Cancelled this cache. The site is frequented by drug uses.

will have to think about a new spot for this one probably. It is a prime location for druggies unfortunately. I don't want anyone coming across used syringes in the garden bed!!!
 
23-Feb-13
No luck with this one. Soooo much rubbish (litter, bongs and possibly needles) that we were reluctant to really get down and dirty. Pity as it is a great spot.Smile
Look out for the nearby Asparagus Fern - very prickly little sucker Sad.

We dropped our friends off at the airport and headed here to defeat this challenge. This one took awhile and it wasn't near where my GPS said it was. As soon as we took a seat to think about it the cache was staring us right in the face. We're happy to have this one checked off our list. Beautiful camo. TFTC
 
23-Nov-12
"Fell over" this one while looking for Where Eagles Dare. Nice easy find. Thanks fizz62.
 
21-Nov-12
What an awesome view. We had to pick up a friend from the airport so stopped in here to waste some time. We got to the park and some people were sitting at the top so we had to watch the view and wait. We did an extensive search but couldn't find it. Unfortunately our friends called and we had to get them. Fortunately, we now know what the cache looks like from the previous logs. Excellent camo but we'll get it next week.
 
16-Nov-12
This was the first one we looked for and found! Can't wait to find more!!!

Windy day at the beach today. Nice views though. TNLNSLB. TFTC
 
03-Nov-12
Made the short walk from your nearby multi-cache to this one. Lovely view again and a good cache to drop off the "Penelope Pig" TB. Signed the log and strolled back to the car. By the way, nice camouflage job. You'd make a good sniper Big Grin
 
In luck again as I found this one too Razz We walked from the lookout down to this one - was a steep walk back to the car. Lovely views from here as well. Thanks for bringing us here to enjoy the view. Cool
 
03-Nov-12
Great view

Noo82 and I stopped to find this one on our way back from dinner. We headed towards GZ in the dark, I was not going to start poking my hand into dark crevices so I went back to the car to grab a torch out of my first aid kit. I wasn't gone long before I heard a "yoohoo" so I ran back up, but not before noo82 had claimed the TB! TFTC
 
13-Oct-12
Having a fantastic day.
 
12-Oct-12
After having her last dinner as a Rixon kateRX and I thought what better way to end the night than a quick cache. We pulled up the car and made the steep climb to gz.
Being dark we searched for a few minutes before kateRX headed back to the car for a light. Meanwhile I found it and gave a quick signal for her to come back to the top so we could sign the log.
i took the TB and left some earrings.

04-Oct-12
A beautiful day on the coast and after a DNF at a nearby cache we were hoping to have some luck with this one. A bit of a hike up the hill but a nice quick find. Not by me though, today was heyniceroosters day to spot the hiding spots Smile Teamwork I say Smile TFTC I also dropped off a TB that I had picked up in Crows nest on the weekend Smile
 
03-Oct-12
Found this one with KangaKleat - it was our first ever cache - taken me so long to log it, it has been archived! But I still found it! TFTC.
 
03-Oct-12
We missed it the first time. Went back and was telling my son where we needed to look. Told him to "check behind crossbeams like this one" , put my hand behind a joist - and voila! He just blinked at me in disbelief - and of course, I had actually wanted him to find it! Yeah, just like that son - only next time you can do the finding! TFTC Very Happy
 
03-Oct-12
TFTC ! Took tb Smile
 
02-Oct-12
We took a drive down the coast to Coolangatta from Surfers where we were staying. Had a quick walk on the beach then decided to find this cache while the Mrs waited in the car. Quick walk up the path and found it easily. Dropped off a travel bug I had carried over from NZ. Nice hide. Thanks, d4d

Smile TFTC. My son returned later with a swappable to trade for something that he liked inside. Then we had fun trying to get his swappable into the box! Our first geocache! (Getting stumped by a bunch of others - guess we just don't have our heads into the right mindframe yet).
 
01-Sep-12
Over on another visit from NZ and we turned our morning walk into a cache hunt. Nice hide. Removing and replacing the lid was tricky due to the local wildlife having attached themselves to part of the camo. Thanks very much fizz62

After getting a bit of a shock popping the top off what I though was a log full of pencils turned out to be syringes!! we found the actual cache. all in good order and a perfect spot. A shame about the abusers. We dropped them off at the local Station thought so hopefully its a clean area for the next visitor. TFTC
 
15-Aug-12
This was a very nice one, with a nice place to sit and calmly do the log. We took a nice photo very close to sunset.

Hmmm an interesting one this. The junior Beansos found a cache in the area. But it turned out to be a container of drug syringes hidden in the garden. A quick check of the hint and we found the real cache just a couple of metres away! The local police were very interested in the original find!!! TFTC
 
29-Jun-12
Lovely easy find!! Kids enjoyed the hunt and the view. Took fish bone and will drop it off further up the coast!

Once we were able to find a suitable parking spot, it was an easy walk to GZ where accurate coordinates led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. TFTC fizz62.

Down this way taking my daughter to the airport at the unearthly hour of 5am, I couldn't possibly come here without doing some of my favourite game and I have some free time so I had to see what smileys I could pick up.

I parked the top side of GZ and took the path down and after a bit of GPS wobble I had my prize in hand.

Thanks fizz62 TFTC SL TNLN

I thought I would be smart and approach from where I had parked the car last time. I had a bit of a fail - but then I found the right way down.

The rain had kept the muggles at bay and I found the cache instantly. I signed the log and re-hid it as found. I hope it is supposed to be that visible? The cache was in good condition otherwise. TFTC fizz62 Smile
