09-Sep-24
Luckily Scaphoid was paying attention as I had no idea there was another cache here & that we had parked so close to it! I was too focused on the nearby puzzle! We had already got back to the cars when she suggested we do it, of course! A quick walk through the bush, being careful not to slip off the rock on our way. It wasnt long before we had arrived and the cache was quickly found! TFTC

Being relatively new to caching there is a lot that Im discovering and enjoying. One of those things that is a new discovery is caching trips. Loci612 and I had discussed a trip to Sydney for a specific event, unfortunately, I couldnt make the event but I was still able to enjoy a good few days of caching with friends.Day 3 focused on the drive home, I wanted to be home for dinner while making sure that we still targeted some awesome caches on the way home.After finding the nearby puzzle cache we decided to drop by this one before we left. It ended up being a lovely area and a relatively quick find. Thankfully no slips in on the muddy and slippery surrounds! TFTC!

I was in the area surveying more of the shire and decided to wander along the waters edge to find this one while I was here. This was a lovely area to visit and I will have to come back with my kayak when I have some spare time to explore further.Thanks for find #6294TNLN

I've fallen behind on my logs! Needing a cache for my streak and wanting a change of scenery, I popped over here to get some time in nature and hopefully a cache too. I had to park down the street as the carpark was full but it was a nice easy stroll to the trail and GZ. I came from the waterside and when my phone buzzed to let me know I was close, I turned and spotted the cache. Thanks for the smiley and for bringing me to this lovely piece of nature

Out for a stroll down the fire trail, I thought I would give this nearby one a go. Once at gz there were so many spots the hide could be but I came up lucky and found it in the 3rd spot I checked tftc

Nice small walk and easy find

No luck today.
We poked in every spot we could find, but the cache eluded us. Maybe another time.
TFTC!

Saw a beautiful bowerbird's nest and a kingfisher on the way to the GZ but wasn't able to see the cache. Widened the search but decided to call it a day once we ran out of options.

20-Apr-17
It was a beautiful afternoon on the river so after visiting another nearby cache I took the very short walk to GZ, where the cache could easily be seen, though hiding as expected. I logged and returned the cache with some small amount of cover. Thanks deemacvee for a good hide in a great location.

12/2/17. 9:23 AM. Cache #4752.
3rd of 4 finds (& 1 DNF) - Woronora, Barden Ridge

I continued here from "The Price's Right" and found a spot on Park St (though I think they're meant to be reserved for tennis players). I checked a few past logs to make sure this one doesn't have to be approached by kayak... no, looks okay.

Then I headed over to GZ; the hint was the same as the last cache, but there were a few less examples around here, so I didn't take quite as long to find it. Took the TB to move along. I went for one more find this morning, a park and grab at "Palacerock AU". TFTC.

#4,484

After finding three caches on the river and getting our kayaks loaded back on the cars, we decided this park was a good spot for lunch. Alnic looked at his GPS, and said there was a cache nearby. Of course we walked over to find it after lunch.

We took a path almost all the way to GZ. Canary had found it previously and said we had it much easier than him, as he had come in from another direction and had no easy path to follow.

We started looking, and I spotted the hide. Just as started saying 'found it', bikerbuddy called out the same thing. So we're claiming a joint find on this one

Thanks Smile

We found this cache after finding three caches along the river. We had lunch in the park across the bridge and then walked over to find this cache. I found a tennis ball on the way to the cache. I decided to keep it because it was brand new.

The cache was an easy find. Toriaz and I spotted it at the same time, although I think Alnic39 doubted my claim. His doubt may have something to do with the fact that Canary and Toriaz had found our first three caches, and I'd told him that custom dictated a non-finder loses their pants at the end of the day. Perhaps my enthusiasm for this find convinced him I was telling the truth about the ritual and not the find. He is seeing through me so quickly!

Thanks

TFTC! Think about BYOP to assist in signing the log. Definitely a slippery rock. Have fallen on the bottom many times here before.

Night time hunt with success! After looking close to the water and almost slipping a few times it was closer to the path then expected.

Great find

I walked on from King Tide 2 following the river down to the RSL club then crossed the park to the footbridge. Walked over and up via the tennis court - the long way - to get to GZ and look at everything. From the logs it sounded like it was hidden very well and I searched near the water's edge for too long before going higher and then spotting the cache in plain sight in the object mentioned in the hint. Signed the log - there are a few muggle logs recently which may explain the exposure - and then put it back within one metre of where I found it but now out of sight. Hope it's okay.

Thanks!

Went today with camofreak1 to find this good cache. With the new amazing Garmin E-trex 20 GPS I got it wasn't long until we found it (literally 1 min). Finally the cache is in good perfect condition.
TFTC deemacvee for this wonderful quick cache cache.

We spent way, way too long searching for this one! I must of checked the spot it was hidden in no less then ten times, and only when we were just about to call it quits did I spot it! And that was only because I came from a different angle! Camouflaged excellently, made sure to replace just as well! Nice spot as well, thanks for this one! (and all of your wonderful caches demacvee [^])

Quiet. No muggles. Ducks passing by probably thought i was strange. Almost gave up on this one after searching high and low, digging and lifting. Checked some logs and went back to where I had looked earlier. Don't know how I missed it before! Then lifto and presto! There it was. Took a shoe horn and left a lock. Another place I regularly cycle by! Watch the edge if you come by water. TFTC. #18. Second one for the morning.

TFTC,
Requiring 5 caches, I set out today to make sure I reach 900 found caches in this calender year. Half as many again as last year.
Visited a group of trackables.

After having a picnic lunch by the river, walked over to find this one, while checking which hidey hole, lifted something and there it was. TFTC

A challenging area to make a search. But, I eventually spotted it!

#1168 (2 of 9 today)

Back in the Shire today, and grabbed some caches both before and after visiting friends.
By the end of the day, I had two new D/T combinations, including my first 5/5 cache.
[center]* * * END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION * * *[/center]
On the way back from As-tu vu le ramoneur? thought this would be a quick find. Some muggles near GZ were leaving, meaning I had the search area to myself.

The first spot I checked looked promising, but nothing. Then hunted around for another 15 minutes until I came back to that first spot and saw what I'd missed the first time - strange when you're expecting one type of camo, and then you miss something that you're familiar with, becuase you're not looking for it.

Completed signing duties and away - the 5/5 awaits...

I was Way Down Upon the Wonny River today and thought I would have a crack at this one. Found in around 2 minutes. I was a bit worried about the slippery rock, however I came by land, not by sea so all good Smile. Visited a TB and geocoin. TN Left a small peg with a lady bird and a couple of craft items, SL.
