JAGERA Tarampa, Queensland, Australia
By guddink on 14-Feb-08. Waypoint GC19BVZ

Found as The Houldsworth Clan

I am archiving this cache due to Muggles and flood damage in this park.

The cache site was above the flood level, but had been muggled again.
I am disabling this cache until I have time to find a new location for it.

Lovely area although it looks a bit uncared for! Some willy wagtails were very unimpressed with us entering - must have a nest nearby. Thanks guddink

It is a shame that this park isnt visited more.. or taken care of a bit better. But nevertheless, it was a great walk in. I get the feeling the area is a bit forgotten. We made our way to GZ and located the cache after a small hunt. Clap clap for clever lad that can use a cigarette lighter. At least they didnt torch the whole cache I spose. A lovely area.. Took the travel slug. Thanks for bringing me here, guddink.. and TFTC

Dropped off a bug.

The cache needs maintenance. The path is getting quite overgrown but the find is very easy.

very nice walk

Another of my childhood memories. I hope this one stays dry in the wet as I remember that as a child that this road always flooded in the wet SL TNLN TFTC

Have been visiting friends nearby but they had other commitments this morning so I went for a walk around the nearby caches. This was the second after walking down from TX-RX2. Found cache OK and signed log.

Thanks for the cache.

quick find tftc!!

found with anddad after a short walk

Found at 1140Hrs with bluegonz. Nice stroll to this one. Someone, probably from a landcare group, has shoved some sapling protection items into the cache's home, so I dont know how long this one will last.
TNLN. Thanks guddink.

Nice little walk on this one....no birds to be seen.

Cache was right where I suspected it to be!

Nice spot, TFTC!

TNLN,SL

Nice chance to get out of the Geo mobile and go for a short walk, good hide, looks like the log was a little lucky to have survived as it is a little singed around the edges.

A lovely area. I helped plant the trees in the area with Tarampa SS. Good to the conservation efforts are helping preserve the area. Can't remember exactly what date we were up here, but cache seemed ok

2nd find on a damp afternoon while taking my niece for some driving practice. Niece decided to sit this one out as the rain had started again and involved a walk through a big puddle. Good choice, as the track was rather slimy and muddy further on. Cache nice and safe and dry. TFTC TNLN

Snakes are becoming active in the area. Take care.

After a little bit of driving around in circles, finally found a suitable entry point, and had a nice short walk to the cache.
It is a pity, but we are stuck with idiots in this world who were brought up on the philosophy of Burn, Bash, and Bury! (Bury everything except your own rubbish of course - leave that wherever happens to be convenient), but I am beginning to sound like a G.O.M.
TNLN except footprints. TFTC.

Cache appears to have fallen foul of those that have nothing to do but vandalise things.

Container found thrown in a log with other rubbish.
Pen and yellow car found on the ground near the picnic table. Logbook has been burnt. (It would appear that a damp logbook finally found a use as way of stopping dumb munters burning them).
Cache container has been stabbed and puctured (most likely by the black pen).
Container filled with rubbish.
Geocaching label half ripped off.

Have returned pen and car to cache container and replaced in what I assume was the intended hiding spot. Removed all rubbish from GZ.

The fifth and final Guddink cache for the day. Nice, easy find after a pleasant walk through the bushland reserve, where we got to see a black snake en route.

TNLN. Signed the burnt logbook. See Maintenence Request for further details. TFTC.

Found it No. 1680 ... took the wrong track but got there in the end ... TNLN

someone has burnt part of the log book ,but was still able to use it .Lots faster from Jensen's Swap Rd.Found at 4.45 pm

Entered into the book of LEDGIN'S. A bit of a detour on my way home after a visit to Toowoomba. Attacked this cache from the high road. Wandered to cache via picnic tale and completed the loop back to the Prado. I wonder how many of the breeding boxes get used? TNLN. Thanks again guddink

Found at 1630. Walked in from Jensens Swamp Road as this is where my GPSr took me. Only 200meters in along a good graded track to GZ. Good quick easy find. TNLNSL TFTC

Made a bit of a detour on a trip to Brisbane to find this one. Geo Mummy solved the puzzle in the cache as I filled out the log.

Discovering Australia one cache at a time…

ByrobBabe was here at 1310hrs. This one was tricky in finding the access to the location. Encountered some interesting patches of mud along the track, but luckily no snakes. Easy find once at GZ. T - Water pistol, Belt clip. L - Ball, Dinosaur. Unfortunately there was already one of each in the cache but I was not trecking back through the mud three more times to change my offerings to Jagera. TFTH.

Found at 2.00pm. A nice easy walk to the cache. At gz I was greeted by the tail end of a brown snake that was just slithering away as I approached. Grabbed the cache cautiously, signed the log, took the tb and left yellow car. Thanks for bringing me here.

Checked condition of Jagera and dropped of Travel Bug "Gold Hunter"

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga at 2:20pm in the heavy rain today. Not much sunshine round here. Quite a walk to this cache in the rain but an easy find once finding a parking spot. TFTC

Pig found this one too and thought it best to grab the TB for me...the witch loves Geckos!

Found today by the Downey Clan out and about around the outskirts of Toowoomba.

Took the spoon for a ride, and left a TB.

The Downey Clan

A lovely stroll along the path! Great piece of bushland through here. Miss Steve took the honours when we arrived at GZ and found the cache quickly. We took a rock and left a packet of beads. Thanks for the cache.

great little spot

A nice stoll in the park with Dad and mates. Let the youngest find this one, (particularlly funny to watch). found quickly with little issue.
Took champange bubbles, left Thong Key ring.
SL, TFTC!

Mr Mastamak waited in the car as youngest geokid was sleeping. Easy find by the rest of the clan.

Nice easy find on our way home to Brissy.

Thanks for leaving the note at the original GZ, as my printout of the cache was a couple of days old and it didn't have the changed co-ordinates on it. Would have been a DNF for us if you hadn't left the note.

Once we had the updated co-ords for the GZ the cache was easily located.

Thanks for the hunt Guddink
Cheers,

Cache relocated due to Geotrails exposing site. Message left at old site giving new coordinates.

Found while on the way back to Brisbane. OK… I took a bit of a caching detour to grab this one and a few others! Took a die, left a carabiner. TFTH

A rare event (for me)...geocaching with the family.
Mrs Wingaap driving we made a beeline for the cache. Interesting area...I loved the painting on the watertank.
It was an easy find as the cache was without cover.

We hid it as I would expect someone to hide one of my own caches.

Thanks guddink...for the cache and the introduction to this area

Staying out this way at my Brother's place for a couple of days over the long weekend and decided to pick up some caches in the area.

This was the 5th of six finds for the day with Ant24 and my brother, also his first ever caching experience.

What a great area, wish we had sometime to explore the area a bit more. Cache was quickly located, only just covered by a piece of shade cloth a couple of sticks. Recovered with shade cloth and more sticks when leaving. Cache in hand at 11:10am.

Quick walk and find with no-one around. TFTC

Interestig place for a stroll. Found the cache O.K. TNLN TFTC

Interesting bit of park - nice to see these areas being set aside and made availalbe for the public.
TFTC

A nice walk past the swamp to the cache, which was well hidden....thanks.

mm

Another little spot I did not know about... Been in the general vicinity before. Nice little park with very obvious work by the local land caring groups!!!

Found with a new cacher "Wonderful She Is"...

TFTC TNLNSL

I had a quiet sojourn through this bit of bushland this morning
It's great to see all these little bits of conservation thanks to geocaching. They would go unnoticed by me otherwise
The new camo on the cache works well. A simple, but effective method [^]
TFTC

Improved cover over cache and added a Yowah opal specimen today.
To help avoid a Geotrail to the cache, go 10 paces past the indicated site, turn right for five paces and then look for the cache.
Guddink

A walk in the scrub is always good and this was no different. Fellow cachers will have to be careful that a geotrail doesn't form here. I followed a faint trail straight to the cache. With the wetter weather though it may cover up quickly.

Great spot for a cache. Took nothing, left mini book.

Found with Water Rat, this park made a pleasant surprise in the middle of nowhere, the cache was exposed when we found it so we dug up some more sticks to hide it. Thanks for the cache Guddink.

This cache is my FTF. Found with Tratty and geo-hound. Nice place for a wander - and a cache.
Thanks guddink. Took bag clip - left champagne bubbles.

Cheers

Found this one after finding two other caches and thought it was going to be my second FTF for the day but alas it was not to be, someone beat me. Nice spot that appears to be getting time and money spent on it.

Thanks for the hunt Guddink.
