Visiting from Canada. Quick find as we have seen this type of hide before. Thanks for the cache.
Well I was hoping for a really good run. Even thought I had this one worked out, but "Not Happy Jan" was about as close as I could get.
Lovely one thank you. Our first like this. Took a fair bit of searching and for us the hint didn't help. Great cache all the same. Thanks.
Found while visiting from the South Coast of WA. Nice memorial and easy find at GZ.
Found while in Cairns, on our travels around Australia.
Very interesting to read up on the history.
Cache nicely hidden with appropriate camo, log is nearly full.
Thanks for the hunt today, biggles58.

Took sprinkler system apart several times but its not there....then thought of the clue....I must have had rocks in my head...bingo cache was found.
Nice cache and a nice way to remember. I had to chuckle when I found it, as I just created a cache up the road with the same container. Thank you.
Decided to make the most of having the hire car for the last day. Drove down from holidaying at Port Douglas to clean up a few caches on a geomission After finding Picture This, I strolled over to GZ to start the search. GPS had me walking here and there for a moment but I ignored it and went to a likely spot-where I saw a familiar but "something not quite right" hide! I love these ones Thanks for the cache, biggles58. Love the variety of your caches
LOL, the hint was great and could see gz from the carpark but then geokid took me in a different direction for some reason so I started looking 'high' instead but to no avail. After consulting the gps it was back to the original spot and found easily. Geokid was surprised by the cache so nicely done. TFTC.
After searching a nearby structure without success went back to coords and found immediately. Reminded us of an old Dylan tune. TFTC
A lovely park and a very interesting story. It is lovely to see that these plaques are placed to jog our memories of what has been. SL TFTC
Amanda found this one, using her detective skills. My first find like this. Very cool. Great story too.
Fangsoki and I managed to get this one on our second visit to the spot. Our caching day north of Cairns and this was the next one that needed us. Our first pass saw some kids in the park.. oh the inconvenience!
We grabbed a couple of other caches and came back to a deserted area, now that's better for cachers! The GPSr led us in to the spot and for me the cache stuck out like the proverbial. A quick sign of the logbook and rehide before the after school rush TFTC biggles58

Captain Terror and I were visiting the area for some caches.
It took us two visits to get this one. The first time, there was a child utilising the park. How dare they! On our drive past, we found the child had gone. We drove in and found the cache relatively quickly. We signed the log and moved off. A nice little area.

We googled and found the clue, but it didn't seem to help. Geofriend opened eyes and found after second visit. Found in the dark!!!!
Didn't expect for cache to be at a different feature. Hint helped and bear made the find.
Another good historic history lesson

On our visit to Cairns decided to do the northerly caches today. Met up with Flyboy7 at this cache and together we searched around where GPS wanted to take us with no luck. Then moved to a possible alternative only to find the cover in one place, the bottom in another and the container elswhere. We both signed and then reformed the cahe as it should be.

This was out second visit to the site. Cannot believe the position of the prize. After reading the hint last time, realised I was looking in the wrong direction. Clever hide.

Did not quite understand the meaning of the hint. Will rethink and revisit another day.
Weather is closing in and it is starting to rain...no time to loiter.

Liked this one .... Once you work out the clue, its a matter of looking for a needle in a haystack
Found on the 2012 Tour de Eclipse. Cache found in the last place we looked. I left my swaps in the Pahero and I did not have anything of equal value in my pockets. Thanks for the cache guys, we love your work. We got the hint about three hours later. Doh!!
Found on the great Eclipse Trip of 2012 with Freddo.
A solid day caching around Cairns saw us get rained on, shined on, made by ecliptophiles, shined on and then rained on again. Awesome fun. Hint left us behind - well not really. Think we'll be using that one in our hides!
Thanks to biggles58 and clear skies from TeamAstro.

We have seen hides like this before so it didn`t take too long to spot it. A previous log also told us what the hint meant ha ha!
We couldn't understand the hint but the cache is hidden on accurate coordinates and by standing looking we soon discovered the hiding place. Nice hide! TFTC!
No luck for us today, looked about in a few spots but not knowing about THC the clue was no help. One for another time.
Easy find on and early morning cache spree.
Great walk around the reserve.

This took lots and lots of searching and the clue threw me totally on a different tangent but we didn't want to give up and after a lengthy search cache in hand very sneaky
11:20 - Found this cache together with Walterhellmut. Well, it took much longer than it should have to find this one. Still not sure about 'THC' and its meaning. T4TC.
This is only showing how innocent Avoloz and I have been not knowing about Tetrahydrocannabinol and its effects.
Anyway, we found it after all and are proud of it.

Spent 15 mins at GZ searching for the cache. Finally found it after sweating in the hot sun and tearing our hair out!! Excellent hide
Very sneaky hide. It took awhile to find and about to give up but bingo I had the cache in hand. TFTC SL
Visited the memorial site and had a read of the inscription. The GPS was adamant that the cache was not too far away.
Had a read of the hint ...... hmmmmm. Stood back and perused the GZ before making a selection. Bingo. The log may prove a little reluctant, so Biggle's comment regarding an extraction tool should be noted.
A very sneaky hide Biggles58 in a nice, quiet and secluded park area. Many thanks for the cache.
