No finders for a long time now, all I saw today was snails ( and I even checked them lol)
Can CO please check it is still alive?

Like a few others recently we did not locate this cache. It looks like there has been some 'renovation' around GZ jus lately. Wonder if that had changed things? Will keep watching thus one. Meanwhile the nearby playground provided shelter from a quickly-passing thunder storm. Cheers... Gaztek
Nothing but snails for me either. Looked in a radius of 5m in case of cache drift, but no luck.
Looked in all the obvious places including the one other logs seem to indicate as 10m from GZ. Looked from every angle, removed some snails but no success.
Wandering around and thought to try this. A few people around, but we searched all the obvious places and nothing. Thanks for bringing us here.
I rode down after work for a quick find, but soon ran into some "technical problems". It was dark and GZ was in the middle of a lawn. I could only see one feature matching the hint, and it clearly did not conceal a cache. I wandered back and forth, and eventually made my mind up to leave. I picked up my bike, but a last urge drove me to read back a few more logs to find one entry that gave what was ultimately a reasonably precise set of corrected coordinates. Walking to the new location about 10m from the listed coords, I spotted GZ - it had been invisible in the dark and matched the hint perfectly. As with others, I struggled to reach in to the container (arachnophobe) so got a stick to hook it out. The log is still damp, a little Ziploc bag would do the trick. Thanks!
I was at this park yesterday (as it's past midnight now) and finding the cache was not a problem, neither were muggles in this rainy weather, no, the real challenge was to open this thing!
I think it took me ten minutes but I finally made it and signed.
Even though it was so hard to open, it is still not waterproof! The logbook is damp.
Thanks for the cache, nice park.

Snails! Lots & lots of snails! Each one felling like "The Cache"! This is why the Blumkas hate putting hands or fingers into dark holes. Yikes ! Anyway, from the right position you can see it.... with the snails! Weekend & lots-o-muggles. TFTC!
Bicycle tour in the eastern subs plus some caching in between. Perfect winter weather to get out of the house. Spotted the obvious GZ straight, cache was easy visible, lying on top. Put it back into a better hiding position, neverthelles should be an easy find for following cachers. TFTC
Out on a late afternoon cycle and had noticed that the owner had replaced the cache, so quickly found it in the dark using my bike lights.

I found this cache months ago but didn't have a pen at the time. Was passing the park today with a pen so went to finally log it but couldn't find the cache. Suspect it has been muggled.
Lovely park here. Great to see the family and community nature of a small space in a large suburban area. TFTC!!
Caught the bus out here from town. Made the find pretty quickly. Geokid had a bit of a play but as it had been raining there were no muggles around. Thanks for the hide Westall0299.
Thanks for the cache. Cool cache, found pretty easily. Cool playground. Caching with McLookers.
Nice quick find with Cocoa while in the area. Another week working in Sydney & great to get some fresh air. Cache was a little exposed so tucked in back in its hidey hole. Thanks so much for the cache Westall0299
Great park, luckily only a few people around today. Co-ords might not be spot on, but hint is adequate to put you at the right spot anyway Quickly signed the log and replaced. TFTC!
Quickly signed the log and replaced. TFTC!Nice day out with my wife, Viola, and daughter, SSSonya. Nice quiet Sunday, with just a few muggles at the park, but soon stealthily had CIH. TFTC
Nice quick find. Park was empty which was a bonus. Log is becoming damp so may need to be to placed in a ziplock bag. TFCT
2/02/14. 7:46 AM. Cache #1316. 5th of 6 caches found this morning while clearing out Randwick council, mostly new ones like this one. Drove here from Snape and started driving down the nearest lane before realising there wasn't any parking here so had to go around the corner and walk.
Cache was found easily thanks to the hint, although I would say the coordinates are about 10m to the North (so about 599 for the S decimal). Since I was near Randwick, I remembered that I needed to find one of the webcams here for the GCA cache and the Webcam Resurrection cache, so headed there next. TFTC }:)

STF or TTF depending on how you see it with smigglepot and lonely rooster visiting together. Tftc great park
After getting an FTF at Rowland Park, we didn't think we'd be in time for an FTF on this one. But happily, the log was empty on arrival.
With the coords spot on, Smigglepot spotted it right-away without the hint, even.
This is one of our favorite parks - especially the giant flying fox and largest slippery slide in the area.
