I have had a couple of goes at this one, as I'm staying nearby...but I don't believe it is there.
Couldn't find it in designated location - a lot of overgrown foliage making it difficult to hunt which might be why we couldn't find it - a lot of bugs in area as well
No luck for us this time, spent a bit of time searching but think we may have been searching in wrong spot. Will try again later.
Found it this time around, don't know how I missed it last time. Took nothing left nothing..

Had a fun time finding this one! The coordinates were a but off but that makes it funner for a bit if a challenge! TFTC SL
Second attempt for this one we found it. Weststigerskid searched one side while I was on the other and I came up trumps about 7 metres from listed coordinates. The cords I found more accurate were I was standing only a metre from gz have been added to log.
Found today with geodad(weststigersno.1). He took one side of creek while I was on the other. Heard him call out got it. Another smiley on my map. TFTC
Golf, a great way to spoil a good walk!
Thanks to mraussieadventurer and clear skies from TeamAstro.

We saw that this one had been found recently so we went and had a look. Yes, it is there, we found the co-ords out by about 8m,s and not really near any pandanus, perhaps it has died. The cache is in good condition. TNLN SL TFTC
Not sure this one is still in play after an extensive search. please check on it.
Searched everywhere within a 15 metre radius but no find on this one today. Will be back after owner does a maintenance run to ensure its still in play.
Not sure where this one was, I searched high and low through the GZ but was not lucky enough to sign the log. May need to be checked up on.

Another day in Cairns, on our travels around Australia.
Cache was found out in the open, signed the log and took the trackable
to move it to a safer place. Covered cache with extra camo.
Thanks for the cache, mraussieadventurer.

Pouring rain but we still went for the walk to this convenient one. The last of our Cairns trip. Just as I noticed the GPS was showing it to be close and looked up for a good spot SaharaH99 was already holding it. Two quick finds today. TFTC and the nice walk.
15:45 - No muggles to disturb the search, thought I was on the wrong side at first then the GPS settled.

Out and about on a beautiful Saturday in Cairns during my 3-day caching holiday.
This was a nice break to get to as the sun was beating down and I really did need a walk in the shade to cool down a little. Hence, this one is perfect in the mid afternoon sun.
I love it when muggles are occupied and totally oblivious to my presence or actions - or both. They were too busy chasing little white balls around the grass to notice me going about the hunt. Great description as I soon had the prize in hand and signed the log.
TFTC mraussieadventurer Cache and container all in good order

A quick walk with one of the juniors after being stopped for a breath test. The policeman knew about caching and suggested some around town. TFTC
Found it No. 8141 ... quick find .... TN and left Geocoin ... TFTC mraussieadventurer
Nice and easy! After this rai the greens look amazing! Might have to come back for a round this weekend TFTC
Quick easy find.
Russmoz don't trust your GPS distance in is about right but it's on the golf course side of the stream.

Up in the Cairns area for a week and decided to do some caching too! Quick walk and find, our first in Cairns.

Went looking for this one at night without much success. Came back during the day and made the find pretty quickly. Funny how it always seems to go that way. SL and TFTH.
Found this whilst in Cairns on a short holiday. Whilst looking for this one we had a couple of golfers come up and ask us if we had seen thier golf ball come over so it was a bit of a help for us whilst looking for a golf ball for fellow golfers which we found and they went on thier merry way quite happy, we then went on and found the cache after getting quite a few prickles and spikes from the pandanus palms that Mr Wanderer didn't realize were prickly, Mrs Wanderer also got a few and she knew they were prickly. This cache is our 500th find and in Mrs Wanderers original home state and on Mr Wanderers birthday and near a golf course. He played golf in his younger days. This find will hold a few memories for us.

TFTC. After getting prickled by pandanus I found it at the beach almond! Left golf ball I found nearby.
Found on my trip up to the tip of Australia whilst staying in a nearby Caravan Park. A beautiful area even in the heavy rain and once I got on the right side of the river it was a fairly quick hide. A bit of spiky and very interesting flora nearby so I slipped my gloves on and grabbed it. Nice sized container and dropped in some swag though the hiding spot is a bit precarious. Sorry it took so long to log, I've only just got Internet connection now.

A nice walk along the fringes of the golf course. On arrival at the GZ we assisted a golfer to look for his wayward ball....just a perfect excuse to go hunting through the area. Did not find the golfball but found the cache. SL Took TB Left pig TFTC
Whoa they are some prickly bushes, lol. Left $100 travel gift GC Took key ring SL TFTC
Brahms6 found this one. Bit disappointed that I did not find any golf balls. Took trackable to move on.

08.25 - 1 of 9 for today and final section of project 'dirty dozen'. Found cache amongst a golf ball (bonus). Quiet spot this morning. +/-0. T4TC.
Lots of muggles around today. I didn't have any gloves so I gave up on the prickly search. TFTH.
FTF at 7:30.. My first 'FTF', yay for me. An early morning Anzac day bike ride and I had the camouflaged cache in my hands.. Be careful of the residents who live close by- I was spotted and quizzed by a friend who is a resident over looking the GZ.. Took: nothing Left: an octopus! TFTC:)
Found at 8:05am, but not FTF. Lab0879 has beaten us to the find, and not only that she caught us leaving the scene after we had logged the find. Good to put a face to a name, we hope to see you around more often. This is a nice big cache container with loads of room for swaps and hidden well. Pity I left all my swaps at home again. After last nights efforts it all seemed too easy in the light of day. Mind though, the muggles close by have a eagle eye view of the cachers who try to find this one and they will no doubt get curious as to why so many people are interested in this spot. We again found 5 golf balls this morning while searching, so you could always use that as an excuse.
Thanks mraussieadventurer for this new cache, Well done, keep them coming..... I will remember the scars for days!

FTF after Lab0879, Spinneout and Wazza & Kara who took us for a Cache outing. Fortunately we did not loose so much blood in our search. [^]Daylight can be really of some advantage [^]. You can also recognize much more how lovely the area is.

We found this cache with Walter and Ingrid.
We were fortunate enough to follow Spinmeout's blood trail from his previous evenings altercation with the pandanis trees.
Armed ourselves with gardening gloves, we soon had the cache sighted.
We took two golf balls which Walter located while searching for the cache and left Bigfoot's Croc - Legendary Creatures trackable to commence its Australian adventure.
Thanks MrAussieAdventurer. You certainly do get about Cairns with your caches. Excellent work.

Arrived here at 7:30pm with a torch and phone. Found the spot and looked everywhere we could without getting too spiked. Managed to draw blood a few times and gave up searching after we were spotted by muggles who would not leave. Discovered 4 golf balls so it was not a total loss. TFTH Will return tomorrow with gloves.
