unable to maintain

put on hold till maintenance can be done

DNF also - and looking at loogs it needs archiving or replacing. TFTC Felix!

Put us on the DNF list for this cache. No Luck today

Not found in six months & several DNFs. It looks very much like this cache is gone. Owner action would be appreciated.

Tried again on a Sunday with geohubby and still no luck - aagh!!

Looked everywhere, nowhere to be found!

Martam and I looked for over 1/2 hr with no luck. could it have been muggled? Maybe worth checking.

Tried again with no sucess. is this one still there? Mummy5019

looked going to look agian!

Second did not find of the day. Will try again later. Must have lost the knack!

Only had time for a quick look today bit did find what looked to be a spot where cache used to be but then heaps of people started turning up so I left GZ TFT adventure

Bad start for the day unable to locate this one first up, will have to try again another time.

got it on the 3rd try....no trackables in there however...missing in action

No muggles around which meant a nice quick find then on to the next one. TFTC

Gotcha !! TFTC

Found on 2nd attempt. Good hide.

found it. no sign of GC though

DNF for me + warrigalgbank but will be back for another search another day

took me a while to find this it was covered pretty deep i put it back so at least you can find it!!! took tb left oregon agates

Was pressed for time and unfortunately didn't find will be back

Found this cache after a little bit of poking around. Interesting location and clue. TFTC

Found at 0839 with Marg. Took a bit to find while wait for muggle to drive by. Cache OK and dry. TFTC.

Muggles galore, must have been a literay session at the library and swimming classes all at once. But persisted. Quizzed a couple of times if I had seen a snake, said no just searching for lizards. Waited for quiet time before retrieving the cache and signing the log.

Nicely done. TFTC

had to search as there were several options. we searched the first one and had no luck..but on the second it was revealed.

Oops. Forgot to log after last Maroochy visit.
Found with SeaOps0 visiting from Canada.
Nice park in nice area of the Hinterland.

Found with Denis, TN left TB, TFTH

[3rd and final find for the day. GPS had a bit of trouble settling down, probably due to major tree cover.] Found plastic bag under lots of leaf cover. [An unusual place to hide. Very good. TFTC]

Not too busy on a Saturday afternoon. Good cache.

Awesome!! TFTC!! Cheers!

Great hint

yippee! found it.
The BlackBerry compass didn't like the tree cover so relied on the hint.
Using a stick uncovered the black bag. Cache is stuffed with trinkets and toys, difficult to shut.
Lovely area for a library, not even geo Dad who lives nearby knew this was here.

Running a bit late with recording this one. was up getting the car serviced so decided to grab a couple of caches. TFTC TNLN SL

Thanks to geoNana we had a childfree weekend to spend in Noosa. This is a lovely setting for a library. There was no one about this morning so we had no trouble retrieving the cache. Thanks cooroy scouts.

ditch the plastic bag.
it not only makes the cache wetter than it would be without it but it makes a stealthy retrieval quite difficult. and not to mention all the bugs and stuff that crawl inside it.
found after a little bit of considered wandering as the muggle traffic thinned enough so i could make my way to GZ un-noticed.

A quick find after I paid better attention to the GPS. Cache was dry inside but the lid isn't sealing properly. Took geocoin. TFTC cooroy scouts.

Found for my thrid for the day (actually staying just down the road this week).

Well located cache (took a couple of goes to find it - GPS was a bit off at first)

Signed log @ swapped out the maracca (taken by oldest daughter - her first cache find) & left a small car.

Quite a large portion of the bag was visible when we found so have covered a bit more thoroughly so it doesn't get mistaken for rubbish)

Thanks for the hide to the Cooroy Scouts

easy find, took buterfly geocoin TFTC

Found at 14:10 with geofriend from Brisbane after having to ignore co-ords and follow clue. Took nothing but left HomeRun geocoin picked up in Victoria. TFTC

Found it after a bit of a search around with lisa_downunder.
GPs was jumping about a bit which made it hard.
Could not sign log book as its completely soaked through, sealed as best i could, but will need a new log book.
Took nothing but left the Roses Geocoin to continue its journey

I apologise it wasn't this cache that needed maintenance, got mixed up, still left the geocoin though in this cache, but log book good...sorry

Found with crushernz

Had two goes at this one today, and ended up having to log a DNF. We had a good search around in the three places the GPS pointed to (it was a bit jumpy and vague), and didn't manage to turn anything up.

We'll look next time we're up here, probably early next year.

TFTC cooroy scouts - probably see you at the event cache on the weekend.

Glad we had the clue as the GPS kept wandering underneath the trees. Nice cache. Took lucky coins left keyring. TFTC

The GPS was sending me all over the place and the clue didn't help.

I gave up and enlisted help from Ros and it still took us 20 minutes to find on our second attempt. TNLN.

The signal strength was really low on this one and it was pointing me all over the place.

Quick Find #4 for us today.
TNLNSL.
Not too many nuggles today. Cahe log a bit wet but able to sign.
TFTC.

Cache is soaked through.

Very soggy cache here.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Found after a bit of a search. Needed some stealth for this one. TNLN TFTC

My GPS was giving me all sorts of trouble finding this one, the satellites all disappeared on me and when they finally came back all the locations I was lead to (there was a bit of tree cover) were cacheless.

No problems finding this one at 1300. Afterwards sat on other side of road on grass verge and enjoyed lunch in the sunshine.

Found it ... took nothing and left Chinese Coins

Recognized hint but didn't know where it was supposed to direct me. Two very large spiders gave me the rest.

found ok had to wait till muggles departed quickly sign log and replaced TNLN, thanks

Found at 0900hrs. You're not kidding when you say it's a high traffic area! Exracted the cache and went back to the car to do the paperwork and move it forward to park opposite. Quickly replaced and covered!

Went looking for this one on a quiet Sunday afternoon, brother and nieces in tow. All of us wearing just sandals/thongs, so we didn't delve deeply into the scrub. After about 20 minutes, we called it a day and went home (200m away).

Brother suggests it might have been washed away or discovered by council staff cleaning up after the floods. As this was my first serious use of a GPS unit, I'm putting it down to lack of experience, lack of time and inappropriate footwear.

Pinpointed the cache location but had to wait for a man at the bus stop to move on before reteiving the cache. Took: Loup Loup TB and keyring, Left: waterpistol TFTC

found

Found Ok

Didn't find it @ approx. 15:00

After much head scratching, decided that I would move on and make better use of my time.

Entirely Muggle Free Early On A Sunday Morning. Cache Found Easily After Referring To Clue. Took Nothing. Left Loup Loup TB. SL. TFTC.

This looks like it should be crawling with muggles, all that parking and the buildings and all – but it was surprisingly peaceful here today. Maybe they were all out watching the rally that closed off large chunks of Tewantin and barred access to quite a few caches, too, thank you very much! Tracked the cache to within 3 metres, then it was a matter of shifting loads of leaf matter from around the flora until the cache revealed itself. I definitely needed a poking stick for this, and still managed to get stabbed. Ah well, no blood, so no worries. TFTC! =’.’=

Found with La Kedi. An interesting place and lucky for us almost no muggles. TFTC

Spent at least 30mins looking for this one, looking at the clue and scratching our heads and the muggles were nonstop. Decided to come back on a weekend when hopefully there will be no muggles around.
Thanks for the adventure Cooroy Scouts

Yep...found no problem.Hadn't been in this area before!

#43 of 45 finds on the Sunshine Coast in company with The Garner Family and HawMorFords. We found this one at 2220. The cache itself was nice and dry inside, but it is unfortunately wrapped in a black garbage bag, which made the whole thing a soggy mess to extract. Really, these garbage bags are not necessary. They don't provide any real extra protection, and the condensation/rain just makes the experience 'less than enjoyable'. There! I feel better now! I made no exchange. Thanks to cooroy scouts for the cache. Cheers, dak.

My thirty-fourth find of a weekend's caching on the Sunshine Coast in the company of The Garner Family (Mr) and dak's Emu Mob.

I had a different idea to dEM & TGF on where this one was but my idea proved to be incorrect. I then joined the search in a much more logical location and turned up the cache soon after. Thanks to cooroy scouts for the cache. #1857

Find #42 of 44 for the day in the company of dak's Emu Mob and HawMorFords - found at 22:25.

Given the hint we knew where we should be looking & the co-ordinates seemed to match that but we couldn't find the cache for some time! It was only when HMF came to search in this same area that the cache location was revealed as HMF found it in a matter of seconds in a spot that dak and I had already looked! TFTC.

GPS kept pointing me to a particular tree, with few hiding spots, and I assumed it was a micro. Went back to the car and read the description. Tried again but with no luck. The clue seems odd, given that the speed limit sign was a good 20m from where the GPS was pointing.

We had to poke around with a stick for a while before we located this cache. The task was made even more difficult by the number of Muggles in the area. However we eventually found the cache without anyone noticing.

Our first find in the area over Easter. Just forgot to log it till now!

1410hrs. An easy find once the 2 cars drag racing through the area were gone.

7th of 25 finds for the day at 9.45am. We spent the day looking for all those caches which have sprung up like mushrooms in the area. It was relatively quiet today so it was an easy find. TFTC

Crikey! That was a big ask
The clue helped narrow down the search. The poking stick helped find the cache
But how on earth does a cacher stop the conveyer belt of muggles here [:o]
With no way to hide while searching I suggest a flourescent orange or yellow vest and a clip board would be of enourmous help here
Unless of course you do this one at midnight. Should be no problems then
TFTC and the challenge [^]

Found this one quite easily with the help of the clue. Lot's of cars today, but we didn't seem to attract any muggle attention so no real difficulty there.
Lot's of big ants too! TNLNSL. Thanks for the cache.

Found by caughtatwork at 12:37
This cache could have been quite tricky and rather than add any damage to the garden bed, we cracked the clue, which helped us narrow down the area.
A relatively easy find with the clue in hand.
Took nothing, left ball and frog.
Thank cooroy scouts, this is a very tranquil area on a Tuesday afternoon.

Took a little bit of searching but as it was Sunday arvo there wasn't a soul in sight which made things easier, the cache was guarded by a family of ants. TFTH TNLNSL

Watched my speed as I hit the hump then found a car park it was safer that way. Easy Find

Took Lizard

Left Earings

Went for a drive to get out of the heat this afternoon and decided to make a detour and get this cache. Nice easy find. Took wombat keyring, left ball maze game. TFTC

This one proved trickier than it should have been but we got it in the end
Found in the company of The Nanks and Liz and Bruce

Sunday of the big caching weekend with David from THENANKS and powellbruce. Found in the fading light. Nice spot. Thanks cooroy scouts

A good way to start the day with a FTF. Easy to find and no muggles.
