Still trying to get a hold of the correct container for this location

Cache is missing

I was looking to find some caches in the area and it appears that this cache needs maintenance or replacing.

I have a habit of travelling to caches before checking logs to see if they’ve been found recently. Unfortunately it seems this tree has been majorly pruned since the last find; will have to keep an eye on the status of this one

Cache is gone

It appears to be gone?

After the CITO came here to check after the few DNF. From when I found it, it appears the tree has had a major prune. Can't find the Cache going amongst the trees at GZ

Will try it next time

Will have to come back another day.

Gotcha!! TFTC ?

Out for a geocache with my wife. Our exercise during week 8 of COVID lockdown. Cache is in the foliage, rather than under it.
A beautiful sunny August Monday.

Cache is gone

GeoMonster10 I didn’t find your cache c.a.r.e.s 4 on 3/4/21, 5:07 pm. Searched all around but nothing found.

Was too good for me today.

Easy find

Forgot a pen, nice hide tftc

Down to the last dozen days on the caching calendar, so was keen to get out after work. Geoboyfriend turned up with a slab of beer and was a couple in when we reached GZ. He was no use (his words not mine), but he’s an alright bloke. Happy Valentines dear. A couple of laps and spotted the hide once I amended the altitude of my searching. Saw some hoons and felt a few drops of rain, we sure know how to Friday night! Oh and the previous finder in January didn’t sign the log.

My first find.

TFTC

Nice find tricky access not impossible

That was rather difficult. But got there in the end. Tftc

Even with the help of a PAF and a second set of eyes, I couldn't find this one.

Took a bit longer than it should have but we got there in the end TFTC

This one took a little longer than it should have. Got there in the end. Tftc

Found while driving past while at work

With a little help from T31 I managed to find it eventually. Council workers were mowing the lawn and one stopped to see what I was up to. A quick explanation saw him laugh and congratulate me for getting out and about. TFTC

Streak Day #2485 - Out with Dave8153 today for a quick cache and some exercise to keep our streaks alive. TFTC

30 April 2020

Thanks to GeoMonster10 for placing and maintaining this cache.

#5289- Having done about half the new Lansvale trail, thomo31 and I headed here. I thought I knew where it should be, just not what it should be, and she spotted it, lost it again, then spotted it. Not where our signal said it should be, but we got there in the end.
Helps when you don't have a muggle brother tapping his fingers waiting for you. Thanks

Found with WaywardWoman while caching in the area. Signal took us to one place, but nothing. Then looked at other place. After walking around we spotted it! Signed log and returned as found. TFTC

Well thank goodness for you GeoMonster10. Your co-ordinates are always spot on and although your descriptions are brief the do point you in the right direction.

I came here on the way home from Lansdowne Reserve where I had attempted several caches along the power trail. The co-ordinates were all way out today and the areas were full of rubbish or snakey looking so it wasn't much fun.
This simple but sneaky cache is what it's all about.

The c.a.r.e.s. centre was deserted today but looked well set out just like the others. I think they are a really great idea.

TFTC # 3881

I needed one today to fill my calendar of finds.
I came her 3 times during the day before success came..
Firstly at 3.30am (avoiding the police at the road entrance of Hector St by coming in from the east.) I searched the obvious place which was not the GZ.
Secondly I came back at 9am (without my device). I searched the same place without luck.
Finally at 1pm I had success when my device indicated a GZ some metres away.
It was almost an instant find. I won't bore you with circumstances that dictated my visiting times.
TFTC

A quick find after finding the right way in. Great setup they have in there. A shame about the damage to the shade cloth that was no doubt as a result of the recent crazy weather. I also saw an abundance of bees in the nearby wattle which made me happy! TFTC!

quick find with Ris768 for the daily cache thank you GeoMonster10 for placing this cache


Log 2257 Streak Day 1144

Quick find with Deep_99 to keep the streak going. SL #4399 on streak day #2784 TFTC

Stopped here after work spent a little while looking around GZ eventually spotted it from one side but then lost it again when I walked to where it was but found it again

With cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. That took equally as long spotting the base. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache GeoMonster10.

Early day had me detouring the round about way home to collect some caches. This one was elusive to me and yes, should of trusted the GPS like others have mentioned, thanks for the hide geomonster

I trusted my gps on this one and it payed off! I thought I knew what I was looking so I started searching in one area and it turned out to be good! Tftc

I managed the find even with the hoons around.

TFTC.

It took a paf to show this one to me

Tftc. Quick find here today.

OCW the Bebes to clear a few caches on Xmas eve. Quick park and grab this one. Tftc

OCW PelDroedGwin

With all the Christmas shopping finished what else to do but cache ?

The park was deserted today, after a few loops the well hidden cache was spotted

Tftc

Stopped by after Chipping Norton parkrun. Not far from home. Circled around once and spied the sneaky hide. No muffled about today.

#6790 (2of 2 today)

Looking to up my find count today, so decided to head a touch south for some newer hides. Went for two around Yagoona and Milperra, and found both without any difficulties.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Wandered in and assumed the location rather than following the GPS. Then checked - oops, back that way.

Once at GZ I quickly spotted the hide.
Signed, replaced and away before any muggles could start blundering past.

Easy find though well concealed. OCW Brewmaker. TFTC GeoMonster10

Not quite a P.A.G., but who c.a.r.e.s! Pin drop was spot on. Just a matter of circling the foliage a few times to get a good view. Well hidden actually. TFTC

PS: I do care that good grammar and spelling are still important in the digital age!

My very first FTF!!! I saw this one pop up and since it wasn’t too far away I decided to head over and have a go. I’m usually terrible at micros so I wasn’t confident but the co ords were spot on and I must have just been at the right angle for a quick find. TFTC.
