By contactpete on 21-Jun-15. Waypoint GC5XXPC

Found this cache sitting waist high in a tree quite exposed about 10 metres West of the play equipment.
Left cache where found but provided some cammo to hide it's location. TFTTC.

look to be gone, oh well

Looks like this one has gone again. The CO needs to take a look.

Looks like is has disappeared again. Spent a long time looking but no find

#758 on the way out this morning stopped here after going passed the previous night but too dark to check. By the time I had grabbed the cache the the GPSr was just getting recepthion what with the storm clouds & rain about. Thanks for the cache contactpete

Good co-ordinates meant that this was quite a quick and easy find with no one around to hinder the hunt. The cache was well hidden and all was in good condition. The log was soon signed and returned to its container. Thank you contactpete for placing this cache and for showing us a nice little park area that we have not visited before.

No. 611

Quickly grabbed this one today amidst the ABYSMAL weather, on my way home from a delish birthday lunch with the fam. Got in, signed, replaced, and got out as quickly as possible, and had no trouble finding the cache, but got drenched all the same. Unsurprisingly, no muggles in the area! TFTC

The cache of the day, on the way to work. Nobody in the park, so I could search undisturbed.

Yass pretty good. Tftc

replaced this hide.

Same spot

Cache on!

Went to do maintenance, only to find it missing, I will make a new container in the coming days.

Last find of the day... Had a google a geogangstas on his knees! TFTC

Last for the day - I got down and dirty to retrieve it. TFTC!

A nice quick and easy find TFTC

Fast find with hint. Nice park

Sure was!! Thanks for the hide.

Nice

Find number 3409

The Booo's found this cache!

We parked near the cache and spotted the suspicious looking spot and had the cache quickly in hand. The log signed and the cache returned we continued on our caching afternoon.

Thanks contactpete for placing this cache

Yay, our first find in Sydney

Our experience matches the cache name. No muggles in sight today. Cache on ground since it's not sticking too well. Replaced in curvy part. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek

The container is wet, logbook is soaked.

Team Omam from the Netherlands has only one aunt left. And as she will have her 100th birthday early February, we decided to join the birthday party. But …., she lives in Sydney Australia! An excellent opportunity for us to explore this continent once again and find Geocaches along the way. We will do a 3.5 weeks trip! At places where we will stay for a few days (Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney and Darwin), we will organize Meet and Greet events. We will try to find mainly caches with high favorite points, caches from 2000 and 2001, earth caches, webcam caches, virtuals and letter box hybrids.

After DNFing 'Another Nice Little Park & Grab', I attempted this cache as it was relatively close by. I used to have students in this street so the area was familiar. I parked right outside the playground and checked the hint as I approached GZ. This made it very easy to locate the cache although it was getting dark. To ensure it was the cache, I used my torch to double-check. SL. TFTC.

found this one on my way back from a meeting this afternoon great hide. the park was empty.

All seems well

Cache on!

Found away from GZ and possibly been tampered with as used fireworks were found nearby. Put it back at coordinates for GZ and according to hints. May need to be checked by the owner just in case we placed it in the wrong spot.

Found it nearby and retuned to where we thought it should be. Need to check and see.

Found with eagle eye MK&LadyG. TFTC

Quick find with the Richo's. TFTC

To hot this morning so had the park to ourselves

Moved away from the Slippery Dip and lucky find

TFTC Sl

Very easy!

I usually dread a cache on park play equipment...especially when I'm not with the kids for cover, but the weather must have kept all the kids away today.

Easy to pick !

Easy find but even a tad sneaky. TFTC

Quick easy. But ants everywhere. TFTC.

A quick park and grab indeed.

Parks muggle free, quickly located , duties done and on the road again. TFTC

Grrrrr couldn't find it at all.

TFTC log to follow

Nothing better then a playground for Master Q and a geocache for me:) Easy find as I saw it laying on the ground. I hid it as best as I could but the magnets are not very strong so not exactly sure where the original hiding spot was.

Heaps of pink gallahs around too. Although not anymore as master Q scared them all away; )

Mum found it whilst I was chasing the birds.

I was a little aghast when I saw GZ, I wouldn’t normally attempt such hides when not in the company of YGAT. However, the place was deserted and I knew where to look so it was a nice little park and grab.

Thanks again contactpete.

No one about today, so it was a quick find.

What a walk in the park

Found with Jase90 during a day out in Western Sydney in an effort to help me get closer to reaching my milestone goal of 2,000 finds at the last ever Geocaching Block Party in Seattle this August. We started over at Prospect with Madness Gateway and Sydney's Newest- Relocated. Then onto Pemulwuy for William Lawson and Veteran Hall, and then across to Blacktown for Pope's Garden, Train Spotter - Roma and URBAN SV (where we had a long chat with the Cache Owner, nice to meet you!). Back in Prospect we then found Quick park & Grab, for the streakers., For Marissa & Mel's streak, Home Sweet Home, Time to Commuicate. (is it meant to be Communicate?) and Prospect Park First Cache. Heading over to Seven Hills, Jase90 and I continued on to tackle Nice little park & grab and Snowy Reserve Cache. In Girraween we found the Former Railway Corridor Toongabbie, then in Pendle Hill we grabbed Knox's Box and our final stop out west was in Old Toongabbie where we picked up Spot the Geoduck.

On the way back home, we decided we could fit in a few more and we stopped by North Rocks and found 4,3,2,1 and Measure Up. We then finished off the day in Ryde and Eastwood with Up The Garden Path and Beanstalk respectively.

All in all, a fun day out with Jase90 and we picked up some beauties along the way. For all of the caches, I Signed Log and Took Nothing Left Nothing. A successful day out in terms of find rate! Thanks For The Caches to all of the respective Cache Owners.

Found at 11:30am with JordsAU.

JordsAU and myself were out on a day of caching trying to boost our numbers in the area's of Prospect, Blacktown and a couple of other surrounding suburbs. We started as early as possible this morning so we could obtain a decent amount of smileys. We were also heading to the footy in Moore Park later on in the afternoon which meant that we needed to be finished and to head back by 1:30pm.

I have not done any caches out this way in my 3-year Geocaching career but JordsAU had acquired a small handful over the years which meant that we needed to stick to caches unfound to the both of us. It didn't seem to prove too difficult as there were plenty around.

The weather today was stunning, barely cold in the early morning and it even became quite hot in the late morning.

'Nice little park & grab' was the 12th of 19 caches we ticked off today. We parked just across the road from the playground and carefully made the journey across to begin our search. There were very few places the cache could've been hiding in this instance and given the name of the cache we knew it shouldn't be too difficult a task. I eventually spotted something which looked cache-like and our suspicions were confirmed when we went in for retrieval.

Signed log, thanks for the cache contactpete

Don't you just love caches hidden on playground equipment? I stopped, saw some mums with their kids at GZ, I left.

Streak Day #748 - quick stop on way to seven hills...This one way too easy. TFTC

Had to pick geoteen up at Seven hills station so this was a nice distraction while I was waiting for the train. TFTC.

I had to work back tonight and so I decided to get a local cache as my caching buddy went off on her own earlier. Nice quick find SL #2056 on streak day #1111 TFTC

After finishing my chores early this afternoon, I decided to spend the afternoon caching.

Had no problem finding this one soon as I saw the park I slid right into action and found the cache. Sighed the log.

Thanks for the cache

An easy find with the cache in view from the right position.

#1966 (2 of 2 today)

Needed some quick finds today, before my mother's birthday, and this area fit the bill - two caches near each other that looked to both be park and grabs.
thankfully, that's how it panned out.
[center]END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION[/center]
And my second target.

Parked a short distance from the park and walked in. Hmmm. Choice of three. Of course it was the third one I checked.
Sigh.

Actually, the cache was obvious once I checked this spot. I worry it could easily be mistaken for rubbish and removed. Not 100% sure how the cache was originally employed (tried a few unsuccessful options), so replaced it as I found it - hopefully a little more obscured.
Maybe the CO might check this one just in case.

Completed signing duties at the nearby bench.
Time to go.

Lives up to its name. Needed one to keep my small streak. TFTC Pete!

So this is the one you found Fox. Gj

Found in the 2nd place I looked.

Thanks for the Nice little park & grab

Tftf. ..

Watched Aussie as he searched for this while I sat in the car. He was so confident he didn't need the gps. Yep tftc SL

Oooo! Another playground cache.
Not sure just how lucky I was that on the first day of the school holidays, no one was playing in the park.
Thanks for the cache.

I needed a phone-a-friend here. I wouldn't have if I had the hint!?! Too early a download!

TFTC.

27/06/15. 11:14 AM. Cache #2630. Streak day #370.
2nd of 7 caches for the day; clearing all the new caches that popped up around Blacktown City on Thursday.

Previous: "This area has changed a lot...". Parked across the road and walked straight to GZ. Thanks to the hint, the cache lived up to its name. Next: "Prospect History". TFTC.
} : )

#3074- At least being the last day of school, when I pulled up there were no kids in the park. The GPS kept bringing me back to the same spot. I went in for the kill and there it was. Glad not to be looking for this in the next two weeks. Thanks

Timed this cache right as the kids were on their way home from school. In the third place to look to have CIH, thanks contactpete
