I think the cache has been moved or something because people are saying it is hard so Im going to have to go check on it
I found it alright; completely xposed, after many windy days. Signed log & covered it with some camo easily recognised by most geocachers. T4TC:-)
26/7/2023 Find #6369
A solo day out and about today, I decided to grab a few caches in this area and clear the map a little.
My caching day was quickly coming to an end, so I began my return journey towards home, making one or two brief stops along the way.
A family was nearby riding bikes but paid no heed to me sitting taking a breather, especially when a helicopter hovered overhead. A quick find before dashing off once more.
Thanks for the cache Mr_rainboo.

I came to check on my cache with oskarm16 and it was full buried in the tree and had a toy bus in it so I think a kid found it or one of you really liked to bury it
This is the first cache I have found in a really long time. I haven’t had much time to do caching for a while. It’s a really rainy day at this beautiful park, but I had such a great time finding this cache. Thanks for bringing me to this lovely little hidden spot.
Attended an Event with geo-friends nearby and then off to get some caches, not to hard to find.

Caching today for some crazy souvenirs.
After the nearby event and coffee (of course) we headed out into the neighbourhood and found some more smiles.
Out caching with RoddyC, imbunda Patrol14.

Before attending an event today, I decided to find a few caches in the area. Lovely park and a quick find. Tftc
An Event brings us to Alderley, so it's just a short holiday over for some caching.
Nice quick find

This is a familiar park from previous caching visits, including one time when I was doing a massive JetSki of the neighbourhood on the trail of a cache which I knew had to be somewhere around (I was ultimately successful, but the cache is a fair way away from here!)
TFTC where all is fine.

After a lap around the tree, I quickly spotted the hide. Thanks for the fun Mr_rainboo
Took a first-time geocacher along with my kids so delighted to have an easy find for him!
I came out to check if anything was damaged or needed replaced but the cache is better then when it got placed
I had forgotten that I needed a cache for today to continue a streak I’m attempting, so I looked around the map at my options and this looked perfect for a night time raid. Parking proved to be the trickiest part of the adventure tonight. With the whole family joining in, the cache was very quickly located. Thanks Mr_rainboo

Out for a day of caching with KerriMG. Was driving nearly past here so had to stop for a look. Nice quick find here. Grabbed the TB? as I couldn’t get the cache to close properly with it in there.

Out with nikid1 today with a vague plan to head west to find some ad labs & caches. Made a quick stop in this nice little park & was lucky & found the cache in the first spot I looked.
Thanks for the cache Mr_rainboo

Quick find this morning on my way to work.
Working my way towards the first of the souvenirs for the third challenge.
Quick log book sign, return to its hide and adequate camo added before returning to the car for another day in the salt mines.
A big thanks to the cache owner for making this cache available to be found.
Cheers

I saw this cache published earlier in the month and then watched with interest the back & forth over incorrect coordinates…
With little time I used the alternate coords supplied by Davidwazza and made a beeline for GZ…
Once around and I had the cache in hand…
Thanks Mr_rainboo and welcome to the game…

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I had a flexible Friday off work, so a decision was made to head to Kedron for lunch, before detouring back into the CBD to grab baby Cottontail.
This area wasn't too far from home, but I was working when the geocache was published, so I missed the FTF rush. Funnily enough, I had also comprehended this park for a geocache hide, but it was in the list for possible hides within the area - a possible tree climb was one of those ideas. Like others, I managed to walk to the likely geocache area, and it wasn't long before the cache was found, but I had the coordinates about 22 m out. For those playing at home, my GPS indicated the cache to be at S 27° 25.514' E 152° 59.854'. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Mr_rainboo for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance. A Favourite Point for your choice of the small hiding nook, and further encouragement of hiding more caches in the area!
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

A (recently) rare day out caching. This morning with the delightful company of Ms T4. Targeting caches within 10ks of home and started here today. A quaint little park. Like others I found the cache in the big tree some 20m from posted coords.
Thanks Mr_rainboo for entertaining me at this location.

Sitting at home and I saw this new cache come out; I thought I would wonder over, as it was not that far away. I was not worried if I got the *FTF* or not really, I just needed to get a cache to keep my little challenge ticking over. Knowing there was a local cacher living just a street or two away I was in no hurry. I parked up, looked at the area, and thought this is a nice spot compared to how I remembered it as a kid. I read the hint and went to what I thought was the reference, not using the gps. I searched around and found the hide very quickly. I sat down and to my surprise, I saw that I was the first here, REALLY. I signed the log and replaced as found.
With that, I wondered over to the houses in the area and reminisced of the days as a kid up here.
Then a couple of favourable cachers turned up and it was a nice chat for 5 minutes before we all left. Thanks for the fun here I enjoyed the hunt.

T-Tech and I headed out to try for the FTF but spotted chamad as we arrived, and he had already made the find.
I had GZ out by 17 metres, but the Hint and Description put us in the right spot. TFTC, Mr_rainboo.

Found the cache in the obvious place but coordinates were out approximately 20 metres by my phone. I thought I had a chance at FTF but no…4th ?????
Everyone is saying the coordinates are off and I can’t update them but just go to the tree and look around
Out for what we thought may be an FTF but no chamad was already there 
Nice easy find, in a nice little park [^]

G'day,
Accurate co-ordinates are a fundamental of the [guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx?expand=1#coordinates). A hint and directions is not adequate:
>Get accurate GPS coordinates. The cache owner must visit the geocache location to get accurate coordinates with a GPS-enabled device.
A clear [how-to for updating co-ordinates is available here](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=61). Please update the co-ordinates to be accurate on this listing.
I've disabled this geocache to give you time to make any changes. When this is completed, feel free to re-enable once again.
Cheers,
Jingeri
