Nice park. Sweet hide. Just before departing to Melbourne for the holiday and Christmas break. Going to the Boxing Day test in Melbourne as well, even though its a dead rubber. TFTC.

This park is well known to my muggle companion as it is a favourite of her grandchildren but for me, visiting from QLD it was a new experience - a very nice spot for a cache and it wasn't long before we found it.

Thanks for the cache fraap Smile

A nice park that I haven't been to before. Good tie in with the plaques. Very familiar hide, so found quickly. Nice to see some nicely landscaped streets for a newish suburb.

Thanks.

What a cute park area. I actually wish I had more time to walk around reading all the poems, might be a good place to hide a multi (wink wink) anyway, thanks for bring us here! TFTC!
 
29-Aug-13
2013: 241 Days In A Row - I'm sure we'll be back to find a multi here eventually, or a trip with Fraggles to hide one. Smile A cute spot for a bit of a play and a read. Thanks for the cache!

Whipped over on the bike at 10:15pm and found GZ all clear. Had to halt the search halfway through and switch off my light to avoid attention from 2 passing cars. Found the cache, SL and dropped off a dragon pathtag... TFTC!

found this one on the way home. another park with interesting info - this on a Poet. I am always amazed how many little parks there are around Canberra tftc fraap
 
16-Jul-13
Love the hint, the wording, and the container - and quite pleased that it wasn't icy rain today Smile
 
13-Jul-13
Found on a wet morning up this way. Had been meaning to get this for a while, but it was disabled last time we were out here. Good to see it back in action. Had never been to this park until today, such a nice little park with some interesting history learnt at GZ. So that's why the name of the park came to be. Understood the relation to the park and the hint/name once at GZ, makes perfect sense now. Once there the cache was quickly found - we've seen too many of these. Love them every time however. Great little cache to complete. TFTC fraap!

Great container!
 
11-Jul-13
Awesome container! This one was a good find, with some little red herrings nearby too!

2013-07-07 0097 Nice little park. Had driven past it a number of times but it took a cache to get me out of the car and actually check out the park up close. Great name for a geocache as well. This is the second time I had come across this type of container, so I was not fooled so readily. Thanks fraap!
 
03-Jul-13
Thanks fraap - there were a few extraneous natural items at GZ but after keeping my eye open for muggles and searching vigorously I found it. That's 2 of that sort I've found in the last 2 days.
 
29-Jun-13
Cache replaced with a new natural looking container.
 
10-May-13
Seems someone has removed the cache. We will find a new container and replace ASAP.

My second find in this parkland, in almost this exact spot. Still it's good to come back again.

A beautiful day to be out caching. Picked up 23 northside caches during the morning.
 
25-Apr-13
6401 + 809 = 7210. After todays service it was time for some caching...

I headed northside again today as there are so many new caches up that way. I remember caching here before. A nice quick find at GZ and it was off to the next one.

Thanks fraap !!

TNLN - TFTC !!

Had a lunchtime meeting in the ACT so drove really down early for a bit of caching on the northside. If it wasnt for a lone muggle walking his dog through the park, I could have been excused for thinking that I was the inhabitant of Harrison. A great autumn morning and the old trees in the park are magnificient. Many thanks fraap

After a long week at work I am happy to be out on my Friday afternoon cache run. I might have done a cache here before, but it is still a nice park to stop for a short walk. Thanks.

Haven't been to this park for a few years. Very quiet for Easter Monday which meant a good look and a quick find.

Thanks fraap. Park still looks good.
 
31-Mar-13
Had an Easter Hunt very nearby for the kids yesterday so imagine our extra happiness when we found this little gem was not far from the activity Smile

After the main activity wound down and the kids went back to playing we snuck in and grabbed this one introducing another family to the wonderful world of geocaching as well.

Happy Easter to all!

Was nervous that I would need to chook scratch, but all easy in the end. Thanks frap.

Went for a quick afternoon/evening cache run after feeling a bit sleepy all day Big Grin Began the hunt for this one at dusk. Initially didn't find anything as it was getting dark and the vegetation was obscuring the light even more. Went back to the car to return with my torch where the find was made in seconds Big Grin Love these containers! Thanks fraap Smile

Always nice to re-visit this park not far from my place - a nice easy find although I had to watch out for some mini muggles.

Thanks fraap

#374 - 15:50; After missing out on this cache in failing light a couple of nights ago, decided to make up for it today. After a morning in the garden it was time for some caching. A nice quick find in the daylight and not a muggle in sight, which came as somewhat of a surprise given the numbers wandering by two evenings back. TFTC fraap Smile
 
28-Mar-13
Out today after work buying new cache containers and was near this cache. I thought id drop in and grab it. Was with the geomum who made the find quickly and then we read the information nearby and off home TFTC

mmmm...found this one when it was first published and forgot to log it.

I had been out in the morning doing some caching , quite tired but couldn't resist one more as it was only 2km away from home.
 
24-Mar-13
Easy grab claimed by the geokid as a drive-by to keep Liv81's streak going...nice spot and found on the day it went live behind a stream of other cachers.

TFTC - Fun Big Grin

We had a furry faced client one street away from this hide, so collected on the way to feeding her this afternoon. TFTC fraap
