This was not easy to find, and after I saw it had to fetch an implement from the car to remove it. After logging I replaced it so that it was no longer jammed in place. Thanks Nudge74 for a good but really small hide.

Staying nearby so went for an after dinner walk. Had trouble finding the cache at first but read through previous logs & finally 'J' spotted the hiding spot. Tricky retrieval by 'D'. SL TNLN TFTC

We had some unfinished caching business in Muswellbrook but did a few extra ks to grab a few in Scone and Aberdeen as well.
This was one we DNF'd last visit. Today we had a quick find due to a few hints in previous logs. There are still a couple of spots for names on the log but it wont last long. Thanks nudge74
Took an averaged waypoint which may help others.

Found it

Found it needs new log and coordinate fixed

this cache was pretty easy cache and geodad was just the right height for this cache so it gave us an advantage for findig this cache tftc tee hee. ....
 
07-Jun-15
After a search around for this one at the coordinates luckily we read a previous log saying the coordinates were wrong and to stay outside the gates,So we did that and thanks to his height Mr Minion found the cache quickly,It took a bit of time to actually retrieve the cache needing tott .Thanks for the cache Nudge74 tnln sl

This 1 is still there, it's Definitely NOT in the grounds. Took a bit of searching in the dark dodging muggles and wotnot. Finally spotted it when the coast was clear. Cords a bit off but i think within the 10m range. If i was to lend a hand to fellow geocachers i'd say, stay on the footpath, slightly above ur head and bring a pen or tweezers for extraction. Will fav point this 1 for i loiked the challenge it gav. Tftc
 
27-May-15
Took time in the dark. Difficult getting container out. High muggle area even in dark.Tftc
 
27-May-15
Coordinates had us well inside the grounds and feeling uncomfortable about being there. After readin back through logs it was obvious the coords are well out.
 
27-May-15
Coordinates need checking. Well out.
 
14-May-15
Found early morning on the way to work at Boggabri. A few passing muggles but the cache was located after a few minutes search. Many thanks Nudge74

Checked cache, still some room in log. All good

We stayed nearby overnight, and picked up several finds in foot. Reading the previous logs we guessed the coords might be off, and searched somewhere else that matched the hint. Found about 10m away, not in the tree. Thanks Nudge74.
 
29-Mar-15
Gave up on this one after reading logs saying that the coordinates were out. Will keep an eye on it if someone puts updated coordinates. Not really a great place for a cache a driveway to a school

After numerous attempts finally located. Hurrah. Find #3 for our trip tftc
 
Well this was a head scratcher....after numerous searches in one local we were about to give up...Geokid walking back to the car searched a little more and spied the tiny cache. Very well hidden. Tricky to get out. But made it more fun. There was no creepy crawlies in this location. Definately one of my favourites. TFTC

Great hide took a few visits and a clue from a friend to find this one TFTC thank god for multi tools

Even with the info centre shut, this game is giving me some of the highlights of Muswellbrook I spotted this one straight away, but extracting it was a tad more challenging, and success was soon mine TFTC Nudge74

Checked cache today still in plenty of room in log
 
05-Oct-14
TFTC, this cache is a good example of why I need to bring my entire cache kit with me. A great hide and location.

We spent this lovely Spring friday on a caching trip out to Burning Mountain and back to home. We found 12 caches for the day.

We bought lunch nearby and parked in the church's carpark before begining the search for the cache. The GPSr kept wanting us to search in the trees but the hint appeared to indicate else where. We searched all about but came up empty handed before resorting to reading past logs. Luckily Mr C is rather tall and could see the container from outside the fence and after cleaning away the cobwebs we soon had the cache in hand.

we walked from the station to here the back wayRed Face much to the girls disgust [:x] and in through the church grounds, interesting place. we found a few graves from former priests too in the courtyard.
back to finding the cache, we did that fairly fast when we arrived at GZ but getting it proved a bit harder, first the many many muggles using the area, then the difficulty getting the cache. ratdog climbed up and still no luck but we persevered and with the help of a tool or 2 from my caching bag we soon had the log to sign.

oooooooooo the hill Mum made us walk up to this one, we came the back way from the park near the railway station. then we walked through the church ground to this cache. It didn't really want to leave its hide hole but we made it with the tweezers. always a good idea to bring a bag with a pen and some tool we have learnt.

TFTC this is a great place for a cache

Hooray for multotools

Had to get some pliers out... But knew it was what we were looking for.
 
18-Jul-14
Cache was gone, but now replaced.
 
10-Jul-14
This hasn't been found since March and lots of DNFs as well. Please confirm if it is there or replace, or archive. Cheers.
 
10-Jul-14
I hate it when caches are not maintained by their CO's. 2 in a row! Please check.
 
30-Jun-14
2nd attempt at this cache and no luck again... fingers crossed we have better luck next time.
 
05-Jun-14
DNF at 4:02 PM. Second in a row! Nothing could be found.
 
10-May-14
Found several likely spots but no cache

Visiting from South Africa and found this while visiting my brother. Had to be careful as there were quite a number of kids playing around in the area.

My 3rd international cache.

Another one where the tree cover had the GPS going around in circles.
Eventually made a decision to ignore the GPS and go with logic and soon enough I had the CIH.

Out for a drive today with Bad Jedi and his wife and this was one of the caches we found.
After finding Dingo Gate Lookout we are looking for a couple of caches on the way home.
After stopping here the gpsr had us 5 meters down the street but that did not look right and did not match the cache name. Looking a bit closer the correct place was soon found and a new blank log was found signed and replaced as found.
Thanks for this cache Nudge74.

I couldn't find this geocache, maybe I'll have better luck next time!
 
21-Sep-13
I had to go away and come back to this one. First time I went there I was looking in the trees and had no luck. Then I read some of the past comments after I'd been for a massage (this is hard work and at the Loxton House cache I saw the masssge place). They helped allot and it took me moments to find it on my return. Co-ordinates first time were about 6m off for me. I.e. not in a trer
 
07-Sep-13
Noticed 3 people after us couldnt find it. Just checked and cache is still in its place. Took us a long time to find first time as well due to the trees but is definitely in the area.
 
28-Jul-13
Couldn't find it with Evil-1 phelpsy01 and billdary
 
28-Jul-13
Quick find. In quite clear view. Tucked away a bit better. Gps moved around because of trees. TFTC.
 
28-Jul-13
looked and looked and even looked some more with Evil-1, Commando283 and Phelpsy01
Either its Muggled or its moved.

after a really good search with Commando283, BillDary and Phelpsy01, could not find, found a likely site where it should have been and signs of possible cache remnants, several metres from GPS coordinates though.
 
01-Jul-13
Had to wait until there were no muggles going by. A lovely church. TFTC

Found on fence, probably not it's original hide, SL, TNLN Wink, TFTC Smile

The holiday is coming to an end, we are heading south so after camping at Mussellbrook and picking up a few more caches on our way home. This was the first for the morning and after parking the camper we went for a walk. We had no trouble locating this cache and adding our name to the log, while we were doing this a muggle pulled up in his car to talk on his phone. With no chance of returning it while he was there we went off for a closer inspection of the church and after about 15 minutes he finally left, we were able to return the cache.
Thanks Nudge 74 for showing us this area.

Everyone was in the service this morning so it was a quick find.

*FTF*

Well, after getting our 100th cache, we went from St Albans Parish Hall to this cache. Without knowing that this cache hadn't been found yet, I quickly got out in the rain and after looking at the hint, quickly had CIH.
The rubber seal wasn't in properly and I took some time to try and fix it but honestly couldn't. I'll put it down as a needs maintenance.
SL.
TFTC!
