Had completed the necessary calculations before attending soccer today. Short walk to pleasant looking GZ revealed an empty sistema container without a lid. Not sure if this was the container or not. Have sent COs a photo for confirmation.
Finally completed this multi cache!
I've done it the way it was intended by collecting the information from the sign then calculating the final GZ co-ordinates and heading off for the hunt. The only thing was I stopped here about two and a half years ago and quickly wrote down the information and left it for another day. Then it was off line for ages and I forgot about it.
Looking for a cache for today I noticed this one. I read up on the page and checked my calculations, still the same so I came on over today.
Plenty of parking as school's out for the year and a short walk to GZ. There I scrambled around for a while then decided it must be there and there it was indeed!

Previously logged under team account BoogieRogue. Re-logging with my individual account. Walked around the park 2 times before I realised that the instruction board in question is not there. Duh read the cache description... Working out the coords was a breeze, and finding the cache did not prove too difficult either. TFTC

Good news! Your cache is still there, hidden well, and all the contents are in excellent condition. Greetings from the USA! I'm here in Australia on a two week missions trip and staying with a friend not far from here. My first attempt was a cache in the nearby Quarry, but a tree worker was dropping branches near the cache and one nearly got me. So I left the area promptly and walked all the way here. Seeing the last log discouraged me a bit, but being a seasoned cacher, I knew to keep looking until I was sure I had covered all possibilities. As I hunted this fun multi, two large parrots were perched right above, chatting away. We don't see many of them in the wild in Ohio. I continued my search and spotted something a cacher's eye could and sure enough, there was the cache. It's got some good swag in it, but I unloaded all the TBs I brought from the U.S. into it so it's full now. Please take care of them and thanks again from the U.S.A. Tftc!
Really fun and challenging to find the co-ords, but when we got to the place, we could not find the cache. Eventually, we stumbled across an empty tupawear container with no lid and blue clips. It was in the general area of the co-ords and in lots of sharp, spiky ferns. Not to sure if this was the cache, but if it sounds like it was the cache, please check and make sure to fix it. Thanks for the cache.
Thought we got the coordinates correct but ended up in suburban street and didn't feel

Attempting to reach my 900 milestone today. This was the fifth of the morning. I had actually worked this one out some time ago (thanks to the info in the description) but forgot. So did the calcs again and only when I went to enter into the app, found updated coords already entered. There is still a fence around the entire oval but looks like it should be finished soon. Couldn't get a park until Harcourt St but I needed the exercise anyway. Enjoyed the stroll to GZ and eventually found cache on the Goldilocks level. Took TB from its slumber.

Today was the day to do a multi-cache for the "Mission GC" month organised by Groundspeak.
I like a good workout, especially when a large part can be done in the comfort of the living room. But once I had the coordinates, it was time for some real workout, and so I drove up to the sports fields and walked around.
Once on the trail it was not long before I reached GZ where a cache was quickly found. Mission completed!
Thanks for the cache Burkey Turkets.

Did the maths and was soon on track around the worksite. Other than mud no issues with access despite the construction. Found a good approach that left me wondering where this track used to go. Found a warm campfire at GZ, but no muggles in site. Still white ashes, dangerous, so I put it out properly.
Did the maths for this one at home, knowing I was heading this way today.
Git to GZ and wasted a lot of time in the wrong level, I was running out of time before my lift came for me but as I was leaving I suddenly spoofed a SPOR and finally had cih

Found it early on a warm Saturday morning. I did the maths and hoped I had it correct. Once again I had to find the correct level but soon found the cache. TFTC
#2675 (1 of 4 today) (Streak day 269)
After placing and sending my latest cache for publication, I decided to head east again today, targeting a multi that is only currently findable due to the largesse of the CO.
Got that and one other cache nearby. Then the publishing started. Only two close enough to go for, but I was just beaten to the prize by a local, AKA one of the usual suspects!
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
The first problem was finding a spot to park - schools not out for a bit yet, however the street next to the park is full of cars!
Got a spot in a side street and walked back - past the kiddies playing volleyball.
The park looks like it's getting close to reopening - the playing surface is all grassed and the sprinklers were going.
Moving cachewards, I soon spotted a way to GZ, and once there it was a question of level! Of course my first choice was the wrong one. After a fruitless 10 minutes I spotted something suss on the other level, so went there for the find.
Completed signing duties and replaced.
Back to *The Hademobile* and just as I was driving off my cache was published. That's quicker than last time!

We visited the cache today and the oval redevelopment is still under construction.
Unfortunately, the Exercise Area with the "WORKOUT" equipment has been temporarily removed so we will give you the information that you would have found on the sign boards.
This will help you "Work It Out".
These co-ordinates may be worked out by knowing that:
1 = Achilles Stretch
2 = Sit and Reach
3 = Leg Stretch
4 = Hamstring Stretch
5 = Thigh Stretch
6 = Trunk Stretch
HAPPY CACHING.

After collecting the nearby "Lots o' Drops", to qualify for the first "Geocaching Road Trip 15" souvenir, we thought we would look for a few more before heading home.
Found the required exercise equipment, did our "workout" by finding the correct signage, and then sat down for another "workout" (mental) calculating the final GZ coords. Then off we all went walking to final GZ (another "workout"?) and soon arrived where we needed to be. Spotted a Brush Turkey wandering around near GZ.
Searched high & low for quite a while until finally uncovering the hide some 14 metres from our calculated coords. Not sure if it was our calculation error or if the coords are out, but regardless we now had CIH. SLTN but added another golf ball that we had picked up on the way.
Thanks Burkey Turkeys for the nice little afternoon "workout", and for the cache.

4108. Found with Relish64 and Tanso. After a trip up the Hume from Canberra to attend the event, we had some time up our sleeves to track down some local caches.
This one popped up, so off we set. After a bit of a wander in and around some football games, we finally found something of interest. I initially disregarded it as the girls grabbed some hot beverages from the van nearby. Upon a closer re-inspection, we gathered some numbers and headed off to our GZ.
After some searching, the goods were found where one of us had previously looked. Well, sort of!!! It took a mans look this time.

Came up from Canberra today to go to the 15 year event, so we grabed a coffee and made our way to get all the info.
Once we went down to GZ it took a while to find but we did

Got it after a roundabout approach, only afterwards noting a more direct and easier path. Keep it up!
Had to use intuition in the dark to fond the equipment but it was fun after that, thanks for a cool hide

Nice short multi once you locate the fitness gym equipment. Practised a bit of CITO at GZ, all good Juled, nice hide
I found the exercise equipment, and 'worked it out'. Once at GZ I scrambled around looking in all the wrong places. I eventually went to where my GPS actually told me and found it without any dramas. Nice spot here, it looks like a few locals like to get drunk here. I don't blame them, but it would be nice if they could take all their rubbish with them. TFTC!
In the poring rain we did and redid our calculations which indicated a likely spot, so off we marched to the GZ. On the way we spotted a Brush Turkey which we took to be a good omen. Once at the GZ we soon had the cache in hand. TFTC.
Decided to come down and get a few of the north shore caches I used to drive past to and from work most days before the office moved and I became a train commuter. Lots of soccer going on here today, but I parked near the excercise equipment and gathered the required information. Off into the bush to hunt for the cache and it was found very quickly in the second spot I looked. Grabbed a travel bug, thanks Burkey Turkeys.
Found with CJ today after we notice it had been re-enabled.
We were a little confused at first about the additional waypoints and headed to the first, which were the coords of the online description. Nothing there. After a few mins we saw some exercise equipment on the other side of the oval. Once we got there, there we could find the instructions details for "series 3" and "series 4". After a little more searching, "series 1" showed up in very small type. We can only assume the other way points were for other exercise equipment around the oval that has since been removed by council.
After working out the GZ coords, we headed of to find the cache. Some of the logs were indicating the lower level and we spent a good 25 mins searching to no avail. So searching a little more widely, we found the cache about 8 metres from where our GPS was telling us. The container is brand new and it is all in order. It was a little more tricky than we expected. We signed the cache and replaced it exactly as we found it. CJ dropped a Koala TB.
Thanks Burkey Turkeys for another of your caches. We enjoyed ticking this one off our list of nearby caches. SLTN TFTC

Figured out the GZ coords from the mini Series1 and made our way to the GZ. As AM said, spent a good amount of time there before realizing we were looking at the wrong level. AM made the find. SL & R. Took nothing, left a TB. TFTC, BT
Cache check today. It is now ready to go with a new log book.

Found the miniature instructions at the work out equipment and set about solving the sums. Double checked once I'd finished and got the same again, so set off towards calculated GZ. Once at GZ, height became a consideration ...high or low? From previous logs, a medium height seemed to be suggested ...and PAF resulted in a low height indicated. Searched for quite a while but all I turned up was a bit of torn up snaplock bag (see image) and many, many spiderwebs lol >_< Hopefully I was at GZ (I may send my co-ords to CO to double check)... but maybe my caching eyes just weren't up to the task today. This isn't really my local area, so it'll probably be a while till I stop by for another look. Lovely bit of bushland none-the-less!
My son was playing a soccer match at Koola Park, and the corner of the field where he was playing (south east) conveniently has a / the sign required to Work It Out, so while he was warming up with his team I quietly figured out the required co-ordinates. After the game we first found the other nearby cache and then headed around to this one. I only had the iPhone, so reception wasn't great near GZ, and we got our altitude wrong at first (some lovely places to stash caches where we first looked ) before correcting, and from a specific angle I was able to see the container sticking out. We took and left nothing, signed the log, admired the view, then returned to our car and home. Thanks for the cache!

After reading in the logs about difficulties in finding the information at the waypoints, I set about determining GZ using different methods and soon had a set of coordinates which looked sensible.
I walked around from the nearby “Wallaby's End” and soon had CIH.
Brilliant spot, thanks Burkey Turkeys, it deserves a favourite.

Quick cache check today.
All is in order. Cache box is still in its original position and a substitute sign is definitely there to work from.
Happy Caching!

Got to WP1, and like others have said the equipment is gone. However, unlike the others, I couldn't find a substitute sign to work off.
Other possibility, is that I was doing something stupid - which I wouldn't rule out either

This was the last of 4 caches found on a warm Easter Monday afternoon with my son, Tyreless.
I left the walking stick in the car and we wandered over the playing fields to the exercise equipment. A fit young man was working out physically while we worked out mathematically.
With the coordinates calculated we walked to GZ, doing our best to avoid the lantana, springaree and other weeds that demarcate the oval from the neighbouring bushland.
Tyreless made the find while I watched and then we signed the log. Lovely day and a nice spot; thanks for bringing me here.

I took my mother (E Rabbit Esq) out for an afternoon's geocaching.
For an slmost-85-year-old my Mum is pretty sprightly. She didn't "work it out" physically but she did mentally. Plus she had no problem making the walk to GZ. I love her and remain impressed by her vitality.

Thanks

we read the previous logs about the construction and when we arrived at WP1 thought the equipment had gone but then soon worked it out as to what was required. We found the mini version of the clues and then with a double check headed bush. A short search and we soon had made the find. We signed the log and re hid. TFTC
There's some construction going on at the oval and I think the WP1 info might have gone!
01/10: Finally got around to logging this - found on 23/09 with Kid Ron Satan, Techno Marksman, Edtam26 & Leprechaun. TFTC! [8)]
Our first Multi cache! Have been past this oval many times but never stopped in. This was our 4th of 5 caches today - may need to do some of the stretches tonight. TFTC
23/09/12 4:04 PM. Cache #112. 4th of 5 caches today with Yelyac, Edtam26, Techno Marksman, Leprechaun & families. And 3rd of 3 Burkeys for the day. Enjoyed this multi although we made our trek to the cache wp a lot more complicated than it needed to be.
Spent the morning finishing a DIY project that just had to get finished and then just had to get out of the house.
This one was within easy reach of Chatswood where I need to be at 3:45pm.
Arriving at GZ I thought isn't there supposed to be exercise equipment here? Oh I get it you're meant to exercise! As previously mentioned in the logs some of the info has been vandalised but it is still possible to calculate GZ. When I saw where it was I went back to the car to get the Garmin as the phone isn't too crash hot in the bush.
The final place was very peaceful and after signing the log I sat down to take it in as I was way ahead of schedule. Then back to the car as I was conscious I was posted near a high school on Year 12 muck up day.

Thanks... took only few minutes that was correct coords but after that searcing wasn't so easy. J-LEST-TEAM
Got the coordinates last week after doing another cache near by. Bad rain prevented family continuing on. Returned to get the prize itself today. A little too high, the a lot too low but then came in at the just right level.

We worked it out. And saw a very cool remote control flying saucer too. And got to where GZ was meant to be but incoming clouds made us abandon the search (Just as well, a re-check of the calculations showed that we were slightly off!) By the time we got to the car it was absolutely pouring! Will be back another time. Cheers... Gaztek
Wondered if it wouldn't work with the missing board, but the information was still accessible. First multi in a while. At the geozone we spent 30mins looking and were about to give up when fossfellows had another idea. TFTC
even though one of the boards containing some of the coordinates was missing we found a smaller version...........

Finally decided to work out our first mystery cache. Wasn't difficult at all. This cache is just a few hundred metres from our house. No pen in cache. Dropped Bryandale TB. Tftc
Found after a nearby afternoon job. Made the calculations and wandered to GZ with only a couple of cricketers practising in the nets. Looks like a muggle with a fixation on the male appendage has visited GZ judging from the number of them drawn in the log book. I removed the offending pages (bar one which had logs on the reverse). Otherwise the cache remains in good condition. Thanks again Burkey Turkeys.
Visited WP1 some time ago, but messed up the calculations. Easier this time. TFTC
Found WP1 some time ago. A missing panel was cause for concern initially but on closer inspection the required data was collected. Miscalculated GZ first time around. Eventually got it right. Finally had time to get to GZ today. Straight forward find (if you do the calculations correctly) TFTC
Went to the listed spot and spied what I thought was the exercise spot. On getting there, it didn't seem to cover the right series so circumnavigated the oval looking for another, while watching the two, simultaneous cricket matches in play. On returning to the original, had a realization and kicked myself (#13 in Series 7 - Idiot exercises). Must have got the maths right because after a little more walking the cache was found. Certainly a good "excercise". TFTC
We really like this type of cache where you can collect information no matter how many people are about, then find and log the cache in privacy. It turned out to be a quick find in a nice location. Made no swaps. Thanks for the (mental) exercise and hide.

This is a simple, yet effective multi for anyone that is not sure if or how to do them. I liked it.
Parked and with soccer School everywhere, I wondered how this was going to go. Got to WP1 and had a confused look on my face. What the...where is it? Oh, re read the description and off I was...hehehe... Found the exercise equipment and made the easy, yet somewhat challenging sums to get the finall coords. Could be tricky if your not paying attention. Checked sums twice and off I was again.
Walked around the fields watching the soccer teams and then off in the bush I went. Gps took me right to GZ and I came up trumps the first place I looked. TaaDaa !! SL. TNLN and replaced again.
A clever, simple, yet fun Multi I recommend. DO IT !! TFTC

We found the first set of coordinates over a month ago. After some intense cricket we found the access point and entered, put down the cricket bag and started to look. Looking up and down the rocks. Was about to give up when we returned to the cricket bag. It was on top.

Accompanied with sevabo and skyejam still work out this one but not sort out yet due to graffiti on the sign board - sevabo sent a emal, wait and hear from the owner. Thanks.
What a lovely day to be out caching. Firstfind for the day, luckily I had TLM Junior with me to do all the calculating bits. Wouldn't like to try this at night but during the day it is a nice little walk.
Thanks BT's for another good quality cache, we need you back

I suppose technically Daljon and griz4b are correct...
But then we obviously can't think outside the square!
Managed to actually follow the instructions this time (again in the dark), but torch was failing.

Swapped TBs
Working our way through the neglected multis and mysteries in our radius and we decided to do this one after school on a Friday before a long weekend. WRONG! Traffic was appalling! But in leafy Killara it was a lovely sunny afternoon after the coldest morning of the year to date. We found the signs, no not here, not here, oh this sign! You can't really miss it, just remember to look on BOTH sides of all signs there.
Did the calculations, some funny little algorithms for the OC boy there and then off to the cache. Geoboy had a bit of trip right before the precipice which gave me a start but all good, no fall. Should look out in future. Found the cache quickly but made no swaps, the quality of swaps only seems to go down over time, we're going to do our bit and do a little re-stocking of some of those we find from now on. Was going to take the TB but it said to leave it there, can't be bothered writing down codes to 'discover' it, don't really understand the point, so it stayed there.
Thanks BTs! When are you coming back to geocaching? We need you!

Not sure what all the confusion here is about with finding the first series board. Pretty straight forward for me.
Arrived at WP1, spotted the place I needed to be, walked over and read the introduciton board, grabbed what I needed, calced the solution and made my way to GZ.
All is fine with the cache BTW. No moisture inside and the log book is fine.
I am sure glad I did not come here at night as I found myself very procariously close to the edge of a cliff. A mental note for those that follow; "Be mindful of the young ones that are with you".

Well I walked all around the oval and found Series 2,3,and 4, but could not find Series 1. I even asked those playing and walking their dogs around the oval. The co-ordinates put me in the middle of a football match. Something is wrong here. Could the owner please give me a hint.
Just confirming that the "Series 1 " board is still in its original position.
Alright, I admit I was there late late at night, but still couldn't manage to find WP1 even!
I looked all over the place, in the dark, but couldn't find the Series 1 instruction board.... Series 2, 3 and 4 were obvious, and other nearby boards...
Was I just blind in the night?
I'll have to wait to see if there is another finder, or if the Series 1 board is actually missing. (Too far away to re-attempt soon

we to find this one on a very wet day we got really muddy and my fell over a big rock and got really hurt but he is ok.after a couple minsers we finally found the cache and wrote in the log book. after we put it back we ran as fast as we could beacause it started to rain.
Easy way to get fit if your maths are wrong.
Found it on the second attempt.

Found this one with Smurfyguy who insisted in walking all over the area before actually seeking the cache. Some muggle kids were playing cricket but they didn't affect us. Although a hot day, nice area to be in. TN LN SL TFTC

After wandering across the oval 3 times before working out what I was actually supposed to be doing, the cache was a nice quick find. The kids on the oval seemed to be enjoying their game of cricket.

A nice simple Multi testing the geokids metal maths....
Took a little while searching one level to low until we moved to the next rocks up and quickly had the cache in hand.

Nice multicache, you did not have to work out the final coordinates by running around to all different places and thereby getting a real work out.
Calculating the coordinates using the clues was also straightforward, which led us quickly to GZ and the cache.
Took a fly, left TB HOTEI.

A good type of cache.
At first try we realised that we had our maths wrong, so we went back, recalculated and found it at the exact location, which was 0.20 minutes to the North of where we were ten minutes earlit.
Thanks the Burkey Turkeys.
