I have reason to believe this one has met foul play. I will check it out when I'm back in the area
Hmm that DNF isn't good. I dont know when I can come out to check on it so i wait to see if someone gets another one ill disable it until I can
Logging this as found to clear it out of my finds feed. Note to anyone: Im the person who does coastal caching it was my hiding account.

As I spotted the cache and grabbed it, I dropped it fast when I realized there was a huge spider clinging to it. I don't know how large Australian spiders usually are, but by my North American standards, it was massive. Removed the spider with a stick to sign the log. Thanks for the cache!

After finding the Creek Walk 1, we also found the cache hidden here. This was actually my first own find in Australia, as my girl Miss Bij seems to have the best nose for caches Down Under.
Being here all the way from Holland, I really enjoyed the fact that on this day we could actually find some caches, because we already had a lot of DNF's.
We didn't stop for some fishing, but walked on towards the botanical gardens.
Thanks for the cache!

We were walking until gochild found it. We saw some bird nests along the way. Thanks for the cache.
Found quickly. My Geo-sense is on fire today - this makes 4 from 4, and none taking more than a minute or two of searching! ) TFTC.
Good quick find after crossing over the creek on the newish road bridge as we were parked east on the other side in the bush ... TFTC
The temperture is at the creek better than anywhere else. So i decided to go on a bike trip to these cache. Nice location. Clean and dry cache.

Stopped in with Batdos while we were cycling around town, getting him a few local caches. Container is in good condition.
As I help hide it I thought I should log it as a find. However only doing this after it has been claimed by someone else for ftf.

After a failed attempt down the track a nice quick find was what we needed. Thanks!!!
Nice little walk on a showery day. Cache was exposed and easily seen. Logged and put camo over it. Thankyou Coastal Caching
Holidaying without the pushies so I walked a few hundred metres to GZ this evening. Got to 0m, switched the torch on and it was pointing right at the prize. Thanks Coastal Caching.
A straightforward find after a pleasant stroll along the path. TFTC

Realized that one Havoc-maker had inadvertently found this cache a couple of years ago when he fell out of a tree!
Started foraging at GZ, lifted a saucer-sized piece of bark... and what was underneath? A snake! I think it was just a tree snake, kind of cute, not the dangerous-looking type. At any rate, it quickly uncurled and zipped away. Then I noticed a tick! It fell on my bag, rather than on me, so that was good, I just flicked it off I didn't need another tick bite after the one I got at The Bunker last night!
So, you could say there was plenty of "wildlife" at this cache for me today It's a very nice spot, late afternoon, around 5pm as the sun was setting. The cache was easy to find. TFTC

Last find of the day during a mountain bike assault on a few Coffs caches. The eco-tracks in this part of Coffs are a great ride and I wanted the geo-crew to ride along both sides of the creek. However, they had had enough riding along the northern side so I left them in town and rode back along this side of the creek and via the cache on the way back to the car. Many thanks!
What a great spot. Left the pen in the car so took photos. Please let us know if you would like us to send you some pics for proof. (Found with 'Doogle06') TFTC.
Coffs Cycleway 2: Nice fishing stop was transferred from Team Zawadzki to user Coastal Caching
After finding 'Lets go swimming' continued on to find this cache. Have learnt to check map thoroughly as we were on the wrong side of the creek. We put that down to still learning. What a fantastic day for geo-caching.
Signed log and replaced.

Continued on to No2 and walked over the bridge and along the path. Got to GZ and saw the cache. SL, TNLN and replaced again. 2 down, 1 to go. TFTC.

Found on our trip to the Gold Coast for a wedding. Managed to get a parking spot nearby then it was a nice walk to GZ. Lovely location, very nice to walk through. Loved the lights under the bridge as well. Got to GZ for a quick find. Left TB. TFTC!
A nice easy find next to the BIG tree hanging out over the creek.
What a scenic spot in the heart of Coffs [^]
Most tourists would never realise what a gem is hidden in the heart of the city along this creek [^]

A top spot but we don't do the fishing thing so just found the cache and then sat on the seat and enjoyed the quiet.
Only met three muggles on our walk to this one and they were all on the one mobility scooter. Talk about overload! And there was a dog on there too.
Thanks.

Very quiet on the cycleway, but that's not to say there weren't any muggles. All of a sudden they'd just quietly appear, it sure kept us on our toes. TFTC Team Zawadzki.
Impressed with the tree. Found this while riding our bikes on the cycleway. Left a penny. TN. SL. TFTC.
In the area on a short holiday with my family. Decided to do some night caching. Love the huge tree. Easy find. TFTC.
Found and nice little walk way very green lots of birds took key ring and left one two no TB cache dry and signed TFTC
After camping too close to the highway last night and having a bit of a restless night we got off to a bit of a slow start and still travelling with The Drovers making our way towards Stanthorpe picking up us many caches that we can get whilst we are towing.
Having no bikes we had a very nice walk to gz watching a couple of young kids in canoes shoot passed us. Once at gz the cache was located quickly and our names are added to the log. One thing that we have to say about this area, the tree leaning out over the river certainly has a good grip on Mother Earth.
Thanks guys for showing us this location

Travelling north with Team Crackers, we enjoyed the drive and and the great views.
There was a variety of cache hides along the way, and all well hidden.

Finally got around to this one, easy access from Hogbin Drive, reached for my pen and "Oh oh!!", left it at home, luckily there was enough burnt wood around so I was able to sign the log (sort of), TFTC Team Zawadzki!!
found this cache today at 1015
nice walk along the cycleway, although the mozzies were a little fierce and I found a leach on my leg when I got back to the car.
All ok with cache

Another great cache in a beautiful area. We would not have known of this area without these caches being here so thanks Team Zawadski for placing this cache here. Geohubby would have enjoyed the opportunity to do a spot of fishing but today we were on a cache hunt. Surprisingly we saw another signature in this cache for today. We hadn't spotted any signatures today in any of the other caches we did today. (Hello 4 Stars). They must have picked up the trackable as it wasn't in the cache.
Walking in the cool of the late afternoon has been so enjoyable. I even found myself jogging. Quick find. Tftc
Awful weather today, nice stroll on the pathway to GZ, easy to find hide well, TFTC..
Found this one with Dad & our friends on a really wet caching day. I dropped off a TB.
27/01/13 3:18 PM. Cache #408. Current streak: 140 days. Torrential rain in Coffs meant I couldn't do heaps of caches on my birthday like I had wanted to. (Boo hoo). After lunch at the Park Beach Hoey Moey, a slight dip in the level of rain so I made the most to keep the streak alive. Parked just north of the bridge and we all went under the bridge, following the creek around to gz. Spotted a likely hide and Yelyac went in to grab it. Finished signing just as the heavy rain picked up again. I grabbed the TB to move on back to Sydney. TFTC }:)
Looks like a rat has been caching and couldn't get the lid off this one;) There's a huge hole in the side with teeth marks in it!

Catching up on logging after a long christmas break. Coffs was my last stop on the trek home. The traffic was manic as it was another hot day so I had to limit my stops. TFTC Team Zawadzki. [1521]
(Late logging of Find - 31/1/13) Found with MAP's and Cookie.
Nice to be able to share the driving rather than having to pedal.
At last another 2/2 cache! Spotted a graffiti 'artist' on the way in.
Lovely spot, and just a few muggles

Getting on to tea time, but always a good time to cache or fish.
As the others in a our road trip said, we came across some muggles trying to be artistic, by only seemed to be graffitying.

1800 GAFF1 A few muggles using the path, but mostly in pairs so you could hear them talking as they were coming. Had parked on Hogbin Drive (on returning to the car I surprised some budding graffiti artists - who said they had permission, but I cheekily said they needed to lift their game, as it really wasn't art!)
I think I left a Ziploc bag, and maybe even an emergency logbook for the scraps of paper.
Glad I had MAP'sand MVMtBiker for company on this road trip.
Brought through for mileage: Through: CITO Tag, 3Bros, Lighthouses, IconicBridges, B2B, Baa, Neigh Neddy and Oink, Signal 2006, and 100 Finds achievements coins, Red Racing Ninja #4 TB, and trackable shirt.

A very nice walk along these cyclepaths. So calm and peaceful when most people are elsewhere. Cache is in good shape, but could have use for a decent logbook instead of pieces of paper.
Shouldn't try these without drinking water on hot days but I did and found and SL.
