Out in the area for the day and this was the next.
Hint made for a quick find. What a clever idea. Will approach CO and seek permission for a similar hide.
Log signed, cache removed at CO's request.
A favourite from me.

Now I get it. Very clever. I’m sure that I checked there at least 10 times last time I was here.
As I was writing up some notes I was approached by a homeowner from up the ridge behind the cache site wanting to know what I was doing around the rock wall. He wasn’t really agro but he did appear to be quite concerned about the goings on around there. The cache site is in plain view from his patio and he is concerned about the number of people searching or something around the rock walls, particularly at night. I explained in some detail what caching is about and gave him the address of the web page so he could check it all out. He seemed to be satisfied with that but I not sure that his wife was – she still looked very sceptical. Anyway it seemed all cool in the end but I’m not sure if we have a convert just yet though.

Nice easy find tried to be as quick as possible to sign logbook as there was a fair bit of traffic. tftc
Found the items in the hint – fair distance between them though. Couldn’t find the cache despite turning over every rock within spitting distance.
Found this one with Muddtrax who walked right past it. Nice camo in the wall but didn't stay hidden very long. TFTC SL
Found with Krossbo at night. Log book was full so we left a new log sheet. TFTVCC!! [^]

Hardest part of this one was crossing the road on foot. Luckily today it was not so busy. Quick find clever cache camo. TFTC.
I found this one as i returned home from work today after spotting it on the gps yesterday in the truck. Today, i was in the ute which made it a little easier to park close by As i approached GZ, i spotted the hide upside down and very exposed to the passerby. All was ok and dry so i signed the log, hid it a little better and moved on quickly as there was still quite a bit of traffic about even at 2:30. Thanks again wingaap
At last, a rockwall cache that was fun to find. Cute hide, great cache - thank you!
First one on a day out with MudStalker. I LOVE rock walls....no, really I do!!!! I suspect however, that this PARTICULAR rock wall cache will lull MudStalker into a false sense of security .
Thanks for the cache Wingaap. Cheers, svn07

Very unique! Well done! Picked it up initially not realising it was the cache. Needs new log book.
A clever hide in an otherwise unremarkable spot. The book is full and I had to write on the inside of the cardboard cover. TFTC
Found (15:32) on way home from nearby cache event.....
Normally end up tearing my hair out over these wall caches but luckily today just wandered up & their it was (maybe age has something to do withit & beig familiar with the music era mentioned...

Found the wall and some brick ,they were up high,so up I climb ,only to find I am at the wrong spot ,needed to be down the hill a little.glad that caching is done while no one is around
The log book is full. I used the next to last page yesterday, writing as small as I could.
Found it! There were a few decoy bricks as well we had to check before finding the right one.
I felt exposed here on the main road, even at night. TFTC.

Another tricky Wingy cache. I even picked this up to move it in my search and then though that is a material that he has used before. ta da. TFTC

Wait...there's cars....ok go now...NO...wait...more cars....Ready?...Now...NO! Wait...Ok, In the next break in the traffic we'll get it.....alright...No-....DOH!

Signed this one on the way to work this morning Quick easy cache but believe it or not I was not looking for that and I know I should have been. lol

445 - One of the easiest drive by caches we have done yet, a quick find at 2:13pm. TFTC Wingaap.
Great cache. Well titled, and I love EngPhil's earlier comment with the Pink Floyd reference very witty.
Almost done for the day now. Getting dark.
TFTC!

All in all, it was much easier than I expected! I thought we'd be settling in for an epic search but it jumped out at me in under a minute. TFTC wingaap!
I didn't even get a chance at this one, EngPhil was much too quick for me Very nice hide, personally I like these but I know a few others who don't! TFTC
Found at 2237 by Mrs Simia on the quest for our 200th cache.
Not too difficult at all once we'd read the clues and it was only a minute or so before Mrs Simia had spotted this one and we quickly signed the log and got on our way.We had 2 more to get to the magical 200 mark
Cache in good condition. TFTC

I had visited this cache back in 2005 as a member of The Happy Wanderers, but nice to revisit with clankirks and find it still nestled in it's home, near a very busy road. Thanks wingaap.
We don't need no education. We don't need no school control. Comfortably numb by now.
at 10:41. Found it easily but we liked it a lot. Very clever. It is in good condition. TFTC Wingaap.
missed it on the first sweep. Son also missed it but after he mentionned brick again, found in 30 seconds. Just have to look in the right place.
This was another quick drive by for Mrs Coffee and myself on our way back to the suburbs. We parked the car, made a dash across the road and found the well hidden cache in the first place we looked
Thanks wingaap for the cache

Caching in Brisbane while waiting for geohubby to finish in a conference. How many can I get going from closest to closest bouncing my way around the northern suburbs? 35, before boredom sunk in and I went back to a friends to eat icecream. TFTC
Loki *groaned* at the thought of another rockwall cache. But after much time spent trying to be inconspicuous, "what's that? a brick!!!!". Great hide. TFTC wingaap

Sneaky and diabolical. LOVE IT. After stopping further up in the wrong spot, finally got to the right section and found pretty quickly after that. Very Clever.

Well, this was a lot easier than I expected. I pulled up and looked over the road and thought, Ooh, a micro in there somewhere...
When I strolled up to GZ, it was nice and obvious and an easy grab. All I needed was a rock to lean on... Ahh well, can't have it all... [^]

Found at 1425hrs with bluegonz. bluegonz went on ahead and found it quickly before I caught up. Thanks wingaap
Geohusband stopped so I could find this one. He'd been here just 2 days ago! Not so difficult. TFTC
Previous logs talk of Frogger and 33rpm. You've really dredged up some memories for us "older" cachers here 'wingaap'. After doing "soylent green" up the road, I was quite overwhelmed by memories. Even memories of "The Wall" (that I never did find [:(!]). Oh well, this was a lot easier. TN/LN/SL.
Found this one with the Jethro Tull song "Thick as a Brick" spinning at 33 rpm in my head. Thanks for the trip down memory lane or is that "Penny Lane" ?
Had flashbacks of Frogger finding this cache. All in all it's just another brick in the wall. TFTC
I strolled up, I strolled back, I strolled up, I strolled back, I strolled up, I strolled ba.......ah, there it is TFTC Wingaap.
Saw a couple of bricks up high, but kept looking for another. Found fairly quickly. TFTC. Clever hide in plain sight. Relogging as instructed by Groundspeak, originally as devware.

Over here from Perth on a geocaching/visit-the-family holiday. Out today caching with Questing4. Being a micro we thought that this was going to be like looking for a needle in a haystack but we found it without any problems. Nicely hidden. TFTH.
I must be getting used to your thinking wingaap. This cache was located after a short search. Thanks for another testing but enjoyable cache.
OK, I knew what I was looking for, and I knew where I was looking for it.... didn't need much edjumucation for this one.
cache in good condition.
thanks wingaap.

Found by Jabiru230. A busy place but no problem grabing the prize or puting it back. Another imaginative cache Thanks Wingy.
Woo-hoooo! Our 100th cache find and a nicely made one too! We love clever containers like these. SL-TFTC.

In Brissy for a caching blitz with Steeba and Big Matt. What we expected to be a hard find was totally the opposite, funny how things like that happen.
Thanks

Very nice little hidey hole.
A challenge from the passing motorists to be sluethy.

Find 29 of 42 on a day of caching with Kholometers and Tratty. Kholometers found the cache right away and picked it up. However, just as he did a gardener walked up and started whipper snipping the path behind us. He wasn't in a hurry so we put the brick back down and moved on without signing the log - TFTC.
surprisingly we found this instantly - we don't have the cache names on our GPS and was expecting this to be one of the 'Rock on' series, so was somewhat surprised by the brick.
nice that there is close parking as well.

I don't know what happened to the GPS Co-ords however I seen the wall knew what I was supposed to do but my GPS took me 100 metres down a side street opposite the 'wall'. I will try again for sure.!
When I first saw the rocks, I thought oh no it would take us hours to find the cache...but no luckily us it was a quick find. Brilliant cache!
Accompanied with Ozcymru for the day. Ozcymru found it within few seconds. SL. Thanks Wingaap for organising the cache and hunt.
Yep, the old rock hide..... had the Fluro vest on for this one ( as seen in photo), thanks for the cache.
Not one of my favourite looking places so was mighty pleased it didn't take too long. Nice hide.
