TFTC. I’ve been having geocache withdrawals as I fractured my patella 3 months ago and haven’t been able to get out. Today I went to a party at Speers Point. So stopped and found this cache. Love old mi I g relics.
We found this one a long time ago... before the app but didn’t log!! Hope it’s still there, might go check out to see soon.
What an interesting location. Nice camo too, though the lid has come loose. Thanks for the cache TeamSenz.
It was interesting to learn the history of the head frame and its movements over the years.
It's a nice setup here, thanks TeamSenz.

Found in the way to a CITO event in speers point. Underneath gc there is a bit of a best with maggots and bugs, outside of cache is wet and muddy due to recent rain but inside of cache dry and Log is dry. Tftc
This was a good cache to find after working at westy no 2 for 28 yrs. Brought back memories.TFTC
Quick stop as we’re passing through. Lovely day. Cache in good condition. Bit of an ants nest now but inside container is good TFTCSL
Great hide. This is our 7th for today. Great camo job. The spot was a little over run with green ants. But cache in good condition. Thanks for the adventure.
A quick find for geogirl tonight just before the rain started, logbook signed and RAF. Great camo!

15,682. Found during the OZGeomuster 2018 with minniek and Family.
Mega Day 4 - After attending the nearby CITO we were heading to the final event but couldn't resist another couple of Trads along the way. I remember the original cache here, and was amused to see this new one in exactly the same spot ! Signed the log, replaced the cache, and headed off to the next one.
Thanks to all of the COs for their caches !!

Headed up to the OZGeomuster Mega from Goulburn. Last day for us.....Day 4. All caches quickly found today unless otherwise mentioned. Signed log as MFF for myself, fitzy_1965 and the geokids (B0tmun, Lovetherabbitohs, DeathKiller & my_name_jeff_1).
Picked up this one before heading to the nearby event.

Found with Zobo04 and Alansee We signed the log as GAZ . We had lots of fun exploring the area. Thanks for the fun and all the effort gone into placing them for us to find. TFTC ants have made a home here. This is probably one of the better caches we found today. However it does need some TLC.
Day 4 of our trip Nice spot for a cache thanks for the cacheb TeamSenz
With Zedaycee and Angelique Anja.

Found it! . We replaced the log bag and placed a new pencil. Also placed a bicycle TB... TFTC!
Called in while out riding today. The camo needs a lot of love. It’s been out there a long time now and has rotted. Thanks
At first I thought we had to access the Mine Rescue centre, which was all locked up for the public holiday. Kept driving and realised we didn't! We're just tourists... having a looksee!
Explained to the Geokids what the headframe was about and had a bit of look - history lesson for Australia Day! Then honed in on GZ for a relatively easy find, but great camo from the muggles. Made 1 swap and left a TB. T4TC.
WARNING: Use mozzie spray before leaving car... not when you return!

Yay find #300 since I started a few years ago. Found with AKBNAE such a good location for my 300th find. Love the history. TFTC nh. Log bag needs replacing and looks like a ants nest at gz.
Was staying with friends who live nearby, this was our second find on the way to brunch. Nice bit of history and a nice hide.

QAEPAG for a night cache. Interesting structure to hide a greatly camouflaged cache. TFTC TeamSenz!
A change of plan led us this way, We had some solved puzzle and some other caches in our sights.
So many unfound caches with so little time restricting us to 1 day scramble. Lot of walking, only a couple of DNF. But a fun day in company with Wilbert67.
Thanks to all the CO for placing these caches. We will be back.

A long day of caching around Lake MacQuarie today. Solved a lot of puzzles in the preparation and teamed up with J+J.AU. Great weather and lots of fun. Thanks to all the CO for putting out the caches!

On a cache run with phlphotos and JJCC and we targeted some archived caches on our visit...so we went for GC1RC1Z Westy Headframe as it wasn't clear if the cache container had been removed from its location and there was also a found log after the archive log...and we found the original cache container from GC1RC1Z. On close inspection of the logbook we noticed more recent log entries. Consulting nearby caches we then noticed that the original cache had been archived, only to be reinstated as a premium cache, same coordinates, same cache container, but with a new log.
With the cache in hand, we all signed the log before replacing as found. Both the log and container are in good condition.
The following TBs came through for the mileage: Bob geoMinion, Dave geoMinion, Evil geoMinion, Jerry geoMinion, Larry geoMinion, Stuart geoMinion, teamMerlin's 7 Deadly Ducks Tag (Lust) & Vanlith The Youngling.
