Nice easy find but log is very wet! I could not sign! I therefore have put a photo with the cache as proof! TFTC
Tricky find as tracks seem to meander all around the place. Found on way back to vehicle. I think we were trying too hard
I went on a week long trip to Cairns to escape the Canberra region and do a little diving and some exploration with caching to keep me busy. The warm weather was refreshing after the Canberra winter. As usual after flying up there was lots of walking but it was great to be out. Day 10. This was my last day around Cairns and I went South for a bit of caching, even a few short walks.
Of course I did not take the easiest route to this one, but as desibed, it was mostly open till just near GZ. A bit of back and forth in the trees, but I soon found it and was able to head back to the car.
Thanks for the cache chatmanais

A nice walk along the concrete path, then knifed my way through some long grass to find the fork. I feasted on the cache find, then spooned my way back to my geomobile. TFTC chatmanais.

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there chatmanais. We found your cache "Use the fork" at 10:00:00 AM today. This cache makes our find count 11013.

We had to take our caravan to the Jayco dealer to have a warranty issue looked at. It has only taken them 9 months to supply the correct parts, despite being sent photos of the affected area way back in October 2014. [:(!]
We enjoyed all the caches we found today.
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: The container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.[font=Verdana]

Thought this might have been muggled as the location was obvious but the cache was definitely not there. Found it on the ground in the leaf litter so it has been restored to it's proper place. Intrigued as to where this path might lead but simply too hot in the middle of the day in flip flops and no had to investigate! TFTC, this area is growing so much!
Well... My first time geocaching with nephew Corey and his son Harry. We found this by looking for something that shouldn't be there.. But I gather that's how it's done. ☺ now to brave the ants and put it back ☺
Excellent cache! Beautiful views and a moderately challenging find. A perfect introduction to geocaching for my uncle, visiting from Brisbane. Geo kid and geo hound loved it. Took necklace, left you horse. TFTC
Another quick find whilst cruising around on a Sunday.
Unfortunately we spent the next hour sitting on the side of the road as out car decided that it did not want to start. Why do we bother keeping it serviced if it does this for no reason. Oh we'll, lucky my wife was with me to keep me company.

Nice location GZ isnt exactly where I thought would be a gopd spot but none the less tftc
Found while in Cairns, on our travels around Australia.
Walked up concrete path, and with 50m to go, track turned to gravel.
Bounded up the embankment, grabbed a tree and there was the cache.

With Fangsoki in Cairns and this one was next for us this afternoon. I had some issues with this one, like a big girl almost
We parked and followed the path up, then hit the grass. We had to dodge a landmine (read: poop) and in the process I found a bunch of angry, spiky grass. No worries, on farther and the cache was close. We hunted about and I soon spotted the container. It was covered in ants which Fangsoki threatened to buy me a jar of as pets.
The logbook signed and replaced, by now sans ants and back to the grassy path. I was glad to get back to concrete after my comedic fails getting this one. TFTC chatmanais

Captain Terror and I were in Cairns for caching and decided to drop in on this one.
We had a few fails getting to this one - but we eventually found a way. Captain Terror was having fun with "exotic" cane grass - and then more "exotic" ants when we arrived at GZ We found the cache safe and sound and in good condition. A nice little area. TFTC chatmanais

Nice location at GZ. A short search and cache was in hand. No swaps today

Another caching day in Cairns but we are hoping that it will be a very special day in that we achieve our 4000th cache. Tried using the fork for some time until we spotted the cache lying in the open at the bottom of the bank. Signed then replaced in what we believe to be its home and added the natural camo.

Quick find for the Geokids this afternoon. Had to wait for some Muggle walkers to leave the GZ before we swooped in to claim the prize. TFTC TNLN SL {#107}.
With mrsbiggles58 on one side and the geohound on the other we set of to the hide. Terrific views from up here. Soon had the cache in hand. SL TNLN TFTC

Oh, this is a DNF morning[:(!]. After not finding "Heroes and Villains" now this one in pouring rain[:(!]. We assume the cache is muggled away[:(!] because there was no container at all at the obvious place.
Anyway, thanks for the nice view of the distant mountains in the morning[^].

Unfortunately not a first-to-find, but only missed out by an hour. Was an easy cache to locate using the GPS co-ordinates given and a good excuse for a walk with Brahms6. Took nothing but left a TFTC Geocoin Club November 2007 Geocoin. Thanks again Chatmanais.
FTF at 5:05pm on my way home from work. Saw this one come up during the afternoon, but decided to leave it until the storm had passed before attempting. Was pleasantly surprised to find that it had not been found, when I arrived. The views from the GZ are quite scenic and the sound of running water nearby was pleasant. Sorry I didn't catch up with Wazza&Kara, but I didn't hang about.
T: Tee trackable L:N as I didn't have my kit with me.
