Pasing through with geo van in tow we stopped at van friendly caches and this was we found.Cache and contents in good condition.Many thanks for your cache placement here.
Found it years ago In 2018 but came back up with bennyboy3677 and he trumps so great hide bit confused at first but then we spotted the obvious
Great spot. Bring a Phillips head screwdriver with you. Thanks for the cache.
I was out today caching with Muggle65 and GreenGecko1. I had only had two caches on the list today. After the event we headed to this cache. WallabyWanderers thank you for placing and maintaining this cache for enjoyment of the caching community.
After an event in Cherbourg this morning, we joined forces with GreenGecko1, Muggle65 and Brislions to wander our way back home, picking up target caches along the way. Some we sought because of their type, some because of their D/T, some their size and some because they sounded interesting. BM75 was already at GZ with the cache in hand when we pulled up to start our hunt. Luckily we had managed to find an appropriate TOTT in our cars toolkit so headed over to perform the log retrieval. After signing and replacing, we had a quick chat before continuing on. Thanks GeckoSpit
Out today finding some Large sizes along with a couple of great D/T caches to fill in some gaps in my stats. Cache in good condition.
Luckily reinforcements arrived with the appropriate TOTT. Thanks for the cache GeckoSpit
Was happy to see that Beardman had found the cache and we had the appropriate tool from the toolkit of DisSister and DragonSky's brand new vehicle. All of our names were soon in the logbook. Thank you for the fun
Tftc GeckoSpit, we are on our way to Longreach for an event. Stopping along the way to collect some smilies.
Did a short walk along the rail trail to make the find here.
Having read the hint we had the required TOTT ready to use.
All in good condition.

Had our tott ready and it wasn’t long before the cache was in hand, lovely planting of flowers here at the moment tftc
Day 2 Out doing a circuit ride from Kilkivan to Ipswich and then back to home over a couple of days.
We were told the KKRT was closed, well we got through from Kilkivan to Goomeri yesterday so how will we go today. Wow the street nearby is certainly washed out. As for the trail well we made it to Kingaroy. We think the closed signs might be for eBikes.
The cast iron distance markers were originally introduced as Mile Posts and later repositioned at kilometre intervals as part of QR's metrication program in the early 1970's.
Kilometer Post locations are based on the distance commencing from a appropriate terminal station. Examples of the commencement point for distance are Roma Street for the Main and Western Line, Roma Street via Exhibition for the North Coast Line, and Rockhampton for the Central Line. For branch lines the commencement point of measurement was the junction station. Kilometre Posts are located on the left hand side of the track leading out from the commencement point of measurement for that particular line.

Looking back over our trip from WA to the CacheQld Mega, Townsville, we have a few spare moments to put a smiley on some more of the caches we have signed along our journey.
It’s amazing to see the country through the eyes of a geocacher
Especially seeing the beaut local spots
Thanks to all the COs for sharing these great stops along the way, making our joy all the more interesting.

Day 8 of 10 – Kingaroy to Wondai via the KKRT - Cache 9. Riding our bikes from Walkuraka to Kilkivan. The name reveals all with this well camoflagued cache. Great find. Thankfully we are nearly in Wondai - the end of today's ride. TFTC.
Found this cache while out caching with KerryL and LloydAu. Very clever hide and needed to return with the special tool to be able to access the log. TFTCGeckoSpit
Out caching with Smittengranny and Lloydyau. Needed to come back with a trusty tool to open this one. Tftc.
Spending some time in the district chasing a few caches and had a good walk around Wondai seeing the sites. Thanks for the cache.
After lunch in Wondai and some tree fishing, we wandered over here for a look at this interesting bridge along the rail trail. We started inspecting the bridge more closely, until J spotted the likely hide a bit further afield. Found a little trail to it and took the cache back to the car where we had our TOTTs having not read the description properly in the first place.
Got it open easily with the right equipment & signed the log, then got it back to it's post.

#13 of 32 smilies added to our map today.
A nice quick find of this sneaky cache.
Trust the coordinates.
I think the Bromance are a little ahead of themselves, their stamp was dated June 16.
Slow down & smell the roses fellas.
Liberated the TB.
Made our mark & replaced as found.

It's been far too many months since The Bromance last went on a weekend geocaching road trip so plans were made a couple of weeks ago for a journey north towards Kingaroy and the surrounding area. Unfortunately Crookedpete was unable to make it due to family commitments so it was a Bromance Lite+ trip of JezNDez, Swellerfungus and Seffnjarah.
Today was Day 2 of the trip, and after an overnight stay in a dingy motel in Kingaroy and a few caches picked up around town , we continued our journey northwards. Dez has been piloting Victor Del Prado and has been quite adventurous in getting us a close to GZ's as possible. Came up a little short at this one, leaving a little distance still to be covered on foot. Swellerfungus was adamant he knew where the cache was and hobbled in his moonboot off into the distance. Dez on the other hand zeroed in quickly on the real GZ, while I dashed back to the car for the required TOTT. Signed the logbook with The Bromance team stamp (although there may be a slight glitch with the stamp date). TFTC

Well I went to the totally wrong sign! There was no way I would have made it.to the real one in my current medical condition. Fortunately the others in the Bromance found it.
We are now camped at Wondai, after setting up camp we drove around the farming country side looking for caches.
Thankyou GeckoSpit for placing this cache.

Rode past this a few times.es over last two years. I can rember when the creek always had a flow enough for small waterfall and always clear. Nice hide. New plastic zip lock. Log book is shot.sadly.
Interesting cache container and additional level of security. Make sure the power is off before opening.
Stopped in before the local parkrun.
Thanks For The Cache.

Another day caching from Goomeri while up from the Sunny Coast. Obviously we haven't been to spec-savers recently because it took us quite a while to spot the sign but once we did, the cache was soon found. Took it back to our vehicle to get the right TOTT before signing the log and returning safely to its location. TFTC GeckoSpit
Found and assisted Eliza Harvey in getting this one as she had no screwdriver. All is good with this one
Found on our Covid delayed 2020 Qld escape trip with Roostaman.

Brought the necessary tool with me this trip and had it open in no time. I’m visiting from Perth. Thanks for the cache.
While staying in the beautiful Barambah Bush Camping and Caravan Park we headed off early this morning to try for a few local caches.
We found the cache quickly and then had to return to the car to retrieve a better tool as the one we had taken with us didn’t fit.
Log was soon signed and the cache replaced.
This one deserves a favourite point....thanks for the hide GeckoSpit

This was a serendipitous find on our trip from Adelaide to Brisbane via the Birdsville Track.
We have been stopping intermittently tp grab at least 1 cache in each LGA for a Challenge we are working on. This was chosen as the “next up the road”. It was only after stopping that we realised the DT rating was one we would like.
So TOTT grabbed and off Brad went.
Cache located, logbook accessed as per the hint and our stamp applied. Date added. Everything replaced as found.

A quick find with the geogirls this morning. I had brought a screwdriver with me (I always carry one in my work toolbag) but it was too big for the job. I was able to slip a piece of paper in as my own log signed with our caching name as someone had done before me, however please delete my log and let me know if this is unacceptable and I will return with what is required next trip. Tftc GeckoSpit
I was without suitable TOTT, do I signed a fresh log and squeezed it in. Hope that is OK. TFTC
Fortunately we had read the description and brought the required tool to access the logbook.

Tools - you will need something to open cache.
Found quickly but took a little while for me to open until I remembered I had tott. Think this will be our last before heading to Chinchilla.

While camping in the Nanango area with my geodog Scruffy, we just had to get out & about finding some caches in the surrounding areas.
All Good .. TFTC ..

We had some trouble here trying to get into the container. We didn't see anything in the description or attributes indicating a special tool was required. We headed back to the geomobile to get the necessary equipment & were able to add our name to the log. Our tott was just long enough luckily. Tnsl tftc gs xo
Staying at Wondai with the caravan club and have to get a cache or two smileys . Tftc.
I had no trouble reaching this from the main road. Log is full and needs replacing.
This week-end Caro (from Jess & Caro) & myself teamed up for a few days of geocaching up this way. [^]
Day 3: We started the day really early as we had to be back in Toowoomba for my event at Midday.
This cache was found around 8 am.
Now to find a few more on our way south.
All finds were found quickly and generally in good condition unless stated.
Thanks for the caches.

Having stayed at the free campsite in Murgon for a couple of nights and geocached our way around the region, Brother Colin and I packed our tents up bright and early to make our way back south in time for his event in Toowoomba at midday.
I parked the car on the grass nearby and we walked over the trail to GZ, ummed and ahhed for a few minutes, admired the bridge, and then BC made his way to the cache while I said hi to a passing cyclist.

On our way to Murgon, passing through Wondai. There are a few new caches since we were here last, so though we had better pick them up. This was one.
And, it was an easy find. thanks GeckoSpit.

After a great day at wondai races yesterday we had stayed at the colonial down the road. I had to get this smiley so close. After going to wrong side of bridge we saw where we needed to be on other side. What a great place for a cache. I love the bvrt and loved this cache. Was able to use a tool we brought to open and sign the log. Giving this a fp . Thanks for placing this cache here for us to enjoy
TFTC. We had decided to overnight in Wondai. After lunch we went for a walk to explore the area. We also needed to do a bit of excercise as we had been sitting way to much over the last few weeks. A quick find walking along the rail trail.
Interesting and different cache container that was well hidden. Found some lovely purple/pink flowers blooming on a bush as we made our way to GZ.

We will be leaving very soon to attend the Red Centre Experience Event being held in Alice Springs and have decided we would try to make that event a milestone ... the only problem is we are a few hundred caches short This was the perfect excuse for a quick road trip through Nanango/Murgon/Kingaroy The weather was a little rainy, but surprisingly we remained relatively dry during the day with the worst of the rain occurring while we camped overnight [^]
We managed to locate this cache easily and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our journey.
Thank you GeckoSpit for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

For some time I've been meaning to get back to visit the Burnett region, and today was the day. An early start was made and a long 12.5 hr day was spent driving 650km through Blackbutt, Yarraman, Nanango, Kingaroy, Murgon, and up to Boat Mountain before returning.
Found in good condition, it seems SweetSour missed the hint in the title when searching. It is definitely there, no need for maintenance.
Thanks **GeckoSpit** for bringing us here, this find makes smilie #3371. Discover our trackable TGQNRV .

On my way out to Kingaroy area to continue with my hunt, that was terminated short last week with a dead fuel pump.
Please disregard my previous NM log. What a difference the approach makes.
Last week I bush bashed in from the back road, as suggested, forget it, wrong. This week, approached from the Hwy, much easier, no country fortifications to battle with, all lovely mowed grounds to walk over, crossed the bridge and spotted the hide, good one Gus.

On my way out to Kingaroy area for a couple of days caching.
sorry to say this one is MIA.
The old rail bridge has been converted into a pedestrian bridge for the Wandai to Kingaroy rail trail, there is no gates on it anymore.
Either replace in a new hide or archive

Need a Phillips head screwdriver to open. We approached from highway side ok. Easy find. TFTC.
Found it but unfortunately could not open as no screwdriver will have to sign another time.
