Thanks for putting in the effort. Gave us a bit of a scare when we pulled it out. Fell andgot a green wet butt injuring my friend in the process
With batapus around the dam, quick find at GZ, pen ran out of ink though so photo proof below.
A nice quick find after spending a while at some of the caches. Very slippery getting down the rock. TFTC
Out with Jennyfromthefarm doing the power trail today. Happy to say he got around to all but one of the active ones. This we had to do a quick test to see if we could touch before retrieving. Cool container and hide.
Went out to do some Manly Dam caches with Discobob3 today.

With pdbunce and minnie28 as we set off on the loop of Manly Dam. Another great hide and another cache guardian . SL RL
Two of us finally got around to doing a walk around the dam to check on all of our caches.
Replaced the log sheet and put the cache back into position.
Cache is ready and waiting to be found.

My kind of find where you have to earn it, though forgot a pen (excuse to ride back through real soon). Tfth
A girlfriend from Melbourne was in Sydney with work for a few days, and she said that she'd love to come and learn about geocaching. From memory, this was one of the ones that we could not find today, despite extensive searching...

Finally got around to replacing this log sheet today. All new and dry and ready to sign. Also replaced the cache camo to its intended position, as it had suffered some cache creep.
If someone reads this note before setting off to find this cache, It would be greatly appreciated if you could bring a replacement log - the size to fit a bison tube. You can download logsheet templates free at https://www.techblazer.com/. We're guessing the 1.25" size would be best. Thanks!
Took the slippery slope down to the cache which we found easily enough - bit creepy! TFTC
Found today with Geokiddies. TFTC. Cache log full. Didn't bring any spares to replace.
Great cache and location. SL TFTH TFTC replaced as found ready for the next geo-adventurers. Thanks goes to the CO for bringing me to this location.
Took me a little time to find the best way down, but once I was near, I spotted the unusual camouflage fairly briskly.
Another great cache on this cool loop walk.

Went around the dam much the the kids disgust. They were not in the mood for a long walk. At least finding some GCs broke it up for them. Gave this a favourite also as I thought it was so well done. Loved the GCs around the dam, so creative!
With a day off work today i thought id go for a walk and grab a cache up in this neck of the woods.
There was still quite a bit of water on the path as i was heading for the GZ. Id hate to have gone after this one last week during the heavy rains.
When i reached the spot i made a quick discovery in the second spot i checked.
The container is in good condition and the log is dry.
Thanks.

zargfinders I found your cache ZFPT12 - Flowing River on 13/11/20, 1:40 pm. This is my find 2833 and find # 9 today. Great camouflage. A quick and easy find. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
The rule I’ve found often works for Zargfinders ...trust nothing, question everything .
Relatively straightforward here after getting the right angle. Tftc

Went on a cache maintenance trip around the dam this afternoon. Decided to leave this cache where we found it, which was very close to its original home, but not quite.
Second attempt and got it. First time I was searching everywhere. So decided to go to next cache then came back. Looking in same spot but turned and spotted it. How did I miss the first time.
Found the poor chap at the base of his tree. Have re homed him where i think he should be based on the clue
Geoboy spotted this one after a little searching. We tried very hard not to disturb the beautiful resident water dragon, fortunately we found an alternative route back up.
Today was the day to complete the ZFPT.
So we did it! We finished it in 6 hours.
Had to call CO for assistance. Found 20/21
As we missed a clue we did the guess and check
strategy until we found the final!
TFATC Zargfinders Appreciate Your Efforts.

Last time I was here my old phone GPS wasn't working well but this time I found it easily. Too big to be real but nice camo. SL and replaced. TFTC
Found by geohubster, the kids loved the camo. TFTC.
Log regarding the series: Twice a year I am able to convince the fam to come caching for the day - mothers day and my birthday! So with my birthday taken up by kids activities we headed out for a family day out today. We found 20 out of 20 caches in this series! Including the five that had a DNF before us. Geo 4 yr old managed the whole track without complaint, although it took us 5 3/4 hrs to do the whole loop with only a quick morning tea and lunch break. The track was very wet after a week of heavy rain so it slowed us down significantly as we scrambled around the edges trying to keep our feet dry (thankfully the 4 yr old was equipped with water proof boots so at least he wasn't slowed down even further...). Parking cost us $35 for the day - which I wasn't expecting - yikes! We could have parked outside the park but the alternate thought of making the kids walk even further meant it was money well spent. What a great series. We had a lot of fun, pity the weather wasn't warmer, we would have a lot of fun swimming here too. Thanks so much for placing and maintaining this PT.

After a long day at the zoo we decided to go for some caching.
We (jsson, Sivun and myself) logged as IJS.
A sunny day perfect for a longer walk. We started off rather late but managed to walk the series within around 4 hours. We had some DNF and one cache we did not have in our gps. A very nice series with some challenging caches too.
Thanks for placing a cache for me to enjoy and find.

So much wildlife in this reserve! I was amazed at some of the critters we saw in our day of caching.
