Bus Stop Shelter Nelson, New South Wales, Australia
By AussieCacher on 23-Feb-11. Waypoint GC2P7YR

I had a quick look and it looks like its gone. Time to send to the cache gods....

Not located even with the assisatnce of GazMag who had prevuiosly found it. I think its gone walk about.

We didn’t find it today then talking with another cacher latter on who had found it told us that we were looking in the right spot. I hope we just missed it and it hasn’t been muggled.

Not today

Saw some big spiders! Lots of muggles even at night! Nice cache container!

Had to make a 2nd visit to remove this one.

Found with Bedmaker, Gunnie69, Kaisho53, Ghost Gums, lochb, La Kedi, an Rebel Acts on our Sydney caching weekend.
Nice sneaky hide.

Down from Queensland for a weekend raid with Tassiegirl13, Gunnie69, Kaisho53, Ghost Gums, lochb, La Kedi, an Rebel Acts.
A quick find for the group on the way past today.
TFTC

As we descended on GZ (LochB, GhostGums, Gunnie69, LeKedi, Rebel Acts, Bedmaker & Tassiegirl13 & I) we had fingers crossed area would stay muggle free..

After a bit of a search GhostGums soon located the container

Log was soon sighed...

Thanks AussieCacher

This was, cache # 26 of 51 finds for the day, On day two of the MCBC raid on Sydney. I soon spotted it but had to grab an extraction tool from the car, it sure was jammed in there. My thanks to AussieCacher for the cache.

An easy find with the group form interstate. I wondered whether the actual cache we found was how it is supposed to be... [?] There is something missing in my perspective but it could well be intentional... [^]

Cheers AussieCacher.

You get to see a lot of bus shelteres caching in these parts of town.

Tricky hide!

Found while spending an enjoyable weekend finding caches around Sydney with Gunnie69, Kaisho53, lochb, La Kedi, Tassiegirl13, bedmaker and Rebel Acts.

Too many spiders for me to want to search with much diligence, albeit mostly smaller ones. My somewhat taller friend found this one, but then we had to return to the car for a retrieval tool. Finally in hand, signed and replaced, with nary a curious glance from passing motorists. TFTC. =^.^=

Found in the company of the MCBC - 2 of us from Vic, and 6 from Qld - on a weekend raid of Sydney caches.

A quick drive by. TFTC

Logging TB visit

I had been out and about checking out locations for an event I'm planning for next year. On my way home I knew I was going to pass this location so thought I'd stop for another look. On my previous visit it was pouring rain so ended up giving up as I was getting soaked. Today was a different story. I found the cache in the second place I looked.... well... felt!! A simple hide, well placed! Thanks AussieCacher for your work.

Nicely hidden - very tricky. SL TFTC

meet sevabo us, lovely day for us

#26 for today with Baktrak. Had searched an identical shelter elsewhere and found nothing. This was beginning to feel/sound/look familiar when, bingo! SL. TFTC.

Found with sjamp, who put his fingers on this unusual container first. TFTC

I pulled up to the location geowife had cache in hand before i even got out of the car,very quick one,tftc.

I have got to start looking at the cache names

TFTC, SL, great hide cheers

Well this was a tricky little hide which we found relatively quickly. We admired its style before replacing it. Another one on our NW caching trip today.
Thanks!

Nice quick find. Sticking out. completely hidden when put back. TFTC

i found it thank you AussieCacher

Literally found it right away, the hint helped! TFTC

Thanks to Steveishere for performing some maintenance. Cache on...

Hi Team,
Please be advised that the cache container has been repaired and a new log is inside.
Regards,
Steveishere

Found today while caching with TeamBooo, Boo'sDad and Glenwarra69.

TFTC, found with benny.t

Nice and surprising hide. TFTC

Nice easy find....clever hiding....log is still very wet....TFTC

Had passed this spot a week earlier and decided to wait for a quieter time of day. Found in the obvious spot after eliminating ather possibilities. Very clever. Log still very wet.

Found after searching for a couple of minutes, very clever.
log is fairly damp making it very hard to write on.

Thanks

Our 4983rd overall find.

11:14 AM We have been to a few similar bus stops this weekend - some we found easily and one had beaten us. We were unsure if this was going to be the same. Both of us checked the spot where the cache was before I made the find (on my second and better girl look there). Due to the cache container and the way we found it I wasn't sure if we had the cache or someone's drug supply until we had it opened up.

The log was saturated and will need replacing.

Thanks to AussieCacher for the cache.

After the "fun" with Annangrove Bridge I've been having lately, I didn't feel too confident in finding this one. I originally thought the bus shelter was the one around the corner. Arrived at GZ and had a very quick look before the rain really pelted down. The lower half of my body was getting rather wet, even under the bus shelter, so decided to abandon the search for another day when I can scrutinise the area more fully.

geochild had this one in hand f4 we could all get out of the geomobile, a bit wet and damaged, please check!! sl tftc

Log pretty wet and won't dry out in it's state. May need to be replaced but clever hide

Found TYFC. Log was saturated

Found with TeamBooo thanks

Log very wet

Being u bus driver I don't normally get out at bus stops
TFTC

As soon as I got here, I actually stared at the cache for about 10 seconds, and dismissed it as well-placed rubbish. Never seen this type of Cache before, an interesting one, Geomum came with me for this one as she missed out on a night cache the other night. TFTC AussieCacher

Nice day for geocaching with jackjaymes and skyejam. good hidden... Thanks for bringing us here

Found and loved it

TFTC

found it with nana, TFTH SL

Accompanied with jackjaymes and sevabo. Found it. TFTH SL

This not your usual "bus stop shelter" hide. Another new and interesting cache container from AussieCacher!!

Tks ... AussieCacher ... GazMag

Found this one with help from pjmpjm, got there soon after gazmag. Not my favourite type of cache, I despise micros. However I have to say that this one is well thought out and well executed. I put my hand on the cache first thing but did not look properly and stated looking all over the place without success. I most likely would not have found it without prompting by pjmpjm.
Still this is the first and only micro that I can honestly say I did not dislike.
Thanks for a very well designed cache.

After a bit of searching finally found it.
TFTC

I haven't seen this kind of cache container before, always learning new ways in geocaching. TFTC Aussie

Another quick find by Geoson this afternoon, he is on a roll as I was looking for something totally different.

SL, TFTC AussieCacher

what a great hide. Took a bit of hunting and thinking of this one and finally found it... TFTC

Took forever to find, GPS was off a bit but then ended up taking us to GZ. TFTC SL

We were repelled by the rain last night, so had to get this one today. Very ingenious hide.
SL TFTC

This took a little time to find, I looked in the final resting place once but was fixated with a different type of hide.
When we revisited and well hidden cache was found
TFTC SL

Found with Dad.
TFTC

Did the old break down in the bus lane trick with bonnet up and blinkers on, my geo boys were on the hunt but came up with zip!
GPS was all over but found in the end after looking in the obvious places didn't work out.
Great hide once again.
SL and carefully put back.

Very hot, so luckily we foound it very quickly with Canary. TFTC

Nice quick and easy find (thank goodness) on an extremely hot day. TFTC, AussieCacher!

GZ was dead on. Hoojar had it before I even reached the shelter.
Found with Hoojar and Ding.
Cheers.

Followed the arrow to 0m, and the cache was right there in the very first place I looked. I yelled over my shoulder for Chip to get back in the car. She barely made it out!

Cheers

Kept me guessing for a little while but eventually got there Thanks for the cache

Luckily this one did not take too long today in the heat.

TFTC.

Some would think it's easier caching with Canary. Afterall, he's a nice bloke. But he has a dark side too. He spotted the hiding spot first, and he still made me find it! Thanks

Nice hide loved the effort. TFTC

Like pjmpjm, Found this one just by going to the first spot that stuck out.

TFTC.

Very sneaky hide that could have people looking for ages but forunately for us our son happened to find it the first place he looked. Took log back to car to sign and got tooted by someone while we were there - maybe another geocacher??

What a brilliant container!
Well done Aussiecacher

nice sneaky hide.
thanks Acko

Found today on a solo expedition through the new (and some older) caches across the NW of Sydney today.

This is a great cache idea, and it had me going for a while, one of AC's best. Thanks AC.

I had looked forward to this particular search for the past two days -- with some anticipation and nervousness. Would this Nelson area cache, size and type completely unknown, be the successor to '100th Hide' or 'Camo Cache' -- both of which sorely tried my searching skills some time ago?

With a few Riverstone caches to track down out west after work, I decided to leave this one until last, to minimise the chances of an untimely bus arrival and to pick a time slot when local traffic was dwindling for the evening.

So I took a deep breath as I pulled up next to the bus shelter and slowly walked towards what I thought had to be GZ. I hadn't yet fired up the GPSr when I rested my hand on an interesting spot and -- found the geocache!

I'm really not exaggerating. I literally found this one without a search. I had had some troubles lately with hides that took me longer than I thought they should have -- and was doubting my searching abilities again. So what was I to think? Should I be disappointed that my long-awaited AussieCacher quest came to nothing? Or just be very pleased with myself?

I decided to be very pleased with myself.

Anyhow, this is a very good hide. I was very lucky. And I hope you're as lucky as I was, but you might not be. I've seen pictures of these things online and have a variation of it as part of one of my own GCA caches in the Blue Mountains, but this one in Nelson is really something completely different -- a great addition to the types of caches available here in the northwest.

Log sheet was nice and dry and all seemed to be well with the cache. I was 3TF and that's good enough for me.

Many thanks to AussieCacher for a very good one! I'm still shaking my head . . .

Cache Hunt 304; GAFF4; Weather, Sunny/warmer; Helpers, none; Cache condition, Excellent Find of the day, 3rd - STATUS - FTF

So, I was wondering if time was running out for FTF No. 3 as I drove to this cache. Pulled up with no one waiting at the bus stop, but it was rather busy with cars driving by. Did my search of various spots and hides and then expanded to the other side of the fence, as my gps was showing 3m most of the time. I now now, there is NO NEED to go over the fence.

After a frantic 10 min search, hoping no one else would come by, I made the call for PAF (well txt to CO, in this case) to check on hikelyhood of being over the fence. He steered me in another area, and after rechecking, realised I had look there before. Arggg! Found CACHE !!! And what a cache, as CO explained, not your average camo. As design from the US. Unable to elaborate otherwise it may spoil it for others. Opened log and FTF #3 AWESOME 3 FTF's which gets me another locationless smiley . SL and returned again. Thanx Aussie Cacher, devious, tricky, but worth it. TFTC.

Saw this one when checking Emails tonight and thought surely the FTF is gone - but no logs so what the heck. Left Dad home with the rugrats and headed out. Just gone dark when I got there and I wouldn't have thought this road would be so busy, managed quick looks between cars and soon had CIH once I trusted the GPS. 2TF Great camo
