The local muggles are onto this one so have decided to archive.

We must have crossed paths somewhere zombywoof. I too came for a look and found nothing. A few guys at a house spotted me but left not long after.
TFTH anyway.

Called in today to do some maintenance but it appears to have gone missing. Will replace sometime in the future.

Aaaargh Muggled! So there I was grovelling around in the immediate vicinity when the muggle interrupted my quest ,asking me what I was doing! I mumbled vaguely about looking for an unusual plant but whether I was believed I cannot be sure. I changed tack to a conversation about the nearby trig point. I eventually took my leave and trudged sadly away. This muggle lives very close by and when I return to have another go methinks that I will park my vehicle so as to interrupt the view from the houses to the hide.

No denying the presence of the trigpoint here! Pulled up alongside GZ with Gaz'n'Kab after the steep drive up and in the rain a quick hunt ended with a quick find. Nice views even through the rain today. TFTC zombywoof1954 Smile

This was our final view of Murwillumbah as we left town this morning.
A very narrow road/lane took us up to the lookout, it was made more difficult with a car & trailer parked there. Once at the top it all opened up. A well hidden cache.
Thanks zombywoof54

TFTC,
So close to where we are visiting. This Cache has allowed me a chance to grab a find on a day that will be very buisy and visit a group of trackables as I approach 6 months with a find for every day.
 
18-Aug-12
Albibops and I were headed down south for the week and were passing by this cache so why not stop in and grab it.
pulling the car up near GZ I noticed a man walking his 2 dogs....... Great now we have to wait till he moves on. As we got out of the car the man asked us if we were looking for the geothingy? He said he had met a few people looking for it as he lived in the house right there!
And interesting event for us.

As this is a T1 D1 there was no way that we were going to walk up the hill. After striking out on two possibles entrances we finally found the entrance and made the quick "drive by" find.
Nice views

On looking at cache name, one would almost believe that the location was an AFL ground. Not the case!
Pity that survey markers don't give co-ordinates to enable us cachers to verify the accuracy of our GPS receivers.
Good cache, good hide and magnificent view. What more could one want?

Found with someone who lived in murwulimbah for a number of years, but didn't know this spot existed!! Easy find and great views TFTC Cool
 
03-Dec-11
We missed the turnoff up teh hill as the GPSr had the wrong street name. It would seem like a very pleasant spot to live way up here in the clouds.

We spotted the trig mark easy enough and figured there must be a GCA smiley in that, so took a photo.

Diane was able to find cheap airfares to the gold coast on a weekend that all three members of Team Crackers could organise time off. After the booking was confirmed we realised it was the start of schoolies so we decided on a Southern Queensland / Northern New South Wales inland assault instead. We had a little trouble finding the correct road to access this one as we missed the road in and the GPSr telling us to walk through peoples houses. So we retraced our steps and found out where we had gone wrong and had no sooner finished making comment that it would be tight if car was coming from the other direction and lo and behold as if on cue one appeared coming down the hill. Once at the top we were impressed with the views afforded here, the local residents certainly have a great vista to wake up to. With nobody else in sight the cache was quickly located and the log book duly signed.
Thanks zombywoof1954 for showing us this great vantage point.

Sarah (7 year old )found this one. Nice find for the kids. Thanks.

what a great view, and without this hobby we would not have had the privledge of taking in this view. TFTC
 
29-Oct-11
Couldn't believe where the GPSr was taking me, but followed it to GZ and well, as you know, there's a cache there. TN/LN/SL. It must be fun for the garbage truck driver to get in and out of that street. I found it a cosy place in my HiAce van.
 
01-Oct-11
Our #3 cache for today, and ever!
 
24-Sep-11
Interesting area. Took us a bit of time finding the park as the driving details had us in Eyles Lane instead of Myrtle lane so DO take the 3rd on the left BUT not into Eyeles Lane and you have it.

Another great view of Murwillumbah from here. Good clue and easy find.

This cache was on a round trip from Currumbin through the Currumbin Valley to Murwillumbah and back via Tweed. Glorious day with great views. Highly recommended.

Another hidden park on top of another hidden M'bah hill Smile
My own trail to the top started at the bottom and led me along narrow lanes and up pathways that only the locals would know existed Big Grin
On top of it all was a delightful patch of mown greeness with lovely views over the roof tops [^]
Past the mark I found my mark and left me mark on the logbook Razz

Thankfully, the TomTom lead me up the right way straight up to this one. The area was abandoned tonight, making the hunt fairly easy. Quiet as a church mouse, I made the find and signed the log. I picked up the trackable as well. Some nice views from here. TFTC zombywoof1954 Smile

Set out today to do a loop out to Murwillumbah, Uki, Stokes Siding and back to Tweed heads. This was #9 cache on the route but our 7th find. GPS led me to a road below the park showing the cache about 90m away up the hill. Climbed the path and steps to find the park at the top as well as road access. Checked out the TP and found the nearby cache. SL TFTC here. cloudglider
