Could not locate. Double checked our maths and still came up with same answer. Cache has not been located for 6 months. Has it been muggled? or buried deep under the Mulch that has been placed around the garden area by the council. Will have another look at another time.

No luck for DisSister and me today. We couldn't give it a good going over though due to the curiosity being shown by the young nearby skaters.

This was a busy spot today but we had a look anyway. We didn't manage to spot the cache though.

Our second day of caching on our weekend away in Toowoomba. We were on a mission this morning that was going to take us to the moon a pack but with a few detours like this one.

We had stopped here once before but as we were very short of time didn't even start. This morning however we gathered the numbers, did the maths, walked a bit and hunted around till we spotted our target.

A young father with his son was also up early - wander which one of them doesn't sleep in yet. We thought they had left but as we walked away, we spotted them looking at us. Sprung!! - but they kept walking.

The creek looks great.

Found at 2.05pm GAFF1. Certainly a lot of pride has gone into the development of this area. Looks very appealing to us - and there is even water in the creek!
A well concealed hide - hope we hid it just as well.
Thanks Speedmistress.

A bit disappointing for Mrs George who thought she was going to get a bit more of a walk along by the creek.
No real problems though, as we soon had the cache found, logged, and hidden again.
No swaps, TFTC Speedmistress.

No muggles today. The cache was exposed so we covered it a bit better.

Thanks!

What a pity the "Mick's" boneyard is in such a poor state. If I lived near here I'd make it a project for restoration. Still we enjoyed the history lesson provided by the cache.TNLN
Thanks Del for another great cache.

Hope to go to Toowoomba on Monday so will check this out and see if it is OK. Any other reports would be appreciated.

we came and we looked. but could not find this one. there was evidence of cachers who came before... but that could have been muggle activity too.
I have now looked here twice and can not find it. Lots of rubbish... would be a good site for a Cache in Trash out event.

An enjoyable little information seeker with no one around and it was found at 1710hrs. The TB listed in the cache wasn't there.

Found with geo-uncle Lat&Long Junkie on our Great Western Raid weekend. Beautiful area down by the creek as well. As mentioned in L&LJ logs, visit the toilet, it's interesting. TFTC

Number 4 on the great western raid with "Bedmaker". Found the info, did the calculations and found the cache. It was well covered, but I just happened to look "there" first [^]. We spotted a Tawny Frog Mouth owl in a nearby tree. S/he was probably hoping we'd take a hint from the angry magpie and go away.
Hey, how about that toilet? Push-button doors, change table, automatic soap/water/air dryer and even music while you ... you know Red Face. When you open to door to leave it even flushes automatically. About the only thing it doesn't do is use the paper for you Big Grin.

Found at 0700 today. Nice quick calculations and very easy to find GZ. Found quickly as muggles were out and about. Oh and Yes the resident magpie is still very annoying. Provided an escort from the car to GZ and no charge for the aerial entertainment.

A good hiding spot in a lovely area. The resident magpie gave us a start at first and was quite noisy alerting the muggles. The container was visible so recovered it. The walk around the water was worth the effort. Thanks for another good cache.

A relatively easy Multi, out third attempeted this morning. Found the cache as it was a little exposed in a very high muggle area. Is hidden a little better now.

Another great project that already looks great.
