Look's like the July storms and floods washed this one away.

Will check it out over the next coming weeks.

No luck, can the CO confirm it is there please

Had a good look, although a bit hard for us seniors with less flexible bodies and bad knees.

No joy today...

Having a hit and miss day today. Another DNF

This troll eluded us! Uhhh!! Our day hasn't been good

Found with geo teen and geo toddler

today was mission impossible 1 - lipt series.

i set out to do all lipt caches in order. took from 9am to 5pm
drove and walk to all of them
some tricky ones and some easy ones

thanks for the caches

nearly food time tummy grumbles

thanks for the hide lucky i have long arms

Luckily the tide was out which made for a great find, once I was on the correct side. TFTC!!!

Great hide, thanks.

Ruined another pair of jeans lol, Tftc

Was just about to give up, then there it was!

Beautiful!
TFTC

OK, so TWO in one day, or should I say OUR FIRST Day! We may have started something here ... : )
The cache was 'easy' to find once you thought about what you are looking for. Lots of trinkets. Nice family cache! Has anyone taken Nemo swimming, yet? TFTC wiifm

TFTC. Quick easy find, and another trackable for me to take to Melbourne for a holiday

On the hunt with mistysoho and seaker200 TFTC

Another great spot for a cache, loved finding it. TFTC

Should have been a quick find but for some bizarre reason I had pursuaded myself it wasnt near the obvious object. It was. Very nice spot here with amazing views across the lake. Left two TBs. TFTC!

Got it. Another nice spot on the lake, there are so many spots around the lake that I didn't know about. Great views across to Yallah. TFTC

Smashed through the Eastern and Northern sides of Lake Illawarra today.

GPSr had me on wrong side to start with.
With a bit of patience and searching I got to the cache!

Lovely size container, thanks

After a short drive from number thirteen I arrived here. There was no one around, which let me do ridiculously unnecessary things during my searching, like getting my feet wet. Eventually I SAW the cache in the fourth and last place it could be, before realising how simple it was and haw hard I made it. Oh well. Signed the cache and moved on.
Thanks for showing me more bridges (I love bridges)!

Reperio at 1640.

Came down from Newcastle this morning ahead of the 10K Milestone event for The Rats this weekend, and today I had the chance to do a few Illawarra caches. Today I didn't have the pleasure of a bike, so I parked nearby and soon had the cache in hand. Enjoyed this series today.

Gratias h.j.smith.

Not Found. [Time to Find: 15 min]

Geokid 2 always likes an ammo tin!! Nicely stocked cache. Left a pathtag. TFTC.

Found with the Newberys on a great day out caching. TFTC TNLN SL

Ahh, an ammo can. Love this little board walk area, thanks for bringing the WEEO and myself here. TFTC

Quite big, found it

Funky box, easy 2 find

Diving and Events at South Coast Feb 2014. After a great time at the even, ZZ7, Sol de Lune and I headed off to try for as many of the LIPT caches as time would allow. Two DNFs but plenty of finds, and many more to do on other trips. A bonus caches along the way. Thanks.

Great cache in a lovely spot! (Took some finding though!!!)

TFTC h.j.smith

With clues, coordinates, suitable tide and strategies to avoid a wandering muggle thought I had the spot. However i was unsuccessful today.
Will try again another time.

Best cache i have found yet HEAPS of swaps anyone with children do this one

Once I was looking ok the correct side it was an instant find as it wasn't pushed as far back as it should be

Our 8197th overall find.

Found with FarmerFrentzen on our Christmas break caching trip. A short walk down here to the GZ today. The nearby house owner sure keeps the area tidy. It took us a while to locate the right side but FF eventually came up with the cache.

Thanks h.j.smith for the cache.

Found during a run down to Wollongong with Big Matt and Shell.

It had been a little while since we had cached Wollongong and with the publishing of the LIPT we decided it was time to make another trip down south. The weather was near perfect and a very enjoyable day was had making our way around Lake Illawarra and surrounding areas.

Nice to find a real cache container!

Thanks h.j.smith for the cache.

The second last find on a short sweep around the south eastern part of the lake. TFTC

tftc [D:]

hard to use the facebook A friend to find this one really good to see an ammo can used here

Our seventh ILPT cache. TFTC. Dropped off the biggest TB ever!!

Great cache for find no.3 of the day

Quick find with lots of swaps for the geo-kiddies! TFTC

Another really pleasant spot. Dropped off TB. Lots of really cool swaps. TFTC

Found with paulyman. We were originally looking on the wrong side, but soon made the find. A nice spot, it's a shame it's all overgrown and neglected. Left our travel bug car racers and an army man.

Quick find with snorris. Dropped off our travel bug racers to begin their race. Thanks.

Nope I couldn't find anything.

No luck after the Event. May be back

Another great find while touring around from cache to cache.

Unfortunately quite a wet day but found some good caches between showers.
Good cache container and contents
SL TFTC

The Geo wife was chauffeuring me down to Albion Park so I decided to do a couple of caches on the way. The geo wife located and retrieved this one due to my knee limitation atm.
A nice sized cache with heaps of goodies. TN Left a couple of small clothes pegs. SL. TFTC h.j.smith

Took blank cd (no idea what's on it)
Left a couple of critters.

Found with bloss

Of cause it was in the last place I looked, grrrr. Good to see an ammo can in the wild.

Another day and another cache in my streak. Its day 64 and this equals my best streak.
Heading home from work I was a bit pressed for time so I'd left a nearby cache for such an occasion. Parking nearby I didnt even realise this pathway existed.

Once at GZ I soon had my hands on the cache and it was a pleasure to see an ammo can full of goodies. Signed the log and was on my way.
Thanks H.J

Early morning find so no muggles about, checked the wrong side of the structure at first but soon found the nice sized cache, an ammo can no less, favourite point from us for a well thought out cache & great hide, thanks h.j.smith.
TNLN,SL TFTC,
Cheers from CATONY.

A bit of a search, but got it eventually. Heaps of mozzies today. TNLN as geokids were trying to be quick. TFTC h.j.smith

Found with Katsumar on the last day of the Scouts Geocaching Competition. We took a trip around Lake Illawarra by Car, Skateboard and Scooter.

Great to find a nice big cache and a "traditional" container. We took a Scout badge and left a couple of bits and pieces.

Found on a big cache trail around Lake Illawarra with Nicksmyname on the last day of the Scouts Australia Geocaching competition.
More log details to follow, but have to log this tonight.
Thanks, h.j.smith!

Quick find. SL TFTC!

Found with Toadmiester7, Tadpole7, Xephos, H.J.Smith, Benzo Latte and WoodyFigtree as PArt of a Scout Patrol Activity.
TFTC

Nice big cache with heaps of swaps. Left a TB

Tadpole7 organised an attempt on the LIPT by bike as her Patrol Activity and with some other 1st Keiraville scouts we headed out. It was decided that a clockwise attempt starting at 1 would be the go. Arrived at GZ with Tadpole7, Ace7, Benzo Latte, HJ Smith, Xephos, Woody figtree and myself. Found the cache safely hidden and thanks HJ Smith for your cache. (even though you were with us)

Came out on the bike with Tadpole7, Ace7, HJSmith, Benzo Latte, Xenphos and Toadmeister7 to do a lap of the lake to get the series. With 7 sets of eyes looking we made short work of finding the cache. Thanks to the owner and the ICC for putting the series together.

Found with figtree rovers !

big night out with the rovers nearly took.a swim but crisis averted cheers for the hide

Easy find tftc

Caching with the Rovers. Easy find!

It's really great to find a contaner like this again.
The benchmark of cache containers seem to becoming nothing more than a Macca's cup in the gutter.
Many thanks for the cache h.j.smith.

Tftc. Nice container hj. A bit cold this afternoon but day #22 cleared

Love these containers, and fully stocked as well.

Poor Hoojar has been berated for years for failing to find a container of such size but try as I might last time I had no success. This morning, with my needle pointing up to 8m away I made a pretty easy find- I just concentrated on one area last time which was my downfall! Anyway, nice to see such a container on the powertrail. TFTC!

Easy to find, nice well stocked cache. Great time of afternoon with the light just right. Steeba will kick himself when he finds this!

Cheers

Failing the first time after reports of muggling issues, this second attempt was also done half heartedly seeing the last log was a dnf by an experienced cacher. Just about to give up again when I widened the search away from gz and spotted a suspect container I just couldn’t reach to confirm unless I was an orang-utan! Thankful area was muggle free, improvised with some retrieval tools found nearby and happily signed the log.

Search as I might this morning I failed to come up with the goods. Perhaps I need to venture there in more appropriate clothes and get right in but I even took a shoe off this morning .

Restocked cache with logbook and some kid friendly stuff. Ready to go again. Thanks to those who added a piece of paper.

The description was more help than my iPad here. Left a few goodies-shame to see a cache with such potential devoid of booty. TFTC.

It's so windy, seen a wind surfer in the lake, he must be nuts, his flying. Hunt soon came to an end, opened and it was e pty with a piece of paper in it. Added a better piece. TFTC

Great container, a bit surprised that someone would take the contents and leave it behind??? Enjoying a cache hunt with friends as we made our way around Lake Illawarra. What a great location to host this series, great idea ICC. I particularly liked the variation in the cache hides and containers. It was extremely windy today and there were some windsurfers and kite boarders screaming across the water. Signed piece of paper..TFTC

Travelled today with Baja.15 and J&J.au in order to locate a few in this new series around the lake. What a beautiful location, but I was not so sure about the weather as it could have easily blown the logs away today. Loved the surprises along the way and the thought that everyone has put into their caches, thankyou, it is a bit sad that someone had already muggled this one though!

Published

Found cache but had nothing but I piece of paper with two logs on it. One of the logs said that it was empty when he/she found it...?

No log book so we left our sticker (with backing still on) in the container...

TFTC D

Found the cache but it was empty. Was well hidden and as described, but when I opened it was completely empty. I left a scrap of paper with details on it as that was all I had with me. Will contact CO.

Looks like it has been muggled before being published. I had the usual goodies in it and a logbook. For now the piece of paper will have to do as i can't replace it till Wednesday at the earliest. Thanks to whoever placed the paper there.

Found the cache with just a little piece of paper, signed with no name. Only found out who wrote it as I met the cacher a few minutes later!
