Kahibah Creek 5 Umina Beach, New South Wales, Australia
By xPhenoms on 26-Feb-13. Waypoint GC46N14

Listing no longer viable

Carried the two geokids on southwards as they decided their legs were broken. Fortunately this was a quick find. I think though that despite being a clever hide in an interesting container it works better in theory than practice. Log very damp. TNLN TFTC

Great spot, log will need replacing as it's very damp

Found it with wolfboylost and was unable to sign log and it was to wet to sign

New log needed as can not sign

Found with casper73

Not very pleasant and pretty grungy overall. Luckily the walk is very pleasant but a lot of this series could do with a spruce up.

TFTC and the Johnny.

Boz scags

Another quick find. Thanks xPhenoms.

Was in the area so tried to find a few in the Kahibah Creek series. Unfortunately this was the only one that I could get as muggles & time prevented more finds. There were just heaps of muggles, kids & parents after school. Shame, looked like a good series. Thanks xPhenoms for the hide.

Good clean area. TFTC

Lovely creek area being seen in this series TFTC

Nice walk! Cache found in very good shape! Double protection for the logbook! Signed and replaced,
Thanks xPhenoms

Easy to find Tftc

A nice quick find TFTC

Lots of mozzies - pack the aerogard!!

We will finish this series today!

Nice hid but full of ants

After getting #0, #1, #2, and #3 of this series, there was a couple playing with their dog in the vicinity of #4 so I didn't look for that cache, I just kept walking. Gives me an excuse to come back anyway

#5 took a bit of finding. At first I heard something moving in the bush, so found a stick and made a noisy entrance into the bush in case it was a snake. After a bit of searching I made my way across to the other side of the creek to where the cache actually was Found the cache, there's a good number of ants living in the 'outer container'. Signed log, TFTC.

It seems the movement in the bush were some birds I don't know the name of (see photoes)

Travelled up the coast with pdbunce and FootyFanatics to avoid the heat in Sydney (topped 41) on a day that was 31 degrees in Umina Beach so we made the right decision by staying close to water. Started at the very
beginning. Excellent series. Really enjoyed the variety of caches and locations.

Found it on a stinking hot Sunday while escaping to the coast with evangt and pdbunce. Sixth find of the series. TFTC

Another quick one.

When I was signing the log I dropped the bottom of the container in the long grass,, it looked like it had gone down a hole in the ground!! Crikey, what now? Luckily I found it and all is well.

Parked nearby and a quick grab. Nice container! Nearly walked straight into a spider web retrieving it but thankfully it was dodged just in time

Doing a couple of night caches before heading back to Sydney tonight . Quick find. TFTC

On my way back to Sydney from attending a wedding I thought I'd do the Kahibah Creek Series. I really enjoyed all the caches and the effort put into them by xPhenoms, thanks for a great series & TFTC

Another one in the series, we parked and walked to both directions to find as many as possible before the rain started.

Nice hide. Quick find TFTC

All good to go

Just after Opa-Bob and I had done the rest of this series, I was looking at my map and wondered what this little green dot was doing in a group of found caches - ahh...the mysterious number 5 has reappeared! And so today it was our mission to collect up this gap in the series - the clue indicated it would be similar to another we located in the series, and it was. Signed the fresh log and tucked it all away again - thanks xPhenoms. Nice to be able to get all the numbers where I thought I wouldn't

When Mumma-Kel and I did this series a few weeks back, I had wondered why there was no number five. Now that it has been unarchived, I know! We headed back to the Creek this morning to made a quick find and so the series is all smiles for me. We had to make a quick detour then before we left to area to #10 for Mumma-Kel to also finish off the series.

As an aside, the cache is still showing up as temporarily disabled ... I have emailed the CO to let him know that it needs to be enabled.

Thanks again for a fun series, xPhenoms.

Unarchiving cache.

New cache container and log placed today

Cache owner is either unwilling or unable to maintain the cache. Cache maintenance includes listing maintenance including updating any changes to the text, updating coordinates, removing needs maintenance attributes and enabling the listing.

I am archiving the listing for the time being. Should the owner decide to maintain the cache in the near future (next 30 days), just contact me (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, I'll be happy to unarchive it.

Found!! Log book a bit damaged, it's only just being held in there by a scrunched up bit of rubbish.
TFTC

Record sheet wash dry. Outer container full of dirt and ants. it is otherwise right to go as cleaned it up. Tftc

Disturbed a few ants, got hands a bit dirty but success onwards to no 6

Good to go

Wow, it has been such a long time since we found this series!

We came down here as a family and it was a stinking hot day!

Thanks for hiding this series.

I didn't know this one had been disabled, as I hadn't reloaded the caches using GSAK for a while. Found it anyway in pretty good order. SL. TFTC.

Maintenance required

Easy find

Met deze reeks had ik meer geluk de vondsten gingen vlot bij enkele soms wat langer moeten zoeken .
De Containers hadden genoeg afwisselen en ook de verstop methoden.
Er waren enkele zeer mooie bij
Bij sommige weken de coords wel enorm af.
Maar daar hield ik rekening mee .
Soms was het wel even zoeken achter het juiste pad

TFTC.

log make in Dutch .

This was an easy enough find in need of some work... Managed to get the log unrolled and allowed it to dry out in the sun but the front is full anyway. Installed a new RITR log and placed the container and original log in a bag. Also inserted a bit of timber in the bottom so it can be placed back correctly and not fill with water. SL TFTC

Quick find. Wet log.

Thanks for the cache xPhenoms.

While on holiday in Central Coast, I decided to grab a few caches. I planned for around 20, and got nearly that many. Unfortunately, I was pressed for time, so there were some DNF's. But there were quite a few good caches, and I had quite a good time caching in Woy Woy.

Log wet. Needs maintenance. Did not write in log as sopping wet.,

enabled

Could not write on log as it was not sealed and was filled with water! TFTC

Cache detached from the lid. Needs to be reattached.

easy find

06 of 11 for this series...
watch out for the black ants at this location.

tftc

The cache was found in the correct position. However, it was very exposed to all and sundry of passing walkers. It was replaced with a decent amount of covering materials in its original location. TFTC, xPhenoms.

We found the camo and container separated. We have seen this hide on the WRHPT!?!

TFTC.

Found 1:11 PM with AuroraEve. TFTC Yes not attached, but placed inside.

TFTC

Cache has come away from the outer container, may need a little TLC.

Thanks

A good walk along the creek. TFTC

Quickly found this one. However the cache container has come away from the outer container. Found the cache at the bottom of where the cache is placed.

TFTC

TFTC

Easy find when we widened our search area.

All going well and another Kahibah creek cache found. SL TFTC

Ready to go

Did this one with other cachers team tonka , team senz and nellc on a day down here from Newcastle was a quick find tftc

Today we came down the coast for a day of caching with TeamTonka, nellc and Djant.

Even though this was disabled we still managed to find it and sign the log. TFTC

Came down to the CC for the day with Team Senz, Nellc, & Djant had a great time finding all the caches in this beautiful location thank you for the excuse to visit this little town that we had never been before and THTC
Altho this cache was disabled we did manage to find it still hiding in its container the bison has come loose but the log was still ver much singable TFTC

10/06/13. 8:40 AM. Seeing a few "Found It" logs after the Disabled, I considered searching for this one, but then Disabled logs aren't meant to be found. Once I got near GZ, it appeared to be too close to someone's front yard, so I decided to give it a miss. I might have reconsidered had I known I'd have a few DNFs after this

We found this one while on a day out with Team Tonka, Team Senz and djant. TFTC

Reperio at 1105.

Headed down to the central coast today for a day of caching, including this series of caches. I continued the walk along the creek to this one, and the cache was found without any problem, although I only realised that it had been disabled when it came time to log it. A nifty little cache hide.

Gratias xPhenoms.

All the parts including the slightly damp log were there so we are claiming this as a find. TFTC.

The cache has become detached from the lid of the container and needs to be reglued. Also the cache itself doesn't seem to be sealing properly as the log is quite damp. TFTC.

Closed for maintenance

Forgot to log my find when I put in my "needs maintenance" entry. Better late than never. TFTC.

Glue in cap has given way. Log damp.

TFTC. Found a few of this good series while camping at Umina, had a couple of family members with us who may end up as cachers!

Found at 11.25am while out and about with xambo4u as we visit Gosford to attend the National Square Dance Convention. We decided to walk this trail and try and collect all the caches. We missed one but the rest were found however we did find that many of the co-ords were out from between 5 to 8m so we had to rely on the hints in some cases. We found some interesting cache containers in a variety of locations but found a trail that was overgrown by various types of weeds which spoiled the walk. A secure way of hiding. TFTC

11.25am Out and about with 80 dredges this morning whilst enjoying a weekend away at the dance convention at Gosford. Having completed the others in the series this was the next along the trail. Nice easy find.
Thanks for the cache xPhenoms

Mid evening stroll with the dog, quite a nice walk along the creek.
TFTC

Found

Took the family for a lovely walk along the creek for Anzac day. Thanks for a great series and showing us a little creek we would not otherwise have explored.

Really enjoying this walk. TFTC.

Nice hide, good use of device used. Stumbled onto this one while using nothing but intuition, as the GPS played up again.

misuse of a container. oh well. TFTC!

The container could have been used in a lot better way, and has the chance of being quite sneaky if properly executed. Oh well still a good hide and spotted a few swamp hens enjoying the little creek.
TFTC and walk

Easy find, TFTC

The container has so much potential never mind it's still a good hide

Lived near this area once
nice to use of walk
TFTC

nice walk along the track
TFTC

easy found and hide well.. Beautiful walk to track all the way...thank

Came down today to do the Kahibah Creek series.
Another quick find . Thanks xPenoms.

Found 9 of the 11 in this series today, making the most of my new premium membership. I did some bush regeneration work along this creek a few years back, it looks as through it could do with a lot more! The cache container had come loose, and it seemed to be in or very close to a green ant nest. Tftc series and the lovely walk!

The weeds have really taken over here, the creek needs a bit of clearing out. I followed the already well marked cachers trail and was soon logged and moving on. Thanks for a good hide.
