I noticed that this cache has been temporarily disabled for a period of time well in excess of the period of "a few weeks" as contemplated by the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other caches from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it (using the *archive listing* link in the upper right) so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location.

If you plan on repairing this cache, **please log a note to the cache** (not email) within the next 28 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication. 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.

Our apologies with this one we have been away for an extended period we will replace the container in the next week or so.

We will replace in the next day or two. Having manufactured a new container.

We have had a spat of caches go missing unfortunately this one went too.
Disabled so we can replace very soon. Watch this space.

We arrived here with numbers at the ready and excited to look for a cache at Doctor Jim Reserve. Our brother-in-law is Doctor Jim too! Unfortunately all we found was a set of unit keys and an empty hole. Oh well. Will watch with interest. Cheers... Gaztek

Like some others, got the numbers, but couldnt open the cache.

I was on a mission today, targeting caches with 10 or more favourite points & puzzles, toe get points towards the planetary pursuit challenge.

External camo is a bit battered, but inside works just fine. Nice quick find. I see someone has put some multi-gym equipment in the park too. TFTC

Caching day with my crew! TFTC

Although the camo was a little damaged, this cache was found in good order. Geo-gangstas did his best to fix it up before we left. Nice little hide. TFTC

A nice and easy find whilst out for a walk.
Thank you for the cache
Team sissifalke
Very nice box

No problems spotting the cache it was then a case of how to open it. Time to read up and then dial in some numbers to make the find and sign the log. TFTC

a quick refresh for the new year

It’s been awhile since we came and did a maintenance check on Jim Doctor. So being in the area, we thought we’d come round and tidy things up.

Such a cool cache. Tftc. Fave point.

Well made and in good condition. fave point from me.

Great cache. My favourite so far. Thanks!

We saw the cache as soon as we got near GZ and had already worked out the code numbers needed to open the container. Cache worked easily and gave us the log sheet that we needed to sign. This was done and all was replaced and relocked before we got back to vertical again. Thank to the 2bois for a fun cache (and creative), which is a bit different to the usual. It is getting a favourite point from us.

I had worked out how to access this before I left home, so it was a quick find and sign at GZ. No problems with this cache. Nice cache. TFTC 2bois.

Working this way today and had a little bit of spare time to grab a couple of caches. As it's the treasure hunt this week, I had to grab at least one. I did manage to grab a couple extra. Logged with the permission of CO. TFTC

Sneaky access to this cache it took a couple of goes to gain entry . 1st we have seen of this type. TFTC.

Found it quickly however unable to open it. I'm sure I have the right numbers but no matter what I tried, it wouldn't open.

Feeling frustrated.

Hooray, we did it. Took many many attempts and we actually left the cache when I receive a message with some great Intel from the CO. I'm very grateful as my son and I were rather frustrated by not being able to open it
We took the tb, and my son took a pathtag. Will move both on as I think I already have this particular pathtag.
Awesome cache, very well made. Loved it... Favourite point worthy.

#3320 - Revisited the site tonight armed with some valuable guidance from the helpful CO. It certainly is a peaceful park at night. The cache located and tried the magic. Whoa, out it springs. Brought much happiness to open this one. So I place inside a travel Bug gathered a few weeks ago. Impressive construction. Many thanks to the CO **2bois** in establishing, setting up and maintaining this cache as well as giving some helpful guidance. Cheers. Worthy of a favourite point.

Cycled out here tonight. Found the structure but unable to open. Will have to contact the CO

A very nice cache, hidden very well and not a bad size either.

Left a gift for the next finder.

TFTC.

Fav point

Spotted the cache quickly and had the right combination of numbers - however l had the hardest time in getting the log!! Eventually got it, signed and replaced as found - very clever cache! Will award it a favourite point =) TFTC!

We didn't realise what was involved with this one until we arrived and read the description and hint. Thankfully, the first combination we tried worked. We were impressed with the construction here. Thanks, a favourite from me.

We liked the setup here. The cache was quickly found but then we had to work out the next step, which was not too onerous as YGAT suggested a number and it worked! Great work, thanks 2bois.

Amazing cache. Loved the use of a code.

I had figured out the code number but no luck then a few mins later. I met Geopseud0. Finally He opened the cache. Thanks him for helping.

Second time lucky. The same code used in my previous DNF seemed to work today. Met another cacher at GZ

The locking mechanism made us second guess what we thought the code was all and all a very clever cache.

First find of the day, loved the container.

I took return trip to Acacia Gardens to try to rectify some DNFs and survey the location of some other caches to fill some calendar vacancies. This one was found first.
TFTC

My first find. A good fun way to learn more about the area I live in.
Cache was in good condition.

Well! That's a nice way to force cachers to read the description. Made my way to GZ and saw something that needed investigating, OK what next? Ahhh! I need to read the description and I soon had the knowledge to open the cache. Did the legals and replaced as found. TFTCM

This was close enough to home that I decided to have a go at it. Fairly easy to get to and a very interesting western suburbs cache! The cache was in very good condition when I found it and it looked like it had room for a small Geocoin or TB (ideally a flat one). Had none on my person at that time but I might endeavour to drop one in if I have time and if this little gem is visited frequently enough. Thanks for the hide!

Noticed this one on my map, and thought I'd check it out to try and keep a small streak alive. Easy find, good workmanship.

When i first read the cache description i pictured it to be outside a Dr Jim's surgery/building. Quite relieved to see that i was wrong.
Thanks for the cache.

It was a simple find but enjoyable because of its uniqueness. TFTC

#3232 (3 of 4 today)

After decoding the *Mission GC* code this morning, I decided on a few finds today - and so found more than I usually do on a Saturday and then more plunder tomorrow in the Shire will hopefully follow.

The Geowife has gone up the Central Coast, and two out of three Geosons are also out.
So leaving Geoson #1 & girlfriend at home, I went for four a bit west of home, and found all four.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Well, it was a nice quick find after arriving at this pleasant but deserted park. Mind you, I constantly had the feeling I was being watched from one of the many first floor windows...

Hmmm, not what I was expecting. I'd already read the cache description, but not the hint. Went there and soon had what I needed to access the log.
Completed signing duties and then as I was leaving got a disturbing message, which got worse as I arrived at my next target. I need a good walk now.

I've been so busy chasing pokemons that I've been slack in logging my cache finds. Today is the first day back at work with the school kiddies and so I wanted to find a cache on the way home. Very happy for a new local cache in the area. I really liked this cache so I am awarding it a fav point. SL #2610 on streak day #1475 TFTC

Spotted from a distance, but getting into the container took a bit longer. Enjoyed this one as a bit different from the others.

Got there in the end. Took a while to get in.

Congrats to Blundo Busters on ftf. This is the first in or our out west caches. You can look forward to some more entertaining and out of the ordinary caches and we hope to challenge some.

Aussie was busy so I left him to go find a cache. Located this quite quickly. Tried 4 different ways then gave up. While I was driving home I had a brain wave......so i grabbed Aussie and headed back to test my theory out. Bingo ....yes keep it simple. It's not rocket science. Tftc SL couldn't give a favourite point but Well done.

Out with snoopy1976 today and this was our closet as time was an essence today. Easy find and a quick unlocking. TFTC

Streak Day #1101 - Needed a quick find between packing up the house and this was too easy. TFTC

Favourite point failed. Have deleted my entry until I can fix the favourite point

#774 found this one early in the morning when it was 2° not much fun touching with cold fingers but eventually got to the log. Signed the log and replaced as found. Thanks for the cache 2bois well worked.

Just a quick check since install.

Cheers cobber !

Wow TFTC. - camo was awesome - we overthought the clue and looked for patterns in the description - we should've thought simpler !

Found it!

11/7/16. 3:57 PM. Cache #4012,
1 find - Blacktown.

I had a bit of work to do at home today, so didn't head out for a cache until quite late. This fairly recent cache looked like a suitable target. Quite a fair ways west from the other 2bois caches that I've found!

As I walked across the park, I checked the hint and then went to the description, so that I could memorise what I needed. The coords were spot on, because as soon as I got there, I found what I needed. I got down low, used the numbers I needed and then had the log book in hand. I signed, replaced and then left things as 0666; consider it my 'calling card'.

I chased down a Caterpie, a Spearrow and a Zubat before heading for home. TFTC.
} : )

A simple find but the locking mechanism took many, many attempts to open. I had to confirm the code with s previous finder in order to keep trying.

TFTC.

Out visiting grand kids and arrived at GZ with them. They have never heard of caching and we needed help.
Sent a cache page message to a previous cacher who may help us and he responded an hour later.
By that time we walked back to my sons house with a DNF and Martin cousins was on his way.
We visited GZ again with grand kids this time and glad to meet MC.
We soon had it open and signed away.
Can see why he had trouble but our grand kids with sharp eyes had us into the hide.
Nice cache, grand kids loved it,

Was at home going through the Sunday chores when a little birdie contacted me to assist on my previous write note message. With iPhone in hand, I scrolled down checking emails as you do when I noticed the same hide with another cacher this time for a combined attack.
Drove out from Quakers Hill, heading straight here, no other commitments.
Arrived again to see 4 kids and an adult waiting for me.
Hello, hello, nice to meet you, quickly had log in hand and explained some good hides they should try, thanks CO, fav point.

Joint 2ndTF with Coybear2000. We arrived at GZ and quickly found the hide. I had to rely on C to solve the puzzle as I hadn't brought my reading glasses and couldn't see things clearly enough. We soon retrieved the log, signed and replaced it. TFTC

No problem in finding the site and exposing the dials.
No matter how close I crawled or even on my side with my glasses on, I just couldn't see the numbers.
I need to return with another cacher or this will forever be a never to open cache for me.
The torch, with the chrome reflecting wasn't friendly to me, anyway, it seems an outstanding idea and excellent effort from the CO.

Out with Trodectus for a collect after veggie shopping. Saw cache close by so we headed for it. Arrived GZ and fortunately I'm short sighted so did the numbers and CIH. Log signed and returned. TFTC

Published

*** FTF *** @ 13:09 7/7/16

I saw this one published 3 hours earlier and thought for sure, given the school holidays, that this one would've been found by now. Not the case.

Walked along the well trodden grass (this is a very well used short cut by looks) and arrived at GZ to discover an interesting hide.

I had no problem with the field puzzle and was rewarded with a FTF pathtag coin. Many thanks to the CO for that.

Signed log and re-hid for the second finder.

Thanks to Zbois for hiding this cache.
