After some reported issues will disable and go and check on it

Quick solve but couldn't find the cache.

Nope

In the run-up to my trip to Australia, I tried to solve this series.
Today my tour took me back to Penrith to look for more caches of this series.
After a short search I found what I was looking for.

Many thanks for this great series
Best regards
Team sissifalke

Can't see it.

After a night spent solving the majority of the Glenmore Park puzzles (except for all the jigsaws as need more time) I headed out west today as I have family nearby there.

After finding the start of the series with my niece and nephew this morning, headed back by myself to continue the search.

Sadly only one I could not find for the day, did a quick loop back at the end but was way too hot in the mid afternoon sun so decided to abandon for another time I'm out that way.

TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity. Took some time. Got this time.

Down in the west of Sydney today to treat myself to a pre Christmas cache bender! Enjoyed solving a bunch of puzzles in advance and doing a heap of jigsaws.

This was a fast park and grab. TNLN TFTC

Tftc.- different, spotted just as we were leaving.

Tftc - easy find found with WShoeii

Easy find!! Tftc

Venturing out to Glenmore Park today to look for puzzle caches solved over the last couple of days. Being a somewhat novice puzzle cacher, these have been an excellent way to practice and get used to a variety of puzzle types. Many thanks ws cachers! Please excuse the generic logs. Just managed to spot it.

Looked about but didn’t find it.

I solved the GP puzzles quite a while ago and have been waiting for a time to collect. Today was the day to make a start as my daughter had a flex day. The weather was perfect and we managed to get to 40 caches, with 34 finds and 6 DNF. We ran out of time to get the rest but will be back another day. Thank you ws cachers.

Sneaky TFTC

Had a rostered day off today so ventured off to complete this set of puzzles that were solved a while ago

This was was a sneaky hide! TFTC

During Covid lockdown I solved the the Glenmore Park Puzzles and at the start of 2021 I found the first few of the caches.
Today I decided to complete the trail for which I brought along the foldable bicycle to speed up travels between the caches.

All GPP caches were found fast thanks to the hints. Unfortunately some log sheets were wet and could not be physically logged.

Thanks for the series ws_cachers.

Spotted it without trouble.

Found as part of a fun romp through Glenmore Park (in the pouring rain) with Foreignnebula and Alucard Lacroix! Thanks very much to ws_cachers for this wonderful puzzle and cache series! It’s great to finally be able to stretch the caching legs and get back in the swing of things!

Canberra Day Long weekend Day 1. Sydney. After a weekend trip to Sydney last weekend there was an old cache we wanted to visit, so another trip was scheduled for today. I was joined by Fitzy_1965 & MinnieK for a day trip this time. We started with the GPP-G caches near Penrith before heading to Kuringai National park for a walk for three caches and a bonus Community Event in Frenchs Forest. The day ended with a fun multi near Manly. Then the dash home again for two more busy days of caching out of Canberra.

This set of puzzles was solved before we headed up and presented a fun challenge to solve, and some were quite interesting hides. Only one DNF, but that was a muggle not a failed to find.

Thanks for the cache ws_cachers

**Albida**

Daytrip to Sydney with fitzy_1965 and albida33.

Solved these through the week. Other than being muggled out at GPP G01, all were found quickly and easily unless otherwise stated. Signed as MK, F65 & A33 to save space.

This one took us about 5mins....thanks to the clever hint.

23,737. Found with minniek and albida33 during a day trip up to Sydney for some quality caching.

After having an enjoyable weekend in Sydney last weekend, and seeing another Community Celebration Event happening, the three of us decided to head back up to Sydney, grab a series of puzzle caches we'd solved in Penrith, find and replace a damaged very old cache, the attend the event. This was the next find of the day. When I spotted this GeoArt of puzzles I quickly solved The G and the first P. The second P we will finish off in slow time. This one took a little more time than the others, but then we came up with the nicely hidden cache. Despite being a Saturday morning and all the muggles were out doing their lawns etc we were completely ignored - awesome ! Signed the log (mainly as F65 MK A33), replaced the cache as found, then headed off to the next one.

Thanks ws_cachers !! I'm really enjoying this series ! We'll be back to finish it off soon !

I looked; I felt. Are you sure this is only 1.5D? DNF .

Took me a whole hour to find that. The hint was accurate although very deceptive and almost made it harder to find. Fantastic hide. TFTC

Not our day. Lost the nack.

Unable to find today, 32 finds 5 DNF's

Decided to check out a few more of these guys this afternoon and on arrival at the first on the list there were a few flashes and a rumble a fair way away.
Here I checked the hint and read the previous seekers log but I think they were wrong in assuming it was missing because of work going on in this area. I think the temporory fence will disappear in time but the fence where the cache is located will be permanent and the cache was soon located, signed and returned with the required camo applied.
Thanks for placing these caches for us to find.

Have checked on this cache today and it is still in place

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

CO check required as there is maintenance happening in the area.

We have travelled from Sydney’s Northern Beaches to Emu Plains for a short 4 day caching holiday, staying in a park cabin at the Ingenia Nepean River BIG4 Holiday Park at Emu Plains, and are planning to explore the areas around Emu Plains, Penrith, Glenmore Park, Cranebrook, Castlereagh, Lapstone, Glenbrook, and Blaxland. Will be concentrating our efforts on collecting the Glenmore Park Puzzle GeoArt and the Puzzled Hearts GeoArt caches, all of which we had solved before leaving home, and also hoping to complete the local Adventure Labs along the way. This was our 10th find of the day, and 10th find of the holiday.

This one was next along the Glenmore Park Puzzle GeoArt trail, and it was a reasonably quick find, but it did take a bit longer than the others so far. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC ws_cachers.

Find #4078

This was my third attempt at this hide. I thought I had thoroughly searched all possible hiding spots and presumed that the cache was missing but apparently not, as it was still being found. After looking unsuccessfully again I sought guidance from a previous finder. This one completely fooled me even though I had done this type of hide before. A simple but great hide.

TFTC

Found. Great series. Tftc

#7267 (1 of 6 today)

After some calendar finds today, so headed back to Glenmore Park where I have plenty of solved puzzles.

Decided I'd start with a previous DNF - well actually a double DNF. Third time lucky there. Then finished the *GPP P1* series.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
A lot of workers vehicles near GZ today - and they provided good cover for a detailed search.

I'd had three different possible hide types in mind here. On my previous attempts, I'd tried all of them and spotted nothing. Sigh.

Today I started where I had the last two times. Still nothing. Then moved to... oh, there it is. Well, I'm sure I checked here, and it was one of the hide types I expected. But today it was a bit exposed.

Completed signing duties and replaced, with extra camo, and then away to my next target.

DNF expunged!

My only DNF for the afternoon. Plenty of construction vehicles nearby which impeded my search somewhat but a fairly quick look in accordance with the hint failed to turn up the goods.

Spent some time today on this series of caches with ilook4geo. We had a good run and the caches were found to be in good order. There was no problem in finding this one. Thanks to ws_cachers for creating this series of puzzle caches that are not too hard to do. Thanks for the variety of cache placements too. This series will probably go a long way to finding the wonders of the world, both modern and ancient.

Enjoyed this series with goingplaces2 doing the solving and both joining in the hunt and finding part. The series was well worth doing. TFTC.

found with geomonster10... catching up on my logging

4th find for today
TFTC

Tftc

This took us ages to find! TFTC

This one was definitely a trickier hide.
I had one idea of what the hint meant but couldn't find anything of that type. I have a cache in my caching hide repertoire that matches this one's hint so I thought I'd try that approach and then it was easy. Yep same hide!

There's some great Aussie views from this location. I hope it stays this way and all that earth moving just along the road doesn't mean this area will be subdivided and developed into more housing. After all they have called the area "Highland Views'!

TFTC # 4120

This find was a bit tricky for me. Found it today (previously no luck) but only after double checking and updating my coords. Thanks for the cache

OCW Oldmorty with the sun back out and it was my first attempt at GeoArt. Not being a natural puzzle solver, Oldmorty suggested I may have some luck with this series and so over the weekend we eventually managed to solve all.
It’s interesting to see the contrast of new residential living flanked by paddocks still.
We ended up finding all the caches and were tested by one or two. Thanks for for the series and for the varying containers. Really enjoyed it and I hope they all live a long life so all the new residents can enjoy in the future.

Headed west with morty8888 to tackle this series of caches.

All puzzles were solved over a wet weekend. Some were solved quickly, others a little longer and one or two some help was needed.

Most of the caches were found quickly, however, we had to have two goes at one opposite a bus stop - too many muggles waiting for a bus the first time.

Thanks for the variety of puzzles and placement of the caches ws_cachers.

#901
This was the eighth of 30 finds for the day. After finding ‘GPP G06’, Mizmaz and I noted that driving to this cache wouldn’t take long, and we parked right next to GZ. Having solved the easy puzzle earlier, we were concerned that given the construction, that the cache may not be there. This one took a little more patience to finally locate as it was hidden slightly differently to what we were expecting. SL. TFTC.

Pointed out this geoart to a friend soon after G was published (as it was “just” within my notification radius though too far for his) and we both worked out our own quick solutions. Noticing later he’d ticked off the smileys without me, I didn’t tell him P1 was since active too and now I get to tick off G and P1 together while helping SarahFrances start/complete her Memory Lane Challenge. Though there were some similarities among hiding methods, there was also enough variety to keep us on our toes at times with the puzzles themselves simple and fun. Looking forward to the next P, hopefully in time for another trip up this way. To those seeking spoilers on individual hides, apologies for the generic log.

Day out in Penrith to find the Glenmore Park cache series. A lot of work has gone into creating the series. Drove around and quickly found and signed the cache logs. All quiet at night at each gz. Thanks heaps for the series.

A nice day out with family after solving the puzzles. signed as the Shoes X3. TFTC

Found this one on a scoot to find the Glenmore Park Puzzles with Sensible Shoes and Shoes Junior. Nice find after solving the puzzles a few weeks ago. Signed as 'the shoes x3' TFTC

TFTC, signed as The Shoes x3.

A quick solve on this puzzle lead to a beautiful location at GZ. We could hear cows moo-ing in the distance.
A sneaky hide which took us a few minutes to locate.

Quick find with Ris768 thanks ws_cachers for placing & maintaining this series

Streak Day 1275

Quick find with Deep_99 to keep the streak going. SL #4543 on streak day #2915 TFTC

This afternoon at work i was mentioning that id be heading out west to grab a cache. When i said that if be finding one in the Glenmore Park area she informed me that she actually lived in the suburb and her place was only a couple of minutes from this cache.
She expressed interest in seeing what geocaching was like so we organised to meet up at this one so i could show her.
After work i fought my way through the traffic arrived after sunset.
By headtorch light me and my muggle colleague searched the GZ and after only a minute found the cache.
We both signed the log.
Thanks.

**Total find count: 893** @ 22/06/2020 10:06:00 AM

We turned today into a geocaching date day. With the children enjoying themselves, some solved geocaching artwork, and a day off work, [crzymelly](https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?guid=42eace07-4982-45a4-a517-7bbff20be4dc) and I headed to Glenmore Park to find the two-thirds of the geoart currently published.

We had successful finds at all caches except one with muggles in close proximity. All caches had great coordinates, in excellent condition, and plenty of room to sign for future finders.

All in all, a great day out, an improvement on our find counts, and quality time with each other.

Thanks to ws_cachers for placing and maintaining this cache.

Met up with friends for a day outdoors. Collected a handful of finds in the Glenmore Park area. TFTC's.

Easy park 'n grab on the new trail. TFTC

Another cacher mentioned this series a few weeks ago so gave it a look one night and worked through this starting G,most looked very familiar so i managed to work through these without too much trouble which was great.
Today in between adventure labs we stopped into Glenmore Rise to grab what we could on our way,all turned out to be straight forward PnGs which was also great meaning we managed to find all 15 in less then an hour.
A very satisfying detour!
Thanks w.s cachers for the cache

Left home super early to grab this trail before going to visit my Mum in her 90th Birthday.

Find number 4813.

Another nice quick find.

Thanks ws_cachers for placing this cache.

Doing some caching in this pary of the workd today while my cuddle muggle visits her best friend. Another straightforward find here, pretty much where I expected it to be.

Thanks for the puzzle and hide ws_cachers.

Tftc! An excellent location. Great view

Solved the puzzles for this series of caches and arranged with Martin Cousins for an early morning drive through this new part of Glenmore park before the residents woke. A quick park and grab cache here. Did the legals and replaced as found. TFTCM
Cheers dkmacca

Early start today arriving not long after daybreak with DKMacca. We netted all 15 without being muggled although we crossed tradies setting up for the days work on a few of these hides.
An enjoyable experience with another set of eyes which made short work of the area, thanks ws_cachers for placing these hides.

A quick find with a pretty view.

TFTC.

Solved the puzzles on the day they were published it was then a matter of time to come and get the caches. No one out so a chance for a quick find.

With cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache ws_cachers

With our longest caching slump now standing at 52 days and with the current easing of restrictions we decided to hit this series to us back into the game. Solved all of the currently released puzzles on the day of publication, so it was just a matter of collecting the prizes as we passed by today.

Found all of the caches we went for and with the cache in hand we signed the log before replacing as found. Both the log and cache container are in excellent condition. Thanks for the cache ws_cachers.

Found while doing an early cache run. A short search and then found it. My phone coords were spot on for once! Signed log and returned as found TFTC

#5304- This one took a bit for thomo31 and I to spot but we used the car as a decoy. Thanks

I was thinking that when the fence goes, the cache will go with it. Just a thought.

Published

This cache was nicely hidden. We found it thanks to very accurate coords. {FTF} Thanks for the puzzle and cache.

Noticed a new puzzle series out west. And there are no logs on it yet. Well, that's not going to last.
So I quickly ran through #1 to #7 and then headed out west to see what I could grab.

Started with a DNF, and almost finished with one. But when the dust had cleared I had three First2Finds and six finds overall.

First day like that in what seems a lifetime - in fact last day I got six finds was 25 March, not really that long ago at all actually.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Placed on temporary fencing - that's brave. Of course some fencing is more temporary than others.
Checked the spots I really shouldn't have stuck my fingers and plenty more besides but not for me. And it's only just been found!

No idea!
Second DNF for the day.

Found it
