Thanks so much for this cache would never gave known this piece of history was here x
Grabbing some caches in the local area. thought i would pop in and grab this.Quick grab and go. No issues here.Thanks.
Needed a quick find for today to fill in a blank spot on the calendar for caching. Thanks for bringing me to this area, I had no idea these rings existed so that was cool. At GZ, cache was found really quickly. I popped a new piece of paper in that Ive signed. Ive removed the mush of the other one as it was not salvageable. I didnt have a plastic baggy so u sure how long it will last. TFTC.
Eww, that was sodden but we were able to stamp it. Glad they were able to preserve this Bora ring. TFTC
Always good to see indigenous history preserved and a bit sad to read about the rest of the complex being under housing. We quickly found the cache. Sadly it had seen better days. The log was saturated so we opened it at the first page that opened without tearing and made our mark. Thanks wirzwei
Yay! Found it! Bora ring is cool too. And a super friendly doggo next door came to say Hi!
First time seeing a Bora Ring. Easy find. Case he needs maintenance. With @dataverageboy
walked a few meters and found it. good find with jerodanime. case may need maintenance
With a few hours to kill this afternoon and after a big long weekend last weekend I popped out to pick up a few caches and keep up the good numbers for the year this far.I headed west this afternoon and had an adventure lab and a few unknowns on the radar. I parked the car and quickly made my way to GZ and quickly located the cache. Log extracted and mark made I was soon back on the route to the car and off to the next adventure.A big thanks to the cache owner for making this cache available for fellow cachers to enjoy.Cheers
Was up here visiting the Bora ring with my family for the first time to create a connection with the energy, just before leaving I had a feeling to walk over to the left of the sign my higher self was telling me to look for rocks. I found a beautiful rock that caught my attention so I picked it up and underneath I found the plastic container with instructions in it and items . I was unaware that this was a thing geocaching. So now Im here.
Quick find this evening as we were in the area and wanted a cache-for-the-day. This one ticked a box for me and I have always been fascinated by Bora rings ... this is a good example and nice to have a sign.
Thanks WirZwei for entertaining me at this location.

SaintsMadHouse and I decided that today we would tackle some caches in this area. We were particularly after some of the Indy Jones series, and decided to throw in caches in the similar vicinity of course. With most of our planned goal achieved, we checked the map and decided to tackle bits and pieces of others around.
I was keen for this one due to its age, and a Bora ring is always an interesting location.
The cache had a big hole in the lid and was showing definite signs of age. We placed it upside down to keep the inside from collecting water, however after we completed our day and headed back to SaintsMadHouse’s car to end the day, she found a spare container and I dashed back here to put the replacement in.
Good to go for a few more years now.
Thanks for the cache wirzwei.

Box was all cracked and holey so we will come back in a half hour and replace it with a new one from the other car. Glad this is preserved here
Out on a great caching day with Kolour and chamad, we had a couple of target caches on the radar, and collected some others along the way. As we headed towards home we collected a couple in Bellbowrie.
A quick find here today, log signed and all was replaced as found.
Thanks WirZwei for the cache.

I was invited along with Willis007 and Kolour for a day of some short walking caches. Perfect for me as my legs have been feeling it of late. There were a few puzzle caches and a couple of multi and trads. As always, the day is filled with huge laughs and some great stunt driving (no matter who is driving).
Our adventures continued around the area and it was a few around Bellbowrie area. This was one of those, an easy walk around and find here.
We signed the log and replaced as found. Thanks for bringing me up here.

Found it! It was exposed so have hidden it as best we can. Grabbed the trackable too. Will move it on!
What an interesting place this is and the cache was soon found. Tucked it a bit out of sight . Thanks for taking me here and for placing this cache here for us to enjoy
First log done!! Awesome cute little cache not many in the area nice joke inside ️
I cant believe this has been here since 2008 and I only just found out about it!
Today, I headed out to Lake Manchester to join georode on a kayak expedition. That adventure involved a 2 km return on foot (and kayaks on wheels) hike, and a 7.5 km paddle, with the trek up the hills the most tiring.
Following the kayak morning, I returned back via a few stops in Mount Crosby, Karana Downs, Anstead, Moggill, and Bellbowrie. An hour was spent taking a hike to where eagles soar, and a stop at Anstead Bushland Reserve's quarry was pretty cool and a favourite of the day.
Driving by all the mansions in this area was pretty cool. I can see why the Moggill residents don't want a bridge, as it keeps this area that just little bit more secluded, and feelings of remote, whilst still not too far away from Brisbane. After parking at this cul-de-sac, I took a walk, and made a quick find of the cache. There wasn't much camouflage on this cache and thus it was quite exposed, so I made sure to hide it better. It surprised me that this cache has lasted so long, but perhaps at this dead end street, it doesn't receive too many visitors. The cache container and logbook were in good shape, and interesting history. Thanks WirZwei for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

We were just going for a Sunday drive and saw the sign so decided to investigate. The cache was totally exposed it so we covered it with the nearby bark that seemed to be there for the purpose. An interesting place, thanks for placing a cache here.
Found it and learnt some awesome local history. Left behind a long lost trackable as well
TFTC! Quick little find and learnt some history!
Log is a little wet from the recent rain but I tried to close the ziplock and box as tight as possible to be watertight

Pretty cool location here and lucky it’s been preserved. Quick find. Thanks for the cache
Spending a morning geocaching in this area and discovering new places. Cache found easily as it was part sitting out in the open. Covered it up a bit more. Tftc and showing me this bora ground.
Today is Australia Day so we made an effort to visit a site of Aboriginal significance. This is the second Bora Ring I've seen. Thanks for placing a cache here!

Drove past this site and wondered what it was. Whilst reading the info here I thought it woukd be a great place for a cache. A quick check and low and behold one not too far off. Nice find in a lovely area. First found in longer than I care to admit

We found this one today whilst out in the countryside for a day of driving and exploring. Cache container is virtually non existent due to Uv light and Cache Owner has been written to to this effect. We did however bundle up cache as best as possible and put it in a ziplock bag to try and protect the log book which was dry at time of signing. TFTC from the inspectorrexteam.
