Added this cache to the list for the morning with ilook4geo as we were parked so close to it. It was found quickly and both names were soon added to the log. All was then replaced out of sight, Thanks for this cache placement go to Jesa934.
Happy to add this cache to our colllection after a nice quick search revealed the container. All is good with this one. TFTC.
A straightforward find while passing through this part of the world today on the way to an event at Kingsgrove.Thanks for the hide.
Took me a while after nightfall. However I didnt want to come back here again so I kept feeling around. Nice to find a dry log roll inside, signed off. TFTC Jesa934
Thanks for the cache! It was a bit of a tricky find. We knew what was common about the scout caches so it did guide us in the right area, except it was barely visible, so you have to feel around. There was one muggle nearby but they werent a threat.
No luck today didn't want to search too long as there were workers around. Thanks
woah after a few months i came back and found it in 1 min , crazy last time i spent at least 20 mins trying to find it with no luck ):
Found; unsure whether it was in the right spot as it has a magnet attached but returned to where previously located. The log was damp & disgusting ://
On my way for two days of caching around lake Macquarie. A quick find here.TFTC Wilbert67
i look in the area and could not find it perhaps it was the gps’s fault
I was almost distracted by something that looked like a great hiding spot, but when I looked at the coordinates I spotted the cache very quickly. The inside has gotten wet but the waterproof log was still okay
Paper is very water logged, first page basically ruined. otherwise, all good
TFTC, found after a good search, well hidden. Could not fill out log as it's just wet paper in the cache.
Maximums 64

Took a while and had to navigate through overgrown grass and leaf piles. More trees on the navigation than in real life.
Almost another DNF. I'm having a shocker today, but we got it. Log is a bit damp. TFTC
Oh man it’s a public holiday and there are people everywhere.
Casually strolled over. Didn't expected it to be there ! I think I was lucky to spot it so quick.
Coordinates are true.
All in good shape.
How about that purple banksia flower !

Been a while since I’ve been caching, this one seems like a good one to scout for
Having had our traditional Sunday lunch, this time at Parramatta RSL, we passed this location on our way home, and stopped for a find.
Rummaged around a bit, before we found the cache in a location we actually had searched already once.

Ended up parking in the wrong street which made it a bit more of a walk than it needed to be, though it was a pleasant afternoon for it. Found after a short search. Thanks Jesa934.

After finding parking in the nearby street, it was a quick walk to GZ and soon spotted the Cache.
Sign the log and placed back as found.

Quick find although wonder whether it is where it is actually supposed to be. SL. TFTC.
OCW morty8888 on a hot and humid day.
After searching for a while we had CIH, but we weren't expecting to find it where it was.

Picking the hottest day of the summer so far wasn't ideal but when theres caching planned, you get on with it. Oldmorty and I ventured to the Carlingford area today. Not many options here so looking top to bottom worked and we soon had the cache signed and back where we found it. TFTC!
Needed a park and grab during lunch. Took a bit longer to find than I expected, but find it I did. TFTC
Took way too long looking for this . Then spotted something odd and then aha! thats what the other scout series caches were.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
Had a nice Sunday afternoon walk in the area. A couple of family were in the park here playing cricket and kicking a ball around. Nice little hide. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
Thanks for the neat little hide.
Great stonework around here.
I was lucky after 2dnfs today to grab this at 11.20 and keep my calendar challenge alive.
Just 3 days to go!!!

Find #: 2,282
Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Cool summer morning
Cache condition: Good
After running the Panania ParkRun I decided to find a few caches on the way home. I needed to change podcasts halfway, so pulled over in Carlingford, and while there idly checked for nearby caches. Perfect! I walked over for a quick find - TNLNSL, TFTC

A new year has started, and the annual cache counter has been reset to zero. So, time to get out of the house and find the first caches of the year.
On the way to my favourite pool I stopped for a road side cache. It was an easy find without any muggles around.

Streak Day #2309 - Out with Dave8153 today, awaiting a muggle to disappear into their house, once coast was clear we made the find in a couple of mins. TFTC
Looked along the fences, high and low. Still couldn’t find it. Some neighbours noticed me so I didn’t want to stay for too long
Quick find with Ris768 for the daily cache thanks for placing this cache Jesa934

Quick find with Deep_99 to keep the streak going. SL #4224 on streak day #2615 TFTC
Finding the other scout caches gave me an edge here today, last time I spent way too much time looking low.
Day 3 of streak week challenge. I knew where it should be and guessed it would be the same as the others in this series. Couldn't spot it. Quick PAF confirmed I was in the right spot. Found it on the ground in the leaf litter. Replaced where I reckon it should be. TFTC
This is suppose to be my first find...
I did notice someone had pried open the fence a little bit so I poked thru some of the logs in the Scouts' backyard but had no luck. Didn't want to get myself reported by the neighbors so I called quits.
If this is "Easy" then it's quite depressing looking forward.

Asked for the clue.
Guess I was a bit too shy for a first timer, lesson learned.
Thank you Jesa934.

Quick find late in the day to keep the month long streak going.
Still a few muggles crossing the park, though.
Couldn't spot it in any of the logical spots, or feel it in any of them either. Hmmm. Had a crazy idea, that required a bit of contortion. And there it is. Pretty sure that's not where it should be, given the container.
Completed signing duties and replaced where I thought it should be. Again, contortion required to place the camo.

Found early this morning with kazzacosmo, thanks for bringing us here and Tftfc
I stopped by on the way to Epping to attempt this one. I was able to park very close so it was basically a park and grab.
Where do you get these neat little containers?
Nice one, thanks Jesa934.

Quick and short detour on the way home from comp tennis brought me to 1st Carlingford Scouts. I know this area reasonably well but just like most of Sydney it changed a great deal with so many units nearby.
Like Martin_cousins the last finder (himself) had replaced the cache out of sight and well out of my reach and I'm very flexible! Don't know how some other cachers are going to get this one but after signing the log and squeezing it back into the container I replaced the cache where I found it.
