What a noisy park due to the M1, what a prickly tree! No cache found (I didn't check the logs before going...)
See not found log.
A few months and DNFs since this was nabbed.
Cache check required.

It's Oz Comic-con time again, and so I needed to deliver Geoson #2 to the door at White Bay so he could work on one of the stands.
This meant an early start in an area I don't cache in that often, so despite the fact I've been very light on Saturday finds recently - evening up finds on each day of the week (still lots of work to do on that though) - i decided to go for a lot of finds today. In particular, I was looking at one puzzle I'd finally solved a little while ago and an assault on my old alma mater the UNSW.
In the end I got 15 finds amid a few DNFs and a "can't get this to work" multi.
A good day.

Not found since May.
I couldn't spot it either in any of the limited number of hides.
Needs a cache check.

[?] CO please replace the cache or archive it. I would love to get a smiley for walking the dog. [?]
On our way to Mascot for pick my brother's luggage from the Sydney Luggage shop. Anyway sevabo and I stopped here then walked to the right GZ and sevabo found the cache. TFTH
Great day out for caching with skyejam - enjoyed this area. Thanks for bringing us here ★★★
Cute little reserve and clever hiding spot, although I suspect the terrain rating could be increased by half or a full star. SL TFTC The Ozkateers!
After working out motorway access to this one is a no go and the car GPS trying to send us around that way again we managed to find the appropriate approach angle.
Strolled to GZ where the perfect coords left no doubt as to the hide and spotting some thing that wasn't quite right we had CIH SL TFTC

This was a good hide.
Actually this would be a good place to walk when the traffic on the neighbouring road was quiet. It's a good path with well maintained surrounds.

Stopped off after a night shift to grab this one. Not a muggle, not even the K9 variety, to be seen on this fine & sunny Sunday morning. A quick find once at GZ. TFTC.
Tftc iveski and crawshaw found on a beautiful sunday 3 from 3 introducing crawshaw to geocashing and I think his converted thanks to todays chaches!!!
Zip log bag had a little tear
Canister lid tiny cracks and logs filling
No dramas just had nothing on me to fix with...so a heads up soon might need supplies

Older logs were all scrunched up in the base of the cache and were getting damaged. Probably need to be removed. Thanks again!
Quick find in the dark with my phone torch, only very occasional cycling muggles. TFTC!
Nice easy find in a cute little park.
Weather is lovely today.
Thanks for the cache!

Found it on the way home from work. Had no pen tho. Prolly drop by tomorrow. Tftc
First find! Don't really understand the 'people in wheelchairs can see it' part of the hint!
X i piccoli come me ... Difficile vederlo .... Ma cé il marito che aiuta.... Il Mio primo Cache in Australia
Took a little while as the cache is well hidden. Had to think about camo . Tftc. Fastshoe and Kath
Quit a walk from the hospital! But the weather was working with me and I enjoyed the time away from hospital.

I had a few hours to spare between work commitments and my flight home to NZ this afternoon so decided to go and find a few caches on my way to the airport. Didn't have Fozzie our geodog with me today - he has to stay home in Nelson - but I'm sure he would have enjoyed this place to explore. No problems with the cache. Retreated to a nearby seat to sign the log before returning it to its hiding place. TFTC, Biggles.
Found this geocache a while back but never posted a comment! Easy but difficult to find at the same time, as to the hard description unless it had been moved!
Found this one nice and easily - TFTC! Found with my geo-brother TaroonaTribe from Hobart!
Thanks for taking me to a really nice spot and a geocache that's a bit different. Lots of kookaburras enjoying the sun.
We needed another quick for the day so being near we stopped and made our way over. A short walk in amongst many a dog walker. We soon spotted something but quiet right and then with a break in the muggle removed the camo to make the find. We then realised we had left our pen in the car so had to go back to completed the signing duties. TFTC

I have lived around the general area my whole life, and never been through here before, ty for sending me here and tftc
2nd cache. took a while because gmaps gave me house address instead of exact position. rookie mistake. looking forward to the next one. sl tftc
Easily spotted but I still had to wait for some dog walking muggles to clear the area. TFTC.
I was in the area on other caching business and saw this this one was a short walk up the footpath. So I decided to extend my lunchhour by another few minutes and hone in on the cache. There is the constant buzzing of traffic along the way. The cache was found at a nice height for my line of vision, I was glad that none of the caches that I found today involved getting down and dirty as I was not suitably attired.

Had a couple of drinks at the eastlakes local and felt like a little walk. Easy enough to find.
My first find!
Loved that it was easy to find, giving me confidence to keep going with this hobby. I tried two others unsuccessfully, so was very happy with this find.
There was a pretty polished stone in it, but I'd not taken anything to swap, so had to leave it. I'll be more organised in the future.

Touched that you guys have set up a community roll of bags for doggy doodoo's. Quick pick up, I mean cache not droppings, SL TFTC
6/04/13 5:04 PM. Cache #535. Current streak: 209 days. After the Swans beat the Suns, I found myself with a couple of hours spare and the car to myself. Hmm...what to do...what to do. Didn't take long to drive down here from the SCG, parked in the nearby no-through-rd and walked up to the likely hide. With the hint, I already knew the right altitude. Good to get this one; the very bottom of Sydney council and one of my last few from that group. TFTC }:)
One of those where it’s best to enter a street address off google maps rather than rely on co-ords alone as parking would have been impossible the way the car gps initially took me. Easily spotted what looked like an odd placement in the tree but turned out to be several rolls of doggy-doo bags…. What-tha? Moved around a little and spied the real camo. CO may make allowances for those in wheelchairs to record a find without reaching it, but shorter people may also struggle a bit with the one star terrain rating.
Fotolog. Many peoples and dogs around. Better not to do when everybody is free...
This was one of those caches I had always intended on looking for when coming out this way when going to the airport. For whatever reason it never happened. Anyway, did a bit of search and found a stash of garbage bags. Found the cache OK in its spot. Still some room on a second log sheet to sign.
Eventually found it! Scratched my hands way too much given how simple this one was :) the log was full so only a e-log this time. Added a 1 czech crown coin to the 1 oz$
A quick stop and grab after being muggles out at one nearby. Terrain is a 1.5 but you have made allowance for wheel chair well done. TFTC

Found at the (accurate) co-ordinates. Was a $1 coin in the cache but I left it there. SL
I'm new at this - first cache I didn't need the hint for. Thanks for introducing me to this hidden park I pass close by so often.
Found this one whilst waiting for muggles to move from the previous cache location! great hide too me a while to find it.
