no longer used

No log, soI left a slip of paper.

Good to see a 'regular'. Pity there were no trackables.
No log, so I left a slip of paper signed.

This cache has been on my radar for a while, but i was always a bit nervous about the entry. Thankfully today i was not alone in my search, and being driven in a car with more clearance! I think if i had tried with my car i would have lost the spoiler on the way in with the washouts.

Soon we were at gz and the cache was in hand. Hmm, where's the log? Oh, how nifty! Thankfully it was quick to acquire. I was a bit lazy and decided to squeeze in "DK" at the end instead of checking for spaces further down the line, but everything looked in great condition.

Thanks for this one TeamPaulsen, another great cache.

And one last one before the day ended. Didn't take my buddy too long! Thanks for the fun!

Back in Stanthorpe for a few days to clean up after Mega, where we spent most of the time on the Apples.

We drove the GeoFalcon up to the rock-covered drain but no further. Legged it to the top side of GZ, but thought it easier from the river side. We came in from the river side, but left via the top side, which was closer to GZ. Typlical.

So that's what happens when you eat too much yoghurt!! Note to cacher "kaedun" from 21st July 2015 - you didn't find it because it was a "night cart"!

Visited TB: "The Navigator"

Found at 7:00pm on 6th December, 2015. TFTC.

It is time to let the navigator continue its journey I picked this spot as it will enjoy the tranquility and nature all around it while having some fish for dinner good luck and may the navigator travel the world

Nice and creative

Having a caching weekend in beautiful Stanthorpe. Not only finding interesting caches but driving past colourful wattle and stone fruit tree blossoms. Thank you to all the wonderful COs for placing these caches.

Visiting the Stanthorpe area to find some more caches. Enjoy visiting this area and the many various types of caches and their locations. A very interesting and well thought out cache. Worthy of a favourite. TFTC.

Great
nice and easy
Good break in the journey

A slower day today preparing for the trails tomorrow, we did some excellent caches today, 30 caches in 3 hours ,all fine finds, many thanx to all cache placers for the efforts put in, top stuff

Spent maybe 1h. DNF
Will come back when it's day. Might have been a bit too tricky in the night.

With an afternoon of chocolate consumption and wine tasting under out belts, Mrs Gunnie and I were heading back into town with Silver Sovereign and Kdawg92, when a couple of icons flashed up on the SatNav... Hhh, DETOUR...

The mighty Forester got us within 10m of GZ, so it was a short walk to the container, which was quickly located. Out with the contents, I pulled out the decoy log and added our names. Then we did the right thing and added our tags to the real one as well... Well, we had to Fish, right...

Nice size container... Cheers TeamPaulsen.

A nice and quick find while out and about with Gunnie69 & kdawg92. As Gunnie was writing our names in the decoy log however, it was I who realised the meaning of the title and fetched us the real one to rewrite our names into!

TFTC!

Heading back from some chocolate and wine tasting, this cache showed up on Gunnie69's GPS and decided to go and find this cache, trekking through with a mighty subbie we got within meters of GZ and once there found the container quickly and signed the fake log and only noticed once Silver Sovereign pointed that out and went fishing for the real log. Great container BTW. Tftc!

[Teal][font=Verdana]20284 caches found

Excellent one - admired your idea--- Fav from me.
Thanks for hide the caches - signed the log.

Again thanks TeamPaulsen[font=Verdana]^][/Teal]

Great idea

I had this cache recommended to me so I thought I would try it out.
Headed in with geopartner and I was a bit of a goose and had put one number wrong in the coordinates and when we got to GZ I could not find anything resembling a cache.
Rang for a PAF and told what to look for.
Geopartner looked it up and I was about 400 feet away.
Off we went and soon I saw the local fishing spot and a lot of rubbish in here.
Could do with a CITO in this one spot. I think we could fill a skip.
Finally found the cache and geopartner went first and then I had a go.
Signed the log and returned to GZ.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks TeamPaulsen All good with this cache
A favourite from me

Great spot for fishing. But glad we found the cache. Tftc

Found with team Bbayjohn whilst at Stanthorpe Mega, this one was rather memorable tftc

Great cache, had some fun with this. TFTC

cache find #3075. On our way back to town, after a morning of finding caches. MrsGT54 found this one. Oh this does bring back memories. TFTC.

Had a great time at mega, camped onsite....staying on an extra day for more caches...caching with robbieracer66 and Team GrubFred....tftc TeamPaulsen

Found after mega...out caching with earthly65 and grubfred....tftc

I am having a tour of the area today and knocking over a few caches with seirra1 and AussieScouter. We are staying at the Mega, which has been an awesome experience.
Today we visited a winery, hotel (for lunch) and Jamworks (we bought some yummy jam) and completed the Elementary series, some of the bike trail and many other local caches.
Found after a short walk. I really like the thought that went into this cache. It's something a little different and I'm awarding it with a favourite point. Thanks for the cache TeamPaulsen.

Out for the last day in Stanthorpe with Mistraluna and the Better Half.

Found the cache without problems after working out what to do.

Thanks TeamPaulsen for the cache.

Out and about while at the Stanthorpe Mega with us3scouts and AussieScouter. A favorite for the thought in the construction.Thanks for the cache TeamPaulsen

Visiting from Newcastle, staying onsite at the Mega, travelling around with earthly65 and robbieracer66, TFTC TeamPaulsen!!

Found on the 4th and last day of our Qld Mega Odyssey in Stanthorpe. Kestral joined us for a Quality not Quantity tour to Tenterfield and back. A great day was had but all good things have to come to an end, and after adding 17 finds we sadly had to make a dash to the airport to catch the last flight to Adelaide.

Mr M stayed in the car to prepare for the next cache, but got impatient. What was taking so long. Apparently everyone else was having far too much fun with this cache. TFTC Paulsens. Favourite point from us.

Bit of a sad day today, being the last day of the Queensland 2015 Mega Event. Many cachers are already packing up and heading home. Not us though - we have another day to fill in, hoping to find as many of the unfound caches around the Stanthorpe area as we can. Couldn't leave this one behind, and glad we made the short detour to find it - great cache. Thanks for the smiley TeamPaulsen

Nice one # 350

Found with seirra1 & us3scouts. TFTC

Today was the fourth day of our camping adventure in Stanthorpe but my last day caching with Aussie M'n'M. We had a great day travelling to Tenterfield.

Nice quick find on a creative cache. TFTC Team Paulsen

When I found the cache with some help from M&M I was wondering why it had some favourite points. When we open the cache we couldn't quiet work it out then we realised we had to go fishing. Great hide and TFTC TeamPaulsen

Found with taurus1955 and B/dale Bandits. Nice camo. TFTC

Day 3 of our Easter weekend at the Qld Mega, Stanthorpe in wet, wet weather. A good hide but easily found and log quickly signed. Out and about with misschief18, B/dale Bandits and Bentley TB

A great days caching and road trip at the Oz Mega 2015 with Taurus1955 and Misschief18. Lots of experiences and adventures we had lots of laughs along our travels some where I walked right to the cache and others where I needed to hunt around a bit. I have enjoyed the various challenges set by the CO's and the fact that I get to cache with friends and am outside in the great outdoors.
Thanks heaps TeamPaulsen for placing this cache .

very interest to catch it ha TFTC

Found on Easter Sunday at mega with Frog_lady!! Tftc:) had fun fishing!!

TFTC

Happy Easter!
Out caching with Screma and KB in Stanthorpe while at the Mega Event.
The weather is miserable but our spirits are high!

Quick find with extra eyes

TFTC

Found it TFTC

This would have to be the biggest cache around this area, quick find and signed in the green little case as no other log book was there. TFTC

Found while we were out caching today while at the mega event for the weekend. This is a great area to explore. TFTC.

Headed out here to do a cache we heard was a bit different. Glad we did. Great to see a HUGE cache container compared to most others around here and a novel idea to access it. Seems some have written on the DO NOT WRITE ON THE DECOY BOOK instead of bothering to open the real cache. Gets a fave. Used this location to 'clean up' for the CITO event. 3 bags were full in no time. Had a nice walk around here. TFTC

TFTC found this morning while gathering Rubbish for the CITO very good gets a fav from me

In Qld from SA for the Mega event and having a great time, apologies for the generic logs, but very much appreciate the efforts of the CO. TFTC

After missing the turnoff a couple of times, we finally managed to stop here today and wondered down for the quick find, then off through the bush to seek out the source of the sound of falling water. Very pretty.

TFTC

Tftc. There was no log book in it.

Out Caching with Jaminappleford and KB for Easter for the QLD Mega
TFTC

Found it , the familiar call was made

Last full day of the mega event and time for another pre-lunch caching run. With the weather in general a bit less wet today than it has been it was a bit easier as well. A bit of a generic log on the 28 I found this morning I'm afraid, but I know the Cache Owners will be getting buried in emails and unlikely to have a chance to read them all. Thanks TeamPaulsen for the cache.

I must be used to having a 4WD as I made it a drive by in the work Commodore.

Enjoying some MEGA caching. Thanks for the hide.

A fun cache!
Touring around Stanthorpe and area with DOC-WHO, doing the Mega event caches.
Found quickly after a short search. TNLNSL TFTC

After a rather eventful (read expensive, long and tiresome) trip down to the Mega, and spending yesterday and the morning trying to diagnose issues with the car, we decided we had better go find some caches.

Easy find, at 1315hrs.

Cheers

Bundy

Found as part of a very big caching day in conjunction with YorkshireKiwi83, VISTRA, Vamber, Alpenmilch80 signing the logs as CAVVY (to save space).
Shame about the weather but the caching was a whole lot of fun with adventures and trash talk along the way.
Thank you to all the cache owners that put these together for us to enjoy while at the OZ MEGA 2015, as NZer's we certainly did appreciate them.

So again thank you for the FUN of the hunt

Something different as lots of cache around stanthorpe are mostly same and fun doing this fishing in cache. TFTC

Visiting QLD from Central Coast NSW, and attending the Stanthorpe MEGA EVENT for about a week. Camping at the showground, caching days done mainly with SpikeyMikey, meeting up with members of CCG, HAVOC, and others from all over Australia.
Many thanks to all responsible for a smooth operating event, my first Mega, and first visit to Stanthorpe. Plenty of reasons for a near future visit
Whilest it did rain and drizzle almost every day, I much preferred this over hot days, which is what I encounted on the Gold Coast return journey, as well as a repeated bout of coughing with the flu on the long drive home.

Great Puzzles, Power Trails, landscapes, History, Apples!, and company. Politeness and respect by all

Many Personal records smashed this weekend First MEGA, Finds per day, Altitude, etc

Some more geocaching around the town. Signed those logs as ACDC (Alpenmilch80s, Cats&Dragons Geocaching). TFTC

Cool idea for a cache, T4TC

My Garmin is being rather temperamental so not reading the description and therefore missed the turn. Parked beside the road not too dangerously and proceeded on foot to GZ. As I approached I could hear water happily tumbling down a creek and thought I might have to go fishing which I am absolutely no food at. Found the caxhe easily and just loved it. I am giving it a fav point it's just so appropriate TFTC Team Paulsen

Really enjoyed this cache! What a great idea. Thanks for the inspiring idea that makes caching worth the search.

Went fishing got the first catch of the day.favorite point

Found while in Stanthorpe for the mega. I grew up in this area and it was great to come back to this area. TFTC.

Soon had this good one found. TFTC

On a geocaching trip with tmann421 with the focus being the MEGA at Stanthorpe. A fantastic trip away seeing a part of the country I had not seen before and collecting caches along the way. Stamped the logs with t&J or our names.

Thanks to all the CO's for the caches and making this such a memorable trip.

Had a great day great caching with Alansee, Maccamob, Phetlern, Zobo04, Lazzal and The Coffees. Found lots of caches some easy to find some not so. We signed the log as GLAMPCZ.

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Her Majesty at 2:55pm. The cache was found quickly. TFTC

Found while attending the Mega. A weekend of mixed fortunes caching and weather wise.
We only arrived today but thought we would collect a few once we had set up.

We missed the turn initially but after a bit of back tracking we found our way in. Loved the hide - very cute.

TFTC TeamPaulsen

Tftf.....

Very cool! Gracias TeamPaulsen

Cool cache. Gets a fave. Thanks for the hide.

We joined up with Pprass, Temingi and Squalid and spent the day exploring Stanthorpe and its surrounding area. So many wonderful caches have been placed showing us spots we wouldn't normally have travelled to. A great day spent geocaching with our friends from this side of the country. Thanks to all who provided these caches for us to find.

Found at 12:26 PM GAFF1 in the company of Squalid, Team Pathfinder and Temingi,.
We tried the brute force method and then Squalid took over and started to study the situation and came up with the answer. However we used a Leatherman to get it out [^]
Nice work on the hide.
Thanks TeamPaulsen.

Found by Mary & David, in company with Gonefishen07, Lazzal, Alansee, and Phetlern, The Coffees and Zobo04 (now signing as GLAMPCZ), at 0942. Our fourth day out and about around Stanthorpe, and we enjoyed more of the scenery, some wonderful caches and the company. We also made a start on the new Lab caches. Having fun with our group. The radio chatter within our little convoy was so funny we should have recorded it. Didn't use the suggested approach to retrieve the log, but we still managed to do it quickly. Our thanks to TeamPaulsen.

No time for fishing !!
Thar's caches to find

GZ was easily reached on foot after parking the pushbike next to a tree on the side of the highway

Out for a day of caching with Gonefishen, Phetlern, Alansee, Zobo04, Macamob and the Coffees. I had been over some of this ground before but went along for the ride and found quite a few that I had bypassed before, and some new ones as well. We signed the log as glampcz in most instances.
Thanks to TeamPaulsen for this cache

This one was a pain working out where to stop...after a bit of back and forth we finally got it! A quick dash in...didn't realise what we were meant to do at first so the log was retrieved without fishing oh, that's what you do doh!

Ah well log signed and off we went

We spent more time looking for how to get here (and where to legally turn around) then we did looking for the cache.
Clever idea, and a well hidden cache.

Thank you for Stanthorpe Oz Mega....

Tftc

TFTC! Have a FP!

Out and about caching with Tassie Trekkers while in Stanthorpe for the Mega. A well constructed cache container, deserves a favourite. TFTC

Day 2 of our return to Stanthorpe saga. A very clever cache that had us fooled for a short time then we landed the fish.

Out exploring Stanthorpe for the QLD Mega Event

Today we explored Stanthorpe with Whitewebbs using geocaching as a guide while here for the Mega.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

QLD Mega trip 2015 with Sol de Lune. On this almost 400km road trip we drove from Canberra to Stanthorpe caching in all the towns along the way with mostly great success. Around the Mega there were heaps of caches to be done including a few power trails. Despite the weather we got all of the planned caches done.

Day six was fairly gloomy and wet, but we started by heading up to the Bald Rock area, even though it turned out to be too wet to attempt the climb. Then it was back to the main road and trail caching for the rest of the way to Stanthorpe. Thanks.
