22/10/16, 6:37 am Find #1385

I saw this on my map and decided to have a quick look but I wasn't hopeful given that it hadn't been found since being archived 3.5 years ago.

So I was surprised to see the stump right at GZ and the cache inside. It was in almost perfect condition complete with a range of swaps and the log book was still open to the page of the last finder dated 23/3/2013.

Thanks for this archived cache eventful

As there has been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it has been a number of months since the last owner note I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Found [Time to Find: 10 min] I should have read the description before tackling this one, but I didn't and approached it from behind the remote control park. Just as neared the cache after a gruelling uphill climb I crossed an easy walking path from the Jinker track. Found the cache and decided to take a break and watch the nitro cars and catch my breath. Nice hide. cache is in good order I don't know why it is unavalible.

Disenabled for maintenance.

I had left my wife in the cool of the nearby club while I hit the local caches.

A short stroll and I must have taken the wrong path as I had to do a bit of bush bashing to get to the cache.

It was an easy find once I arrived and then an easier stroll back up the hill on the nearby path.

I took the Dubllon Geocoin. TFTC

Brilliant sunny morning and a peaceful area close to the sporting fields and bike tracks but not too close! We are really enjoying exploring this area. Great cache site and nice cache container too! TFTC and we left behind a traveller to continue the journey.

Out caching around Albany Creek and surrounds again today in the foul weather from ex-cyclone Oswald. Found my way to the cache in the pouring rain and howling wind. Quick find. On the way back to the track through the bush, a loud crack preceded a large dead tree branch falling from a tree. It landed about 20 feet away from me and scared the be-jesus out of me.

A big shot of adrenalin and I was out of there. Went home to change my jocks after that little fright.
TFTC eventful. It certainly was eventful today.

Found with Matt_Eth . Thank you .

You do have to watch out for those bikes because they move at a heck of a pace.
Moved over and 4 came hurtling down the track.
On to the cache.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks eventful All good with the cache.

TFTC! Great spot out here today.

I could not get the included pen to work - I tried all kinds of shaking, etc, but it wouldn't work. Needs replacing. I would have replaced it if I had my spares. I will replace if I go up again soon.

(I wasn't sure if this required a "Needs Maintenance" entry as I'm still pretty new to this - hope this is the right thing to do!)

Very easy to find. I took a bit of a detour from my normal mountain bike ride to find this one. No other riders about, so I quickly found it.

The pen in the cache was not working, and I didn't have any spares, so I was unable to sign the cache. I will do a separate "needs maintenance" log for this (is that the normal thing to do?)

Good hide. Take your mozzie spray. Log very damp but in good condition.

what would an" eventful" 5 star terrain be like???[B)]fun cache sl.tnln. TFTC.

Out and about on a rainy day and knocking off some Jinker Track caches. Got my wires crossed and approached from nearby sport grounds, following a road before realising it's up there! Straight up I went, over the bike trail, higher still before finding the beastie. As previous logs have noted, a bit smelly, damp but usable. Slipped and slid back down and off to the next. tftc eventful

A nice easy find for my cache-for-today [^] especially on such a hot afternoon, except I forgot a pen and the only one in the container was unusable Back to the car I went for just that little bit more exercise >.< Contents are a little damp and smelly, but log is still signable. TFTC, eventful.

Found on this gorgeous show day holiday with the help of geoson, and helper geogals. They loved it until we went off the track into the prickly trees

Thanks for the cache.

Good quick find on another sunny Brisbane day. SL TFTC

A little bit of bush bashing! But found it! Pen doesn't work so make sure you bring your own!

After an Epic days mountain biking (hmmm, ok maybe not so epic, seeing as I pushed my bike more than I rode it. But in my defence it was my first time.), I made it here to this cache. Pulling up to near GZ I jumped off my deadly treadly (no really those things are deadly if put into the wrong hands, mine to be precise!) and jumped into the bush. A quick search of the GZ and I came up smiling

TFTC eventful

Found it! Bit wet tho...

A bit cloudy but the gps finally kicked in and found it after a few bikers went past

Found this one with Lamort back in May. Forgot to log it. Mountain bikers everywhere.

Nice quick find after dodging bike riders, TFTC.

MTB riding in Bunya Forest. Good quiet location off service track...almost got me stumped but found it eventually.
TFTC

Picked up 'Laura's Rat'.

Found, signed left 'Laura's Rat' TB

Good easy find at the end of a wet day.

Easy find, picked up tracking device

found a different way in

grass was very wet

shoes are soaked and not even the fun of puddles

left Canadian Beaver travel patch

took little red crab
left green ribbon

Nice little hike in. TFTH

Great little walk

TFTC

Found it with pgriff, it was raining that night too.

TFTC

found this at night, pretty nice night walk. TFTH

We had gone up the GT break trail so had missed this one on our first circuit around the park. So after we got back we went down the Bowers Break tracjk to retrieve the cache.

It was almost lunch time so most of the serious bikers must have finsihed their stuff.

TFTC eventful

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.

In the company of Captain Terror and Fangoski, we made our way through the empty area to GZ.

The cache was found quickly and names added to the log

TFTC eventful

Gaz'n'Kab

Myself, Fangsoki and Gaz'n'Kab headed down to grab this one today. Although it was Saturday the general area was a ghost town, so no complaints from us. Lovely walk through the bush and soon arrived near GZ. The Gaz was sent it to retrieve the cache, logbook was signed and again off to the next smiley for the day. TFTC.

No one around today lovely day for Geocaching.
TFTC TNLN

Was in the area, so I visited. All is good with the cache and the world. Cheers

Found on a sunny Sunday geocaching day with sniffme, maxxdog and Daz. TFTC!
Left a blue bouncy ball acquired from Scotty Cam at the home show.

Find #77. Found 23/10/11 @1435.

Not exactly sure what was going on at the nearby sporting fields, but it sure was noisy! Either something really important was happening or someone really likes the sound of their own voice! After the iPhone took us on a wild goose chase, finally had cache in hand.

TNLN/SL

TFTC eventful!

Krewlworld , Maxxdog , me and call me daz found this before lunch..........any one wanting to go to the sports club for lunch please remember not to where singlets as we couldn't get in cause of it and went to Sanford valley tavern for a great lunch but like like last time caching out the we won 2 meat trays. Thanks for the cache. Bye the way if you here loud vices it's the remote car club. TFTC

I came through here years ago on my MTB.

The old log book has gone an ugly brown/black/green colour and smells really bad from the mould. It is in a zip lock bag but I did not put it back in the cache. Just underneath it.

A nice walk in the woods to find this one

Daniel-son took geo-son and I out to find this one (one of his first finds) - I was the first, to find this one today though ). Daniel-son's phone took him off in one direction and mine took me in another. Due to the nature of the GZ (bush land) and everything looking so similar (tree's and foliage everywhere) I think Daniel-son forgot where he had seen it. So glad my phone was pointing straight at the location. I signalled for the boys, pulled out the cache and signed the non-destroyed log. Inside was a little damp but the new log was fine. Placed the cache back and trekked back through the foliage. I will remember this cache as I received quite a few scratches and a bit of a rash from the plants. Thanks eventful

Nice easy find while in the area. Certainly agree about the skanky log. Thanks to whoever replaced it =] TNLNSL TFTC

4/09/11 Find #633

Noticed this one on our way to another cache with Nyletam and decided
to pick it up on our way back. This was a nice quick and easy find
TFTC

Quick easy find although there was a definate 'gross' factor with that very decomposed log book making the cache quite aromatic. TFTC

The first of a few today in the Brisbane drizzle.

TFTC

Quick find once we reached GZ. Cache is in reasonable condition but the old smelly log book should really be removed as it is not readable and is holding moisture. I did not feel it was my right to remove it but if someone does then I am sure it would help the rest of the contents. TFTC.

See find log. Needs some TLC

Bit of an unexpected climb to GZ but easy find. Cache could use some TLC. The old log book is still in the cache and it is putrid.

1st find on a fruitful day of searching for us. Parked just near the beginning of the trail and headed off. Nice leisurely stroll in the bush and a quick search of the area netted us the cache. Nothing happening on on the fields today. TFTC.

Finally got a find tonight! Set out on a night raid with EngPhil tonight to collect clues for another cache and to grab a few quick ones along the way. Sadly, the quick ones we chose to try were all DNFs, but happily we managed to get to this one. Not sure about the terrain rating, as I'm not too steady on my feet at the moment I sent EngPhil in to do the hard work. TFTC

Find #494 at 22:32.

After a spectacularly unsuccessful night raid, Palopinto and I wanted to head home with at least one smiley. This one seemed like a good candidate. After heading down the wrong trail in the dark (a mistake we quickly corrected) GZ was soon located and the cache was in hand. The log's a bit wet, as previous finders have noted. Had to resort to my Sharpie to sign it. Very happy to see this kind of container instead of the all-too-common Sistema (aka Failcache) in a spot like this. I'd have called this a Regular T2 rather than a small T1.5, myself. Content with our smiley, we headed back home. TFTC, eventful! [^]

Yeah, found! kids loved it, tricky, pen not working and we had no pencil... Thank you

#03 - Found with much frustration from sketchy GPS, but found nonetheless. Log book damp but still writeable, placed promotional phone strap in as gift.

A little bonus on the way to somewhere else . Found with Gunnie69, kaisho53 & Ghostgums.

Thanks for the cache eventful! Cheers, svn07

We nabbed this one after a wrong turn on the tracks tracking down a nearby puzzle cache. The neraby noise had us a little intrigued of it was go-karts or rc cars.

Anyhow a nice wander through a great bit of bushland.

TFTC

Another traditional that was just too close to our planned route for todays Puzzle raid to go unattempted...

In company of Gunnie69, SVN07, Ghostgums, Ruzzels & JAT we decended onto GZ to claim a smiley...

TNLNSL

Thanks eventful for the cache...

Good cache .
Logbook slightly moist , BYO pen.

From the nearby Catwezel, it was a short walk down to this one. Somebody should really do something about the leaky plumbing in the sky today

Found at 1150. Cache is safe and dry, and I tried my best to keep it that way!

Thanks for the cache, eventful

Finally got it but took us a long time! Drove through the sports club and parked as close as we coud to the back trees (this is next to the playing field) then we followed the track down but the track didn't lead us where we wanted to go. So we cut through the (higher than waist height) grass and through prickly trees and holes in the ground and we finally found the bike/walking track. So then the gps was telling us it was just a little bit further so off we went, higher into the scrub! had looked around for a couple of minutes but couldn't see a tree stump. Then finally geodad saw the stump and ran up to it and the other lyons followed.. then we signed the log and showed our first timer friend who looked very interested! I love the container! For future times i reccomend trying to find a dfferent way in. TFTC

Found with VWnuts. nice little walk through the bush to the cache. TFTC.

Found today whilst we were out grabbing a few nearby caches. This one was on the way home, and a nice stroll in the bush
Found with Nearra
TFTC

Dried this out as best we could. Suggest if someone going out this way to take a cloth and some new bags as very very sodden inside.

Hiked through the bush and grabbed it. Very very wet. Dried out as best we could. Old log is a sodden mess. Replaced bag on new log. Most in cache damaged. Removed a coupld of items for disposal. TFTC

Enjoyed this one. A lovely walk. The bike riders are a bit mad here. Nearly got cleaned up by a crazy rider!!

This one had us stumped for a while (pun intended).
Nice walk from home on a nice day.
Cheers,
Jessie-James

Found with Ruby Red Rocket. Good one!! m&j

Nice cache! Nice walk! thanks for the cache!

My first geocache find TFTC

Out with Stealth and we actually found this cache! I'd tried before more than 2 1/2 years ago but was stopped by flooded terrain. Much easier access today!!! TFTC

A pleasant short walk in the late afternoon. Great to see so many people out and about in this lovely part of Brisbane.

Thanks for the cache.

I was abducted by Goldielochs (LochB) today to help find caches.

Goldielochs was on the money. I think they were remote control cars I could hear in the distance.

TFTC

Found this one easily with The_Nuts. Great find with lots of goodies!! TFTC

This one was absolutely simple. It's our second time and nothing has been so easy. GoodLuck TFTC

A fun find ! When on the bush track we first took the "high road" but should have known better ! Finally took the correct track when we back-tracked to the fork in the track and only needed a few minutes in the bush to find the cache. The hint certainly helped. Left a few trinkets and GeoKids picked up a few too. Thanks for the fun find !

Think we may have been in the wrong spot. Will have another look next time we are passing.

This one came up on my radar while caching with Fangsoki. I left him at the car and raced off for this quick find.

Nice easy one. TFTC

I took nothing and left a soccerball keyring. (just to go with the theme of the cache)

This was cache # 20 of 32 on day three of my Brisvegas Tour. Not sure I approached this from the right track but I got there in the end. My thanks to eventful for the cache.

Watch on sort Toy racing game look interest and walk to track... hide well..........

fun walk and find while on soccer duties. cheers

Tackled this one while in the area. Parked the car on Jinker Track - making everyone slow down coz the Territory looks like a speed camera van Found the cache with no problems - co-ords were spot on. I had read previously that the logs were satched - but I had forgotten it was this particular cache. My pen thankfully could sign on the sodden log. However, I thought about the next cacher (gosh I'm nice ) and went back to the car to get a new notebook and a new plastic bag. I have left the old log book in the cache in its plastic bag. TFTC eventful

Hooray, was nice and easy for my first Geocache

I took the opportunity to grab this one while in the area... Perfect caching weather today and even better when walking through some patches of bush... [^]

Locating the cache was no trouble but, adding my name to the log was. It is completely unusable so I slipped one of my stickers into the container instead. Unusual for such a container to get so wet but, water is getting in somehow...

Thanks for the walk and the cache Eventful.

Found with Nanabombana & Tollazor my very first cache

The whole log to scribe on was very wet ended up slipping another piece of paper

First find of the day a bit tricky but not for Supernana , not to keen on the mozzies

Found with geoson 3.
Water logged, log not usable/ruined.
Took Wi-Robin trackable.

thought we had gone the wrong way but soon found out that this would be an off road experience.
Log was extremely wet and i reccomend it being replaced.
TFTC

That's right folks Mini-ogre has for its 100th cache!!!! Oh so proud!!! Just a few more to get 1000!!! Cache is in good condition. TNLN/SL/TFTC

Lovely stroll once we figured out where to park. Perfect spot for the cache and it is in great condition. TNLNSL. TFTC eventful

Took the kids to find this one, good one.

Found at 1636 by the Geokids.

A nice easy find with the hint but we had a little trouble retrieving the goods from the hidey hole.

We built it up a little before putting the cache back just for safety purposes but it's still well hidden. We don't want to spoil the hunt

TNLN SL TFTC

Not all that keen on sticking my arm into a stump in the middle of nowhere, especially when your by your self. Having said that, the chance to log another cache makes it all worth it.
