Logs
Cache has now been confirmed as missing by several previous finders, after DNFs going back to June. The owner hasn't been on the site since April. Maybe it's time this one was archived.
I hate these type of hides got harassed by a parent,play ground hides should be banned!
As this was a playground we felt somewhat awkward so went to GZ had one look and then left. Maybe we will come back at night when we will be more inconspicuous.
Tried to find this one with eaviate, but it was in a park and we couldn't find it in the obvious spot so didn't bother with a huge look.
I needed a quick & easy find tonight to keep my streak going, so the girls & I came to this little park at around 7:30pm.
The GPS pointed to a spot that matched up with the hint perfectly. I looked all over this location, but couldn't find the cache. I then looked over everything else in the park & still couldn't find the cache, going back occasionally to check the first spot again.
Eventually the cold got too much for us, and the sounds of drunks in the park got too close for me to feel comfortable here anymore & we left. Later that night I checked with bikerbuddy and he confirmed that the first place I looked was where he had found the cache.

Found today with pjmpjm on our trig hunt.
This one was a bit tricky, but only because 2 old men hanging around a playground is not a good thing! Lucky for us we had our Hi-Vis vests on and the young mother with the 4 little girls probably thought we were on council business.
The cache was soon in hand and returned to its spot.

Although I really appreciate all new caches placed anywhere near the Blue Mountains, I have to admit that I don't really like hides on playgrounds. They're easy to navigate for families with young children, but can be awkward for men on their own.
Anyhow, rogerw3 and I turned up here today while on one of our trig hunting expeditions, wearing our fluoro vests, and seem to have attracted little attention from the mother with several children at the other end of the playground. Perhaps she thought that we were official playground inspectors from the Council!
Fortunately, rogerw3 found the cache container within seconds and we completed the log formalities and were soon on our way. All was well with the cache.
Many thanks to jmkhgardener.

Found our first cache, kids enjoyed the hunt, i know what a nano is now for next time, very clever melmick
Today was very overcast and had rained all morning. This kept the muggles at bay!?!
A nice easy, quiet find.

Found it I spent most of my time looking at the wrong piece of equipment. Hint helped heaps
Still some light rain which was enough to keep the muggles away, geo-wife made a quick find, thanks.
All was quiet at GZ this afternoon, the cache was located without too much trouble thanks to the very useful hint supplied.

Clever little hide, despite having it in hand very quickly. Colour and positioning should see this one keep out of sight from those muggling kids .

Starting to like these caches as you get to know the parks.
Nice job! Thanks Acko

I think the difficulty rating for this one may be a bit high. Bikerbuddy is good, but he had it in has hands instantly on arrival, as it appears others have too. Being school holidays, it could have been an issue, but was all clear today. The kids availed themselves of the play equipment as always. Thanks for the cache.
Looks like everyone was on their game today. Turned up to GZ soon after work to make an instant find. As well finding that there is already a good list of finders in such a short time. Good to see a nano with a different colour. TFTC.
Thanks For The Cache
Joint FTF with Malvic3
Standing in car park at work when notice came through
less then 4km away so we decided to go have a try for a FTF and soon enough had cache in hand
Nice looking park at GZ

Nice easy cache, thought we mayve had FTF as there wasn't any logs online yet. But it wasn't to be. TFTC
