Hi RyokaD3,
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. 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 28 days) 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 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.

It may be a good spot for coffee, but appears it might be better for VB, as empty beer cans were all I could find. The flood of recent water had also dislodged some of the loose steps, and perhaps the cache as well?
This cache is kind of evil, and for that, I love it. I came here a couple of days ago and found the decoy but didn't find where the official log book was hidden. Or I thought I didn't. But I left without a smiley and messaged the CO for help.
Sometimes you just need to look at everything. I'm giving this cache a favorite for fooling me, and giving me somewhere lovely to sit for a couple of hours

At last! Been here a few times. Was just about to give up again, which would have been 2 out of 2 DNFs, when I had an “aha”moment, recalling something I had seen and discounted. So please to tick this one off again. Clever, frustrating but ultimately rewarding. TFTC. SL. TNLN.

After completing two lab caches around Sydney Olympic Park, I crossed the bridge and found a few more cache along the river on my way to Gladesville.
The final one for today. Another interesting spot. The new house being built right next door is massive!

Nice little part of the world. Cache and log found quickly. Seen this camo before. Thanx
Found the decoy, and then the real cache container thanks to finding a similar one before. CZlever hide. TFTC
After three founds, we felt that Geoluck was on our side so we decided to attempt this one, even though there were several DNFs. Thought we had cache in hand only to discover the deception. With the help of the hint, Geowife had cache in hand. Log signed and replaced. TFTC
What a great spot! We came out on a Saturday afternoon, parked near the soccer ground and walked down here. Came across what we thought was success but soon discovered the prank. Looked around to where we were pretty sure it should be but found nothing. There was a bit of potential camouflage but it was not hiding a container for us. Will watch with interest. Cheers... Gaztek
Wet day today so presumed correctly there would be no one about. Found the hide then had to think. Certainly a twist to this cache. I’m usually found walking on the other side of the river from here.

Please organise/returb it exactly how you found it or the clues wont make sense

We couldn’t find it on 15 Feb - forgot to log. Maybe due to heavy rains beforehand it is no longer there?
No luck with this one today, too much rubbish along the stone stairs. Might come back when someone else found it.

Aaaahahaha! Love it! We were off track for a while with a misinterpretation that lead us on an adventure that proved tricky for middle-aged knees. A message from the CO had us back on the path to success. Thanks for this great cache RyokaD3! A favourite point.
Today we headed over to Linley Point, Henley, Gladesville, Tennyson Point, and Putney to check out some of the new caches that had appeared since our last visit to those areas. This was the 7th of 8 finds for the day.
Arrived at GZ and made a quick find, but then realised there was a slight twist to this one. Initially got a little side tracked, but then thought about it and considered something else, which then allowed us to correctly make the find. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC, and the twist, RyokaD3.

OCW marj01 this morning and it was he who picked the right level to search and make the find. TFTC
Did a routine check to find that someone ruined the setup of this cache.
There is a 2nd dimension to this cache, so for all the people who found a box and a piece of paper in it, I apologise but you were robbed of your experience.
I have fixed it now.
PLEASE PUT EVERYTHING BACK EXACTLY HOW YOU FIND IT.

Found it, but not where I expected. But I definitely had the right log. Well a find’s a find.
Completed signing duties and replaced, then off to my other target.

With hatzofff for a few days caching around Sydney. We stopped by to collect your cache. We are in the company of Bluewattle.
We made this much harder than it should have been. Why didn't we read the hint properly! So now off to some dinner before heading to the CITO nearby.

Found with RoddyC and Hatzofff with the assistance message from the CO. We collected a bag full of empty beer cans as part of CITO
We figured it out in the sticky end. Glad to have come up with the goods here.

Not the caching expedition I had planned for today.
With all the rain in my part of Sydney I had to abandon those plans. Finally late this afternoon the rain eased so I came here a closeish unfound and so not so much traffic.
Great views of the Parramatta River from here!
Water was still running down the steps here even though it was only spitting while I was here, and it was very slippery - good tread on your shoes recommended.
There was considerable evidence that a river of water had been flowing down these steps, probably for most of the last 24 hours.
Thankfully caching instincts kicked in and with good co-ordinates I soon had CIH. SL which is completely dry although some of the rest of the camo isn't.
TFTC - something a bit different!

A quick 2 hour drive to Sydney to work on my CITO numbers. Once the event was over I had some time left to grab a few local caches in Ryde and surrounds. Especially the once at the Parramatta river were great.

The hint had me off on a wild stick chase, only to find the cache close to a perfect spot to sit and watch the river.

This is s lovely area with secret hidden steps.
Fisherman at the bottom caused no problems as we made a discreet quick grab

Sceptical about searching before work with the construction site workers nearby but I believe this is your best hide yet. Really nice spot for a hide, fp, thanks RyokaD3
Oh wow! 2 out of 2 favourite points!
It's this type of appreciation that makes me put more effort and time into hiding my caches.
Thankyou immensely!

{FTF} We were out fishing nearby when this notification came out. Can we do this yes we can. RUshed over to GZ and began the search. 40 mins later we came across what we were looking for. That's hillarious so well done. TFTC fav point given as something a little different .
