Archived. Area is now available for local cachers to place. Cheers THENANKS

Thanks to Pocketrocket&friends for letting us know about the trees being cleared. I now do a monthly drive to Beaudesert for work so I will replace asap.

pocketrocket&friends arrived at the location ready to give some family members the experience of caching.
Unfortunately, the retrieval was unsuccessful- searched for quite some time before pondering if the cache was in the trees that had been chopped down recently.
Perhaps a check is needed to make sure!
Thanks

After visiting our new puppy in a near by suburb the mission was to locate 6 caches in the area so as we could snare the 1000th today.It is fitting that this cache be one placed by THE NANKS as they introduced us to this pasttime.A great little park for cache number 999 TFTC.

Found by Sunshine Toledo at 2:30pm. I parked near the SD and went in from there for quite an easy find. In: rose flower Out: prawn TFTC

Gps want a bit haywire on this one. Found it in the end

This was Team Barnes' second attempt to find this cache as our first venture was spoilt by MUGGLE. Taking first timers with us today it was a great way to start the day. Nice easy find. Great Hide. Black bag does need replacing.....



TOOK Flower
LEFT Lobster

Geo mum led the way, but was overshadowed by geoterd....again.
Easy find, took bubbles, left dino keyring.

This was a quick find. The cache is dry, but the plastic bag is badly deteriorated and needs replacing. Sorry, I didn't one with me. TN/LN/SL.

Easy find and nice area. Took karibiner, Earrings and T's Coin. Left Golf Ball, and a couple of toys SLTFTC

aaaargh!dib,dib,dib,got this one in a jif!thanks nanks!

Found with geonephews this afternoon, out on their first cache hunt. None of them our scouts, even though they live in this area, so it was exciting for them to see where the scout hall is. Great little stroll for the bush, not too long, not too short for them. The youngest nephew (5) asked what we would do if we got lost. Given we could still see the car from ground zero, we decided we'd be okay, maybe camp out for the night and find our way back at first light. Left T's geocoin, took nothing. Thanks TheNanks!

Stopped off to grab this one on our way home. Nice little patch of bush here. The cache was an easy find, and is in good condition.

We left a superball and took some stickers. We also grabbed the TB.

An interesting path leading to the cache. TNLN. Thanks THENANKS

Great cache that i have been meaning to get to for ages...I have spent many evenings here as a scout parent, and as a district leader.. All of my kids went through scouts in the area. and this den is often used as a meeting place when several groups need to get together..

Took a snake, and left a key ring..

Dropped "BSA(Boy Scouts of America) troop 87 team challange" TB

A quick and easy find on my tour of Jimboomba today
Another surprising bit of bushland tucked away amongst the sprawl of the acerages
A good little hiding spot. The cache guardian was on duty and I made sure it is waiting for the next finder

This was our 18th of 27 finds for the day.

We were getting a bit tired with a busy day of caching nearly behind us so it didn't phase us to drive in the out entrance and out the in entrance - no one else was here after all and putting the car into reverse is just oh so hard.

I imagine the scouts would love it here... the surrounding bushland is so nice and spacious & they obviously use it for their games as we saw several markers in the bush & even a mug hanging up in a tree.

At GZ we found the cache easily at 3:44pm and took a balloon in exchange for some stickers.

NICE EASY FIND CACHE WAS OUT IN THE OPEN RECOVERED IT.ALL IS WELL NOW T/N/L/N/S/L.THANKS FOR THE CACHE THENANKS
REGARDS ANGEL DUST

The muggle scouts nearby didn't pay us much attention even after one of our attack dogs charged them. Bolter was only trying to be friendly and was very upset when they didn't want to play with him. TNLN. Cache was not covered very well so we tried to improve it.

This is our 50th GC find. Thanks for the additional caches out this way. Took notepad and left sharpener.

Nice quick easy find. TFTC TNLN

A quick find. Didn't come the easy way so had to walk through the bush. TNLN.

#4 for the day. A quick and easy find. We swapped a little notebook for a bee keyring.

Thanks for the cache.

An interesting little walk in remnant bush...nice to see local involvement in these kinds of projects. TNLNSL

Thanks for the cache

I know that you NANKS set these up for those in the rural areas but just couldn't resist the chance to get FTF as all those in our area are done by either yourselves or that Dastardly Pirate. Well like they say on the Forum "You Snooze you Lose" we missed this one as well and picked another 2nd to find. Thanks for a good hide and a nice bit of country air .TNLN

Zoinks!!! A FTF for Mystery Ink. Our second for the day found at 8.50 am. This was Mrs Inks first solo effort . I was lucky enough to not be working today so I ventured out after Mr Ink and Mini inks had gone to work and school. The co-ordinates were spot on and it was a nice easy find. Thanks to THE NANKS for placing these caches out here.

p.s - pencil was broken and I didn't have a sharpener on me so I used my own pen
