Found with kingfisherau while in the area for the weekend. Easily found and cache in good shape. Very busy road at this time of day. Beautiful maintained cemetery. Visited some tbs on hand.
Picked this up as we continued our journey north. Turned out to be the only one I found that day.
Thanks

We continued today our tour in NewSouthWales, AUS, and thereby searched, found and logged this interesting Traditional-Cache.
The weather was - said in one word – simply best. The good hidden caches and the being on holidays kept us the whole day in a good mood.
The cache had good coordinates, and thus was easy to find. The logbook was okay, and allowed easy logging.
Thanks to *JOSHWA27* for the generation of this nice cache Hartley Cemetery (with the proper agenda), for leading us here and for showing us this funny location as well as the ongoing maintenance of this cache.
PS: Please forgive us the uniform log which is needed due to timing problems - if necessary special actions and happenings are there described where they appeared.
Greetings from Germany together with the hope to meet somewhere like event or wood.

just checking through my to log list, found this some time ago with storeyteller but I forgot to log. TFTC 
OCW Irondale today and we decided on Hartley as we have not extensively cached here before.
We had a good look around the cemetery here and some of the graves of relatives. The policeman’s grave has had some interesting weathering and the gravestone had a sad story. TFTC

It was a bit cold for the rest of the family to head out this afternoon, so Samuel and I headed out with a handful of caches planned, 'we'll turn around when we run out of light' as we went....
A quick find here, we managed to sign while our fingers still worked in the cold... TFTC

TFTCAfter running out of caches to do on our list, we headed down the mountain to this one and nabbed a few others in the area, nice spot in the freezing cold!

Interesting location. Always fascinating to visit locations such as these. Unable to sign sure to wet paper inside
We are on a cachey 10 day holiday, starting off with 2 nights at Emu Plains to hopefully collect the new GFA puzzle caches around Luddenham and some more of the Band caches north of Penrith. Then it’s 5 nights at Oberon to collect some of the many new & old puzzle caches that we have solved around the area, and also hoping to complete the Oberon Adventure Lab. After leaving Oberon we will be visiting Jenolan Caves, for both the caves and the Jenolan EarthCache, then heading to Katoomba for 2 nights to ride the Scenic World attractions (Railway, Cableway, & Skyway) and to do a few caches of various types plus an Adventure Lab. We will end the holiday with a stop-off at Wentworth Falls for some more caches and a couple of Adventure Labs.
Today we will be visiting Jenolan Caves, for both the caves and the Jenolan EarthCache, then heading to Katoomba, with a brief stop-off at Hartley Cemetery for a Traditional cache. This was our 2nd find of the day (day
, and 165th find of the holiday.
After our visit to Jenolan Caves we stopped off at Hartley Cemetery for this one. I was struggling to spot it, but the family's chief puzzle solver's superior eyesight soon spied it and had CIH. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. Log was wet, but we signed it the best we could.
We would normally have had a look around the cemetery before leaving, but today we had a deadline to be at Katoomba by 5:00pm. TFTC Joshwa27.

Found It!
A quick find here while passing by. I found the cache on the ground in the open so put it back where the hint suggested it should be, looks like it just fell out of the hole.

Pit stop on the way to Bathurst. My second attempt at this one and a quick find. Either it was MIA last time or I was having a shocker of a day. TFTC
Paid our respects and completed logging duties. A lovely well maintained cemetery. Tftc JOSHWA27
Day 3. No.12 for the day on our Geo Adventure of the Blue Mountains. This was found alongside with my Geo Companion, Mystic Seer. Nice hide, cache is in good condition and with CIH it was time to sign the Log. Replaced as found ready for the next Geo Adventurer.
Thanks Joshwa27 for bringing us to this location.

Found with Chippyddd on Day 3 mission - Blue Mountains NSW caches. Lots of rain today. Hint is very useful for a sneaky hide. Both cache and logbook are dry. SL TFTC TFTH. Replaced cache as found ready for the next cacher. Thanks and cache on.
Our final stop for the day and we then treated ourselves to some lollies as a reward for effort. Great cemetery. TFTC
Co-ords were a little out but the cache was on full display so easy to spot - we managed to conceal it a bit better when putting the log back. TFTC

Headed to the Blue Mountains for the weekend with the family, and today we decided to get out and find a few nearby caches.
This was a lovely little cemetery, and one which we have passed by so many times before, so today was the day to pay it a visit. Having the kids with us, they were extremely curious about some of the older graves, and the larger crypts. Always sad to see so many children in these sorts of places.

This has to be one of the most amazing cemeteries I’ve visited. The Diphtheria epidemic that ran through the area took so many young people. Incredibly sad. Thanks so much for placing this cache in a great little spot.
That took way longer than it should have !! GPS didn't like being under the trees
Thanks for the cache

We camped at the Wallace Lakes rest area with the caravan, found a spot where we would not get bogged in with the copious rain we had experienced. This morning dawned foggy but with signs the sun would make an appearance. We started early and loved the scenery as we travelled the area. Nice cache and hide. Thanks to Joshwa27 for hiding this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.
Nice spot and what a fabulous little cemetery. Good start to exploring some caches in this valley. Tftc
Easy find
On the very last day of the final leg heading home from the 17th National Caravan Rally in Albany.
Thank you
