Very clever Favorite point From USA and on a driving trip of Australia Picked up a new travel bug and dropped one with Bart Simpson that wants to make it back to south Australia
Fortunately no snakes encountered.If you can't find it at first, check the image of the log.
Keeping my geocaching trips easy with nighttime finds. Four found last night. A short nap in my geomobile before another four finds very early today. I rather spend tonight with my family. Keeping my finds honest. Alas its a cold misty midnight with drizzles in upper Blue Mountains. Fourth find of today. Picked up a trackable - Go East luck tooth Minnie. Will take it up the NSW coast soon. TFTC 111216
Nice container and camo here! Grateful for a quick find after 4 non-starters on trails due to dodgy GPS, knackered dogs and my phone dying. Onwards!
This was one of the last stragglers I had left around Katoomba township itself. Would've been silly to leave this one unfound. Made for a quick find. Signed log and headed off. TFTC
Nice one! Wondered around for a bit, then zooming in to conclude that this 'thing' must be the cache. And indeed it was, well crafted, tftc!
A beautiful day in the blue mountains! The trees that is nearby has lots of bees inside of it. Be careful!
Love these sort of hides!Box is a little damp but log was dry enough ....../ ).....' /---' (_____.TFTC . ((__)..... _ ((___)....... -'((__)--.___((_)
I've been struggling to get my caching gaming back on track after all the covid era. So after leading a canyon trip yesterday at Mt Wilson I was going to camp out at Barcoo Swamp and do some exploring Newnes Plateau for canyon entry tasks and geocaches. EXCEPT after seeing up camp, and hanging out my canyon gear to dry I realised I left some gear back at Mt Wilson, so after a restless sleep, I packed up early this morning and hoping to recover my gear, with success!With my exploration plans scrapped I decided to go for breakfast and hopefully find the one topo map I was missing from an information centre. After all that I had to find at least one cache, and this one was it. Easy find here, though the contents were a bit damp. Thanks for the cache.
Hi the cache is still there, its not your regular type of cache, look for something that belongs in this setting
It was left as only an empty Chinese container that was broken we are to believe that it was stolen and someone stole the things inside of it
Out for the first time in a while with goingplaces2 for a bit of caching. Enjoyed the day and found this one OK. TFTC.
Today looked like a good day for a drive through part of the Blue Mountains with ilook4geo, finding some caches along the way as well. This one was a more subtle hide, which we enjoyed finding. Thanks for the cache placement go to 111216.
Great little hide. Nice and accessible. Found with Barrelledover, Gambella and Spartman on our adventures in Katoomba!
A flat walking track around here is a bit of a marvel. This was a quick find on the way back from Kat Creek Cliff. Thanks 111216 for the clever camo
This is the biggest camouflage of this type I've ever seen! Unfortunately only a few pieces of damp log inside. I put in a new piece of paper and a couple pieces of swag. TFTC!
A walk around Katoomba on the eve of tackling the Six Foot Track. Nice to come to this side of the highway and also to find such a cleverly camouflaged hide. Nice work! SL TFTC Cheers… Gaztek
Very easy find. Unfortunately the log and all the contents were wet. Log needs a dry out. TFTC
After dropping MrT at SES at Katoomba, decided to do a couple of caches on the way home. A quick find. Signed log and returned as found. TFTC
I’m back working in Katoomba and thought I’d grab a few caches while I’m in the area.
I’m working not far away and trying to earn a souvenir for the Wheel of Challenges challenge so needing to have at least a 2 day streak to earn this souvenir.
I started the short walk up the track and it wasn’t long before the cache presented itself, but Ben with its natural camo, for a quick and easy find.

I’m going to give this cache a favourite point for the effort that was put into it.
It does need to be cleared out of a lot of actual junk that’s been left behind.

Rode off into the sunset with the pony and left a communication card. Nice job here. Tftc

Probably not the best day to head up to Katoomba for a few caches - so many muggles around and parking anywhere - even at the lookouts - was a nightmare.
As a result I bypassed a few caches I'd have otherwise grabbed. But still nabbed a good number - including a full AL after being lucky enough to get a parking spot at Leura.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Final find of the day - and an easy one to finish with.
Quick find, sign and replace, then headed home.

Drove along the track and parked within metres of the cache. TFTC

Found a while ago, logging now.
Was in the beautiful Blue Mountains so stopped along the the way to find a few caches.
No hint, grrr, but didn't need one in the end for this clever little cache.

Easy little park and grab. The cache is in good condition and very ingenious, signed and replaced. Thanks for placing the cache
It pissed down with rain as soon as I left the vehicle. Nice cache. Fav point.
Pulled up to this one and by the time we two two steps to the cache the skies opened up and it was an instant drenching!
I let the geokiddies do this one alone. They come back with a huge smile on there faces.
Found by wackydo and her grandkids. Great first cache for the grandies princess Elsa and Spider-Man. Thanks for a great cache. Photo attached. Kiddies took one small toy each. Didn’t have anything to replace with. Filling in time while other grandie is at hospital with broken arm.
