I'm really not one to give up but we searched for ages in what we were pretty sure was the right spot and had no luck:( I think this one has been pinched! Lovely location on the water though:)
We were pretty determined seeing all the previous dnf's but unfortunately I'll have to confirm that this one is missing!
We spent quite a bit of time searching for this one but unfortunately had to walk away empty handed. Hopefully next time.
Thanks anyways blue_mars

Signed back in to the gc website. Backlogging a majority of finds over the last year. Started my own account and it's time to sync it out. To avoid confusion I wont change the date logged. Send me an email (via profile link) or a message in the message centre (also via profile link) if you have any concerns.

think it might have been muggled cause I feel like I'm looking in the right spot but could be wrong. Looked with kittycakes and spacemanhendrix
TFTC we are travelling in your country from the Blue Mountains of Australia. Thank you for going to the effort of hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and increased our experience.
This was our first find in the LIPT series, our starting point here and a planned finish at the Hooka Creek Park, clever hide, what a wonderful walking trail you have here
Easier than I thought and fitted in quite well with the rest of his 'friends' in the area. Nicely stocked and in great condition. TFTC!!!
Near the end of a very full day - travel from Kempsey to Sydney, Sydney to the ICC Christmas Party - 2015, then back to Sydney.
Nice quick find on the end of a sunset across the waters.
There were NO TBs in this cache tonight.
Found at 8:30pm on 16th December, 2015. TFTC.

Found it, 2nd time.
It was where I'd previously searched with no luck, so it has been recently replaced.
Thanks

On a munzee cap expedition.. switched apps and voila! Previous logs had us starting to give up after a short look.. but determined I rolled my sleeves up and headed in hoping not to find a snappy claw out of sight. It's sad this area doesn't see much use.. thanks for the maintaining the great hide with some great swaps inside, but we were lucky to even bring a pen.. TFTC !

Muggle passing by asked us what we were looking for! I said that Jendid lost her earring (for like the third time!!lol!)
She went looking for it first. But we have been going through a string of DNFs and didn't want to waste any more time so she said: DNF. Then I looked and found it in the first place I put my hand in!
TFTC Muppet95 for keeping this cache alive and a fresh log at a great location

Thanks for the messages Blue_Mars,
This one lives on again.
Hidden at the same Co-ords, the cache is a medium size 'peach container'.
Bring gloves if you wish,
It goes ROCK, CACHE, WOODEN PILLER at the corner.
Good luck!

Muppet95 contacted me and offered to replace this hide. I am unable to maintain this hide anymore, but I'm happy to offer this up for adoption if anyone is keen, or just let it go to archive to release the location for a new hide.

I couldn't find this one either, it's a lovely place to go for a walk though
Not Sure if NationalSteel, Tony, PaegleBoy or myself will post a DNF or Maintenance log,
With 2 previous finders, we can say this one has gone for a walk

Visited with Gill&Tony today, and we were joined soon afterwards by Muppet95 and paegle boy. Paegle boy and I have both found this one before and it is not there anymore.

DNF at 13:15
I searched for a couple of minutes but there didn't seem to be anywhere for a regular container to be hiding. Previous finder NationalSteel confirmed that the container was missing. I'll post a Needs Maintenance log so the CO can check this one out.
Thanks blue_mars for the cache, anyway

We came down from Sydney to spend the weekend camping at Killalea State Park. We have been there several times before, and like the place. On Sunday we dedicated to continue geocaching on our way back to Sydney from Shellharbour to Wollongong. It was not as hot day as yesterday,but still very warm.
We did a few LIPT caches yesterday - and another few today, have to save the remaining for next visit.
Found GZ but no cache, we only found a box with crayons which are typical content for caches.

Good hide but paper full and slightly wet fixed what we could cheekypoet 21 September 2014 6:09PM
TaurusSix waited in the car, we parked at the shops and it was easy for me just to nip across the rad for an easy find
Great place for a cache. the winter sun was amazing. Log and container both wet may need maintenance. TFTC
In town for a late morning meeting, decided to grab a cache or two and drop off a TB. What a beautiful spot on a lovely winter's morning. Thanks for bringing me here and TFTC blue mars!
Reperio at 1715.
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. This was a beautiful spot to visit today, and with the sun sinking down on the horizon, the view across the water was fantastic.
Gratias blue mars.

Quick find in an absolutely stunning spot. Incredible views of the lake and escarpment here. TFTC!
What a fab bit of waters edge. They should put this round the entire lake! It would be cool to see the wake boarders going. TFTC
Found this cache while in the area doing some caching around the Lake.
Nice easy hide.
Thanks blue_mars for the hide.

What better thing to do on a wet afternoon but some caching. A nice one to get. Loved looking around the area. Thanks to blue_mars
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. Thanks.

Thanks for the cache and the series.

The Wakeboarding was brilliant here today, with a few spectators along the way. Luckily that meant no-one was looking at the cache area! Lots of dead toad fish though- including at GZ - sat on one - ouch!
But the cache was an easy find, TFTC blue mars!

Great little caching spot - neatly hidden. Lots of dead fish! Well done to the 2 littlest rug rats!
