Good Day,

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Needs urgent maintenance. Container crushed - out in open and nothing much inside. I’ve put a new log in. Not sure exactly where it was placed, if you need help to locate where I re-hid it, just yell out.

Travelling around Australia using Geocaching as our Tour Guide.

Staying in Walkamin for a few weeks, today we headed into Mareeba to pick up some clothing alterations and then we were to go shopping but of course we had to try for a smilie first. Nice lookout here and seems to have been lots of new work just done.

Woohoo! My crazy family have made it to Cairns for our yearly holiday Smile Now it is up to my stealth to get in a few sneaky finds without them knowing Razz

I was able to come up with the coords while looking at this cache back home in Brisbane. Which saved me a small amount of time today. While the munchkins and dabom81 were checking out the view I snuck off to GZ to leave my scribble.

Thanks for bringing me to this location and for the smiley macandrita Big Grin

Found it with a friend on a sunny afternoon. Boosted the spoils with several swags and took Blazing Sun Micro GeoCoin TB1J7AZ, which was unexpected. This is a handsome coin in mint condition. I will get this coin moving in the right direction again with a big step towards the equator. I will be on the look out for a hot and sunny position and it should be there within a week. A well planned Cache.

Come to think of it, I haven't seen a bunny since I was in Stanthorpe a couple of months ago !!
Maybe the Great Wall of China that runs through the area actually works to "keep the rabbits out" Big Grin
Or maybe it is just too darn hot and wet for Bunny's up this way !!
Although I did notice that Atherton has failed to keep the Bunnings out [:o]

From the memorial stone, I could see that at least one Bunny lived here in FNQ [:o]
Obviously a brave Bunny and one that served his country well [^]

With GZ worked out I hopped over to find me the cache Big Grin
A likely pile 'o' rocks was found and I wandered around to see if I could spy the out of place rocks that hid the cache Wink
Sure enuff, there they were !!

About then I overbalanced and after a pirouette with a half pike landed on me feet again Big Grin
I had taken some bark of me logbook signing hand though and had to be careful not to drip blood on the logbook page as I signed it Red Face
Hah!! Another scratch !! After all the leech bites, saw grass cuts and various other unknowns that have left me looking like a pincushion over the last few days, I think I could cope with a hole im me thumb Smile
Bunny must have endured far worse [^]

TFTC and view !!

Great cache, fairly quick. Now I understand what the kids are saying when they come home from army cadet camp complaining about spear grass. I think I spent the rest of the day still pulling the spikey stuff out of my clothing. I think I will show them a bit of sympathy in the future. Big Grin. TFTC

The questions were easy to answer but I was very happy to do the math protected by the air condition of my car! Well, I had to go back into the burning heat but it took only seconds to spot the cacheCool

Found this one quite easy despite the long grass for the second stage. It was 4,30 pm when we got there and boy it was good to be able to be in shirt sleeves instead of freezing cold like it would be back home in southern ,NSW.Left nothing as I forgot to take anything with me, seniors moment. However I lifted a geocoin that had been there long enough. Sure is a great lookout. Good hide and story to go with it. TFTC Garnets

I knew Bunny Seary when I taught in Mareeba in the late 1980's and he was a true gentleman, so I really enjoyed the sentiment attached to reading the information about his life on the plaque and then locating the cache. Took the "Chipmunk" Adventure Guide trackable to spur on its journey.

Yay worked this out finally.

Dropped off some shells and Spur me on is now looking over at some cows.

As a present serving Sapper it's alway good to find a cache that is about the RAE. A storm was rolling in over the top of us as we decode the cache. Took some great photos but have the answer to the questions in it so wont post. Everyone should come and see this great lookout and log this cache

Found @ 11:30 am.
Arrived at the Coordinates to find a pair of likely lads resting on the table near the Cairn that has the answers to this multi.
We took the info and drove further down the road and walked through the grass to the GZ. Not a hard find but I had to walk carefully to avoid the local reptiles.
