing challenge!
Thanks for the cache Rainbow Spirit and for introducing us to this gem of a location!

Easy find. TfTC

We have also found this cache during our Tour through Canberra.
A nice and easy find whilst our for a walk.
Thank you for the cache

After doing one of the Spash n' Cache series and another of the CO'S caches marj01 and I drove over to Angle Park to launch our kayaks to proceed on the Spash n ' Cache series. Reaching the park we were greeted with locked gates to the park. As we had half an hour to fill in we headed over to this cache where we had a quick find. TFTC Rainbow Spirit.

Dropped into this cache as gates were closed to boat ramp to launch our kayaks. quick find
TFTC

Found pretty easily team work

Nice easy find

Meeting up with phlphotos this morning for a bit of caching-by-kayak. Phil suggested I stop at this one on the way in. TFTC

This one was almost too easy. I have not been around here for a long time and was a bit surprised by the new appartments nearby. They must have floodwaters flowing through the bottom level from time to time.

The view must be amazing.

Thanks again, Rainbox Spirit

#1444 camevhere early & had a bit of a wander around the farmer's markets just back along the track. Got near GZ and wandered around a bit. While wandering spotted something I thought looked good but then didn't check looked in a few other tight corners but on my 3rd time around checked the spot & there was the cache.

Found a spot & signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the cache Rainbow Spirit

One more find on the way home from the GCNSW Event nearby. Found easily, then hidden with extra camo so it doesn't roll away. TFTC

Found with my Geodad EverestHigh and ADI. First attempt I had to battle Lantana seeking new patches of ground which could hold a Geocache. Thinking we shouldn't have to go through these spiky bushes, and that the coords where to far off, I retraced my steps to leave... Later knowing what to look for we tried again, it was very obvious but just off where I had ceased to search. Glad to find the cache and place it back in a more suitable hiding spot, not far away. TFTC Rainbow Spirit!

Luckily, at the event someone told us about the final location of the cache through a video... And I don't know how we missed this !?.. my phone's GPS wasn't being nice and friendly.. It was lying in the open like a piece of trash. Also, it is not an ammo anymore..
It was moved to a secure location that makes more sense to the coords..

DNF this cache. Did find a new stump, is this big boy gone?
TFTC Rainbow Spirit

It may have rolled away from GZ. We put it back where we thought it should be. TFTC Rainbow Spirit

Time for one last cache after the Merry Geocachemas event today.

As we approached GZ Flutterbyswquishy had just finished adding her additions to the camo so a quick find was possible

Tftc

Hubby helped me make the find as he found it previously, then the bebes rocked up.
This cache is now full of little treats for the kids...
Nice to meet the bebes ...
Jammed into a proper hide hole. And with a old house brick to keep it there. Tftc.

Good first find, thanks!

Out for a bike ride and a quick cache.
Thanks

Tftc was a great spot!

Found the area that the hint referred too easily but came up empty handed here even after widening my search.

Easy one, clue gave it away.

Good place

Easy one TFTC

I found myself out and about near this cache so decided to go and find it. Parked the car nearby and then headed over towards gz. At first I wasn't sure where it would be, but then saw a little track. With the hint I narrowed down my search and then spotted a likely cache hide - and the larger than expected cache. Luckily there were no muggles around to see what I was doing, so I signed the log and replaced the cache as found. TFTC

GREAT! Kids loved it.

Watch out for spiders. Photo posted by clan of 6 was a great hint. Found by sandy & imogen.

Found by Max bill Deb and all. This will become addictive

What a pleasant park right by Chipo Lakes. Parked nearby and headed over towards GZ.
There was the occasional muggle out walking, but plenty of time between them to dive in take a look, do the business and out again. I also had Mrs A standing watch and advising when the coast was clear. A neat hide and TFTC Rainbow Spirit.

Enjoyed a nice stroll to find this one. I suspect the geokids will be taking us to the playground as our next stop. TFTC

Found with Sensible Shoes and Shoes Junior. After we found the cache we had a play in the playground. There was some cool equipment.

A short walk to find this one, then it was off to the playground.

Nice walk along the water. Thanx for a tick in my found month matrix.

Love this spot!

Quick easy find on a nice stroll with geo kids. On the walk from the car geo kid 7 said someone's house was flooded. After laughing we had to explain it was a water ski jump

Nice walk in the park

Looked for a bit but found it.

Easy find. Not much to trade. Enjoy the dinosaur

Only my third find. Great hiding spot!

A nice bike ride around the lake, doing some geocaching as we ride along. TFTC

First one found!

While taking advantage of the beautiful sunny Wednesday I went out on the bike and had no destination in mind but somehow found myself here. I had no idea this even existed, what a nice little spot. Made the find fairly quickly

Third find in today's lunch break thanks

Found with Decrypter. An easy find while in the area. Lots of spider webs across the geotrail. TFTC

#2744 (1 of 3 today) (Streak day 283)

Positioning myself for a big caching day on the 29th. So, just the three today. Decided to so south to Chipping Norton - really need a kayak to pick up the lake caches - as there were a few unfound traditionals close together.
Got all three - HUZZAH!
Then home before it got really hot.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Decided to start here and drove into a nearby car park and walked to GZ.
Started wondering, as I closed in, what would be the best approach. Then I spotted a geotrail! I think I have my path.

Nice quick find here - it's not really hidden so much as obscured from casual view.
Opened it up and completed signing duties (log damp but signable), then replaced - it wants to roll, so needed to be careful in the placement.

1st of 5 this morning - Chipping Norton, Warwick Farm & Moorebank - trying to find the rest of the non-Splash 'n' Caches in this area.

Thought I'd warm up with a nice, easy park and grab. On to "Citrus Torque" next. TFTC.

Found it but the log on is wet.

Found it!

Nice find while having a picnic by the lake. TFTC.

Great spot to hide a cache. Was good for the kids. Glad I do not eat fish here!!!

Almost too easy.

3rd cache of the afternoon. Weather held up. Tftc!

Well it's black alright! Tftc!

No TB's present today. Wave runner caching with mcharles64 and the geokid for the day. TFTC.

Out finding cages on the jet ski with geoson and Wollaston.

Cache was a bit uncovered and possibly not in the right spot. We put it where we think it belongs and covered it up a bit.

Trackables visiting Chipping Norton , Sydney before taking a trip overseas.

What a lovely area this is. Love the multiple parks and walking tracks. Found this quite easily after a peaceful stroll early in the morning before it got too hot. Great one for kids. Thanks

Nice easy find before heading home.... tftc

Wandered along this picturesque area while waiting for vehicle repairs to be carried out and decided there just had to be a cache here somewhere - how could there not be? So indeed I was not disappointed, and found this clean, dry tidy cache skillfully hidden with a handy fallen branch nearby to sit upon and sign the log. Well done, Rainbow Spirit

Found it! Nice walk by the lake. TFTC!
