Weirly here Redridge, Queensland, Australia
By danandlil on 25-Apr-07. Waypoint GC12E6R

Appears the floods may have gotten this one. I am archiving it to free up the location which is worth a look at and is largely unknown except to locals.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Hasnt been looked at for some time

Fairly certain we found it, but it appears that the floods may have washed it away. There is only one large tree right at GZ. Searched right around the base. Excavated the hole in the base on the side facing the track. No luck.

Also, when you go to check it, stop at the spot where all the rubbish is and there's room to park because just down the hill the floods have washed a section of dirt complete with growing tree into the middle of the track. We had to reverse back up the hill.

Logging a find for this one but in reality there appeared to be no cache to find. We will upload photo's in the next few days. If the owner is unhappy with this please feel free to delete this log and we will return at some point in time when it is confirmed the cache is in place. At the moment you really need a four wheel drive to get into this one or walk in. TFTC

Nice little out of the way place. Pity about the rubbish along the way. TFTC

This was our 6th cache in our caching run today - and we found it at around 12:50.
(So this is our 4875th total find.)

This could be a wonderful spot. It is a great pity that lots of people think that the trak in is a great spot to dump their rubbish.

Took: Nothing
Left: Crocodile
Thanks danandlil for the hunt today.

found this cache today at 0900.
The track in was ok but I don't think I would try it without a 4x4, or at the very least a conventional vehicle with high ground clearance.
It has been dry here for a couple of months but was lightly raining when I drove into this cache.
water was flowing over the nearby weir, and it was a pleasent outlook.
The coords took me straight to GZ and the cache was found quickly.
I signed the log and removed a seed of something that someone had left in the cache container, as it was green and mouldy. Other than that the cache was in good order and well hidden.

This cache always seemed "too out of the way" whilst I had been travelling past. I decided to bite the bullet and grab it today.

TomTom told me to go down a certain road. Is this right? It seemed to match the description. Hmmmm - I am very glad I bought the Pajero for this one - the road was a bit rotten in places. I stopped at about 150m from the cache - I had a kayak on top - and the road looked most average going down the hill.

I trotted down toward GZ and found the cache almost instantly. It was in great condition. A very interesting weir as well - how a shopping trolley got down here I don't know. TFTC danadil

A nice quiet spot by the water. Pity that the track-side gets used as a rubbish tip. Cache in good order, thanks.

1028. Located on our second visit (Previously called between it floating away and the replacing - Thanks Ozibags ) Great spot for smoko. danandlil-TFTC

Took the wrong track at first but was rewarded with some nice photos in a lovely spot. Found the right track and cache was fairly easily located with the hint. Took nothing - left a Happy to Bee Here. SL TFTC

Checked all the likely spots for a long time and no container to be seen. Hasn't been found for a while (before the floods last summer) so I'm assuming it has gone. So I got one of my spare containers and logbooks and re-hid it closest to the coords and the hint that I could find. Apologies if the original container is still around the area somewhere.

Signed the new log (in the new container I placed). Had to think carefully about the entry point for my 2WD geomobile! Stopped short of GZ as the road was deteriorating and walked the rest of the way. Just as well as there's really no suitable turning-around area at the end of the track. TFTC danandlil.

Took wrong track, but eventually found it. 

This was an interesting cache, beautiful location once we found the right road. A resonable amount of water in the swimming hole at present. Disappointed that the trackable was not in the cache as mentioned in the previous find by throttlejocky. It appears that another cacher took it without logging the details.

Bit of a hike after taking wrong track.

Dropped off T.B.

When I eventually found the right road in found GZ at 1415. Easy find once at GZ. TNLNSL TFTC

Found on the way home from a few days caching in Bundy and Hervey Bay. TFTC

Managed to pick the right route in and found the cache at 1210hrs. Enjoyed a brew beside the river before moving off.

I really very interesting drove through bush and dirt muddy track and stop about 200 mtrs from the cache spot was height long grass can't through and around the creek difficulty walking so I gave up try next time other way somehow.Thanks.

A pleasent out of the way spot. Thanks for the cache

Easy find, great spot to play with the 4WD. Passed some guys going fishing for bream, they seemed to be doing okay. Thanks for a cache that is off the beaten track literally. Took nothing, left warriors card. TFTC Dusty Pair & Geokid.

Gorgeous spot in the middle of nowhere. The dirt track on the way in is quite eroded and I suggest 4WD only. We took a green jeep and left a yellow egg. There was plenty of water at the weir and it's a lovely spot for morning tea before carrying on to more caches. TFTC

What an adventure that was, Drove to the Cache after all the rain we had. The track was wet with lots of huge pot holes and water crossing.
Took the TB and left some toys and good luck coin. TFTC
The weir today was overflowing.

Just a quick stop to check out condition of cache and dropped off TB

First ever geocache find after our fatefull accidental find 2 years ago. Took a bit of tie to find it, and got luck after walking away in frustration. Was a good lesson for a newbie, never give up and don't expect to find the cache where you think it should be

Took a Koala keyring, and left a funky Jazz CD (Mr Confuse), hope its still in working condition when some finds it.

Found it

Great spot. Thanks for the time and effort put into placing and maintaining the Cache.

Found on way to Bundy. Had trouble turning the geo4WD around tight space.

Stopped in and grabbed this one on the way home from Hervey Bay. Mrs. Fuddley would not drive the car down the last 100m so we walked the rest of the way, great spot TFTC

What a great spot to find, easy in the 4WD but not sure I would want to get too close in a car. Very out of the way but quite interesting the train went over the bridge while we were there.Taken soft plastic lure and left Keyring.

found it tftc tnln. i had fun walking across the wier. yay

Found no troubles, in the company of hothead TFTC

Found it .. at last we got to get it .. plenty of mozzies ..Took nothing and Chinese Coins

I headed down the bitumen till I could go no further. Someone had left their train parked across the road [:o]
So I headed off down the dirt track and before long found a convenient parking spot at the top of a steep hill. After checking out the railway bridges I headed off for a short stroll to find the weir. I guess the drought is over, as there was a healthy flow of the wet stuff cascading over the wall today
TFTC and detour to a scenic little spot

08:58 Whilst on a recent trip to Bundaberg for Easter I managed to locate the cache.
Nice little unknown location interesting in the commodore.
Thanks for the cache

1145hrs. Well worth the detour. Had a snack at the weir. Water flowing today. TNLNSL TFTC

Very cute location once you've negotiated the track. Make sure you take the track on the Bruce Highway side of the railway line, we crossed the railway, took the next track and ended up in Deliverence country. Second find for the day took ball left Westfield card. TFTC

An old chook visited

Easy find after driving in on a sludgy road after recent rain. Took nothing, Left Yo Yo. TFTC.

First find for Mrs water rat who can along for the drive. Nice spot - out of the way. Took pig, left m/cycle. TFTC

In the footsteps of BRC this was a relatively easy 'drive by', even with the caravan on behind. It's a shame when some people use the bush for a rubbish tip though.

Dropped in on the way down to the Cooroy Coffee Conclave. A nice easy find, but fun getting to on a road bike. Grabbed the U4DTB. But by coincidence, of all the diabetes TB's, and of all the caches out there, this TB happens to be the one I had sent to me and put out. So it has come full circle, attended the event, and returned to the place it started its journey from. Groundhog day, I hear you say.

Thanks for the cache.

Cheers

found by bevfre 10.45am left pig took teddy bear.thank you.

... been down this road before ....
anyway found easily (thank goodness - the little detour was going to blow my ETA, and I was allready running late).
Signed log, swapped bugs, and dashed back to the Highway.
TFTC

Found at 12:35hrs. Interesting spot. Drove up to GZ.
Left blue ball.
Took skate board.

TFTC. SL.

Dropped TB Ramstein.

Mhhh. Only two previous finds. So where did the obvious geotrail come from, which I followed bush-bashingly until I discovered I could have driven all the way...
When I reached cache site, I heard strange noise from the direction where car was parked, and decided to abandon search and make sure I had transport out of this place. Turned out to be an old 4WD, which of course had to drive down to cache site. I left to find (was unsuccessful) Happy Hoppy cache, and when I returned the cache was mine!
TFTC!

Easily found.For a bit of fun with a fourby you can get out by following the track over the river xing, turn right under the railway bridge and follow the track west. Turn left at the T intersection just past the houses to get back onto the Bruce Highway. Pretty easy except when wet .

I guess this is our first, first to find!!! YAHOOOOOOO!!!
No problems here. Found without incident. The amazing colour of the shells at this place are wonderful! No surprises though........
We took the geocoin, hopefully we'll get to Brizy this weekend, and it will be on it's travels!
Left a koala from Gladstone.

After a bit of a rest this travel bug is back on the move, hopefully not the only one to visit this cache.
