By bristracker on 06-Oct-10. Waypoint GC2G99T

Time to say goodbye to this fellow after good service.

No luck! Pretty sure we found the spot...

Team of 8 looked for 20 minutes with no joy! Thanks for the mail man

Searched high and low for this one but the geo mojo wasn't happening this arvo ....

Cache found on ground, open. Restored to elevated position. Seems in good condition. First cache evah! Kids having fun.

Cutest little gifts inside!

nice and easy cache found in seconds once reached GZ TFTC Found with The Hair Bear

Great Find with JJBoards

Parked on the opposite side of the creek. A short walk over footbridge had us at GZ.
Found without too much of a hassle as late afternoon and no muggle activity whatsoever.
TFTC, Took Nothing Left Nothing.

Nice spot. Added a new log book to the container as the first one was full. TFTC

Easy

Cool spot

48th find of 69 found in during the week of my holidays on the Gold Coast.

Out today to clear the Southern area from accommodation. Nipped into here almost more focussed on the local facilities, but a nice quick cache was also relieving.

Thanks for placing this cache, bristracker. Found in good condition.
{Overall find #1427}

Inspected this one with Aussie Liahona today. We found the container itself nice and dry but the cord was no longer of any use. It has now been re-tied to the bark of the tree and should work satisfactorily for some time to come.

TFTC. On our 3rd attempt we found it. It wasn't in the right spot it was on the ground and the log book is now full. The zip lock bag wasn't done up and the log book is now damp. Took frog left American quarter.

Our first find - how exciting. it was the best geocach ever

Nice easy find. I did have to wait for a few Muggles to move on before swooping in to retrieve the Cache. FTFC.

Tried to walk down the river from Talle Ho without luck. Retreated back to the car for a quick trip back down the road to the GZ. Took advantage of the cafe across the road to a caffine fix after find the cache. TFTC

Out and about down the coast way today grabbing a few caches.
Another cache that you can park quite close to. A quick grab. I took it back to the car to sign. As others have said, the log book is almost full.
The cache is dry. Thanks for the cache.

Easy find on a wet day, log is just about full. SLTNLN TFTC

Nice and easy find, good solution for the vertical challenged people!

checked this one out while down here to do some of the Paradise Series caches
I see the tree has been damaged, probably struck by lightning, but the cache is still in place, altho its umbilical cord is damaged
I've left it in place because it is a clue to the cache hide
nice new toilets here since I placed the cache

We went out with Bubblegum14 and found this one. We thought that it might have been hidden to well, that you can't see it, lucky for us it was a lucky guess. TFTC.

I tried for this cache back in November 2011.

I remember it well but couldn't find it, so on our way to Tugan Hill caches I thought I'll try again with 2 extra helpers from another team.

I didn't even get far from the car and cowpatty 3 team said found it. Oh that's where it was. Nope I certainly wasn't looking there last time, silly me.

TFTC

Back down south today so I planned my available time and this one was fourth.

I had a stupid mishap walking into the driveway barrier within 20 metres of leaving my car on the way to my first for today. Didn't fall over didn't scrape my shins just one very very painful strained muscle.

I was grateful that I didn't have so far to walk for this one as I was still hobbling along determined to still make a good time out of a bad start.

I had aborted attempts on number 3 today as it seemed as if I had to cross a creek.

Nice quick find.

Thanks bristracker TFTC SL TNLN

Found on the way home from work. TFTC

Found this one after a little walk across the adjacent bridge. Found very easily in slightly drizzling rain.

This cache formed a part of my shotgun trip to Queensland. At the last minute I got asked to come to Queensland to do some work. So I made the most of it and bagged myself 100 odd caches while in the state. First grabbed a few caches in Roma before flying into Brisbane Airport where I hired a car at around 1PM. I then cached most the time till I caught a plane the next afternoon from the Gold Coast to Victoria. At one stage I took a power nap in the back of the car for about an hour to recharge when I was feeling a bit flat. Beside that it was not till I got on the plane did I have a chance to sleep. There was very little sleep had. When I got back to Victoria I made sure I grabbed one last cache so I ended up getting a cache in 3 Australia states in one day.

Took us a few minutes to find but quite easy. Great hiding spot! T4TC.

Mr Gap had dropped me off for a spot of business then took off - came back later & we needed to come back to find this one a nice spot to visit and a bit of history as well TFTC

Spent a fair bit of time looking for this one without much luck. Read the clue...hmmm, didn't really narrow it down, then some past logs... still no idea, returned with Ms Wig to help, then read the cache page!! ah!! found it straight away.

Nice spot here and clever little hide!! Thanks BT.

This was a lovely little park. We had initially tried to walk to it from the north after completing another cache, but had to hop in the car and drive around instead. After a little search we spotted the clever hide and although not really needing the aid, we decided to pull it anyway. Thanks bristracker for the cache.

nice and easy,
gps took me out into the water,


!!!13!!!

Sneaky hide. Found it

We were here on the 2nd hiding a GCA Frog (GA3994 - Fiona Longlegs) and searched briefly for the cache - unfortunately not long enough since we had to be elsewhere. Did not find it then.

Came home and read the description more closely and since we were again in the area and did not have to be anywhere quickly took the time to really look. The GPS and hint were suggesting a a different spot to the correct Ground Zero, but then that depends on interpretation. As I said early the hints in the description saved the mailman (and our bacon).

Thanks for the cache.

PS There are rumours that either the Gold Coast trainline extention or the widening of the nearby M1 will 'wipe out' the train bridge (now a pedestrian/cycle bridge). I hope this nice little park stays intact.

This one took a lot longer than I thought it should. Probably because I began looking in the wrong spot. After a couple of muggle left I started a new search and soon found the cache.
took Cito TB.

thanks

Nice quick find and enjoyed the walk over the bridge watching the fishing boats. Only one TB which I swapped. Thanks.

New bag req

Walked in from the nearby shopping village. Great cache. Didn't spot geocoin, dropped off tb. Thanks, enjoyed the walk and the cache.

Muggled out by a young man in the park who stared at me all the while I was there, then walked up to me and asked if I knew anything about the illuminati. I told him "No! and I don't want to know", and I was out of there!

Took my daughter looking for a cache or two before heading back north to home. I look and looked and she caught small crabs on mud flats and wanted to take them home as pets. After no luck from blind mum and say no we can't take the small crabs as pets I gave up as I was now the only one out of this team searching and not much fun on my own. I'll try again maybe with picnic and hubby for afternoon outing.

This one had KateRX and I wandering around for a few minutes, looking in logs and under shrubs. Then I spotted something that looked a bit out of place. There it was.
Signed the log and left a geo coin.
TFTC bristracker

Noo82 and I started out looking in the wrong spot. Thought it would have been there for sure with all the little nooks and crannies! Found it soon after, took nothing, left nothing. TFTC

Parked across the river and strolled to this one. What a pleasant way to do it. In fact, it was such a pleasant stroll, I almost forgave 'karen' for trying to get me to drive across the footbridge to GZ. Had some luck and found the cache immediately. TN/LN/SL and wandered back to the van. Popular spot for fishing, launching and generally having a relaxing Sunday afternoon. Thanks for showing it to me.

Went straight to it. SL. Replaced with some leaf litter cover to better conceal from council muggles. Tfth

Teeny's first 'actual' find with the gps. Go me

Nice little hide and park. Thanks for the cache & height assistance bristracker!Left a pencil as there wasn't one in the cache, and a fridge magnet, TN.

Nice hide,found after looking everywhere else it could have been.TFTC.bristracker.

Found at 5.09pm, Nice mud and crabs
TFTC

Dropped the wife off to do some shopping, and i would do some caching for a few hours

TFTC

Had to dodge the nearby workers

Number 3, yippee.

Joint effort with Smatty. Nice hide. TFTC

TFTC. We're lichen it lots. Nice hide. Took key ring and left gold pirate coin.

A fun find, nifty hiding! Left New Zealand and Japan earthquake commemorative geo coin and took ring. TFTC

TFTC...a lovely day and a sneaky little hidey hole

Vertically challenged aid was tucked away and as toilet block is being refurbished we thought it wise and followed suit. Had a very nice lunch at the health food shop opposite after signing the log. NINO TFTC

Luckily there was no one working on the fenced off facilities so we could search undetected. The assistance for the vertically challenged was spotted before the cache so it made for a quick find. Handy! TFTC

I guess the cold, wet weather of yesterday kept people away from this little park today. The cache was quickly to hand and signed. TFTC

2:42. Nice hide. There is some improvement work being carried out in the park but the cache still still safely accessable. You just have to walk a bit further

tftc

Forgot to log this one - quick and easy find

Took the dog for a walk and decided to stop by. Nice spot!

Found this one after a quick walk.

Nice easy find - cleverly hidden. tftc. No pen in the cache so you will need to take your own.

Easily found with info given, even on the rainy day we choose to go.
Made a swap, Thanks for the cache

Easy find with no muddy feet. TNSLLN, TFTC

Found today with Fizz62 while getting lost looking for another cache. Glad to say we found both. TFTC.

found today with Goodlookerz, Fizz62

Quite a sneaky hide after originally searching the wrong spot, the ever persisting rain made for a wet park.
Thanks Bristracker.

First GC for father-son team. Great way to keep a 5 yr old busy on the holidays. Thanks heaps.

Found it No. 3314 ... quick find ... had to b as it was pouring ... TNLN ... TFTC

All scratched up, mozzie biten and jandles covered in mud..... but found it!! One of your clues was a tricky one, due to previous cachers, however we missioned, swapped and signed the cache. Thanks

Pleased to find the cache on a really nice holiday in Brisbane & Gold Coast. Found the cache quite quickly - nicely done. SL Thanks for the cache.

It is a bit odd to turn up to GZ to find a smoldering campfire at it! Someone had cooked their tinned tuna. The clown had not extinguished said fire well enough though. I soon made short work of it. Then onto more important matters - finding a cache. This was located with a minimal amount of fuss and in good condition. TFTC bristracker - the water looked really nice today - particular since it was so hot

A nice find today, T Turtle L Lizard TFTC

Nice little hide and well placed for easy extraction even with muggle proliferation here. TFTC Aussie L.

The hint still leaves many possible places. Looked in all likely spots and didn't find the cache. Should have read the cache notes properly before giving up..... BTW this is hard to actually get to from the motorway heading south!!! LOL

Nice quick pick up at a cool little park in the afternoon sun. TFTC bristracker

Neat little park. L turtle to enjoy the mangroves.

=) on my way to my favourite area around.... love it !! TFTC !! TNLN SL =)

I had fun finding this cache for my 1st time, (I have been caching with luckydipper many times but only just registered)
it was not too hard but it took me along time to find.becuase the iphone app kept sending us in other directions
TFTC

Found with lilmissie, my iphone app was leading me astray due to the tree cover, so switched to gps and found very quickly. Took TB left Pirate TB. TFTC

A nice quiet spot and an easy find. Fourth find for the day for Chimpa and me.

Took TB (looks like the FTF for this TB).

Found this cache with Hugo07 and signed the logbook.
Thanks for the cache.
Drop T.B.

Took my two toddlers to the park. While they were swinging on the spring-animals I found the cache - nice easy find. The thong key-ring looked cool, but I forgot to bring a trade along.

Also said hi to Clarence the pig, but with my kids I thought it would be safer to leave him there.

I decided to head South on an after work cache hunt.

This new cache took me to a quiet little park and there is also a biggish concrete pedestrian bridge crossing the river nearby. There also seemed to be a bit of a trail to the right after you crossed the bridge and went under the other bridge...but it didn't really go anywhere that exciting apart from along the side of the creek for a bit. It looks like a good spot for fishing and I did grab a few photos of the bridge. (as I tend to do)

Before I went off wandering around I actually found the cache....After looking in a few wrong spots I spotted something that led me straight to the caches' hiding spot. TFTC Bristracker

I signed the log and dropped in a trackable pig geo-coin called "Clarence".

I grabbed the $1 scratchie card and tried out my luck. Sorry no joy... no match on this scratchie. I might have to return the favour and drop a scratchie in another cache.

Arrgggg so close to a FTF. Would have been our 1st. Lovely spot a bit tricky to remain incognito. GeoToddler left her little flip flop key ring. Took other key ring. Interested in the outcome of the scratchy, who ever swaps for it let us know how it went. TFTC
