I think I found it. However couldnt confirm my suspicion because it was heavily guarded Picture sent to CO.

Out on my regular Sunday afternoon trek with the dog whilst son number one has his catch up with mates. Back over to the north side of the gateway and i commenced ticking off some solved ship caches. I had to go to the nearby boat ramp to jot down some numbers, and then parked here to find this golden oldie.No sooner had i opened the rear of the car, and a rabbit darted past, and the dog nearly ripped my arm off. Was the first of half a dozen that we spied on our walks around this afternoon. Anyway the cache was quickly located. Great camo here, and a convenient table nearby to sign the log. All returned as found and all good with the log sheet. Thanks very much Ksix for the cache placement here, Cheers.

After finding a lot of Little Sailing Boat caches, it was time for an Oldie. In a park that mightn't see a lot of visitors, unless it's for lunch in between deliveries, this cache was an easy find in a logical place.Thanks, Ksix, for placing a cache here. What a great tree!!

Since todays plan fizzled I headed out in the geo-car for a few caches by myself today.I found your cache, K6-12 Olive Oil today. This is my 3303 find.Quick find before the page loadedKsix, TFTC, TFTH & TFTSF
 
30-Aug-24
Working on a ships PA system brings me this part of the world, and a brief opportunity to grab this cache. Unfortunately, a massive ship is not a suitable resource for taking on other nearby water- based caches and so this cache was all I could score.
 
25-Aug-24
Over visiting from NZ and using the time to do as much caching as other commitments allow. Today I had teamed up with GEM_54 to try and knock off as many of the sailboat series as possible, plus any others that we were passing.I'm certainly glad we chose a Sunday to do these ones, as the area was almost deserted and so parking near GZ's was never a problem, but I can imagine how busy it would be on a week day, with lots of workers and heavy traffic.On a roll now. A nice quick find here and still no dnf's yet. Let's hope this continues. TFTC

Out and about for our second day of caching on the northside and today's area was over near the airport. Quite a variety to keep us busy and we were able to keep out of the showers most of the time later in the day. Thanks to all the COs.

Quick one near my work depot.

We had always wanted to know where the big boats come in to roost for Brisbane and we had just seen one in action. When I say action, I mean it was just floating there as something was being loaded on or off it at snails pace.Looking at the size of the ship I had to wonder how much diesel it requires just to get started and how much it can store. Im a big fan of the Deadliest Catch show and those boats are always braking down, so how often does something as big as 5 football fields have mechanical issues.There was no one around on a Sunday so this was the best time to search. Mrs Woodyrothwell was driving so I ducked out and made it 270 degrees around the tree before spying something suspicious. tftc

Found while I was out collecting some of the nearby geoart caches. There are multiple full logs in the cache so I would suggest a clean out TFTC.

A surprising area to find such an interesting little piece of almost hidden history. I can’t imagine a monarch coming out for a ceremony here these days. Cache was found quickly and that’s excellent camo. Thanks Ksix

This morning, I needed to take my vehicle to undertake some repairs in Pinkenba. Despite the COVID-19 lockdown, they assured me that the business was still open and essential, and the repair would be conducted whilst I waited. With contactless facilities, I decided to throw in my bike, and hence go for a bike ride to nearby Pinkenba historical village to fill in the time, and complete my daily allowed fitness.

I decided to take my bike ride to this location, before turning around and returning back to the car repair place. Upon arriving, I soon made a circle, and found a rock that had obviously been the cache hiding spot, but alas, no cache container was hidden there? Hence, I ended up having to make a tree climb, where I soon spotted the small cache container. The cache container and logbook were in good shape, and I decided to stamp the logbook, although doubtful that it will last given the waterproof paper (so I've attached a photo of the logbook also). I decided to move the cache back to the original hiding spot, which was the perfect size for the outer camouflage, and subsequently, the cache's terrain rating is also now more reflective of that spot. For the history and my association with the Moonie oil pipeline (given my profession), with the cool park and monument, this cache gets a Favourite Point from me! Thanks Ksix for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

With some time to spare this afternoon while waiting to pick hubby up from the airport, I decided to tackle some unfound caches in the local area. It was great to spend some time in this area, much of which I had not seen in a long time, or ever.

After finding a nearby cache I couldn't end my day without taking a look for this one. Despite the rain I pulled up near the GZ and wandered over to the most likely area. Not too long afterwards I had the cache out from its hiding spot, glad that I had come here when I did to not have the same results as previous finders. All was good with the cache, log signed and replaced as found. It was great looking at all the planes on the way in and out of this cache.

Very early to pick up our friends from the airport.. well that’s not entirely true, we deliberately left early to find a cache to complete our 365 day challenge
A great hide, this one smells very,.. gasy! Left to try the trail nearby. Thank you for the awesome cache type

Brilliant location Smile learned some history as well

This is yet another place I would never have found if not for geocaching. The monument is really lovely. The cache container seems to have been become a home for a spider and its babies. However the log sheet is still able to be signed. TFTC

Second find of the day. Geokid and I ventured out here today looking for one older cache and a few others in the local area. She was a little intimidated by the size and speed of the larger trucks zooming past.

GZ is a lovely respite area and well worthy of a cache. Nice quick find here, but beware of the ants!

TB visit x5. TFTC Smile
 
01-Jan-20
A nice quick find on our day out and about!

Frannymfrog and I are out and about searching for our first caches of 2020!
This was a nice quick find but there were lots and LOTS of ants.

The cache was quickly signed and returned to its spot!
TFTC! Found with Frannymfrog logged as 3K!

What a great way to spend New Year’s Day .. caching smilies!
Out and about with potatochips101 adding some smilies to our inventory. Have not ventured out this way for a long time and thought a public holiday would be the best time to visit. I had no idea of the history of this area - thanks for bringing us here.
A quick find ... though we did have to wait a moment or two for the ants to disperse. Log signed and returned. Found with potatochips101 Logged as 3K.

I recently got an email from a colleague in Brizzy who asked if I could come up to Brisbane so he could show me a work process and review some documents. Súper I thought - trip will = geocaching opportunity. Then he writes back and says he thinks it will require a 2 day trip. I know it doesn’t but the meeting request comes for 2 days who am I to refuse? So flights/hotel and car booked.
So what to pack? Only a cacher would take hiking boots, gum boots, rain coat, insect repellent and a torch on their trip!! Not much room for the work clothes. Did think about the ladder for some tree challenge caches caches I wanted to get but that would have been just a little bit weird.
So after we had lunch on the first day my colleague and I reviewed the documents and by 2.30 we were done until we could catch up with his boss tomorrow. Just as I suspected there was no way this work could take 2 days so I happily absconded to find the challenge caches I had on my list (well some of them at least!). I was in Pinkenba on Tingara St so had to collect this one first. Quick find in the only place it could be! TFTC

A quick find as the sun disappeared on the other side of a distant berm. A rhino beetle was in the spot next to the cache— he wasn’t alive but that was a cool find. I appreciate the work put into the metacontainer for this one. Cheers!

Today we came out to have a look at the historic area of Pinkenba. We managed to find a couple of geocaches along the way, and also really enjoyed exploring an area of Brisbane we have never visited. At GZ, we admired the historical memorial to the people who had built this gas pipeline. It was then on to find the geocache, which we soon had in our hands. A beautifully crafted container in a lovely location.
Thanks Ksix
