Found it hanging out with an assortment of spiders.So. Many. Spiders.Left a magnet, took a golf ball.
Wet walk in but the trail is clear enough. Quiet about today and an easy find in good nick. TFTC
One of my three finds in this locality of South Guildford after an unexpected job nearby. Nice bushy strolls at sunset.With five TBs in tow: Cheetah, Harmony Smurf, Canadian Flag, Dosenjger and Dog Tag (with his green soldier tugging the tag all the way).
Walked along the sort of track watching out for slithrrers before making a quick find at GZ . Thanks for the cache tnln replaced as found sl
Found It!
Another nice walk here and a quick find once at GZ. Then it started raining on the way back to the car.

Geokid was playing badminton nearby . I had a walk to search for the a few caches. Got wet shoes when walking across high-grown grass. Quick found. TFTC
One last find for the afternoon, taking a lot of care to keep away from long grass and not go sticking hands under things unless really necessary. Container is ststarting to crack but is dry atm, Thanks tronador.
Continuing my wander in the Waddangalli Woodland, and picking up lots of farmers friends, it wasn't long before I reached this cache. At gz I wandered around avoiding the obvious hiding place and then realised that there wasn't anywhere else to hide a regular container and after checking it was CIH. TFTC tronador.
After spending the morning orienteering at Landsdowne, I decided to make the most of the day and do what all good cachers do when they are out of their local area - consult the map, see what's around and grab a few caches! It appears I am in Tronador Territory! This one wasn't too far a drive from the event, looked to be in an interesting area and I couldn't resist the lure of a regular size. After traversing the trails I soon arrived at a spot befitting the hint and made for a quick find of the well sized container. A great location for a hide (or two) - I had no idea this area was here! Many thanks for bring me here!
Dropped off daughters car for a service nearby and to fill in the time we planned on some caches in the area.
Mrs A spotted the hide which was concealed when found. TFTC tronador.

Great hide. Path a little boggy at times due to recent storms but nothing too bad
Heading over from the nearby cache and discovered a green path to follow. It turned out to be squishy and wet underfoot and I cursed the wearing of the wrong shoes for this bit. Once I was out of the squishy stuff, I looked up and saw something from a distance that had potential. And there was the cache. Decided to take a drier option out of the park.
Surprisingly easy find, very good hint. Watch your feet on the way in and out! TFTC
TFTC,
After finishing our selected cache today, we continued to get some exercise in and locate a few caches before hearing to a friends place for a social visit, lunch and a chat. Great to be out.
Found easily and told by tronador it wasn't in the correct place. It is now.

Found today with Wazza9, no Chrissy presents left for us, stamped log and replaced, thanks to Tronador.
Maytenance month. Accompanied Wazza9 and Nana Nel on their cache hunt, all good here but cachers have not been replacing it as it should be. It's now back where it belongs.
Sometimes we get wet when Anominous Sign and I go out for our caching adventures on Sunday morning. Today was one of these days. Luckily the cache was a quick find. TFTC.
We came to this one from "Waddangalli Wander" on the other side of the reserve. The recent rains meant that part of the trail was a shallow pond with no way around. The "water" left us with wet, muddy shoes and feet. Kinda nice in the heat and a suitable way to make me feel like I've earned a cache
The cache itself was quickly located. Thanks for bringing us here. I enjoyed the area, the company and the caches. Another fun Sunday morning of geocaching!

Mrs Gaztek had to work on this Saturday so we needed to even that out with post-work caching! A pleasant walk through this remnant bush area. We found trails to get us to GZ including some nice sandstone steps across the little creek. We recognised GZ as we approached and sure enough the container was there. We tried to take a shortcut back but the creek was too deep. We bet it would have been easy to walk across only a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for bringing us here. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
#1946 Seventh of eight finds today caching around Clyde to Yennora. Found after a short search. TFTC
Went out tonight once the weather cooled down. I started another nearby cache but there were too many people around to find it without being seen so I decided to have a go at this one instead. A nice little walk in and a quick find at GZ.
Not sure if the signs have been updated since this one was placed but the sign says dogs on leash are permitted, either way mine was coming with me to find this one (one of the very few perks of having an AD).

I don't do Christmas anymore. Far better to donate to some worthy charities where the money actually goes to those in need than to buy presents that spread joy for about a minute. Makes you feel so much better when you're in the Charity office donating, they treat you so wonderfully!
I returned to the geomobile after finding Waddangalli Wander and checked to see if there was anything else in the area before heading home.
Oh, Christmas back in the reserve!
So back I went into the reserve. The golfers gave me strange looks. Hope they didn't think I was doing anything suspicious in the bushland.
I followed some roughly cut tracks which wound their way through to GZ. I even crossed 2 little tracts of water!
The bushland looked in reasonable condition considering the drought and there were quite a few small bush birds around.
Once near GZ my thoughts went to snakes as there were plenty of good spots for them nearby. Luckily I didn't see any but I did see a cache. SL and took a TB to move along.

Tftc Well the planting’s had done better then I thought. Must have been the time telling my team that they had to be planted deeply do you can actually find some soil below the wood cuts. The lack of weed control is disgusting and very unsatisfactory for the work that was put in to try and do this job.
Will award a favourite as used to love working on this remnant. So many special plants around here. At least some weed control may have taken place here but very disheartening.
Cache found quickly. Took 1 trackable left 4. A cache big enough to actually drop some in. Tftc

tronador I found your cache Christmas Wishes Recycled on 11/5/19, 12:45 pm. This is my find 2354 and find # 6 today. A lovely walk, looks like the paths do get cut back. Easy find not far from the path. Lots of farmer’s friends. Thanks for the cache! TNSLLN
An easy find in a secluded spot. The camo had blown off so i replaced it.
GZ coords were accurate.
I walked over from the nearby Waddangalli Wander cache and got my feet a little wet in the marshy bit of the track. It was worth it though.
Thanks.

Initially had a little problem finding where I should park to start searching for this cache. When I did, it was then a pleasant 400 metre walk to the cache.
Signed the log and dropped a TB - Canada to Australia - 'Travel Bug Origins' - to continue it's travels.
Another TB - Squassum Luv Bug - also visited.

Located at 9:49am. The cache was conspicuously upon the ground as I approached GZ so I signed the log and returned with plenty of camouflage in the ideal place. Спасибо! תודה! L’chaim! TFTC!
Forgot my cache bag today. Oops. So dropped a butterfly and 50 cents. Didn't take anything. Hubby located the unnatural but I found the cache... lol. He didn't look properly.

Australian cache no. 41, found with Wystan. Nice to get away from the traffic noise although the flies found us attractive today! tftc!
Found with Mrs Wystan. Very peaceful spot after a day’s work. Greetings from the UK.

After being muggled out at my targeted unloved multi, I looked for some nearby options. Enjoyed the walk on this warm afternoon although I kept my eyes open for slithery things in the longish grass. Thankfully a mowed path led most of the way to GZ where I made a quick find.

Ducked out to get this one on my lunch break. A bit tuff doing this with high heels, all good. TFTC
Getting here was more painful than finding it. BE CAREFUL OF THE DEVIL'S PLANT. sorrydontknowitsrealname.
I'm sure the piece of infrastructure was put there for a good reason, but I can't thing what it would be. It's a good place to hide a geocache anyway.
#4264- Both my mother-in-law and brother live not far from here, so I have been finding the last few in the area when down here visiting. I dropped bikerbuddy at Parramatta so he could ride to Botany Bay, something he hasn't done for a long time.
Today I was meeting my girlfriend I started kindy with over 50 years ago. Not exactly dressed for this one, I followed the mown path for some way before thinking I'd head directly for it, but it was far too thick and I didn't want to end up covered in nettles, so I continued on the mown track which curved back and took me close by. CIH quickly and it was off for lunch, and maybe even a quick look in Costco before- bonus! Thanks tronodor. The last of yours near here done now.

Cool but clear weekend just screamed for a little cyclo-caching so visited the Auburn and Birrong area today.

This was the 3rd of 14 finds for the day - and part of a Tronador-fest it seems.
Lucky I brought a bike. Made wandering around these tracks a breeze.
Not sure why this was here. Perhaps someone was sufficiently perspicacious to foresee a geocache hide.

Today I've brought my wife to her bridge session and I made the area of Granville unsafe! Nine finds and no DNFs. Eight of the nine caches were from tronador!
Based on the title I expected something else. Found it, logged it. TFTC!

If it is the container I am thinking of I think I got First To Find on the original hide! Beating Zalgariath much to his disgust. Today was a fairly easy find one in there at ground zero, I don't know what was going on over the road in the park and if it is normally that crowded, but heaps of people and not much parking in the street either, whatever the event was seemed to involve lots of smoke. Some from BBQs and some seemed to be more ground level. Very strange. But in any case a nice little hide. Thanks tronador.
Out with geomum running errands today when she says "want to get some of your geothingys?" Sure mum! Found this one quickly and was impressed with the area. Had no idea this existed. TFTC!
Followed the green path to GZ and made a quick find of a nice sized cache
Merry Christmas

The potential heat of today was not going to deter me. I nice walk in a new area for me. I stood 30cm from the cache reading previous logs, when all I had to do was lean forward a touch and look down...which I did eventually.
After doing the Waddangalli Wander cache followed the parh and soon arrived at GZ. 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 tronador for placing this cache.
Tftc. Was in the area for medical appointments. Decided to grab a couple of caches while we were here. So hot today, so glad they were quick finds.
After finding another nearby cache with Team (C)RuDSS, I got stung on the stomach by what I think could be stinging nettles argh so itchy. We first went back to our cars to see what first aid we had between us and I remembered having disposable ice packs. Unfortunately in this heat and possibly the age of the pack it didn't go very cold but it was enough to get me to get a midnight cache. The only joyful thing about this cache was that I actually made the find through the pain (although SPY spotted the unnatural item). SL #2879 on streak day #1654 TFTC now to go home and get some real first aid
After finding a nearby cache with Snoopy1976, Spy79 and RIS768 and RIS being stung by something we headed back in to find this cache just after midnight. TFTC
Streak Day #1283 - We ended up doing this one just after midnight due to our first aid emergency, which turned out to be a quick find from the injured ris768. TFTC
Heading to Sydney for an event, decided to grab a few quick traditionals along the way though almost passed on this one as I pulled up in the beating sun and saw how far I’d have to walk… ok so it wasn’t that far (the return always seems mercifully shorter) and the track was easier than I’d feared so another smilie was added to the tally

Happy Christmas! For when it is... mind you the lights are going up already.
Was looking for a cache near home big enough to take the TB we found yesterday. This isn't near home but we were going rock climbing at villawood so good enough. Nice to see a big expanse of woodland without an apartment being constructed on it.
Thanks
After a bit of cross-country hiking from Waddangalli Wander I soon found a decent trail to follow. A slight detour and there was the hint and of course the hide. Luckily no climbing today!
CIH and log signed. Very peaceful here this arvo, but could here sounds from the playground across the road. I'm going to head over there now and look for another tronador cache. Nice hide. TFTC.

Decided to return here for the CO's third cache in this area.
I was planning on doing what I've done the last two times and park in Campbell Hill Pioneer Reserve, but when I arrived it wasn't just Muggle City, more like Muggle Megalopolis!
No parking within 500 metres in all directions and a packed park - complete with jumping castle.
So what to do? Checked the map and noticed that if I came in on Barbers Road from Woodville Road I should be able to walk in the far side of Waddangalli Woodland.
Got a park reasonably close to the gate and the first thing I saw on entering was a track leading in the direction of GZ. Bargain. Followed it and soon found myself with a short trip off track. Spotted something unexpected and soon had CIH.
Seen this one before, the original being my 30th find. This find is *slightly* more than that.
Completed signing duties and then decided to see what the fuss was about in the Reserve.
Lots of families and lit BBQs - and the kiosk was open. Did some Poké-things and then made my way back to a car that was probably closer than some on Campbell Hill Road.
Then went to firm up a find for next weekend's final *Mission GC*

Being in the area after work so decided to look for the 3 recently published ones. Headed in a side track at first and came across some sheep which was a surprise and also then wondered if was on private property before spotting a park sign. The sheep ran off ahead seemed Ng knowing the way to GZ and then it was time to head off track and soon made the find. Logging and rehiding done. A nice bit of woodlands and a walk. TFTC.
Found.TFTC. Got out just before the heavy rain returned. Hate to cross the creek after a rainstorm. Last of the three new neaby caches.
Our second find for today with master Q and lady unicorn. This is her first caching experience. I think she's hooked.
