Not sure how accurate these cords are. Looked everywhere but couldn’t find it
Looked for a good while. Brilliant spot to walk the doggo though, he loved it
GPS jumps around a lot, could use a better description of location to help find, nice walk through the bush though
Not sure how accurate the GPS was with this one. Didn’t know where to look with this one.
We looked a lot and couldn't find anything. Gps was a bit scattered. One min we were on top of it the next it was 74m away +/- 60m. .
TFTC! Nice easy find, once I got to GZ, as compass was jumping all over the place
Nice little area I didn’t know existed. Quick easy find so no need to tramp through the bush to find it - let the wildlife have their peace
ugh we searched and searched, tried to catch clues from others’ comments but with a very upset baby and concern over stepping on a snake we just bailed we also parked at probably the furthest possible place from where it is too I’m going to come back
Nice easy find. There were a few pieces in there, a Smiley badge, Nat Geo fridge magnet and a lego creature. Not sure what to do with that stuff so just left it there.
On our way back home after the QOGM events in Barcaldine.
Of course with the one or other cache for a :~)
Thanks to all COs for the caches !

Great QOGM events are over, we are on our way home, now towards Crows Nest.

Hi there muddtrax.
We found your cache **"The Rogers' Trail"** today. (This makes our find count 19509).
Today we cached around Highfields. The secondary aim of the day was to cache along roads we haven't traveled since we became full time grey nomads. Once we've done that we can draw another line on our wall map).
Had we realised that there were so many children's playgrounds on our route we may have re-considered as we don't normally attempt playground caches. We thoroughly enjoyed our stroll through this park though - plenty of nature and no playground equipment in sight.
We found 13 caches today (DNF'd 0) .We thoroughly enjoyed our cache raid. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your 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:** A Smiley Badge.
**Dropped Trackable:** "Geocoin Club October 2008 Geocoin".
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Not sure what was the problem with last searcher, obvious place and well hidden at base. Tftc
This one was too gimmicky to narrow down. GPS co-ordinates do not give a likely spot, they only give a vague whereabouts. I can only compare this to searching for a needle in a haystack... Lack of clues combined with nothing out of place in the area means a DNF from me today
We came upon your cache, rozuz adopted by muddtrax, while travelling from Crows Nest on our homeward journey to Brisbane, after enjoying the 2017 Rural Safari event.
Typical geocachers! Took the hard road in on what we thought was a branch trail. It ended in rather dense bush. Found our way back to a path that was onlt meyers from the cache. Well you know which trail we took back!
The cache though was a wet mess. Don't know if the previous finders didn't close the lid properly but....
So we did running repairs and it is now in good nick. Took the TB.

“Roddy probly took it” haha joking but yeah we had no luck today but will try another day. Was fun hunting.
Cache number 2 on our afternoon drive to Highfields. The smallest child made a swap and we were on our way
A nice little walk with abundant bird life. Cache found all in order. Tnsl tftc xo
Nice walk through the bush on a sunny Easter Monday - easy find when directions followed!
**Smilie #4754**
We decided to take on Toowoomba & surrounds again today as there are SO MANY coloured dots that need to be converted to yellow here! LOL ...
After 'circling the wagons', like wild west Indians, we still couldn't find the best & 'shortest' way to the cache.
We ended up parking near the library & taking the trail in.
Of course it was the longest approach! LOL ...
Quite a pleasant walk & along the way we found what looked like a Geo-trail' heading in the right direction with the compass showing only 63 metres to go.
You guessed it!
The trail disappeared after about twenty metres so we were faced with the choice of a bit of a bush bash or return to the trail & continue from there.
Too hot to extend the trek we opted for the 'straight line' approach & forged ahead.
Minutes later we stumbled upon GZ & a quick find followed.
Made our marks & replaced as found.
Now to find where we left the Geo-Beast?
We looked about & noticed that the actual 'trail' was quite close so we exited along the trail for our return trip.
Several hundred metres later we were relieved to see our vehicle which contained our water supplies! LOL ...
**TFTC muddtrax **
A favourite point for the walk through mature!

**# 14711** Found on our extended 2016 winter escape trek.
Another warm sunny day for a drive around the north side of Toowoomba.
Not many muggles around here today.
Thanks for the cache muddtrax,

Found with Mum as 'Jess & Caro' but now I have my own geocaching profile we are sorting my logs for caches we found together. TFTC!
Found it, took the trackable travel bug, left something and signed log.
What a lovely little place, seemingly hidden away but I've driven past many times. TFTC

**Found my first cache.** I am part of the volunteer parkcare team removing weeds from this reserve on the 1st Friday of the month from the entry beside the library starting at 9am. We hope that some geo helpers may be interested in helping us at the reserve. We have the tools required. Please enjoy the rest of the park. Cheers Greg
No zip lock bag & log damp. Sorry, didn't have anything on me to fix up for you.
After being led astray by GPS, found it. Lovely spot I didn't know existed. Left a star.
Looked at everything. Could not find. Probably us being blind. Have had no luck all day.
Yay! Second one for us today. Parked at the car park near community centre and walked the trail. Thanks for the clue about bridge and gps we found in a few mins.
Ran around in circles trying to find the cache. Eventually I dug a bit deeper and the cache was in my hand. Thanks for the cache!
Unfortunately I didn't find this cache. Could see alot of geocacher activity but no cache
Out and about today doing a caching tour of Highfields - after finding a cache that 'needed maintenance' and was 'confirmed missing', geohubby was on a roll, and at this one he found the geo-trail straight to the cache before I even had a chance to tell him that we were getting close
It was nice to check out the bushland I had noticed while at a mothers group breakup party last year at the Highfields pool
No problems here, all good with this hide - thanks for the cache muddtrax!
