area used to be clean but local ferals have made cache area unsafe. i am archiving this cache because i dont want people hurt because of others
Found it but I would not recommend going there,it's nothing but a black syringe box with the needle points sticking out the top,it was very dangerous and not a funny idea someone could of gotten seriously injured or a serious disease.
The needle box has been moved now but we counted 3 loose needles in the grass next to where the supposing cache was
PLEASE if you go be extremely cautious for needles THEY WERE ALL AROUND!

went 21 oct 11, right at gz but found black syringe box with syringes inside before anything else. Box is behind bridge on servo side stashed in rocks and locks like cache. Felt a need to let you know as it is a concern for other geo's and kids. We left after that with our own geokid and not wanting to return to risk area, goodness knows what is in the grass/tracks etc. Previous logs have mentioned needles and also a syringe box as well, perhaps a relocate is something to think about.
wrong side of the bridge!! Silly me- should've relied on the GPS more!!! Anyway, another good hide and find on my trip down to campbelltown ( mainly for skating but also for caching!!!)

Started on the wrong side of the bridge! Ooops and came very late at night with a torch. But found it Yay!
found it with the kids, wouldn't recommend taking little kids to this one, be careful of the needles and glass.
Easy enough find. Tftc.
Cache has gotten wet at some point. The ink has run make it near impossible to read though it was dry enough to use. May need checking soon. Plenty of room left.
Happy caching

Nice container but logbook is a bit damp. I wonder if those graffitti artists (?) would have any inkling that there is a GC right where they play? TFTC.
Out for a morning caching run with Deputy Dog and SherpaNT.
We took the easy way in and the hint, which is more of a tip, to easily access the cache.
Interesting container,

The canal group came up trumps
Nice container

Oh. My. Gosh. I know this was supposed to be easy-ish, but for someone with my (ahem) physical constitution, this was not the quick-and-easy drive by I thought it was going to be! First - how to get to where I had to be, then, the hunt...

FINALLY, a find. Then how to get back to the car... My tip - wear non-slip shoes. Thank goodness Eldest Mini Moff was with me, as I left my bag way back where I started looking. Five for five today - yay Team Moff!

Found with KimClive who wasn't bothered to look for it so I found it myself. Good hide. TFTC
After visiting our family in the local area, we decided to find a couple of caches along the way home. We reached the destination but was baffled as to how to get to GZ. With help of the clue, we found the cache in no time. A very interesting cache which was cleverly hidden. Thanks sgt.rios88 for the hunt.
Was out on the road bike today and I too took my bike down with me. I left it on the causeway why I did my business. Made a quick find TFTC
Found by Pi.
Walked my mtb down the "track" near the cache so I didn't have to leave it out in the open near the road. Cleated cycling shoes are not the best footwear for walking around locations like this and I had a few slips and slides while navigating my way to the cache. Found the cache reasonably easy but couldn't get the logbook out, had to give it a few hard shakes before it came out. Then a muggle took an interest in what I was doing so I had to walk back to where I hid my bike and wait till he was gone. Did the cache business, returned the logbook so it hopefully comes out a bit easier in future and moved on.

3 of us looked everywhere and could not find it. We went at at 6pm and also parked in the servo (we didn't have any troubles with that part) but the cache was nowwhere to be seen!!
My last sgt.rios88 cache for the day and as it turned out I was reading the wrong notes in my attempt to find this cache.
Thanks
Thanks
We cant for the life of us figure out how we have missed this one! Third attempt today, and sure enough, there it was in plain site right in front of us. Our first visit to the area we thoroughly searched the area, but after finding a black container with syringes and someones stash, we figured it would be best to lay low for a while. Today, we searched the same area with a bit more caution and saw the cache staring us in the face. TFTC nice hide and nice container
While I was still on my way stumbling down with the brummy knee, our youngest found it so I didn't have to go any further. TFTC
NickoHeap and I took the lead to go look for this one, and bless his little heart, he turns around and finds it before his dear mum, the WaywardWoman commits herself to an arse slide. I remember seeing this kind of container the other week when we were in Campbelltown. Thanks
After a brief search, the cache was soon in hand.
More a small than a micro size I would have thought, thanks for the chance to grab this one.

Same container as the first one I did today. Nice work. Your an expert in finding sneaky hiding places. TFTC
this was the last one for the day after 35 mins at the GZ we found it great place for hiding a cache in the area and did get the name for the cache from the song of the same name lol. TFTC
i wonder this caches name the song. the area felt like the car races from the movie "Grease".
Found this after a long day at work... A rather unsuccessful run on my way home was turned around after this good hide was found! Nothing worse than a tourch dying at 9pm no light no knowledge of the area I was in... Good to be home in familiar territory lol
FTF at 9:50am which I did not expect after leaving this one to be #3 this morning as I needed to pick up something from Officeworks on the way back home. But sure enough an empty log book! I don’t like graffiti however it is a shame that these vandals don’t respect others works. Those who are creative and do some art that is not offensive have others tag their work making it all unsightly. Standing here this morning reminded me of “Thunder Road” from Grease.
