This cache has been ofline for 2 months now. Something has to be done??????

Found this one ages ago (with Muggle Mania) but forgot to log them ......
Parked down the street and walked up through the park.
Never new that this bridge existed.

This cache has been ofline for over 4 weeks now. The owner hasnt been online for 4 weeks. The cache should be fixed or Archived, to make room for other caches.

Will take a look and try to fix up this cache. Sorry about the delayed response.

We visited this one and were pretty confident that we were looking in the correct place, but no cache to be found. Considering the three previous geocachers' DNFs and the amount of graffiti on and around the area we believe it may have been stolen.

Found the spot, didn't find the container

Couldnt find the cache and the gps was taking me 20m away from the bridge. I search the bridge area and near the water but still couldnt find the cache. So i gave up and had my lunch in the nearby park.
Thanks for the hunt.

Found a pen, but no cache did we spy.......

Great cache find for my first day geocaching!

Container is a bit cracked but does the job.

Found with Daughter and Son-in-law while on an afternoon trip to the Illawarra Fly.

New to caching but already suspecting the hiding spot. Good hide though

Nice little suburban break.

Thanks for the cache.

This was as far north as we ventured today on our trip to Wollongong, McPhan, Zsazsa7 and I. A very quick find thanks.

Found at 3.10pm.

Found no problem.

Needs a Log Book, only a few loose pages in cache. Had to add another page.

Also Container starting to split.

Took nothing.
Left Waterpistol.

Found this one with a geonewbie friend. Left TB. TFTC

No space left in logbook

Found at 16:35.

OUCH!! I really scratched my arm up getting this one - watch out for the seemingly innocent looking concrete burrs. A nice, easy find on a sunny Sunday arvo though. Interesting history to the bridge and area too.

Thanks sejtraav

since finding out the owner cached, ive been ready to get this cache but never really had time...today we made time. Corrosivek and i walked to the cache, checked otu the plarque and took a quick look for the cache...had it in sight within minutes, getting hold of it was easier said then done. I suggest that maybe some camoflague or paint could come in handy to make it a little hareder to find...and less chance of being muggled. Thanks Paul

Since it was too windy and cold to enjoy a Streets icecream we settled for an easy-to-find cacvhe at an unusually designed bridge instead.

Haven't been having much luck lately so glad that we found this one to provide some encouragement - even though we drove down a lot of dead end streets before we got to the right place.

Found this one in company with Cranky Gekkos. Took a red dice and left a two headed dragon and a KateyBear. TFTC

Found this quick one after lunch. TFTC.

Found at 2240. Parked at the end of Colgong Crescent, and after a short walk the cache was found in a typical spot. Not a fan of these container as they are cheap and nasty. Thanks for a bit of history on the bridge. Hard to imagine this area flooding at the moment.

Thanks.

not to hard for me like the spot cache may need to be moved saw from 30m away

A little contortionism was required but I found it very quickly and was soon able to continue my travels.

It's still there but you wouldn't put a traveller there!

I'm looking to move this to a better location.
If any of the finders have a suggestion for a better hiding place around the bridge, please let me know.

No problem finding this one! Unfortunately it was muggled, I found this contents(or wath was left of it) spread through the area and a open container. Grabbed everything I could find and put it back in the container, put the container where I think it should be. Might need a check up.

Disappointed to see that someone had gone to the toilet nearby the cache and left the rest of the toilet roll next to the container.
Everything seems to still be intact though and we still enjoyed the hunt.
Thank you for the cache. Took nothing and left nothing.

A very easy one to spot from a distance. I like nice quick finds.

dip

Found a stack of cache notes that I found in a draw in the shed from a cache hunt down south. Checking GSAK this one slipped through the logging radar.

Tbone and I headed out early to beat the muggles and claim a Lucy and Roo unactivated geo coin. Well 1 out of 2 is OK. Looks like we were beaten to the punch on the coin.

Easy enough find on a lovely creek.

Nice quick find, could see it from 20 metres away and school holidays are only 2 days away. I'm with Hoojar this cache will not last long. Some heavy camo work is needed or a position in a craftier spot. Had coins to put in but left them in my pocket. Nice place for a cache though.

An easy find on a chilly evening for Chip Ding and I. The cache container I fear will not last very long. Not long ago I lived near here! Just down stream one might say. In fact I found my first few caches here and here abouts.

Thanks for bringing us back here. Oh, and the cache name is obvious

Cheers!

Found this one in the cold and dark. Was a very quick find. Which was good for me. I was happy to return to the warm car.
Cheers.

A nice quick one with The Rats on the way home from the event. So many places on this bridge could have hidden a cache but found in no time. TFTC!

A nice quick find with Steeba and the mini-rats. We just enjoyed some time on the beach but that didn t seem to slow my kids down as they ran laps of the bridge.
Thanks

another quick find after picking up geodad from work after the beach event. we dont think this one will last very long either came up against one recently that had not had a good run. but who knows it may be the exception. tftc

Mini Roo had this one in no time flat, it took longer to park the car. We found it on the way up the coast for the event today. Thanks for the cache and the history lesson sejtraav. It is still hard to imagine the amount of water that must have flowed through here in the floods.

Just returned from caching in Woronoora Heights so what better than on a bright sunny Saturday afternoon in the Gong than to grab another cache. The creek was clean and flowing nicely. The park looked well maintained and the cache in tact. Frangipani Pixie made the find whilst Mr Kc kept watch. Tried to find out why the name but no luck. It would be nice to find out! TFTC T coin and L a pen

Quick easy find. I think it will need a better container. This one will not last long in my opinion.

now look what we have here

Grabbed Geodog Jack and off to find this one as soon as it popped up. Rewarded with a FTF at 9:20pm. Another spot we would not have come to but for geocaching. Will come back in the daylight. Thanks sejtraav.
