We had to move this but have had difficulty with updating the coords. It was easier to archive and re do the cache. I'm hoping to keep this one moving along. It is now known as Rollover 1.1
 
20-Sep-24
I have re checked coords again. This time I used the coords from the geocaching app instead of a compass. A slight adjustment and am hoping this gets Rollover 1 back in action. I added a small extra hint but if I say anymore it will give it away. I will get either the geo boys or geo husband to also check it.
 
15-Sep-24
We are still strugling to find this cache. Maybe make it a bit easier or change the hint, we have been here for 30 minutes and it is still dificult. I sugest a change in the coordinates or hint
 
01-Sep-24
A quick re check of the coordinates and a minor change. This cache is ready to be found. It is well hidden so think outside of the box. Good Luck and happy caching.
 
17-Aug-24
Still probably missing. Hopefully a better hint could help
 
15-Aug-24
Had a good look but no luck today
 
11-Aug-24
Nothing I could see here
 
05-Jul-24
We have updated the cache and changed to a slightly different location.
 
05-May-24
Needs a new container and log sheets. May move coords to a new easier to access site.
 
29-Apr-24
Yeah think this cache may be missing
 
11-Apr-24
This is definitely missing. Cant find anywhere, searched coordinates and is missing
 
29-Mar-24
We searched for it in the new poster coridnates and still havent found it. We worry it is missing but may just not have found it the posted coridinates lead to here
 
27-Aug-23
I think this might be gone. Looks like the park has had some maintenance done. Maybe it escaped then
 
22-Apr-23
Found in a cute little park in the suburb I grew up in. Never knew such a lovely little spot existed near my home all this time. Thanks for showing me this place.

Picton & Penrith Canberra Day weekend Invasion. Day 5. After a fun few days with a large group of cachers, I spent this rainy day driving around Sydney seeking out a few caches in as many counties of those I have not cached in before as I can. As ever, doing anything in Sydney seems to take a long time and I think I managed seven counties today. Some caches were in busy public areas and some were in nice tucked away spots that seemed a bit secret. It was a difficult day, but all in all very satisfying. I will have to come back to finish off the last few counties in the future. I did not go all the way home but stopped the night in Marulan for some caching there in the morning.

This park was another well hidden area in the suburb and I was happy to have the area to myself. The hint did not seem to apply anymore, but I eventually located this cache a little higher than expected, but it is very wet.

Thanks for the cache Crakers_AJCL

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Have checked the cache and it is still in place. It was recently moved & the new coords lead directly to it. You do need your own pen or pencil. Good Luck
 
31-May-22
Searched for about 15 mins. Couldn’t find it without going onto neighbours property. Unsure if it I still here, or if the navigate tool has not updated to new coordinates.
 
27-Apr-22
Out for some caching with Oldmorty and down to this hidden landscape. Not too many places it could be but a new log and location helped. TFTC!
 
27-Apr-22
Out for a couple of caches and lunch with morty8888.

The two Rollover caches were the last for the day. Each was found quite quickly as both appeared to have had recent maintenance with new logs and very smart clip lock bags.

Thanks for placing this cache Crackers AJCL

After lots of presents, and a large cooked lunch time for a walk in Lane Cove and chase a few caches in the rain. This is an Odd park - no one about and my original path was through the weeds but after I signed the log I found a slightly longer route and chased a Brush-turkey at the creek crossing.

On my way to Macquarie I had a bit of time to put to good use by finding the two Rollover caches in this corner of Epping North.
I liked this little pocket of bushland, surrounded by houses. With no muggles around the cache was found in good condition.

I love these little reserves hidden around the back of houses in the middle of a suburb.
I headed over to find this cache after a long day at work and it was nice to discover this spot.
I didn’t have any trouble in locating the cache at GZ.
The container is in good condition and the log is dry.
Thanks.

Made my way in from the north which could be problematic had there been more rain lately, but the creek crossing was easily negotiated and the cache quickly in hand and log signed. Nice and easy, thanks Crakers_AJCL.

I love that part of the challenge of the cache is working out how to get in behind the houses! Once I’d done that, it was a simple find.

Awesome spot. Hard to find entrance of the road at first but second look worked. Excellent area for geokids and lots fun to be had. I found the cache but couldn’t open it to write on log. White part of lid breaking so may need looking at. Another found as part of Mystery Tour. TFTC

Glad we were with Knight-Trekkers as otherwise we would of not found the park entrance. Kids loved the tyre swing. TFTC.

Hard to be sneaky with such an enthusiastic guardian through the fence. We were VERY interested in those nesting boxes for a while. Log damp but functional. Thanks for showing us a lovely hidden corner of the suburb.

We're back! Exactly as it should be.

Stopped off after leaving the Amateur Radio NSW (HAM Radio) bi-monthly Trash & Treasure sale, at Quarry Road Dural, for this one. It had been a fun filled morning of HAM radio junk scrounging, and a nice BBQ lunch with lots of friendly chit chat, but now it was time to grab some caches while on the homeward journey. This was the 8th of 12 finds, and 1 DNF, for the day.

Parked the geomobile in Eastcoat Road and then ducked down the grassy access path and through the reserve to GZ, where the hide was quickly uncovered and it was CIH. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. Only problem was a very noisy barking dog at the fence closest to GZ, which was drawing attention to my presence. TFTC Crakers_AJCL.

Parked at 19 Eastcote Rd and walked down the grass strip then across the creek. Once at GZ I found it tucked away nicely.
 
18-Jan-18
Once I eventually discovered how to get into the reserve I soon had the cache in hand! Beautiful day for it and only a short detour on my way home from work. Even met a friendly brush turkey. SL TNLN TFTC!!

Came back for this one after a no attempt last year. Made my way over the non running creek and to GZ. Had to expand my search and turns out iPhone was on 8m once I located the cache. SL and replaced. TFTC.

Find #: 1,648
Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Pleasant spring morning
Cache condition: Good

I decided to combine my morning jog with some caching. I parked at the bottom of Kissing Point Road and ran through the bush (lots of steps, so perhaps that should be "ran") and up into North Epping. It wasn't clear how to access the park on the map, but it turned out to be fairly straightforward heading up Eastcote Rd, and a bit of scrambling got me to GZ, where I made a quick find.

I found it ages ago but forgot to log it... Whoops

Parked opposite the reserve entry and made our way in.

This felt like a real secret reserve, I douby many locals even know that it's here.

Over the creek and soon had CIH

Saw a few kookaburras - my favourite bird

My 2nd cache for the day. May plan is to do some old school and close of some months of find caches. Let's see how I go!!!

This was a quick park and grab. TFTC
 
21-Mar-17
Parked in Eastcote Road and walked down to the little park, crossing the creek. Approaching GZ I could see the cache from a distance. After having signed the log and replaced it, I tried to hide it away a bit better.
 
07-Mar-17
Not easy to get to but persistence paid off on finding a way in, an easy find once here, thanks crackers
 
05-Mar-17
Nice and easy find once I found the passage in to the park. TFTC

Tftc, made my way down before a night shift, left myself plenty of time, or so I thought, until Pennant Hills Road struck.

Managed to make it in time, parked and headed in. Found the little crossing and made my way to GZ for a quick find. No neighbours watching.

Dropped my daughter at dance and had 40 mins to find a cache. It was more than enough. I like North Epping, it has that no through traffic feel to it. Wandered over the creek and saw a heap of tadpoles. The cache was not where I expected it.

Find # 1005! Found at 7:35pm.

I had finished work for the day and I was keen to clean up a handful of caches in my 10km radius from home. I wasn't sure which direction to head to at first but I knew that I didn't want to be caught in any traffic if avoidable.

I originally planned on going to the Dundas/Carlingford area but I made a last minute decision to go towards North Epping where there were a few higher terrain caches awaiting my company. It hadn't been a particularly hot day but the afternoon sun is still quite tough to bear when running and jogging. All in all I ended the evening with eight finds and one DNF.

'Roll Over 1' was my fifth find for the afternoon. I parked outside what I thought to be the most suitable entrance but I'm not so sure it was in retrospect. I found GZ after ducking and weaving through some trees and soon found what matched the hint and made the find.

Signed log, thanks for the cache Crakers AJCL
