Just tracking my finds

how can i put in the proper co-ordinates. I made the adjustment in the logs but people getting cranky at me for no good reason. I have had enough!

Great cache. Here's a description for all who want one; small, black, magnetic container with a screw top lid. First time I have found a cache without my GPS. Came up here on holidays and was already here when I realised that I didn't have it. found the cache with the help of maps and some common sense. Left Geocoin pinned to the sign. TFTC .

A geocoin in this cache ???

Don't understand the thing with the coordinates. Why not list them straight away?

Found on our way to Port Douglas, but only after wandering around for several minutes in the caravan park which is 330m from the actual cache. Please owner, update the listed coords so finders can go straight to the right location. TFTC.

Geowife kept watch for muggles. Easy find if you pick the right moment

great thanks

We went to Palm Cove this afternoon for a little stroll and dinner in the evening and decided to look for this cache. At first we went blindly to the header coordinates since we didn't read the description. Turned around and went to the new location and couldn't find it at first. After some shopping in the nearby supermarket we read the logs and got some additional hints that lead us to the cache. Thanks for this one, but as others suggested - please update the coordinates and maybe add a little description for what cache size to look. Cheers and greetings from Austria!

Came here on a crowded weekend and hat to look out for muggles all the time. So it took a little bit longer and visited the small shops close by. Thanks a lot!

Our TB follows our journey in Australia! Cheers!

We went to the beautiful palm cove on our way to cape tribulation. This Nano we found mainly with the help of the other logs and the hint. T4TC!

Just a short stroll down from Peppers where we were staying. No probs finding the cache. TFTC

Now I get to look at the description, I realise why I couldn't find it. Suggestion. Make it a multi.

We were quite puzzled by the instructions at first, but after some driving and wandering about things fell into place. Cache spotted, laughed and grabbed it. A very nice beach resort that we wouldn't have visited otherwise, thanks. Logged after returning home to NZ, we had a wonderful holiday in this part of Queensland.

Gday Darleck... mate just wondering what is up with the wrong listed co-ords? As many cachers (such as myself!) do not read the cache pages / logs before looking all we have are the Co-Ords and the Cache Type stored. A tradional should be listed with as accurate co-ords as possible. Off set as this is, if you would like would be a lovely little multi perhaps? Or it could be as simple as updating the co-ords if you want it as a traditional. Sorry to be the cache police but it's just a bit frustraiting as it is. Cheers!

Ooooo Frustraiting! Luckily once I saw the Caravan Park at the listed GZ I got suss, found some net, saw the problem with the GPSr Co-Ords, and quickly located the cache 400m away. Nice little stop heading North to Port Douglas today. Signed and replacd safely, but please see my maintainance log. Cheers from Sydney.

Had a little bit to think about even with the hint, but with another log entry it was easy: It is a nano not a micro! [^] TFTC from Germany .

17:40 - Nice and easy, just right 4 a leisurely Sunday drive. Not too many muggles as it just started to drizzle.T4TC.

As a few people have already logged this cache I thought it was my turn to venture into the WILD. After heading to the wrong co-ords I had a read of the cache notes and realized I was a GOOSE. Thanks for a great CHASE.

Found during our daytrip into Cairns. A lovely spot - not what we had expected.

A nice find while waiting on my hotel room to be prepared. I enjoyed the walk and seeing all the nice sights along the beach front. Knowing where not to look and following the hint with other coordinates made the find pretty straight forward. Though I did have to be stealthy and wait on some muggles to move on. Thanks for the fun! This if my first Australian cache!

An easy find, although it's a nano not micro.

its here

FTF joint find with Terrortorian @ 12:30pm.
Ran into Terrortorian as he was scootering down the road, didn't recognise him at first.
After we had parked and wandered to the GZ we realised that Darlek Caan had struck again and had jumbled the coordinates. It is hard to find a micro in a 350 mtr radius...he he.
We used the clue and went for a walk to the likely spot and found the cache quite easily.
We signed the log and replaced as found.
Thanks for getting me out of the house and for the walk around Palm Cove.

Was heading out to do a bit of a walk and noticed this one on the website.
A bit further than I planned on going as I only had the Aprilla today.
After a windy ride North I parked near the beach and observed a car doing some circle work.
If only muggles (Spinmeout looking for another FTF) looked so innocent as they quartered the search area looking for the best parking spot.
After a brief look at the toilet block, the light poles and the Skip we decided that the cache must be elsewhere.
Reading the description and the clue we walked South until the locality made sense and then it was an easy find. Definitely difficult during business hours but with our natural flair we extracted, noted and resecreted (if that is a word) the cache.
Oh I guess it is worthy of half a FTF if only to ensure that Spinmeout does not find them all.
Thanks for the cache and the challenge of the transposed numbers it definitely slowed us down in our search today.
