Description
Hidden for Christmas in July 2017
Cache is not at the posted co ordinates. Hidden in bush land close to Nanango. Be careful where you walk as the grass may be long at times and in warmer weather be wary of snakes. Remember geocachingtoolbox is your friend.
The puzzle may take some thinking about if you have not done many puzzles before and if you have this one should not tax you that much. Your fingers will assist in deciphering this one. This is a narrow country road so please drive safe and watch for traffic.

#GA3495 - 10:13; Day 2 of the South East Queensland tour with Sol de lune. Made it to Nanango late yesterday after getting belted by a storm later in the afternoon/early evening. Much to our relief the heavy rain seems to be moving on and it is only overcast and occasional light drizzle this morning. Spending today caching around Nanango and Kingaroy and hoping to clear a swag of GCA puzzles from the 'solved but unfound' list we have been compiling for the past couple of years. We were now underway and enjoying a variety of cache types and hides, some taking longer than other to make the find amongst the long grasses and having to make the right choice from the variety of possibilities available. Also enjoyed solving the puzzles, even though there was plenty of head scratching and later on forehead slapping along the way! Actually found this one by accident after expanding the seacrh area while looking in the area across the road for another where we seem to have the wrong coords. TFTC tadpole3

2nd day of a 5 day trip around south-east Queensland with LuckyL10n and today we were in Nanango to grab a few more of the local offerings. All up my 3rd trip to this area, but there are few cachers to grab. We encountered wild weather in Brisbane yesterday, however today started with very little rain and no wind...thankfully.
Another puzzle that worked out ok. Amazing how sometimes what seems harder is not, while the easier ones are. That certainly happened a couple times with the ones here. As for the find, we pulled up close to GZ and once we started the search it wasn't long and the cache was in hand. Log was signed, cache replaced and we then off to the next one.
Thanks for the cache Tadpole3. Cache all good.

Another day and another GCA cache to find. This one likes most of the hides by this CO are not far out of town and they are all in the same area approximately. If they were all published on the same day you could spend a couple of hours out i this direction and get the lot. Parked safe off road as the road is narrow and used by the locals. You can follow this road around in a very big loop and attempt over thirty caches both GCA ands GC. TFTC tadpole3.
