Hmmm in the shed?
 
26-Apr-14
Not found
 
12-Apr-14
After much digging around, still no find Sad
 
06-Apr-14
Got right to ground zero but nothing here to sniff! Didnt spend a lot of time as not confident after seeing so many DNFs
 
28-Mar-14
I think this one might need a check from the CO. I was in the area today and after some recent PAF's to me thought I would check this one out.

Couldn't find it where I found it and did a quick look around without luck.
 
15-Mar-14
Was a lovely spot for a break with the geobaby- but unfortunately this one has evaded us- I do hope it's still here somewhere!
 
09-Feb-14
Well I found the shed, but sadly not the cache.
 
09-Feb-14
Maybe the cache is the shed! Wink
 
08-Feb-14
Add me to the list too
 
01-Feb-14
Yep, add us to the list of peeps who can't find this one!
 
26-Jan-14
I couldn't find this geocache, maybe I'll have better luck next time!
 
25-Dec-13
Tough one - second look around and still no luck...
 
19-Dec-13
No luck. Is it even still here?
 
15-Nov-13
I found this geocache using the Geocaching Intro App. TFTC!
 
15-Nov-13
Apparently someone found it earlier today but it amazes me that this is possible considering how long I've been looking. I think the difficulty rating should be adjusted considering only 10% of people are finding it
 
13-Nov-13
came back today I was here for over an hour and no luck, if it is here it may be deep under mulch and leaves I have been all over this shed and garden around it. ill be back
 
13-Nov-13
I really think this one need to be found again by the CO just to conform its here and TB is inside, I have been here three times with no luck, ill be back for sure I cant leave a dnf go Smile
 
07-Nov-13
After searching for some time with a large group of other Geocachers we finally gave up. This had been moved according to one of the ladies who had previously found it but was totally evasive on the day. It was a lovely spot to be looking. Thanks for the company while searching.
 
07-Nov-13
Spent a long time here with a previous finder. Cache is definitely not where it was previously, and with all the eyes looking there today it's a wonder we didn't find it. All traditional and untraditional locations were well searched. Could the owner check it is still there please?
 
06-Nov-13
I have to log this so the Cache Reviewer will see how many DNFs are showing.
It is hard to believe this cache was found by a newbie when so many experienced cachers were unable to find it
On the day I was here there were, at one stage, 15 yes 15 people looking for this cache
Even with the information about where the cache had been hidden, not one of those 15 people could find the cache.
Something is wrong here. Would be great if it can be cleared up.
 
06-Nov-13
Hhmmm no find Even seen a muggle worker arrr don't know mate ?
 
06-Nov-13
My second attempt at this one. About 14 sets of eyes here this afternoon and no luck. I think we annoyed one of the workers here.
 
06-Oct-13
Had a look around, was a little discouraged by all the other DNF's logged. Love the chairs! maybe next time.
 
03-Oct-13
Unfortunately we did not find this cache. Searched for 30 Mins and phoned a previous finder for a hint. Cache was not where they had found it earlier in the year. Sad Will come back another time. Thanks.
 
17-Sep-13
After hiking up the road with a double stroller with 18kg on board, then bush bashing (for Eclipsemas Tree) with both hands full of children in the unseasonably warm early spring, we were all in much need of this luscious little oasis of cool. Fabulous spot to break for morning tea and to feed the micro geo son (11 weeks). Even the sprinkler occasionally spraying us was a welcome relief. Unfortunately, I still could not find this cache (2nd time trying with more experience under my belt). For all I know I was actually sitting on it! Mozzies were moving in so we had to go. I WILL find this one eventually.
 
27-Aug-13
Geoson and I were on our Botanical Garden adventure and made our way to this cache. We were on a tight time budget so started running along the pathways as we made our way to GZ.

When we found GZ and spotted the cache, I realised I had dropped my pen during my athletic journey.

So we signed the log with a stick, hopefully the next finder will see our etchings and sign under it. CO, if you want a pic for further proof, let me know and I'll send you one.

Thanks for the cache sniffme - new log all good, previous one still very soggy.

PS - I found my pen on the way back Smile
 
23-Aug-13
Unfortunatly not found
 
04-Aug-13
9 people hunted for 20 min but couldn't find it.

A beautiful spot but no cache for us today, loved the cool timber chairs. Looked for ages in the GZ but wondered if it was there given all the dnfs in the log. We will be back another time. TFTH Sniffme!
 
02-Aug-13
Back again for a more thorough search with a hint from a fellow cacher. No good, I think this one has disappeared Sad
 
20-Jul-13
Sunday 14th july, Looked everywhere, sniffed everything, found nothing Sad Hope it is still there, cute chairs ! We will be back!
 
15-Jul-13
I've looked up and down and in and out but after 30 minutes I had to call it quits. If someone could give me a little more of a hint that would be great.
 
06-Jul-13
Hi, We went again today to try to collect the afgan traveller hoping to move him closer to Germany. Unfortunatly cache was not to be found in its last position we walked around looking in bushes and rest of shed hoping to find it, nothing. Can you please confirm it is there or if you have moved it. Thanks would love to find TB
 
02-Jul-13
Will try to get out there at 1410 for a cuppa, would be nice to meet some fellow geocachers Smile
 
28-Jun-13
Our second Geocache find for the day (and ever!) Took a little while and we'd nearly given up when our 9 year old spotted it!
 
14-Jun-13
Took forever to find this one, good hide. Logged Ash & Bear
 
18-May-13
Nice walk to get here, left Afghan traveller
 
10-May-13
Approached GZ and the site of something metal in this wilderness meant an easier find Smile Found it almost immediately - great little hiding place! TFTC sniffme.
 
10-May-13
Got to GZ and thought about the hint. Matt soon found the cache Smile. Quick & easy find Smile. All is good with the cache Smile. Found with Matt_Eth Smile. TFTH sniffme Smile.
 
10-May-13
Geokid found this one after looking around and poking about. TFTC
 
04-May-13
Found the spot but couldn't find this one either
 
14-Apr-13
This is a good one. Swellerfungus & I did feel a bit naughty ferreting around someone's workplace. There was a number of interesting items lying around that would actually make interesting cache containers... Thanks

31-Dec-12
Kids loved the Xmas tree nearby. Nice place to work. TFTC.
 
28-Dec-12
No smoko here today, must be a day off. GPS was a little off but the hint really helped! TFTC
 
28-Dec-12
Out with Nirseyjulie and was expecting the CO to be waiting with a nice cup of tea! Milk no sugar!

Coords are roughly 7-8m out and point to the wrong side of the tack, i.e. the side where you won't get a cup of tea Wink

NJ found it quickly once we ignored the gpsr...

TFTC sniffme, lucky you working at the gardens Smile
 
24-Dec-12
We loved your Christmas tree beside the shed. Merry Christmas!
 
08-Dec-12
Why didn't I see this last time? It was easy enough! Tea shop not open today either. TFTC.
 
06-Dec-12
Walking a bit further into the Gardens today, I was glad to find this nice quiet cool spot!!

Found the sneaky hide quickly.

Thanks sniffme
 
30-Nov-12
Youngest person in the troop found it - great work Luc !!!

Bit of a smell at the old shed.
 
30-Nov-12
Out with Time For Bed. Little Luc found it.

29-Oct-12
Not very often you get to rest on some cool chairs while you fill out the log book TFTC
 
28-Oct-12
I would happily sit here for a break from work. Found on a caching in the area while visiting from Sydney. TFTC
 
25-Oct-12
Found surprisingly quickly. Nice spot. TFTC
 
13-Oct-12
Found this one last out of the days haul.
 
11-Oct-12
Missed you guys for a cuppa. Tftc
 
23-Sep-12
#576 We did a full loop around the lake and stopped by the tool shed to look for this cache. When I got to the tool shed, I spotted the cache hanging around. It looks like ants and spiders liked that spot too. Saw the small chairs that a previous cacher mentioned. TFTC!
 
19-Sep-12
Didn't find it this time. Too scared of creepy crawlies popping out of various hiding places. Will be back for a more thorough search though.
 
08-Sep-12
Sorry for the copy and paste, just keeping track of all the caches I found with Icecream boy.

TFTC
 
02-Sep-12
More like on the outside of the name maybe? Thanks!!
 
31-Aug-12
Met up with the lovely CaptainTerror and Whint to do a caching day around the area today.
this was a lovely little cache in a beautiful spot. happy to see a nice little drink fountain nearby Wink
the cache was found swiftly and logged while checking out the cool chairs at this hut.
TFTC
 
31-Aug-12
Doing a spot of caching in the gardens I made my way to GZ with Gaz {Gaz'n'Kab}, Captain Terror & Egg in the sky.

Approaching GZ the first thing I noticed was the very cool little chairs... love them... wish I had some just like them Smile

cache was soon in hand and log was signed before heading off

tftc
 
29-Aug-12
Interesting hide on the shed. We found it by looking in all the normal spots first.
A lovely end of the gardens - nice place for a smoko.
Thanks, Robmc.
 
29-Aug-12
# 1128. Our second find in the gardens on this lovely afternoon. We were here at the wrong time to catch a cuppa. But we did catch a cache - or at least Robmc caught it. A lovely spot near the water amongst the coolness of the gardens. TFTC
 
29-Aug-12
What a great place to have smoko. We could see the scene, picturing you gazing across the water, breathing in the cool clear air. But no one was having a break when we called in so no tea for us. Luckily we didn't walk away empty handed as Rob soon put his hand on the cache.
Thanks
 
15-Aug-12
It took us a while, even with the clue, but it's a great choice of location. We came on a public holiday, so no chance of a cup of tea. No pencil, so we couldn't sign the log book.
 
12-Aug-12
I've never taken the opportunity to explore this end of the Gardens before, but after visiting the woodwork exhibition in the auditorium, we decided to pick up a few caches too. This one led to a rather spiderwebby structure, so after spotting the container, I chickened out and made The Marble retrieve it. We liked the location but were seriously unimpressed with whoever left the used lipbalm as a swap. Charming. TFTC, sniffme. =^.^=
 
12-Aug-12
Continued on our walk through these pleasant surrounds and found this one quite quickly. Used a nearby tool to dislodge the webs before removing the cache. Not a popular path today so we had no trouble signing the log and returning the cache to its hidey hole. TFTC sniffme.
 
11-Aug-12
Great little cache. Great gardens. Geowife particularly liked this one. TFTC
 
31-Jul-12
Very nice to meet cache owner at site, although I did let myself down a bit by taking a while to locate the cache while he watched! A special day for me finding my 11,000th cache! Only needed to locate 43 caches to bring up that total. This was one of the caches. SL TFTC
 
14-Jul-12
first find for the day. very xciting!!! my compass was a little out so we did well.
 
13-Jul-12
No smoko, but the cache was tucked snugly in its little corner. Cozy spot despite the rain. tftc!
 
03-Jul-12
We enjoyed our walk through this part of the Botanical Gardens - during our previous visits we have stayed around the main exhibits and not ventured out into the larger park area. We can strongly recommend taking the time and effort to go to the extremities of the gardens. Sniffme wasn't at home when we arrived. Accurate coordinates led to a quick find. The cache and contents are in good condition. Loved the nearby seats. TFTC sniffme.
 
08-Jun-12
Found by a shriek and a spider Smile
 
04-Jun-12
What a great spot for smoko... Sat back read info n clues .... Looked up and there it was ... Thanks sniffme 4TCSmile
 
30-May-12
wonderful place. thx
 
12-May-12
This one had us scratching our heads bit.tftc
 
07-May-12
I almost expected to see a small cupcake saying "eat me" sitting in the little table. What a magical spit! Cache found after looking everywhere that it wasn't Smile
 
07-May-12
After a very busy weekend away, a quiet walk in the gardens whilst grabbing a few caches seemed ideal. Looked in what I thought was the correct place but no luck. Maybe time for a afternoon nap and have another go later.
 
07-May-12
Another beautiful and quiet part of the gardens that I do not visit much. Thank you.
 
07-May-12
We had a great day hunting for caches with friends. TFTC
 
22-Apr-12
I'd forgone the coffe at the establishment near the entry to seek thiese caches so I was disappointted not to be offered a cuppa on arrival at the the shed.

This is truely a lovely spot tucked away in the back of the park and I suspect not a great deal of visitors mange to make it over here, which is a shame. Big Grin
 
16-Apr-12
Out and about with Net88 in the Botanic Gardens at Mount Coot-tha.

As we walked down to GZ we watched someone doing a great job of reversing nearby. Could it have been...? Pity we arrived at GZ about 10 minutes too late for a cuppa Sad Oh well, on to the cache. Net88 took one side and I the other and she found it straightaway. Convenient table to hand as well, and the little carved chair was gorgeous. TFTC, sniffme. Only a cacher would spot the hide Smile
 
16-Apr-12
IolantheK and i were out caching today and i think we JUST missed out on having smoko with someone. As we approached the GZ we saw a very talented display of reversing. I offered to take one side of the shed whilst IolantheK took the other. I made it to my side and saw it straight away. Another cache where you won't notice it unless you know what could be there. Thanks for the cache.
 
03-Apr-12
Found it with the help of some friendly staff! Just had to look up
