Could CO please do a muggle check on this one as last 2 searchers have not been able to find the cache?
Thanks
Thanks
My GPS put GZ right in the middle of the bike path and, taking note of the hint, I searched every possible location (or at least I think I did) on both sides of the path ... but alas, I struck out on this one. I shall have to return another day.
Woo hoo - 750 caches found in our first 364 days of caching landmark anniversary
This is a beautiful walk and I only wish we time to do the whole series !

Another DNF for me. Lots of muggles about as it was a nice warm sunny day so I did not look at my iPad for earlier logs. I had to enter the co-ords manually on my GPSr. When I arrived home I read previous logs which I think have given me a clue of where i went wrong. Thanks for the hide which I will find next time.

Enjoyed wander around this area, Accompany with Heather - found and signed the log. Thanks ALL7.
A pleasant walk along the shared walk/cycleway, and a short excursion across some boggy land and the cache was soon in hand. In relatively good condition, although the lid has come loose.

Decided we had time for one more cache before Geogran had to leave for home. We grew up in this area and it has changed. Bit wet underfoot - pity we didn't bring the gumboots. Couldn't find the cache until Doc tripped over it in the long grass. Decided this was not where it was supposed to be so replaced it at GZ according to the hint given (might need to be checked for accuracy). Cheers
I wandered down from the road for an easy find, heaps of muggles about. Thanks.
Nice park started at number 1 but could not find that one. Found this one. Onto the next one.
Found after about 20 minutes. It's amazing how something so out in the open can be hidden so well.
Easy find with the dog. I particularly liked the way the cache was so obviously presented, I am starting to sense a cache style which may hold me in good stead for the rest of the series.

On our way to Budgewoi, we made a quick stop at Picnic Point Reserve and picked up this one while we were there. The GPSr took us to a different tree but the find was made soon after.
Nice one, thanks ALL7.

Left hubby and Geoson to do some fishing and went in search of a few caches.
This one leaped out at me from about 10m away.

By now it was getting dark which made this a bit challenging. Gpsr was jumping around. Didn't expect it to be there! SL. TFTC.
Caching in the rain. After a DNF on Life in the Mud, Needed to get one for the calender. Did this series a while back, but this was a dnf on that day. Noticed things had been changed, so came by for another look.. GPSr had me about 6M off, but was an easy find just the same. TFTC
Found by Sunshine Toledo and Her Majesty at 10:50am. The cache was found quickly after we found the right side to enter from. The cache is in good condition. TFTC
Pretty quick grab saw something from a distance that didn't look right and bang had cache in hand. TFTC

Spending a few days at The Entrance with the opportunity to pick up some Caches.
Quick find.

Found on our trip back to Canberra from the Gold Coast. Another nice drive-by type cache on this hot morning (39 in Sydney really made us worry). A nice easy walk to GZ, where the GPS had to settle before it told me where the cache was. What a cool little hide, amazing what you can do with a container like this. Lovely place. A few muggles around with their dogs and stuff, but they didn't disrupt us at all. Got the munzee nearby too. TFTC ALL7!
Catching up on logging after a long break. Been a while so I cannot remember seeing any issues with the cache . TFTC ALL7

A quick and easy find for me today. Thanks for the walk . . . eatmorchikin & Stigglepot, Brisbane
Brother and sister-in-law took me for a drive down to The Entrance for the pelican feeding. We stopped at the various caches in this series. Brother used to have a cache on the nearby little bridge which has been archived. No trouble locating this container.
This one took a while to find as we searched too far in then we had too. Once we found the rabbish cache was in hand found with lilmissy.
This was a quick find, followed the trail in and checked hint picked a likely target and found the new log book. SL #945 TFTC

Today went to visit my cache and checked as cache still there, as well... Wait for reply for enable listing open yet... thanks
again cache were gone... We really apologies to cachers who DNF's.... Better archive thanks
With 10 DNF's in a row, and one bogus find claim, I think the CO needs to check on this one and replace it.
Could not find. Like others before us, we found the Velcro, if this was the attachment position. Can you please check this, as it has not been sighted for some time.
No luck !

No luck for us here today but some interesting goings-on. Water was ankle deep over the approach to the bridge after yesterday's heavy rain. A wierd guy who didn't speak was staring at the water then waded in, retrieved a large plastic box with soggy bread crumbs in it (not the cache container) and stalked away. We found two odd little fish traps made out of drink bottles attached to the bridge by string but no cache. Will have to wait for another day. Cheers... Gaztek
[?] Found the velcro where the cache had been placed but there was nothing to sign as the cache had gone walkabouts, we believe.
GeoWife01 and I took a visit to the Central Coast today, started at Chittaway Bay and progressed all the way around the lake to The Entrance. We had a most interesting and enjoyable morning collecting 14 finds, 3 DNF and 1 "thought we would check anyway".
This was our third DNF for the day. We found the Velcro where the cache should have been however, the little blighter is gone!!
Tks ... ALL7 ... GazMag

was with alturners of a day of bike riding. this was one of the few which he had found and i had not. He didn't have the coords since they had been deleted of his gps so we looked under three bridges before the cache was ound. TFTC!!
Found with Liz and Bruce on what was quite a good day for caching. Thanks to ALL7 for the cache.
Having met up with Victorian cacher and friend Alansee we planned a big day out to do as many caches as possible. We started off ok but found some of the tricky hides too hard to find - this cache however was one we were able to find.
Thanks to ALL7.
Thanks to ALL7.
Have to admit I had some help on this one. Spotted Grant and Co searching an area close to where we had searched last week to no avail. Had to be geocachers! Grant found the hide and kindly let me sign the log although I had not done much searching. Makes up for last week's failed search - don't know why my GPS was pointing so far away!
#57 and our 10th and final for today (with no DNF's!) - a new record for us. We were sprung by lizzyn out on a walk who recognised what we were up to and asked us if we were Geocaching. She joined our search, having been sent on a wild goose chase by her GPS last week while searching for this one. We soon had the cache in hand and the log was signed. TFTC, M!
Found on a run to the central coast from Sydney for a change of scenery & to do some caching in a new caching area on a lovely sunny saturday.
Nice quick find in a lovely area, we managed to squeeze in a TB, it only just fitted but we`re sure it`ll be picked up soon.
TN,SL TFTC.
Cheers from CATONY.

Great hide! Took me a while to locate. Took TB Left nothing as there wasn't much room. TFTC!
Thought we better come finish the series before my premium membership runs out in a few days
But on the bright side this cache was found after a bit of a search right under a painting muggles nose. Managed to sign and replace without any questions. TFTC

Found this afternoon after a leisurely picnic lunch not far away. The youngest crew member rode his bike while the rest of us wandered along, enjoying the gorgeous weather - thanks!
SL. First time I have encountered this type of cache retainer. Great idea.
#2 for today.
#2 for today.
We came down this morning to do this Chittaway Bay series by ALL7. After failing at #1 this one was an quick find. There is a problem with the velcro as it not sticking very well. This may need maintenace soon. Thanks ALL7.
I was looking on the wrong side when I spotted this one from a distance. Thanks for the hide.
On approach we realised we had been here before for another cache hidden under the same structure. We had to dodge a few muggles before swooping in for a quick find. TFTC.
Joint *FTF* with Jonignite.
We happened to be working not too far away when the notifications came through for this new series. It was about time for a quick break so off we went. The second in the series was in a familiar spot and a quick look around revealed the cache. We managed to get out of there without too much mud on us. Thanks ALL7 for another great series.

A quick find late in the night, not a single sole on this spooky waterside hide, not even from the nearby skateboard ramp.
