Yes, this location is no longer viable. So time for the end of this end. A new cache elsewhere in BanYobbo land will be created shortly to house the necessary clue from here. In the mean time if you are truly desperate for it gimme a yell.
Couldn’t find again. Lots of new construction here wondering if it’s gone?
After the boardwalk loop in Nudgee Beach I decided to continue my bike ride back home via this area collecting some caches of this series.

Out and about with swearah today grabbing some caches. Nice quick find here, tftc
Jodsta83 and I parked around the corner and wandered over to GZ. I muddled about while jodsta83 made a quick find here.
With another one in the series done we did a quick check for the next location and took off. #focused

No joy for me today. I gave the fenceline thorough going over, but couldn’t find anything that resembled a cache.
While I was still in the area, hunting other yobbos, I got a handy hint from the CO. I chucked a u-ey and went back to make the find. Thanks pprime’
Signed and return, glad to mark this off after February dnf. Psst, the "snake" was a blue tongue
Had to postpone my mountain experience by another day, but tomorrow that foot WILL be OK!
Car caching to collect a few finds.
Doing Sunday laps of Banyo, what better way than this to celebrate our freedom?!
A good road to lay down some rubber this one
Thank you Pprime for this cache

Lots of overgrown grass and some dumped rubbish (perhaps on theme for the series??). I was just about to red* the logs for clues when I found it
Found it, the area is full of overgrown grass so don’t recommend going with out another person as we saw a big carpet snake in the long grass
Found crawlies that would not lead us to the treasure. I don't know how I miss it but perhaps daylight is better suited.
Ironically “it’s not the end of the road” was on the radio as I pulled up this morning.
Quick find. Beautiful day. And yet another stunning tree to keep the Lorax happy.
TB visit. TFTC

Finished work out by the airport today, so whilst driving past I thought I’d grab some caches on the way through.
There’s still a few I needed to grab from the Ban-Yobbo series so I grabbed a few of them and any other caches in between also.
Had no trouble with this one. Found it straight away

Seeing the picture of a snake at GZ really point me off, and I got a bit squeamish. Patrol14 soon stormed in and made a quick find, putting me to shame. TFTC.

72nd cache found in Queensland City Of Brisbane.

After attending the nearby CITO, nathanjhunt and I teamed up for some caching in the area.
Parked close to GZ, NJH searched quite gingerly after seeing the picture of the snake but luckily we didn't need to search under the rubbish, as cache found quickly in its hide.
SL then returned as found.
Sign at gate suggests this location could get busy if construction goes ahead.

**# 24596** Found on our 2019 trip to Qld for winter. 
A fine Autumn day for a drive around the Banyo series with Simber15.
Not that many muggles around here today and many good safe hides.
Thanks for the cache Pprime (P`),

Found after a short look, on the way even bumped into a real banyobo! But we all friends now TFTC
We are feeling very happy to have collected a yellow smiley for this one, since at GZ but on the ground directly below was what looks like the bottom half of a tiger snake. The rest of the body through the other side of the fence and we could see it when we looked through the wire. We were very quiet so as not to disturb it, and it didn’t seem to want to move too much. Nonetheless we got out of there pretty quickly.
Thanks Pprime,

My second find for the series. As a Banyo local I have always wanted to complete this series. We were walking home from a play date at the park/library and found it. Didn’t have a pen so couldn’t sign the log book. TFTC

Chance for at least one more cache, I headed down here to a very quiet end of the road. Cache found immediately, I signed, making sure to take note of yet another clue, then replaced and headed back to car just as a train left the station. And with still more time to kill it's not yet the end of the road for me.

Picking up momentum now.

I'm loving the variety of caches in this series and how quickly I'm finding them!! Perfect for after work grabs. TFTC
We decided to head out today to do the "Yobbo" series. Loved the various observations of yobbo lifestyle. We made a quick find with this one today (this was our quickest find of the series) and noted the clue. TNLNSL TFTC
My imaginary friend turned the corner into this street and had to slam on the brakes quick smart. A very short and quiet road with a big-ass gate leading nowhere. What a strange place. This reminds of one of those nonchalant places that time-travellers and inter-planetary visitors use as a portal to travel to Brisbane. And we thought that muggles were the muggles. I hung around to see if the Tardis appeared but it didn't so I went looking for the cache.
All the time I was here, not one train went by (admittedly I wasn't here long). I was keen to see any kind of train running because I here the network is under pressure. tftc

Today the three of us targeted this area so the teen could do some driving practice in a quieter urban area. We collected 9 before we were muggled out at the park, realising we would have to come back in the future the teen decided to call a stop to the days driving and we headed for home. All the clues were noted and hopefully we will be able to finish the series next week.

Cache#2 of the series and #2 for the day. It's amazing the places you visit while geocaching. I had absolutely no idea there was a road leading to nowhere here. I'm embarrassed to say it took me ages to find this one. My phone had me in a different spot and it was only when I looked further afield that I had my forehead slapping moment. Really? I think I'm going to be making things difficult for myself today

This had us singing a song, " Although we've come to the end of the road, still I can't let go....."
Fortunately this one did let go quite quickly, signed the log, noted clue and replaced as found.
Completed a 21 point turn the yob's be proud of!

Did feel a bit shady driving up to this gate. Don't think the people in the train were too bothered though. TFTC
Love it when you just walk straight to it and it's in the first place you look. A nice easy one. TFTC 
This cache was the next one closest to me so off I went.
Very quiet down the end of this street today. I nearly walked into a massive golden orb web but the cache was located in the first place I checked.
Baking hot by now so I retreated to the car to sign this one.
Thanks for the hide Pprime.

Caching afternoon around Banyo after saying goodbye to Nadine1989 who has now returned home to Germany after a two-year stay in Australia. We are in the company of Nurseyjulie and Selva Girls,
Parked nearby and thought we knew what to look for. Yep, there it is!
Log signed & replaced again. Found at 2.10pm on 18th December 2016. TFTC

This is indeed the end of the road for us as there was a very large precluding gate here. Some people might be able to get further along here, but not us. But that was o.k. because we didn't want, or need, to go any further than this. We could almost call this a park and grab. We found the cache, signed the log, replaced as found after taking note of this cache's clue. Cheers Pprime and Thanks For The Cache!
