Logs
I have archived caches which I think may still be in place loaded in my GPS but it is not until I read previous logs on the GPS that I find that they are archived so it is was that I headed to this one without realizing it was archived.
A quick find of the cache and I opened it to find no log in it but I have taken a photo of it and returned it to the hiding spot.
TFTC Ozibags I love discovering archived caches.

No response from the owner within the last 28 Days and as per my original note this cache has been archived. If you wish to replace it please submit a new cache via [this link](https://www.geocaching.com/play/hide).
The Co has contacted me and as he is out of the country with very dodgy internet he will enable this one soon, when he is back in OZ.
I am in Bargara for four days maintaining some of my hides up here. Staying at Kelly's Beach and noticed three of Ozibag's hides that need some TLC. I have placed some Rite in the rain log sheets inside a middle size Bison, black, and this is inside the original hide. All Good to Go. John, you might like to do a maintained log on this one.
Found quickly by my Special Geoson. 3 Out of 3 today, we are on a roll. Log is damp but usable. Replaced zip lock bag. TFTC Ozibags
Sadly I had not read the owner's log for this one. I had not come prepared for maintenance on the geocycle. The log book was a bit damp, but it is still very useable.
The container has suffered a ding and I think that may be why water is getting in. A new container may be the best solution here.

I'm away from the area for a while so could the next person to visit this cache please provide a new log sheet in a sealable plastic bag. I would be most grateful. Thanks, Ozibags.
We had a lot of fun finding this one. It's such a sneaky little cache and of course we searched everywhere but the obvious part. But eventually we found it. TFTC!!

Very sneaky hide and love the effort. Midges out tonight unfortunately. tFTC
Thanks for the informative lesson on soldier crabs! Love the sneaky little hide... Replaced some camo.
We always enjoy Bargara and so it is always great to find caches that have been hidden since we were here last. Replaced the log.
Thanks Ozibags
Thanks Ozibags
Cool this is our first time looking. It was exciting for us and the kids. The Chapmans
Been the weekend in Bundy for theWWFM 2014 and stopped off in Bargara to visit a dear friend and thought I would do some caching whilst I was there too. heading back to Widgee today.
Clever little hide !

Found log ok . Was badly in need of repair. Replaced container and log. All Good .TFTC
Found it. Hot Christmas Eve. Keeping the grandgeos occupied whilst parents doing last minute shopping.
Good easy find and interesting hide. Until you get out of the car and walk about you do not realize how big this recreational area is. TFTC
Despite not usually liking things that crawl I'm beginning to really like these little guys so was a little disappointed not to see any. Still another lively park that would never have been found if it weren't for caching.TFTC
Nice and easy find. None of the little soldiers popped the heads up here today, amazing creatures they are though.
Found by Sunshine Toledo and Her Majesty at 11: 5am. Once we found the right sign we found the cache; another good hide. No soldiers in sight today. TFTC
I marched right up to GZ and within seconds had a nicely hidden cache in me pincers
Thanks for the ride by cache on a beautiful, sunny, rummy, Bundy day [^]

Nice easy find for day 30 of 31 days of geocaching. Log is damp & has been very wet at some point so needs replacing. TFTC.
Just arrived in Bargara and took the dog for a walk and thought "I should see if there are any caches around and it appears I was only 50 meters away. Will come back tomorrow to sign the log as I didn't have a pen on me.

**** Cache number 4,000 ****
Today we took a drive to Burnett Heads, and down to Innes Park.
A nice walk to GZ, this cache was well hidden, log damp but all ok.
Thanks for the cache, Ozibags.

Found with mapn and Blakey snakey. We thought it might be frogs but that didnt match the clue.
Out and about today with Trenton8or and Mastamak.
At first the title had me wondering but when we got closer to GZ it became all clear. There was no Soldiers out today, but we could see evidence of them around. It was Mastamak that once again pulled this one out, great hide! Seems a little out of place to have no path next to this sign but we have seen that all over Bundaberg.
This was the 7th find of 21 for the day. With can you believe NO DNF's, So it was a Fantastic Day!!

Have just relocated up this way and thought I'd take my geo kid for a leisurely walk and grab a few caches. Dropped off a tiny TB.
2 more inches with this high tide n the cache would have been under water. tftc
This cache was next on the list as Dad and I traveled south for a lovely afternoon out. We parked roadside here and I headed in. I immediately recognised this area from a previous cache visit. During the Great Bundaberg Caching Trip of 2011, Fangsoki, Gaz'n'Kab and I found ourselves here chasing a multi after well over a hundred caches in only 2 days and it was at this same spot that we threw in the towel. I recalled the mental exhaustion of that day as I made my way towards GZ.
Once there and with no muggles about I looked where we did last time and quickly found a nice hide. I sat on the grass to sign my name before rehiding as found. As I walked back to the car, two ambulances went whizzing past at a great rate of knots. TFTC Ozibags, a nice area here

Found on a day caching in the area. We didn't observe any of the soldiers described here today but after a quick search we did find a cache. The area Muggle free today so we could search in peace. Thanks for bringing us here to this interesting spot anf TFTC.
Very quick find at 1345. Took a guess that I Knew where to go and what I was looking for because I had completed the former multi successfully. Walked towards the water with no one around and arrived at a certain spot and had a look and yes there it was. Completed lg and reurned container to its hide. Everything fine and dry. TFTC Ozibags
