Pennant Hills Park Travel Bug Exchange Pennant Hills, New South Wales, Australia
By Goughy2012 on 01-Nov-13. Waypoint GC4RBV2

came down and had a good look for this one sadly i believe this one has been removed possibly by a muggle mistaking it for rubbish. There is alot of building material rubbish that has been dumped near GZ some of which i removed from the site. Hopefully in the future i will replace the TB exchange but for now sadly it is goodbye.

Replacement cache has been manufactured will head out and see if this cache needs replacing.

should be online by the end of next week.

Will head out when time permits to look at this cache. A needs archiving log is not required just because a few have not found this cache.

DNF

Time to archive?

Stopped off on my way back home after visiting the Amateur Radio NSW (HAM Radio) bi-monthly Trash & Treasure sale at Quarry Road Dural, to have a look for this one. Searched around GZ for a while, but failed to find a cache. There will be no travel bug exchanging going on today!

Scrambled around but could not find

Searched for a bit with another family but no joy

Didn't leave enough time... Maybe next time

Looked everywhere for it. Scratched around but no luck. It's not working for us today.

Searched the area thoroughly with two members of sfam5 ... but came up empty! This is our second in a row here today that we can't seem to lay our hands on

Yay found it, looked too far off carpark, it 's quite close

Made this so much harder then I should have. Glad I did't fall I my excitement as no one here. maybe would have had to wait for the weekend TFTC

After a big adventure finding Higgins Hidden Valley #1, I came in search of this one which was found quite easily. I initially opened the soaked logbook but then saw the new one in it's ziplock bag. I added my name to the list and grabbed the two TBs that were in the cache. Thanks for the hide Goughy2012.

Dropped off a trackable today TFTC

Headed down to Sydney with Mumma-Kel today for our regular geo-outing, and when this series of caches in Pennant Hills Park caught our attention, we called by on the way through. We found the cache here pretty quickly thanks to the hint, but then inside it, we found a logbook that was far too damp to be able to record our attendance. Fortunately, we (well actually Mumma-Kel) were able to replace it with a little notebook she had in here kit bag ... the new and the old books are now in separate cliplock bags in the box.

Thanks for this cache/series Goughy, and for the smiley this hide gave me.

After collecting the rest of the series it was onto the tennis area, and luckily for us, out of sight of the many Muggles playing a morning round. I hopped down sufficiently to quicky find the cache and brought it back up to the car where we did what we could to fix it up. The existing logbook was way too soggy to be of any use to anyone, so we sealed it back in its bag, and ADDED REPLACEMENT LOGBOOK.
Of the TBs listed, only one appeared to be inside, which I exchanged for Lil Ted (Snuller), who is contained in his own plastic Baggie for safe keeping
Thanks for the cache Goughy2012, and the series that brought me to visit this park

Lovely area tftc

Found. Log too wet to write on.

Out for a day of Caching with Snoopy1976 it was decided that we hit the Hornsby area we found many good caches in the area and this was one of them TFTC.

On an assault of the Hornsby area and surrounds found with Team Tonka. TFTC

Thankyou for the walk in the park
what i really really liked was the thorn bushes around the gz
good thing i carry bandaids lol

btw the container was water logged and should be replaced

Great find for a Friday after school! Also our first trackable item. Taken the trackable hammer to deposit somewhere else. Exciting stuff!! TFTC

With a few TBS from Perth wanting a place to rest, this seemed like a good spot to visit today

I made this more challenging by doing it after sunset. I eventually spotted it.

TFTC.

I was out car hunting today and after visiting one of the nearby dealers, thought I'd grab a cache or two on such a beautiful day. I continued on down to this one and there was Mr Ranger relaxing in his car close to GZ. Wouldn't you know it!! No other vehicle around except his, right where I needed to be. I just continued driving around and left the area. I actually came back later but he was still there! So not a DNF for me today, just a Write Note as I didn't even begin a search. I'll be back!

Up from Canberra for the 15 years of Geocaching event at Lane Cove National Park and nab a whole bunch of caches on my weekend geomission

Nice easy find by torchlight during my geomission. What a popular sports precinct this is-hundreds of people on the courts at past 9pm on a Saturday night!

Thanks for the hide, Goughy2012

Found by Geoson aged eight and we left lots of swapsies as it was looking rather bare.

Found it. Trouvé. ????

Found it!

Found some caches in the wet weather. All in the process to reach my milestone of 4000 finds in a couple of weeks.
I collected all the travel bid, just to find out layer that I had already held one of them before.
Thanks for the cache.

Another find of the day with Pez993! Tftc

Nice little spot to hide some bugs. Found some real ones too. Was tempted to take one but thought I wouldn't be heading anywhere cool soon so might come and grab one later. Thanks for the cache.

Quick find. Swapped one tb. Thanks for placing, got to run starting to rain.

Nice and easy cache. Be careful of the spiky plants around! They gave me a couple of scratches. TFTC!

Nice hide

Just visiting as we didn't have one to drop. There are 2 in the cache. TNLN TFTC

Walking tour from Pennant Hills Station on my day off in SYD. Quick find here. Dropped a bug from the USA. Took one. Only two in the cache. Good hide. TFTC!!

Found it with a team of 8 GeoKids!
The site was guarded by a possum in a hidy-hole overhead!
We left a TB but didn't take one.
TFTC

I would encourage Geocachers to use this TB exchange, it is pretty good especially on non-sporting event days.

Good one, nice rocks.

Yay. Found with elizabethwyf

TFTC

Very easy find, came here with geopartener to exchange travel bugs. Panda out Klompen in. All other listed trackables are missing!

This is the best weekend to come geocaching at Pennant Hills Park. Weather is a bit overcast and cool and there is hardly a muggle in sight. We are marvelling at the size of this place!

Funny to read about learning drivers using this parking lot. Needed a long reach to nab this container. TN L a panda TB SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek

After a week of preparations for Christmas, including a number of Christmas functions, we felt it was time to spend some time outside. What better then than looking for some geocaches. It was a nice Sunday, not too hot, and also not too many people out and about.

After having found two other Pennant Hills Park caches (and skipped one which had a number of DNFs against it), we went to another empty carpark, and parked very close to GZ. Even with help of the hint, we had to look hard before we found the well hidden container.

Quick look - not obvious and L plater going round and round stared getting curious

As others have said. No tb's here. Buy a nice easy find. Nice walk near here. Tnln. S. L. Tftc.

Nice hide. No TB's in there.

TFTF -enjoyed the find.

Found it with the same nice people. Nice hidde

No TBs nice hide.

Good find but no bugs

Found it with the xerorex

First one in the park for the day. Hoping to get a few others. TFTC

Followed a L-plater here from car park at Netball Anyone?? Ten sloooooooow minutes later (that's what it felt like!) we parked the car and got out to look for the cache. Fought of a prickly bush to make a quick find.

We were emerging from the hide when a fourth L-plater crawled into the carpark.

Onto Where's the Love Gone??

Nice quick find today. A good hide below the line of sight.

No trackables in here though and I don't have any to leave, alas.

Thanks for the cache!

Nice find with my man Zac!

Nice find with my Dad!

Our 200th find! It started to rain quite heavily as we found this one. In our haste to pack the cache container up and get back to the car, we forgot to drop off the geocoin we were carrying. TFTC.

After the meeting a short walk together with a colleague and find quickly.

Greetings from Germany
Andy

Took a couple of minutes, was looking close but not close enough!

Cheers

Found it!! Getting late, luckily the carpark was empty. Happy Father's Day.

Easily found the second time round!!!

Took a nice walk through Pennant Hills and found this One on the way.

Thank you
Team sissifalke

As a cache owner you can mark the TB's missing if they are not in the cache.
Then I as an owner of a TB in your cache know its missing.

I know now and will mark it missing.

None of the 4 tb listed are there.

Nice spot shame about litter and weeds around edge. None of the 4 listed tb are there so adding 3. Wasn't really covered. Loved the gums here. Tftc tn

Missing tbs is nothing I can sort out.

Paul the hippy there is no need for a needs maintainance log for this issue.

If you have taken tbs for here please log them.

Found at 1:31pm. After finding 'Netball Anyone' just a short distance from this cache, this was my next target. I managed to spot this one within a few minutes amongst the shrubbery. No muggles to contend with so it was an easy search much like the previous cache.

SL, took nothing left nothing, TFTC

Easily accessible. No TB's here at present. TFTC

Quite dark when I went to look and I wasn't too keen to hang around for long - looking forward to coming back in the daytime

Quick easy find after a game of hockey!

Easy find!!

Took us ages to find and really weird spot- in a medium Tupperware box-

3rd of the day. TFTC.

We dropped off the Morgan trackable that we picked up in Melbourne. Please look after it and send it on its way up north.

Found easy
Taken the travel bug YAY !!!

A relatively easy p&g here today, thanks.

Found it! Woohoo! Yes!¡

Refound to drop trackable

Easy find - though got to be careful with your footing. Dropped off Jessie - unfortunately no bugs to swap with. Please help her get as many kilometres as she can - she is in a competition! Found with Pixelstache. TFTC!

Also, I'm a bit concerned that there were supposed to be 4 other trackables in this cache - but when I found it, there weren't any. If you pick up a trackable, please record it!

Found koala, dropped coin

Found it. Tnln

Nobody even close by, great idea to jog here in the Easter hols. TFTC!

Found it as described. Great hide!

1010 GAFF1 After finding two trig points at an institution that I used to work at in the 80's I was trying to find this TB Exchange, when I was almost muggled out here. Don't what it is with people going into the Great Outdoors so they can smoke and pollute the fresh air
Went on photographing the flowers for about half an hour until he finally left! (staying at least 10 m away from where I thought GZ was) Eventually had the chance to look there, and sure enough found the well covered cache, including (I believe) "No Bull - keep me mooooving" TB [?] Will check my cache bag, and make sure that I do have it; but I certainly WASN'T there yesterday!
Have placed a AWOL in action note for CANDYBOY, Frodo, Best of the Bad, and Starlight Star Bright TBs.
Left: The Cache Koala, and thought I took the No Bull TB, mmmm!
(I understand that MVMB was here yesterday, maybe that I where I got the code from!
Day 496 of GeoStreak, and coming this far from home lets me leave the final x 8 caches within 80 km for the days I am working On Call, which is very soon!

This time dropping off Cache Koala. And it seems that I inadvertently left "No Bull" behind, sitting on the rock from where I took its photo!

Found cow kqezwy on the rock next to cache. Will take and find a new place to hang out.

Had come down to visit with a muggle friend, and thought I would head here to find a cache. LOTS of cars, but noone around this area. Cache soon found - not as many TBs as listed tho.
Brought thru Discover Me Tag
TFTC Goughy2012 - sorry about the late logging - 12/5

It appears that there are a few TBS missing out of my hotel. If you have taken then please LOG them as in your hands and not inside the cache. There is now physically 1 TB in the hotel.

I decided the best way to get a bunch of sporty caches was by participating with a sporty endeavour myself. So I asked the geowife to drop me off with the bike near Epping Boys and I rode the fire trails up to these parks. Now any of you who have done that ride will know that there is a T4 climb involved in that ride!

First found was "WHERE'S THE LOVE GONE?". The most difficult, indeed when I found it I thought maybe there was some camo missing. But I guess this hide reflects the CO's disappointment at that little seat getting butchered.

Then a short cut through to the Traval Bug exchange. After not finding it intitially I looked at the hint which pointed me to the hide. It was choc full of trackables, one attached to a huge cow too large to fit in my pockets. Took 2 x geocoins.

Third was Netball, the hint got me to the spot once more. I gave the cache a bit of TLC, i.e. emptied the water. The log was fine in its bag though.

Fourth came Light It Up, I wondered if this was the home ground of the CO's Aussie Rules team? I was glad to get a specific hint here as these containers are problematic if specific info is not given.

Lastly up to the rugby field. Is there any sport you can't play here? I was glad that all along the way there weren't many muggles, it must still be between the cricket and rugby seasons as most fields were empty except for a few training sessions.

All in all a great ride, even all the way home to Gladesville. TFTCs Goughy2012

Found it and dropped off travel bug.

Found it at co-ordinates.

We where headed for a new listing yesterday and then realised special equipment was required so being near and having a geo coin we wanted to move on we detoured to here. Last time we came to look it seemed to be a favourite extended long lunch break area for some utility trucks and vans but this time the place was empty. We saw the geo trail and soon made a quick find. We completed the signing duties and discovered a few travel bugs and coins before re hiding. TFTC

Great spot for a TB exchange. Had none on me so just checked out the good collection here. So nice to see a few GC's and TB's. They seem to be getting less common compared to a few years back. Thanks Goughy2012.

Down from Brisbane so went and picked up my TB Jupiter's dollar which Goughy2012 had taken on a journey around the hills for me earlier in the year. With no muggles around today as it is wet and cloudy it was a straight walk to the cache . With TB back in the fold it will now head to Hawaii later in the year . Thanks Geoughy 2012 TFTC SL. Did not move any other TB's as the ones on me are my traveller's.

Scary find at night with bigaye and kaykay. (:

Scary find at night. But was found in the end. With jasmine n kay kay.

Found with geopanther77. TFTC.
