DNF

Pulled lots of rocks out but couldn't find it

I reached GZ and started my search at the northern point and just worked my way down and around... I searched a margin as far as I could reach while keeping my feet on terra firma, along a total distance of maybe 5 or 6 metres. Spent about 20 mins in total.

Ha! Ironically, I've missed a D1 here when I just got a 'D4' up the road at River Walk

I might have to try this one again, maybe by daylight. T4TH WaldenClan

Well so far it is still there but it took Mrs.R's eagle eye to spot it. TFTC.

Moved to a better location. And slightly trickier to find.

Put a new container in place.

I confirmed today that this one is gone. I suspect a local in the house across the road. He was watching us when we put the replacement out. Will replace it shortly.

Have to agree with CLAWS. Def nothing in the guard rail

I hate to say it but we couldn't find it. If the hint is accurate then it has been muggled as there was no sign of it there.

New co-ords

Good to go

After the cache went missing again, I decided to move the cache away from the high muggle area.
Cache is now in place at the new co-ords

Its been muggled again. Just disabling while I come up with a better container

Couldn't Find it

Dropped by this cache this morning (having been here before) introducing a coworker to geocaching and found the log and some swag scattered around GZ (no cache). Definitely muggled. I secured the log, it's wet from rain but I'll try and dry it out. Drop me and email and I'll get it back to you ASAP and we can get this awesome cache in a great location back online.

Gfresh

Found it.

Dropped a new container in today and updated the co ords slightly

Checked on this one today and found it is missing. Will replace in the next few days.

Nice spot on a hot day

Went to find trackables but it's no longer there. Don't think it has been logged out. TFTF.

Wasnt very well hidden so hid it abit better when I left it!

Nice day for a quick find

Quick Find, 3rd in our day of caching. TftC, Left Paperclip Chain.

Wonderful day for geocaching Marg and I are enjoying the cool early morning sea breeze

First one for the day with Me and Him. Lovely park. Enjoying Ballina

I found this geocache using the Geocaching Intro App. TFTC!

Indeed a great river view especially with the dolphins putting on a great show. Dropped off a Rugby TB.

Found easily and a perfect spot for a picnic lunch.

Just like the other logs said it was

A quick trip down the road to Ballina for some other matter and I had a hour to spare! What better way to spend it than by doing a bit of searching by the side of the beautiful Richmond River? A brief walk to GZ ,no muggles and I speedily got my hands on that which was to be found. Its all good ! TFTC WaldenClan .

Beautiful spot

Omg bindies wear shoes.

Bindie patch wear shoes!

Found after wandering over from where we were enjoying a spot of afternoon fishing. Many thanks WaldenClan

First find for the day in this lovely area. TFTC

Stayed up late to watch the Ashes and typical English weather canceled play and cost us the Urn. Determined not to make the night a total waste I embarked on a late night/early morning cache hunt to make me feel better, I almost took the 'one free hug' hidden inside too but didn't want to get too greedy. Signed the log now off to bed. TFTC.

Second go at this one. Easy find today, thanks Waldenclan. The garden was looking a lot more loved and no sign of needle wrappers. I wad already with gloves. No sign of any TBs. I have two travelling with me but they just didn't fit in, so, on they travel

TFTC

Foumd with TilleyTB.
A few muggles fishing, but managed to get this one without being noticed. Taking the dog for a walk seems to divert attention. TFTC

Beautiful little park on the river, thanks for bringing us here.

A wet day with lots of puddles. An out of place feature caught our attention, and the cache was directly behind it. TFTC.

Wet weekend made that park very sloshy
TFTC!
Also no trackables available at the moment

Found cache right away, nice spot. Tftc

Easy find. Nice little cache. Did not find the trackables last seen here.

Dropped in just to check on it as I was driving past. I dropped in a coin I forget I had as well.

Thanks for the find

Moved out of the middle of the garden to a more accessible spot.

The cache was where it was meant to be. Have move to a more accessible spot but still in the same vicinity.

I found the 'spot' on dusk however I couldn't find the cache. I dug around (on my own....at dusk.....in a deserted park....and yes....with the needle wrappers) but couldn't find it. I will try again another day, and bring company and...gloves!

Look like this one may have gone. And maybe a new location or cito might be needed. Just disabling until I can check it out.

Eeekkkk - found some needle wrappers and that stopped our search.

We found the park but could not find the cache. jUDY & i poked round that spot for a while butcame up with nothing.Maybe next time.

Nice little park!

stopped for lunch

TFTC

Quite a few muggles around this one, so just be on the watch out. And I'll repeat what's already been said about the needle wrappers.
This cache is in a really pretty place, especially at sunset. TFTC.

2nd cache found in Ballina... Can c what u mean about the needle wrappers so ppl beware... TFTC!

Dropped in a new logbook today. Cache is in good condition. Thx to those who dropped a temp log in.

Found it among the needle wrapers

A quick easy find on the fading light, no muggles around which made it easier. managed to find a spare space on log to sign but really needs more paper, sorry didn't have any with us and we didn't read previous logs as used the iPhone app to locate cache nearest to where we had dinner. TFTC

Not many people here today. There was a note from a muggle about being careful finding this when the fishermen are there. He took up a whole side of the last piece of notepaper with his message. I managed to sign but the next person will need some new paper. Sorry I didn't have any with me. Thanks Walden Clan.

Easy

Stealth required, lots of muggles!

New paper already in. No trackable.

TFTC

Catching up on logging after a long christmas break. This was the start of my push south to home. The traffic was manic as it was another hot day so I had to limit my stops. Took an overnight stop here so grabbed a few caches close by. TFTC WaldenClan. [1512]

Found while on a fishing trip. Log full so could not record.

Hi all. If the next finder could drop a piece of paper in just to get through this week, that would be great. I will get down there on Sunday to do maintenance.
Thanks

Found on way through town. Seems a local fisherman has found it also! There is a note from him on the 28th Dec 10pm. Log is full and needs to be replaced. TFTC

Quick find, in a beautiful place!!
Log is full, need new sheet.

Found it fairly easy. Make sure to dodge the spiders in the dark!

Nice easy find despite the presence of nearby fishing muggles.

No. 302

Quick find with good coords and hint.

Log book is full, so I had to write up the side.

Thanks for the cache.

Log book is full

First find for a day of caching

3rd time lucky on this one. Apologies for not logging sooner.
TFTC

Quick easy find this time round thanks Waldenclan . Log is full but unfortunately we didn't have a replacement with us

As Whint and I arrived at this one I recognised the spot, I even knew there would be a Lions club across the road, I have no idea how as I've never been this far south before.. all a bit odd in my head. The cache though, the place was crawling with muggles, so we decided to leave this one. A bit sad so far from home, but oh well.

Drove near this one but it was super muggle busy so Captain Terror and I made the decision to leave it for another day

Ahh this cache has been my "Ballina nemeses" It had been missing - and ever since, I was always muggled out when I approached.

As they say, safety in numbers! Under the watchful eyes of Team Herbz, Agap2, and Pigwig2, I made a subtle find. The cache is in great condition. A very nice area - as the throngs of visitors to the park can attest to - I am sure

TFTC WaldenClan - very happy to find ally get this one

Nice easy Cache

A beautiful place here. Perfect for a cache.

Tried to do this one hoping no one was looking - heres hoping - lovely park for a quick stop. TFTF

Pretty easy:)

On a lovely Sunday afternoon caching adventure with my muggles. The river front was well packed, but I used stealth to retrieve and replace the cache.

TFTC Waldenclan

Nice sunsets here

It was Council lunch break so we continued on caching around town. Came back just as a council truck of workers were pulling back in! But we were in luck, they moved further along and we dived right in before anyone else decided this was the place to be. TFTC WaldenClan

Geonanna and I headed out from the hotel this morning for a real coffee and grabbed this one on our way. We arrived at GZ and soon had the cache in hand. Great spot by the river - TFTC

Nobody around early on a Sunday morning. Found after a search that took much longer than it should have! Traded ninja for beads. Was cool to see a dolphin swimming by, right along the edge of the river.

Lots of fun, for our first one, can't wait to find more.

Found with geo niece as cover playing fairy-gardens. Tftc

Good place to smell the flowers. TFTC

Found at night!
Didn't see "Going back to Hungary" in there

A great day for doing a spot of caching. Goldielover and I quickly located the cache. What a lovely spot.
