Really needs a CO checkup

I didnt find it

Didnt find it

We will be up at Boreen Point over the Christmas holidays. I will check on this cache then to confirm if it is still in place.

With all the recent DNF I thought Id still give it a go but it was a bust so perhaps the cache is gone altogether

No joy for us today.

Couldnt find it

No luck on this one unless you call losing sunglasses in the brush and then finding them again. Which i am more pleased with that the cache tbh. Maybe if 8 camp here again, I'll find it.

Could not find the cache after looking around for quite some time. Very well hidden

Secret7(P) I didn’t find your cache A cache for Grandpa on 27/3/2023, 12:40 pm. Checked a few likely places but nothing found.

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location.
(HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do.

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

Devilish

Brilliant and Clever

I like it

Another one off the list

Looked for half an hour but GPS no help so really tricky and could not find.

We found this cache as part of a little trip around the hinterland of the Sunshine Coast, looking for 2/2 caches. We pulled up in the geomobile Hank in the pub carpark and then set out on foot. This is a beautiful area, and the rainforest is varied. It was also warm and humid, so it was sweaty work getting to GZ. At GZ, we looked and looked. Fortunately, we had some of our TOTT, so we could look without putting our hands into places we could not see. Eventually, we found the cache. The cache is in good condition. We left a pathtag. Thank you for this cache Secret7(P).

After having lunch at the pub with relatives that live around here I set off for what I told them would be a quick find, followed one track and then another before scub bashing directly to GZ, once there it was still not an easy find.
Back to the carpark, took a wrong turn and ended up about 400 metres from where I started, it wasn't a great idea after a few beers.

Not having much luck in Boreen Point today.

A beautiful bird was dancing around the GZ. It was orange and brown. A small hopping bird like a finch. All good with cache. Found on day 3 of my 7 day bicycle tour. Camped nearby at Boreen Point so taking the opportunity to hunt for local caches on foot. Wish I ahead mozzie spray!

Had an enjoyable time with the SPREGTH (for Snickersallan, Patrol14, RoddyC, E_Smiley, GrannySmith1947, TMZ59 and Hatzofff) Team. So happy to meet them again just like the good old days.
Thanks for the cache Secret7(P).

Catching up on some logging today, so a bit of a generic log, I'm afraid.

I was caching with Snickersallan, Patrol14, hatzofff, E Smiley, grannysmith1947, and TMZ 59, giving rise to the team name of SPREGTH. Although not fully operative yet, I was able to tag along to most of the caches we found. Some Events brought us into this area.

I had to retire early from the hunt - it was taking a long time. But glad my name is in the log sheet.

Log signed and cache replaced as found on May 1st 2021. TFTC, Secret7(P).

Out with Team SPREGTH, Snickersallan, patrol14, RoddyC, E Smilie, grannysmith1947, TMZ59,and Hatzoff. Great day of caching with these crazies. TFTC. Took us a while but we finally found it.

TFTC smile 9043 out and about with 7 geo caching friends signed as SPREGTH and miss millie geo dog and a lovely day we had great cache
Thank you, Secret7(P), for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Another adventure for the weekend to attend events on the sunshine coast with Snickersallan, Patrol14, RoddyC, E Smiley, grannysmith1947 , team TMZ 69, hatzofff (team of SPREGTH) to chase down some more smiles.

We searched and searched far too long but patience and PAF pays off. Yes a logical place.

Weekend adventure with RoddyC hatzofff Snickersallan grannysmith 1947 TMZ59 caching in the surrounding area.

A tricky hide and spent way too much time looking for this one. PAF narrowed the search but checked a place I had searched before and sure enough there it was. SL then returned as found.

Found on 1 May 2021. TFTC, Secret7(P).

A long weekend away at Platypuscove Homestay caching in the local district with geo friends, patrol14, RoddyC, E_Smiley, grannysmith1947, TMZ59, hatzofff and to save space on the logs, we signed as Team SPREGTH.
Took longer than expected to find but all good with the cache.

Wednesday. We were enjoying a lovely camping holiday at Boreen Point and thought we’d find some caches. This was a lovely area and as we walked through the vacant bit of land, we came across what we thought was the loneliest basketball court in all of Oz. Just as we finished saying that, a group of young teenagers came racing up on their bikes and starting playing on it! Go figure. We made our way carefully past some of the most beautiful spiders and then coming up to GZ, had a couple of minutes looking (there were a few good spots to hide a cache here), before Mr SP said he spotted it! We popped our names in the log and picked our way back to the basketball court. We found this cache, but not it’s sister cache for Gran.

This was the 3rd of 4 caches found on this outing.

Thanks ***Secret7(P)*** for showing us this place

Muggle65 and l are staying at the camp grounds. We decided to grab a cache this evening and this one was the closest. We managed to find a track off the BMX area and soon found ourselves at GZ. There were so many places to look but soon M65 called out those magic words Found It. Thank you so much for placing this one.

Well whata you know TGG & I have come to Boreen Point to do some yakking tomorrow if weather permits. After the obligatory tent erection, unpacking & blowing up the bed we had a drink & noted a few local hides so after walking around the park to get our bearings, Boom! Found it after a wee meander through the bush. Thank you for this treasure

So many crannies to search! Thanks for bringing me on this hunt to discover these paths through the forest.

A little bit of a challenge to find. Jumped over a log or two. Then saw the green lid amongst the brown. TFTF

A new year and a new years souvenir on offer! Took me a while to work out the best way and decided to go from back of the pub car park. Got within 60m and went cross country, the classic caching error, because who knew there was a trail to the cache!

Took a few minutes to find but i noticed its just out of the corner of my eye. Cache condition was all good!

Thanks Secret7(P) for the cache and hunt!

A pretty walk in and a great spot for kids to play. The dogs even got to explore in the nearby offlead area tftc

GPS was bouncy but it was a nice little hide. Thanks!

No luck on this, very little GPS doesn't help.

Managed to wander around in the forest a bit more than necessary but got there in the end. TFTC!

TFTC. Found with Platzplays. Really hard to find

An awesome location, well done, what treasure to be found. The team came back for round #2. Hanging low under grandpa’s nuts, the fork in the old tree would be his crutch!!!

First time, 9:30pm at night, 7 kids in hand, no find, will return in the morning with the troops!!!!

We followed the path from the campsite office in the direction of the pub sign and took a path to the left up the little hill. Took another path to the left and we eventually found ourselves at GZ. No marshy ground or mosquitoes today thank goodness. This was a well hidden geocache. TFTC.

Odloveno s "blech" při kempování v nedaleké kempu. Díka za kešku a pozdrav z České republiky.
Found with "blech" when camping in a nearby camp. Thanks for the cache and greeting from the Czech Republic.

That was a trek, wet n swampy lol. Great little cache, out with my geodaughter. Will move the trackable on too. TFTC

So much fun, bring gum boots and don’t wear long pants TFTC

OMG...the mozzies at this place...lol.

I dont feel mozzies unless they are bad, and they were bad here.

Nice spot for a cache though

Thanks Secret7

Couldnt find it spent an hour in the scrub... we pin pointed the coordinates. Had to abandon mission due to frustration. Would like to know if it has been found recently..

After arriving at camp and setting up with 1MinnieMoo, wombles and the munchkins, we checked the geocaching map and discovered a cache only 90 metres away!
Woohoo, how hard can it be to find a cache only 90 metres away? If Grandpa can find it....

HAHA!!!! Only as hard as wandering 30 metres through a swamp to get to GZ.
I think Grandpa knew the secret way in!

Happily after our nature tour through the wetter side of Boreen Point campgrounds 1GiantPanda called out the triumphiant call of "found it"

We all left our scribble and replaced the cache as found. Now to find the path out without the swamp.

Thanks for the cache Secret7(P)

After setting up our camp for the night, Nyssaflutterby mentioned we were only 90m from a cache.
90m? Ha, that's nothing right?...right??
Well we sure did take the hard way in to this one and found the local hang out for mossies!
We opted to take the easy way out, while trying to shake off all the mossies.
Thanks for the adventure Secret7

17/12/17, 3:58 pm Find #1297
Camping here for the night with 2 of my geokids, NyssaFlutterby and one of her geokids, and Wombles and Co. After setting up our campsite we noticed there was a cache only 90 mins away from where we were camping, so headed over for what we though would be just a small bush-bash. But with 30 metres to go we ended up trudging through swamp to make our find, which 1GiantPanda spotted as we all began our search..... of course there was an easier way however, and with mozzies attacking us, we opted for the clearer route back, heading back out down the path from the pub.
Thanks for the cache Secret7(P).

Finally found a way in TFTC

Compliments on the camo. Yes the mozzies are voracious. TFTC. Left a travel bug.

Found about 7 metres from GZ.
TFTC

Dnf. Didn't stick around looking for very long the mozzies drove us out!

Found it cool but my pen is not very good TFTC

TFTF secret 7. Love the Granpa too!

Owner Maintenance

----------

**Time** - 2:00pm
**Cache condition** - Fine, logbook is dry. Still plenty of swaps
**Notes** -Path to GZ is slightly overgrown, but still accessible

Secret7(P)

Easy stroll from campground to locate this cache
Gps a little off due to trees
Cache and contents all good

Mozzies galore. Lantana scratches. And a phone a friend call. And finally - found the cache! Thanks for the hide and for taking us where we have never been before.

Just adding that we are giving this a favourite point because we absolutely LOVE the Grandpa you have honoured with this cache. X

Out and about with barbbowman and Just a Trifle to celebrate multi milestones for JaT.

As we normally do, we tried to approach from he wrong way. With that mistake soon rectified we were soon closing in on GZ.

Cache located and log signed.

TFTH

Well the day has finally arrived for us to celebrate our 10th geo-birthday and we had decided to make it a very memorable day indeed [^] We had a specific target cache in the area to celebrate the occasion plus another milestone or two but before we could do that one, we needed just a few more cache finds FastEd59 and barbbowman came with us for our outing and to our surprise, today would also be a milestone day for FastEd59

Now what better place could we go to than the Boreen Point / Noosa area Today's caching reminded us of just how beautiful the Noosa River, Lake Cootharaba and surrounds really is ... if only we could live here all the time

We were not quite sure of the correct approach to the cache but we eventually found a way in and then the challenge began. It didn't take too long though before the cache was in hand and our names added to the logbook.

Thank you Secret7(P) for having placed the series and maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

invited along to share an amazing milestone with justatrifle ... 10 years ... 6000 ... 1000 [?] ... 3rd D/T

Found it with WallabyTim. Sorry about the delayed log. We had previously found the cache for Grandma (which was my 100th cache) and were keen to keep Grandpa happy too! Took us two visits to find the clever spot after losing light on our first attempt. Thanks to this cache we were able to discover the walking tracks through here to change up our daily walks. Thanks for the cache!

Out and about with my amazing geo-partner KaleidoscopeCass. just a short stroll from home. Had to grab it on our walk. All is good. Thanks for the cache!

After a nice lunch at the Appollonian, although it was a long wait being Sunday and very crowded, we ducked off into the bush behind the carpark. We found the track down the hill and had not realised that this one was here, as we'd only used the one that starts near the road at the eastern side of the hotel before.
Interesting viney bush. We found a narrower trail further along and following the arrow, came across a bit of a clearing with heaps of potential hiding spots. We set out scouring all the hollows and logs and bases of trees, then trees further away and started to get a little frustrated. We looked back at previous logs for clues - it must be here somewhere! [8)]
Daughter no.2 sent a text wanting to be picked up from the beach earlier, so the pressure was really on. I was starting to get indigestion after so much bending and crawling around so soon after the barrimundi and chips.
After one last extended search in one spot, also utilising the phone torch, we finally spotted something but it was just out of reach! [:(!] After a change in position and longer stretch, J managed to retrieve the elusive container. Thank goodness for that, after such a long search...
Took gingerbread man Shrek card, left fairy.
Also left Wendy Thurston the Wombat travel bug, to continue on her adventures.
We had a quick tour of the lakeshore interested to see the variety of sails out of the lake racing but will have to leave the other 2 here that we are still to find, for next time. We'll have to not leave it so long between visits next time (and maybe not on a Sunday).

Found Ok

After lunch at the pub, we paid a second visit to this one with muggle friends and the cache was soon found. TFTC Secret7(P)

Found it after a walk up from the beach, it was a warm morning and the pub looking inviting but it was a bit early. Should have done it in the afternoon. Thanks Secret7(P)

Arrived in lovely Boreen Point as we had not been here since we were first to find Grandma.
Whoops better come back and find Grandpa.
After a roundabout way to get to GZ, we finally stumbled on Grandpa.
He was having a nice rest, and allowed us to sign the log.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Secret7(P) All good with this cache

After a successful ftf hunt down the road, better have another look for this one with the new cords, last time I was here, had the original cords, makes it a bit difficult to find.
The same happened to me again, the GPS took so long to settle, combo of tree cover and cloud cover.

All with the cache and a good hide. and you earn't yourselves a favourite point
TFTC Secret7(P)

After grabbing a nearby cache that was a little more wet then this, Ashleez, ZoolandR and I thought we should pay this one a visit also.

We just wandered along on our way to ground zero when I realized that I had stuffed up my PQs and for some reason did not have this cache in the GPSr. So, it was all up to Zooy to lead the way. We followed along like little ducklings and not before long were where we needed to be.

There were quite a few great hiding places at ground zero, and after inspecting a few, there was a little area that looked a little out of place. With closer inspection, a geocache was revealed! After a quick (and I mean quick due to the moozies that we about to fly away with us) look over the cache whilst adding our names to the log, we placed everything back home and ran out of the mozzies lair.

Thanks for another cache Secret7(P). All is in good order with this cache also.

Geodog seemed to know a little more than we did. Bring mozzie repellent! TFTC!

I had to be in Gympie for a 1115 meeting and this meeting concluded at 1230. I had a hide to maintain Lake View further up the road so I took the opportunity to find some new hides since my last visit. Decided to park in the hotel car park as Google Earth indicated only a very short walk from here.

The grounds were packed with people and the car park was nearly full. Managed to find a car park spot right up the end close to the residence. Could have parked on the road much further away as all the spots close to the hotel were occupied. A lot of men in suits or shirts and ties and ladies in good quality attire.

Walked back along the edge of the forest till I spied a track heading in the right direction. Left the track and followed the compass on the GPSr and was standing at zero metres to go according to the GPSr. Found it 8 metres away but these things can take awhile to settle in country like this. Had a very good look around and spied a couple of objects where this one could be. Soon was able to LOG my name in the cache LOG. The hide is closer to the put then where my GPSr wanted me to be. I took the Teddy TB that was waiting for a lift. Will have to come back when I have some more time as I left Nanango at 0400 and it was now 1500 and I had a three hour drive home by another cache up in the hinterland. No time to go for a walk up the beach to get the three along there.
TFTC Secret7(P)

Found it left TB hopefully he doesn't hang round here too long

Dropped off TB

I knew I had this one in the GPS, but on the date it was published, not there at the old cords, I wonder why
Have now updated my GPS
TFTH as a famous general once said *I will return*

I'm not sure what is going on here because I logged this yesterday, yet it still shows as not found on the map and in my totals. I was the first to find it in its new location and with a new log book. Maybe that has something to do with it. Anyhow it was a nice cache in a great location. Thanks

TFTC. What a great way to spend the long weekend.

Search for a long time for this one but with so many possible hides - no luck today.

Had an old pocket query loaded, before the maintenance was done and the cache relocated. So it appears there is a reason for not being able to find it! Will take a wander tomorrow after lunch at the pub to the new coords

I have moved the cache dwon the hill a far way.It is now closer to the BMX jumps,but still accessible from the Pub carpark or Teewah Rd. Same container.Hopefully this one will last longer.

I have moved the cache down the hill a far way.It is now closer to the BMX jumps,but still accessible from the Pub carpark or Teewah Rd. Same container.Hopefully this one will last longer.

After a stroll along the beach for a few other caches I headed across some playing fields in the hope of finding a way to this one. Lots of trails from the caravan park towards the pub.

I passed an interesting sign on the way to GZ. I am glad I did not run in to anything that made me tingle. [:o)]

Somebody has taken the base of the container for this one. [:(!] There is just the lid left and the bag with the log book. Sadly the log is very wet. It needs a new container.

Out for an early morning stroll after a soggy night. Found GZ quickly but the cache is in a poor state with only a lid and a log left of the cache!

TFTC

Out with Rover3 for the morning after the midnight downpour. Didn't find much of the cache apart from the logbook and lid.

Time to go back for some breakfast. Cheers.

Don't know how this one has disappeared so fast:(. Will endeavour to replace it in the next couple of weeks.

We parked at the pub and walked down to GZ where we found the cache after just stepping off the track. We headed back and had lunch at the pub after logging the find. TNLNSL TFTC

*FTF* on 2.2.2016 @ 9.55 am.

I had noticed that two caches were recently published in the Boreen Point area. When the first one was published, we had been out all day and it was very hot so we decided to leave it for another day.

A day or so later this cache was published but at the time we were having heavy thunderstorms and rain and when it was not raining, it was very hot. I had decided that I would not try for a FTF as someone else will most probable obtain it.

I looked at the cache listing today and noticed that the FTF had not been claimed and as it was still a little bit cooler (relatively), we might take a drive and try our luck.

We parked in the shade in the pub carpark and made our way to GZ. Be aware of the low tree branch when entering the track. If you are not vertically challenged, it will get you if you are not looking.

When we arrived at GZ, a short search revealed what we were after. The log was signed and returned to the cache and the cache returned exactly as found. Thanks for the FTF trophy that was with the cache.

All is good with this cache.

Find #342.
