Hi LovelyLadyLocks,The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention, or it may not but in the absence of the cache owner performing maintenance and/or disabling the cache to check it out, I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 4 weeks) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 4 weeks 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.Ngaambul - Matt
Visited it during 28-days geotrip to Australia, N.Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji, Am.Samoa, Fr.Polynesia with Marci, Ch. Sometimes we logged as "MT" or "Jonea" or "MTCh". Thanks for showing nice caches and places. MT-Jonea from Brno city in Czechia EU.
We are on another short (three day) caching holiday in Western Sydney and the Blue Mountains, staying for two nights in a park cabin at the Ingenia Nepean River BIG4 Holiday Park at Emu Plains. Hoping to collect some of the new Puzzle, Wherigo, and Letterbox caches, and a new Adventure Lab, that have appeared around Warragamba since our last visit to the area. Will also be returning to the lower Blue Mountains for a couple of new Adventure Labs and a challenge cache, and revisiting a few DNFs from the previous trip, mostly NE of Penrith. Photos will be uploaded to some logs on our return to home base.
Today (day 3) we were caching in the lower Blue Mountains, then around St Mary's, and finally at Beaumont Hills & North Kellyville on our way back home.
Oh dear, our second DNF in a row, after a second time around DNF at the nearby "Mary MacKillop - Claremont Meadows" cache. The white gate post was empty, if that's where it's suppose to be. Anyway it's another sad blue face on our geo-map.

On a drive to get cheaper fuel on a really hot Sunday. Unfortunately we could not find the cache, but the history was interesting. A big difference between the old road and the new road.
Wow, awesome heritage! Also amazing geocache. Left a little something for the next person. TFTC!
Found It!
An interesting bit of history and a quick cache find. Will have to come back one day and go for a wander around the ruins.

I always wondered about this building. Shame these old ones fall into disrepair. Thanks for sharing your family history. Tftc
Parked nearby and headed to GZ and made a quick find.
Once the log was signed all was returned as found.

Headed west today.
I know the Woolpack Inn in Yorkshire as home of the TV show Emmerdale.
Very strong attachment for the cache.

OCW The Bebes today with Glenmore Park being our main focus. Perfect caching weather allowed us to keep going all day.
This one had a VERY strong attachment, it’s not going anywhere. Thanks LovelyLadyLocks.

In town on business for a few days. Grabbed a quick nearby cache w/ my coworker. TFTC!
I've come out to St Marys for an event this afternoon. Along the way I've managed to grab a few caches and having a bit of time left I drove past the event venue and parked in the car/truck repair place which is closed and empty today being as its Sunday.
From there it was a short walk to GZ.
Wow, that's a fierce magnet!
I noticed that all the plants, maybe weed species have grown up in front of the Wool Pack and there's not much to see these days.
Finally had CIH and signed the log.

### Welcome to Blue Mountains ###

We took a day trip to Penrith, Lapstone and Glenbrook today.
We walked along the tram way and the zig zag way and have enjoyed many other nice beautiful spots
Nice landscape to explore.
We’ve also stopped multiple times along the way and solved some multi caches.
We’ve also found a virtual cache in Glenbrook Park.
Thank you all the owners for the nice caches

#2428 walked down from Bennetts Wagon crossing the highway when I had a chance. Got to GZ and soon put my hand on the cache, but as others have said the magnets are strong and putting your hand on the cache and having it in hand takes a little while to break the attachment. Even though I soon had the cache in hand
With cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache LovelyLadyLocks

This was a pleasant walk from McDonalds half a kilometre away. Easy to find with a strong magnet. Took a couple of tries before it came loose.
• the container has a strong magnet (comment from 04/07/2018, thanks HubbyandMrs)
• see photo of the actual cache in a log from 28/12/2017 (thanks k.fotakapoulos)

P.S looks like the log is nearly full, probably can squeeze 2 more names and thats it. Thank you to LovelyLadyLocks for a great spot.
Somehow every time I'd driven past this cache I had imagined walking over to the ruins! TFTC
There were no problems locating this hide. We managed to park safely nearby and by using the hint made a quick and easy find. The traffic certainly zooms past here at speed.
We added our name to the list of finders and then put everything securely back into its proper place. Thanks go to LoveLadyLocks for this placement and the family history about the area.

Nice quick grab for the day on the way home - that ones a strong one - TFTC LovelyLadyLocks, I really enjoyed it!
Made a legal stop here out the front of the cache. Parked for less than 2 minutes whilst remaining less than 3 metres from my vehicle, in the No parking zone.
Stopped, located cache, signed, replaced and drove off.
Thanks for the hide LLL.

Had no problems in finding this cache. The cache was found in the first place that was checked. Sat on the near by seat and signed the log and then the cache was replaced as found. Thank you LovelyLadyLocks for placing this cache.
Wow, could hardly release it from its spot. Understood the hint straight away, thanks for the hide LovelyLadyLocks
The BTEC Boys stumbled upon this cache, upon arrival we had realised we had forgot our pen.
Found by geojaz but had to negotiate the guardian in the form of a redback spider actually on top of the cache!
Found! But didn’t have a pen because it was a spot of spontaneous caching on the way home from dropping off the car for a service.
Found in the second place I looked. Did the legals and replaced as found. TFTCM

Back in Penrith area for a week or so again so a little caching is in order and this guy was on my list for today.
I don't know if I was here before Toriaz or after but we have found a lot of the same caches today.
Quick park and grab. Thanks.

I navigated to the first parking spot, but there was already a car there. So I continued on to the 2nd one, and started following the GPS back to GZ. Turns out that the first parking spot was right at GZ. Oh well, steps!
I found the cache instantly, but needed Monkey Girl's little fingers to get it out.

Quick find but crikey, sure is a strong one. Be aware of fingers when replacing. Many thanks to the CO **LovelyLadyLocks** for establishing and maintaining this cache for the rest of us to enjoy, see and visit new places with a hunt in mind.
Find number 3913
eading home and surprisingly quite on the highway for a friday afternoon so we managed to pull in to find the gate open due to mowing, so had an easy turn around before Mrs Booo jumped out for a nice quick find.
Thanks LovelyLadyLocks for placing this cache.

Previously logged under team account BoogieRogue. Re-logging with my individual account. Found it with Kise78 after orienteering in Wianamatta. TFTC
As soon as I approached the cache I knew where it was going to be; what I did not know was that I was going to need the strength of Hercules to be able to get it out.
Wow, great magnets.
Anyway log signed and returned.

First of a few today, nice easy park & grab, but how dare I think about work on my day off 'Nice spot for a work car'
Found it quite easy, but OMG those magnets are awesome... it took longer getting it from its Hide than actually finding it.. did the signing duties, now off to the next.
