Poked & prodded what I thought was every hidey hole. Lots of erosion & pine needles at GZ. Will wait till it's been found or checked by C/O before I look again.
 
05-Jan-23
Too many muggles sitting around at the club for us to have a proper look. Will have to come back another time.

This was our turn around spot for our ride. My partner suggested a place to have a break. I agreed as there was a cache here to be found. After a bit of searching I located it, signed log and replaced as found.

Beautiful spot to come look for a cache. Geomum had the idea, geoboy13 retrieved the cache. Wasn’t in the obvious spot we first thought. Container is quite rusty. Tftc

Easy and quick find with sevabo today except there was a warning about brown snake spotted but not near the cache! So we made it quickly.
 
09-Oct-21
Find Number 2297 found at 11:11. Today we found 3 caches and had 1 DNF.

A trip to Huskisson gave me the chance to visit the earthcache and maybe find some others.

I had DNFed this one some time ago and, for the first 20 minutes I though it would defeat me again. I checked every hide-hole within 10m of GZ with no success. I was just about to concede when I spotted something, not in a hole, but lying on the ground in a slightly hidden place. It was the container.

The cache was in good condition. We signed the log (sometimes we sign micro logs with G&T or GT) and replaced the container as found because I had no idea which hidey-hole it was supposed to hide in.

Thanks pete1701e for the cache.

DNF at 13:32

Too many hidey holes, none of which seemed to contain a cache. I must be suffering from cache-blindness.

Thanks pete1701e for the cache, anyway

#6637 2nd for today

A short 2 night trip down the coast to Husky & surrounds to help some friends celebrate their new campervan. I've been down this way a few times, so I went a bit further afield this trip. Highlight was definitely the caches and sights in Booderee National Park - just stunning.

I found a number of questionable and discarded items of clothing before uncovering this one !

Thanks pete1701e
 
21-Nov-20
Cute trinket!!
 
21-Oct-20
Arrived at GZ and was grateful there were no muggles around the Sailing Club, after reading the hint, we searched for possible locations where the cache might be and eventually had cache in hand. TFTC. Cool
 
17-Oct-20
Is been a long time since we've been down here and there has been a few changes.
Found the cache snugly tucked away and signed the log sheet. Took nothing and left nothing but footprints.
Thanks for the cache pete1701e

TFTC!

Nice little tricky cache, to get me back in the game. Gorgeous spot. Tftc
 
07-Jul-20
Taking on the White Sands Walk with the extended family. Rude not to pick up the three geocaches on the way. Good little hideaway for this one. Kids loved the swing too.

I committed to a day of caching in Sanctuary Point, Vincentia and Huskisson. Ended up finding two-dozen caches with only one DNF! Very happy to have had a successful day down here. Thanks to all the Cache Owners for their contributions to this recreational activity.

This one took a while. Found after a bit of hands-on searching. TFTC

No find in the naural litter, but good bbqs and seats nearby for toasted sandwiches for lunch. Yum
Tftc albeit unfound.

A day around Jervis Bay required at least the one token cache to show up as a smiley on the map. Walking around the point with Whafe, quickly found and not the least overlooked. TFTC!

Our group decided to walk on the paths from our lovely accomodation in Vincentia to the village at Hyams Beach - what a beautiful and pleasant walk along the coast. Arrived at the sailing club and dashed down to GZ where a jumpy GPS meant that it took a few minutes to uncover. Cool swing next to some beautiful bush and views. TFTC!
 
30-Jan-20
More to come
 
27-Jan-20
Quick stop on our walk today the kids loved the swing.

A quick visit today to the white sand beaches. Had to show some overseas visitors around in the broader area so not much time for caching, but was able to pick up the three remaining caches for me in Vincentia. Great location again!

Nearby ticking of a three year old nemesis cache, swung by here to hopefully add a bonus smiley. Took too long and a PAF for BF7 and I to agree the D/T rating and size are misleading. Co-ords good though.
 
23-Nov-19
This one took a bit of searching,found the hidden keys before finding the hide.
Thanks for the cache

Came back today and added our name into a the lid sheets.

Nice and quiet here at the moment.
