Night search Horsley, New South Wales, Australia
By TheBryantBoys on 24-Oct-15. Waypoint GC65QBN

Dont know if I found the lid of it or not

No luck, had to do some gardening spiky plants

Retrieved log for maintenance - handed to GEOJoh. TFTC!

Water damaged so moved under a little cover

Found surprisingly fast

Found it on top of the rocks without it's camouflage, probably needs a repair

Had to cheat and look at some pictures turns out it was obscured by broken glass so be careful.

Log too wet to sign so I added a new one and took a photo. TFTC

Very quick look but dog barking pit me off. Poked his head over the fence too, didn’t want to mess with that one!

Geopartner Found it. Couldn’t sign log as it was very wet. Will need replacing TFTC

Found it

Found and replaced. Tftc!

Nice camo

Fond it! Tftc!

Found it this time. Just happened to see the sneaky camo. Using a torch in daylight didn't really help directly. Although, indirectly it may have helped, as we focussed more carefully on a small area at a time. TFTC TheBryantBoys

Found it..actually found two?? Right next to each other. Took a punt and signed one log. TFTC

The log is a little soggy. Tftc

So smart my fav so far

Had a very quick look during the day with no luck. Came back at night and found it. Tftc

Tftc

Tftc. Quick find today.

After a couple of minutes of working out the GZ one of the geo kids gives the old “found it”, pen in car as usual, without the geokids I think I would have been looking for a while

Another DNF, 3rd one I think!

Spent a couple hours over a few days looking for this one. FINALLY found it in day ligh

Couldnt find it will have to come back tomorrow to look again

TFTC...Super cool find

Fresh cache in place

Thanks for the fun cache.
A past log certainly helped and coming at the right time was also a lifesaver.
I think I had a DNF on this 4 or 5 years ago so it was great to eyeball the hide and grab some unloved months.
Thanks
IP

Finally found this one... looked in the exact spot numerous times before but must be more exposed now. Tftc

Finally found it after many looks on our walks past. Creative hide!

Took 6min to find success this time TFTC

Literally thought it was a bit of rubbish. Good find

Great hide! Thanks

Checked and it’s still there. Check back left corner

Too well hidden for us in the middle of the day. TFTH

DNF searches for 20 mins, up down and around. Will be back at dark to give it another go

Another search both day and night after owner maintained but still came up empty handed....

Replaced cache

Have to tackle this one at night

The barking dog made us move on. We'll be back.

Had a good look, couldn’t find it, will try at night one day

Happy to tick this one off at last. I had a pretty clear idea of what to look for and where but it took the confirmation of a PAF to get me finally uncovering it. I don't think it was findable as intended so I put it back in the same spot and still camouflaged but not completely obscured. TFTC!

Been here both day and night.... either it’s missing or I’m missing something

Even after a paf who told me what I was looking for, another DNF!

Decided to tackle this while at a nearby cache, I was hopeful that attempting this during daylight would not spoil my chances of receiving that smiley. After a quick search cache was soon in hand. Very clever clever camo

Tftc

Oh, what a bane this one had become!! I have lost count of the times I have searched here but today was happiest of tail wag finds!! I don't recall what caught my eye but this gets a favourite. TFTC!

I stepped back to look and up pops StumbleTrip with a grin on her face and her tail wagging! This one had been driving her crazy. Tftc. Clever hide

Very good, loved that little challenge. Tftc

I liked the creativity of this one

I tried this one in daylight, and had no luck...

Wow awesome cache! Spent ages one day looking to no avail. Came back at night and found it straight away. TFTC!

This looked fantastic in the dark but too cold tonight to stay longer than we needed to.
Thanks for the adventure BryantBoys.

Found in daylight. Would be simple at night tftc

Dnf. Its a bit overgrown here. Not sure if that impacts the cache. Will try again at night and hope its more obvious.

After finding a B. B. cache nearby I thought "Its a night cache"..and then "what the heck, I'll give it a go in daylight". Took me a bit of searching with the clue in mind. But soon I was rewarded with a find. I think I can guess what this may look like at night and hope I didn't spoil the fun. TFTC TheBryantBoys. Nice work.

Awesome. Tftc

Found quickly after 1 lap of the object,I would like to see how it looks at night,good one !!
TFTC

Found on a sunny Sunday after a bit of looking around. Can see why it would be easier at night! TFTC

Just as we were about to leave i spotted something the same but different. Thankyou for the cache

Out caching with cullum68 on a lovely sunny day thanks for the cache

Finally one of the caches in the area done. Still needed a P AF though. TFTC!

I made it harder then it should of been

found in the middle of the day no need to come at night thanks for hide

A nice cache to find at nighttime

TFTC
In the area with some time, why not grab a couple of freshly replaced caches. Wow, this one was tricky... night time would be so much easier....
Cheers

Replayed cache and will be ready to go on the 1.4.2017

No response from CO, and its missing, so time to go.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

{#d8d23fa24dddc564dabe499dfd1db003}

CO states cache is missing... please replace or disable.

No luck for us here today.

I think my night cache is MIA. It's not where it should be. Keep looking, I hope someone finds it. In the meantime I'll try and replace it.

Came by tonight for another go but couldn't spot anything particularly standing out by torchlight. I hung around for a while but began to feel a bit like the midnight rambler prowling around out here so called it a night. TFTC anyway!

No luck today - but it is full sun at the moment. Intriguing.. TFTC anyway!

Found it at day but we couldn't get out the log

Found!
Nice and tricky!
No hope of getting log out? Tweezers might help.
Did not sign, have taken photo to send to cache owner.
Tftc

OMFG! How bloody hard was that. Anyone attempting this and reading these log entries, do yourself a favour and do it at night. I assure you it would be SO MUCH EASIER!!! Great hide and in good condition. TFTC!!!

Out for a morning drive with Juno scooping up some of the new hides in the area.

I wasn't sure what chances I'd have here in the middle of the day, but decided to give it a crack anyway. A methodical search for the kind of hide I expected turned up the cache in under ten minutes.


Cheers

Wow, this was a tuff call. Tried really hard to find it. Had to get a hint and found it on the second attempt today. TFTC.

Was really tough so used a get out of jail free card!!! PAF (Thanks for additional clue) would like to do some night caching oneday it looks like fun. TFTC

Back again and as I wouldn't have a chance to do it at night it was another daytime look.
Only there for 5 mins or so before something caught my eye and there it was. Very small but would be so much easier to do at night.
Placed container back and put camo back on top.

TFTC

Ironbark.

Recon’d this one a few weeks ago to see what I’d be up against when I needed a quick local grab but seeing the size and options, decided it may not be as quick as I’d hoped to rely on it to tick a day off the calendar, especially at night when it would be too late to move on to a backup cache if I failed. In the area for dinner with friends tonight figured I’d do recon again with a better idea of what I suspected and while it would have been possible with full sun, it was more fun to do it at night so crossed it off the list while here.

Heading out to find my last cache of 2015 I made an early attempt on this one hoping the dimming skies would be enough to find this one.
I soon spotted something that wasn't right but was very clever, unfortunately the container was intact with the camo but was directly underneath. The log was soon signed and the cache placed directly under the camo.
Thanks

Limited for time but extended it to 20 minutes but still no find but kept being interrupted by passers by.
Tough one but I will be back.
Ironbark.

Girls had a wide game with the Dapto scouts and I had time to spare, so why not quicklyt pick up this one.
Did I say quickly? Geez this one almost got the better of me! Took almost 45 minutes before my eye spotted the odd thing in the area! A novelty indeed.

First geocaching day after finishing another year of uni!
Thought I'd keep chipping away at the 50km radius
Accompanied by Gaia/Aether

Last one of the night.
Wow, what a little blighter!

Definitely a night cache
Definitely a tricky one - I'm sure you'll get plenty of DNF/Maintenance logs because it is so tricky.

Definitely a new type of hide for me. I have seen similar, but never thought they'd make their way into the Illawarra.

After 30m search I came up with the find!

Thanks TheBryantBoys for a tricky, yet interesting cache.

A favourite point from me.

Wow this is a tough one - 2 of us looking and brainstorming for a long time and still didn't come out with the cache. Will try again soon. I hate having to leave with a DNF but this one wasn't meant to be easy.

We expected this to be a hard find as the info said but were determined for a find. Sadly this was not the case. After quite sometime we had to log a DNF. We will try again soon.

Sorry, coordinates were off. New coordinates listed here...

With the new updated coordinates a search was made much easier after a fail attempt earlier today, we haven't seen one of these before, aah... Now we get it. A *FTF* for us. TFTC
