Under Bund...

Re: Banned Trigs/caches
More detail about what I found. The sad thing is that it's such a missed opportunity to showcase the park. It could easily be a major attraction if the bureaucracy would just wake up to the possibilities.

Re: Banned Trigs/caches
Quick check this week reveals that NSW NPWS have secretly removed the chain and posts from the rock scramble at the summit of Mt Warning. The current temporary closure supposedly for safety appears a con. The posts and chain and the footings were all up in serviceable condition and the summit is acc...

Re: Banned Trigs/caches
The following from an information sheet for Mt Warning dated Nov. 2020. This does not look good for continued access at Mt Warning. If this continues expect access to Nat parks to be limited to paved footpaths not far from the car park, and forget about placing physical caches. Again please find tim...

Sydney...Crosslands..Boardwalk Empire
Walking at Crosslands today and while walking over the first boardwalk from the Crosslands end spied a familiar shape in a recently broken up stump just next the Boardwalk. Jumped down and sure enough. a 200ml Sistema clearly marked Geocache with a readable label that read "Boardwalk Empire". The bo...

Re: Garmins foray into geocaching has ended
Went to search for one still in my Gps last week in Kuring-gai.Couldn't find it, but then again if I did there would have been no way to log it. Some contempt that they do not seem to have made arrangements to relocate caches with ground speak or other listing sites, like GA. Though this one would n...
