Check on this cache and it wasn't where it is suppose to be presumed lost.

I looked hi and low in and out but had no luck it looks like someone has taken it

Spent some time here and picked up every rock to no avail. Looks like people have been digging in between the big rocks

No luck here. Maybe I did not try hard enough though.

DNF, although I had every stone in hand.

Think it may be missing????

Tricky little hiding spot, well camouflaged!

Had fun finding this one!

Mini Mights kids !

Boom

This was so awesome. It looked so realistic!!!

Had to go twice, it is definitely still there as of 4pm 20/03/16. Don't be discouraged! Great spot!

#7571 Cache Found

Very early start this morning Heading South down towards Decpetion Bay, North Lakes and other places of interest with a view to find some caches and have some fun and adventures. Had the place to myself early this morning for a quick find, Nice cache


Thanks for the great cache and adventure Treking Trev

Found it at 10.20 on 28th February with geo grandson tftc. Find #369 ☺

Nice hide found @ 3.22 pm

While Geodude dived right in, I stood back and contemplated the clue. Found it straight away!

Cool hide. Even though it's the middle of the day no one was about which made it a quick find... Thanks to the hints, lol. TFTC.

Very clever cache

Second time looking for this cache and finally found it. Very good hiding

Not a quick find for us today. We looked and looked but obviously not in the right places. There was a lot of activity in the nearby area and it was so stinking hot. We looked for perhaps 10 minutes and then gave up. Thanks anyway.

Quick find with the geokids. Thanks trekking Trev

That was easy! Not as "hard" as everyone says.

Gave up and got back in the car, then hoped out for one last look and found it!!

Found it after a little bit

Almost gave up, great cache!

Found

Hints weren't helpful, didn't end up finding it

With only a handful of caches left in this area to find, I made my way here to pick up a smiley. Arriving at gz, I was think "Oh great, another one of these." I have an abysmal track record with these types of hides. Nonetheless, I quickly spotted container, signed log and returned as found. Noted hundreds of swarming cache guardians. Great hide TT. TFTC.

What a Veritable, Viable, Vibrant, Visionary, V cache, that finally fills in my needed V for noVember!

Today the area was empty, so the search was easy, but it didn't take long before this V as in my hands.

Thanks

Took a short while to locate. TFTC

TFTC
Found it after a little search but also found a snake hiding nearby too !!

Found it with team Simpson and a snake TFTC

Ignore the pipe

Went for a drive to Deception Bay, and grabbed a few caches on the way.
Searched for a while, but it was eventually located. No muggles loitering.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Treking Trev, for us and others to find.

Found on second visit. tftc

Will try again.

Finally a smilie for this cache.

Tftc

Not my first visit, but with more knowledge. Knew what I needed to find this time.
Placed back into its hide, a little more in cover to protect from weather.

Looked for around 20 minutes, still could not find even after looking at the hint

Thanks for the cache

Clever little case here, logged and put back safe and sound

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there Treking Trev. We found your cache "Valve" at 11:03:00 AM today. This cache makes our find count 11450.
[Blue]
Today was just the sort of day for a sight seeing tour around some of the roads in the local area. We picked a random cache and let our GPS decide our route by going to the "next closest" one.
In our travels we found 5 (and DNF'd 2).
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: The container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt,
Regards
Ian & Penny.[font=Verdana]

Easy find!

Hehe! Found it! Took me a couple of minutes of rummaging around in the dark but I eventually got it. This is my first cache. Totally hooked, will look for more now. Thanks!

Due to family commitments, we had one week without geocaching. So today we went out to get some more smilies, accompanied by my Lone Reindeer and Colorado as Harry Hamster with Ellie Elefant had been dropped off before.

Could have asked my son to look for this cache, as he is working round the corner .... but of course we did it on our own. No muggles as it is Sunday.

Quick find thanks to hint.

Found it!

Our first find!! So cool...

Great container. I have not before seen one of these used as a cache. Took a little while to find because of the unique container.

TFTC 1402# quick park and grab

Quick find with GrannySmith1947, very dry, TFTC

Smilie #2376

Headed north to raid some caches & bring a little more sunshine to our map via conquered smilies!
This was our sixteenth for the day.

Another nice quick find thanks.
The description & hint told the story well.
Log signed & cache replaced as found.

Yay! We Returned! Found it!;) took nothing, left nothing, nothing was there. Logged it. Very nice. TFTC

This was our first Geocach find very cool find thank you we are hooked

Thank you great first find for us.

Great hiding spot.

TFTC one of the cooler caches cheers

Kids loved this one!

This was my first time getting into Geocaching and it took a while to find; but in the end I ended up finding it!

Thanks!

After a couple of DNF reports I checked this one today and replaced after I couldn't find either. All good to go.

Too
Many muggles. No luck this time.

No luck for us with the geokids today

Well named

Nice find

Arrived and had a think about it before finding the cache. Found ok TFTC

Very nicely done. To avoid muggles, don't go during business hours.

Muggles a getting suspicious....had to give up. New to the game, will be back to try again.

Hard to find till I read the logs. Hint makes sense now TFTC

Looked for about 15 mins. Found something that matched the did not look like the others. Nothing there.

Tftc

Nice easy find. Not a muggler in sight. Tftc

This was a surprisingly difficult cache to find. The rick wall isn't particularly big, but the hide is very well executed.
Found at 3.30am in the dark by HotandSweaty.

Awesome find

Good little hiding spot

In Brisbane from Townsville to visit family. This is the closest cache to where we are staying, so an afternoon walk was in order to find the cache. Arrived at the GZ with a pre-conceived idea of what we were going to be looking for ... and we were wrong. Took a few minutes, but we eventually found the prize. TFTC Treking Trev. SL. {#471}. B

The valve was checked off. TFTC

That could have been so much harder, I hate rock walls! But went straight to this one. TFTC

A nice quick find tonight by torch light. I imagine that this would be muggle mayhem during work hours! Thanks for the hide Treking Trev.

Had been here before during business hours, too many muggles. So tonight out caching with the glanville girl, it didn't take long to spot this one.

Out and about with Whint today It took some planning last night to find an area that had sufficient caches we both hadn't found. The place was empty on a Sunday afternoon, except for one young couple in their car It was a pretty quick find here. No idea what the hint meant, but obviously we didn't need it. TFTC, Treking Trev.

Found with IolantheK whilst having a fun day of caching. Parked across the road and made our way to GZ... not sure what the clue meant but the cache was found quickly and all good here

tftc

Very hard!

AWESOME hide!!

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

Tara (9) found this for us (now a huge fan), we did have some clues from friends who had already found this. Very quiet on a Sunday morning, didn't get any strange looks.

Went to have a look this cache is in a public place. Will come back another day

This was a very good one. Took us 4 times going back to it. Suggest going at about 6:00pm you don't get weird looks all the time.

I think it has been taken

We found it TFTC

A nice hide TFTC

This was fun were gonna giveup then my geoboyfriend through a rock back in the hole and found it ;D nice hide

Bit of a hunt and about to go to fight another day and we stood back and bingo! GeoLady had it in hand. TFTC

I hate to admit it but after a couple of unsuccessful visits at night to this one I brought the geoboy before sundown and he had it in hand in moments. I blame the dark not my cache blindness. Great hide. TFTC.
