As there has been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it has been a number of months since the last owner note I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 28 days), just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

I found this strewn about ground zero, picked it all up and placed it where I thought it should be, I did not read the log of it being disabled. found the cache so am logging it,

Found on my way home.tftc

Due to consistant muggle interference... moving our cache and taking it's contents... we need to disable cache and come up with anti-muggle plan Our apologies for the trackable being muggled and stolen, damn muggles!

Maybe a muggle had moved this one as it was in plain site and no sign of TB left on 24/11/2012 by Willis007. Signed and relocated to fit clues and hide.

Found with geoson this morning while out and about with brownsnakemob.

Great area, after reading the hint on the way there, I spotted the likely gz straight away. iPhone took Geoson to another section, then to the correct gz.

Took TB, left TB

Thanks for the cache cronfind - all is well with it.

My skills must be getting better. Followed the compass and identified the likely spot and bingo! Left a TB.

After a few issues of muggles interferring... it was with regret that our cache had to move... not very far though... still great views and a perfect picnic spot

Found with Bedmaker while up this way for the day.

Found with Tassiegirl13,
This was a nice area this afternoon with only a slight breeze blowing.
One muggle was out in front fishing so we nabbed this one while he was busy casting his line out.
This is the first time we’d ever been here so we made a mental note to maybe come back with the caravan one weekend.
TFTC.

This one was a nice easy one with a awesome beach view...lots of dead bluebottle jellyfish washed up on the beach. Found with captain terror and whint and bad dal

TFTC:)

Out in the area, heading to Bribie and grabbing what we could on the way in... hanging out with Captain Terror & Gambler2000

3rd on our list today and had a bit of GPS bounce which led us a little astray before actual doing some cache note reading and realising where we were meant to be didn't take us long to find once we got to GZ

Somewhere deep, deep in the dark depths of my poor memory is visions of camping at the campground across the road from this cache as a very young lad with the family. Even in my lifetime the area has developed but I feel still a quiet seaside town. I even have a mighty scar across my knee from a buster on my bike in that campground. It's funny what memories spring to mind at times.

I was with Whint for the hunt here today and my, what a beaut spot. Initially my GPS wanted to visit the neighbours backyard, but soon changed its mind and made more sense. We poked around a few spots but it wasn't until some previous logs were checked that we narrowed the search and the cache was found. It is still under some of the grassy plants at the posted co-ords, but the hint doesn't line up anymore. TFTC cronfind, a great spot for a cache and thanks for bringing me back here

My plan to find the caches at either end of Beachmere, which had been going so well, came unstuck due to muggles occupying the nearby table. So I wasn't able to find this cache. TFTH cronfind

DNF No. 5 in the day. [xx(]

Ok so thiswas a easy find as it was laying in the middle of the garden. We did stash the cache. If you stand at the closest table and chairs and look to the water to the left under a grass type plant.
Tftc

Please see attached found log. Might need putting where it should be.

Found while caching with Will.I.Am.elia & Co.


TFTC

I see from previous logs that this has been a victim of cache creep before

So it was any easy find for us

TFTC ...[^]... cronfind

Our very first GC

Found it quite easily after a brief look around. Lovely spot.

Out and about in the Bribie Island area picking up some caches. Thought we were going to DNF on this one as we looked around the likely place with no luck and we were just about to walk away when geohubby extended the search and came up with the cache. We returned it where we found it, just away from our GZ.

TFTC

Coming back for second time, this time with paf, still didn't find it. We think it's been muggle.

Found on a day of caching to Bribie Island
Found the cache laying in the open,after signing it we returned it to an area which resembled the clue.
We have never been to Beachmere before.

11:25 #24
Had to wait for a cpl of muggles to evaporate before a quick find and sign. Tftf

Ok , that one should have been easier. Gps was all over the place with trees

TFTC

Found with 1 of the Marsh Frogs on a cold and windy overcast day.

This is a great little spot to sit and admire the view. Tide was very high, but the water was calm. Found the cache and spent a while appreciating the location. Thanks for bringing me to this spot. It's gotta be nearly 50 years since I visited Beachmere. I remember bitumen roads, there was a house or two, but mostly I recall a one-armed man pulling crabs out of a pot and tying them and me getting stung by a jellyfish ... funny what memories you find sometimes .

Out and about for some epic night caching with Brightskies and ayepeacee. This was my third find for the night and just starting to get into night mode. I looked where my GPS placed me and came up with nothing, widening my search I soon had the real GZ in sight. And then after some physical labour I had cache in hand.

TFTC cronfind

Out with RaceyT. The kids loved this cache. Swapped a pink chicken for some stickers. A good find

A great day for caching. No one around. Good hide. Kids loved the 'treasure' - couldn't decide the one they wanted to take. Finally decided on the furry pink chicken. TFTC

Found @ 0930

I was working down Beachmere and Bribie today so it was the perfect chance to add a few more smileys to the map

I parked in the carpark near Gz and wandered over to start my search. Mmmmmm this isn't
right I though [?] After looking in around a particular area with cement and trees I realised It wasn't there.

So I read the hint again and widened my search. Mr garmin wasn't playing fair today but I soon found the beast about 5m away from my GPS co-ords The hint helped!!

It had been muggled when we found it! Uncovered and lid off with contents a little strewn! Placed it back where we believed it should've been! TFTC Beautiful spot here!

the hint really helped.

This was our first find of the day (and Beachmere, in general). Thanks to innacuracies in the IPone, we searched in the wrong spot for a bit. But the clue quickly came in handy and the cache was spotted.

Did a few swaps. The kids got all excited. So all went to plan. TFTC!!

Hmmmmm.... I definately put a scratchie in! Seems like a muggle has tampered with the cache or maybe someone had a good scratch result and didn't log there visit?!? {tut tut}

Third find of the day. Lots of fishy muggles but we located with ease and put back.TFTC LNTN. No scrathie though.

No scratchie here. Another one on our Geodrive. Woohoo. I thought this was 2 of 9, maybe i am wrong. Nice views

POT OF GOLD up for grabs!!!

Went back to check cache... it had been moved from its original hiding place...(nothing like hunting for your own cache! lol) ,but only by a meter.
Back in location now, with a lovely "scratchie" for the next to find.
Who might have the chance to scratch for $25 000?

oh now i get it

nice views even on a rainy overcast day

tide was out so got to walk down on the sand

took little black ring
left green ribbon

After reading the hint we were looking for something completely different. Eventually hidey hole loceted and the clue made sense. Nice hide. TFTC

fourth one for the day with bubba_89,barbbowman and fasted59.
when we arrived at the spot we read the hint..and started looking for something completely different!
after we found this one it all fell into place!
TFTC

found with barbbowman, fasted 59 and rockabilly zombiee

TFTC

Seeing the cache was found earlier today I must have been looking in the wrong spot or looking for the wrong thing.

Nice hidy hole took awhile
Tftc

On an April Fool's cycling loop around Beachmere. Nice little cache. Lovely morning looking across the bay. Left a GC. TFTC

nice view,low tide a little bit smelly.

Quick find on a wet day out. swapped animal toy for puzzle.
TFTC

found it on a wet day. lots of leftover sandbags in the carpark for the recent flooding.Thanks for the cache

This took me a little hunting but i found it. Lots of muggles around. And some magic mushrooms growing nearby, what a prize - just kidding. TFTC.

We thought this place was lovely. Quite, peaceful and certainly worthy of a cache. Thanks for bringing us to the area.

Quick find what a lovely place to take a break. TFTC and taking us to this area.

Nice quite place ... Thanks .GR8 view

Geokid found this one, some muggles about though

Nice little park and great views of Scarborough. Muggles right nearby at picnic table but managed to get it whilst using geoteens for cover. TFTC.

Nice little park. Took TB. TFTC

PPrime and I teamed up today for trip to Bribie Island and surrounds

This one had us looking for a short time before we found it.

Cache in good condition and dry and I left a TB.

Out with Brother Colin for a big last day of 2011 caching planned on Bribie Island. Wandered into the area casually, and with one eye on a nearby muggle enjoying the views we managed to sneak the cache out of it's hiding place and sat on a nearby bench table to sign it. Took a little longer before said muggle get less curious about us so that it could be safely returned, but we got there.

Thanks cronfind. It truly is a lovely view!

Blowing a gale today but at least it kept the muggles away. Great one for the geokids.

Out geocaching with Scubacapers ,Tftc

Nice easy find for a beautiful Sunday morning!

Beut spot , Tftc

Nice quick find, Geokid loved this one and wanted a swim. 2nd find for the afternoon. Picked up TB. TFTC.

Found by Geojen while we were traveling together with Virga 13 and the Hound. TFTC

Another find for GeoJen after GZ was located.
Dropped off TB "Lady Bird Lady Bird Fly away Home", after giving her a good feed of pumpkin leaves. Didn't fatten her up much.

MUGGLES ALL DAY ,TFTC finally got it after 4 attempts during the day with different people using the park.

Beautiful Saturday afternoon. Nice easy find.

TFTC! SL Swapped blue porcipine and spinning top for earrings and a one cent coin Beautiful spot

Even though several months have passed since this cache was last recorded as found it was a quick find.
Both the cache and its contents are in good condition. TNLN.

Beautiful spot! Tftc!

Found with Questing4 while here on holiday from Perth. Thanks for the hunt.

Beautiful walk along the beach on a brisk morning, the corellas where playing in the park and in most of the trees along the beach, It was a lovely cache to find to start the day.

Took awhile to find as I was in the wrong park but GPS soon set me right. TNLN TFTC Thanks Cronfind

Had to make two visits before the coast was clear enough to grab this one. Perfect views and weather this afternoon. Thanks cronfind

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga 2 at 1030am. We were here last week but couldn't get near the cache for a pair of muggles having a cuddle. Today the car park was full and the ladies were having a morning tea next door with scones and cream but we didn't get an invitation so we walked to a table and had our own and found us a cache. When we went to leave after our own morning tea about 30 minutes later the car park was empty and all the ladies had gone; quick that was. Great views!! In: Geocoin Out: Geocoin. TFTC

ARG. Muggles. will be back.
James

=) found on a really hot day today, had to be carefull of a muggle family swimming right off the rocks just out from the cache, nice hide, found in a few minutes TFTC !! TNLN SL =)

Easy find. Great idea for the hide and the hint. Took MIPS R3000 40MHz TB, left GC&P Club March 2009 - Get Your Green On Geocoin.
TFTC

Well thought out hide nice area

Plenty of Muggles in the park today. Had a surreptitious look but couldn't find it. if it was hiding in the obvious place, it may have gone AWOL.

tried to get this one twice today, but a muggle sitting nearby just wouldnt move, so we had to call it a day. will try again soon.

The tide was out and the breeze was blowing - it was a great view.

Cache easily located with the aid of the hint.

TFTC

Yay, my first find.... shocking considering I have been a member for years now! Lovely day for a picnic too.

A wet afternoon and the bay was squally. Found with help of geowife. Took TB. Merry christmas Cronfind.

There was a slight breeze. It was cold as it ran across the low tide sand flats and up the craggy rock wall. A light rain was falling. A snapped branch hung precariously caught in the fork of a tree that looked too small to hold its weight. Without warning it fell to the ground and two muggles turned their gaze away from the sea to see what had happened. They looked straight at us. I nodded and turned to talk to K who was just in front of me. I saw her eyes had locked on a spot, I knew it was ground zero. I glanced at the muggles and they had turned back still looking toward the sea. Quickly K snatched the Memories Geocoin from the little chest that had protected it. It was now off for another memorable adventure. TFTC Took GeoCoin Caching Memories LN.

Found at 1200. Very clever hide. As I arrived I saw a puch bike laying on the ground and then I noticed someone fishing at the edge of the park. He left after a short while. I followed my GPSr toward GZ and I saw the likely spot for GZ and I was correct. TNSL Left trackables. TFTC cronfind

Rated: for Overall Experience

Quick find coz I needed to do my shoelace up nearly stood on it. TFTC

Came back on way home. Coast was clear this time. Could search and find in peace

Found Ok

Beautiful, blustery Sunday afternoon. Nice spot! Pretty hard to Find!

For years I thought the only thing of interest in Beachmere was the bowls club, but thanks to geocaching I found this magnificent outlook! The tide was in, the wind almost created surf and I located the cache with LeadNinja and Spongebobbb. Thanks cronfind for placing this cache in such a lovely area.

Found with geonanna & leadninja.
Nice hide and spectacular view.
TFTC

Nice easy find once the gizzmo settled. We have never been to Beachmere, so thanks for bringing us here cronfind. TNLN

I loved this top spot. Great hide, thanks for bringing us here cronfind!

Found at 1014 with Marg. The quickest find for the day. nice to have a seat while signing the log. TFTC.

A bit of a detour enroute to Bribie Island today, enjoyed the drive in amazed at the development as it is many years since my last visit. Great park. Thanks for bringing me back. TFTC

This took two visits - within 30 minutes I started the hunt at GZ.. nothing. Found a few likely places. Nada. Widened the search to about 20m. Still nada. Decided to go do the neighbouring cache.. and come back. Came back and started the hunt again. It was relatively muggleless at GZ. Hunting hunting... then I thought "What if....". Oh my great giddy Aunt - a cache! The co-ords were spot on me for on this one. Congratulations to Just a Trifle on getting the FTF. TFTC Cronfind

We needed two visits to this location due to muggles in the area. We also made it more difficult than it needed to be, having made an error transcribing the coordinates but we still managed to score the *FTF*. It was interesting sitting at the tables watching the yachts racing on the other side of the bay while waiting for the muggles to leave - wish we were out there sailing with them. A nice little area to visit, and a clever hide. TFTC cronfind
