Logs
It was nice to find this lovely park and rest area after an hours drive out to Bilpin. The ground on the oval area was quite squelchy. It must have rained out here recently.There was only one other car in the carpark and of course the muggles from it were using the kids playground. I had some binoculars in the geomobile so took them with me. The local birds obliged and started singing near GZ and the playground. Looking around up in the canopy I didn't look suspicious.Quickly grabbed the cache and did the signing duties then replaced the cache with plenty of camo.TFTC # 6251
Avenging a previous DNF and no problems finding the cache this morning. Quick find and after signing the log replaced as found. Thanks for the cache Cruiseforever.The following TBs came through for the mileage: Bob geoMinion, Dave geoMinion, Evil geoMinion, Jerry geoMinion, Larry geoMinion, Mary Hyde's Treasure, Stuart geoMinion, teamMerlin's 7 Deadly Ducks Tag (Lust), Vanlith The Youngling, Hidden Creatures Geocoin TB, teamMerlin's Football
Easy find, lucky to have the park to ourselves for 10 mins. Very close to playground and oh so obvious. Took nothing left a little pig. Tftc
Bear & bee Beautiful day out in the mountains with bee After some apple pie and and a hot chocolate Perfect way to finish off a Sunday Great cache ! TFTC
I think I've found one in this park previously. It made me wonder then and now why in such a big park the cache needs to be so close to the kids section. Anyway everyone caches their own way . Ttfc
Found on day 1 of plantbaby's bday trip to the blue mountains! Stopped off at all the places here in bilpin and had some ciders. Tftc 
Found on our way to Mudgee for the King's Birthday Long Weekend. A quick find. How lucky we were that it was enabled this morning. TFTC
DNF looked all over near the base of the tree! At least it is a cute spot to stop.
Everyone says this one's easy but we couldn't spot it anywhere after much poking around 
found a couple Easter eggs from a recent egg hunt though haha
found a couple Easter eggs from a recent egg hunt though hahaVisited it during 28-days geotrip to Australia, N.Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji, Am.Samoa, Fr.Polynesia with Marci, Ch. Sometimes we logged as "MT" or "Jonea" or "MTCh". Thanks for showing nice caches and places. MT-Jonea from Brno city in Czechia EU. Logbook total KO so we photo it.
We're heading over the mountains after a pleasant few days in Sydney and decided to stop here for a short break in our journey. It's always nice to find a cache at a rest area.Thanks for find #5336TNLN
Find#6412Nice hiding place What a epic road trip exploring Australia Thanks for the cache
A quick find with JTStar here after we had lunch at the nearby Grumpy Baker. Nice park. TFTC!
Nice park for a lunchtime stop. Then a stroll, looking for the cache.A great container that could easily be overlooked. All good TFTC
Nice quick find while we were in the area picking cherries.My 5yr was excited to be the 1st name on the new log. TFTC
No taped off area but leaf letter has been cleared from under trees around GZ so needs checking put by CO.
Stopped off mainly for a rest from driving but thought I’d have a look while here. Unfortunately, area still taped off with asbestos warnings
Came expecting a quick find, but unfortunately no luck. Area around GZ is now taped off with Asbestos Warnings. There are a couple of trees not taped but no cache found. Mulch on inside trees looks to have been removed, but we weren't going beyond the tape just for a smilie.
#6857--First cache for the day heading towards Lithgow flying solo.ii remember finding another caches in this park. The park has been done up nicely since then. Great spot for grey nomads to stop. Quiet this morning though.

Out geocaching with thomo31, found and returned to it's spot. Thanks for the cache.
Lot of muggle but nice placement. It's a replacement container and log is wet. TFTC
Due to inaction on this cache maintenance we, the active geocaching community has replaced new cache container with new log using same clue. Viva La Caching
Could only find a lid with gaffer tape across it suggesting it was from a cache which had been muggled.
Will email the owner.
