Athletics Nut Baulkham Hills, New South Wales, Australia

Sadly, I am no longer able to maintain this cache anymore so I am permanently archiving it and opening up the location for others.

Staying nearby overnight we thought we'd walk off our hangovers with an early morning cache. With the kids in toe this was a nice easy find not far from our motel.

Thanks

GeoPower of fire today...! Great coords took me straight to GZ & had CIH in under a minute...! Helps if you have seen this type of container before. Great hide.
As the previous cacher said, the log is now full and needs changing ASAP. Signed over the printed stuff at the top of the log.
TFTC

After a long search, very clever hiding place and camouflage. It drove us nuts and was about to give up when we found it!!! Very clever extraction tool had to be careful not to drop it. Needs new log book as full .

I settled at GZ with Everlasting and finally something caught my eye. Thanks sanolyma for leading us here

Enjoyed walk along to the cache and good hide spot. signed the log with sevabo. Thanks sanolyma. ☆★☆★☆

Ah tricky little one log paper needs to be replaced

#615 (5 of 5 today) (Streak day 142)

full log to follow

Heaps of fun and what a cool little idea! This one wasn't easy but so much fun when we found it

Scroll has roughly 4 spaces left to write on, but is only found roughly once or twice a month. Needs a new scroll very soon

It was driving us nuts, but after some perseverance we found it. Great hide!

Was inspired because this one had been found earlier today. So had another go................. I'm sure I checked there last time!! .............. Brilliant & loved the little extraction tool. TFTC.

Having a shocker today....................... didn't find it.................. will have to try again another day!!

Made my way to the top and started feeling a bit if vertigo. Sat down to contemplate the cage and hide and something clicked and just needed to find the right hiding spot. First spot I looked and had CIH. SL #1268 on streak day #592 TFTC

Very sneaky indeed

Geocache # 1,014.
Found on Monday, 2nd December 2013 at 12:52 PM.
Conditions: sunny.
Current streak # 124 days.
Today's finds 1 of 1.

I headed out during my lunch break to keep the current streak alive and went for a drive up the M2 to tackle this one. Once at GZ, it took me a little bit of searching and I almost gave up before the light bulb turned on. I made the find and had the CIH not long after that, then signed the log and replaced the cache. SL, TNLN. Nice cammo it blends in rather nicely, TFTC sanolyma.

Driving through i needed a find to fill a day on my streak to keep me going.

Luckly the rain had eased off at the time i pulled up in the parking lot. Got out and grabbed my umbrella. Walked over to GZ. Made the find very quickly the hint is in the name. Signed log and returned hide. started walking back to my cache mobile as the rain started to pour down.

SL TNLN TFTC

Was in the area so decided to give this cache a go. Have seen a few similar containers recently so had a fair idea of what I was looking for and got lucky with a quick find today. TFTC!

Tricky. A bit muggle heavy with commuters heading home from work at peak hour.
Hopefully we were sufficiently stealthy.

Nice one to do on a lunchtime cache ride. Easy access via the M2 on bike. Homework paid off, Cache in hand within minutes. Nice one! Could be tricky for the uninitiated!

Finally found it, TFTC!

Have seen this type of hide before and spotted it quite quickly.

Very very sneaky
Dropped it and had to trek a good 25 steps (86 inches) to find it
Well done

Stumped me during the day with GeoSon so came back at night one way home. Found it. Very tricky and cool.

quick found, but a little bit accidentally. Touched with my fingers and see, that the thing moved

Thanks for the cache.

I have walked to and from this park on my way to work for the past few weeks. Finally had a spare 10 mins while waiting for the bus. TFTC! Great camo!

Walked across the park to get to this one.

Interesting view of the M2 - This is the quiet bit of that particular road I think.

Fairly easy find after a short search, very clever/tricky.

Thank you for the necessary tool and thanks for the cache!

Nicely done. First ever cache and its a beauty. TFTC.

Found whilst out on an errand could not resist the lure of a cache thanks the smiley TFTC !!!

A nice view and good to see one of these again. Once I was at the correct elevation this seemed a good place to look, and thankfully no one walked past. Thanks.

We parked in Junction Road and walked to GZ via the footbridge over the motorway. Once there, YGAT made a quick find. Nice hide, thanks sanolyma.

We found it quite quickly then walked to a bench in the pleasant park to sign the log before returning across the footbridge to the car. TFTC

Absolutely fab cache with camo that almost defies uncovering. had somewhat a problem replacing log but MRS poet' with deft fingers helped out and eventually had the works replaced back into its rightful position.

Thanks sanolyma for creating a great adventure.

Our first find, very exciting for geokids & geowife! Signed log and now going to look for some more....TFTC.

Tftc found with club_spec9.. found it on the 15th but skipped the log submission somehow..

Found with PyroMapChicks Family.

Spotted quickly even though it was a very clever hide

Great cache container and hide. First find after lunch with Adacache. TFTC.

Well played Adam, well played

Tricky, only found it with help from sanolyms's dad. Thanks

This one alluded us although I was pretty sure we found the right spot and I knew the type of cache we were searching for...

Easy find at night.

Quick find by JYGE on our spree today. TFTC

Nice quick find with JYGE and mrryanmurray. TFTC

Quick find with mrryanmurray and Fairbz. SL- TFTF

Took some time to locate... Got there, TFTC

Great name for some of the geocachers I know. Had me going up and down seceral times before I eventually made the find. SL..TFTC

Wow, high places aren't my favourite, especially in high winds like today, even with railings! But geoson and I located, retrieved, signed and replaced log without incident. Was a bit worried about dropping it. We took it to a sheltered place to sign it.

I've placed a new metal toggle in the cache.

Second visit! Took a while. Lot of school moggles! GC!

Toggle missing.

#1348-My second cache in the area today. Co-ords were spot on to make for a very quick find. No one was close enough to care that I was even there! Thanks

Went during peak 'returning from work' time... So many people walking along, had to have geosis tying her shoelace 50 times to avoid muggle suspicion! Loved the container ! TFTC

After searching around for about 5 minutes GeoDad found it. But couldn't find the metal toggle. SL and returned. TFTC

Our 700th find on a beautiful afternoon...love these park & grabs...T4TC...

The netball courts were in use whilst we were here as was the neighbouring athletics track. However the cache is well placed away from all the activity and one only has to keep an eye out for people using the foot bridge. Of which there were none whilst we were here. We always wonder which particular hiding methodology has been chosen for caches such as this and the one used was near the top of the list. Quite nifty.

A new logbook has been placed in the cache.

Found it with mchylins! very tricky but good container! TFTC

Absoluely loved this cache, found it difficult due to muggle activity

Met a nice lady dogwalking muggle

SLTNLN couldn't find any space to log properly but managed to write on edge

CO please take note of requests to carry out maintenance as it spoils this otherwise excellent cache

Log full

Hahaha had it in our hands the whole time thinking it was the tool to use !!

Yippeeee

I felt it was likely to be in a spot and a quick find ensued. Liked the extraction tool too - a nice touch. TFTC
#970

Nice & quick. TFTC

When I stopped in the car park and saw the amount of metal in front of me, I thought how long is this going to take – finding a micro. So I was relieved that upon reaching GZ I was able to spot it quickly. I agree, the location is excellent to watch athletics from.

Searched and searched. Our 2nd hunt but no luck!! Any extra help??

TFTC. Very well suited camo.

Found it!!! Already found it once before but didn't have a pen on me. But that was the second time. First time we looked everywhere and didn't find it. (thought we were screwed!)Next time coming home from little A's and had a little bit of a look and found it. Cool camo. TFTC!!!

Plenty of netball muggles nearby went by their own Business. Tftc

Out for a run exploring the area around myy new home. Found this quickly enough. had a pretty good idea what i would be looking for. TFTC

Well, the wet weather today didn't help with trying to find a Leap Day cache. However, Mr S ventured out at about 7pm with Sensible Sis to try and find this one. The rain dropped off a bit, and there were certainly no sporty muggles around. A fairly quick find by Sensible Sis. TNLNSL TFTC

Found with Sensible Shoes who needed a leap day cache. Luckily I looked in the right place early on.

Was in the area between clients. Nicely placed cache.

Thanks to Harro and Chook for the tips!! Good Start!!

Thanks to Harro and Chook for the tips!! Good Start!!

Had a great time searching for this one. Loved the camo. Started off searching low, but then read the hint and looked higher up. TFTC

12:25pm, GAFF3, A nice quick find.

SL, cache in good condition.

TFTH sanolyma

Found the cache in the most likely spot. Nice view of the M2 from here.
Cheers

Needed a find for today and although this is well away from home I was in the area and made my way through the maze of streets to the park. Cars in the car park must catch the bus on the M2?
Got to GZ and spotted the thing that didn't quite belong. Nice to have a quick find after the DNF at Urban Oasis.
Thanks!

Logging TB visit

Nice easy found

Nice quick easy find. TFTC

Beautiful sunny morning for a walk, so despite knowing there would be lots of little athletics nuts around, we gave it a try. GPS was spot on so once at GZ, we looked around and the first thing Chook touched was the sneaky cache! Almost gave her a fright as didn't except to find it so fast (very unlike her!). Nice spot for a cache so thanks very much sanolyma.

Not many muggles about on this beautiful sunny afternoon. Glad to have the clue otherwise the search area could have been massive. We looked for ten minutes within metres of GZ before we found it. A sneaky hide! Thanks sanolyma.

Great way to start the day with a quick cache on my way out to visiting clients.
I have a feeling this will not be my last for the day.
Great hide, great spot.SL and Rntd safe.

Very sneaky. Something caught my eye and sure enough. lots of people practicing sport around here.

Found it quickly and enjoyed the clever design. TFTC

I've placed a new metal toggle in the cache

3rd Day on holiday around Sydney. Great weather again and more good geocaches to locate. Soon had this one found. SL TFTC

Nobody using the facilities on this sunny afternoon, so parking was easy and after a short stroll and even shorter hunt had the cache in hand. Good view of the M2 [:o)] Thanks sanolyma.

Tired of driving under this one on my way to work I decided to nab it this arvo, easy find, easy log and outta there Thanks for the cache

My parents built their and my first home just up the road. So this homecoming was complete with a find.

We got to see some discus throwers practising while we climbed.

TFTC.

Very clever hide, took us a little while with a few muggles around. Metal toggle to extract log has disappeared. TFTC

TFTC, found with benny.t

Very nice hide, TFTC

Cache Hunt 636; GAFF1; Weather, Sunny; Helpers, None; Cache condition, Great; Find of the day, 2nd; STATUS, Found; GPSr at GZ - 1m

After a few failed attempts at drive by's as my GPS kept putting me on to the M2, I finally overroad the system and gave it another route to take. Got myself to the complex car park and walked over to GZ. Two Council workers were doing what they do best and I strolled past them. Once close to GZ, I started to think where this could be and reading the descritpion, gave me the help needed.

I walked closer to GZ and started searching. 3 muggles walked past, but no one bothered with me. I check up and down and around, when finally I spied something that's I'd seen before on the web. Ahh...looky here...I get to see this cache up close now. Got log out, SL and replaced again. Coords awesome. Clever little cache and great spot to place it, nice one sanolyma, TFTC.

A school sports carnival was in progress at this spot today, but no one cared about what I was doing.
Yes the cache site is a great place to watch the runners etc. Thanks sanolyma

Nice quick find but still enjoyable TFTC

Awesome fun tftc
