UGH ... I was in this area at the beginning of January and didn't take the time to walk down for a look. Today, I rocked up couldn't see a thing. Then discovered several DNFs before me.Don't put off until tomorrow ... what you are able to do today ...
Given the co-ordinates being in the middle of the street, theres only a couple of realistic options. And given that this makes me the 5th consecutive DNF (two of whom have finds numbering in the 000s) this cache really needs a look-at.
No luck for me here today.I suspect even if I had spotted something I wouldnt have been able to reach it.
Looks like it may be gone. Might be worth a owned visit to confirm after 2 DNF'S.
We are on another short (three day) caching holiday in and around Camden, staying for two nights in a park cabin at the Poplar Tourist Park in Elderslie. Hoping to collect some more previously solved Mystery/Puzzle caches and complete some of the new Adventure Labs that have appeared since our last visit to the area. The homeward journey will be via Sydney Olympic Park for the Geocaching NSW GIFF Event GIFF 2023 - Sydney Olympic Park. Photos will be uploaded to some (most) logs on our return to home base.Today (day 3) started with a successful return visit to yesterday's DNF at Camden, then some caching around Camden South and Spring Farm, where we made finds on a mixture of Traditional caches and some previously solved Mystery/Puzzle caches. We then started our journey homeward, going via the M5 Motorway & A6 Arterial, stopping off at Sydney Olympic Park for the Geocaching NSW GIFF Event GIFF 2023 - Sydney Olympic Park.This was the 5th of 26 finds for the day (day 3), and 49th find of the holiday.This cache was next, arriving at GZ and making a nice quick find in the first place we checked. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. The log is in a bit of a mess and needs replacing, and it's very full, but we still managed to squeeze our mark into a tiny blank spot. TFTC Macka4867.Find #6454
This morning I was sitting around the house trying to do something. I decided to look at some puzzles. I found some that looked doable. I started and with the help of Mr D and Team BB we figured out most of them.Team BB went out with me but later left me on my own. It's fun to work on a puzzle that's doable but not some of these crazy ones like we have back home.Doing the parade of mysteries! Had to make a detour and come over here to get this one. Us vertically challenged people are not specially adept at these but it came in my direction. It does need a new log. Not exactly prepared for that.Tfth dictaham and clan
Passing through the area today and decided to take a break and collect a cache. I didn't have a lot of time so was looking for a quick park-and-grab situation. This one seemed to fit the bill so I pulled off the main road to try my luck.
I arrived at GZ and had a look in the direction of the cache and figured there was only really one place it could be. I headed straight for it and immediately saw it hiding. I retrieved it and got to work signing the log. The log was pretty full, so I squeezed my name in above another. I then returned everything as found and headed back towards the main road, happy to have a quick find under my belt for the day.

We came here a couple months ago but could at find so today I decided why not get a quick cache in before school and low and behold tadaaa! Found it!
Found it on day 2 of my focus on South Camden caches. Struggled with this one - couldn't spot it anywhere - until I used a geotool to raise my eyeline quite a bit and then it was obvious.
Got it down with another geotool, but struggled to return it. It ended up close to it's original position but in not exactly the same spot. The log needs replacing anyway so maybe the CO can put it back properly for me.
TFTC!

The log currently in this cache is a small one provided by another cacher, and it's full. Please replace it - and return the cache to the right spot for me while you're at it? Thanks Macka!

A quick find here, but the guy in the house opposite looks a bit shifty.
Thanks for the cache

First Christmas with my partners family, far from home, freaking out. This little find made us giggle. Thank you for saving Christmas.

Went to Camden last minute as I spotted the event today. Changed direction and ended up in Camden for some free wheeling caching.

Almost didn’t spot it thanks to the glare. Set off the dogs at the place I parked in front of had to again use a TOTT to retrieve as I’m just short TFTC
Quick find here today. Out and about to get the numbers up after a quiet few months of course.
#5948- After looking at the GPS, thomo31 and I spotted it in the obvious place. Thanks
I feel bad for having nothing else to log but - I saw it, signed it and replaced it. It all just happened too fast!
In the area this morning to complete the Camden Mother's Day Classic, I decided to take the opportunity to grab the last cache in this PT series. An easy find, however I had to wait to grab it as the muggle neighbours across the road were having a Mother's Day gathering on their verandah. Once the log was signed and rolled back up, it was another wait to replace as they were all outside saying their goodbyes. Tftc and happy Mother's Day Macka!
Another perfect day for caching and Oldmorty and I headed to Camden. Thi really is the country meets the city and no longer a well kept secret. I have worked around the area 20 years ago and much has changed but much has stayed the same. You can taste the fresh air.
All the caches in the Camden South Trail were found quite easily and the drive around the hood was lovely. Camden is blessed with a park almost every 400m. Thanks for the cache trail and look forward to more visits here.TFTCs! street. Street sign

Off to Camden on this lovely sunny Autumn day with morty8888 for a days caching. Our principle target being the Camden South Trail and an handful of other caches if time permits. We both enjoy visiting the Camden area and particularly the area that the trail took us with its stylish houses and manicured nature strips. We were also astounded by the number of beautifully kept parks and playgrounds.
With the generous hints and some similarity with the hides the bright new cache containers were mostly found by one of us in a shortish time.

After two DNFs in a row, I was hoping to break the streak. We walked initially in the wrong direction while trying to avoid a group of muggles with a pit bull in tow. But eventually located the little cache.
OCW Littl3Vix and we had decided to grab one each from the trail that the other had already found. This was the best place and this was a super easy park and grab with good coords. And its been a long week, I originally got my dates mixed up, Littl3Vix had a good laugh when she told me!!
Last cache for the day for us. Will have to come back and finish the rest another time. Really enjoyed walking the streets of South Camden. Those corner blocks are just enormous and the lawns and gardens of the majority of people are just impressive. Thanks for the tour!
Particularly well hidden if that’s where it started, was about to do a dnf, when looked at an angle and there it was, returned to finding spot, last in the series, tftc
Coordinates were a tad off but once we knew what we were actually looking for it was a quick find. TFTC
#7787 (8 of 22 today - including 7 Adventure Labs)
And another day in my "need more finds" month.
The Geowife has made arrangements for lunch and so I headed south to Camden to complete a trail and grab some other caches, including solved mysteries. Went back and forth a little, and left some caches for a future day.
Got everything I went for - except my last stop. And grabbed seven ALs on the way.
And so far this month I'm averaging over 9 finds a day. Never got close to that over a whole month - something to keep an eye on!
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Quick find, sign and replace here.
Back to the car for some atomic strength repellent!

We cycled back today to grab this cache. Good exercise for us seniors. Thankyou Macka4867 for this series which has not only given us some incentive for exercise but also given us a tour of Camden South.
{FTF} 9.00pm on the dot! After dinner tonight I went to check my emails and was surprised to see a couple of new caches that got posted a bit later on. With no current finds, i put on my shoes and grabbed my keys for a quick geoventure. This one was nice and easy and caused no problems at all. A fresh log was what i was greeted to so I SL and replaced. TFTV!
