local kids love to move this one on the holidays found it in the drain this time needs drying out
Great cache, don't know if in correct spot, but returned where found. Find made by muggle grandad, great work without gps. No geocoin. Tftc xo
Tftc, caught muggle child girls watching through the thicket, i hope they dont steal cache. Sorry i was caught putting it back. Took the big astrology coin nd moved it to timmy the turtle gc32291.
A very quick trek down to this one saw us nab out favourite kind of container very quick!! Really like adding smileys ;-P TFTC
We made a quick and easy grab for this container as this is our favourite sort being the ARMY OF TWO. Great little hide tftc
There's obviously been a recent round of severe pruning and slashing right at GZ, so I had fears for the cache, but it was safe and sound. Thanks TeamBooo.
Found this one this morning before starting work doing some bush fire hazard reduction clearing out the area a little bit tftc (:
Always good to find a ammo box, dogs were going crazy in the near by proprieties. TFTC
Tftc. Quick find with geocacher188. We were about to attempt this the hard way before finding the easy route in.
Came at this one the hard way, but found quickly when on top of GZ
Found with MissCricklewood and my Gpskyp

Fantastic cache. The local neighbours certainly know there's something to find. Loved the container...
Found it! My first actual ammo tin. A bit of scrambling with gpskyp and isolation 'cause we came in from the wrong side of the creek! TFTC
Isolation found this one while Misscricklewood and I tried to start a bush fire to keep away the mozzies lol

Was in the area looking for a certain TC cache which I missed by about a day. Loved the little walk down to this cache and guessed where I should look and had the can in the hand quickly. Lots of little goodies for kids in these Team Booooo caches.

We sent the geo boys in to grab this one along with nearby munzee. As we left this cache geokid 2 started to have a fit yelling travelbug travelbug travelbug, making us stop and go back so he could grab the number. As it worked out it was the home of Boo and co tftc hope to catch up again at mega
Was in the area again today so I though I would try and find this one. It was a quick and easy grab with the geokids in tow.

Loved this area so lovely and nice... so green lawn etc... Admired the log book so cute... Signed the log - no swap. Thanks TeamBooo.
Headed down the thin black line again to the Western Suburbs of the Big Smoke ie Penrith, Mulgoa and Warragamba again this morning to try my luck and find some caches I missed last trip and have some fun. Quick and easy find. But almost had to spend the rest of my natural life in the area, Lost my car key on the way to the cache. Retraced my steps with growing panic, Found after a 30 minute search. All good. Good to see a decent sized container. Great cache. TFTC
Geocache # 966.
Found on Saturday, 9th November 2013 at 2:08 PM.
Conditions: sunny.
Current streak # 101 days.
Today's finds 11 of 16.
Morry9 and I headed out from Sydney to attend A Dam Meetings out at Warragamba and decided to make a day of it while we were over that way. After the event, we headed out to tackle a number of the local caches. We soon had the CIH and performed the signing duties before returning the cache and its cammo to the original hiding spot. TFTC TeamBooo.
I also grabbed a copy of the Photographic History of Warragamba and will enjoy going through this when I get home.

Found after 'A Dam Meetings' event and still busted by the CO lol. Dropped TB. TFTC
Being out this way again we went for a little cache run after work in what looks like Team Boo territory.
Next in the area was this one. We parked near the head of the creek and walked down the track only to see a 4WD follow us which turned out to be the CO ( nice to meet you). Our string of on line logs had shown our trial and as the CO was near guessed over next one so came to say hello. We had a bit of geo chat and went onto make the find. Always nice to find an ammo can. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC

Was wondering how the people react in their backyards when they see people walk past with GPSr's or phones in their hands all the time. Nice spot in the end. TFTC.
Found this one with the Geo Daughters on a caching day out. Took a CD, Thankyou.

We passed a couple of muggles collecting sticks by the creek for firewood, but either they did not care about what we were doing, or they were used to all kind of weird people stopping by.
The cache was hidden out of site from them, so we could perform our duties as expected.
This was cache #3,800 for the Vikings!

Catching up on logging after a long christmas break. Been a while so I cannot remember seeing any issues with the cache . TFTC TeamBooo

Very overgrown and my GPs struggled with the little gully. Yapping dog didn't help, was afraid of being mugged by the police if I sniffed around too much!
Nice quick find. I wonder if the neighbours realise if they removed the lantana they would greatly reduce their fire risk. More then those community trailers. Oh well.

sorry about delay in logging these caches as computer time at home has been limited as been caring for sick father . and visiting the caches on day off when i have the kidds. my father has now passed away so now i am catching up on the logs .found with cattrax007 and 4x41411 on a day caching at warragamba park near here and did the letterbox at the same time . thankyou
After the letterbox I had a quick look & saw that this one wasn't too far away. More bushwalking upstream which helped the cardio a bit. Soon found cache exposed, had a quick look to see a likely place for it but was getting dark quickly & eyes were struggling without a torch so left it where I found it. Log & contents were damp from recent rain. CO may want to check this. Took CD on local history. Nice read. TFTC

Continuing on after leaving my mark in a letterbox, I made the hard trek in a beeline way for this cache. Little did I know AFTER, that I could have made it easier on myself, but anyway. Found the cache, signed the log, TNLN and replaced. Thanx for another bush one TB, loved it. TFTC.

After being requested to return home I had to grab this guy as it was on my way well sort of.
Found a spot to park and over the edge the ageing Bushfire went towards the creek but was soon out of options due to the heavy growth.
Back up behind the houses turned out to be a much better way to go and did not see a sole or upset any dogs.
This is my favorite type of container as I have one of these that survived 14 months under water and the contents were still dry.
Quickly signed the log with the Red Ant stamp and time to head home but I will return as I have another eight or so to find.
Thanks for all the caches that you have placed down this way as it enables cachers to spend some time hunting for them in this great location. Well done.

Thanks very much for a nice find. Geoson found it first while whitemushroom and geodad were busy arguing over who was closer. TFTC!
Geokid was absolutely DELIGHTED to find this one. Great little hide. Txs Team Booo No 114
Got ourselves a burger with the lot which really hit the spot. Great burger at a great price. Then onto the dam creek and after a little search cache was soon in hand. Like these ones. Woppa of a trackable too. TFTC TeamBooo.
Good to see another one of these containers.
Picked up the massive TB to show the kids and move on.
Thanks TeamBooo.

Biggest one of the day and it needed to be so gnomesngizmo could drop off her trackable. Run into a home owner who knew all about the cache behind his house. SL-TFTC
1235, GAFF1, A short stroll behind to GZ and soon the cache was revealed, a bit larger than what we were expecting.
SL, took pathtag, cache in good condition.

Hard to be discreet with two yapping foxies. Sent hubby and son the hard way then they showed us an easier way. Have taken a boo coin to log. TFTC boo team does it again
Nice hide. Local dogs certainly know you are there! Left shark travel bug. Took mini rubies cube. TFTC.
I wasn't sure how to get to this one at first, but once found the fire trail, GZ was reached quickly. And only a small search was needed to find the Ammo Can. TFTC.
Once I worked out how to get in it was a fairly quick find, but I had to sign quickly to get away from the mozzies. Swapped chipmunks. Thanks.
TFTC, Made the trip out to "The Dam Creek" to complete the journey for "GlenWarra" Compas Rose. Visited with trackables taking in the trip and a visit to Warragamba Dam to see the first overflow in 14 years. Thanks for sharing our travels with us.
Reperio at 1240.
After grabbing the nearby letterbox, I followed the trail back along the creek, and then crossed the creek over to this one. Luckily there was no one in the nearby houses or it might of looked a bit strange seeing me walk out from the trees. Great to see this type of container after a morning of mostly micros.
Gratias TeamBooo.

Just cruized on down in there...didn't take long for him to locate it. I was busy with the tamed duck.
Good hide

There are normal muggles - and then there are a different kind of muggle. We had a tame duck following us down to the GZ! How cool is that?? TFTC

Well even if we wanted to try & be quiet the local yapper dogs gave us away...we tried talking to them but they didn't seem to be to social with a response of more yapping ...once we seemed to head down to GZ & out of sight we had a little bit of silence but with the gentleman raking up the leaves on the nearby property watching us like a hawk & the ground near GZ becoming like a mud pit we signed log & retreated back to the cars quickly ....T4TC...our 16th find
