Been here twice and too many muggles today. I think I get the clue but obviously hasnt helped us find it yet. Well be back!
Today we take a cycling Tour around this area and found many Cache. We are from germany All the best from Team diddyhonda
Not sure where it could be or if its even there. Checked every little spot it could be!!!! Pls check its still there spent ages looking
found!! muggle was sitting on the bench and looking at us a little confused, i didnt wanna look sus but refused to give up wasnt exactly in the attire to be looking for this but found it pretty quickly, forgot a pen so heres ur proof tftc!!
Out and about on a sunny day with BIKESU and muggle brother Siggi to get more smiles.Tftc . Konie Found on 19/8/24
Today, on our second attempt, we found this cache and signed the log.Then we took off to attend today's two events on the Sunny Coast.Tftc Konie
Actually looked for this one for a while months ago and spent some time crawling under something with no luck.Today I found it quickly thanks
It was a hard one! But its there! We didnt quite get what the clue meant but somehow my daughter came across it
Oh my! We spent a considerable time looking for this. So rewarding when we finally found it. TFTC
Difficult but worth it. Friends left a ducky in there for the next Cachers to find
Found it!Dang this took a while, my brother was doing an Oz Tag comp across the road and I thought that I could go down and find it. Found it with my Dad, it took about 30 mins. Good luck! Don't give up!TFTC!
Cache checked and it's still there. Replaced torn bag and broken container and left the old log in place.Look harder.Happy caching.
Couldnt find it.. looking at the comments, it looks like it hasnt been found since sept 23
Looked long and hard for this. Followed the clues which showed it around here. Unless someone has moved it or we just completely missed it. Will come back later.
Didnt find it again. Tried to follow the other log entries of having to dig/needing a stick to poke it out, but still no luck. The hint also seems odd and a couple of log entries have recommended disregarding it altogether. Left feeling a bit disappointed.
Searched for ages at night, bushes very overgrown but tried to persevere until I came across this not a huge fan of snakes so that sent me straight out of there. Might give this one another go during the day
I looked around for a bit, but I couldnt find it. TFTCI did get this cool pen from silly Sollys while on my way to the Cache though.
TFTC this one was a fun one. I looked at the most recent find on it, and I found a picture of what size it was, and I was able to find it in a couple minutes. This ones not too hard you guys should definitely try it out. I found a stick nearby and I just used that as a tool. theres a magnet in it dont touch that, but I wasnt able to write something on the logbook inside because I didnt bring a pen
TFTC! this one was so much fun and you have hidden it so well! SPOILER ALERT!: Went here via bike and when i found the suspected hiding place, all the sticks nearby were too flimsy to push it out but an appropriate TOTT is a pen (you will need one anyways to sign the logbook) so use that to your advantage! thanks again!
I was unable to find this, even with all the help of the comments I saw a light grey metal pole in one of them, and I rushed to the metal poles, and I couldnt find anything there. I also saw it was an eclipse box. I couldnt find anything that would fit the eclipse box next to the starting point.
Kiddo playing at the Stadium for the football GF. A quick cache during their warm ups. All is good with the hide. TFTC
Came back with more information about possible locations, but still wasn't easy to extract from it's
hide.
hide.
Not sure where to look after reading the comments.
However even all that information wasn't there for us today

Out caching with CaptainVimes and little_miss_cacher. I had to dig it out with a stick. Thanks for the cache Konie
Can’t seem to find it. I’m in the right location. Place of Cache seems to be over grown. Might need to change spot of location!
Didn’t find it today but will check again if someone else logs it. Bushes are really overgrown. 5/8/23
24/5/2023 Find #6121
With SaintsMadHouse out of todays adventures as she wasn’t feeling well, I decided to head north alone today and grab a few of the older caches I just had not yet managed to clear once I had finished a nice relaxing acupuncture session.
Having achieved my main goal today, I decided to continue north and try to rectify my previous attempts at this cache.
The weather was glorious, and I did wonder how muggles out is be here today, but being mid-week likely made substantial difference. Yes there were people waking or riding the path, but no one was here at the undercover area here, so I headed over and began my search, still very aware of the people passing by.
I will admit I opted for a quick PAF here after a little looking, and despite having checked that spot already, then had a quick find - there was much dirt covering the cache first time around, so a little more digging/scraping soon revealed what I was after. DNF avenged! And 1MinnieMoo happy. There was time for perhaps one or two more caches before having to make the return journey home.
Thanks for the cache Konie.

Out and about with T4mmmy and drove past here - as always it was flat out busy and I mentioned that I've been here several times and the place is ALWAYS busy. sad, but once again prepared to just move along. T4mmmy noted though that it wasn't AS busy at GZ, and with two of us why not try. OK, so we walked over to GZ, and after a bit of snaffing about worked out where it was likely to be (a good likely spot). And it wasn't that busy here - the starters were up there, and the boats were out there and noone cared about us two sight-seers. So as a race got setup and focus was on the water I set about (magnet on a stick helped) retrieving, logging, returning .... outa here".
Phew. So so happy to finally snag this one, a FP for the hide and the challenge.
Thanks Konie for entertaining me at this location.

Was hard to find got it in the end you need to get a stick or pen to get it also don't get distracted by the hint
Was super difficult to find, hidden far in. But got there in the end. Really appreciated reading the comments of others. Thanks for the find!
Looked and looked but we just couldn't find it. Maybe one day we'll come back with fresh eyes and find it. If anyone has any help for me I would really appreciate it .
Up on the Sunshine Coast, to fill a few hidden dates, This cache was one required, now it is on the done list, Thanks Konie, all is in good condition here today, had a few TBs visiting as well
Okay, so the day started at 6am so that we could catch a few caches to help the geo-dad (Cliff5009) fill in a few holes in his Hidden Dates chart.
A bit of a drive up Bruce Highway early on a spring morning, during the school holidays, so traffic was not too bad.
So this was cache 1 for the day.
I have been here with the rest of the FNG team a few times, with no luck. However, with the Geo dad needing this one to fill a hole, we were always going to spend a bit more time doing this.
Took a little while to visually check out all spots that could be a hiding spot. Now time to move on and use "feel" as a guide to find it.
Okay, here it is. Okay, whilst we have found it, it is still not an easy one to retrieve.
Finally, have it in hand, have a squiggle in the lo book and can return it to where it came from and make sure it is ready for the next person.
Thank you very much for placing this cache.
Quite a challenge!!

Nice to have wheelchair accessible for our friend! Found it after we figured out the clue
Took 2 attempts with my 4 young kids and we finally found it! our first ever. Really fun thanks again!
came back for the second time with two years apart while at school oztag and still couldn’t find it.
Konie I found your cache Start Line on 23/6/2022, 9:50 am. This is my find 3569 and find # 1 today. With the confirmation from CO that the cache is there, decided to have another go. This time found it after a brief search. The next problem was how to get it out. After thinking about it found an appropriate TOTT and soon was signing the log. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
Quick find here today. 2nd cache I have found today after redneck spider. They must be doing the same challenge.
Konie I didn’t find your cache Start Line on 30/3/2022, 3:21 pm. Searched around but nothing found.
Feeling like numpties! My son doubts the existence of anything ‘worth looking for’
Had a brief search but muggles turned up for lunch so we had to call it quits. Tricky little bugger!
Out with chamad, E_Smiley, Duppers collecting caches on the beautiful Sunshine Coast.
After an early start we made our way north, collecting caches as we went.
This was a quick find, after signing the log we continued our journey.
Thanks Koniefor the cache.

A plan was set for today to try to complete as many of the sunshine coast caches as possible with a target of 140 (my target). Todays little group was Willis007, Esmiley, newcomer Duppers and myself. We meet at the arranged meeting point; we worked out where we were going and had a plan for the day. It was a little slow start but once all the formalities were done it was all systems go. The day was a lot of fun, with laughs, the usual banter and some nice walks. The plan changed a little as we went, we got a third of our targets, which I was happy with, as it was a big ask considering the caches were doing. We had a few DNF’s which took up a lot of time, a couple of multis that had us stuck for a checker tick. We were lucky to have Esmiley along who had completed a few of the caches and gave us some insight.
Thanks to all the CO’s for the caches and some fun hides and to my caching buddies for the day. We signed all logs and replaced containers as we found them.
A nice little series of caches, and a couple of tuff but good thinking hides. We did not get our feet wet today. The hint made no sense to us here.
All good with this cache and now it is onto the next one.

Came here this morning with the geokids in a light breeze only to find the cache dislodged from its hidey hole, with a ripped plastic bag and saturated log. Cycled back this afternoon with a replacement log after a chat with the CO, only to find that the light breeze has turned into a full-blown gale. You wouldn't want to be rowing on that lake right now... In fact, Kelly Slater could probably paddle out and make a go of it.
There's a fresh log and bag in place here now and the container is back in its spot. Enjoyed the hint on this one – TFTC, Konie!

A Friday afternoon trip to the Sunshine Coast with Mr CuriousQuest to find a few caches. Next, we made our way to this cache. The cache was quickly located and the log signed. TFTC
Out on a Friday afternoon with Selva Girls. Up on the Sunshine Coast grabbing a few caches . Another quick find; log signed and cache returned as found. TFTC
This geocache is my longest un-rectified DNF. Or at least, it was until today. Back in [2013](https://coord.info/GLA3Y1F5) I managed to not find it, and then managed to never return for all those years. Over eight years. And seeing that it's a slightly older beast, it is of interest.
For the day, I was with oz_bean_counter for a hike up a hill, then a wander for some oldies. An hour or more ago we'd mooted finding lunch, and finally having done so, I suggested we head here for lunch and to find the geocache.
Given the shelter shed over the water was empty, it was a perfect spot to consume nutrition, rehydrate and chat about modern politics. Nerds. When that was over, it was onto the geocache. Naturally, we poked around for a while before OBC felt she'd found it.
It took some fangdoodling and finagling with four fingers and a stick, but we did get the little eclipse tin out. I mean, the hint works, but we earned about a D3 just wiggling it out! The logbook was signed (and all replaced a little less torturously), place appreciated an that blue frown turned upside down. Thank you for keeping this geocache alive long enough for me to find it, Konie

We had such a great day out Geocaching with our buddies.
This one took some searching, but eventually we found what was needed. But that was only half the problem; we needed to work out how to extract it.
Mr Domsky found a way to sort this and we soon had our names added to the log sheet.
Thanks Konie

Nice spot to stop for lunch, rehydrate, and find an old cache. Lovely view over the lake on a glorious winter's day. Just perfect. After a few minutes of searching the cache was found... but how to retrieve it from its lair? It was like delicate surgery, and involved four fingers and two sticks. I was quite happy when the cache was finally extracted. Log signed, and a short wait until a kid and his mother scooted past, and it was returned as found.
Please ensure you don't push it too far in!
