Another spectacular lookout! Rassilon256 then showed me the local history (toy museum) and sculpture park nearby. A beautiful spot - doubt I can afford the property though!
During our weekend in the Blue Mountains, we looked for nice places and also for some Geocache. So we come here along and find this Cache. TFTC
Thank you for the cache! I went to the lookout to end my Blue Mountains day - then remembered that theres a cache also. A couple of steps back and found it easily. Sunny day here, greetings from Finland
Cache replaced as before. Should be an easy find.There's a lot of contruction going on at the car park and picnic ground and, at first, I was afraid that the entrance to the Gordon Falls track was blocked. But no. As you drive down the street and approach the fenced-off contstruction site, you'll see a little sign that directs you in behind all the goings-on, behind the contruction area, and this temporary route will take you right to the beginning of the track to GZ.Take note: there are two trails off the picnic area and you want the one with the 'Gordon Falls' signpost.
A nice stroll to GZ, but an unproductive search. Tried the PAF option, but it seems this one may well be missing. 
Thanks for bringing me to this nice spot though pjmpjm 
Thanks for bringing me to this nice spot though pjmpjm Found 2:04PM whilst fiance walking back to geovehicle. We here on weekend getaway for a friends birthday and today bit of shops and a visit to Gordon Falls lookout. A very nice view from the lookout. I figured I would try to find the geocache before heading back up to the geovehicle these are usually quick to find I was hoping. Not quite so. Using the 5m and GZ I found out it wasnt there after finally perusing another log entry which mentioned 3 metres. As soon as I did that shift there it was. A bit annoyed with myself I hadnt shortened versus I had lengthened my search a bit more. Signed the log and returned cache back to its hiding spot then back to the geovehicle. Thanks for the Cache
A quick find while enjoying the peaceful sounds of flowing water from the nearby falls and the breeze through the treetops. Thanks for the cache pjmpjm
Stunning day and very quick find. Grabbed a coffee and sat on the bench after to take in the stunning views.
Went on a trail run this morning to pick this up. Absolutely stunning lookout, well worth getting up early to see the fog in the valley. Nice quick find which I like on a trail run, I don't have to stop too much! Tftc
Found it! Beautiful sunny day showing my family from the UK around the Blue Mountains TFTC!!
Found. With the hint, the container was quickly in my hands. Well done. Thanks for the cache 
Found it on a beautiful sunny day on a long weekend away to the mountains. Thanks for the cache
Perfect hide in a lovely area. Walked to the lookout with my sisters. No trackable. Hopefully someone has it and will log it. TFTC
This was an easy find and exactly where the co-ords and hint said. I enjoyed the view before finding the cache. TFTC
A quick find slightly complicated by avoiding the gaze of a lone muggle. View from lookout obscured by low cloud, but very atmospheric. Tftc
Managed to remember a pen for the log! All in great condition, and a lovely spot with an incredible view from the lookout just below so make sure you do walk a few more steps down. ....../ ).....' /---' (_____.TFTC . ((__)..... _ ((___)....... -'((__)--.___((_)
I saw the blue on the box then my dad lifted the rock and there it was! Great find!!!
A nice simple find in a beautiful part of the world. My pen fell out of my pocket, so took a photo. Cheers. TFTC
Our second day of walking in the mountains led us to these falls. The scenery is fantastic all along the walk and the falls were flowing.
Spotted the hide between muggles.
Thanks for the hunt pjmpjm

Nice quick find here on our meandering down the Great Western Highway. Picked up the trackable and will help it travel. TFTC and greetings from West Yorkshire, UK!

Probably not the best day to head up to Katoomba for a few caches - so many muggles around and parking anywhere - even at the lookouts - was a nightmare.
As a result I bypassed a few caches I'd have otherwise grabbed. But still nabbed a good number - including a full AL after being lucky enough to get a parking spot at Leura.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
What a great spot. Thankfully the muggles went past GZ and I spotted the hide from the bench.
Timed the grab and added my ink to the log.
After the replace, I joined the tourists at the lookout - such a great view.
Headed ff to the AL in Leura.

fairly quick easy find between passing muggles. Another spectacular lookout nearby. TFTC!
Our special ninja cache-kid was excited to find the cache, and used extreme stealth to access it without alerting the muggles.
Unfortunately didn't find the cache. Loved checking out the views from the lower lookout though
Having done some good hikes in the morning and with a big day planned tomorrow the afternoon was spent on some easy local caching. Most found easily.
The track is open again but couldn't find the cache. Checked some "suspicious" spots but was not lucky. Maybe it's gone?
It's almost sleeting and I have a thermal top, jumper, puffer jacket, scarf and beanie on but it has been years since I was in the area so a few of us are braving the cold and setting out on a little walking adventure.
It is a beautiful area and ginormous scale of the mountains, vibrant green ferns, trees for miles and whooshing waterfalls is spectacular.
Thanks for the cache and enticement to start this walk with my school friends whom are gathered here for the first time in over 20 years.

Such a lovely lookout and the photo doesn’t even start to do it justice because there is no way to capture the cool air that hits you or the sound of the falls or the colours and depth of the valley.
Thanks for placing a cache here. A FP from me based on location. Don’t miss the walk down to the viewing platform.

Another grey, wet and cold day in the Blue Mountains but being tourists we must tour! Quite pleased we came into this one as the mist cleared briefly. TFTC.
Had to wait for some muggles to move away from the spot. But we got there in the end.
Tftc - easy find found with team trashy, wshoeiii and storyteller didn’t have pen so took a photo
