This cache has done its dash.
Mission accomplished !

Sorry to see this brilliant little cache get archived honestly was a pleasure being able to find it

Out clearing a few more in the area!

Nice little hide, no screw cap on cache so log is very wet.

TFTC

Cammo repaired.
Cache on !!

Wandered up to this one whilst visiting Mum for Mothers Day just down the road. Was an easy find, possibly explained by Aussie Tigers note below.

Visiting GZ this time to sign the log even though my reports of finding it were over a year ago. TFTC once again rogpol

hey rogpol not sure if this has been reported or no - but the cache has slipped from its normal hide and the camo has been stripped off.

Wandered off from a 6 year old birthday party to put the baby to sleep and this was a quick find even with the pram - thanks. No pen so couldn't sign

Another very fast find by geo daughter thanks

Geo daughter took off and had this one located while we strolled up to GZ

TFTC

Great park that I didn't know existed in my local area. Great cache camo. Tftc

Out for a bike ride with my partner. Nice park here with a dog area too - nice!

Our first geocache and so close to home!

Tftc. I found it. Went back during the day and saw it straight away. Good hide!

For the life of me I could not find this one! I will have to go back in the day time to have another search

We parked near the doggy area and walk across the oval. The Phone GPSr was behaving today and took us striaght to the correct tree. Once at the tree we easily spotted the cache thanks to it attachement mechanisum. Followed the CO's direction for removing the log and it slide out. SL and replaced

TFTC

Nice hide, if not for the attachment would have taken longer to locate. TFTC

Nice easy find, never knew this oval was here! TFTCM
Cheers

Took a bit but found it

This was a nice quiet spot today and we strolled to GZ for an immediate find. Really good spot, you'd never look there if it weren't for the gps pointing you! TFTC rogpol

Not a muggle in sight I walked to GZ but as I was about to grab the cache, 2 muggles decided they would come out and walk their dogs so I sat back awaited for them to pass. TFTC

My 200th find and what a great location to do so. TFTC rogpol.

Nice easy find. Thanks rogpol.

nice job on this one.

Cute camo!

The first cache on my walking tour today with nice sunshine . Its a nice place. TFTC and greetings from Germany searching_star

Nice camo. Took a couple seconds to find. What a great dog park nearby. TFTC. SL

Cute little cocoon - thanks!
Our dog loved running around in the open space.

A bit of a wet day today with light rain. Still managed to get some good caches located. Soon had this one found. SL TFTC

Left a brown squiggle with a stick as I didn't have a pen

Out for a Fathers' Day walk post lunch.

Thanks Rog.

easy found with geofriend and hide well...thank ...

Was 15 mins early for a client 2 blocks away so did a quick find.

1355pm, GAFF1, #13 for the day. We are surprised that this one has not been muggled.

This one really stood out for some reason, Cache in good condition, SL.

TFTC rogpol

Another good hide thanks Rogpol. I'm a big fan of the clever camo cache. It's almost like the magic eye puzzle sometimes you see the boat sometimes you don't. You get a few strange looks though staring at trees down the back of parks.

Wandered around GZ for a minute or two looking for something out of place... nope. Then looked the right way and there it was, easy to spot! TFTC, great placement/camo!

Reperio at 1620. Arrived at GZ with no one around, which is always a bonus, and while these types of caches can be tricky to find, this one didn't take to long to spot. Lovely big park.

Gratias.

Nice quick find in the dark using the iphone torch. Can't believe it hasn't been muggled yet. TFTC

A pretty easy find; cute little cache, thank you!

Can't believe this one! Hope it lasts

The last find for the day. Great camo.

quike find great camo tftc

Nice quick find, cheers

Nice camouflage!!

Found it at 5.45pm. Very dark and with an iPhone as a torch we finally found it. Nice hide. Ha no pen so we didn't sign the log. Nice hide

Nice little cache, something different to find.
TNLNSL, thanks for the cache.

Very cool for my first find! Thanks

# for today: 5, TOD: Afternoon, Conditions: Fine, Cache Condition: Excellent, Others: Honeysoy, Notes - Nil
Nice easy find in another Hills district parks. So straight forward in fact that we were both wondering how this cache isn't muggled as in its current position it is quite exposed. Camo is quite good though.
Maybe worth the CO checking out.
SL TFTC

Cache repaired

Took a couple of minutes to find - partly due to the presence of three trees rather than one to look at. The GPSr eventually pointed more at one and then the hunt was on.
As noted previously, the thread is barley holding, and the lid may fall loose/off at any time.

Clever piece of camo, this. The container thread is barely holding together, so don't overtighten. SL, TFTC.

We loved this little cocoon, this is our favourite one so far, very, very cleaver....TFTC

Nice quick find. I parked as close as I could and saved a bit of a walk. TFTC

Camo repaired.... cache on

Walked up from the dog walking area. There were lots of people around, but no one seemed interested in why i was wandering off to a quite area of the park.

Half the cammo is gone from the cache, so it was very easy to spot.

Thanks for bringing me here.

Very cool looking cache, easy find

Parking on freeman st
TFTC

Very unique cache! TFTC!

This was one of the coolest cache's we've found so far!

We loved looking for and finding this one so thanks very much for hiding it rogpol!

This turned out to be my 50th cache find and what a day to bring it up on!! This time I had my trusty Garmin with me, stood out on the cricket field so it could get set. Then off I went, until I got near GZ it was telling me where to go. But hey, didn't I check here when I last visited? Mustn't have been good enough for within a matter of seconds I had this little cocoon found. Nice work rogpol TFTC

Quick find just had to avoid a muggle exercising on the oval.
TFTC.

Easy find in a quiet park, only a few kids playing Cricket. Lived not far from this park as a child growing up. Many thanks

Quick and easy find.
TNLNSL. TFTC

GPS had me parking quite a distance from GZ but it was obvious where I needed to go.

Love the camouflage work. It looks like it's been here for years.

After spending a few hours caching before reaching here the conveniences nearby can also be recommended. Very well maintained.

A quick find in the rain. Think maybe the difficulty rating might be a bit high.

Difficulty rating reduced. Too many hints in the logs.
Cache on!

Tricky tricky, this one. I though nothing could be around here, and then I checked the logs...huh... 'nearly bumped right into it'??, Ahhhh, yes, I see. Wow, I am amazed at this cache. I bet it never gets muggled. Great work. SL.

GPS lead me straight to it. TFTC SL

Found after a short search around the base of the tree, I was concerned it had been buried by some resent soil dropped off at GZ, then I nearly bumped right into it, lol. Nice hide, TFTC

Sent from my mobile device.

New log installed. Cache on !!!

Great hiding spot! saw it within first minutes of searching but completely dismissed it.
thanks for the lesson hehe!

by the way your log page is full and i wrote on the back as a few people have done so also.
TFTC!

the camoflague is really cool ;p first cache for my cousins as well! TFTC ^_^

Excellent cache. The Camo job is worthy of a ghilly. Thanks

It was very clever how it blended in to the Bark tftc

3 from 3 for me today. I thought I will drop in and see what was nesting in the tree.
Tip don't look for this while in bright sunshine with Sunny's on !!!
No Butterfly's today just a nice little find.

Nice quick find once I looked from the right angle.

The park does look well used, but Google Maps shows a cricket match underway.

Finding the cache proved to be easy than I thought. However, retrieving the cache was a bit tricky due to a local trimming his fruit tree on an adjacent property. Due to the many trees, I was sheltered from his vision. Nevertheless, care is needed due to the many muggles who use the area. TNLN TFTC

Despite the scrutiny of 2 plovers and an Eastern Rosella we managed to find the cache. 2/3 of The Squints were present for the find (bifocal and spectacle). I wouldn't have wanted to try and find it at night [|)]

Rule 1 - don't trust the satnav. It wanted me to park 800 metres away and walk along the path, it doesn't seem to think I am quite capable of walking over a bit of grass to get to a path. But made my way within about 200 metres before I got out to walk, and if you looked at the maps you could get a lot closer. The doggie run area was quite busy but nobody over in the direction of the cache, and found it pretty much straight away. Thanks rogpol.

Nice one. The cache was so obvious we almost didn't find it. TFTC

After this cache I felt a bit embarressed. It seemed so... OBVIOUS after we found it TFTC

We spent a minute or two looking, then I checked the GPS, looked back up and it seemed to have appeared from nowhere. In the end, a very easy find. Thanks

Once geohubby found it, it was very obvious by the clue- great camo! TFTC

A quick bit of caching after lunch with Sensible Shoes and Shoes Junior.
SL TFTC

A nice easy walk to the Gz, but the hide eluded myself, but the geowife had it at the first place she looked. TFTH...SL..TNLN

I go to playgroup in the hall at the other end of the park, so it was nice to check out this part of the reserve. I'll be back to have a play in the nearby playground soon. TNLNSL TFTC.

A quick find with Sensible Sis and Shoes Jnr. TNLNSL TFTC.

No pen but took some photos for the record.

A quick find on a beautiful sunny afternoon. There was no one around except for a couple of plovers. These birds always get a bit cranky when you walk near them especially at nesting time. As to where the cache is..... it's just a matter of deciding which one it's in. Thanks Rogpol for an enjoyable hunt.

Had a really quick find here. Beat the whole family.

SL TFTC

Spot on! I found it with sevabo while a mugger was practiced on the golf range. TFTH SL

skyejam found it quick, Thanks for bringing us here

Clever hide - had me searching! This is a great park with something for everyone. Thanks for the cache.

Very nice hide! The camo is very effective, had me searching for a minute or two!

The coords are spot on too.

Signed the log, thanks for the cache

A very simple hide method, but very effective, good one Rogpol.
Thanks for the fun I had here.

Little Zac and I ventured up here before sunset to see if we could find it. Took about five minutes, but there it was. No wonder I couldn't see it in the dark - well camouflaged. Signed log and walked off into the sunset.

The little cocoon has not hatched yet, its still there well intact

Tks ...... rogpol ...... GazMag

No luck with this. Searching in the dark is probably not the easiest way to tackle this cache.

I saw a recent log for this one and wondered why I had not removed it from my watch list as I know I had found it. Just like the Wisemans Ferry Cache. Problem was I had not logged it DOH.
