The GPS had been going to the wrong spot first but with limited options available the cache was soon to hand. TFTC.

TFTC. Did a cache in the park years ago.

Out to find a cache to keep my daily streak going - day 81 today! Lots of people and noise nearby as there is some sort of carnival going on! Since it's a micro I thought I knew what I was looking for and it didn't take long to locate. Thought I wasn't going to be able to get it open as the lid had been put on really tight but when I was ready to give up, it came open. Signed as MM10. TFTC

3rd time try and finally found it

Glad that was relatively easy, I always wonder when theres a 1.5 but with no hint

The area of GZ seems to be fenced off.

TFTC

looked for 30 minutes and dnf but my lunch break is over

Made harder work of that than I should have but got there in the end. TFTC

Thank you, crystalqueen78, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Quick find for our daily streak challenge. TFTC

Found quickly on today's bike loop.

Cool “little” find in the park. Park is just as described, cache was at the pin but not necessarily under a tree

After signing that log book
Great job thank you for the cache

Found after a little bit, I’m short so made it a bit more of a challenge but sometimes if you just take a few steps back you can see more.

crystalqueen78 I found your cache Bald hills History 1 on 26/4/2023, 11:45 am. This is my find 5112 and find # 4 today. A quick and easy find. Sneaky bugger. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN

Sneaky hide, thanks for the find

Beautiful spot tftf

Found with Brissy Cat.

GeoM declared he couldn’t last the whole way home from the Sunshine Coast without a stop so we pulled off the highway at the next geocache. With 3 of us searching it still took a long time to find it. Eventually I went back to where we first looked and searched a bit more thoroughly and finally found the sneaky little cache. Thanks crystalqueen78 for showing us this lovely spot just off the highway.

Out caching this weekend morning before the day heats up. Thanks for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.

Quick and easy find. I hadn’t even finished walking to GZ when Shazzar66 uttered the magic words. TFTC

#1 with Duppers after work.

TFTC from Norway/Australia. Visiting my wifes Uncle in Bald Hills, so had to find some Geocaches.

We went around and around for a good ten minutes,poked the poor . Just about to give up. As we were heading for the Bingo gotcha.. signed

In Brisbane staying with Family. Afternoon walk but could not locate. Thanks

This afternoon, I had an errand to run towards Bracken Ridge, so once that delivery was made, there was time for a couple of stops before returning home. Stanley Day Park was the main jog of the area, and then it was a final stop at Ewan Place Park.

I was heading home driving south along Norris Road when I thought I'd have a go for this geocache, as well as grabbing information on another waypoint for *Counting Beans*, so I approached this one from the east, parking off Barbour Road. Hence, it was a fair jog along the path to get to GZ, but I didn't mind getting some fitness during the late afternoon. Upon arriving at GZ, it didn't take long to find this sneaky, evil-sized cache container. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks crystalqueen78 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Came for an event. Nice to do some caches afterwards.

Replaced logbook.

Log signed and cache replaced as found at 3:02 PM on July 3, 2022. TFTC, crystalqueen78

Heading home after the event of the day and picking up a DNF, some challenges, a FTF and what ever was in the way.

Travelling & Caching with RoddyC & imbunda.


TFTCache crystalqueen78

After attending a Birthday Event it was time to sign some Challenges and also add a few caches to our found list with RoddyC and Hatsoff. Had to be stealthy here as there were people in the park. Log signed and replaced as found. TFTC

This cache is close to my house so I thought it’d be an easy one to tick off. Ended up being extremely difficult for some reason haha. Went on the hunt for this cache on 4 seperate occasions and finally found it with a few helpful nudges from TeamLambo. Surprisingly enough, it was in the spot I had originally checked on my first and second attempts but I obviously didn’t do a thorough enough search. Log full, may need replacing. Signed posey and dated. TFTC.

Did a bit of a tour of the local parks with my youngest daughter this morning. This was our first stop and there just happened to be a cache nearby. A quick find once we got to gz. Log is full but managed to squeeze some initials on there. TFTC

I made a quick find here while the police and the SES had a picnic in the park nearby. Thanks for the cache

One of the few caches round here that is still available. Pushing it far in is easy, but getting it out is harder. TftC.

Found after a few other unsuccessful searches with master57. Not too tricky. TFTC!

Finally found the first cache of the day thanks for giving us a reason to visit here

Found on my trip to the northern suburbs.

A nice straightforward hide but I did need a TOTT to extricate it. As previous finders have noted, the logbook is full but I could stamp right at the start still with care. Thanks for the history titbit and the cache crystalqueen78

A rediscovered draft log from several years ago! I think I was up here bringing junior geocacher #1 to a soccer match, and the dog and I went off exploring and checked out a few of the local hides.

️ logbook full

We found it quickly it was very well hidden Tftc .

Found quickly on our second visit (too many muggles on the first pass)

This geocacher reported that the logbook is full.

A Sunday spent getting hours for the L plater.
Some quiet streets in here, i could relax for a while
Thank you for hiding this geocache crystalqueen78

Heading home from work today and decided to take a break from the peak hour traffic. Saw this one wasn't too far off the main road and thought I would check it out. Took a look in what I thought was the obvious place, but the coords seemed off. Followed them a bit, and then spotted the sneaky little cache. Using some TOTT I extracted the log, but there was no where to sign. Log is full and needs replacing.

Beautiful park quick find. Log full. TFTC

With a busy day ahead preparing and hosting my sister's 50th birthday party, I made the most of the early morning and headed out this way with geopup to find a few caches.
On approaching GZ I knew exactly where to look and found the cache straight away.
The log was very full, I managed to scribble W7 in there along the side.
Thanks crystalqueen78 for placing the cache here.

I found it but didn't bother taking the log out to see it full and not able to sign

Yay got at least 1 today after 4 DNF
Log is full.

Log is full.

Out today to continue my challenges of a cache a day and a trad a day, while work has been getting in the way of my caching I managed to finish early today and headed up to Bald Hills way to grab a few that I had been leaving for a slow day. There are just five on this side of the road that I was after and it turned out I got four and a DNF on one in the area.

This was the fourth cache and it turned out to be an easy find, I parked to the side of the park and a short walk in to GZ. I found the cache very easily though it was a little hard to extract from its hide. Once out and with cache in hand it was now a mission to get it out. Once out the log had just one spot left for a signature, once signed I replaced the log and the cache as found.

Thank you for placing this one here, log does need replacing.

Nice easy find log is full

TFTC

A quick find but then it took a bit of poking to get the cache out of the hiding spot.

TFTC crystalqueen78

I stopped and thought “you won’t need your bag - more hands to hold the umbrella”. Right.... wrong... car keys didn’t work, pen didn’t work... back to car for correct TOTT... and by now it’s really raining... as previously mentioned the log is full... tftc... sneaky...

This geocacher reported that the logbook is full.

Found it with TBU1BIKESU.TFTC

Our daily exercise takes place in Bald Hills.

Tftc

Couldn't find 3 then this one. Yay

A nice little find in a lovely spot. The log is full and needs replacing. I found a spot and signed. TFTC

Back to the area again, aiming 365 days challenge. Was barking at something else before we found it sweet hide! Thank You

I do like a good micro that’s not hard to locate

Second last cache for the day. The park looks wonderful after all the rain.

Found with lisylou and mnance101 today today

Quick find with bennyboppers and mnance101 today. Tftc

Out caching with the Tough Mothers (Bennyboppers and Lisylou). TFTC!

Tftc. Put this on my watch list and saw there were two finds and a did not find since our recent visit. So back down today to have another go. The compass behaved itself and in no time we had the cache in hand.

Out for an afternoon cache before the family heads over for a family Dinner.

Looking to clean up more of my North Brisbane map

Couldn’t find it after a thorough search

Had husband with me today. After dropping in to see my mum we detoured past here to grab a traditional cache. Was in no hurry today for the find but it turned out to be a quick park and grab. Log signed and replaced
TFTC crystalqueen78

Wow. This was a difficult one for us. The compass was flying everywhere whilst standing still. Going from 2 metres to 40metres. Searched a couple of obvious spots, but could not find it. Will go back when we have the time.

Had this beautiful little park to myself this morning TFTC

I needed a traditional cache for the day and this happened to be only a small detour from my path home. Quickly spotted at the GZ, but then had to wait on a family in the playground to move on before signing. TFTC!

Very quick find for this cache. Only a few options to choose from. Checked one spot, nope, then checked another and saw something a little out of place. Plenty of people out and about on the path this afternoon. TFTC

Loved this teeny tiny cache!

Rolling up a nano log is a challenge for arthritic fingers but I got there in the end.

First one for the day. Park and grab. TFTC

Nice quick find - had to be super sneaky as Mums and bubs we’re playing nearby. TFTC

Bust today after work so zoomed via this cache this morning to fill in the calendar for today. Glad I researched it first as made for a quick grab although the rolling as always was traumatic! Tftc

Pulled and OMGOSH it’s soccer central here. So busy though as it made a perfect cover for some standing around trying to spot something.

14/7/19 11:16 am Find #2593
I needed one more particular cache for the second souvenir, and with the day I had booked up today, didn’t have too much chance to get it....
Until I had to take 1MinnieMooJnr to Scarborough meaning this one close to home would be easy enough to detour to on the return journey, and it ticked the right box.
So with Omen Innuendo getting some driving time up at the same time, we headed here.
I was here when this one was first published.... but then it was unpublished, and I had no idea what was going on. So I didn’t end up getting it then.
But today was a different story. It took a moment or two to realise the cache had moved a bit from first publishing, and I had walked further than I needed to, but soon had the tiny cache in hand.
Thanks for the cache crystalqueen78

Hooray

After work I needed to find a cache for finding a traditional cache every day of the year challenge and after a dnf nearby I was lucky to spot this tiny cache . Thanks for placing this cache here for us to enjoy

Cache was quickly spotted but retrieval was a little difficult. But with some pushing it exited its spot.

It me who got to say ‘found it’... or more text it as frannymfrog was still in the car! After a day of jobs we had caches to find... and this one was on our list. The playground was empty, thankfully, with a few people down the other end of the park. It was a very quick find which was good because as soon as we got back in the car, muggles appeared! TFTC! Found with frannymfrog logged as 3K!

Wow ... out and about with potatochips101 who was onto this before I’d even got out of the car !
Coast was relatively clear enabling a quick retrieval ... sign ... and return. TFTC !

Nice easy spot and find. Tftc

Found

Tricky little bugger. Literally LITTLE bugger!

Had a blinder here as I interpreted the finding of the cache wrong.
Spent way too long here.
The park was empty too.
Went back and checked one more space and there it was.
Signed the log and returned to where I found it.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks crystalqueen78 All good with this cache

I had to wait for a muggle family to leave the park. I spent a long time perusing the bike path maps.

A quick find once the coast was clear.

At my last attempt here, I was accused of ill-intent with the occupied playground. 2day, no one about & a fairly quick find despite a wandering compass. TFTC

Found quickly but took me a minute to get it from its spot. Love these ones. TFTC

Sneaky little hide had kids with me their sharp eyes spotted it TFTC

Looking at the time we knew our muggle daughter was bound to ring through soon for a lift home as the shops would be shutting soon and a shopping centre with no shops open is as about as useful as an empty wine bottle.

Without a phone call coming through just yet, we were still on the hunt to find a couple more caches as her waiting for us is far better than us sitting in the carpark waiting for her saying ‘Hang on, I’ll be another 5 minutes about 10 times.’ Another find here and time to move on.
