Happy caching,

Last find of the day #7. Found very quickly. Log was soaking wet and near impossible to extract. Signed a piece of paper and place it back in the cache with the wet log. TFTC.

found with rubymoon05.... signed as missgeo10 at the time.. have gotten a new account since then though
I am not sure I have been here before with my friend anyway found it with geofriend today.. thanks for the hunt
Another quick cache for the day...
Not knowing the area I was dreading this one with the previous logs, I really wasn't sure what to expect other than a soggy, maybe missing log sheet. To my pleasant surprise this was an easy find, but as expected a soggy log, It really needs that maintenance.

Found while on a big geo trip away with tmann421.
Sorry for the late & repeat logs as just catching up now.
A great time had, some wonderful places seen, thanks to all the NSW geo cachers.

Ive been to this one 2 times at night with no luck and reading the logs with everyone saying its in the name didnt help untill a friend that found it asked if i found it yet and when he said the name made me realise i read the cache name wrong all along, thought it said pinning... haha my bad! Rocked up tonight and found it strait away, great cache!
Grabbed the cache, replaced the log with some scrap paper, this one may need further maintenance, nice container though. Thanks
Been here 3 times and still can't find it. Been looking up and down the bank. On the side of the road and everything? Any help would be appreciated to [email protected]
Almost gave up on this one but found it in the end.
Log was a bit wet and I couldn't get it out of the container (each time I tried, bits off the log broke off).
Great park and grab - TftC

Wish I had paid more attention to the name of the cache in the beginning. Would have made things alot easier. Really liked this one though. Tried reading the comments to figure out where it is, and being a newbie, I thought 'log' actually meant a fallen tree or something, so im like 'its in a log!' until I realised a log was the bit of paper inside it.
Glad to have CSfamily with me for this one. This spot has very bad memories for me. I know the reason the crash barrier was placed here. like the cache, but hate having to revisit the place.
I thought I knew what I was looking for, but when I spotted the foreigner realised I didn't. TFTC.
Nice hide, Log is looking a little worse for wear & won't last too much longer. tyfc
Found by geodaughter two whilst randomly picking things up. Very clever hide. Couldn't write on log properly as it was very wet from recent rain.
1st find of the day, did take a while, though took longer due to GeoSon also found someone had dumped bags of toys nearby....I focused on the cache whilst the little bloke went through the pile for treasure. Nice hide! TY 92nty6
Three year olds are not so helpful when patience and persistence are the virtues required to find a cache! Will return in the future.
Been to this twice before. I just didn't look far enough. Coords are a few metres out for this one.
TFTC. Found with azazzlenic.

Needing a cache on the 6th December I decided to check this guy out again as the last time the GPS was all over place.
Today at a different time it was behaving itself and the other factor my friend the mountain man had provided some details so it was in hand a lot sooner than on my previous visit.
This is a very good cache and well thought out but the log is going to need some TLC shortly.
Thanks 92nty6 for placing this cache.

Had no idea what to look for. So looked around at GZ and finally made the decision to drive off.
We looked around at GZ for 10 minutes and finally made the decision to go. We looked in a lot of places. The obvious and not so obvious. Better luck on another day.
Second one found today with arcade2002..awesome camo but was obvious when you see it.very very delicate so be careful.
To avoid the gaze of school muggles, we thought we would wait until the school holidays to attempt this one. We were pretty sure of what we were looking for but it still took a few minutes to find. It’s a very nicely constructed cache. Thanks 92nty6.
We popped out in our lunch break to pick this one up. I was very impressed with the camo, I have not seen one like this before. The log is dry but is getting a bit tattered. SL TFTC
Like everyone has said, you know what it is when you find it! Great cache! I was lucky to be here with little traffic. TFTC.
Picked up the geokids from school and it was a beautiful warm afternoon. Looked for a little while up and down the bank and was almost going to give up when hello you dont really belong here. Great cache only seen these on the net the kids were blown away by far one of the coolest caches for them. TFTC
Geodaughter found it because she was like WOW look what I found! Lol
Busy road be careful!

Looked in the most obvious places and came up empty. GZ had me down the bank a little bit, so I searched wider and still nothing. It was when I was coming back up the bank that I saw something that seemed out of place. Talk about sneaky. Great cache 92nty6.

Heard of cache container like this but have never seen one...until now. Found by geo-wife about 6m off, but it could have had cache-creep.
Nice one.

After DNFing this one a little while ago due to muggles I was passing by today and decided to stop for another look. We expanded our search about 4 M from where we were last time and had a quick find. The Camo is starting to fall apart and the log is rather damp but I was able to sign JUST and return as found.

Made a quick detour to this one whilst in the area today.
I started searching where the pointer on the iPhone app was placed but could not find anything. I then noticed I was not actually near the pointer according to GPS, so headed in the right direction and quickly saw something that looked out of place! Signed log and replaced. Nice work on the camo 92nty6.

Log was unusable and we had a speare, so new log awaits for the next find, good camo.TFTC
tftc sl looked at 2 times used a paf i had miss read it so was looking in the wrong place
My favourite one of the day! Found with cav99 and cmac.no4. When you find it the obviousness of the name and the logs is like a slap in the face. Well done. TFTC
Lots of frustration with this one, until wessiri understood the clue. Also found with cmacno4.
Now i have found it i don't know how i missed it the first time. What can i say, you really should arrive with an open mind. Clever camo. Thanks
Wow my DNFs are really starting to add up. Checked all the spots i could think of and came away empty handed. Nice location though. Cheers
I spent way too much time on the seemingly obvious spots, before a paf showed me the error of my ways! Thanks 92nty6, very clever, and yes I have seen these before, I just need to think more laterally at times!

On the way home, I always make a detour if I can. GeoGirl was busy working out Hangman as I pulled up. I raced over the road and started looking. Hmmm...A fragile cache...hmmm...I spent around 5 min, just checking here and there, when I look at one place and spied something. Almost ready to ignore it, I checked it and found the great camo and cache. Very nice. Called GG over to show her and I SL and then replaced again. A fav from me, TFTC.

Returning home after completing another of 92nty6's caches, I just could not miss out on having a shot at this one. Again, coords were good so the find was not too difficult.

I was pretty sure what I was looking for here, because I'd already encounted similar-sounding camo in the Blue Mountains and have three caches on this general theme 'in progress' in my workshop. But this one still took a bit of looking . . .
Not helping my investigations was the school up Kingswood Road, over on the opposite side, with lots of yelling and screaming from the playground and bells going off at intervals!
But GZ is far enough away that I didn't feel too obvious.
Published coordinates were accurate. Yes, it's a bit fragile but in reasonably good shape. Log scroll was dry. TNLNSL.
Many thanks to 92nty6 for another one.

I correctly guessed what I was looking for but I thought I knew where GZ was and refused to follow the GPS!?! It was right. I was wrong. Once I trusted it my youngest son made a quick find.

Our second for the day and again, another find by my other half. We didn't get the whole cache name reference until we were leaving. I got the frog by the legs and misinterpreted it. TFTC
