After 20 min of searching for the chase, we messaged the owner. The owner told us that it was not here unless we had a spare container... I want to tell everybody who is going to look for this chase , please don't waste your time on coming here because there is no cache. It's lost and the owner has to put it on archive.

No trouble with the quiz and my son soon made the find after a scramble I could never have made
 
26-Mar-23
With Old Man Hands on Maggie for work and having some spare time, might as well do a few caches. Was a easy solve and a walk to the final destination.
 
24-Feb-23
Solved but stopped climbing where T2.5 ends for me. Didn't want to reach into holes I couldn't see either.
 
28-Dec-22
Day 6 of the annual Crooked Clan North Queensland Christmas Celebration Catch Up with my in laws. Today is the first full day on Maggie.

With one of the clan working up the learners hours to get his license, we decided on a drive to West Point to give him some time behind the wheel. On the return trip, we stopped here to say hello to my brother in law who was staying just up the beach a bit and also to make the find.

There has been some construction at GZ over Christmas. A ladder has been fashioned and an old pallet is now the floor of a tree house. After quite some time searching, I was ready to call the DNF. I challenge my teenage son and nieces to make the find. Whilst chatting with the in laws nearby, I heard some excited hollering from the tree.

My son, TCC505, uncovered the find under some natural camo in a little hidey hole. Not certain how long this one will last given the proximity to the tree house. Many thanks ThielFinders.

Was struggling a bit for this but a PAF put me closer to the prize than I was. So many little holes to lose small things in but I had been barking up the wrong tree looking in those. I got my hands on the monopoly money and signed before getting back down. Thanks for bringing me to this peaceful resting place.
Thanks ThielFinders for this hide GC9TGE9 Magnetic Island Quiz and giving back to our local caching community

Wow what an epic effort to find this one. We were climbing all over like monkeys!
Although those vines look easy to climb they were not that easy. Lucky nobody came by to question us. Thanks for the cache, I've been not having much luck on the island and finally the tide may have turned!

Short trip over to the island with BlackPearl for another strange hobby, golf.

Simple find after explaining the game to the resident yoga instructor. He thought there was nothing strange about grown men climbing trees. I wonder if he thought golf clubs were part of the game???

He’s clued up on the find at least and may now be able to point future finders in the right direction. Thanks ThielFinders for creating and placing this for us to enjoy.

Unlucky that the last searchers couldn't find this one because the GZ was occupied. Good luck next time

Found GZ but not the cache.

Enjoyed solving the puzzle. On our first visit to GZ we couldn't search because a group were having a prayer meeting. Went and had a coffee and returned but by then only time for a cursory search before needing to leave to catch our ferry.

Found at 2:50pm on the 13/6/22
Can’t believe it saw this cache a week ago and it’s still available. First question in puzzle not working but still easy to work out.

Came up to get out of the cold Victorian weather and to do a road trip from Rockhampton to Townsville and Magnetic Island with the family checking out the sights.
Stamped log on your $1 monopoly note, and what a fantastic spot to place your cache.
Giving it a favorite point for the location.
Posted a pic at gz.
Thanks for the cache.
