Thorough search of ALL bolts. Nothing loose nor out of place. I will watch the activity but am pretty sure its been muggled, as evidenced by recent activity over last few months.
 
29-Jul-16
Unfortunately we didn't check the logs before looking so tried our best but nothing to show for it. Sad that's 3 DNF's now ) probably worth a look!

A nice find while on the way to Cairns. A muggle was eating his lunch right at the table, but luckily he moved in time for us to find the cache. Nice easy find. Great hide!

These containers really make the logbook extraction extremely difficult. This probably needs fixing. Luckily I had my pin with me to lever out the log.

Thanks for taking us here and greetings from Canberra!

Great cache, out and about with Anderson/Greville just before we caught our plane home.

Once we had packed our bags and started driving we had a look for Cassowary's along the roads of Mission Beach, sadly we couldn't find one. After a couple of walks and lunch we decided to continue our journey North.

When we finally got to Innisfail we had a coffee stop and saw this geocache on the map. We 'bolted' for the table and couldn't find it straight away, after looking on the table, under the roof and everywhere else I noticed that something was out of place, after that we soon had the cache in hand.

When we got the cache, we couldn't get the logbook out of the cache, luckily one of the people we were traveling with always carrys a multi tool. After a mix of poking and prodding we finally got the log out. We signed our names and high-fived each other then got back in the car to go to Cairns to catch our plane.

Thanks for this outstanding cache, gets a favourite point, Hoka13579

One of our favorite caches so far! What a fantastic container and a great location. This one was a real treat! TFTC

Klettercache and me are making a 5 week holiday in Australia and our route leads us from Sydney via Brisbane to Cairns. From Cairns, we are going to take a flight to Adelaide and from this city in Southern Australia we will continue our trip by train through the Nullarbor Plain towards Perth, where we will fly back to Germany.

During this third week of our stay, we drove our rental car from towards Cairns and will stay near this village for 5 days. We haved to drive really a lot of kilometers the last days and are glad now to have an opportunity to relax for a while. Anyway, we are looking forward to find caches around Cairns and to make some trips in the surrounding region.

Today we drove the last kilometers from Mission Beach towards Sydney and we made some stops to find some caches.

It needed a while to find the cache. The idea was quite clear but we did not touch the possible containers but only had a look at them. When starting to touch, we could find it easily. Difficult to extract the logbook.

Thanks to the owner for keeping and maintaining the cache.

Have completely updated this cache, with new container and hiding spot. We hope that there will no longer be an issue with muggles and water. Please be sure to place this new cache exactly where is was found. If unsure of the right hiding spot, check out the clue.

Happy caching,

a nice cache we found it on our trip to the south with soniasafari after a lot of time of searching. we would like to searched at IN the place of the canecutter monument but this place was secured and closed for renovation. The Cancutter is a nice place and a start for our next days between a lot of canetrains and canefields. TFTC

Stopped to grab this cache while passing through Innisfail. I found the coordinates to be out by about 7 metres today. The prize was soon located after I searched a little further from the GZ. The original log is soaked, but someone has recently placed a makeshift log in the form of a shopper docket in the cache. TFTC TNLN SL {#337}.

Good spot

Another find in August. Saw the Drovers had been through here.

Log very wet.
Thanks for the cache, Ballbag&Bumblebee.

No luck here...
Our GPS took us somewere in the green. So we searched a little bit farer. Muggles where around, so we give up after some time.
