Full log to follow

As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Even though this one is disabled atm, the positive logs lead to to search for it as I was not far away looking for another cache.

I located it in speedy time, signed the slightly damp log and was on my way.

Love the cryptic clue, not at all what I expected.

TFTC found replaced log in snap lock bag and dried out container
A few grazing friends around too

Found it and replaced the log put it in a snap lock bag

Being the closest to home thought I would knock this off a few ago but go to today and it had been disabled. Really close to the point of being able to write on , just damp.
TFTC

Found it by chance.

Found while away geocaching with tmann421. Thanks to all the great hiders out there that enabled us to see some fantastic views & places in NSW. Sorry for the late logs but it will be Xmas before I catch up

Another good find with TuisReturn
We enjoyed touring around the area finding caches

LOG WET but we dried out as much moisture as possible - may still need changing.
TFTC

Will try to get to this one over the Christmas break.

To the CO

Cache was pretty much wet and we're not able to write on. Tries to dry it as much as I can. Please check serviceability of the cache.

Cheers Delta 142

Bit of an ordinary hide, but great clue. Thanks

Tftc. Nice spot here!

Ah, we were staring at the sky... Realised this was not the right idea.

Keeping the August streak going with this find.
Was looking in the places that I thought the hint indicated but with no luck. Read a few of the past logs and realised I was on the wrong track. After that, it didn't take much star gazing before I made the find.
SL TFTC

Really gotta think outside the box

Found with the kids. Tftc

found after working out the clues, tftc

Nice Easy. A lot of stars to gaze at...TFTC

Took a little searching, checking of past logs - the clue, yes, got that one.... finally revealed itself! TFTC

tyfc

This one took way to long for the hint to sink in and didn't help with the freshly mowed grass and the fact it has been a while since last uncovered. Anyhow got there in the end TFTC

Streak day 103 #1047

The 'not in the...' Log made this one much easier to find, that would have been the first place we looked otherwise! TFTC

Even with the stalky dog we found this one after the geodad's prior DNF, we found all of our previous DNFs today

TFTC

I searched in the wrong spot previously. The coords are out by 4 metres. I had a feeling it was not near the trees. Just needed to prove my theory.

TFTC. Found with azazzlenic.

Cleaning up a few of the caches that do not have smileys in this area and this guy was next on the list.
Lovely area to live but you would sure need a ride on mower to keep the grass down.
After the cache was found I wondered what the hint meant!!!
Thanks 92nty6 for bringing me to this lovely area.

Had a good look around. Was unable to locate.

Had a bit of a look around then widened our search and soon had cih....tftc

Catching up on logs. Found after a bit of a search tftc

Keeping our streak going...have to travel further now...so took a drive up to this one...Nice quick find...T4TC

Didn't get the clue until I saw the cache. It is all in the name!

Dropped by to grab this one after watching a game of baseball down the road. TFTC.

Thanks for the quickie,cheers

Had a facepalm moment when I figured out WHAT stars and had cache within seconds after that.

Found during our lunch break. Once it dawned on me what the hint meant, we had CIH straight away. SL TFTC

I work near here but have never been into this pleasant, still rural, area. The GPSr had us looking in the wrong spot but a review of the hint had us soon in the right place. Thanks.

Easy find with the hint. TFTCM
Cheers

Dolphia found it in a sec. thanks for leading us here...

Quick find. Clue made sense once we looked around the environment. TFTC SL.

Easy find. As soon as I got to GZ I knew what the hint meant so found cache in seconds. TFTC

It certainly wasnt a day for caching, the heavens had opened up but the urge to find some plastic was overwhelming.

After a short search at GZ I was starting to wonder where this cache could be. Thinking like a star I looked in the obvious places, then a light-bulb moment occured and the star soon revealed itself.
Thanks

Easy find, it's all in the name and hint..
Team Arkaik Monty

awesome stars at night!
put the clues together pretty quick after reading the posts
Team arkaikmonty night time finds

Very confused....

Out with Muggle sister in law and asked if we could call in and grab this 1. Was looking in the wrong location to start with and took the clue to mean something different. Had a rethink and made a quick find

Nice easy

Spent some time looking for this one as I was looking in the wrong place - but found it eventually! Thank you!

Cunning clue - tftc.

Quick rind. TFTC

A thinking man's cache!

Found with wessiri and cav99. Stars everywhere, it was very hard to pick it!

Found it today with cav99 and cmac.no4. Very cluey, its all in the name and the logs. I like it. TFTC

This one took me some time but i finally seen the stars despite the black snake looking on. TFTC

This ended up being the goal find for the trip.

800 finds for the year .

Took a bit to locate it as it was well covered.

Thanks

Right finally got down to it and found it. I thought I searched there before. Must have just needed to look just fractionally more.
Thanks Acko

Scratched my legs

No luck today

Wear long pants, my woman scratched her shins

Flippin 'ell another one
Poop Acko

Found the star we were looking for thanks 92nty6.

Took a little while to find this one. Once we got to GZ had a good idea what to expect, with the cache name. It was just a matter of trial and error till we found the right one. This was our last cache for the day before heading home. Thanks for this one 92nty6!

TFTC, cheers:). 2nd time lucky with this one.

Find #1133 - 3 for today. Found on 13/08/11 1:53 PM
With trioangels and Lost_Gecko. A quick drive by find with Lost_Gecko working out the clues. Thanks. TNSLLN

This one was really frustrating, I kept going to the obvious spots, only to eventually find the cache somewhere completely different, I suppose I should have used the correct 'angle' to start with. Thanks 92nty6. No idea what the hint means..

i looked and looked, i keeped looking where the gps was putting me about 5-10m from gz in the end used my phone a frend and then i was looking for the right stars i wish i did not look at the hint as it threw me off

Stupid us didn't get the hint until we found it and were writing log. TFTC

Found with the family

Found with the family

A quick and easy park and grab for us today. TFTC

NickoHeap and I spotted it almost at the same time. Co-rds were pretty spot on. TFTC

I saw a lot of stars but I only had to pay attention to two of them!

TFTC.

While I was searching for this one, a young woman and her daughter pulled up nearby. (I later discovered she lived only a few houses away.) She asked me why people kept stopping at this particular spot and wandering around! So I gave her my very best introduction to geocaching. She even wrote down the GCA address! At least there's one less local who won't be worried about the strange goings-on at Calverts Road . . .

Well, I looked around for a while until it struck me that I should consider the title and the clue. (I had been worried that the coordinates might be wrong and was scouting out more distant hiding spots.) That's when it hit me. Very clever.

The little container was in good shape and the log sheet was dry. Strangely enough, my Oregon 300 thought that the published coords were nearly spot-on (only 2 metres out).

Many thanks to 92nty6!

Easy find.

Cheers

After a few minutes, after checking at the posted co-ords, which proved to be out by a few metres. Cache finally in hand. TFTC

Made a detour on the way to work this morning to look for this one. GPSr was all over the place at first, but it finally settled down to send me looking somewhere about 5m away from where I eventually found the cache.

As an experiment, I pulled out my iphone to see how it was for accuracy, and it had GZ about 14m out. I think this is my third attempt at caching with the iphone and the 'best' result for it so far, so I guess that confirms that I should stick with the GPSr.

Thanks 92nty6.

Had not been at GZ very long when 'bikerbuddy' turned up. I love how you never know just who you will meet at a cache!!

Within a few minutes 'bikerbuddy' had the cache in hand. We both signed the log and replaced it from whence it came.[9D]

Tks ... 92nty6 ... GazMag

#774

A fellow cacher encouraged me to go look for this one this morning, possibly as a test of the coordinates, and possibly to laugh at me if I failed to find it. Fortunately the geo-gods shone upon me. I found Gazmag already on site, looking about, and together we briefly discussed the clue and decided we knew where it was. I think the coordinates were reasonably accurate. But then again, I do have an Oregon 550.

Thanks for another one!

found with TeamBooo Thanks

FTF with Boosdad
on our way home from visiting mum at the hospital we grabbed some tea then the email sounded to notify us of a new cache so a fast u turn was done and we headed off only armed with iphone. the phone jumped around a bit after 25 mins of searching we paf who kindly baught a torch to us. another 15mins we had cache in hand. thank you very much 92nty6

FTF!! With Teambooo.

After visiting a sick relative in hospital we were returning home to feed the family when we received a notice of a new cache. Geo-wife (teambooo) asked where it was and after a bit of explaining she knew exactly where we needed to go. A quick U-turn and we headed straight for GZ.

We arrived at GZ only to find we had no real GPS nor torch so after 25 minutes of searching a PAF was needed and they also provided additional illumination. After another 15 minutes of search we had the CIH. Signed the log and returned to its hide.

Thanks 92nty6 for the cache.

Published

On my way out the door to get a FTF.in Richmond when team boo rang up for a little bit of help.
A little hesitant to help but I'm a big soft and they were in need of a torch, so I thought i would at least lend them my torch.
Soon after the team had CIH and smiles on their face for the persistence had paid off.
Great effort team boo and boo's dad.

Thanks For The Cache 92nty6
Went and found cache but needed some assistance thank god for PAF's thanks Boo's Dad and TeamBooo
