Ignoring the rudeness of previous person, found it, but GZ was a little off. Needed to meander a little in the bush.
 
17-Aug-24
Such a quick easy find that I do not know why the last person here could not find it. If I was feeling mean I would give the hint "Go to GZ, Open eyes"

Found: 16.08We are making a bike tour around East point and while having a short rest in the shade at one of the picnic places, we noticed this cache nearby. We had not planned to go for it, but when we noticed that its size was regular, we decided that this would be a good place for a TB that had to find its way back to Australia after a visit to Europe. The cache was found after a little search and it was big enough for the camel TB.Out: nothingIn: squirrel and TB

Last day in Darwin and I was up early chasing down a few labs about the place plus whatever trads took my fancy. Decided to start out at the East Point Reserve as it looked to have some interesting history and such.Parked up across the road for this one and headed towards GZ only 20 odd meters away. Bit of jungle to get there though, felt a bit like Tarzan but spotted the container on approach for the quick find.gibbo003 I found your cache at 7:07am, this was the 4th of 23 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 8431. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.SLTFTC

Ended up on the Hop-on, Hop-off bus today. So, we hopped on and hopped off many times. It was quite the adventure. Came out here to get caches and ad labs.No luck at this spot. Too many green ants and waaaay too hot.
 
06-Oct-23
Back in Darwin for a long weekend as we had to pass by so quickly last trip. Last time we looked at the WW2 history nearby here and completed the Adventure Lab but had to rush off to get to our next destination. My friend's Grandad was stationed in Darwin during the war and we found his picture on one of the signs, so he was happy to come back for another look while I found the trads I missed. Quick find for me here thankfully, glad to have been able to return for a smilie. Tftc!

Day 62 of our greynomad trip up north and after a the JLWEvents, a tour of Maralinga and caching to claim LGAs in the Eyre Peninsula, we finally escaped the southern weather that has been wet and windy. Not sure that we are acclimatised to the northern heat yet as we are feeling it by early afternoon, but out sightseeing and caching in the morning.

Was necessary to have a week back home in Nth Vic before arriving back in Darwin yesterday. Out and about earlier today as we need to get used to the temperature again. Mr Ed had us walking in circles for a while until I read previous logs that revealed we should widen our circle and use cache sense. That worked.

No luck. Dad and I searched for like 15 minutes and just had no clue. Even looked at photos from other people but still clueless. Such a shame. Sad
 
16-Jul-23
Eventually found but his was some 12 m off for me.
 
16-Jul-23
Eventually found it. 7 to 8 metres out by my gps. Look for a cachey spot.
 
15-Jul-23
Another quick grab on our way past to see some WWII gunner infrastructure in the area.

Cache was a very easy find and the container is in great condition (although the log book probably needs changing soon). Thanks for the cache and the experience in this area

Today we flew into Darwin before heading to Kunnanurra tomorrow, so the obvious past time was to go do some caching! We had a great few hours caching around Darwin.

Quick find at GZ, all in pristine condition even with the age…

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache gibbo003

We’ve just arrived in Darwin. We're off again in the morning, so instead of sitting by the pool, rented a car and went caching. We aimed primarily at some D:T's we are chasing, with a few extras here and there. It was a big shock to the system after caching all day in Goulburn last weekend in 9 degrees max temps!
This took a few minutes backtracking in and out of the scrub, but we got there.

Thanks for the cache!
 
08-Jul-23
Found with my brothers @david_lissimore & @adam_L1 whilst visiting from Brisbane.

Just catching up on my logs...found this on 25/7.

Bit of bush-bashing, but managed to find it first time I've found a travel bug excited to continue it's journey in Brisbane

This took a few minutes but was very obvious once seen. Lovely. I also said good morning to various horses but was ignored. TNLN-TFTC!

A bit of a bush bash here as the owner of the horses was feeding them right near where the entry to the GZ was.
Otherwise soon a quick find and logged.

Part of a morning trip to East Point.

This is our last day in Darwin so we decided to focus on some caches in the city, Fannie Bay and Lee point.

We picked up this doggo on the side of the road near berry springs when I had got out of the car to go and grab a cache. I didnt end up finding the cache but came back to the car with doggo instead. I dont want to take him home with me so he can stay in the cache here until someone wants him. TFTC
