Where Eagles Dare - Back To The Future Eagle Farm, Queensland, Australia
By J 'N' K on 02-Aug-12. Waypoint GC3RQR3

Looks like this has gone missing with the new developments in the area sadly we so will have to archive.

Don't think this one is here any more.
New units built, no sight of the fence anywhere in sight.

Was disappointed that we couldn't complete this cache in the series. We went for a look anyway. this cache does appear to be lost as per previous posts.

Not sure where this one could be. There's some brand new units here, luckily no one's moved in yet so free of muggles. But no sign of any fence, or any other possible hiding place. So we're either missing something simple or it's been lost in all the construction.

Couldn't find a fence here that wasn't on private property. This one hasn't been logged since August and the houses here are all brand new and empty, so we're thinking that maybe the cache was on/near one of those big development fences or something that has been removed? Could the CO please confirm that it's still there?

A little persistence paid off and the thread was found. Tftc

Spent a long time searching around all the suspicious places but couldnt spot anything. Notice it's been a while since the last find, maybe it's gone missing?

Lots of tradies working and construction going on but no-one really cared that much about me. Took ages to find the cache but eventually prevailed. Despite lots of hanging down thingys on the nearby street trees you need to think fence for this one. Finished off by watching one of those big Globemaster military transport planes fly over en-route to Brisbane airport I guess - fantastic.

Last find for the morning and had to outwait a concrete truck sitting at GZ. Knew he was going to have to move first. 5mins later he headed down to one of the construction sites to drop his load. At GZ had a look at a few spots before finding the cache. Log book is full, TFTC J 'N' K

Tftc requires New logbook

Had visited this GZ during business hours on a week day, which with the workers in the building site RIGHT at GZ, was impossible to go hunting...
So, back with the clan on a Saturday afternoon, no one about, so should have time to figure this out.
Okay, even with a muggle free GZ, it took us about 15 minutes to locate this one, what with all the phone bounce... It was Mrs FNG who homed in on this. TFTC and an interesting challenge.

Almost gave up! Log is full. Needs a new one.

Awesome hide!!!
Needs new log

My god. Tried 6 times to find this damn thing. Dont look so hard and youll get it

Sneaky sneaky what a good spot tftc

Been looking for this one since April finally found it ! Tftc had no pen so here's a pic for proof of find

Thank you

Thought I was in for a long search but got it pretty quick TFTC

Found it with my son
Great way to finish the day

Interesting one.
Found the cache but couldn't find the historic sites.
Thanks

Out for a caching play date with barbbowman and bubba89 which had taken us to quite a few different areas around town. After some time caching south of the river, we returned to the bright side and had bit of a play with this little series We found the cache easily and with our names in the log book, we jumped back into the car and headed off to the next cache.

Thank you J 'N' K for having placed the cache for everyone to enjoy

Found. Log to follow.

Stopped to find this one on our way home from lunch nearby. Geohubby spotted it first & wouldn't tell me where it was! I found it a few minutes later after some gentle nudges in the right direction. Sneaky little hide TFTC

Quick find

Out Geohunting while waiting for family to fly in, thought we'd try one more difficult. A bit of searching and we found it! Nice hide!

This was an interesting area to explore - our GPS map did not show roads here, and even the google aerial view shows a waste-land. In is always interesting to see areas where everything is new and still growing.

The cache was easily found, after a quick read of some recent logs and the hint.

Where Eagles or any other bird dares. You won't see it from your seat but you will be looking in the right direction. Tftc

Saturday. Both Slow Punctures ventured south to visit our new nephew. Whilst out we thought we would drop in on a few caches (as one does).

Last one on our way home, we randomly chose this one, and as is our way, made something easy into something difficult. We looked and looked and looked in all of the wrong places. It turns out one of the places Kerry looked was a right place, as Luke found it when having a re-check. The hint is quite useful, use it to eliminate places where it could not be.

This was the 4th of 4 caches we found on this trip.

Thanks [Blue]J 'N' K[/Blue], for showing us this place.

Find #1610 at 17:36. Even with a PAF, that took waaaay too long. I had the right idea, but was concentrating about 5-10m from where I needed to be (and had tried the right spot and missed it anyway.)

Thanks for the cache, J 'N' K. Think I've cleaned up pretty much all of this series now.

Out to see HMAS Toowoomba today and thought we'd try and reach a milestone ... number 399 for the Tiki Clan! TFTC.

Walking around wasting time before work and I decided to head over here. Whilst the auctioneer was rabbiting on behind me I started to look. I was on the right track but cod t find the prize. Becoming time short I was about to give up when I finally spotted the cache.

Log duly signed I had better go to work now

Thanks for the cache

Cheers

We weren't going to do this one but we had done 9 so I thought I would round it off and we WERE already in the area. We drove over to GZ, passed it, parked and walked back. My phone was putting me way off so we followed Tdimdad's phone. Tdimdad had already found this one and couldn't remember so we started the search as if it was a cache we both hadn't found. We searched one place, then another we could have sworn it would have been those places but it looks like we were off as we found in quite quickly in the third place. TFTC!

My meeting was over but a had a couple of hours to kill before work. I spotted that this one was not too far away and sort of on my way to work.

This one would be very difficult at the moment during working hours. Lots going on over the fence, but not on a Sunday afternoon. [^]

A bit of a hunt for this one, but still a reasonably quick find.

Tftc. We were in the area to celebrate a belated mothers day. With no luck at a nearby multi we came here to ensure a smile.
Once on location we liked around a bit before my mum spotted this one, Her first Geocache!

Good hide. Recovered and returned.

A bit behind in my logging - found this one on a night of adventure with Monkey Maker and Lost 2 Found. tftc

We were out on a night of caching fun, looking for the above average D/T's when this one came into view. A small detour through the Cirque traffic and we were soon parked along side GZ. At first we thought maybe the fence was going to stop us from finding the cache but after a few minutes of searching I grabbed hold of the sneeky hide. We all signed in and replaced as found.
Thanx again J N K

Thanks for the hide J 'N' K.
Out with Hot Wheels Duo and Monkey Maker.
Cache in good condition.

Nice hide. TFTC.

Never been to this area before. Road was closed perhaps due to earlier flooding. Only puddles there now. Thanks.

16:34 Easy find.

16:34 Easy find.

TFTCSL out caching with Minky4paw from South Africa! Doing a few around SEQ! Should have trusted gps!!

TFTCSL - Little bit of a rustle to find it, but it was there..

Found this after doing the nearby multi cache. Found quickly, no muggles around as the road is currently closed. Needed this cache to fill in a date in my hidden calendar matrix. TFTC

Nice quick easy find!! TFTC!!

After finding a nearby multicache, I headed to this one. I must have approached from the wrong direction, as my side of the road was closed. I parked as close as I could to the cache and then walked the rest of the way. Once at GZ, I took a seat while I waited for a muggle and her dog to stroll past. Once they had gone, I began my search. It took me about five minutes to find the cache and sign the log. The homes that are to built here will have a great view, but I wouldnt want to be here when the river next floods

We were able to drive right up to within 4 mtrs of of this one tonight. And there it was just hanging about waiting for us

Nice easy find for oldest geo boy. Didn't even get a chance to look.
Middle geo boy liked this one he doesn't like having to find the clues.

Find #1752

Out & about on a busy Sunday & realised we hadn't done a cache for our streak yet.
Knowing there were still several caches in this area that we hadn't found we decided to grab another close to home.

Arrived to find the road closed leaving about 160 metres to walk to GZ. Not a problem, if all the caches we went after only involved a 160 metre walk life would be so much easier. Headed up to GZ & thought 'Hmmm, road closed, construction fencing in place, is it still here?' Recent logs led me to believe it was so on with the search. Spent about five minutes checking out the more obvious places to put a cache but nothing leapt into view so took a seat & had a rethink & reread of the available information.
With a fresh mindset I got off the seat, walked straight to the cache & claimed another smilie!

It was wonderful. Took a City Cat to get from one end to other. Then visited Cafe near port and then took this cache. It took some while before I found it, I even opened city communication servicing point and get scared of spider - I've heard that they might be venomous here
Afterwards I found it get back to City Cat.

Greetings from Latvia!

Not really difficult for eagle eye geoboy after we dismissed some red herrings. Retrieved, signed, replaced. Number two of four smiles today

Can't get the time to many works watching needs to be after hours

found it nice cache TFTC

My geo friend 's daughter came with us and wants to have a go and she found it as it didnt take very long for her to search. TFTC

Thought this one was going to be hard with the difficulty rating but as easy as. Quick grab and off. TFTC

Found it after a short search

I'll have to come back too many work men and they happened to be having a break when I got there and were very curious as to why I stopped

Nice

Tftc

Clever!

Found while having a look at how the other half live. Had to wait for some muggles to pass before grabbing the container and signing my name. TFTC

Found on our weekend in bris. Heading to eat street now. TFTC

Good clue, had fun

I think today wasnt my lucky day! Spent good 30 mins and didn't find it.

Coords from my phone jumps 5 meters after the fence!

Quick find on the geopushy....lovely day to explore the hamilton foreshore. Tftc.

Clever hide. If you are having trouble go back through all the old logs. Clues are there. 4th find today with Peppa.

The scout master found this one.... I was still distracted by us trying to get into the wrong black ute.... took about 30 seconds to work out why the electronic key wasn't doing what it was supposed to... tftc...

Took a bit to find, but after a rethink, we found it

Took four goes to find this one. TFTC.

Tricky hide!! Nice drive around looking for nearby caches before heading to the eat street markets. TFTC

Woke up earlier than usual and decided to take the chance to look for a detour-on-the-way-to-work caches. Parked close by and after a little bit of waiting for the early morning tradies to pass started looking, looking. Quick check of the hint and logs and ... tada.

A great way to start the day! Thanks J'N'K.

Tftc, we hung around for a while and found it

Unsure why there is a picture of an eclipse tin, useless, the pic should be removed, description says bison tube, the cache is a bison tube!


definitely in need of a new log book other than that the tube is in good condition, though the log is water damaged but dry.

Last find for the night with Epoz TFTC JNK

Tftc took a while

Well I can now think of two things that would make this cache hard to fine (I suppose I should say the same for most caches!) and that is rain and darkness !
I have two little caches left close to work, and a long trip home if I try and go now due to the rain and a few traffic jams I heard about on the radio. What a great time to swing by and pick them up.

This one was first. It took a while for me to trust my iPhone, and I wish I had listened to it sooner. I spent a fair amount of time searching along GZ, while the rain tumbled down. I stopped every now an again as the muggles kept driving by.

After a diligent search up and down I managed to come up with the goods! As it was night I didn't get any view tonight, but having done another cache in the area, I know it is a nice area, thanks for bringing me back!

CACHE FIND NO 100. Found it after pondering where the cache could be. Used the clues to help. Nice clever hide.

Tricky find had Freddo "hanging" for a while before he discovered the clever hide After signing the log, just to complete the caching experience he dropped part of the container into the foliage but finally retrieved it after a short game of "dodge the muggles" Tftc J 'N' K

Pulled up to find this one and of course a couple was sitting on the chat infront. Walked around for awhile before they finally left and was able to start hunting. Had to do a bit of searching but found quite quickly

Parked a few metres away and had an idea where to look for the cache, but then the phone kept pointing further away. A quick check on couple of potential spots but then it was time to open the eyes and start checking other options, too. And there it was, behind some cover so as not to be seen by everyone.

TFTC, J 'N' K!

I had a little trouble finding the area as my GPSr does not have updated maps and soon realised that the road I was on must run parrelell to the road I wanted so just drove along a bit and looked for a way to head East. Did not take long. Very new area by the looks of it. parked in a spot virtually along side GZ. Quick find in a vlever hiding spot. you can not see the thread from the footpath due to the plants. TFTC.

We parked and I went one way and hubby the other, he was the one to find this one. Interesting development happening here. SL TFTC

This area is certainly changing with all the development happening around here. Found cache after a short search, signed log & replaced as found. TFTC

Nice one tftc

Thanks for the cache, log and tube are in good condition. An interesting history. Thanks for the information

Cute cache! TFTC

Yay tftc

Another interesting area to discover and thanks to the hints not so tough. Coordinates spot on. Tftc

Just as Ms Maddy and I drive up to this one, that guy parked up right in front of the cache. Looked a bit estate agent type but paid no heed to us whilst I scoured and Ms Maddy kept a watch. Signed the log and moved on - just as the suited man moved off too!! TFTC

The face of the river is changing. Found the lead, but bison jammed. Cross threaded maybe?

I was heading to the north side of the river and was a couple hours ahead of schedule.
How did that happen [?] What to do [?] What to do [?]
Good thing there is a couple of caches around for me to find.
I could not have parked closer to GZ.
Those prickly plants.
Thanks for the cache.

Thanks

Plenty of parking along this stretch so Sooty parked and I hopped out and looked ... looked ... looked!

I sat and thought about it and the recent update of coords, got up and walked right to the cache

It's a tricky beastie to spot

Lots of construction going on here. Guessing it's houses on stilts so they don't get flooded out. Who needs a swimming pool when you live on the Brisbane River, eh?

On we rolled...

TFTC J 'N' K!

Coordinates changed from:
S 27° 26.506 E 153° 05.078

Coordinates changed to:
S 27° 26.507 E 153° 05.080

Distance from original: 12.5 feet or 3.8 meters.
Moved to a more secure location 1.5 Mtrs west of original GZ

Visited tonight to check but found it exposed after recent clearing of the grass beyond the fence. I've moved it about 1.5mtrs west to a more secluded spot. I've upped the difficulty rating as its a bit trickier now. I'll post amended co-ord tomorrow but its available now if you follow the old GZ + 1.5mtrs West.

On a mission to grab as many as I can before the sun goes down!! Found this one quickly! TFTC

Our first Geocaching adventure, Found but had no pen.

A nice park and grab. Can see this area being extremely busy in the future with all the proposed development signs about.
