One in a hole! West End, Queensland, Australia
By wingaap on 18-Dec-05. Waypoint GCRNAJ

found it with Dosshell, also there is a native bee hive in the area for you entomologists.

If finders cant be bothered to replace the log book in the cache container properly....I cant be bothered maintaining it.

Found the logbook, is there meant to be a cache container? Happy hunting all

Found @ 16:20hrs on a very nice QLD day.TFTC

Found it. Lovely spot.

Thanks to WCSS 2010, Brisbane.
My last day in Brisbane. Coming back from Lonely Pine during changing from bus to ferry.

Found during a raid on Brisbane with The Rats, Big Matt and Shell and Steeba.

A quick find however the local didn't appreciate our presence. TFTC.

#4381 Found this cache as part of a recent brissy raid along with Steeba, Big Matt and Farmer Frentzen. Only the brave beckon those, the cache was soon in hand.
Thanks

Found this cache with FarmerFrentzen, steeba and The Rats on our 2010 Brisbane Invasion Trip. This was our 4178th overall find. This cache was our 12th out of 101 for the day.

Found at about 06:26 AM. No issues finding this one, just got to bite the bullet and push your hand up there!

Thanks to wingaap for the cache.

Found with The Rats, Big Matt and Farmer Frentzen as The Gangsters on our Brisbane invasion trip.

After a brisk walk up the hill we got to GZ and The Rats put his hand in the hole. Some parrots above were cheeping away. TFTC!

an easy one! TFTC

Loved the hide for this one. Very unique

A great hide in a park being used by numerous families today. TFTC

Watch out for slimy and furry things.

thanks!

Nice spot! Keep feeling around! Took the trackable.

Love this type of hide (not). Only one place it could be and you know what you have to do to get it. Ugh!! Luckily my caching kit now includes a torch for checking this type of place before committing fingers. Took Travelling Critter, left Mini Seashell Geocoin.

Whoops forgot the traveller.

Nice spot. Tricky hide. Left Travel ingot. TFTC

#1406 (2/14 on a day of Brisbane caching). There looked to be a reasonable cache density in this part of the city (important when you are on foot) so we got the train to Auchflower station and headed off. This was the first we came to. Quickly found once we decoded the hint. TFTC.

Always worried about hides like this when caching in Australia - you don't know what may be lurking in the depths.
TFTC.

TFTC & Grettings from France & Paddington !
Nice view from here

Thought I woodn't but I twigged to it...

Great spot!! Tough to get a park today with basketball and scouts both brimming with people. Beautiful area but took a few deep breaths before diving in to make the find! One wonders how you came to choose this spot . Thanks wingaap

I was in the right place the first time, I just wasn't brave enough to take on the tiny serpent guardian! He had abandoned his post today so I could easily raid his treasure.

Nice cache, no idea how you found the spot! TNLNSL

Quick easy find today. TFTC

Relogging this under individual account, previously a member of Gaz'n'Kab account.

Previously logged under a team account. Re-logging with my individual account.

easy find!

Found the cache today, it was back where it 'should' have been last time I was here. EngPhil (who had already found it previously) came with me this time and provided a new container for the old split one. I've removed the maintenance request as everything has been fixed on it now. TFTC

Found this one with water rat after escaping from hospital for a while, an easier find than expected after reading the logs. thanks wingy

I tried to find this one a little while ago and was unsuccessful. I've since double checked with someone who did find it and I was indeed looking in the right spot. Can we have a check on this one please wingaap? Many thanks.

Got to the GZ and looked in the most obvious place but only found some giant ants and a baby snake. Either I'm blind or the GPS lead me to the wrong place. Had to stop the search when a horde of jogging muggles decided to stop in the park.

Might have to retry later!

Found this one tonight - little spooky

Gotcha !!! Easy find . TFTC

Cache container is split and the ziploc bags were both torn. Replaced the baggies but didn't have a suitable spare to replace the container.

Woof woof! Lovely dog having a play on the hill which made this spot a pleasure to visit. TFTC

Cache was easily visible approaching GZ. Palopinto and MissGeosie distracted the dog-walking muggle while I signed and replaced, tucking the container in a bit less obviously. A nice walk in the park, TFTC Wingaap!

TFTC, but the container needs maintenance.

the container is split as are the plastic bags and note paper is damp also was very visable where it was sitting possibly hidden better and has fallen but needs some fairly urgent attention

Beautiful spot did see some Curlews in the grove of trees near GZ good views tftc

With GeoWanee (of the GeoHarem) and WeekendMaverick showing me to ropes, we found this one easily.

GeoWanee (of the GeoHarem) takes myself and DadNDog to this location each week anyway so I thought we may as well knock this one over while we're here.

There were limited signs of ants and we had to take the cache with us while we search for the other cache nearby (due to Muggles exercising in the park).

We did replace it and hid it a bit better than what it was when we first found it.

The ants didn't bother today, I returned to the car to hopefully replace the container, which has it's lid missing, no luck, usually have these containers with spare change, wrong vehicle. Nice view from here. TFTC

Beautiful views from GZ, even if I was dancing the whole time to avoid the killer ants. GZ appears to be designed for a cache! Log book was full, cover to cover, so left a new sheet of paper. TNLNSL, TFTF.

[Visiting English grandfather and Aussie grandson are confident we found the cache location] a hollow tree [but very large black ants disuaded us from putting arms in to feel around. What protection do you advice?!

#115 Found at night during a quick trip up from Melb. Had hoped to leave 3 TBs in Brisbane that I'd bought up with me but this was the only cache I had time to find while visiting a friend in Wesley Hospital. As this cache was too small to leave TBs I'll settle for logging their visit here and take them back to Melb with me to leave elsewhere. TFTC

Wow. Thanks for a gr8 cache. TNLN SL

what kind of person finds GZ's like this. Only a die hard cacher. Did not enjoy the fear of the unknown. What the heck!!!

nice one wingaap. the log is almost full though.

Great hiding spot. TFTC

Great hiding spot! (How'd you find it?) I went with my sister, nephew and bro in law, and had a great time. All parties involved were very excited as this is our first find. There were a few muggles around, so we pretended to take photos around the area while looking for the cache (hope we weren't looking too suspicious). My sister finally saw the hiding spot and told us, this should be it! TFTC.

Don't like sticking my hand where I can't see, as there may be something I would rather not put my hand on but wait a cache!!! This makes it all worth while. TFTC

Nice walk in the park to find this one. Signed log. TFTC.

Good one Hide and wow cool breeze and view city............Need new note pad as full list... cheers

Found this 15:33 as quick stop on way home from BrizVegas Meet & Greet event

Nice hike through a park with lovely old trees spreading lots of shade...

Climbed another hill at least smaller than todays earlier expidition...

Cache soon to hand

SLTNLN

Thanks to Wingaap for another challenge

A very nice walk through the park area with aussie pixie on a warm day.
Easy find and all was well.

Visiting from France this was a short walk from our villa which took us up yet another hill, it was well worth the visit to this quiet park area
Thanks for the cache

On a lovely weekday picnic an easy find. Another wonderful Wingaap cache in a somewhat forgotten park. TFTC.

TFTC

TFTC! Did it on an sunny afternoon! Was a little bit tricky

Found with Aussieparamedic TFTC

Found with G-Mack TFTC

on a late nite wander with geomate aussieparamedic, have discovered the general location of cache, but was unable to discover by torch light, will need to return in daylight to complete the find.

Found at 1330Hrs. Not much parking around here on week days. Interesting spot. Hope I wasn't spotted from the units on the other side of the railway line, but didn't see anyone so hopefully all is well.
The top of the cache has gone missing now so some TLC would be in order. Sorry but I didn't have the necessary with me.
Thanks wingaap

Was a bit dubious about the "hole", but braved it to find this one.

Found on a trip with geo dad to Wesley Hospital. There is a toy gun in the area of the cache but I don't think it will fit in the cache. Nice hide. Cache container is cracked but still dry. TFTC TNLN

Found on a trip to the hospital in the big smoke. TFTC TNLN Nice hide.

Definitely a devious find, found it stumbling in the dark and avoiding a few drunken revellers.

Found at 16:30 after waiting for a rather cute muggle to stop photographing the cenotaph. Almost gave up on this one after spending a couple of minutes up to my shoulder in the hiding place - kicked myself when I finally found the spot.

Some local kids had hidden a loaded and functional laser pistol in the space below the cache spot. I ensured the weapon was in safe working order by firing a few test bursts before re-stowing it.

Further to previous logs, the logbook is now completely full, the snaplock bags are split and torn, and the cache note was rather damp. Left some extra paper with the logbook.

TN, SL, TFTC

hope you have long arms and nerves of steel TFTC

Found it OK. Container split and needs replacing. Log Book damp and has very little space left for loging visit. TFTC. Tavurvur

As the previous finder, thought I had better check this one... Cache is still there!!, I wouldn't describe this hide as obvious.. More like devious!!

We tried this one on Wednesday. No muggles around so three of us had a good poke around (as per log below). We couldn't find any trace of it.

[Didn't find it today (Monday). A friend who had found it earlier tried a couple of days later and didn't find it either. It wasn't in the obvious place ](on the ledge in and up; thoroughly rummaged!) [nor was it elsewhere around ](amongst the detritus below). [Please check!]

Found this one easily today as was a little exposed, so I hid correctly to make sure the next finder won't find it so easily .

Log book dry, and still a few blank pages within.

thanks wingaap for a clever hide.

Found it No. 1068 ... needs a new log book ... TNLN

Found at 011235KFEB09
The second for the day on the run home from a big night out (for a couple of old codgers [|)]) attending the last night of the Chinese New Year celebrations in Brisvegas.
What a hide, it looks if it was just asking for a cache, was a bit chicken about the retrieve but after Geo Mummy flatly refused to put her hand anywhere near it, I had to, I wasn’t going to waste the walk.

Discovering Australia one hide at a time…

Went to do this one today and realised it had been done previously.. Then there was a resident...

Another great memorial park. A bit annoying was the beer bottle tops that were obviously thrown at the memorial. Time for some people to grow up.

Anyway, found the cache. Great hiding place. Container is cracked and needs replacing.

Took a walk during my lunch break and found this one rather quickly.
The case is cracked, but still in good condition.

I dont know how you found that spot, but its a good place for a cache.
TFTC

Mmm, had to think twice before heading in for this one.... Eeech.... Couldn't see anything and even with a couple of MacGyver tools on hand, still couldn't locate the cache without actually going in for the kill..... Fortunately, the grab was easier than I expected and there was no need to tap dance or run around flapping my arms, Ace Ventura style.

Nice hide. Wonder how you found the spot in the first place.... [?]

Cheers

Accompanied by Gunnie69.

07:15 Located eventually Sneaky hide also found a source of honey nearby in the form of a native bee hive.
TFTC

What a beautiful view to sit down and relax!
TFTC

First one, woot!

looking around it could only be in one place, but still checked the GPS there is was TNLN TFTC SL

When I think of the hundreds of times I've gone past this park in the train, I'm ashamed that I've never visited the park. Great view, and admired the memorial to the Fallen in 1914-18.
Had to get the glasses out to see the log and sign it. TFTC.

Sneakily hidden. Mrs W.E.K.A. wasn't prepared to reach in for this one! TFTC

Found this one at 11:05 while in town for a seminar just nearby. Boy, what a creepy retrieve but some pretty great views from around GZ on such a hot morning made it all worthwhile .

TNLNSL, although a couple of our geocoins had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks wingaap.

We found it thanks

Accompanied with Patox for the day. Excellent hide spot. SL. Thanks wingaap for organising the cache and hunt.

Easy find.

TFTC

Found at 1600 today. Took awhile. Followed the clue and could not find it so I decided to go the other way and found it buried very well thankyou. It is now in a position which fits the clue " in and Up". I think I have replaced it in its original place as the position seems most likely. TNLN TFTC.

Found at 10.21am. As I was approaching GZ this one was in full sight. Signed log and tucked it away. Lovely spot and great views. TFTC

this was a great cache,

Thanks

Sometimes you just have to close your eyes and hope for the best! Gottcha! Thanks for this cache.

Regards,

Pseudo-Geek.

First for the day found at 0811. Clever hide, cache dry and well.

I just loved this location and the hiding place was terrific too. Thanks very much for this one, it was a pleasure to find.

Yup, time running out, its in a hole for sure, thanks.
