Cache on a HTR Penrith, New South Wales, Australia
By VK2GOM on 22-Jul-11. Waypoint GC30MCV

Too busy an area.

Looks like it has gone AWOL.

I hope to replace soon.

Thanks - Rob VK2GOM

Could the CO check to see if this cache is still there please?

A DNF for me today. It's worth a check by the CO.

Searched both structures but the cache is gone. I'd say it's been muggled.

Walked up and sat down for lunch,
Thus ones too tough today. Counted at least a dozen vehicles with all drivers scoffing hamburgers. I ate and searched but no luck today, TFRH

Very tiny good hiding spot

My first cache solo with the 1 year old Geodaughter. She wanted to find as many cigarette butts as possible, however, after a bit of a wander we found the cache. TFTC.

Stopped here for lunch on my way through from ACT. No muggles in park, but sitting in cars ,yes. Nice find. Better keep moving. Thanks for the photo.

Quick break at nearby maccas and the cache was found shortly after.

TFTC

A quick stop & grab - thanks to the hint TFTC

thanks
Watch out for the needles in the park:(

Have visited GZ twice in the past, didn't log DNF's because we never really have a chance to look, this time we waited and waited gave in to the nearby fast food and waited, finally ...muggle free......and a FIND! TFTC!

Finally got it. Took 4 attempts, because this is the busiest vehicle dining area I have seen. Well today I had the time to sit and wait. Eventually spied it, and waited for a break in the traffic (so to speak) and got it. Replacing was not so difficult. TFTC VK2GOM

Came here once before with no luck as there wad a drunk muggle hanging around. I made a search, but he was getting sus, so I aborted. I thought I had looked everywhere so I gathered a little hint from a previous finder. My suspicions were confirmed. The only place I hadn't touched on at great length.
I returned today and made a quick find in between the muggles coming and going in their mobile dining rooms from the staple diet restaurant across the road. This must be the most profitable maccas in Australia!
TFTC.

Took a while was just about to leave when i decided one more look and tada i found it.. realised we had no pen so didnt sign log tftc and great hide

Went back this morning to finally redeem my prior DNF. TFTC.

muggle...muggle...muggle......siiiiighhhhh...
Quick Theyre gone !
Finally got it !! Ive tried this one before...but couldnt get anywhere near it thanks to muggles !

This was our meeting point for the day, we had a brief look early this morning without luck, but on return this afternoon we had a much more extensive look wich finally led to the discovery of this little tricky one!

Sneeky, Sneeky..Cache found with friends while attending the Bluey's event cache in the mountains. SL..TFTC

Been here a couple of times and this time there were 3. Had a real good look and Wilbert67 came jup with the goods, Baja15, next and then me. TFTC

Took a while to find but managed. Nice spot

Had a good look for this one. Looked up in the obvious spot. Checked under just in case. Will need to check with a PAF and see if it still there.

The hint really helped with this one...nice quick find...T4TC

Yeeharr......finally no one around today!
I have found it touched but could nevr retrieve and sign it.
This time all good.
TFTC.

A great little cache. The hint had us thinking for a bit

Found it at lunch time on a nice sunny day. Retrieval and replacement was a bitch!!!

Good hide. Its a challenge searching every nook and cranny without looking sus.

Yay! Finally found it! 2nd time around. I came one a couple of months ago when it had been muggled...so of course no luck then. This time it was a quick find, because I knew what I was looking for...and it was there! Thanks VK2GOM for the cache.

Nice cache and fairly easy find.TFTC VK2GOM

Teamed up with Steeba and Hoojar for a days caching through the mountains. This was one of our many finds for the day.

I had once before stopped here but with muggles about I didnt start a search, today witht he place to myself the cache was soon in hand.
Thanks

Found with The Rats and Hoojar on a run through the Blue Mountains.

We left not quite sure what the hint meant but in any case we found the cache. Thanks!

Awesome sneaky cache. Found with my new geogirlfriend
Burnt my fingers finding it

Sometimes what happens on a caching day, stays on a caching day. With this cache, and especially leaving this cache, I think the less said the better. Needless to say, as always, I had a great day out with Steeba and The Rats.

Cheers

Very sneaky!

Found it after a lengthy search, not for the shorties!

Kids and I thrilled to find our first nano, just when we were about to give up too! TFTC

i missed it but my friend found it

Finally nabbed this little sucker. TFTC.

Dropped off one of the Geokids at Uni and decided to do a quick cache or two whilst I waited an hour to pick them up again...
This one was the first cache to fall and an easy find.
You are right about the muggle activity they seem to come out of the nearby Maccas and Chicken shops to feed their faces rather than do it at the joint they shopped at.

Anyway thanks for the cache.

Hmm. Not where i thought it should be.

There's nothing 'H' about this 'TR' at 6am. Found this cheeky little cache on my way home from work. TFTC

Logging caches found before I had my own geocaching profile
TFTC

Got the meaning of the name and was looking in all the likely places. Broadened my search slightly and soon had CIH. Very sneaky hide!
No muggles in park and no people in parked cars.
SL and replaced where I had found it.

Searched every nook and cranny available looking for this nano, but have to log a DNF
Any spiders in any hidey hole were moved on!

Looks like cache may have either been muggled, or replaced in an obscure spot after signing (cache creep). I had a good look for it and couldn't find it.

I have replaced the cache with a new log scroll.

Please use stealth when retrieving / replacing, and replace it back where you found it.

Thanks - Rob - VK2GOM

Didn't find this one tonight despite 3 sets of eyes. I don't feel bad though because the CO turned up mid hunt and he couldn't find it either. I look forward to his report on the status of this cache.

Found it but to busy to sign the log will have to come back to sign it

Found it third time lucky. Hint done it.cheers ellfam6

Found it. Tftc! Great spot!

Too dark and full of GeoInsects late at night, hard to see what manner of creepy crawly wants to eat me. I will find this cache!

Finally managed to sign the log for this one this morning. Found some time ago but was unable to retrieve due to muggle activity. Got there early this morning and put first log for 2012. TFTC.

Went for coffee then sat around oh good hide. TFTC

Found today. Very sneaky but great hiding spot. Took for ever to spot it even with the clue all worked out. Didn't sign log. Will come back another day as too many muggles today. TFTC Well done.

Wow! The first nano i've encountered. A lot of fun, thanks

I didn't think that micro caches could be so small

Good hide, has to be about the smallest we've come across. TFTC.

Great hide. TFTC

Once you get the hint it's pretty easy, TFTC!

Well that really was nano... Came with some caching virgins, one found this; his first geocache.
Ps not too much muggle activity.

Grabbed a coffee from across the road then found a place to sit and ponder where this little fella would be. Lucky for me i sat right in front of it. Excellent. No time to retrieve though, muggle frequency very high. I'll be back later to sign

Cache Hunt 817; GAFF3; Weather, Sunny; Helpers, Geogirl; Cache condition, Good; Find of the day, 1st; STATUS, Found; GPSr at GZ - 4m

After picking up Geogirl, we decide (well I decided) to get a few caches in the area. I pulled up right at GZ and we started looking at the only real place the cache could have been hidden. A thorough search gave us nothing.

I went over everything again and then decide to check others parts as well. Sure enough, I saw the cache and showed GG. With a few muggles around I went for the grab, SL and then waited for one muggle to look away and then replaced cache. Nice one. TFTC.

Finally able to get to it. Signed log when mugggles pulled in b4 I could return it. Bloke gets outa car and bends down to do shoelaces, quick as a geriatric flash I replaced unobserved.
Thanks Acko

Took a little while to track this one down but got there in the end.
No muggles at GZ but the macca's was getting a constant stream of vehicles going in and out.

TFTC

Under the cover of darkness we managed to locate the cache but we had to wait several minutes in order to extract it from it's hide. Signed log and had to wait for a few more muggles to leave before replacing the cache. TFTC.

Log now full
julzbernie

Log replaced with Log Scroll #2. Cache on!

I now work quite near to this cache, and had passing thoughts on placing a one in this little park area, but as always, never got around to it..
Had to complete this in a couple of steps due to the constant flow of muggles that favor this area so much.
First step after work was to establish the GZ with GPS, but surely enough to many muggles to actually search
Step two, was a bit of a search the following week but was soon interrupted yet again...
Finally today came here with a couple of work colleagues for lunch and while chatting i had a half decent look and finally spotted it. Sadly no one present had a pen, and since none of them inquired as to while i was circling them inquisitively, or why i needed a pen, they were left in the dark. Returned after work to sign the log. I fear my placement of the cache will make it minutely harder for the next cache finder than i had it, but such is life...

Nice hide, thanks.

SL. TFTC

Tried this cache on a day out with muggle friends and though we got the clue and also suspected that we were in the right spot still had no success. I go to the gym nearby so will try this one again soon.

Found while out on a Late Night Cache Run with friends (who are now Caching too!). TFTC

TFTC

I had to get the cache name explained to me, completely missed the reference. Had this horrible feeling as we parked near this one & saw a group of people looking like they were heading straight to GZ, but luckily they were only going to their car & left the ground clear for me to look.

I couldn't spot the cache at first, but after taking up a suggestion that I needed to put my glasses on, I looked again & this time managed to spot the container. Even managed to retrieve this one by myself, something I often find myself unable to do these days!

Thanks VK2GOM .

Easy find heaps of muggles

Found today, with alot less people around in the car park then the usual weekdays.
Thanks VK2GOM for the cache.

Just been out for a quick night-time check-up on the cache. My LED Lenser P7 saw it right away. It's still in the exact same position is was planted in. If you understand the clue/hint, it will definitely help your search. Couldn't resist a McApple pie on the way back

Looked around for a long time, trying to look unobtrusive. No joy.

No luck here, even with two of us searching.

I wasn't able to make sense of the cache name or the hint. But I had a good idea what I'd be looking for once at GZ. Two little girls were nearby, one wandered around me for a bit interested in what I was doing. Their mother called them in which gave me the chance to grab the cache, sign the log and return. Neat hide. TFTC

tftc sl quick find at 4am no one around

Hardly a muggle in sight, and the cache was in the first place I looked, how good was that! Thanks VK2GOM.

Drove past late this afternoon (4:15pm) and saw a cacher looking for it... Mr. Darcy, was that you?!

Quick find with the help of fizzy kat tftc

No problem finding cache,!
getting and replacing needs good timing(in the Daylight hours)..!
TNLN SL
Thankx VK2GOM

Got this sucka with Chopa tonight.

Easy!!!

Found the cache after some intense searching.
Difficult to retrieve due to high muggle presence (and a few shifty chavs.)
Spent about 10 minutes trying to pull out the paper to add initials to it.
Eventually gave up and decided that logging it here would suffice.
(If you have a problem with that then deal with it.)

Nice cache however
TFTC

We followed after Webby at 10:30pm and once we too used the torch we too had an easy find.

TFTC.

An easy find in the end though a torch was required for our nocturnal visit.

I drove past this one at 10:05pm on a Tuesday night to find five teenage hanging out!?! (Two groups of five tonight!)

I shall return!

Quick find and very few muggles around at 16:15 - TFTC

Just checked on the cache this afternoon. It's suffered from 'cache creep' to the tune of about 2m! I have moved it back to where it originally started out. Cache on! Thanks - Rob VK2GOM

Found with the family

Found with the family

Nice hind. Just have to think what HTR stands for?

Had us running around a bit. But after looking at the hint again. Then found quickly. HTR is the key to solving the puzzle. TFTC

I planned to stop by this little park next to McDonalds on my way back to work from the Blue Mountains, arriving just before midnight.

Long a fan of American authors and dramatists, I had no trouble whatsoever with the clever title and the clue!

However, not confident about turning up in an unknown place in downtown Penrith in the middle of the night, I e-mailed my old friend GazMag for his advice and encouragement.

He gave me the thumbs up on a night search and my first guesses at GZ were accurate -- so it was a quick find with only one muggle automobile parked nearby causing me some momentary concern.

Little container and log scroll were just fine. TNLNSL.

Many thanks to VK2GOM!

This cache had me in all sorts of trouble however, my luck changed when 'jmkhgardener' and 'fizzykat' came to lend a hand with the search.

Thanks 'fizzykat', you made this cache a lot more fun!![:o)]

Nice job 'VK2GOM'....

Tks ... VK2GOM ... GazMag

We had to come a few times for this one, today, because of muggles. The first time there was a guy with a bike sitting right where we needed to search. We went off, did another cache, and as we turned the corner, the same guy was returning with his bike and a bottle of booze for a lonely party at our intended destination. We went out looking for caches around Warragamba and decided to return for a Red Rooster lunch, while hoping for another chance at the cache. But some young bogans were intently checking out the tyres on their cars only metres from the cache.

In all, we were prevented from attemting this cache by no less than five girls applying lipstick while texting each other with their eyelashes, a computer geek trying to tie his shoe, a troupe of midgits who tumbled about and blew fire, a dog with a gammy leg attended by a butler, and a drunken hermaphrodite who couldn't sit still for haemorrhoids. But we persisted. Red Rooster is gonna make a killing from this cache. Thanks
