It is with a sad heart that I am forced to archive this cache. The monument has been removed due to major road works and will not be replaced for many months yet. We are not allowed to keep the cache temporally disabled so I must archive it!

Stay tuned though, once the monument is back in place there will be another cache there!!

Cheers Wesso

I noticed that this cache has been temporarily disabled for a period of time well in excess of the period of "a few weeks" as contemplated by the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other caches from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it (using the *archive listing* link in the upper right) so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location.

If you plan on repairing this cache, **please log a note to the cache** (not email) within the next 28 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

I found this one at night as we were spending the night in the free camp area over the road. Much roadworks happening, but cache is safe and well. tftc.

Got this one today, yay!not sure how long we will be able to access this once the road changes are complete. Took the challenge today as no workmen around. Geocache daughters refused to take part. So pleased I got it.

Find #330 Big Grin

Driving from Beaudesert to Cooroy and back today, had to break the trip up a bit and what better way to do it then to find some caches. Ended up finding 6 today, not a bad haul at all.

This one was such a great cache. I have so many fond memories as a kid of the great man and miss him terribly. It was an absolute honour to be be even just passsing near his old stomping ground and explaining to the kiddos who he was and why it looked like a crocodile was trying to eat him.

Lots of spiders here, which worked in my favour because there was plenty to photograph whilst discreetly searching. So many muggles! Some took an interest in me but when I pulled the phone out taking photos, they quickly lost interest. Cache was quickly found, ducked down to sign and replace. One final photo for posterity and I was off.

Rest in peace Mr Iwin, you're a true Aussie Hero.

Thanks for the cache Wesso Family, cache is in great condition.

Went to the Queensland for 10 day's, landing on the Goldcoast, picking up a car rental. We spent the first 4 days staying in a nice hotel in Surfers paradise, doing all the Theme parks and some caching... While at the theme parks we got to pat Dolphins, feed Tigers etc. Then we headed up to Australia Zoo, where we booked a Tiger wall, Which was amazing, after the day at the zoo, we headed to Harvey bay, for 4 day's before heading back to the Goldcoast to return car, and catch flight home. Really loved the new Lego store at Dreamworld, went back 3 times.Tftc

Today we ventured down to Caloundra, this was a tiki tour following the caches along the way.
Scenic views of mountains & seascape. Passed through some new subdivisions as well, some seemed quiet upmarket.
A good variety of caches & hides found.
Detoured off the highway on the way home, found a similar cache to the other end of Steve Irwin Way.
Thanks for placing this cache Wesso Family

Thanks a lot for all of Aussie caches! I must say that Australia is really beautiful and one of the best country for holiday! Me and my girlfriend enjoyed 52 days long traveling (from Brisbane to Brisbane via Cairns, Darwin, Alice Springs, Adelaide, Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney and Gold Coast), sleeping in our car and of course geocaching here! Wink

Greetings from the Czech Republic/Europe! I would like to invite all australian geocachers to Czechia, we have got many excellent caches on amazing places too!

Travelling around Australia and currently in Queensland.

Caravan set up at Beerwah Sportsground so we decided to head out to find a few caches in the surrounding area. A list was constructed but with a late start this was our first find at 10.30am it was dark o'clock when we returned home. Surprised

An interesting day of walks, fave points, scenic areas. Glad we came to this region.

Our last cache before getting on the highway and zooming off to our place at Coolabine. I have to say I tip toed around looking for this one. The ground was a bit wet and muddy. I finally spotted it and said to myself "did it have to be there!". Trust me not to have my boots on. So in I went with my thongs on. Um, mud between my toes is not my idea of fun and the wipes in the car didn't do much to get it all off LOL. Thanks for the caches in this area Wesso Family. Made for a fun afternoon of caching for me and the little chikins.

Super easy find. The Geokids spotted it and retrieved it while faking a tourist paparazzi shot! Secretly sign and hidden again for the next cacher. Hopefully the next visit will be sooner than the distance before us.

#1365 Unlike 'Steves Way - Crikey', this rest area was full of parked cars, but luckily not one muggle in sight. Super quick find in between. Possibly my last geo find in QLD as I return to Canberra tomorrow. Thanks Wesso Family for all your geocaches and maintaining them for future cachers.

I was asked by some friends to take them out for a day of Geocaching as they really enjoyed our last adventure. Today's goal was to finish what we had started at Ewen Maddock Dam.

This cache was found quickly after the nearby cemetery cache. We retreated behind the largest section of the sign to sign the logbook. Replaced as found.

This was find number 10 out of 10 on perhaps our most successful day of caching ever. Papadavid drove up, and I got a very lucky sight line from the passenger seat. "I think I cam see it." Ducked back to the car for the signing, where poor Greatbritishbeef hadn't even had a chance to unbuckle her seatbelt yet! Then tucked it back where it was and we were away before we knew it. One of the greatest Drive-By caches we'll ever experience, I reckon! TFTC.
