Lots of trees and bushes cut down. May need to check if it has not been removed by workman...
 
21-Oct-17
Had trouble pin pointing GZ. Quite a few small trees have been cut down and are laying in heaped piles, possibly covering cache?? Would be great if CO could check.
Great view and geokid approved of the playground. So T4TC even if it was a DNF for us today.

Really large, terrifying spiders surrounding the cache... Also a lot of mozzies. Wouldn't have been able to do this if J0shuajames hadn't come to the rescue. Thanks for the cache, very nice view Smile.

TFTC!! Fairly simple find if you exclude navigating the maze of spiders.
 
Found it, pen isn't working so here's a photo as proof,

Did not think this either kid friendly or easy. The mosquitos and the random lizard/snake noises were not expected. Nor the confusing clues/find notes were unhelpful. I wish this had been easier.

Another warm sunny day, so we headed out to pick up some caches in the Newcastle area.
With a good variety of hides, we were kept busy all day.
Cache was found quickly, and in good condition.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Themovs, for us and others to find.

Had to bash through numerous shrubs, thorns, spikes, tall twigs and branches before getting to the cache.

If you find a shoe, then you should be in the GZ.

Found TB LSB7WX and The Badman Family card, TFTC Themovs

After fixing up some DNFs yesterday I thought I should have another go at this one. I got my son and headed out. He was enjoying the small playground While I went up the hill and searched. I was very happily surprised that I found it quite quickly and that I could see him playing at the same time. I took it back to show him and I signed the log and returned it, before playing a lot more and driving the boat around. I found it strange that the path makes a nice oval around the playground, but does not go anywhere, I guess that makes it a good racetrack.
Thanks for the play, hide and nice view!

We came down from the top road passing spiky shrubs. While the others searched under every small bush in the vicinity, I followed the GPS direction, scanned the area & spotted the cache. No sign of a small bush anywhere near it! SL TNLN TFTC Themovs

Damn spiders! Damn mosquitoes! Accessing via bush was silly. Quick find though. TNLN TFTC
 
28-Dec-14
Found it! Hardest part was figuring out how to get there (I approached from the top of the hill). I strongly recommend wearing insect repellent and watch out for spiders. Brought TB through.

Nice park and a great view of the non stop coal and shipping industry around Newcastle.

Lived here all my life but never got around to see this particular view.

Lots of insects, flies and farmers friends as I descended from the top road, which was not a good idea in hindsight.

Thanks for the cache!

I spent way too long looking for this easy cache. I used the hint, I read the logs, I stopped using the hint, I gave up. Nice park though, I will have to come back with the family.

Thanks Themovs !!
