Find #: 3,295
Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Overcast winter afternoon
Cache condition: Good

I was heading down the path and it wasn't much of a diversion to GZ. I quickly determined the right level, and soon had CIH as it is pretty visible at certain angles - TNLNSL TFTC

Second attempt at finding this one. Was a little off last time with the gps. Managed to find it this time with helps from the other half

Quickly found once on location, nice part of the world. A few different lizards were spotted on the walk. Crazy to think that this was under sea level millions of years ago.

Acquired the clue from the container - no idea what it means though. Will look at it again some point soon. TFTC!

Another enjoyable day's caching with morty8888. Today we headed from the coast to the hills to get away from the coastal showers. Most caches were either off fire trails or bush tracks.

After a walk along the fire trail and a brief search it was CIH.

With the rain holding off and the Hills calling, it was the perfect combo for a day with Oldmorty.
We strolled along the fire trail to this cache and again it was an easy find. TFTC!

Great to get outdoors. Thanks for giving us a reason to explore.

The cache is in good order. Inside is dry.

Located at 7:22am. #1005.

Out early to attend the CO’s CITO and decided to collect a couple of his caches prior to the event commencing. This was my second find of the morning.

After locating Jonah, I came back along the track to this cache. I’ve been avoiding lower D/T-rated Traditionals over the past year but this being a Regular-sized cache, I made the exception.

There was a neighbouring muggle nearby in his backyard so I trod carefully towards GZ where, after a couple of other niches proved cache-less, I made the find. Log was signed and cache replaced.

Cheers for the placement PPE.

Большое Спасибо! תודה! L’chaim! TFTC!

Geoson is learning to drive, so a Sunday drive was in order, and we decided to find a few caches along the way, well more to wards the end of the drive, so that log book times were not affected.
Cache was a quick find thanks to a generous clue. Thanks PPE . The 4Rods.

28-Dec-18
OCW the Bebes to clear up a few caches.

Very hot day at about 42 degrees when we arrived. Searched at GZ and the Bebes found a plastic bag with log book but no container. Signed, replaced and informed the CO. Tftc

With the focus on clearing out caches withon a 20km radius from home and the final for this series sitting within I needed to grab the info from this one.

We took advantage of minimal Sydney traffic to zigzag our way here.

The temperature was really high today so I am glad it was only a short walk to GZ.

Once there I found the log book and pen in a plastic bag tucked in some rocks...... no container and no additional info.
I signed our names and returned as found. I had a look further afield but didn’t find the original container.

CO has been notified and was kind enough to send me the info I needed to work on the final.

Came through this morning with JJCC looking for a alternate cache type today in order to fill in a day for the Tomorrow will be different challenge cache that we are working on. A nice sunny morning and we found ourselves a couple of metres from GZ...searching, searching. In the end we systematically search wider and wider and on a pass from a lower elevation back up we noticed the cache. With the container in hand, we signed the log before replacing as found, but not before taking note of the needed information. Both the container and log are in good condition. Thanks for the cache Purplepeopleater.

The following TBs came through for the mileage: Bob geoMinion, Dave geoMinion, Evil geoMinion, Jerry geoMinion, Larry geoMinion, Mary Hyde's Treasure, Stuart geoMinion, teamMerlin's 7 Deadly Ducks Tag (Lust), Vanlith The Youngling, Hidden Creatures Geocoin TB, Gold-Fin Trackable and Treasure X Trackable, Little P.

GPS bounced around a bit in this area but finally averaged out the right spot to look and found the caches hiding spot. TNLNSL. TFTC.

Stopped off on my way back home from the Amateur Radio NSW (HAM Radio) bi-monthly Trash & Treasure sale at Quarry Road Dural, to find this one. It had been a fun filled morning of HAM radio junk scrounging, and a nice BBQ lunch with lots of friendly chit chat, but now it was time to collect some more caches on the homeward journey. This was the 9th of 15 finds, and 1 DNF, for the day.

Parked the geomobile half way around Citadel Crescent, then ducked down the access pathway between the houses to reach the bush reserve. Followed the bush track down to GZ for a nice quick find. TNLNSL, then replaced as found.

It's a nice bit of bushland hiding down behind all of the suburban houses, and pleasing to find that numerous access points have been provided to get to it. TFTC Purplepeopleater.

Find #2311

After a DNF at Jonah, we continued along the track up to this one. No major drama to find the cache, even though it was cleverly hidden away from the first obvious look.

We took the hard way to GZ, but that was part of the adventure Great cache with lots to look at in it. Master Q picked 2 tours so we replaced with a toy and a small flashlight. Also left a TB.

Beautiful spot, thank you for placing this cache. A lizard gave the spot away!
No TB or any thing else here though.
 
11-Oct-17
It bothered me that we only found a little zip lock with a mouldy logbook so we came back for a second look. There it was, a nice container with tradeable and TB in it. We took the TB and will drop it somewhere soon. Please bear in mind when you find a zip lock in roughly the same location, it is not the right one! TFTC

Moving house to a new area, also means there are a lot of new cache close to home waiting to be found. So today it was time to clear some caches around Castle Hill Creek.
It turned out to be a nice walk through bushland, with all caches found.

Thanks for the cache.

#4315- A short but pleasant wander along the track with a bushy hide at the end. Made me feel very at home. Since the last entry in the log book appeared to be February, I moved the TB's along. Thanks
