Unfortunately due to constant muggling, I suspect by the Bathurst Regional Council Parks and Gardens Department, I will archive this cache until further notice. Sorry for all the DNF's. I will endeavour to relist it at a later stage. Happy geocaching
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
the "SPATIAL FINDERS"were last seen with this cache and Koala Australian Magnet trackable in June 2010.
Had a look for this while out caching with TheWobblys and The-Don.
We were in the area for a week while staying at The Black Stump Hotel, Trunkey Creek.
This one has not been found since June 2010. Needs checking.
Thanks anyway.

Attempted on the way home after the “Scenic Web Lookin” Orange mini blitz. Unfortunately it would seem as though this one has gone. We even had a past finder present and it is not where he found it.
Late night numbers run led us to the area and although searching everywhere within a 20 metre radius of the area where we were sure it was came up blank.
Having a very successful caching day we approached this one with confidence. But no luck! We are pretty sure we were at the right place but couldn't spot it anywhere. Never mind. Just have to leave it for the next visit to Bathurst! Cheers..........Gaztek
Bit late logging this as a DNF but as it has not been found for a while I thought I should. Had a good early morning uninterrupted search with out success. I may have just missed it, or it may be gone. I'll watch with interest. David.
Found very quickly today and took out the track-a-bear PCH1YT and coin SGVG8F (both not logged as being in cache). Left coin PC2VWQ to move him further. SL.
This was our first cache we found. Thanks to ma&pa wilkes for showing us how it is done.
Dropped off Rivers of Australia to begin its Journey. Its close to the Macquarie River so lets see it visit as many rivers of Australia and then the world!
The last for the day. and the first for the log book.
Took magnificent geocoin. Will move it east. Didn't have a swap sorry.

Nice easy find even after dark, after my failure at Peregrination. TNLN. Thanks for the cache.
Cache has been replaced, it appears it was muggled recently. It has a new log book, this time in a zip up bag so its nice and dry! Please take care when replacing cache as the hide had been somewhat trimmed! Please bring a pen to sign log sheet as the cache is a bit smaller than the original and too small to hold a pen. Game on! Enjoy!
A quick find in a nice little park on a cold wet Anzac day morning. Replaced the sodden mass that was the log. SL. TNLN TFTC
Passed Jenna TB through.

Out on a day of caching in Bathurst and this one took a while to find as we had to wait till the traffic muggles departed. Log wet T4TC.
Tftcsl. Took good luck coins (not a geocoin), left tb. Log sopping wet, needs a zip lock bag as previously mentioned. Driving Sydney to dubbo. Cheers, jkokavec and shrewtree
In short..... NO !!
I was on a roll today and Bathurst was throwing up caches left right and centre
This cache was a tricky little find only because I couldn't find a parking spot for the geomobile nearby.
Then I noted the gates were locked !!
Which turned out to not be the cache as the cache was not inside the fence.
Then there was a muggle hanging about in the park, drinking.....[xx(]
I discounted the last problem as a problem after a couple of minutes though
Finally I saw the thing that I should have seen in the first place and the rest was, as they say, EASY [^]

Muggles foiled my first early morning attempt, back an hour later and it was a quick find.
Thanks

Stopping overnight in Bthurst. Found fairly easily, after work so not many muggles about. Thanks.
Found this cache at 4:35pm. Had some spare time to do some caching while in Bathurst for the weekend.
Great park My mum was in Quoto for many years, and they do a great job for the community.
Took: nil. Left: Bagged little wooden pegs.
No sign of tracables in cache.
Thanks Ozcaver1 for the hide.

Yep - we'd had our quote for the day as we approached midnight. A fairly easy find. Cheers Gav [4212]
A quick find this morning. I like how cachers will disappear from muggle eyes when obtaining the cache,
it eliminates the "tying the shoe-lace" manouvre.

The rain had decided to settle in when I arrived here. A hurried look soon revealed my prize. I wrote in the log all hunched over to keep it dry and soon had it replaced in its home.
Found it quite easily at 12pm sharp. No muggles around. Sunny, no wind and temperature 12C. Nice place to relax.
There are no Purple Kitty and All In One Geocoin 2007 whatsoever.

Found it! I did a walk by a few days ago but the muggle count was too high. No worries today, found it in quick time. TNLN SL TFTC

67 - Located fairly quickly but I had to wait for a gap in traffic before it could be retrieved. TFTC
Found by Mary & David at 0940. No, there's no cache quota. There's always room and time for just one more. The freezing weather kept the muggles at bay. Our thanks once more to ozcaver1.
Traffic and walking muggles were about at 8.40 but the hide offered plenty of cover for retreival and replacement. A nice spot thanks ozcaver1.
Found 9:40am. Was able to park nearby and avoid muggles while doing caching duties. TNLN Thanks.
Quick find with Shell_seeker while visiting Bathurst for the weekend. TFTC!!!
Found with matt_stomper on a caching day in Bathurst. A quick find and sign without being detected. TFTC
Nice quick find in the early hours, parked close by and made the streets ours, no one to question us otherwise! TFTC
Found this one in the Wee Small hours of the morning.
Red eyes and fading night helped us in the end.
Thanks for the cache.

We finally got the opportunity to grab this one after a little drive around the countryside. A quick and easy find late on a Sat arvo. Well done ozcaver1 - a good cache for your first hide.
Yep, I have certainly had my Quota for the day, this is my 43rd find for the day, 10pm, Goodnight, TFTC.
Thankfully there wasn't many people around on a Sunday morning to make this an easy grab. TFTC.

A nice quick find and the hedge provided all the cover we needed!

Muggles not an issue in the early part of the morning when we arrived. A quick find and then on to the next. TFTC

Found this cache with SecretSquirrel-BJC on our Bathurst Invasion weekend.
Fortunately we didn't have to search too hard, the cache was barely obscured. The park was worth the visit. Thanks for bringing us here.

My first trip to Bathurst for 34 years – came up through Booroowa and Cowra and headed home via Oberon and Goulburn. Although with that many caches, my memory has blurred, I have come away with a great appreciation of the countryside and seen more of the towns than if I was doing my normal touristy thing. I have seen historic locations, scenic locations, fun locations, tricky micros, easy micros, evil micros – fantastic.
Thanks ozcaver1 for showing us this lovely park.

Had time to fill in before the Event so with out the GPS we headed off for the find. Just after replacing the cache we spotted a Car load of ACT cachers looking lost in Bathurst.
Look forward to your next hide.

It was pretty quiet in the morning when we got here; I was still fumbling around in my backpack for my trackables when the others found the cache.

Had a muggle reading his paper and eating lunch in the general GZ vicinity when we came by. Managed to extract the cache, sign the log and replace it without him even lifting his head.
Thanks for the new cache.

As McPhan wrote, we heard voices - people walking their dogs late at night. Why weren't they home watching the telly - nearly as strange as our behaviour, hanging around parks, gardens and bridges at night. Thanks oscaver!
A continuation of our evening stroll around Bathurst had McPhan, Mrs Winglen and I up this street partly to check out the cache and partly to know where we should meet up for the event the next evening. Had the cache OK, but later on had to spend more time exploring the other end of town for the event site than we had anticipated. Such is life when you see it from Google Earth?
Thanks ozcaver1.
Thanks ozcaver1.
1877. We decided that we would do this one tonight rather than wait for the event tomorrow - that was lucky hey, Paul????????
For some reason we didn't see any hotel while searching for the cache. But we did find the cache and then all hunkered down behind the hedge as we heard voices. It would have looked funny if we were busted, and I'm not sure how we would have explained why we were all on hands and knees - lost contact?
TFTC and the fun.

Found at 1835. Expected the cache to be hidden elsewhere, and then a quick recheck off the cache size, and then knew where better to look.
THanks.

Had to revisit this one as too many muggles the first time.
Cache was a bit wet inside (pen needs to be put in on the diagonal.
