This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.


Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache.

If you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) within the next 45 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

Cache is notvisable can owner plz check on cache

No luck.

Agree with last log. Trees be cut back no cache to be found

After avenging a DNF across the way, I came and had a look for this cache. The area looked more sparse than I previously remember. Using aerial photography, it appears that Council has carried out some maintenance in the area after the last finder. Definitely worth the CO having a look at this one.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

TFTC with Pulloa. The bag is broken and the log is wet

Sneaky hide
Found with BrodyT2010

Geocache No: 660
Time: 16:24
Condition: Good
Experience: This was our 3rd Geocache for the day. We had stopped caching for a long time and decided we really wanted to get back to it and start hitting the find count that we really should be at.
This cache was an easy find but it looks to be like, broken?!
Placing a needs maintenance for the care of this cache.

Thank you for the cache.

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

Quick park and grab
Thanks for the cache

I brought the kids out after school today to find a cache on Blue Switch Day, 2nd May - "the day [in 2000] GPS availability was opened to the public, allowing geocaching to come into existence". Ms S pointed the geokids in the direction of a particular object and Little Shoes was the one to find it. TFTC

The name is a hint, took a bit of searching, Ms Shoes spotted it but Little Shoes grabbed it. TFTC.

Mum spotted this cache after a bit of looking and I grabbed it. Creative hiding spot. TFTC

On an evening caching run with my friend Czech_that_out while walking our puppies....
Found this one after further inspection.

Found this with my daughter today after discovering Geocaching. I was in two minds about this one but we eventually found it.

On a cache run around the area today and cherry picked the caches that matched missing dates in our hidden date calendar. With three finds today filling these days, this one was the second find for the day. This one took us a bit longer to locate and after 30 minutes of hunting we sent out an SOS to a past finder....only to find the container 5 seconds later. With the cache in hand we signed the log before replacing as found. Thanks for the cache GingerGiraffe.

The following TBs came through for the mileage: Bob geoMinion, Dave geoMinion, Evil geoMinion, Jerry geoMinion, Larry geoMinion, Mary Hyde's Treasure, Stuart geoMinion, teamMerlin's 7 Deadly Ducks Tag (Lust), Vanlith The Youngling.

Way too hot to be caching. Found some 5mts from GZ . Log wet and looking rather tattered. Could do with some love. TFTC

The trees are in as much distress finding this cache! Found it 9 metres from GZ finally!

You'll have a splitting head ache over this one... hahaha..
Cool camo. Tftc

Another fun one! Really enjoying your caches and the descriptions. Tftc

Absolutely loving yr descriptions. Found pretty quickly. TFTC

TFTC Thank you for going to the effort of hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity. Bbb

The hottest day ever I think that we have headed out caching - even the bison tubes were piping hot We tried to choose the cooler parts of the day but it did not quite work. This was one we were able to find. Thanks to GingerGiraffe for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

#1434 second time I have come to look for this one didn’t have much time between physion & work but didn't get the right spot, this time it was a quick find as it was the first spot I looked today. Signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the cache GingerGiraffe

Found with WaywardWoman. A nice quick find - creative camo. Signed log then watched some baby birds. TFTC

#4370- Out caching for an early morning trip with thomo31, who spotted this one easily. As my geosphere app is no longer working, I have to use the &@#}** official Geocaching app. Though I had a plan, we decided to give up and try for the closest ones.

Whilst flying my new Space Shuttle Kite for a while I observed a family trying to find the cache. They found it just as i approched them and we replacd the log with a nice new one in a zip lock bag.

Sorry for the delayed fixing but it's due to a lack of time because of the HSC I haven't been able to keep them up to scratch. How ever exams finish in 4 weeks so I do plan on doing the rounds and fixing it up as well as finding a few more.

Sorry for any inconveniences
Regards
GingerGiraffe

Great idea for a cache. The logbook was in bad shape so I placed a new sheet and bag in the cache. Afterwards we met the CO, which was awesome. Lovely to meet you

Tftc

The last of 17 finds from Dean Park to Schofields.
The cache needs some maintenance as its condition was more of a giveaway than the clues.
TFTC

The container needs maintenance and a dry log needs to be supplied.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache. The log is soaked and unable to be written on. The plastic bag containing the log is dirty and torn.

#749 - Garmin eTrex 30

This was the only find for the day but I'm very late in logging my find. I parked just across from GZ and made my way to the trees to start my search. I had previously attempted this cache but to no avail. This time I knew what I was looking for and after several minutes noticed some of the camo had fallen away, revealing the plastic bag containing the log. I tried to sign my name but the log is completely soaked and the bag is torn. The best I could do was mark the paper with my pen which left some grooves. SL. TFTC.

Found after a short search the log is soaked and I could barely write on it TFTC replaced as found

Streak day 111

#271
After another long walk through knee high grass and wet ground from Up high down low my shoes are soaking wet.
I had an idea of what to look for with the title of this cache in mind. It was still long before I found the cleverly constructed cache.
The log was saturated from all the rain we've been having, and a freezer bag does not keep the water out. I was fortunate to still be able to sign the log. And replaced it as found.

Just an odd one for today, quick find TFTC

Thanks for the cache! Cool disguise. Unfortunately we couldn't sign the log as it was all wet

I left home a little later than planned for my weekly drive from the Central Coast to Windsor today but I still had time for a little bit of caching along the way ... and with the possibility of picking up 5 smilies in this one park, the decision to stop here was an easy one. This one was a fairly straightforward find though it took a couple of minutes before my eyes came upon something that needed a closer look. Congrats on a nicely put together hide here GingerGiraffe, well done!

Found finally. GPS in phone kept bouncing around, put phone away and used my geoeyes. CIH. TFTC.

Hey Guys
So Today (8.9.16) i went out and check all my caches in the Area and this one was a bit wet. so i replace the Log with a new one and then place it in a plastic bag. so that should be all good to use again.

Enjoy
GingerGiraffe

Great idea

A.K.A GeoDudes "Gotta cachem all" TFTC easy find nice camo

Parked the car on the street as the gates to the car park were locked. Walked to GZ and had no problems in finding this cache. Signed the log and replaced as found. Thank you GingerGiraffe for placing this cache.

Found it on a sunny Anzac day while in the area. This one took a few minutes but I was relieved to find it, shame about the amount of rubbish at GZ. TFTC

Nice hide, had me searching for a while TFTC

After 3 DNF's a find yea. I am here from the states and was staying with relatives within a mile of this cache. It's our last day so I did a little walkin to get some caches in the area. I was determined not to quit till I found one. T - Aussie smiley and picture with log. L- back toward house .8 away. Nice hide. TFTC Peace

In this area you can write your own notes for the cache. This text is copied automatically to clip board when you press the Log Visit button.

We found this cache easily as we actually spotted it before reaching GZ. We found both logs but decided to sign just the one. After that had been done the cache was replaced where it had been found. Thank you for bringing us to this area and thank you for placing this cache for us and others to find.

No. 515

Parked just outside the park, and made my way over to GZ, passing no-one but a solitary council worker whipper-snippering the grass. He was far enough away from GZ that he didn't present a problem. Looked around for about half a minute before spotting the clever cache hide. I've seen its type before, and it's great. Nicely done, TFTC

I actually had a FTF attempt on this cache when it was first published, but only had 2 minutes to find since I was in a rush to get to a meeting so wasn't able to find it. Been past many times since then but only during a pre-work bike ride around Quakers Hill was I able to find the time to stop and search for this one, resulting in a fairly quick find. Good job for one of your first caches! SL TFTC GingerGiraffe!

Tftf..

Creative love it

Quick find on an afternoon local cache cleanup.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE

How the heck did I miss that one last time! It took a paf to point out the bleeding obvious...Thanks.

Out with Trodectus today for a few grabs after lunch on the harbour. Found after a bit of searching away from where GPS had GZ. TFTC

Found with Coybear2000. It took a little while, but then we spotted the tricky hide. TFTC

Today it was a hot day and found it with Everlasting and sevabo. Thanks for bringing us here.

#2403 (1 of 8 today)

Decided to head out Quaker's Hill / Schofields way for a few caches today - mop up some of the caches I'd not previously attempted.
Managed to grab eight (and DNF a few along the rail line) as well as get caught at one cache by the CO.
And this time as I was heading home I remembered to grab the nearby puzzle cache I'd solved.
[center]END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION[/center]
Arrived at the park looking to grab the four new caches here.
The car park was open, but it appeared only because there was a council worker (mowing, I think). It looked like he was just finishing up so I approached him and asked if he was locking up. He said he had intended to, but wouldn't since I was here.
Excellent.

As he packed up I walked to GZ and started the search. Took about 5 minutes of too-ing and fro-ing to finally spot it - yes it does fit in well here, easy to miss.
Looked up to see the worker and his truck had gone.

Had the park to myself so could complete signing duties and replace in peace.

Love the cache container! Can tell a lot of time & effort went into preparing this one and the placement works well here. TFTC

As I just found Hold On as an FTF I thought I'd wander over to this one, as the group-mobile was also still close by.

Walked around in a couple of circles before pouncing on GZ. I managed to retrieve the log and sign. All in good nick.

Returning the log and cache was easy as 1,2,3.

Nice job here.

Thanks for another local hide GG

From Up High Down Low walked across to this one and quickly found what I was looking for. Signed the log and returned. TFTC.

No luck here either. Did some CITO for a bit as the neighbour across the street started watching me lurk in the trees. Can't say that I blame him. Hint didn't put me any closer to finding anything. Just more rubbish. What a huge park though. Might come back another time and flash some torches around.

My TAF came to the rescue, so after lunch I returned to GZ. Despite looking several metres away previously, and expanding my search radius, I'd not found the cache before. This time though, I made the find within a few minutes. The bag is ripped and doing nothing for the log, but the log paper is still nice and dry. TFTC!

Appeared to be a large number of branches/twigs shaped like witches brooms in the area. Well, it was the day after Halloween. Concentrating on an expected camo and a previous log about co-ords, charligirl stumbled upon the hide we’d walked past several times circling the area when she spotted a giveaway blue symbol.

Found it with snoopy1976 and ris768

Streak Day #840 - Met up with dave8153 and ris768 and made a quick find. TFTC

Met up with snoopy and dave at GZ. We spread out in our search and it wasn't long before I spotted the well marked camo. Nice construction to which I am giving you a fav point. SL #2281 on streak day #1211 TFTC

28/10/15. 10:26 AM. Cache #3146. Streak day #493.
4th of 6 this morning - Prospect, Edensor Park, Merrylands, Quakers Hill & Castle Hill.

After grabbing 2TF at "Our first cache", came over here to get this pair from last week. Walked straight up to the posted coords, looked around and saw nothing standing out. Read a few past logs and wandered off in one direction thanks to TC's log.

I soon saw the type of item I'd been expecting and then a graphic that confirmed I was right on the cache. Opened up, signed and replaced as found. Walked on to "Up High, Down Low!" next. TFTC.
} : )

I had a pretty good idea of what to expect for this cache, though i still had to circle the area quite a few times before i noticed it.
Good camo.
Thanks for the cache.

Loved the camo on this cache and the effort that's gone into something that blends so well. Did the legals and replaced as found.
Cheers

I wandered about for no result, then I called over the reluctant teenage son who was sitting in the car, and still no luck...

I'm not a fan of caches close to houses.

No luck here!

With the help of my phone-a-friend I searched about five metres closer to the road and spotted the well camouflaged container.

TFTC.

*FTF* @ 1418. GPS had me jumping about for a while so I searched a few areas before that "AHA!" moment. Great camo. TFTC.

2TF- on my second look.
Rode the bike from home being 500m as the crow flies with GeoMatty as my assistant.
We both were scared away after a resident had two loose dogs approach us.
We have only spent a minute here before heading to the other new released hide.
On our second visit, I was joined by DK in the search.
Really impressed in the hide but a certain marking gave it away.
Shame about the dumping of items close to GZ, which I presume from the nearest neighbour. Thanks GingerGiraffe
