Phone went dead just before I got to the lookout. Pity I couldn't take a photo. Spectacular views
Quick find but no pen so photo as evidence of needed. Such a hidden but well built platform. Good views.
TFTC!

Back to Currarong for a visit - original plan was a snorkel but cold today so only the adults came down. No set plan on the walk but in the end we did the whole Coomies Walk. Not all caches were found (two were not searched for and two I ran out of time) but always good to leave a few for next time.
What a great spot - views were misty but still great. Talked to some locals and once they left hot Fien and dirty and looked. Found the cache where I thought it would be but only once I spotted from the other side - the initial search was not thorough enough. A FP added.

Gorgeous view and we are blessed with a beautiful day! Unfortunately our pen stopped working halfway through the walk
During a wkd at Callala bay. We walked around Currarong head. Every lookout was awesome. And the second part of the track, it was us. Beautifull day.
At GZ quick find.

Found! Had to wait for some people to leave the area before we started our search. Based on previous logs it was clear where to look and soon had CIH.
Was kind of a quick find. We had to wait 30mins for muggles to have a coffee before leaving. TFTC
DNF'd this one a year ago when I was here last. Today I picked up the search and was almost ready to give again!! One last search of the same area, and I spotted it! Not sure how I missed it after all this looking. I had a bad case of cache blindness. Turns out I didn't need to climb down the rocks at all, but I am sometimes good at upping the terrain ratings of cached. Thanks for the fun find and the nice view!
Found tyftc. Hopefully going to finish this little headland on this visit. Find #2814
Gorgeous views over the bay and beaches. GC coords were a little off. I was about to give up but decided to give it one last look. Got it! TFTC. Started this walk with gremlindaddy and the kids. Didn't finish it with them however as they turned back while I continued Coomies Walk. At this point I was solo and without water as realised Gremlindaddy had this in his bag. I persevered and continued forward along the track.
Stunning views here today especially Clare
Log too wet to write on without damaging it

Needs some maintenance, paper has gone soggy. Other than that, lovely view and easy cache!
Another quick find by the grandkids. What a view! TFTC JENNEG and Budgy plus 3 geogrand kids nd mum. Left a penny.
Today Loci612 and I (Darksidedan) left Canberra at 5am and headed out to Goulburn to pick up Fitzy_1965. Not long after we were at the first cache of the day. An FTF north of Moss Vale then onto Nowra to find a swag of 40 plus caches for the day. The days highlights included seeing two Sea Eagles, millions of birds, a Wombat and A Dolphin. In Total I drove 660kms and we cached for a total of 16 hours including driving time.
This cache was one of the caches that we found. The cache was signed DSD for Darksidedan. Thanks for the cache and the adventure. We will be back this way to clean up any caches we missed this time.
A Very Big Congrats to Loci612 who got his 10,000th cache find and managed to do his 6th D/T Loop on the same cache. I was glad to be there for such a milestone.

**This Cache:**
Was not expecting to see an elevated man-made platform here! Not bad views, but definitely nowhere near as good as the cliff's on the edge of the ocean nearby!
Had my hand on this one very quickly, GPS brought me straight here!
Thanks

**Today:**
Myself, DSD and Fitzy_1965 planned a long day trip down to Nowra, and Currarong to pick up some caches! I was nearing my 10,000th find, and 6th D/T loop so had a cache lined up for the milestone! We left Canberra at 5am, picked up Fitzy from Goulburn, grabbed an unexpected first to find in the Southern Highlands, and then headed down to the coast!
The day lasted 16 hours before we finally returned home after 9pm. A very successful day, I don't believe we had a single DNF! My milestone cache did take 1 hour to find though, phew!
Thanks to all the CO's and DSD + Fizty for the company

21,185. Found during a run down the coast with Darksidedan and Loci612.
Big Congratulations to Loci612 who achieved his 10,000th find plus completed his 6th D/T Loop on the same cache. It was a pleasure (if not rather terrifying) to be with him on his Milestone cache.
After an early start from Canberra, the guys arrived right on time at 6 to pick me up, then after grabbing a surprise first to find we headed towards Nowra. After a few choice finds there, we headed to this reserve for the main aim of the day. This cache was offline (muggled) the last time I walked past, so it was good to find it this time. Surprised to find the viewing platform here !
Thanks seaker200 !!

Second time lucky! A rainy day, so not the best view at the lookout. GPS led us into the scrub, but eventually found. Log was a bit wet and pencil is broken. Tftc, seaker200!
Yay!! Should have found it in a shorter time. The coordinations are bogus.
Second time lucky. Easy this time. Fifteen months ago could see the wood for the trees.
MrT found this cache while exploring the area. He went past the trig a few days ago, not knowing about the cache, and saw it when he went on line later. So he came for a walk back again! Just as well he likes walking.

Awesome views was looking at something else then saw it was straight in my face TFTC.
We do love a good trig! (Paris bear who travels with us is photographed at trigs and lighthouses). And even better, though the trig is treed in, just around the corner is a platform with a view. And again, the vegetation changes, with lush young gums flourishing... remarkable. Good coords leads to a quick find... clever to attach the necessary to attach. TFTC seaker200
What a nice spot this one is, found the cache without too much trouble. I signed the log while admiring the view tftc
Came for a walk along here today with Chip and Juno. Juno dropped by to add some km to here trackable.
Out for a bush walk on this lovely day with Clan Venter.
What a lovely area with lots of caches.
Thanks for the cache.
Greetings from South Africa.

Hitting the bay region for a well deserved break with the geofamily, better get some caches while I'm here. Weather hit and miss, but better than it is at home. An early start to the day to get some kms under the belt, aiming to be back and out to the beach with the kids before lunch. TNLNSL TFTC
The phone led us astray into the scrub but eventually we looked back in the obvious spot. TFTC
A storm rolling in so we’re Hopi g to make short time of the rest of the walk! Hm...... almost ready to move on when outdoornut22 felt it with his hand!! I should have seen it as I was on the other side
OCW Pel Droed Gwin in Ellie the GeoKombi, we camped for the weekend at the beachside park.
Another special place

Got a little misled by some previous logs but searched the obvious location and had cache in hand. Tftc

OCW Brewmaker and EverestHigh. Answers were sent by EverestHigh. TFTC seaker200!
OCW EverestHigh and MaxAdventurer on a trip south. Day 2 of our caching adventure. A young muggle couple almost spoiled our party but patience psid off once they left. TFTC
A great roadtrip with friends, always makes for a wonderful time.
Apologies for the generic logs and thanks to all COs for their caches put out for the fun and enjoyment of others.

A late start to a day of caching that stretched into the night. A really nice stroll out Coomies way. TFTC
With another beautiful day free, I decided to head down to Currarong to find the caches in Abrahams Bosom Reserve along Coomie's Walk and the Wreck Walk. It took a little while to get into the swing of things. By late afternoon, we were operating at a decent pace and finding caches without many hassles. Thanks to the Cache Owners for maintaining the caches in the area!
Found with Muppet95 and Co. on an afternoon outing in Currarong. We had a great time walking around Abrahams Bosom Reserve & found a fair amount of caches as a reward. Thanks For The Caches
#1427 It is not often the whole Gozanators team is together these days and this was the first time with Geo-pup. All up we spent about 5 hours on the circuit with a couple of detours. This was our (late) lunch stop with a view. Despite the advice of the previous log ( and we would agree with about a 4-5 m N offset) it took us way too long to find this one. Finally geo-daughter announced "found it" so that meant she had the signing honors. In the distance we could see a couple of areas of rain, so refuelled and rehydrated, it was on our way again.
