I disabled this Cache because I had reports that it had been lost to a bush fire. but then cachers started to find it again. I am away from the area for some time and will not be able to check it. So the best option is to archive it
 
29-Mar-17
It appears that this cache has been taken out by a bush fire I'll have to get my proxy to check on it on their return.

I think, judging by previous DNF's, that this cache has not survived a bushfire that's gone through here....
 
04-Feb-17

Slipped in under the cover of darkness but the stars didn't shine so bright. Decided to come back again, in the openness of light. Found this cache hiding here full of swaps and treasure galore, in the car and off we head in search of treasure more.

Arriving at final location, I ruled out all the obvious locations. Then, as the hint suggested, I started looking in less obvious locations and quickly spotted the container hiding away. Log signed and everything returned as found. TFTC TT.

It was a nice quiet night and I was passing through, so I thought I might grab a few geocaches whilst making a short detour home.

After following the GPS, I was quickly finding a place to park the car. With my torch in hand and GPSr in the other, I quickly slipped off into the bush. After a little looking around, there was one place that just stood out and was crying out that there was a geocache there.

With a look over here, look under there and a look around here, there was one area that just looked a little out of place. On closer inspection my suspicions were confirmed, as there was a geocache just waiting there for me.

So I sat in the dark and had a quick look over the geocache. I got out the log and added my name to the list of others before. Just as I was sealing up the geocache, I could hear some rustling in the bush behind me. With that, I quickly put the geocache back home and bolted to the car.

Who knows what that sound was, but I know that I wasn't going to stay around to find out!

Thanks for this geocache Treking Trev. All is in good order here.

Camped at Caboolture for a few weeks, and headed out to enjoy the beautiful weather.
There was a good of variety of hides, some a little tricky.

This cache was found after a short search, and in good condition.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Treking Trev, for us and others to find.

Heading north on a return visit to this area to collect a costume for the upcoming medieval banquet. This is one of the caches I found along the way.

Arriving at gz I thought i wouldn't need much more then the name for this one! And indeed once i had found the hugest log I soon had this one. Tftc. Recovered and returned whilst making a small swag trade. Magic cards for a bookmark.
 
21-Jun-15

Out for the day with melting meerkats, McCutieBumm & theweirdone.

After climbing into what I can only describe as a snake den/ wombat hut and finding nothing McCutieBumm found it 2 metres away. Great cache, although I now smell fondly of dirt and dead leaves. It's all about the adventure...
