Due to cache not being put back in the same place and thus spoiling for others I am archiving to redesign
Had a look at all the things the hit suggests, no luck the GZ looks like it has had about 3 feet of water over it suggest CO has a look to confirm it is still here to be found
Easy find with cybermew3 on a cache finding hunt

Sad to see so much rubbish in the area from all the rain water

Down from Newcastle for the day, this was on the to do list but we had no luck at the GZ
Had a good search around GZ but couldnt turn up a find. Will come back when the area has dried out a little and I might have a little more luck.
11:35, GAFF2, A nice quick find, we came across it's cousin not so long ago.
Added some log paper, dried out old log as best possible, most of the ink has run.
Worthy of a favourite.

This was an instant find. A novel container. The log is completely full and soaking wet. Because of this I only wrote my name in for the find - there was no other room - but it was also meant for the WaywardWoman, NickoHeap and Garks. Thanks
Found on the ground which disappointed me as I was looking forward to the challenge. Confirmed with a friend as to roughly where to return it. SL in the last bit of white space #329

Bill laurie would be proud of this cache....log is full needs changing ,tftc.
Thanks to Steveishere for suggesting a detour to this one on Hills event day. Always great to see a different approach, Loved it!
This was a quick find. I was in the area placing a cache and thought I should grab this one. It was close to dark and my torch was a little flat but I still made the find without a problem. Nice container. I'm thinking the terrain is a litle low on this one? Thanks for the cache.
Out with AMGSARI for a morning's caching!!
Well what can I say .... very original placement of a most interesting cache!!
The log sheet needs replacing, sorry I couldn't do it.

After DNFing at Bifrost, this was the first on the list to boost my ego with a find. I have seen an identical type of hide at Oak Flats.
Thanks tlm.
Thanks tlm.

I was home with Geodaughter and after lunch took her to see if we could find this cache. I parked near GZ and we walked over. She was a little apprehensive to walk into the 'bush', A little scared of leeches, etc I think.
I went in to check GZ and then called her in. Read out the description, explained the word agile, and then she went, 'oh could it be that?' I looked and sure enough, spotted something that would need agility. I went for it, and found the camo and cache. SL and replaced. Nice one thelovemores, loved it, TFTC.

Found with 4DXPLOR this morning, my geouncle made the find then we watched as he tried to get it. Great area, nice hide. TFTC
Well! I got the biggest fright of my life here. Walking around, trying to get a fix on GZ, I nearly stepped onto the biggest waterdragon lizard I've ever seen (2 foot long). It dived into the creek and left me to find this tricky hide. Reading previous logs and how one has to be agile, the most likely spot stood out. Ah ha, there you are! I haven't seen one like this before. TFTC

Phone had us going the wrong way to start with.. Lots of mosquitos. Got to GZ looked for a bit then saw something that wasnt quite right.. So good. Best one yet.. Libstar found it
This geocache proved to be a tough one, even though I already knew the general bushland area from previous caches.
And the word 'agility' in the CO's description was ringing in my head the whole time . . .
After quite a long search at the end of a long day, which included a lot of time at 'Bifrost,' I began gradually spiraling out from the presumed (in fact, as I found out later, the actual) GZ and searched further afield.
However, I kept returning to two places which related to that descriptive word and (as I found out later) twice came very, very close to putting my hands on the cache. However, I just didn't quite persevere enough.
(I can't say too much more without giving the game away!)
Finally, I used the PAF option and was encouraged to give it my all for a third and final time! I now claim to be the most agile 63 year old to have found this one. (I was alone at the time so had to supply my own agility . . . )
The ingenious cache was in good order, nice and dry. TNLNSL. (And the true GZ coordinates are within 4-6 metres of the published coords -- at least according my Oregon 300. This level of accuracy is quite good enough to get you within searching distance.)
I'll have to give this one a favourite point. Not only was it imaginative, but I was very, very pleased with myself, if I do say so . . .
Many thanks to thelovemores!
(But please don't make a habit of this kind of hide . . . )

Certainly not where I thought it would be, although caching trails at GZ tell the story... sort of.

I had an Idea on this one so I took my geo boys along with me.
Sure enough they had cache in hand fast and they loved it.
So you get a favorite from me.
SL and RNTD safe.

Reperio at 1300.
Was nearby when this one was published, so headed off at the speed of light, but then struck trouble when I heard the faint sound of 'Flap Flap Flap'...pulled over, and then heard the sound of 'Hiss'...A flat tyre. I was close enough I could have jogged to GZ, but in the end, stayed with the car and changed over the tyre. Once at GZ, the cute cache was spotted immediately, and the log signed. The size of the cache needs to be dropped down, but like the container.

Not too sure about the legal speeds but we had CIH pretty quickly, If you've ever seen hammerman or Trixter it was funny watching us retrieve the cache.
I was out with Powerplayx2 when I received word from geo-home HQ of a nearby FTF. Sadly we weren’t quick enough but found a very interesting hide. Well done great container and placement, thanks .
Out and about in the hills with jk today and this was a great cache to do we
were stumped at first but jk spotted it and let me go and get it,well done and
this cache blends in with the environment just looks like it belongs there,first
time I seen one like that gets a favorite point from me..TFTC..

Both myself and hammerman were at the local markets when this cache came up on our phones. A quick checkin with she who must be obeyed and we were off. Getting to GZ as quick as legally allowed we had a scan off the area. The hint made sence and the cache was in hand soon after. I loved the container and thought that went into this one. TFTC. And FTF to Hammerman & Trixter
If this is a difficulty 4.5 then Bifrost needs to re-rated to a 14.5:)
I think the ratings need to be swapped around!!
A very quick find and retrieve by the geoson, although I said he was a bit cuckoo!
An unusual and very amusing hide - great stuff, good to see something completely different. I don't think the log will take long to fill though!!
