Hi Blackwoollydog,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm 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, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

No luck finding this cache. 4 DNFs in a row. Might be worthwhile doing a cache check.

Visiting my brother for the weekend, tagged along as he did the dad duties running my nephew to a Saturday morning class in Chatswood. Had an hour or so to kill and could either do some Chrissie shopping or see what caches may be nearby. Closest was over a km in hot sunshine but it won the toss and we headed off for a walk. GZ was a shady respite but took some time to locate the cache among the leaf litter. Nephew’s class was due to finish and we were just about to give up when my muggle-brother called the find.

What a nice spot in the burbs. Finished work at Chatswood Chase decided to go for my 1150 cache. Got to GZ and I was thinking something smaller but looked at some photos and started really searching, got there in the end. It must look awesome when the flowers are out.
 
17-Jul-20
Have the day off if work, so decided to drive around and find some caches nearby to home.

Cheers

TFTC. Been to this park a couple times and never knew about this walk. I'll be back when it's green and flowery! #61
 
02-Jun-20
Fun lovely walk!
 
24-May-20
Last of seven caches for the day.

After finding 6 other caches and going to the bike shop for a quick look, I decided to find this cache too.

The walk is very interesting and cool. I've never seen something like it.

The park was also a cool place, quite deserted due to the showers and wind.

Found the cache easily, the hint did help.

While signing the log some other kids came through here but I don't think they payed much attention.

I replaced the cache with a bit more camo.

Then I took the Wisteria Walk back to the road and got into the car just as it started raining.

TFTC - Easy Find, reminds me of something similar in Springwood Blue Mountains.

Found at twilight while on my way home from work.
It was dark at the GZ but thanks to the generous hint i didnt have any trouble finding the cache.
I was hidden from the view of a couple of kids out kicking a ball around in the fading light.
The container is in good condition and the log is dry.
Thanks.

I can only imagine how beautiful this walk is when in bloom. Tftc!

Beautiful place. Would like to return once the wisterias are in bloom, that'll be sublime. Found a likely looking spot, but wasn't confident until I looked at the hint. TFTC

I’m in the Chatswood area for work, and sauntered down to this cache after a yummy Vietnamese dinner. It was a hot and smoky night, and seemed to be getting dark earlier than I expected! By the time I arrived in this covered walk at about 7:30 it was gloomy and muggy, and I was very keen to find it and return to my air conditioned hotel... thankfully the clue was specific, although I totally needed the torch on my phone to see anything. Found intact in its snug little spot. TFTC - cheers from Melbourne

TFTC,
After a morning drive in the 1950 Riley for the club brunch run to Pie in the Sky north of Cowan, there was a chance to use the afternoon to cache the 3 Council areas on the North side of the Harbour that we have not visited.
We managed 7 finds from 10 attempts and now only need to visit 4 Council areas in the North West of the State to complete every area.
This would be a great area when in flower. Lucky to find the cache. We suspect there was some cache creep.
Visited trackables.

Geocaching with Wazza9 today after brunch. This one took a short time to find. Signed log and replaced. Thanks to Blackwoollydog.

Surprisingly difficult but found it in the end. Tftc.

I know it’s there cause someone found it a couple of days ago, sadly not our day today...

I had a DNF here a couple of years ago, but today my luck was in, I’d barely began the search before I spied the hide.
Tftc.

Such a lovely spot. Thanks for the great adventure.

Found by Nanny and Bo.
It would be a beautiful place with the wisteria in blossom
We took nothing and left nothing
We signed the log

What a secret place. How new it was here.
This was a nice little find.
Thanks Blackwoollydog for bring me to the location.

What a lovely park - thanks for introducing us!

Had to seriously think about inside vs outside for this one - I read the hint and still spent a long time rooting around in the wrong place. Found it eventually.

Found on a walk today and this one took longer then it should of. I searched and searched and finally it was found where I had been searching. Love to see this in blossom TFTC

Find #: 1,927
Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Warm spring afternoon

My elder 2 children both had a violin lesson nearby. I needed to drop my son off at the station after his lesson (they were sequential), and on the way back to pick up the rest of the crew decided to stop off here as I had some time. I parked about 3m from GZ, which I soon realised meant 40m and once at the right spot I made a quick find due to the helpful hint. TNLNSL, thanks for sharing this interesting park.
 
21-Oct-18
Found after 10 minutes or so of searching. Was heavily covered in leaf litter from what I can assume to be a few months of accumulation. Very beautiful little walk, didn't know of this gem of a park until now
 
30-Jul-18
The clue was a good one. Explained it perfectly. TFTC
 
27-Jun-18
Driving through unfamiliar streets, we happened to park really close to this cache and a short walk took us to GZ, where a thorough search through very wet surrounds showed me part of the container. After logging we headed straight back to the warm and dry car. Thanks Blackwoolydog for a good hide, though I reckon this would look much better in spring.
 
20-May-18
Was in the area with the GeoWife, LucasSmurf & RileySmurf. Saw the park area on the way to where we were going and decided to drop back for a play afterwards. Had a quick look for any nearby caches and Bingo this one was only metres away. Took a little to locate it and the clue definatly helped as I was running short on time - and patience from the GeoWife..

After my first cache on the Long Gully Bridge, I wanted to find some more. Pilot03 took me to a magic path all covered with wisteria but no flowers left, another adventure. Not easy to find but luckily we had some gloves.
TFTC Smile

I took AMMMGLAD to Wisteria Walk, so excited after finding her first cache that we went for another one. A bit of a ‘Sleeping Beauty’ place, quite overgrown. I put gloves on to search the cache, which was a good idea.
Thank you for the placement, only a couple of flowers left.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Greetings from England Smile

Was passing this park on my way home so I seized this opportunity to grab a cache and I'm really glad I did. This park is awesome! I loved the Wisteria walk. Despite being close to a main road, it was a really calm and peaceful spot- great place to wind down after work! Found GZ and after a search on my hands and knees, I felt the cache and had it in my hot little hands. I'm giving this a favourite point for the park itself. Cache# 430 TFTC

Hello from the USA! I am here on a two week missions trip and today I was in the area handing out church invitations so of course I had to grab the nearby cache. I've never been through a wisteria path before. I'm happy to say the cache was an quick find and hidden well. This is my second find here in Australia. Tftc!

F.I.! (Found It) As usual space travel is not necessary. It is on earth.. Looks like a test tube. Lots of plastic wrappers in ground around it. Not buried
