I notice a new player has posted a "Needs Archive" log on this one so we'll start the ball rolling with a request for the CO to check out their hide and report back on its status. We'll wait a month and see if there's any response.
No luck today. Even with the help of previous pics, we left empty handed.
Beautiful park though! Thanks for bringing us here!

What a world it would be if we all had secret parks like this in our backyards - so beautiful! Thanks for introducing us to this little hideaway.
The logbook is a little mouldy, possibly due to a little crack in the container that is preventing us from sealing, but dry enough for us to sign.

Not convinced it was here when I came last time because I found it in two seconds. Tftc
It was a very wet day but I set off up the track anyway and was soon at GZ. I checked the item directly there without luck but found the cache at another nearby item. It was not well hidden, there were a number of better places, but I returned the cache exactly as and where found. Thanks to The Motors for the hide.
Our first ever find. Walked here from home in the rain. A bit more difficult that I thought but Paddy came through.
Second time here, finally found it!!! Raining today so no muggles around. As per hint.
I know I was looking in the right place, I just couldn't seem to get this one

Happy International Geocaching Day 2018!
After returning home from watching a sensational Sydney Swans victory (a come from behind, underdog win) against the Greater Western Sydney Giants over at Sydney Olympic Park, I needed a quick find for the digital souvenir to celebrate International Geocaching Day.
'Ticket of Leave Park' (GLWR9N8Y) in Killara looked promising. I made my way over and took the entrance to the park on Coronga Crescent and followed the compass all the way to the playground. Being after dark, the park was empty, but I still had to be stealth due to the occupants of the surrounding houses. After a bit of searching, I soon had the Cache In Hand and the digital souvenir for International Geocaching Day was secured for another year.
Thanks For The Cache The Motors.

I have gained a ticket of leave from one of Calypso62 caches in Sydney CBD. As a free man I visited this park.
Cache needs new log.

I like others dont like these playground caches lucky for me the park was empty. I used a photo from a previous log to locate the cache. TFTC
A bit hard to find the park in the first place. As with others I am not comfortable with where this hide is located. Plenty of other places to hide it here.
I must admit I circled GZ before realising where I needed to be. I saw it from a short distance away. How did I miss it on the first lap?! TFTC!
Came out despite the rain today. I had an idea of where to look but a search turned up nothing. Checked a few more areas but still nothing. Retracing my steps had my find it it in the first place I looked, however it is quite exposed. Still, after signing log I put back as I found it. Hoping CO can come take a look. Cache# 602 TFTC
Tftc, hanging out with a friend for the day, and this was a quick cache on the way there. Luckily the park was empty and I had it to myself.
Took the day off work to attend the funeral of a childhood friend. I planned my travels for much caching both before and after. Lucky for me that there were no children playing today. I feel like a creep when it comes to caches in playgrounds.
Despite the onset of daylight savings time, night had well and truly fallen by the time I arrived at the gz. Fortunately I had my torch and the park was empty. A fairly quick find after reading the logs and hint.

Previously logged under team account BoogieRogue. Re-logging with my individual account. Quickly found it on a trip collecting in Lindfield and West Pymble. TFTC.
Wow beautiful small park area. Good hide spot. Signed the log as EV. Thanks for the cache and hunt
Actually found this one a while back but forgot to log it.
Having heard that this one might be a bit on the trickier side due to its location, decided to head here at night after a late night dash to Officeworks.
Once at GZ we had the place to ourselves armed with phone torches and trying to not draw too much attention to ourselves from neighbouring properties we made the quick find.
Would be tricky during the day. Cache is in good condition
Thanks

We are enjoying an unintentional tour of The Motors parks series on this fine Sunday afternoon. And for the second time today we ran into brand new geocacher, Claudia, and her parents. We found the container in a clever spot and were happy no muggles were around. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
Have been meaning to find this one for a while. Grew it in the area and never knew this park existed. Took Geograndma and Geograndad with us for their first time caching. The boys had fun in the park and Geoson made a quick find. SL, thanks for bringing us to a park we never knew existed and TFTC.
I really dislike playground cache hides, and today was one of the reasons why.
Lots of cachers are like me, that is, solo male cachers, and we get lots of strange looks at these types of hides if there are little kids about with their parents. That is what happened here today, and there were lots of spots well away from the equipment that could have been used instead.

Found it after a bit of a search. Unfortunately there was no pencil inside so we couldn't sign the log
#273. A nice quick find today to get the 3 milllion geocaches souvenir. A lovely area - TFTC!
I remember coming here a couple of years ago but the cache had gone missing. Passing again today and glad to log a smiley. TFTC
Second time in this park finding a cache. Second spot I checked. Sadly last for the day!?!

Cool hide in a Park.
First visit to Australia, visiting our oldest daughter who lives in St Ives, Sydney. What a wonderful country! We are having the most beautiful weather. Reminds us of South Africa, our homeland.
Thank you for the cache and bringing this wonderful place to our attention.
Such a beautiful area.
Best regards ...
Greetings from South Africa.

If I hadn't gone to find this geocache, I would never have found this little, sweet park! Great spot to hide a cache, Thank you!

Walking up from Coronga Crescent I arrived at a secluded, secret park. Some of the houses around the park are gorgeous. It was quiet, and no one in sight, so I had no problem loving the equipment and coming up with the cache.
Thanks Motors!

Another lovely hidden public space. I wouldn't normally attempt such hides but as there was no one about I plucked up the courage. Thanks again The Motors.
Stopped off on my way out to the Amateur Radio NSW (HAM Radio) bi-monthly Trash & Treasure sale at Quarry Road Dural, to pick up this one. 1st of 11 finds for the day.
Took a while to find the entrance to this little hidden park, having to do a full lap around the streets that encircle the park before finally spotting the entry laneway off Fiddens Wharf Road. Parked at the laneway entrance and headed on into the park. Being nice & early the park was totally deserted and I was able to quickly locate the micro cache container, with some guidance from the helpful hint. Signed the log sheet and then replaced as found.

A beautiful Sunday demands some geocaching action. After visiting the caches around Middle Cove, decided to picked off a few other "still to finds". Tally for the day, 16 finds, 0 DNF.

This is the 15th find of the day. What an amazing 'exclusive' park. Luckily, not a muggle insight despite this beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon.

Number 4! A lovely place. No muggles whilst we were searching. Handy having geokiddies as I understand comments from previous logs. TFTC.
A week or so ago we went for this cache, but when arriving in the park there was a group of muggles playing with the equipment.
Today the park was empty and allowed for the required search to find the cache. The only disturbance was from a minimal dog in a neighbouring garden who tried to scare me off with his yelping.
I am not a big fan of hides in this kind of playgrounds. Actually, last time searching for a cache in a playground ended up with me being reported to the police by a concerned member of the public.

I had some time between jobs so thought I'd stop by for a quick find. I'm not normally a fan of hides in this type of area but luckily, there were no muggles in the park or indeed in any backyard. I had actually scoped out this park for a hide myself but never quite got around to it. My phone took me to the equipment and I began the search. Nope! Not on the first one. Nope! Not on the second one! Checked out the third one but no luck in the first place I searched. I was beginning to become frustrated. I checked the next spot and luckily, my hand fell upon the micro container. I do like the way heat shrink has been used here. Makes for a neater job. Thanks The Motors for the hide and adding to my global geocaching experiences. Cheers.

Luceygoose took too long reading previous logs so I decided to rush up and find it. Sat down next to her and casually said "isn't it fun when you find the cache before the other person has started looking?". She wasn't too impressed, but happy that we found it. Fantastic spot - tftc!

Drove around Coronga Cres but missed the entry point the first time around. Looked at a different map - ah there it is. What a cool park for all of the surrounding residents. Took a seat at the nearby bench to plan my route of attack and check if there were any observing muggles in the nearby houses. Coast looked clear so inspected the first piece of equipment. Wasn't in the spot I was expecting so was ready to move to the next item when I spotted something slightly out of place. What do you know - it's a cache. SL and returned to its hiding spot.

#3040 - mmm, tricky, especially with a *nuggle* (neighbour muggle) setting up and moving his sprinkler to almost wetting distance of the playground. Time for an apple and a relax on the seat. Now the coast is clear, time for a sniff around, no other muggles about with the *geobike* keeping watch. Checked the obvious, nope, ....but wait, that's a bit strange....yep, well done cache owner. You are a magician and worthy of a favourite point. Many thanks to the CO ***The Motors*** for establishing and maintaining this perfect cache.

Just the one today, late in the afternoon.
What a lovely little park. And only one muggle in a nearby house to worry about. She made the search longer and more disjointed than it should have been - at least that's my excuse for missing it the first time around! By the time I found it I'd almost lost the sunlight.
Clever placement of a very inconspicuous container in the first spot I checked - but not the last.
