By K_Wolf -- adopted by 4bait on 12-Feb-13. Waypoint GC45W2Q

Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to repair this in the near future and it gets very few finds now so time to clear the spot for someone else

Sadly not today, did not find at 10:23 am
Out for an early mornings geocaching, traveled from Croydon specifically to redress a few old DNF's that have been bugging me.
Found cache base but container has departed and gone to the depths....

Container has come adrift from its base component and you know well where it is going to be

Couldn't find it

Good spot

We went out this morning to grab some caches in the area while we had a bit of time.
This one was interesting, as there were a few exercisers already here, but they were mainly keeping to themselves.
A stealthy search had to still be upheld, and it took quite a while before something came unstuck and we had our cache!
Thanks for placing this here.

TFTC, Brainiac03

Possibly found but couldn't see anything possibly dropped or muggled?

Unsure if still here? May have been in the right spot? Looked for this several times

Very clever hide. Almost thought it had been muggled.

A quick find in a popular neighbourhood park .. after reading a few recent logs I was unsure of what I would find however the cache is in good condition .. no ants! Thank you to K_Wolf for creating and placing the cache and to 4bait for maintaining it.

Started getting too cold waiting for all the muggles to disappear. Will try again another day.

2nd time having a look need log book had to fix it container.

After some searching I found the ant infested cache.. now my fingers smell all weird. Thanks for the find!

Yay!!! So happy to turn this sad face into a smiley! After a bit of playing around we got cracking on to finding the cache. Searched all the usual hides with not luck.. read a few comments and a picture pointed us in the right direction. Shortly after found the cache and signed the log. Returned where found. TFTC

Found this morning with no-one around. Accurate coords certainly helped. Needed a TOTT to make the extraction. A popular spot with the ants. In good condition.

Very tricky find but got there in the end

So close to giving up on this one...very clever

Great hide. Sat for a while. Tried a few things and finally came across it. Luckily no muggles today. TFTC

Looked for ages and can’t find anything... mugged maybe?

Very clever spot!! TFTC

Great

So clever loved it

TFTC Great camo!

Found it. Very clever hide.

Did not find the cache swear it has been stolen

Find #4460

With some souvenirs to collect for the hidden creatures over the next week I arranged an evening of caching with SirJ-Oz and LouiseAnn. I had some time to spare beforehand so after a work site visit I headed past this one to take a look. I was worried these might be muggles around but perhaps the windy weather kept them away and I was free to search. Spotted a target on approach and fortunately it turned out to be right. Quickly retrieved and I soon had the log in hand. Managed to replace it too before some muggles came wandering down the path so I was able to give them a cheery wave and head off back to the car. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache K_Wolf and to 4bait for keeping it going.

Great spot to stop. Kids nailed it!

Make sure you look at the instructions carefully

About to give up, thought we would give it one last try with a bit more muscle. Replaced carefully, this cache should have a height recommendation as well as age for the equipment!!

Luckily there were no Muggles playing in their playground when we arrived today. Yes you are exposed to people there. I surmised correctly where the cache was fairly quickly. I had to go to the car to get the right TOTT to release it. The Evil Muggle insisted he com along to wield the tools. I can use them! Anyway it got him out of the car! Cache was found in good condition and replaced as found without too many Muggles in the distance coming to see what we were up to. Excellent range of play equipment and we even tried one or two before leaving. I wish we had some of these in our locality. TFTC

Hardest one to find yet! Log is just a small scrap of paper.

We finally found it and only by accident! That was a great and tricky spot.

Very clever!

Luckily the family using the various pieces of equipment needed to leave in search of water. The cleverly concealed cache was soon in hand and our name added to the log.

Thanks 4bait for adopting this cache for everyone's enjoyment.

Found as Nicnax with PapaGrouch. This was a quick find in the middle of the afternoon, no-one was about so the find was easy. We checked out all the equipment, very impressive setup. The locals are lucky to have this available to them. TFTC

Was a very smart spot. Not much room on the log book left

Good hide

This was my second visit, the first time the machines were occupied, but this time on a Tuesday morning it was vacant. An easy find, once I read the page properly.

Tough spot, not easy to get to

Finally found it. Hunting with NickLama, saw him try where the cache actually was. Trusted his judgement. After 30 mins of searching I found it. Lesson learnt, trust your own judgement

Not a Muggle in sight so I had a uninterrupted search, found it retrieved it signed the
temporary log and replaced it. Thanks FTC.

Such a tricky one. We will be back another day.

Owner please note. Cache is still here but there was no log. It's obviously been stolen. We put our names on a small piece of paper and left. Nice hide

Can't find. Log missing

Well we found it straight away but still very sneaky lol although some muggle has taken the log book out

R

Nice hide, second attempt at this one but this time no muggles. up above the flood level TFTC

Find 1165
A fantastic idea for a healthy type park for grown ups. The cache was found without problem and not a muggle in sight. Log signed and all back safe again.
Now time for a little play.
Thanks for placing a cache here 4bait.

XD

Didn't expect that many exercise equipment, but does look like one of our local playgrounds.
Nice easy find in the second place I looked, and certainly made it an easier find at 5am in the morning, while very cold and dark.
Thanks for the cache K_Wolf & 4bait

Fantastic idea to get people out and exercising. I wish they had one of these in my area. Quick and easy find. TFTC

Don't listen to Tally Tiger, when she says that I'm a gym nut, I might go several times a week, but still... That's not nutty right?

We had had a blast hanging out around here, trying all the "toys" and Zedaycee wandered off to do the cache, because, truth be told, Tally Tiger is a bigger gym but than me!

Quick and easy cache found by Zedaycee as Angelique Anja and were busy playing with the grown up toys. Thanks for bringing us here.
With Zedaycee and Angelique Anja.

Grown up cache in grown up playground. Had to go on tippy toes, because I'm not grown up enough. TFTC 4bait.

Lovely morning for a wander and read all the signs on how to work out, such a shame the seats were all wet LOL - Alot of friends on patrol so i didn't stay long. Thankyou for the clever hide.

A quick easy find here, although the cache guardians didn't like being disturbed, but we managed to give them the brushoff.

Thanks 4bait for the cache.

Thanks for the cache 4bait.

**Giving this one a fav. Great hide and idea. Do this one early in the morning, its muggle free. Thanks for bringing us to this spot. Will come back and do a work-out sometime. Great park and equipment.Cheers**

Watchout for the muggles, might be better to do this one in the dead of the night... would hate to see this one go walking... great hiding spot tftc

Ventured out this way today with K from Papillon4506.
Wandered over to find a dad and a couple of youngsters "playing" on the equipment.
Quickly inspected and knew what needed to be done. So with eyes on the muggles, I chose a perfect time to retrieve the cache, so we could go sit to sign. Put it back the same way.
Very clever.

Finally got the chance to go back today and find this with OzHockeyChick. There were a couple of muggle kids playing on the equipment which made our searching quite difficult. OzHockeyChick found this and retrieved it without any fuss and we signed and returned it. Thanks for keeping this cache going and thus allowing us to un DNF it.

Out doing a maintenance run and looking for some newly adopted caches that we have taken over. I did not place it and had not found it before today so Im logging it as a find. Cache has been cleaned up and is in good condition ready to go

Found some time ago when we replaced as 4bait adopted it TFTC

The Grown-ups Playground was transferred from casey.cachers to user 4bait

Too many muggles around. Will try and find this later!

Caching day with whitepaws9
No muggles there today
Found it
Thanks casey.cachers

Found with my family - becca85, boo09 & chan02 as well as GemmaSistma & boys on a roadtrip for the school holidays. Sorry for the very tardy logging. TFTC

Found during our super fun roadtrip to Phillip Island with my Team Clarmensma family - becca85, GemmaSistema, neisha07, Adam & Lukey. We found lots of caches and saw lots of different animals- including a penguin in the wild! TFTC!

School holiday time once again which means Team Clarmensma is formed (myself+GemmaSistema+neisha07+boo09+Adam+Luke) and one lucky destination gets to host us.
This time it was Phillip Island and decided to make a 3 day road-trip of it.
The weather treated us fairly well and we enjoyed the many beautiful views and landscapes that we were taken to before caching our way home on day 3. TFTC!

In Philip Island for a few days of caching with becca85 and our geokids - Adam, Luke, neisha07 and boo09. Today was our day and we wanted a few more canes on the way home so we detoured to nab some hopefully easier ones. A tougher find here whilst the kids "exercised"! Many thanks

After previous logs we started digging around in a spot but I thought no this can't be right, so checked a different item and made a nice find.
Well set up and thankfully as were we approaching the family who were here before us decided to leave.
Thanks for the cache, Stinky Bob had fun utilising the equipment.

took a while to find but found it in the end . i had a fun time caching to day with kmannz. TFTC

I can't believe it!!!!! When we were about to give up, dug a little deeper and........ cache in hand. One of the more difficult ones. I'm really stubborn

Tftc

F

Finally found it #TEAMWHAT

Woohoo Found It #TeamWhat

This is the second time we've been here and still can't find it, we are new to this Can anyone give us a hint that will help us, as we really want to find this cache We have been down on our hands and knees looking under everything, please help us

TFTC

No luck, no idea where or what we're looking for

Well that had us stumped! Should have trusted our instincts first off and wouldn't have been looking weird at 10.30pm. Excellent hide. TFTC

TFTC K_Wolf. Stick to your instincts and first assessment and you shall be rewarded. Nice strong magnet!. Jimmytherat with Noelle04.

Found this in the 1st place we looked but on the 2nd try. Checked out equipment & tried to look like we were exercising while waiting
For teenage Muggles to move on. Luckily they finally left & Jimmytherat went back to our 1st thought bingo great hide & well constructed. TFTC K. Wolf

This hide was one of the 1st we tried. Such an interesting spot which really would have driven straight pass. We have been there a few times inbetween. We even bought a special tool to look in different places. Then out of no where l had an idea and reread the page. OMG .... l think I've got it. In the last 2 days we have visited 4 times. Each time its been used. Finally this morning the boys begged to go back again . Hurry ... no one in sight. The boys couldn't care less about how quickly l had discovered it, they were too busy getting physical. A really great hide which had me thinking but these are the ones l love. Thank you for a really good one.

Mit herbie112 mal wieder hier. Männer! Danke für diesen Cache sagt sph1

TFTC - Much brute force required.

Nice hide compass was a bit out

Nice one yes it's still here

Found it need to price it with a knife pls the next one to find it gently put it back and yes the cache is still there

I think this one may have been removed.

Didn't find, but I've now got a free gym to go to, thanks!!

Trotz Hinweis vom Owner nicht gefunden. Mit sph1 oft besucht, leider nichts erreicht. herbie112 sagt Danke

Auch nach intensiver Suche mit herbie112 leider nicht gefunden. Danke sagt sph1

Didn't find, spent nearly 45 mins attempting to pull things apart without being classed as vandals, perhaps some more hints would suffice?

No luck for us here today. Maybe next time.
