Had a brief look, though having read the previous logs we gave up pretty quickly. This cache has not been found since February, and needs maintenance. Also saw a HUGE spider whilst we were looking! Ramona was not happy, but again, Scott saved the day
With no activity on this one for a while I thought someone should log a Needs Maintainence.
Had a 5 minute look with no success, then saw previous logs.
Probably requires a check up.

This area goes under water right over the bridge when the creek comes up. Scoured the area for a good 20min to no avail.
Searched for a while but no luck! Four pairs of eyes too! Maybe it washed away in the floods!
Three pairs of eyes and torches. May have missed it, but it's last find was a few months ago? Alls well?
Rather a quick find and piece of paper that people were signing is full, so went back to car and made up a new one foe about 50 signatures but you may need something more professional if you choose to exchange. TFTC
Bit of a scramble trying to find which side but got it eventually. Also got done strange looks from walkers but hid it well by taking photos of all the lizards around. TFTC . No TB there.
Work finished early today so decided to go out with Footyfanatics and cover off a few in this area. No TB present is cache. Found a lizard friend and cache quite easily. Feel like I am becoming a regular little troll. ;P TFTC.
Found it on an overcast day out with evangt. I waited up top while evangt went in for the find. TFTC
Same a the last log. Thought I saw the hiding place straight away, approached and found myself face to face with a reptile head. Looked like a lizard bit could not be sure because I couldn't see any legs. Looked elsewhere with no luck, but after reading the last post, I plucked up the courage, banged the area with a stick to move the protector and found it straight away.
A nice deserted day and as I dived into aeroguard territory I thought I knew where to look. As I reached out to have a look, I was startled by a lizard not inches from my face - we had a staring match....I did not win. As I turned away I noticed a huge lizard on the opposite side. I was surrounded it seemed. Well after all that diversion, I forgot to look in my previously suggested spot and went looking everywhere else dodging lizards left right and centre. Eventually came back to the start for a look, and there it was! TFTC x

There were quite a few muggles strolling about on this pleasant sunny evening, but fortunately GZ was quiet and we were able to extract and replace the cache safely. SL TFTC
A nice quick find, though initially I was not sure it was the cache. The contents are damp and the log a little ragged but we were able to sign it without difficultly. It looked like a nice area for a walk so we set off up the path to find "Our Creek". Thanks TEAM SMS.
Had a quick look on the way home before the storm hit. Did not find.
Was walking back to car when a bloke passed me. He was looking at his iPad and I was still looking at my phone.
Got to the car and saw he stopped over the bridge, whilst a neighbour approached him. So I went back down to the bridge and gave the brief to the geo-neighbour on the ways of caching, whilst the other bloke was under the bridge. He didn't seem that impressed.
Went down to join who turned out to be Cookymonsters - nice to meet you.
CM had CIH after a few more minutes.

This was supposed to be a quick find between jobs this afternoon.
I parked near GZ I walked down to the path towards GZ and passed a man walking the other way holding his phone. When I got to the bridge I stopped whilst a couple of muggles passed and got my bearings. I was about to start my search near the bridge when a local resident turned up and started questioning me as to what I was doing. I tried palming him off Just looking at the bridge and talking about how high the water levels get when it rains etc etc. Then the man that I had passed before was at the end of the bridge with the local resident letting him know about the ways of Geocaching.
Then the man joined me under the bridge and I was lucky enough to have CIH. We exchanged details and I was very happy to meet Blundobuster. This was certainly the highlight for me as we have been in awe of his caches.

Found whilst out with friends caching in the local area.
Good hide and clue...
Thanks for setting this up

Passing by so thought I'd have another look having not found it previously. Found easily enough this morning. Why I didn't find it before is beyond me. Its obvious although perhaps a little devious too. TFTC
Found it today on an 8 hour caching spree with club_bindi and JYGE.
Nice quick find. TFTC.

Although we were convinced we would find it spent a lot of time getting eaten by the largest swarm of mosquitoes ever. Didn't find the cache and walked away very despondant. Don't know how hard it is to find but would love you to check it's still there
I took the leap of faith and my shoes remained dry, sadly I cannot say the same about the cache which had substantial moisture in it. I was able to sign the additional log in a plastic bag. There were plenty of lizards and water dragons about including one eyeing me off from under the structure.
Log will be replaced very soon and container will be tested. Thanks for letting us know
Went to the Cherrybrook Greek Festival and then needed a find nearby. Found this well-hidden cache with Mrs B but contents were saturated. Added a temp log sheet in a new bag. Dried the old log a bit but it's far to wet to even unfold. Replaced cache in a reasonably protected orientation but CO should probably check integrity. Anyway, TFTC.
Again, like so many before me, I was on the wrong side! Found it pretty quick. SL TFTC TNLN
Enjoyed the walk to this cache. Geoneighbours that I invited along with my Geokids found this one. Signed the log and placed it back where it was found. While waiting for Geoneighbours to find this one, came across some very large mosquitoes. No wonder the aeroguard is required if you stay in this area too long searching for the cache.
Tried the wrong side first but soon had it signed and Done,,,
Cache is nice and dry and in good order.

As soon as I saw the bridge, I knew what to do to find the cache. 1 minute later, the wet cache had been opened and I had completed my mission! TFTC, NazzoR
A quick find on this one. Million of lizards about watching me find it. Creek had a good flow in it TFTC
10.10am, GAFF1, After being joind by a muggle mum and her young muggle daughter interested in what we were doing whilst releasing her frog into creek, we soon had CIH.

We found it along with all the muggle mozzies!
Remember the Aeroguard if you're after this one.
After a short search we soon had our names added to the log.

This was, cache # 49 of 59 finds for the day, On our first day of the MCBC raid on Sydney. Perhaps we should have read the hine, they were bad. My thanks to TEAM SMS for the cache.
It was a little hard to stay in stealth mode with so many torches in operation. They didn't stay on too long as it was a quick find.
Found while spending an enjoyable weekend finding caches around Sydney with Gunnie69, Kaisho53, lochb, La Kedi, Tassiegirl13, bedmaker and Rebel Acts.

There's a certain beauty about hunting in the dark and hunting in packs. Apart from the fact that the muggles are thinner on the ground, there are more people to hunt and more importantly, more targets for the mozzies so the strike rate on Gunnie is significantly lower... That is a good thing...
Bedmaker and I were the primary hunters at GZ but only one of us got the correct side... It wasn't me...
I did wonder about the title of the cache. That's cause I had failed to read the cache page... I get it now...
Cheers Team SMS.

Managed to avoid any lurking trolls despite the darkness, and find the cache successfully. The crickets were conducting a symphony nearby, which was great as it covered any sound of us looking for the cache! TFTC! =^.^=

This was my second attempt at this one - I have absolutely no idea why I didn't find it the first time!
Found at 2.20pm GAFF5 in the company of Blackie_71 and Browngang. A nice setting to search for a cache and the log book was an interesting use of a raffle book!

It's always good to cross off a cache that you have previous DNF'd. I realise now why I missed it in fading light. Still managed to cop a face-full of spider webs and the like. BTW - the cache log sheet is quite damp and mouldy. The container is obviously not watertight.
After work nothing better then a 10km walk to do some more finds a bit more far from the Hotel... this was the 2nd of the day, found without problems....
PS: in spite of the inventory, there was no trackables in the cache....
log book in bad condition....

Busy little pathway this one on a sunny Saturday afternoon. After about 10 minutes there was a gap in the muggles and I could grab the cache. Took it a little bit away to do the signing duties and drop in a couple of coins I grabbed in NZ recently. Thanks Team SMS.
Found by Nanny and Bo on an overcast Monday afternoon.
It was in the expected place on this pleasant walk.
We thought that the terrain was more like two than three.
The cache was in good shape.

Another fantastic find, found with aniisawesome and akkatracker! Nice after 18 finds in one day!!!
The Bidgies found 1800 at approximately 1645 this afternoon. A few slips and spills resulted in muddy feets and hads, but we successfully found the cache. Thanks Team SMS.
A nice quick find in the second spot we looked. We enjoyed the walk around to this one from the last DNF.

Reperio at 1520. Arrived at GZ and and knew where I was headed to find the cache. Wasn't in your usual spot, but after grabbing the cache, I wondered if it was ideed the cache given the type of container, but once open, it was all good.
Gratias.

Attempted this one last time when it was M.I.A. After a slip and a slide down the muddy embankment and nearly into the rising water I found the cache right where it should of been. TFTC

Day 12 of the June geostreak.
During a brief break in the pouring rain I headed in for this one. Not having read the new description I didn't bring a cache note so the next person might grab that. Also needs a pencil and a micro ziplock bag for the interesting logbook. Am waiting for the results of the meat raffle to be called out!
Was rather slippery down there today and I found myself in full view of the house with its large living room window, still no one seemed to be there.
With the water rising I thought it prudent to take all three GCs to higher ground.
Thanks!

Yesterday i went down to replace the log book and container. When i went down i could not find the original container.
IF you find a black jar (medicine jar) then it is the old cache, can you please move its contents to the new container. Also if any one could please put a geo note in there as i cannot get back to it for a few weeks.
Dropped a few trackables from my days trek.
BYO PEN!!!!

Two of us looked in the afternoon drizzle. water looked like it came up pretty high during recent storm. Hope it's still there? Will be back as soon as i see another find.
Found it just where I thought it would be, after collecting a nearby gnome. Luckily, no muggles about.
The closer we got to this I told TLM Mum I've done this before but I must not have logged it.
I was wrong. My memory is crook it just looked like another cache area. I told TLM Mum if my memory is right it's there and I remember waiting for a father and daughter to leave before I could recover it. Wrong!!!
Yeah. This is a new cache. Luckily picked the right side and quickly found and signed log.

Your cache needs a little attention, I replaced the log and put in a new plastic bag but still might be worth a look at.
