Tried to replace this a couple of times now, it seems a local Muggle simply doesn't want it there

26-Sep-15
A surprising view I didn't know existed. TFTC
 
21-Aug-15
Now we know what you mean by don't go over the rail!! Did not take long to find the well hidden cache and unfortunately it was a misty view due to the rain this am! It amazes us as to how far houses go up a hill at times but guess it does give them good views!
TFTC Tui65 and bringing us here to see the misty view!
 
15-Aug-15
What a lovely view. A pretty bug was hinting to the position Smile

18-May-15
Drove to it in my non geocach sister mobile many thanks from nz
 
05-Apr-15
First find. Was an easy one after reading hints
 
06-Mar-15
While visiting my geocaching sister we decided to spend some time caching.
Thanks for the hide.
 
The hardest part was standing up there in the wind, & getting the log book out but easy find
 
Easy
 
31-Dec-14
We do believe that this cache should have two different terrain ratings: the one allocated by the CO for those arriving at GZ in their geomobile and another one for those who are silly enough to walk up to GZ pushing a couple of geo kids in a pusher. An easy find and a nearly as difficult descent back to the geomobile. TFTC and the great view we were introduced to - worth the walk.
 
29-Dec-14
Found a while back forgot to log tftc
 
06-Nov-14
Found by geo-student. Very attractive. TFTC

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there Tui65. We found your cache "GeoWifes Idea" at 11:31:00 AM today.
This was our 6th cache find in a caching run of 12 Finds & 0 DNFs today. (So this now makes our find count 9597.)
[Blue]
Today's cache run was primarily to add to our current streak of "Most Consecutive Days" cached, (which has been going since New Years Day 2014.) Our "next closest" route took us to some wonderful & scenic locations.

We were travelling in the wrong direction to make the turn, but aquick "U" turn fixed that.Big Grin
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent. (We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.)
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

22-Aug-14

14-Aug-14
TFTF we went hunting with torches and geokids and geohubby and found it .. Well hidden ...signed and put back
 
14-Aug-14

20-Jul-14
Out and about Gladstone, new to town what way to get to know your way around than go on a geo cache hunt. TFTF cache is in good condition signed log.
 
08-Jul-14
Great hiding spot!
 
07-Jul-14
Admittedly, I didn't look too long, but someone in a car was looking at me funny and driving away quite slowly, so I decided to get away before someone came to tell me not to jump. I've done a few caches in similar locations before and, while I didn't have any luck in this, I'm hoping for luck next time I give it a go
 
01-Jul-14
Nice view! A little bit of searching! But easy location!
 
22-Jun-14
Nice and easy - beautiful view I'd never seen too! Smile
 
17-Jun-14
Tftc nice and easy
 
05-Jun-14
We were at the location, looking for over an hour today and found nothing. Any hints ? Or anything lol
 
18-May-14
That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.
 
21-Mar-14
Parked impulsively and thought I would stroll up 90m or so. It became steep and very long grassy. A change of plan saw me able to park very, very close. Great spot. TFTC
 
18-Mar-14
TFTC! After pushing the geokids up the hill in the pram, we met a lovely council worker near GZ, was doing a great job weeding the garden. Had a quick chat, then he moved along and we signed the log. Beautiful sunny day for it too.
 
09-Feb-14
A nice easy find for a Sunday afternoon
 
19-Jan-14

16-Jul-13
Took a bit of getting to this one with a few U turns. We certainly weren't going to climb up that hill! A quick find once there of a type that we've come across many times before. Thanks.

18-Jan-13
Found it with Geobrother, wasn't that hard to find.
 
18-Jan-13
Nice easy find while out with Geobrother, not a bad view from here either, and the cach container seems to be making its own camouflage if you know what i mean.
TFTC!
 
19-Nov-12
Found while visiting family in Gladstone. We are visiting from Townsville.
Nice cache with a nice view.
 
17-Nov-12
Able to disappear to Central QLD for family visit over a couple days ... and able to sneak out for a little geo-therapy. An overnight visit to Gladstone brought about this little visit:

Of course I took the hard way up to this before discovering there's an actual road up there. Left Mrs Prime (muggle-wife) in the aircon while I braved the heat for a thankfully quick find after the walk. Cheers

Thanks for placing this cache, Tui65. Found in good condition.

With the caravan parked at the Calliope Rest stop we took off in the car heading towards Gladstone to pick up some caches. A beautiful day and an interesting assortment of caches kept us entertained. Nice view and some nice houses up here.

Out for a drive with the kid
Find No 11 for today

TFTC
 
05-Mar-11
Of course it was Geowife's idea any woman can see that! And to organise a guard of wasps to watch over the cache is a brilliant idea. No problem retrieving the cache and replacing same as they know what their job is. We also loved the view from there.(Pat and Bill from Bundaberg) TFTC SL Cool
 
16-Jan-11
Found with Dotty_Loves_You.

Was nice to finally see a sunset together. The wasps weren't so great =P

TFTC!
 
16-Jan-11
Got to this one just in time to see a stunning sunset over Gladstone. Mine and Bean Caching's first sunset together =) Got some lovely photos.

This was the 8th and last cache of the day. Our last cache in Gladstone infact as we leave for Tully soon. Great finish to an eventful day that saw me get a flat tyre on my bike so we had to walk 2 hours home! =P All good fun.

Bean Caching walked straight up and plucked this one. Some wasps have taken a liking to this one and built their nest almost touching it. Didn't notice until he had grabbed it! Putting it back was a bit of a task as the wasps could see us coming!! Cheeky blighters.

TFTC. Really great spot for one at sunset =)

Dotty xoxo

A nice quick find and great views to be had. TFTC
 
28-Nov-10
This was probably the best view we'd had of Gladstone the whole weekend Smile Nice, undisturbed little hunt and a fairly fast find, followed by a discussion on how much fun I could have had as a kid on a bike here. Good idea, geowife! TFTC! ='.'=
 
Why? because we could!! LOL
