We have searched the area on a few occasions with no luck. Going with recents logs my guess is that it is no longer there.
Our 2nd dnf today. Scoured pretty thoroughly but the previous logs didn't give us much hope.
No luck here either. Checked a lot of trees. Found a heap of birds which excited the geokids but no sign o the cache. Either it's gone or it is harder than it should be.
Non luck today. Has muggle parents helping, after reading the precious logs I thought extra eyes might help. Alas no. This might be in need of some CO love.
Not today
Poked around for quite a while
Not to be
Will be back if it is found

Tried this one at night with the geokids that don't like the dark will try again when the sun shines
Got to what we thought was ground zero, but it was private property, and we really didn't want to go in, (a yard with lots of trees), so we decided to go back to the car, but as we were leaving one of the geokids turned around and saw a pathway between two of the houses. Lucky she turned around.
We found the place we were supposed to be, and all the trees, and clouds were playing havoc with the GPS so lucky us there is a hint for this one.
Found cache high and dry. TFTC

An appropriate cache to find at this time of year, and one that didn't take long to spot once we started looking in the right way. Plenty of birds singing their little hearts out and not a muggle to be seen - all inside hiding from the rain, I expect! Not a container I was expecting and interesting to see something a little different. TFTC, jon_yvo . =^.^=
As it turned out, today was quite an apt day to find this cache. Retrieval proved easy but nature took revenge when I replaced it. TFTC
Did we find this one? On Christmas Day, my father wanted to see what this geocaching thing was about. This one was close by, so we went off in search.
After being unsure if we really found our last one (Australia Day 2012), we weren't sure if we found this one either. I gave my Dad the GPSr and instructions, and let him loose... and found a cache. But this one didn't seem to match the description either, and the name on the container was different than on the website. But the coords were pretty much spot on for us. All in all, a pretty confusing introduction to geocaching for my elderly father.
Nonetheless, a really easy, fruity find.

In Toowoomba for the weekend visiting the Grandparents for an early Christmas celebration. After a good caching afternoon the previous day, I got up early this morning to knock over a few while the family slept.
Arrived at GZ and it was surrounded in fog and the car park was full of cars. Later realised it was another PT class on a Sunday morning. Fortunately GZ was in the opposite direction. Found it easily but then realised I forgot to bring ink. Rehid and raced back to the car. Returned to sign log. Cache is in good nick. TFTC

Out with IolantheK for our Friday excursion A quick stroll through the park to this one. GZ was soon located and the cache was found after some circle work
Back in Toowoomba again on another Mad Friday with teamdfl
A clever hide, and glad it was still within my reach Interesting container. They don't make them like that anymore. TFTC, jon_yvo.

Ah, at last a cache for all us fruitcakes out there [^]
A short stroll across the park had me at a likely tree in quick time.
I could see the cache and why a careless retrieval might inflict pain
I soon had the tin of fruitfulness open and added me name to the list of finders.

My dog enjoyed the park. I have been "bitten" by these so many times. Care needed. Thanks jon yvo
I know it'd easy .. but I got sick of getting spiked ... I'll come back when the members of team Iliffe "man up" a little !!
A nice sized container for a cache this close to suburbia and well maintained container too
A loveley setting, would have been better if i had remembered the pen (yet another walk back to the car)
There were some muggles nearby with their little hounds on a play date but otherwise muggle free.
A nice little park otherwise i would not have visited.
Cheers for the cache

After a days work I joined my shadow and and Muddtrax to find this one. Finding this one in the dark with no torc and only an iPhone proved a little harder. Nevertheless the cache was found safe and sound and log was signed. Took pathtag. TFTC
Geowife found this one after my geo 11 year old and I were rudely stung by stinging nettles. Beware! They hurt!! Left squinky, took fluffy chick!!
Another quick find now I have mastered the GPS in my phone.

I was with Fangsoki on the hunt here today and I bailed out for a solo hunt. I legged it down the hill towards GZ to find Aussie Liahona already on site with the cache in hand. Ah a nice quick one for me in this nice area. Added my name to the log and off we went to the next. TFTC jon yvo
With the clue we were looking higher than where we actually found the cache, but it was safe and well hidden and in good condition. We really enjoyed hearing so many wonderful bird calls here today. We also ran into Captain Terror terrorising this neighbourhood but the birds must know and love him as they weren't worried about him at all. Thanks for the cache jon yvo.

With this many eyes looking, an easy find.
My 10th for the day.

A lovely walk through this park to grab this one with my sister.
Thanks for the cache.

Great spot to take the dog. I replaced it and covered it slightly better than I found it because it was clearly visible. Sat there for a while enjoying the kookaburras and parrots. Took nothing.
In town for a night to catch up with friends and check on my caches. First cache for the day. What a cold morning! There's proof that it does get colder in Toowoomba than in Melbourne!!! TFTC, jon yvo! Greetings from Melbourne!
On a cold foggy Toowoomba day we found this cache. Nice and simple when you look in the right spot
When we came into this park, the din from the rainbow lorikeets was deafening. Whilst to the occasional visitor (like us), the birds are enchanting, to the residents they must be a nightmare. We had visions of neighbours walking around with ear-muffs and communicating by mobile phones and Bluetooth connections. As we neared GZ we could see the cache as any covering it may have had had fallen off. After signing the log, we replaced the cache in the same location but, hopefully, more secure covering. The cache and contents are in good condition. TFTC jon_yvo
Have to wait for 1 random muggle to bugger off, then was able to put it back... TfTc
After avoiding a muggle that was keen on looking at what we we doing......finally we had the cache in hand. SL TNLN TFTC
Loved the walk to this one nice easy find for the miss 3. Swapped a few items and enjoyed the walk back

Lokipagan and I pulled up at this one - though I was not happy with our parking position - so we tried another one - that didn't seem much better - but we rolled with it.
What a beautiful area this was this afternoon - nice and cool - and very picturesque. We arrived at GZ and Loki made a quick find. The cache was in good condition. We signed the log and moved on. TFTC jon yvo

Found it and borrowed the geocoin to move it on
Trees messed up the GPS but clues helped.

14km from home.
Our first stop and second cache in this park on the way to see a friend on her birthday.
Having lived in the area for over 30 years this was our first visit to this well maintained park.
Kids having a game of footy on the oval but we were well away from them for the find.
Both Mrs RF and I had the hiding place ‘zoned in’ from about 50m away and our best guess was confirmed when we made this easy find
The cache container contents are dry and in good knick.
Took nothing but memories, left nothing but footprints and our tag.
Thanks for the cache jon, yvonne and ebony

This cache has taken us into a bit of the park that we have never seen. TFTC
Spending some time in the area, we are doing a cache a day in our attempt to complete our 366 straight days of caching. L 1 x TB TNLN TFTC
