Extremely clever. I had to use tall ihewman to reach it. He wouldn't believe me that was the cache.
Could not find while showing some of Bundaberg Bushwalking Club members how to do this activity. TNLN TFTC. holloy
I can see why all the fave points. I was looking on one side and crystal pointing out something odd. Lol. Good spotting. Loved the cache and the hide. Tftc
Passed by here yesterday but people were sitting in the shelter. Were in the area again so decided to give it another go. This time it was all clear.
Trenton8or went running in and went straight to the cache before TriBre and myself yelled hey don't touch that. That won't be it.
We searched the area a bit more before looking at what Trenton8or had originally went to. That does seem out of place. Sure enough there it was.

Out and about today with Trenton8or and Mastamak.
We had driven passed this cahce a few days before as there was people seated at the tables. Today we had to come to the Harbour to pick up some fresh seafood for supper. (Prawns and Moreton bay Bugs) Needless to say we drove passed again to see if it was all clear. It was Trenton8or that first comment on the hide and we said to him not too touch it. It was only after we had given the place a once over that we returned to make a comment on there is no connections to this cache.... And what do you know We had the cache in Hand so Well done to Trenton8or!
Another Favorite for me, to think there has been so many people here and they have no idea!??
This was the 12th find of 21 for the day. With can you believe NO DNF's, So it was a Fantastic Day!!

Nice hide nice area wish we had parked the other side closer to the road lol anyway a nice walk
Holidaying in Moore Park and decided to go for a drive. Nice area. Very clever hide but figured it out quickly. TFTC
We were in Burnett Heads today for The Lighthouse Festival, and had previously loaded a few caches into the gismo.
After we had set up for the festival I went caching. Found this easly, with a very wide smile on my face at the simplicity of the hide, no one about, everyone was at the festival.
Deserves a favourite
Cache is in good condition.

Ah ha...very clever. I had looked at the cache on previous visit thinking that it was dangerous to leave that like that and moved on to keep searching. Thanks to Mezza Get That and the "look up" hint...we found it. TFTC
Went back after a few days, when I had the time. And stood looking n thinking. Then when my brain turned on, I couldn't stop laughing because we'd made a comment on it and didn't think anything of it. I'm sure all the neighborhood heard me laughing. Thanks I'm glad I had to go back??
Didn't find this one, read previous logs though didn't come up with anything. There is a new slab of concrete been placed right at the co-ords, maybe this has covered up the old hide??? Or I we just weren't with it on the day.
Sorry that was ment to read concrete not concert. Silly iPhone, and the user. Lol
Spent half hour looking for cache. Couldn't find it hoping it's not under the concret that's there,went back there after a hint was given. then found it. thanks lol

Yet another excellent cache challenge which required some stealth and patience indeed.
TFTC Ozibags for this and all your amazing caches - we do thank you for all your creativity and effort you put into your many caches - much appreciated.

Another very clever hide by Ozibags. Your cache hides are always a challange, we thank you. TFTC Ozibags
We were not successful in finding this hide today and certainly were disappointed as from what we have read it is well worth finding but we will be back - if not in the next few days - next year when we return on holiday! The area certainly is a favourite spot for muggle walkers, their families with their dogs!! TFTC Ozibags which we hope to find one day in the future???
Lovely day for an oceanside cache. Nice hide, good to see some creativity. TFTC.
LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT - this definately gets a favourite from me. Out and about with Firsttime4us2 and this was our 6th find. We were so lucky that we only had to wait a short time (in a lovely spot) for muggles to move away. Funnily we had looked exactly at the spot but not thought anything of it. When we couldn't find it anywhere else, we soon realised the error of our ways. Signed and replaced. TFTC Ozibags.
Definitely love this one, a very creative cache a nice shelter to sit in and enjoy the view after a walk TFTC
A day of discovering more of the scenic areas surrounding Bundaberg. We loved the views of the sea, the tropical plants and tranquil scenery. The caches have been so creative and well maintained and both fun and challenging to find. This was particularly tricky till be had an ah ha moment. Luckily no muggles around. Deserving of a fav point.
Thanks to Ozibags.
Thanks to Ozibags.
We returned 3 times to this location before we could begin our search, each time there had been muggles sitting in their cars. So glad we did come back as we thought this was a terrific hide & worth a favourite point. 1st time we had seen one like this.

Wow, I was blown away by this cache hide. The first find in what turned out to be a great geocaching trip; largely because of great hides like this one in such a beautiful part of Australia. Thanks Ozibags a favourite from me.
Girls of fwarewolf and smearas were unable to find,maybe next time with some help from the guys they will be more successful .
Loved it! Was an easy find for me, I'd love to do more like this lovely camo job! I had to add a fave point.
Found GZ OK a few muggles out walking dogs spent a bit of time looking around the shelter and the trees and suddenly Yorki and the Hound looked in the same place and said there it is . A bit sneaky this one Ozibags. TFTC.
After swimming turned out to be impossible caching was an agreebale alternative.

Not at all what we expected. A very creative hide and well worthy of a fav point.
Spotted this clever hide immediately as seemed a bit unbelievable especially it the spot it was. Replaced about 75mm away!
Love these hides: 1 x favourite. Thanks.

Finally got a chance to look for this without muggles being around. Great hide.
Brilliant. Didn't twig at first glance, but then the penny dropped. Thanks Ozibags.
What a clever hide. I loved it. Will give this one a favourite point. Grabbed it between muggles, but Oh no! Muggles came from everywhere, and settled down for picnics. Had to take it with me to do a couple of other caches, then returned and found a clear moment to return cache to its right place. TFTC
After a bit of looking bethden spotted the clever little deception. Well done as usual Ozibags. TNLN
Our little Tyler was asleep in the pram so I continued walking from the turtle trail to this one (as the rule is never wake a sleeping baby) On arrival to GZ I spotted the likely container without even grabbing the GPS I opened the log to sign, but oh no, I had put my pen back in the car at the last cache! Doh I then had to wait for Jason that had go AWOL and not answering his phone
After about 20 mins he appeared as he had wandered off to the lighthouse without his phone [?] Log was then signed and we returned it to its spot Thanks Ozibags for another great cache, so obvious to a cacher but not to the commoners

Realised we were early for our 1315 meet for the attack on Harriet Island and decided we had time to attempt three or more .
Arrived at GZ and thought this would be easy or not easy. Had a good look around and wallah there it was in full sight. Great hide and great Camo. Found at 1200. TFTC Ozibags.

Took a second look for this one, on first sight thought NO but yep it was right. What a setting for signing logs. TFTC
Great camo cache and a lovely spot to find it. Caches like this add to the adventure. I always have to remember to proceed with caution. Lol Thanks Ozibags
Lovely spot for a stop after a early morning ride and a very clever cache to boot [^].
Log sheet has been found and replaced back into it's position in the cache. I've added keithnhazel and Team Vertigo's name in the log.
With an extra day this month makes it a great day to find a cache or two.Found cache ok but log is missing, we have placed a piece of paper with cache to act as temp log until owner can replace it
on a rainy ,blowy day...the view was a little hard to see.....as for the cache....i think there must be part of the cache missing as i could not find it...the cache also has a chip on the edge, like it has been dropped.......i think it needs some TLC.....TFTC...cheers
So anyway.. it ended up that time did indeed permit
I motored past this morning. I was thinking maybe I should go at night - but I thought I would give it a go. Jagged it! The shelter was empty. I staked it out and sat in it and started looking about.
Then something caught my eye. A closer inspection indeed pointed to the fact that it was the cache. *Yoik*. What an original and clever hide. The container is very well constructed and in good condition. Like Crew 153, this one earns an easy favourite point from me. And a beautiful area as well. TFTC Ozibags

Hmm muggles Didn't even get out of the car. Might come back later if time permits. TFTH Ozibags.
We spent some time searching for the a sign of the cache between passing muggles.
After 20 minutes we made a call to a previous finder and even after being given a big clue we were not sure that the cache would be there but we tried it anyway and found there was a log in there.
A great bit of camo. A *recommended* favourite for us. thanks Ozibags.

You never fail to delight and surprise us Ozibags. Took us a while as we saw the evidence early on but lightly dismissed it. We will have to start and trust our instincts more!. TFTC SL and will be giving this a favourite as we laugh at ourselves.
Great cache and lovely view. As we were about to replace the cache muggles came with fish and chips and sat at near by table. Thinking of tactics to replace the cache In case they take too long. Decided that Mummy Ag should get ice creams for the long haul.

Seirra1 saw this one come up on the emails but decided it was to late to go out. Went out next afternoon after work. Nearly beat us, when you work for the authority that manages places like this you get a bit lazy in your thinking. Fantastic hide Ozibags, well done. TFTC
Saw this one come up on the web but was to late and too tired to go out. We went out next afternoon after work. Nearly threw us but geo-fiancee with her more enquiring eye got it. Terrific hide, TFTC Ozibags.
Little Fuddleys spot it before I got there and yes it was a *FTF* to our surprise. Lovely day to be at the beach as well. Nice hide John.
