Geocaching Australia

I'm wondering if anyone can help with with some background information about the old trigs in Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.

Hi Yurt, D1/T3.5: GCH7J5, GC14E1F, D4.5/T1: GC3RWAM, GC3BEAF [edit: GC3RWAM is lame and doesn't deserve the D/T rating - give it a miss. Oh no!! The Cache Rant has been temporarily disabled! Just after I nominated it for Geocaching NSW "Cache Of The Month"] D4.5/T4: GC19NHK, GC2C57 Found using Geosp...

Thanks for the quick reply c@w. I had been resending the same log to test if it was working which explains why it worked once and then not again.

I'm trying to upload my field notes from Geoshpere on the iphone. I'm only just setting it up and it's not working properly.
