Logs
No longer there. A few improvements to the entrance of this reserve. My partner SurdiVisio was here today and he cant find it either.
Was here 3 weeks ago in pitch dark after nightfall. Almost fall off so now its daylight at 7pm. Ah, a little swamp / muddy ground. Walked around a bit and theres a creek that you can see 40 metres to the north. SLTNLN with TBs Canadian Flag, Swiss Duck, Pittiplatsc, Corona Express Cruise Ship and Bierkrug in tow.
Nice quiet find. TftcThanks for the little treat, my 5yr old was very excited to find it
TFTC. Nearby homeowner, a muggle, came out to enquire about our activity. Apparently has noticed previous geocachers
On our way home from the mountains and oldmorty and I made a detour south of the M4 to find a few more caches in the area.
Quick park and grab.

Hardest part was because we came down the wrong road !! Tftc easy find at gz. Found with Storeyteller and the shoeiiz
Nice place to stop, choose a book and read in the sun...and to find this cache!
Today's Anzac Day and there's an event to celebrate/remember in a park beside the Nepean River in Regentville/ Mulgoa.
I've never been there before so I decided to come out early, grab a few caches and have a look round the area. It's really a lovely area!
I wonder how it fared during the recent floods?
I drove down the street towards GZ.
No!!!
I was horrified to see a family with small children riding their bikes around the spot I was heading for. I drove slowly and carefully parked the geomobile and as luck would have it the decided to cycle off. In the meantime I could see a muggle in the nearby house watching so I got out and took my Street Directory and tried to make look like I was expecting the street to go through and so was lost.
She lost interest and I grabbed the cache, signed the log and headed off for the event.

A early rise and drive to get to the Penrith lakes parkrun, then some nice caching on the other side of the Nepean River.

Just catching up on logs. Google maps was having a bit of a whack moment with the storm I think, as it sent us to the wrong spot on this road. After consulting the app, we saw where we needed to be and then it really was a quick park and grab. TFTC!
OCW the Bebes. Nice quick park and grab. There is a bid sign ‘beware of of the snakes’ so glad we didn’t wonder too far. Tftc

Time for another day chasing mint tins with marj01. With a predawn start we headed from the eastern suburbs out west to Penrith. We started caching at Wallacia and made our way north through the suburbs to Jordan Springs. We had lots of finds which included trads, multis and mysteries; also some dnfs that were too well hidden for us to find or weren't there. I lost count on the number of mint tins found but there certainly wasn't an oversupply. Thanks to all the CO's for placing their caches and TFTC

We have travelled from Sydney’s Northern Beaches to Penrith for a short three day caching holiday, staying in a park cabin at the Gateway Lifestyle Nepean Shores Holiday Park, and planning on exploring the areas around Penrith, Regentville, Jamisontown, Emu Plains, Lapstone, and Glenbrook. Will also be keeping an eye out for our final Hidden Creature, the World Turtle, whilst out on the caching trail. This was our 7th find of the day, and 7th find of the holiday.
After finding a few caches around Regentsville this was to be our last one before lunch. Parked the geomobile at the end of Martin Street and then headed the short distance over to GZ for a nice quick find, ever mindful of the nearby snake warning sign. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC Ev4d.

Geosenses led me straight to it. Nice hide and glad I didn't have to venture near the 'beware of snakes' sign! Tftc!
Heading up the mountains for a full day’s agenda, started out with an easy grab to get the mojo going. Glad I didn’t have to venture too far towards the “beware snakes” sign!
14304. Found while in Penrith for a work visit.
Headed out after work today for a number of caches. Next one for the day. Parked near GZ and wandered over for a quick find. Signed the log, returned the cache, then headed off to the next one.
Thanks Ev4d !!

This cache appeared very quickly as it was located in a very popular type of hiding place. The area was quiet so the log was signed with nobody to observe what was happening. All was replaced as found before we left. Thanks go to Ev4d for another cache placement.
Had no problems in finding this cache. 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 Ev4d for placing this cache.
TFTC having lived in this area for many years I can't remember having ever driven on Martin Rd before. We'll be back some other day to explore this reserve.

Quick find. Thought I'd stop on the way through after an adventure in the Blue Mountains. Beautiful day for it!!
Nice and easy find for my cache of the day. TFTC =) Found with Pizza_Steve
Our premium membership expired at the end of 2016 and we had been slack in renewing it, but decided it was necessary for this cache.
Why is this cache worth renewing your membership for, you ask? Benzito was doing bushcare work here today and accidentally spotted what appeared to be a geocache hidden in a pretty cache-y kind of spot. Turns out he was right.
So TFT(accidental)C ev4d.
Little side note: the volunteer bushcare group meets here on the second Sunday of every month, 8am-midday, if you're interested in improving the bushland along Schoolhouse Creek.

Quick find as a large TNT truck tried to do a u-turn whilst my car was parked in it's path at GZ.
Thanks for the hide
