Looked in all the obvious spots and even the not so obvious, couldnt find it , boo for our first attempt
I had a look under. I had a look up. I could not find. Ran away when pedestrians came.
Found before ICC Christmas Event.
Quick find for a Gong Suburbs cache, cheers Hoojar

Nice quick find. It's crazy to think how many people walk past not knowing it's there. Thanks
Almost gave up, was searching the wrong side when I ran into a friend who pointed it out! Thanks KP
Found it this afternoon with dad and a coincidence that my uncle and cousins were playing at the park! A bit of climbing required and you probably won't be able to reach it if you are shorter than 5ft.
TFTC!

Looked high, then low & high, then high again. Found some double sided tape & nothing attached so wondering if we found the cache less hide?
found it great place for a cache i remember finding one of the other caches here
One of my favorite finds! Went in at dark and was successful. The only intrusion was a big fat huntsman spider right at the location!
Found with Bloss90

Best spot I've found!
Read the old logs so we did a night time mission, muggle free and once we saw it, it was just a matter of chasing off a sneaky huntsman living close by.
Pocketed a Canadian coin ABCQ8J, so absolutely stoked!
Left something as scary as that huntsman.
Found with hoppy011
Great job guys!

Found on a second visit, took much taller geo-hubby (who got a cramp in leg when getting down hahaha) and not a sign of a muggle anywhere. Dropped of the geocoin. TFTC Hoojar.
A fun little exploration of possible hiding spots in the middle of the day. I ended up finding it on the opposite side from where I started looking.
Signed log and had to wait for a couple of muggles to cross the bridge and move on before I could replace it.
Took TB.

Nice and easy, knew where I was gonna look just had to find it again. Thanks for the hide
So many muggles today. Two geokids got stung by nettles. And no luck here today, will seek some advice from a fellow geocacher who has already found it, then will return.
After being asked to supervise ozvixen’s attempt at Mt Ousley, requested a return favour and put her climbing skills to use to help me grab this nemesis of the series. After three previous visits were foiled by school recess muggles, rain and darkness making a climb too dangerous or arms that were too short to reach far enough inside, cache was finally crossed off the list exactly where I knew it would be (even though the earlier cache at this location was before my time).
I eventually worked out that it could only be in one of four spots, and of cause it was in the last one!
Did not find - not from lack of trying spent about an hour looking - but I am only a short person - don't know if this gave me a disadvantage. Will attempt again soon.
Got lucky with cache and spotted it fairly quickly.
Thanks for the hunt Hoojar.
Thanks for the hunt Hoojar.
Another one down to continue the streak today. A nice quick one once I was in exactly the right spot. It has taken a while to knock off my own suburb but got there in the end. TFTC!
Would of found it quicker if we had of started from the other side of the bridge! TFTC!
Muggle alley. Eventually found, knew where to expect it but dodging onlookers and started at the wrong end (think it is at the wrong end technically). TFTC.
Clue does certainly narrow it down. Quick find once the kids on bikes cycled away. TFTC # 262
Out for an afternoon caching grabbing a few of the new local caches.
Arrh! this place has much caching history. Good to see another cache on here.
Thanks

Glad to finally see some new local caches. Easy find thanks to the hint, TFTC.
F@ was holding Willow while Jo tried finding this one. Wasn't going to happen! Roles were quickly reversed. TFTC
Nice easy find as I have done previous caches here before.. tftc

As soon as we arrived there were really only two places to look, up or down. The clue narrowed it down. Made the find and signed the log. There was a family teaching their daughter to ride just round the corner. Found with snorris.
Was wondering when someone was going to put a cache here! Sent the tall one up while I stayed down below and cheered him on TNLN SL TFTC
While I was searching at the wrong place geo mummy spotted the as soon as she arrived at GZ. I had the honour of receiving it. TFTC!
Found with my Dad Toadmiester7. This is a special place for us as he taught me to ride my bike here. Thank You Hoojar for you cache.
Another cache completed with geo daughter Tadpole7. This is a special area for us as this is where I taught her to ride her bike. Plenty of run off room either side of this path.
Thanks Hoojar for your cache, series and some great memories.

Found the other 2 caches here before as well, so easy today. I was surprised there was nobody around, must have been the weather? Normally muggles can defenitely be an issue here!

Had me looking in the wrong place for some time before extending myself.. SL..TFTC
Had to persist with this one, finally got it and muggles approaching, Baja yelled our " hurry up and take the picture before we fall... " go away with that one. TFTC
We'd been scoping out this bridge to put a cache here. Managed to grab a find between the walkers and cyclists. FTF! TFTC
Found while riding to my mums place ...
This is becoming a pretty popular location!
