South Maroota Memories. Maroota South, New South Wales, Australia

I headed out for a morning caching and found this cache instead of a newly placed nearby one! After a search I found the new one too. Signed both logs and returned this one where i found it. TFTC

Arrived here for another cache and found this one within the same structure as well. Left my monica on a full log,
Was interesting to see a lot of old caching names on the logs.

Lol, came looking for an ftf and found this one first. In great condition but with a full log. We found a spot to sign it and returned it as found. TFTC (and yes, we got the ftf as well) )

One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am 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 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Didn't find it while attending the GeoTrek. After talking to a previous finder at the finish we learned that the removal of the shelters means the demise of the cache.

Cache owner doesn't participate in the game any more and the structure the cache was formerly on has been removed. Time for this one to go.

Searched for a little while with no luck. Later were confirmed the cache site has been removed.

As per other DNF's today.

No luck with this one today Stopped by along the drive for geotrek 2014

DNF whilst out on GEOTREK 2014. CO should check this as the potential location (as per the photos) has been removed.

Cache location has potentially been removed by council and need confirmation of existence.

Looked for 30min high and low, no luck. Seems like it really was gone.

A reasonably quick find fortunately away from yesterday's troublesome fires. We soon hit this one for six! TFTC, Argeisia a Ca.

Found this one after competing in a moto trials competition at Pacific Park. TFTC.

Log is full.....

TFTC. Another place that I have never visited before.

Did this one at night whilst travelling through the area with whitemushroon and Kieran6, Found with a slight bushbash style twist! Thanks for the cache!

On an Ebenezer/Wisemans/Cattai sweep with All Strung Out and Kieran6 ... a peeved and disbelieving whitemushroom eventually conceded the navigator (ASO) with the map, might actually know where to go. By the light of the silvery moon, oh, no, by Kieran6 guiding torchlight a walk across light scrub to the GZ and find. TFTC

I live the reverse camera feature on my ipoo!! And not for selfies. Ha ha

Found this quick park and grab on a detour coming home from holidays at Wisemans Ferry. TFTC

Found!

This is huge family fun. Found it.

Another great find while in the area. SL TFTC

Parked the Geobeast about 48 metres from GZ and made the short walk through the bush and spotted the cache on approach to GZ. I didn't know about this park. Thanks for bringing me here. TFTCM
Cheers

Bring a tall friend for this one!

A simple find in an obvious location. It's good to convert this one to a smiley.

nice easy find. didnt take too long
thanks

TFTC. good hide, luckily no muggles in the area. the log is getting pretty full, may need replacing. took camp quality temporary tattoo and left jumping frog.

#3
On the way to St. Albans for work this was 2/3 for the day. SL and left a tattoo or two.

My youngest son thought this cache was very interesting as he got to get on the table and walk on the cricket pitch. It was a good spot to stretch our legs.

TFTC.

Another quick and easy find by Mrs C.

Nice Cache, TFTC

I was lazy & drove to the back of the park, parking as close I could to the cache. Short walk to GZ.

As I walked up I was expecting a certain type of cache, as there were so many places where a small or a regular could be hidden near here. Then I noticed it was a micro & walked straight to the hiding spot.

Thanks

First cache. Even found two cricket balls. Brilliant

Log is full
Nice walk in the park
Thank you

TFTC what a great location. Thanks for taking us to this place.
Thank you for making caching more interesting by placing this cache.

#1423
I drove around and down the road before I realised I couldn't drive right to GZ. Parked on the side of the road and walked through the bush to GZ. Checked a few places and then after reading a previous log, searched another area a little way away from GZ. Found straight away, Ahh found a few like this before. SL and replaced. TFTC.

Long time since this one was disturbed. I was about to give up here due to accuracy of GPS being all over the place. Gave it one last try and CIH signed and replaced.

Yep, it's there. Not too much else to report about this cache, which frankly isn't located anywhere that one might otherwise want to visit. Anyhoo, we came, we found, we continued on to Wiseman's Ferry, which was populated with masses of hungry people on this Anzac Day holiday.

In the area with pjmpjm so I thought to go look for this one, the cache was soon in hand. All is well with this one. Signed the log and returned the cache to its hidey hole.
Thanks for the cache.

Nice stroll over the cricket ground to find this well positioned cache.
TFTC

Quick dash from the road behind the park. No one playing on the fields today. Had cache in hand in no time. TFTC

Nice stroll and an easy quick find. sl. tftc

Pulled up at the park and there were two truckloads of council workers having an extended lunch break. Bless them. I ambled over to gz, but they were looking straight across at me from their trucks so I couldn't very well set about a thorough search. Eventually they left and I found the cache pretty smartly. Thanks Argeisia a Ca.

On our way home from a weekend away I stopped here and found this cheeky hide.
Nice park and cache.
SL and Rntd safe.

I found a log sheet outside of it's cache, probably a good thing as I might still be searching the stump my GPS had as GZ. SL #101.

Christine Vista, Chook and I headed out to Wisemans for a day of caching and found this one as we were heading home. Found it once we reached GZ. TFTC.

There was memories here for me. My cousins used to play cricket here when we were younger TFTC and the MEMORIES!

TFTC, found with benny.t

Easy find, TFTC

On a lovely Sunday drive we stumbled across this cache. Was a bit tricky at first with the I-phone pointing me towards the trees but figured it out eventually. TFTC

Reperio at 0815. Picked a good time to stop off and grab this one, as there wasn't a soul around. Parked at the gates and wandered across the field to find the cache sitting there safe and sound. Nice area, and would be very popular for events.

Gratias.

Easy find today. TFTC

No 12 for today.
Didn't take too long to find this cache.
Thanks for the cache argeisa.

Nice cache,
Had a cricket game, so I thought I might pick it up!!!!! A bit foggy and a nice cache altogether.

Nice walk in the park.
I located the log and returned it to the cache.

#for today: 1, TOD: Morning, Conditions: Fine, Cache Condition: Excellent, Others: Nil

Out for a ride with Glenferns this morning and decided to pick up a few caches on the way home b myself. Very quick find in a lovely parkland. What a fantastic day for a ride around these parts and a bit of caching to boot!.

SL TFTC

Only found a pencil and geocache explanation paper inside so used that to log in.

have been here once before to find this one... came back today with gps in hand to get a better fix on the co ords and had it found fairly quickly...

another attempt at this cache with 3stars... great hide tftc

TFTC good night cache

TYFC

Another case of " a nice spot I've ridden past too many times". Rode the DR around the back for a short walk and easy find; banged my head in the process of retrieving but there were no nasties to worry me in the tight hiding space. TFTC!

Found with TeamBooo thanks

Last find for the night as we headed home the along the back roads. Quickly found TNLN-SL

Towarded to the perfect GZ with sevabo but we were stuck here because the children were practicing their skills with the cricket nearby then we were very stealthed and waited for awhile then I grabbed it and logged it then put it back without being look at us oh phew! TFTH SL

Quick find after a day of waterskiing nearby! Was expecting a spider to jump out with the cache. TFTC

4th of 8 for todays caching adventure from home to Maroota and on towards a swim at Colo.
Arrived at this one just before the first ball was being bowled, Ratbags were all over GZ, sticks being poked in every hole (fearful of spiders) after reading previous logs, but Estreich Dad had the advantage for this one
TFTC

Sevabo found it before me. Nice big park. Signed the log. Thanks Argeisia a Ca

short walk to GZ with no muggles around nice drive in the country to the car ferry. found it with everlasting. Thanks for bringing us here...

TFTC. Thanks Argeisia a Ca! Found at a quick rate.

Bikerbuddy found this one rather quickly and we were just glad that we didn't hve to log a DNF on this, (even though I don't log DNF's). TFTC

A very quick find for the geohubby. He really was on a micro roll today! TFTC

I missed the cache the first time I looked at it. I don't think the spider webs covering it helped. But there weren't too many places it could be, and I've done a cache recently hidden in exactly the same way. So I retrieved the cache with a stick, just in case any of those spiders fancied it as their own, and all was well. Thanks

Drove to the back end of the field and walked through the bush to the picnic area.
Some boys were training cricket batting in the nearby pens, so we had to be cautious.
However, their training ended and we could check the only possible place we had not already looked in.

Found today with imgettingannoyed

quick find on a very quiet afternoon

Had this one on my 'radar screen' for some months and only needed the time to make the drive from Dural up north into this beautiful and very rural area.

Avoiding the extra walk from the main South Maroota Oval car park, I drove around via Paulls Road and walked less than 50 metres to GZ, through a thin strip of bush screening the picnic shelters and barbecues from the road.

Published coordinates are very accurate and the geocache was in the second place I looked. Container was in great shape and the little log sheet was fine. TNLNSL.

This location would be a good place to take the geofamily for a picnic or general outing if you're up this way. No dangerous places, no rubbish and -- today, at least -- no people!

Many thanks to Argeisia a Ca for another northwestern Sydney area geocache.

very good hjde found easily but thats experience and Ute Dog is a genius
yhanks
Acko

A nice easy find in the first place I looked. TFTH...SL...TNLN

Noting the time between finds, we were worried this may not be there, but our fears were unfounded and a quick find was had SL TNLN TFTH

Legged it across the oval in the heat, to the shelters.
I thought that it must be in the logical place, despite my GPSr telling me to go into the bush nearby.
In fact I would try a little WNW of the GZ coords, and search the obvious spot. It is in plain sight if you know where to look.
Thanks AaC for the hunt.

A quick find with no mugglers around. TFTC

Not far at all from the road out the back....easy find in a likely spot.

stopped for lunch here half way through our geocaching day, found after a small search. sl tftc

Being so hot today we parked as close as we could and legged it to gz, under 100mt's, found the cache quick sticks, nice park area but who would carry their picnic stuff that far ?? thanx for the cache

Gotta get lucky sometimes. Found it in the first place I looked. Stopped in the carpark and a late lunch.

Headphones were still on the table. Look like ipod ones.

TFTC

4:03pm
Easy find, someone has left their MP3 player headphones here. Thunder was really rolling around quite loudly now.

Cheers

Took a little to locate this de to the possibilities of hidy holes.

This way to be another quick find on way through. Turned out to take a little longer than expected. Just a bit of trial & error due to possible hidding spots until we found it. Not bad. SL TFTC

Funny place to put the BBQ and tables but at least it was in the shade. Just a matter of eliminating spots before I found it.

TFTCSL

Signed log. The park was deserted today. A nice easy find for me this one.

Tks Argeisia a Ca ........ GazMag

Quick stop on our way home.
JABs.

Ahh the memories... this used to be my haunt, and no doubt if I had seen torches at night I too would have chased them... back in the day.

Found 12:15pm quick find as my geo-wife prepared the coffee on the convenient picnic table. TNLN thanks.

Changed terrain and difficulty rating. Ta Ruffasguts.

After a few cache stops for my partner in crime Deputy Dog, we braved the Ferry man, and scooted off the other side, after some driving we neared the Park and spyed a large number of people not far from GZ, we decided to make our approach from below this one, parking such that we had a 50 metre mad dash through the bush.

To be sure Deputy Dog read the previous finders log and not being one for bugs himself decided to librally administer bug spray whilst I scratched around in the back of the car for some torches, it was as I slammed the doors and scrammled up the embankment that I heard this choking sound behind me, turning around to find Deputy Dog coughing his guts up from the smell of the bug spray, doubled over in agony from the look of him.

After I contained my laughter, I passed him the spare torch and we made our way to GZ.

The folk on the otherside of the park had many kids with them celebrating what I don't know, but as you'd expect our torches soon got there attention and we had about enough time (with them covering 100 metres at walking pace) to find the cache, log our finds and rehide the container before being mobbed.

As they covered their ground we heard comments such as "we see your torches" and "what are you doing over there?" as they started to walk a little faster DD scribbled our names in, not even having time to place a silver sticker!

In the cover of night I threw the container back in it's hidey hole pushing it back a little further to prevent prying eyes, then we hot footed it through the bush and back to the car - DD scarcely had the door closed as I pulled away with the headlghts still out.
Damn!! those teenagers were persistant little buggers, chased us all the way to the car!!!

Still we made our way out glad to put that experience behind us. THanks for the cache Sis interesting stuff!!

I should have mentioned that this cache cannot be classed as 1 star terrain as you could not access the cache from the confinement of a wheelchair, needs a tweek
