I went to this one first today. It was nice and cool wandering around the tracks and no sign of any snakes. I arrived at GZ and there was the unmistakeable pile of sticks near the burnt out tree but no amo tin. It had gone. As I was walking away, I spotted a large snaplock bag on the ground and picked it up. There was the log book in pieces, lots of single pages dating back to 2011 and the geocaching notes and some pictures that children had drawn when visiting the cache with their parents. I found a few single pages on the ground also which I grabbed as well. All the trinkets had gone but it was good to get the memories back. I was just reaching out to pick up a piece of plastic when out of the corner of my eye I saw something move. There was a dragon lizard on the log next to my arm. I assured him I would not touch him and moved away.
I have contacted the CO and will give in the bag of log book entries and geocaching notes. I have permission to log my find.

Found cache in plain sight about 40m before GZ empty but for a handful of crayons strewn on the ground nearby.
Once again another cache not hidden properly so making an easy find. Rehid it and we ware gone to next. Tftc
Could not find this geocache, all trees looked black and no plastic zip lock bag, but plenty of mistaken rubbish.
Found package way off from where discription said (think it was moved) and I moved it back to where I thought it should be acording to discription. It now doesnt have a container its just in a plastic ziplock bag
#7833. We'd been walking for most of the day and were getting slower on uphill sections (the shade was appreciated however). Good views of some nearby sports fields. TFTC.
Our first visit to the area and looks like there are lots of tracks to explore but we were getting a little weary so just kept to one area. Quick find as the container colour was a dead give away. Hopefully have hidden it a little better.
Not sure where the logbook was, there were so many bits of paper in the plastic bag. In the end, found a piece of paper with a log from 2013, so signed beside that one. TFTC.

The cache was not very well hidden . We saw it as soon as we turned to our left but it was still fun to find
TFTC -thanks for the cache

7/7/14 a sidetrack from our park catchup. Quick find. Amazing how long this one has been going. TFTC
Walked straight past on our way to another. Disregarded it as it was so obvious. But still got it on the way back.
Kids had a great time in the playground this morning with their friends from mother's group. After everyone left we went for a walk to grab two of the nearer caches. This was our first. Thanks for the cache. Left some paper for drawing on. TFTC...
Yay! Found it. Think this one took me longer than it should have. Was wandering in circles for about 10 minutes looking for the big tree haha
TFTC - found with Gordon crew 3. Agree with comments left by Gordon crew 3
Found with geocache a lot 2014
Cache was a bit exposed - colour doesn't help. Very obvious.
Has obviously got a bit wet at one time. Needs new log book. No paper left to draw pictures, so paper left for next finder. May be a CO check needed.

TFTC. Container a little exposed. Tried to cover it up as best as I could so it wouldn't be muggled.
There didn't seem to be any log pages left and after a bit of rain it was mozzie central leaving the kids a bit disappointed that they couldn't leave a drawing.
Anyway cache is in good condition and reasonably dry after a full day of rain.
Thanks for the cache!

Found the cache uncovered and probably juggled. Covered it up again. Might have to being my nephews to find this one. Tftc
Nice cache. Easy to find. Didn't see the traceable in the cache. Although didn't look too hard.
Cool that the new playground has just opened nearby.

Only a small amount of bush bashing required. Found the path just after the cache.
Came in from the wrong angle so had to do a bit of bush bashing but the co-ords and hint are accurate so it was an easy find. Tftc.
Whites Hill was the target for today. Parked next to the soccer fields and set off on the bikes.
Coordinates for this cache were good and when combined with the hint made for a quick find. No Geocoin though ??

Found this one while sitting on a log giving Geodog some water. 2nd for the day. New to the game so very proud.
Yay second cache ever. Thanks had an awesome time finding this one. Steve n Tahl
Last one on the stroll through the reserve today. Heading back to the car and this one was kind of on the way so it was just a little sidetrack to grab it. A fairly quick and easy find while Ms Maddy was taking some nearby TB photos.

Caching on a late Saturday afternoon... It was already so dark, so Mr. Dhobitock took a while finding the cache in the woods...
Came this way this afternoon for work and needed a quick 'cache for the day'. It is days like this that I love a quick park and grab. Whites Hill is looking particularly dry at the moment, but the hide and cache are in good condition. I left the cache better hidden than when I arrived, as it was quite exposed upon arrival. Thanks for the hide!

Had parked the car nearby while attacking a number of other caches in the area. So grabbed this one prior to leaving. Cache found without a problem. Tftc
Took the childerbeasts out for a hunt to use up some energy. Found it after looking in the wrong places for about 10 or 15mins.
I've wanted to visit this reserve for a while now, as there's a few interesting caches here, and it's a good walk, which I really needed today. On my way around I saw several different birds, a blue tongue lizard, a wallaby and several bush turkeys. I came down the hill mostly bush basing to this one, but at GZ my phone played up Took a bit of searching before I spotted what was really odd. As others have said, the logbook has fallen apart, but I signed on a loose page. TFTC, The Garner Family.
Didn't see geocoin in there. Log book was a bunch of papers that was once a notepad, could see that some other people had been there in August before us. Why don't people log on geocaching.com? Tftc
Awesome location
Loved reading the stories on the big old log. A favourite place of mine for years!
TYFC!
Swapped a ninja & pink thong keying for some Russian doll beads, heart glass pendant & a few other treasures.
CO: held up well in the rain. Needs new log book & paper. Snap lock bags too. I've re wrapped everything in plastic bags for now. Thanks so much.

Gps had us wandering around in circles for a while. I finally noticed an unusual colour in the leaf litter and quickly had the catch in hand.
first find of the day on a scout Geocaching outing in Whites Hill. Nice easy find to start off the day.

Out for a caching day today. We had just finished the gecko trail and were looking for a nice medium container to drop off a geocoin. This one popped up close by. It was perfect. Little geokid was excited about some toys so we made some swaps. TFTC. Nice one
Found with geo hound Kipande while muggle Jane was working in the area. Log book a bit tatty could do with new one. Nice area.
I can't recall visiting here before so it was great to look around. There were soccer games in progress so I could wander through into the bush without drawing much attention. I walked past the GZ, aiming for another big tree but we got there in the end. Cache in fine condition, still with good swaps. TFTC Garners.
Found after my tiring bike ride around camp hill. Phone near flat, so will spend the last of the day doing ones close to car access. Perfect day day for caching, started early and going to get a fair few in
TFTC. Needs new log book

nice walk through the reserve. The cache needs a bit more paper - we couldn't do a masterpiece. maybe another time TFTC [^]
1st find of a quick early morning cache before Geokid played cricket at the nearby fields
After a long day in the office and a trip to the physio I really needed a walk. I stopped here bc it was sort of on my way home (by geocacher standards).
Found the cache easily but TB is gone.

Thank you for the nice bush walk. I came from NZ with a couple of travel bugs that wanted to see Australia. I watched my daughter score her first try in the Aussie state champs and I went for a short walk to find this one. My first time here and in Brisbane. Thank you for a great day!
Having a little outing on a beautiful Sunday. This was a nice and easy stroll away, and the container was visible already before arriving at the GZ. How topical to have a lunchbox as the container.
