Attended with 2nd Wauchope Scouts. No luck finding this cache, having found it previously I concur with the previous log, that it appears to have been muggled.
Found plenty of places around the log it could have been, afraid to say i think its been muggled.
Travelling through the area on the way home home home from the Sunshine Coast, picking up a few cache's along the way. Thanks to thevogeles.
TFTC,
Last day of our quick trip to Queensland.
Found this on our return trip as I attempt to achieve a 3 per day average for 2015. Not sure if I will get there.
Visited trackables.

Found it with my sister on the way back to her place at Kundabung after a trip to the Bago Maze. Threw out some rubbish "swaps" - a potato chip, a rubber band, a religious pamphlet, a single faded old sock and a used hair elastic. There's a card in the cache imploring people to only trade up with swaps - I wonder what these cachers took that they thought was of less value than this junk which they left.
09:45 Found it quickly, but just as two car loads of State Forest workers pulled up 10 metres from GZ for their morning tea. TFTC
Heading towards Coffs Harbour, we stopped by here for a quick find. Cache was filled with loads of little goodies.

it was raining and the geokids were disappointed we couldn't play in the nearby playground

sometimes, going with the wife is really embarrassing. Whilst I'm standing there trying to set the gps the good lady calls out I've found it. Nice hide.
Lots of swaps for the geokids here which is great considering the nearby playground. Tftc
We were on our way to Sydney for our church conference so I had planned some caches close to the highway on the way down so we could break the journey.
We had the luxury of making it a 3 day journey so we could visit our daughter in Coffs and then have a nice stay in Tuncurry which the children loved.
My plan included caches that would fit with the Well Travelled Cacher 500 Challenge as we only needed 13 to complete it!
This was a nice quick one as I had parked the car within metres of GZ, walked over, spotted the hide and grabbed the prize soon after that!!

Swellerfungus, Crookedpete and I hit the road to cache our way from Brisbane to Gloucester NSW and back, picking up some specific caches along the way. On the homeward leg now and we stopped of here to make a find to help my travelling companions complete a distance challenge they are working towards. We had to wait for a mountain biker to ride past before we made a quick find and returned to the car to continue our long journey home. TFTC.
Final day of a weekend road trip with SeffnJarah and Swellerfungus.
And what a busy weekend it was too! The tally board included a few scratches, 11 hours sleep, 1760 kms driving, a dozen eggs, a couple of kilograms of bacon, 73 finds (including 1 event, 2 souvenirs, 2 letterboxes, 3 earthcaches, 4 completed challenge caches, 3 T5's) and a completed DT grid. Best of all, there was whole bellyful of laughs and lots of good humoured banter.
I had wondered about the cache name, but on approach all became clear. After waiting for a biker, we made the find. This cache will help me qualify for a local challenge cache in SEQ
Thanks for the cache, thevogeles

Out and about with CrookedPete and seffnjarrah as we head south for a caching weekend of high difficulty and terrain ratings, as well as a run to Taree to grab the 1.9/1.9 D/T rating challenge. We also need some caches for another challenge that requires a cache hidden every 10klms from home. Both CP and I needed a lot to complete the challenge, and this one fitted the bill nicely.
We pulled up at GZ and as I got out of the car I could hardly recognise SNJ as he was dressed like he had just popped out of a Country Road magazine. He had removed his sweater and placed it casually over his shoulders and tied a loose knot of the sleeves on his chest. He was quite fetching, and though I think he would have rathered be at the polo, he did end up finding the cache. Pip Pip tally ho old boy. Cheers,What!

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there thevogeles. We found your cache "HVMTBR" at 4:39:21 PM today,. This cache makes our find count 9887.

We are trying to log at least one cache every day, so we can add to our streak of "Most Consecutive Days Cached", which we started on New Years Day 2014. Our route today took us past some really wonderful & scenic locations.
We thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon trek around the area today. (Please excuse our boilerplate logs though.)
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: 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: Novelty Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.[font=Verdana]

Found at 1300 while on a geocaching trip in the Port Macquarie area. A quick find removed some rubbish from the cache. TFTC.

A nice quick find although the cache is on an Ants nest and they were not happy when we moved the container to retrieve the log

# 4515. Robmc and I are heading south from SW Rocks to Lorne and making a few little detours on the way. This good-sized container is nicely concealed in its hiding spot but we did manage to find it quickly. Signed our names and now onwards for a few Cairncross caches. TFTC
A day's travelling with few caches down the coast with Bettyboo.
I don't think I have ever seen a clubhouse for Mountain Bike Riders any where else. We were wondering what might be inside - a few practice jumps, a windy narrow track to the toilets?
Fortunately, the playground was unoccupied today, so we had a quick find.
Thanks, Robmc.

Thought we might have had difficulty at this one as there was a muggle vehicle parked at the clubhouse with someone carting stuff inside. Fortunately the hide was just far enough away that he didn't seem to even notice that we were nearby. A quick find at 7.30am. Thanks.
Found during Ride for Cancer MTB. Come along next year everyone and raise money for a great cause.
On our way back to Port Macquarie and couldn't just drive on past this. Jumped out and the co-ordinates said '0' so it doesn't get any quicker than that. TFTC thevogeles.
Heading back to town after doing some of the Cairncross series. Nice easy find. TFTC
After 3 great days in Port McQuarry we were headed north again to Stanthorp with The Drovers picking up some caches along the way. his was the first for the day. If that is the club rooms this must be a big club, it is not that popular down south. There was a car parked near GZ but it turned out to be empty so we had a nice easy find.
Thanks theogeles for showing us this area.
Thanks theogeles for showing us this area.
Out and about for a bit of an explore so detoured to this one. A nice bit of bush and a quick find once we got the right end of the stick. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC
Even tho I'm sure the previous finders would have put the lid back on the cache container, it was slid half off, and quite exposed. Put the logbook in a Ziploc bag.

A spur of the moment decision had Bruce and The Drovers heading out to do some caching with Grahame Cookie. Quick find done in the cover of darkness.

Oh dear, missed out on catching up with Moosebreeder. Somewhere else maybe.
Could see the container as I approached, so tried to use a bit of natural camo on replacing it.
Not much with me today that would fit. TNLN

Here today for the Australian mountainbike orienteering champs. The event centre was only metres from the cache, so it was a quick find before I went out on my course. Must have brought me luck as I went on the win my grade. TFTC
Found at 10:45 on my way north. I imagine this could be a busy place on weekends, but no one around today so it was a quick find

I was really surprised by the size of the clubhouse here, mountain bike riding most be popular in this area.
And the cache was a nice quick find during a break in the rain.
Thanks . Maybe next time we are in the area, we'll have bikes & be able to ride around here.
