Logs
Looked all around the tree, spent about 15 minutes searching (in daylight with lots of cars). Sadly had to log as a DNF.
We're here on a 10 day holiday from New Zealand to visit one of our sons who lives here. I'm sure that we will also find lots of caches whilst we're here - this was the first one for this holiday. Great little spot, TFTC
Great find took awhile. Managed to shake the ants off so could sign log!I was meant to be in surgery today but was cancelled. So looking for caches to cheer me up!
Great hide - 4th time walking this way looking for it. Finally got it. Not grabbed and signed as 1) chock full of ants and eggs. Looks like new nest, 2) was not actually caching but on way to shops so no pen and thought 'I gotta find this darn cache!' as I am passing. Will return to sign with pen and gloves!
Oh wow! Started my search but nothing appeared. Just sat and looked and read some older logs and a slight hint gave me direction. Found it! All dry inside and no sign of said ants.How did you think to build something like this?TFTC
This is the first time the Seeker_of _cache team has been unable to find a cache. Been reluctant to enter DFI, but after 5 attempts by 3 different members including the Captain of the team we must admit defeat. ?
Spent some time searching for this one. The GPS took a while to settle, and finding the cache was almost done by mistake. Nice hide, just totally invaded by ants.
Didn't expect to find myself here this evening, but here I am. An unexpected opportunity to make a find.Cheers
Hello from Wollongong!First of a series of caches in the area.It took us about five minutes to find this one. Love the clever hide, but there were lots of ants. Nice and easy find.TyfcI think this is a favorite!
Very cool cache actually saw the maker of the cache mowing the lawn while I was looking 2/2 for today. definitely recommend except there is lots of small ants around the area.
Woooooooooo found it nice cache Toby N from your one and only female secret admirer ??
Ants.Many of them,but very very tiny ants. Coords are bang on. Everything is good at GZ. TFTC TFTHSL * dronnord * ...\*""*.,,.*"",..,*"",..\Gets a fave for content. I was very surprised to find a dry logbook but very happy to do so.
Really cool little findCouldnt find it at first But after admiring the poles I found it
Amazing what a bit of research reading through all previous logs will provide. Made quick work of my second attempt here, locating in the second spot I touched. If only the ants left their trail on the outside, it could have been even quicker.
#8 of 11 pre dawn cycle Coogee Sth rtn. At this one I made the find thanks to confirmation from JFTF at a recent event. Quality hide! Very quiet here at dawn on a Sunday, phew. Thanks for placing this cache clone5com #2045
Very clever hide that took a while to spot.
A fun history lesson too.
All ruined by the ants!?! This needs some TLC.

I searched around for a bit and finally I saw it but I couldn’t get it out so I gave up
TFTC, unfortunately we did find a lot of ants but the hubby was brave and picked it up anyway
What a nifty cache!

Quick find, thanks to a hint below. I love these kind of hides (did not have a pen to sign)
really cool one that i found in the dark. hint made sense but was not great. a better hint would include the 4 reapatibg pillars. this one took us not one not 2 but 3 tries. in the end we had to get a bit of help from man who lived next to the cache.

Found It!
An interesting bit of history and very well built cache! After a bit of searching around I finally noticed something not quite right and that revealed the cache!

this was a great cache. i actually thought i had found it earlier but didn’t look thoroughly enough. cheers eddie.
11034 Located by baby&Mrs gopher in company with Nana Nell and Wazza9 at 1030 on our urban caching drive to pick up some of the GC caches and some LGA's. And the cache is staying alive although, the moisture is a real problem at the moment.SL Tnx clone5com
Well this cache had us scratching our heads with Terrain of 1, and with the hint. Wazza9 noticed something different, yes there it was. Great hide. Stamped log and replace. Thanks to CO
TFTC,
Always a great subject to build any story around.
This one is tops and I was surprised when I made the discovery of the container and log sheet.
Very well done, added a favourite and visited trackables.

The story behind this cache is very interesting. So too was the cache which was quite unlike any I have found before. Truth be; I consider myself lucky to have found it!

Terrific and legendary hide. Had a few attempts at this one until we realised the rain made it marder to crack than usual, but not for the reason we thought.
Had to drop some family at the airport so took the opportunity to do a few caches in the Eastern Suburbs after the formalities. Spent most of the day dodging rain showers, but found some great caches.
Very clever hide that I got in the pouring rain. A little something outside the norm
As a side note: my best friend at school, his mum grew up playing with the Gibb brothers as school kids

Covid threw a wrench into our travel plans for the last couple of years. Finally restrictions have been lifted enough so we can return to Australia. Spending the next couple of weeks in Sydney settling Sal into UNSW. Needless to say O week will keep her busy so I have plans to explore, cache and be on hand to pay bills!
Coords spot on. What a great hide. Favorite point for sure.

CO absolutely right about this one being muggles central... muggle unloading his car outside GZ made the search here rather uncomfortable. Will need to come back under darkness
Looked around for a while but no luck for us today, couldn't quite make sense of the hint either. Will try to get some hints from friends who have found it before returning.
I was on a "HOLIDAY" when last night "I STARTED A JOKE" cause I decided to get a bit of "NIGHT FEVER".
I felt very "ALONE" and "WISH YOU WERE HERE" cause it was "TRAGEDY" after searching in the dark it didn't "RUN TO ME" and "WORDS" can't explain "HOW CAN YOU MEND A BROKEN HEART" when coming up empty handed and "YOU WIN AGAIN."
So "I GOT TO GET A MESSAGE TO YOU" and today with re-enforcement's, we return and even though is wasn't the "FIRST DAY OF MAY," we have a feeling of "FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS". "DON'T FORGET TO REMEMBER", where you looked last night because you need to be "STAYIN' ALIVE" and "HOW DEEP IS YOUR LOVE" for finding this cache. It was much clearer to see and the "LOVE SO RIGHT" when the sneaky hide was found. I felt "MORE THAN A WOMEN" and we were "JIVE TALKIN'" and "YOU SHOULD BE DANCING" as we celebrate "OUR LOVE" for this hide.
Thanks clone5com for placing the cache in a great location and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy the find.

Really cool find, Father’s Day gem connected to a remarkable peace of local history! TFTC Never seen I hiding spot like this before , TFTC AMAZING!!! TFTC!!!!!
Wow that cache was different! I don't think I've ever found a hide quite like that. I'm giving it a favorite point!
Catching up with the logging of caches for the weekend. Had a great day exploring the eastern side of Sydney today. Weather was great and caches found well!

Really cool camo! Unfortunately it has turned into an ants nest teeming with eggs and I was too squeamish to pull the cache out. Will check again to sign the log the next time I’m in the area. TFTC!
After searching for a while we couldn’t find it and then We figured out the clue and finally found it.
Stopped by to have a go of this one. It had me stumped for a while until i started thinking outside the box and pushing some things and the cache popped out! TFTC
We searched and searched and used the navigator and eventually we found it. It's really hard! (Age
Now that was different. And I did read all the cache notes. What a shame that the plaque has s no longer here. There were no muggles around this afternoon which was just as well. They would not believe their eyes if they saw how this is hidden. Great work. There are many ants and ant eggs around the container but the log is safe and dry. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
like most people i think i stumbled across the hiding place by accident. then i got creative after seeing a photo of the cache and thought of similar hides with the same shape. soon had cih
Managed to find it pretty quickly once you think about the clue it all makes sense! Although the hiding spot has been infested with ants so you have to fight your way through them to get the cache
I have been meaning to give this cache a try for a little while now. The geokid and I decided to drop by after school. Initially looking in the wrong place, but suddenly the clue made sense, with CIH almost by accident! Love the camouflage. Earns a FP. TNLNSL. All good. TFTC.
This was the coolest cache. This was my third time took me a while but I finally got it!
