This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

Sorry I didn’t have a replacement container for what is just trash now.

We have travelled from Sydney’s Northern Beaches to Emu Plains for a short 3 day caching holiday, staying in a park cabin at the Ingenia Nepean River BIG4 Holiday Park at Emu Plains, and are planning to explore the areas between Penrith and Warragamba, including a stop-off on arrival day at St Marys. Hoping to collect some previously solved Puzzle caches and to also complete the Adventure Labs at St Marys, Penrith and Warragamba. Will also be on the hunt for Natural Wonders and Solar System Wonders, to complete the Wonders of the World souvenir challenge.

Today we headed out to Warragamba for the Adventure Lab and the cluster of Traditional caches, then cached around Wallacia and back along Mulgoa Road to Mulgoa. This was our 3rd find of the day, and 25th find of the holiday.

This one was a nice quick roadside "park & grab". TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. It's a nice painted camo job on the container. TFTC The Booos.

Great little find, container was rusty and log wet so replaced with a new container and log

Found cache needs replacement ... was water logged still a great find

Out on a rainy cache day with Littl3Vix and we have decided to head to Warragamba area and see what we can hit up on our way. This was our fourth stop and one we needed the most patience for in my opinion! We had to wait out a few cars before we figured a good approach and went out for the search. Although not our quickest find of the day, we weren't here too long before Littl3Vix called the find. Unfortunately, the lid is now completely broken off and the logbook was too damp to sign.

I had planned to come through this area yesterday for a bit of caching and some fresh air but due to time restraints I didn’t make it. Today though, with an earlyish start MizCupcake and I got together for a geoventure. This was our 4th find for today. So we parked the geomobile close by and jumped out. Searching around we couldn’t find anything. I expanded my search area and soon found something suspicious. Uncovering the hide we came to find *a broken cache that needs maintenance and the log is pretty disgusting with slugs inside.*
We couldn’t do anything to help this one but replaced it and hope the CO can take a look at some maintenance. I have a photo as proof if needed. TFTC!

Trip to Warragamba Dam today, stopped to retrieve this cache.
GPS on point today, took me straight to the cache. Log was wet so I couldn’t sign it, took photo instead.
RC as found. TFTC.

Log requires maintenance, log wet cache lid broken.

I made an incorrect assumption about the container type which threw me for a bit. Going back through the logs I soon realised my mistake and then made a quick find. Tftc!

Park and grab TFTC

Very quick find. Signed and placed back. Cache a little bit damaged but still works and log is in good condition

Such a busy road on Sunday but an easy find

Easy little park and grab. The cache is in fair condition a bit batteted but ok, signed and replaced. TFTC

TFTC.

Since im on my motorbike today, i rode up inro the grass. Funnily enough I pulled up right next to GZ and wandered away from it.
I did spy the cache as I pulled in but thought nah, must be rubbish. Did a circle, came back and it was indeed the cache.. Exposed.

It may have been from when it was mowed, you might want to think about modifying its hiding spot. Cache is a bit squashed (pictured)

First find think I may enjoy this

Found it!

Nice 5 min find

On our way to the event at the dam in the morning we had decided to leave this cache for later, on the way home. Now, heading back towards the city I made a plan to pick up this container. I parked at a suitable spot near the traffic circle and walked around the circle to get to GZ.

The only difficulty here was actually waiting for a quiet window when there were no cars zooming around the traffic circle so that I could extract the container, and return it again once the log sheet had been signed.

All done within a few minutes, and we were back on the road again with probably only two more caches on the radar before hitting the motorway back towards Sydney.

A lazy Sunday caching in the Silverdale/Warragamba area, bagging a total of 20 finds for the day. Most caches were easy finds, a couple had us testing our caching senses

Quick little find tftc

Once GPS settled, we found pretty quickly TFTC

Another quick find.. we are on fire.

Like previous finders, once I had the correct tree, it was an easy drive to the cache. Thanks for the Dam roads. Did the legals and replaced as found. TFTCM

Once I narrowed down GZ it was a quick find. Found with Deep_99, SL #3610 on streak day #2166 TFTC

Quick find with Ris768

Log 1472 Streak Day 526

Log could read like others before me. Once cache was in hand I signed the log as SG as I often do in small logs to save space. Thanks for placing this cache for us to find.

Out and about on a caching run in the Mulgoa/Warragamba area today while the missus spends time in Penrith with a girl friend. A pretty straightforward find here ... thanks for the smiley fwoar.

cashe and log in good condition.

Once we got the correct tree it was plain sailing. Tftc

Ha ha this one made me giggle, prime real estate !

Nice easy find. Thanks

Out today for a day’s caching with marj01, no bush bashing, just park and grab. After heading off pre-dawn from the eastern suburbs we visited the towns of Wallacia, Warragamba, Narellan, The Oaks and Nattai. Lots of caches were found; on the ground, dangling in trees, on signs, in stumps and even one in a haunted house. Whilst most of the caches were familiar we did strike some very ingenious ones. A large percentage of the finds were quick, however, there were some that had us scratching our heads for a while. All in all, it was a very enjoyable day out and I would like to thank all the CO's of the caches for hiding and maintaining the caches that we visited. And yes, I did read the reason/history for each cache in the lead up to the trip.

Out cache with oldmorty on a big day. This one of many caches we found along our travels. Thanks to all the cache owners for maintaining their caches
Took longer than it should of

Out and about with Happy Uke again today. We met up again with our good friend Blueandgolder. The three of us were keen on hunting own some caches for the good of humanity.

Thanks for this one.

Out with Happy Uke and Final29. I found this one, I figured the name of this cache was part of the cache, got closer to Gz saw something and investigated more yes found it.

Picked today for another raid on Warragamba. Finalf29 and I met up with Blueandgolder to start a wonderful day of searching, scrambling, bush bashing and laughing. We each had a hero moment with a spectacular find. Thanks to all the CO's for giving us a fun day... we started off slow, but ended up finding twenty!

This was our thirteenth for the day. Ha ha on camo. Thanks

First find for the New Year!

Out caching with ziggiau on this beautiful Boxing Day. We made the area around Warragamba dam unsafe and had a great time! All the best for 2018 for all the COs!

Quick find under a SPOR, hooked onto a trailer. TFTC!

Loving the Dam series, hoping I've ticked most of them off today. Noticed that LR missed this one but I approached a likely SPOR and shore enough there it was. Maybe LR was distracted by the photo of the real estate guy nearby.

Out on a lazy-ish day so went for a bit of 'freestyle' caching driving around the Warragamba area - i.e. no particular objective other than not needing to walk very far or search very long on such a warm day.
Tally for the day = 25.
Weirdest thing was, coords for most caches visited seemed to be out by 10 metres in the same direction. Perhaps Santa Claus will drop a new GPSr down my chimney.
- - -
Spent a while looking then on consulting recent logs realised I might have to look a lot wider than the stated coords so decided to leave this for a later (not as hot) day.

GZ proved empty, so I widened my search until I saw something that didn't seem to belong. TFTC

Heading to Penrith for a one day conference, took advantage of overnight accommodation on offer which would also allow time for some cache stops along the way. Hadn’t planned to include this one on the agenda, but was literally only metres away from GZ as I neared the intersection to turn right. Co-ords a little out (maybe due to overhead powerlines) but a small radius expansion turned up something different to what I was expecting for this location.

#1284 stopped around the corner and plugged the details into the GPSr then alked back the 50 metres to GZ looked in a couple of spots the spotted it as I turned around. Signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the cache Fwoar

Out and about around Warragamba with the geogangstas, Gabstar and AWTYOW. TFTC

Oooh poor Gabstar ended up in the ants that were surrounding this one! TFTC

Gabby sat in the colony of ants guarding the cache while geo-gangstas helped her to retrieve it. Very amusing for the rest of us! TFTC!

Lots of traffic today, but found the cache

Caching with 007 Mushu, found this one sitting on the ground. Placed it back into a likely spot for the hide following the coordinates. CO may want to check this is in the correct position.
