Couldnt find it

Couldnt find it storm was rolling in so had to leave will be back though

So hard

Looked for a good 30 minutes and didnt find, hard! Thanks for the hide though

I didnt think this through coming here on a Saturday morning - naturally there are people everywhere I might be back at a quieter time to search again!

Log full, but wrote over the top of some faded rusty section nice muggle free walk

So small and hard to find good spot

Dont get tetanus. Good find.

We didnt find it , we looked around everywhere but couldnt find it but I have a theory that someone has taken it with them.

Hard

TTC So good found . Little friend was found along the way they jumped on my hand Log full

A prickly find. Ta

Found with barreledover and Gambella. Log has full. Nice place though. TFTC

Quite a walk acoss the oval but successfully found it.....Log very full

While in the area, popped on over for this tricky find, difficult extraction for me too. Initialed MC over others, cheers

Spent most of my afternoon grabing caches, 1 out of 3 today, 2 DNFS Extra TFTC.

Also log book full on both sides

Second attempt we found it l, thanks to the clues In the activity log we knew what we were looking for, a quick throw on the ground helped crack the seal to be able to open it. TFTC Log Full needs replacing

I gave up

Quick find, difficult extraction. Found after watching grandson playing AFL. Log is full

Log is full

After weeks of searching we found it!!!!

I found this one tricky. Pig found ! Great hide. TFTC

Finally found a cache. Caching is harder in Sydney, not only dealing with traffic, but also figuring out how to get to caches, some behind fences, some in sports fields, some in front of prying houses, but once I figured out how to get into this sports complex, the only thing was a muggle not far behind me, so quickly found classic cache, signed a full log book and continued walking. Tftc

Found it , footy

Great little find after a day shopping at westfield. TFTC

Beautiful area (I didn’t even know existed), easy find once I started to expand my search area

Miserable wet day, managed to find this during a brief lull from the rain. Not a soul to be seen so no worries about muggles. Was almost about to go then spotted it. Great hide. This might well be a difficult one for first timers/those new to Geocaching but I loved it! Thanks for a great hide. Logbook needs replacing.

TFTC Good spot, didn't know these fields existed! Log book is full

Found on a very wet weekday. Place was deserted but for a few maintenance workers. Made our way to GZ at the toddlers pace, hoping the rain would stay light, but naturally it got a bit heavier just as we arrived!

We occupied the small geokids with admiring the cows in the field next to us, while we searched all the wrong places, then some slightly closer places. Finally I started checking the right places and quickly spotted the cache container.

It was very difficult to remove the log, which is in good condition but is full and needs replacing.

TFTC!

I'd studied the previous logs before arriving at this one, and thought I knew exactly where to find it, but I was wrong! Very sneaky. Thanks!

Nice cache. Very clever hide

Must be a good spot. Was here for 10 mins

Found It!
Just cricket and soccer happening here today. No (AFL) football so I wandered across the oval to GZ and found the cache after a short search.
TFTC

Great cache, whole family could enjoy this one. Thanks. Our finder for this one extremely happy with a yay we found it and excited to continue the hunt for more
Thank you.

Very clever

Great hiding spot. Love this one ??

Have walked past this cache on numerous occasions and have not been able to stop. Today with Robak65 we decided to stop and do this one. Have seen this type of hide before.
SL TFTC

Needed somewhere to test out the drone on this windy afternoon and thought we should grab a smiley at the same time. Walked to GZ and the spot on coords made for an easy find when you have seen this container before. Took a little search to find a suitable extraction tool but soon had the log in hand.
Now a full log but squeezed our mark on the end.
Found with Aussie CBRXX.
TFTC

Having my geocache senses out for a few months this one took a few minutes but was found fairly easily when I noticed something out of place.

Couldn’t get the logbook out as I didn’t have the right tools and therefore couldn’t sign sorry

This is a nice area to walk around TFTC

This is my first time seeing this type of cache in person, very cool! I was at the Central Coast Tiny House Expo and this was 50m away so very convenient. I'd recommend bringing tweezers to get the log out - I found a badge in my bag and managed to use the pin to pull it out but it took me about 5 minutes of wiggling it around.

Cache found without difficulty in the expected area.
Cache in good condition.
TNLNSL TFTC

No luck, I didn’t want to poke my hands down any holes as I saw 2 little skink lizards in one of the holes.
Maybe next time

Despite shopping at the Westfield for years we have never visited this park. Truth be told we didn't even know it existed until recently. Checking on the map, it looked like a good spot to bring the kids for some bike riding so we headed out after lunch. We had to dodge some field renovations but made it to GZ. No luck on our first pass as we were focusing on the wrong feature.

We went for another lap to have a think, and after checking some old logs we made a really quick find on the next loop around. We thought rust had defeated us for a bit there, but the container soon opened and we had the log in hand.

Thanks for the cache!

Thanks for the cache!

Great spot! Love it

Nice hide!
Thanks FLVCKO for placing Screwball!

We are on a five day holiday to the Central Coast, staying at the NRMA/Big4 Ocean Beach Holiday Resort (caravan Park) in Umina Beach. Looking to do some of the many Central Coast Adventure Labs, visit some previously solved Puzzle/Mystery cache GZs, and to collect any other caches we come across during our daily travels. Photos will be uploaded to logs on our return to home base.

Today is our last day of the holiday, and we will be heading for home, but we still managed to visit Gosford, Lisarow, Ourimbah, Wyong, Tuggerah, and Mooney Mooney Point. Completed an Adventure Lab, solved & found a Mystery/Puzzle cache, and collected numerous Traditional caches. This was the 14th of 16 finds for the day (day 5), and 90th find of the holiday.

Stopped off at this one, parking the geomobile in the playing fields parking area, then headed off across the wet & soggy playing fields to GZ. Found nothing at the posted coordinates, but then widened the search zone a tad and quickly spotted a familiar camo type a few metres away. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC FLVCKO.

Find #5597

Yess found it, great spot.

what a lovely sporting complex for the area. Took a little while but got there in the end, TFTC

A nice sneaky little hide, found by Bryzee. TFTC, FLVCKO!

Found with little roo and Tdimdad. Thanks for placing and looking after this cache FLVCKO !! TFTC
Happy Days

Wooo hooooooo another day another cache

Second times a charm
Finally found the cache today. Sneaky hide but a type that I was familiar with so after having read some past logs I knew what I was looking for and made the find at a time when the back field wasn’t in use

Finally found it. This one’s been bugging us for a few months, but today was the day! Great concealment. Very tricky.

Out today for the record attempt, TFTC

23/7/22 Great find, found easily but well hidden. No pen so took some pics.

Found it staitaway

Took some pretty serious searching but we found it!

found about a year ago with family, great cache

Good 20 minutes looking... Nothing

Works going on nearby

Tricky hide. Great cache!!

It’s very difficult to find with the environment around it, but it’s also sneaky…

It was absolutely pouring. But nice walk around the complex. Tftc

By Toutatis I finally found it!

This was my third visit to the park, on the first visit my geodog and I came on a tremendously hot day in the middle of summer, slogged it in from the main road, and I had no luck searching while the dog gasped in the shade. I thought I'd logged a DNF because I've been thinking since I'm the only noob who hasn't been able to find the thing.

My second visit was the other day, I drove in where you can park "while an event was on" and then bailed as the rugby training soon finished and I was concerned about the car being locked in.

Looking for hints on how the cache might be hidden, a single word in the Fish's log finally made the penny drop and I finally noticed the **HUGE BIG CLUE** that the CO clearly offers. I'm thinking I now know *exactly* what to look for. Yep, any previous finders reading this are going to do a big face palm right now.

So today was a lot milder, if a bit rainy, and geodog and I walked in from the main road. Walked past GZ at first as there were a couple of muggles. One lady muggle said to me "You're very cute..." and I thanked her. She continued "... and very white." OMG what's that some Tuggerah white supremacist codetalk? Then the man muggle says "Your dog is very cute too!" Well that makes more sense, I mean the geodog is small and cute, with fluffy white hair. So we double-back to GZ and I search and search, and even start to question how the cache might be hidden. Almost about to give up when I see *it*, phew! Log signed and replaced as found, TFTC!

Took a bit but then found the nice cache.

Nice camo.

Found

Found with geo family

A quick detour to find this one after a visit to bunnings. It's good to see such well kept sport facilities. Makes me wish I still played football.

No problems making this find which was a relief after having DNFd one nearby. Luckily, I was able to park near the amenities building so that halved my walk.

Thanks for the hide FLVCKO.

Thought I'd do a cache on my way home. Nice easy cache, nice camo.What an amazing, set of fields. TFTC,

Found the cache pretty quickly however I couldn't sign the log as I used my pencil to scrape the dog poo off my shoe on the way to the cache

Good little hide... didn't take too long TFTC

This place is huge. Nice cache. Thanks

I arrived at GZ with my geo-grandson, MagicMan*, and began to search. Magicman* found something just off the path that required further investigation. Now I'm not sure what the purpose of that item is but in the end, we decided it wasn't the cache. I went back to the posted coordinates and soon spied something worth a look. MagicMan* did the retrieval and our names are now imprinted on the log. My first find for the current Reach The Peak promotion. Thanks for the geofun FLVCKO.

Out with my geo-Poppy to find just this one cache while my mum and Nanny did some shopping. It took us a few minutes to find the cache as I saw something else that may have been the hide. Our names are now in the log. Thanks.

Found with GroJess and Muggle wife. Trivia: I have played Baseball for NSW and can actually throw a Screwball. It hurts like hell to throw and moves from left to right for a right hand thrower. TFTC!

A quick and easy find, after the stroll from the parking area. Found with eemiaj, signed log as BE5150. TFTC

My family are in a post-lunch Christmas day food coma, so I snuck out to find a cache whilst in NSW.

Luckily I have a cache with the same container and was able to make a quick find.

Thanks.

We have never been to these facilities, very impressive. After parking outside we took the pleasant but hot walk around the ovals and soon reached the search area with no onlookers anywhere to be seen. A check of the area where the GPS was indicating showed me a sneaky but familiar container which was soon logged and replaced. Thanks for a good hide and nice walk on a very hot day.

Found with shaneo58, doing some caches around the Central Coast. Looked like rain for the whole day but luckily it held off. Nice speedy find after a workout walk to get here
Signed log and Cache replaced as found.
**Thanks For The Cache** FLVCKO.

This makes the 10th cache of 10 for today making a grand total of 3422 at 3:24PM on this Thursday the 16th of December in the Year 2021

A fair work to GZ but cache was found quickly with good coords. TFTC FLVCKO.

I come up to the Central Coast a couple of times a month and one of the places we visit is Pioneer Dairy. Looking at the geomap this morning I noticed this new cache which is very close to the dairy where we had lunch today.
Unfortunately you can no longer get across Tuggerah Creek and get to this area from the dairy. Years ago you could!

So after our activity finished I drove round to the nearest parking to this cache, which was about as far away as I was at lunchtime, about 550m, but was a 6km drive away.

After my hike around the new and uncompleted sporting fields I arrived at GZ and began to search. Well despite previous logs stating the co-ordinates were spot on I had quite a bit of trouble finding the cache.
I relied on the D/T rating but this is not a T1 hide - you could not reach the cache if you were in a wheelchair which is what T1 means, its a T1.5. The hide is quite sneaky so I would suggested D1.5.

After forgetting about the D/T and just searching as usual I found the cache.

I stopped for this cache on my way to work to day. No muggles around today and it was a quick find thanks to accurate co ords. Thanks for the cache tnln replaced as found sl

I walked around and around and then around and around here everyday for exercise with my dog during covid lockdown. When this place was being constructed I wondered when a cache will turn up, so I cant believe I never bothered to check if there was ever one placed here! I don't know why the ovals are being re dug up, they looked perfectly fine to me on my daily walks but then I'm no sportsman. The cache took me longer to find than it should have. Sneaky. It was in the first place I looked and dismissed whilst I searched elsewhere. Good hide. TFTC

A cheekily little hide but got there in the end. Watched some cricket being played on the grounds while we were here. Great for the game to see such strength in women’s comps. TNLN TFTC

FTF! Decided to make the late trek to Tuggerah when seeing the FTF was still up for grabs. Eerily quiet at the fields, though occasionally broken up by some speeding cars down the road. When we got to GZ it was a quick find. Thanks for the cache
