Hi Caebs,
This cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, only to discourage people from visiting this location until this cache may be addressed.
**Please note that caches disabled during the current COVID19 crisis you will be given some extra time to react as we recognise that CO's can't just pop out and fix the issue,** geocache maintenance can wait. Once the acute threat of pandemic is over, I will remind you about your cache needing attention.
Should you feel it safe for you to maintain and address this cache now, AND your regional Health and Governmental authorities allow it, please feel free to do so. However, I would like to assure you I will not be archiving any caches which the cache owner does not currently feel safe to maintain.
I'll pass by in about another 45 days and hopefully this will all be over.

With the previous DNF's, we almost didn't attempt this one. My intrepid buddy, beersNzombies suggested we give it a try seeing we were this close.
So happy for the push as this awesome ammo tin was found quite easily
Thanks Caebs, tin in good condition. The name is very clever...just got the reference

Didn’t find, went part way into the sticky shrub but wearing a sleeping baby stopped us from going in deep.

Parked on the wrong side of the creek, and got my boots muddy. But who doesn’t love this types of caches.

Had a good look at two possible places as alluded to by the hint but came up short. Shame since it's such a large cache.
I found this geocache. It is off the coordinates by 9m and off the track under a fallen tree. Found it, great one.
This morning Dez (JezNDez) and I were out early grabbing some local caches before heading over to attend the Geo Muster event. We spent a ggod amount of time here this morning searching an unlikely spot indicated by the GPS. After a while we reviwed some logs which indicated we sould be looking for a particular item further afield. Sure enough the container was duly located after readjusting our search zone. TFTC
Grabbing a couple of caches with Seff (seffnjarah) in this area before attending the OzGeo event at lunchtime. We swung in here and spent some time looking at GZ as indicated by the co-ords. When no cache was found we widened our search as suggested by previous logs and the find was made quickly. TFTC
Couldn’t find this one, only horrible scrubby branches that rip your hat off and mozzies
Looking at the last posts, someone had moved it off the real GZ. Also, if you look at the hint it shouldn't be too hard to find. Definitely out of muggles harm . By the way, the Canadian Club is not mine
Princess Sunrise is a natural! Here she is with her second ever cache, and first ever ammo can . Easily found thanks to the hint.
Nice quick find with geo friends today whilst in the neighbourhood. Thanks Caebs for the neat hide and TFTC
Mrs RoddyC out with the girls after the CITO. Quick find and on our way.
Log signed and replaced again. Found 2.10pm 30.4.17. TFTC.

In the process of logging some new cache finds and found a couple on our GPSr that we had found but "missed" logging on Geocaching.com.
Appologies for the late log.
Thanks for the hunt Caebs.

Searching around in the bush for a while but it was found fairly quickly. Thanks for the cache!
Found with geo son and daughter, cache in good condition. Signed and returned. TFTC co. :^)
Last cache for today, glad it was an easy find we made sure it was covered well before we left. Tftc
I parked the care and made my way along the track to GZ. THere, I located a nice sized cache and signed the log. TFTC
Arrived into Brisbane today, set up in the caravan park Then after lunch we set out to find a few caches not far from where we are camped. This was like a tiki tour of the area.
Its good to see a nice large container, a few swaps inside.
Thanks for placing this cache Caebs

Nope.
Another GZ.
Nope.
Third time lucky.

Took a walk along a creek bank, found a cache, signed a log and were back at the nearby pony club before anyone realised we were missing. TFTC
Tftc quite an adventure crossing the creek, ducking the red berry trees and finally finding the ammo container (first time I've found one - very exciting!
I was amazed to find this so easily - within a minute! I was here about 7 or 8 months ago with Tricky T - we searched for quite a while but could not locate this cache then.
Out this way for a day of caching. I had spied some pretty flowers in the bush which then had us looking in the direction to see the the cache, which KerriMG actually spotted first. Read a few of the old entries. Love it when a log book survives.
Dropped off a TB.
TFTC.

Out for the day caching with Nikid1 around Wynnum
This was our 6th find of the day.
Took a bit of ducking & weaving to make my way into this one. Great to find a good size cache container & be able to leave some bigger swaps, hopefully the my little pony will enjoy her time her in the bush. Left Bugsley TB, he has been on many an adventure with us & is so cute. Picked up a new TB.
Log signed & cache replaced as found.

Oh WOW! I had my doubts about the jungle, but that was COOL! TFTC! Everything safe & in great condition. Signed log & left a few lil treasures. X
With a free morning, I decided to scout about further South from home, and find some caches on both sides (good side and dark side ) of the Brisbane River.
Drove on from the last obe, and after 5mins going in circles, found the nice ammo tin. This cache adds to our total of 2053 smilies, thanks Caebs for showing us this spot.
Feel free to discover our trackable code TGQNRV

We've just moved to the area, and what better way to get to know it then by grabbing a few caches. This was a fun experience, Dirk left most of the navigating up to me so naturally we had the strangest, most unecessary route ever! Cache was found in perfect condition and carefully hidden away. Tftc

Edit: didn't look at the logs for this until I got home. Not sure why others couldn't find it. I found it exactly at the co-ordinates. It was sitting in front of the log and visible from a few metres away. When I finished with it I left it behind the log so it was not quite so visible to people walking along the nearby path

Walking further along this pathway (more litter and rubbish), Tricky T and I zeroed in to the allotted coordinates. Spent quite some time searching - seems the cache is either so well hidden or taken away. May try again another day.
Oh, I hope we are just cache blind here but swampybees and I searched long and hard here, checked the clue and went back to every spot that seemed to fit but no luck. As it is a large cache and previous hunters seemed to find it easy I feel it may be gone. The CO may need to check it out. Hope I'm wrong.
I came out today to get this cache as I needed it to fill a gap in my "hidden calendar". The cache was found easily, while I had to avoid a couple of spider webs. Signed the log. Saw a massive spider. No snakes. TFTC
Finding a nearby puzzle cache today and picking up this one along the way. A few mozzies but soon brushed them off. A nice little walkway to take the dog. TFTC caebs
SNAKE!! tried for this cache today but while walking towards the first cache from the road, i came across a black snake with red stripe. just a warning for anyone else attempting this.
Came by on the way to work this afternoon seeking a cache that fills a spot on my 'Found by Date Hidden' calendar, and this one fits the bill.
i wasn't sure where to enter from, and took an educated guess. yep - that was easy! woohoo. A short stroll off track and a cache was found. Log signed and returned....now why do I feel like Ice Cream so much!
Thanks for the cache Caebs.

On approach to GZ, feared a repeat experience of GC2HFNN through thicker than expected undergrowth. Not quite as bad here but still got caught and scratched by various branches and thorns.
Woohoo! Rascal Badgers are on a roll today, took a long time to debate trades. Great size of cache
