I was out today on a caching run around the area visiting Nth Richmond Glossodia,Freemans Reach and up to Kurrajong Heights.
I had an excellent day caching out here finding almost all that I searched for,
Today was extremely warm and dry with a thick smoke haze blanketing throughout however this didnt dampen the day in the slightest,
It was a huge day with many finds so a big thank you to all the COs for placing their enjoyable hides,I do apologies for my generic logs.
Thanks for the cache

Found it. Was looking in the wrong place at first though hahaha.
But just want to let you know though, that there was two idiot kids hanging around while I was looking and kept watching me, so may want to make sure it's in the spot it should be just in case.

A day out with oldmorty and marj01. An early morning drive to Lithgow then returned to Sydney via the Bells Line of Road, finding caches along the way.
Amazing old bridge. Marj01 was onto the cache in no time at all. TFTC Team Henderwick
 
25-Apr-18
Out caching with some fellow caches, being Frazeydaze, Oldmorty Great location in the old bridge. Thanks for the cache
 
25-Apr-18
Out from the eastern suburbs for a days caching with frazeydaze and marj01; the chosen area being out west and the mountains. We visited a total of forty seven caches which resulted in forty six finds with one dnf. With the exception of a handful of mountain caches the rest were park and grabs, although some required a bit of searching. It was a very enjoyable and fun filled day and thanks goes to marj01 for the organising. TFTC Team Henderwick.

The trolls must have been having a quiet Australia Day in this lovely park. I went straight to this one. It is always intriguing when I have an easy find and struggle with others that look easy.

Thanks Team Henderwick

Took us 30 minutes. But we finally found it! Yay!

Hint makes it obvious.
 
26-Dec-17
This took me awhile to find. I even looked in the hide more than once and still didn't spot it. Finally I did Razz. My Garmin had this six metres out, but the trees make coordinates tricky. I like caches in 'full' sight, but seemingly invisible. A favourite tick. TFTC Team Henderwick.
 
17-Dec-17
Out for a afternoon kayak. Fun day out bushwalking too! Thanks for the hide
 
16-Dec-17
Stopped here for a picnic lunch amd to check out the park as a launch area for kayaking. The hill will put me off it being a regular way lf getting into the river but i might be back to picnic again. Tftc

Good hiding. Took a while. Little help from geofriend( Glide) Big thanks to her. TFTC.
 
30-Oct-17
Walked across after finding 'Pine Sensation', and spotted a likely hide from the track, but I was unable to make the retrieval because those kids are still there fishing! It's a Monday, don't they have school? Thanks for the hide, Team Henderwick Smile
 
28-Oct-17
Two kids down there fishing, so no go today.

Found with the geokids and LittleSparr0w. Dropped a TB.

On the way to Richmond - detour, signed the log.
Thanks Team Henderwick for organising the cache and hunt.
Fav from me for interesting old bridge.. Smile
 
03-Aug-17
I'm back working in the area for a few weeks.
Having caught up on some well overdue online logging, I thought I'd collect a few caches I have not yet collected in North Richmond.
Having parked as near as I could to the cache coordinates, I made my way down the path to the river until I reached an area close to GZ.
As I first began my search I noticed a Muggle making his way along the path I stared out to the river and wait for him to pass.
There were lots of possible hiding spots, so I systematically search them until I finally found the one containing the treasure. SLTNLN.
Off to the near by 'Pine Sensations'

Find: 366
3rd of 4 finds for today
0 DNFs for today
Cache: Good condition
Log/Logbook: Good condition and more than 50% empty

sevabo and I were strolling down the footpath until we reached the GZ and it was interesting to see the old bridge still there then I found it. Thanks Team Henderwick for bringing us here this afternoon.
 
29-Jul-17
Wow it's old bridge and worth to visiting this area. Thanks for bringing us here
 
27-Jul-17
Loved seeing the old bridge structure. Had to wait for a passing muggle before retrieving the cache. TNLNSL. TFTC.
 
19-May-17
Parked the car and then walked to GZ. With nobody around the cache was found quickly and easily in the first place that was checked. The log was signed and the cache was replaced as found. Thank you Team Henderwick for placing this cache.

26/04/17. 1:07 PM. Cache #4967.
5th of 5 finds - Richmond, North Richmond.

Came here after avenging a former DNF at "Century 1". Decided to walk over the bridge from there. Once at GZ, my first sweep of all the hiding places revealed nothing. Using my torch and being a bit more thorough, I was more successful the second time. SL and replaced as found. Ran out of time for any more caches on this side, so I returned to the car back near "Century 1".

Time to drive home, but along the way I collected info from the first 5 train stations for "Train Spotter - Train Tripper"; be keen to get the rest some time soon. TFTC.

Nice and easy looked under too many logs though lol

Nice hide! Required a short wait while some muggles cleared the area, but had it in hand soon after.

Took a small dinosaur, left a troll doll.

TFTC!!!

#3841 (1 of 5 today)

With a furniture delivery coming sometime early this afternoon, I went out sooner rather than later, knowing I could get home in the 1 hour notice we were supposed to get from the delivery people... just. I deliberately picked an area with three close together caches - Hanna Park. Main problem here were all the council workers - gee it's very wet and boggy to cut the grass.

Well, I had no problems with the delivery time, but my wife didn't let me know soon enough to allow me to get back. So I went for an extra cache or two... or three. Only one DNF, and did a bit of maintenance on one other.

I still got to move it into place once I got home, though.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Parked in the car park - just over from the garbage truck, and made my way here.

Well this took a lot longer than it should. Checked all the spots - including the right one - but nothing sighted. Then a second go around, then...

Well let's just say that the fourth time I checked the right spot I was looking from a different angle, and then spotted it. Just a question of light and contrast.

Completed signing duties and replaced. Interesting spot.
