Costco Canberra Canberra International Airport, Australian Capital Territory, Australia
By The Notoriously Gay Duo (TNGD) on 20-Mar-12. Waypoint GC3F008

Went to grab this one whilst we were over here but could only find the magnet and no Cache

looked like grass had been recently cut and we found little strips of paper that looked like they could have been from the Cache.

May need to be checked

.

Took a while but found in the end

Tricky cache but good find.

We are heading out towards the airport to do some caching.
We do not have Masters or Costco where we live so was interested in looking around in these 2 places.
The caches we found were varied & in interesting places.
Thanks for placing this cache The Notoriously Gay Duo

Is tiny cache

A quick grab in the rain while out looking for a tent.

TFTC.

Good find not many muggels around and only a short walk from two other caches

I had to enlist the help of geohubby for this one. Took me ages to get the log out then I had to ask geohubby to help again. SL TFTC TNGD !

#548

A quick find after lunch, I'm glad there's a couple here to find, Thanks TNGD for the cache.

Log full and torn needs replacing.

First container of that sort I have found. Log damp & full. TFTC TNGD.

Our first find!

A quick find while shopping nearby and playing Ingress for the Resistance. Log book is full and paper is disintegrating. TFTC

Twas the day before Christmas and all through the ... anyway, thought I'd get out even though there would be thousands of muggles. There were but they were all focussed on shopping. This was any easy find - not so easy to reach for a shorter person. The cache detached from the magnet and was pretty tricky returning to its location. Thanks The Notoriously Gay Duo

Another quick find and another smiley. Log book is close to full

11/12/13 (found with hdcrees): This one prooved to be a challenge. Not only was there a lot of muggle traffic this is certainly not for the vertically challenged without assistance, a long stick or good team work. TFTC SL.

Found with #anderka also needed a boost! Tftc

Another tiny cache! This one was tricky... My geofriend had to boost me up to grab the cache! Thanks!

Found with EdenDanny on a Sunday afternoon adventure around the airport precinct.
TNLN, TFTC.

found with CSfamily. TFTC

Good hide. TFTC.

Great way to make a costco visit bearable! TFTC

With a bit of team work we got it.

As always these types are quick and exposed , pick your time and don't look to suspicious, use the invisibility cloak. Haven't been inside one of these stores as yet as shopping is not my kind of sport. TFTC

I had had some errands to run in Fyshwick a few weeks ago and did a drive-by of this area but soon bailed on any idea of attempting it during weekend trading hours. But 8pm on a Saturday evening is gold. My height (or lack thereof) often causes havoc with these sorts of hides and sometimes it does take me 3 hours. No tonight however as I finally figured out how to use one of my longest serving caching tools to my absolute advantage for these things. Too easy - I will have to remember that technique for future finds!

The Booos spent the weekend in the ACT and we found this one on our way home thanks

The Booo's have packed up camp and are returning back home after a long weekend of caching around Canberra.

This was our first stop as we began our trip back home and quickly found this cache to begin our trip home.

How standards change. If you tried to publish this cache these days, there'd be no chance, as it'd be seen as promoting a commercial business. Mind you CostCo has a pretty weird marketing model anyway. They won't tell you what they sell, and they won't let you look inside the store, until you sign up as a member. They obviously rely on word of mouth only.

Nabbed this one while the circus was performing on the other side of the road! Hopefully everyone was more interested in that performance than in my own.

TNLN - Thanks to The Notoriously Gay Duo!

P.S. Thanks for helping me meet the conditions for [url=http://coord.info/GC3PTYQ]GC3PTYQ[/url]!
Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

Found this a while ago
Thought I’d update my finds only a few weeks late
Very well hidden fun search
TFTC

Found this one during a quick visit out this way. Tftc

Lochb came in search of a coffee but with a cache in the way, what choice did we have but to stop and find it? Mr CF quickly had the hide to hand. TFTC.

I was surprised to see a Costco here... I thought we had the only one in Melbourne? Quick stop before looking for a place to have a cup of coffee. Found in the company of ControlFreaks. TFTC

Geocache #685.
Found on Tuesday, 10th September 2013 at 10:03 AM.
Conditions: sunny with strong winds.
Current streak #41 days.
Today's finds 16 of 35.

My 584th find for The Great Scouts Australia Geocaching Competition 2013. With just over a week of the competition remaining, I had some leave owing and decided to take it for a geo-adventure in the Australian Capital Territory and Canberra. What a way to celebrate Canberra's centenary, as well as the Federal election!

On day three of my trip, and after completing the Planets power trail early this morning, I continued the search for more caches in the mid-morning and afternoon. Once at GZ, it was a quick find and I soon had the CIH and signed the log. The cache was rattling around in the wind so made sure I replaced it in a way that it would be a little more secure. TFTC The Notoriously Gay Duo.

Found it! Talk about hiding in plain sight. Easy to see but not easy to extract with all the Saturday morning muggles. Got it in the end. SL TFTC

Beyond my reach but found with ease. TFTC.

Eyyyyyyyy looking suss with jonestrotters and having the AFP query what we were doing made this cache worth freezing my butt off. Tftc

Lol my ass doot off AFP hunting us down with bur299 found though my god its cold out tonight

I'm 5 ft, bit of a struggle!

The 14th and last find on the 18th day of the 31 days of geocaching After a big geomission around Mt Ainslie I thought I'd swing by and nab this one as the time was right. It was after hours and after dusk-so that meant the place was deserted and an easy park and grab Lucky I had my telescopic magnetic cache tool in the geobag-made retrieving/replacing easy (I'm too nerdy for pole dancing [:o)])! Cute hide! Thanks for another crafty one TNGD

Found while passing on the way to other shops.

glad to see this one back up, the american in me couldn't contain itself so i HAD to finally go get a costco membership while visiting lots of pumpkin pies, doctor pepper and cheese sticks stocking the fridge. tftc

Found quickly, very easy to see.

Found the entire cache. Took logroll out of container and then proceeded to lose entire container inside our car somewhere? Searched and finally found logroll and top of container but could not locate the bottom bit have put back in its place but container will need attention. Logroll slightly damp also. So sorry

List the bottom of container. Will need to be replaced, sorry

Quick find today

Quick and Easy find on the special souvenir day

The log didn't blow away which was terrific on another blustery winter's day. SL TFTC

Found these caches with my family. we spent the day walking around and driving around the airport. It was so much fun, I love watching planes! TFTC!

Found with the family on a rainy caching day, we had heaps of fun watching the planes. TFTC!

The hard thing about this cache was the muggles parked right in front of the thing! With patience I eventually grabbed the cache and replaced it, who knew Costco would be busy on the weekend, lol. TFTC!

2013: 180 Days In A Row - Headed out to the airport to pick up a few caches today. The weather played up for us a bit, but we managed to pick up a few caches. A busy spot today - but Fraggles managed to get the cache and put it back. Thanks for the cache!

Decided to make my trip from Sydney to Jindabyne more interesting by stopping by to find caches. Funnily enough, I I accomplished these all in ugg boots.. hehe.

This was find 6 for my trip. Easily found, hard to put away :/

#625 - 21:15; Saw this one come back online a couple of months back, but hadn't had a chance to stop by sooner. The opportunity for a quick drive by after closing time on the way home after bagging a multi and a puzzle from the 'to do' list presented itself tonight. The find was also made much easier now the Circus is no longer in town. TFTC TNGD

Quick find before work whilst the muggle factor is low.

After dropping off someone at the airport thought would do a couple of caches before heading home, spotted as soon as got to GZ. Thanks

Good quick find but due to height depravity, we had to use one of M's bike panniers to gain some elevation. Not many muggles around early Sunday morning.

A surprisingly quiet spot in the late afternoon - phone call camo was still required to provide the illusion that I was actually stopping for a legit reason other than finding a nano! . TFTC.

Stop, grab, and run! Great for a start to the afternoon.

Quick park nearby cache on our monthly or so visit to Costco and one of their hot dogs, yum. TFTC TNGD

TFTC!

Found while making a visit to Costco next door.

Quick find and sign. TFTC.

Found at 12:30pm. Would love to just go in costco and have a look around. Nice to the circus in town too. SL TFTC

Parked in the right spot! TFTC Maybe some shopping now???

My apologies for the late log, I found this one with Liv81 as she continued her streak. A quick find on a lovely day near a venue for one of my other "hobbies".

TFTC, Fun -

Super quick find on a gorgeous autumn afternoon spent with Shadow!...TFTC!

Does it get any better than jalapeno flamers from costco and a cache? Nope

Finished cosco shopping so need to get the cosco cache. TFTC.

Tftc

Ready to go again! Good hunting!

Went to change the log on this one today and it appears to be missing. Will get it up and running again soon.

First for 2013 - tftc

Thanks

Our 900th.
A nice easy find.
Christmas Day, car park empty.

A weekend in Canberra and I found a whole day clear to do my first ever caching in the ACT.
This is my first in the ACT as well as my 1700th overall.
A very quick find that took me longer to scribe than find.
Judging by the number of caches in the area I'm gonna be busy today.

Cheers and happy caching.

Parking is easy.

A quick find. TFTC.
