Last found 1st August 2014.
Since then (almost 21 weeks) there have been no finds, eight DNFs & a 'Needs Maintenance' which, apparently, has not had a response. Perhaps this needs archiving?

Pretty sure it's not here

I was in the area figured I'd have a look but as per the previous posts, appears to have been muggled.

Think this one has been muggled. Might need to be checked.

After searching high, low and left, this one still eluded us. Even though MrsGreenGeckos and I were on a numbers run, I still had to pry her away to move on.
Sad

Ve'll be baaaaack!

I found a car park in the nearby parking area then headed for GZ via another cache. It's such an awesome morning up here today, I couldn't have asked for better weather. On approach the were two elderly people doing their own form of workout right at the end of the footpath, so I wasn't going to be able to check out the view from there today. Anyway, I was trying to take a short cut across the grass when a pair of plovers started going mental at my intrusion into the kill zone. Wow they sure are territorial when they want to be. So I backed up and gave them a wide birth but they both watch me from either side of the pathway and continued screaming until I was outside the perimeter.
I soon found myself looking upon the cache but a leaving....LARGE dingy was ripping up the centre of the canal, so I watched, waited and dreamed as it went by. I don't think I could afford the diesel that thing is gunna use getting out of the bay let alone buying one.
Back to reality, the coast was clear for me to grab and sign. The o-ring had fallen off when I unscrewed it and I couldn't find it again but I saw it was split as it rolled off my finger down my arm so it wouldn't have mattered anyway.
Thanx again cleveland girl, awesome location.

No dingys here lol. Nice find for geo son. TFTC

Short afternoon caching with Dhobitock! We walked to the end of Foreshore park and spotted a sunken yacht. The GZ was obvious! TFTC!
 
23-Feb-14
Out for caching run around the Cleveland area today. Walked accross to GZ avoiding the local plovers and other little swooping birds chasing insects. No dingys out and about today as it was extremely windy. Cache found safe and well. Tftc.
 
27-Jan-14
The wind nearly blew me away as we headed across the open grass to this one. Plenty of people out enjoying the public holiday by fishing or taking the ankle biters to the little beaches here, and one huge yacht thing with its attendant jetski bobbing behind cruising slowly in. TFTC, cleveland girl and onward bound. =^.^=
 
25-Jan-14
Out doing Cleveland by bike for a Saturday spin. Another lovely spot to stop and watch the world go by.
 
07-Jan-14
Beautiful spot. Would love to sit down and relax but Everlasting and I have to move on to find more caches. TFTC.

A sunny Sunday and I am heading out geocaching again. Cool
I started the day around 0730. It is now almost 10.30 am and warming up fast. Surprised
A bit of a walk from the carpark but that is OK. Razz
A quick find and grab of the log book at GZ. Smile But then continued walking as there were a few fishing muggles not far away. Surprised
Had a look around then replaced it on the way back. Razz
Thanks for the cache.
 
07-Dec-13
Another place I didn't realize was there. A very nice place to relax and enjoy the view. TFTC
 
05-Dec-13
I really liked this one. Great view, with beautiful water Smile Should've brought bathers!

After trying not to scare the seabirds (Sooty terns, I think), Meldob and I wandered about until I saw the tell-tale sign. Thanks, cleveland girl! It was a very lonely little park today.
 
20-Nov-13
Nice new cache in place.

Watched a couple of boats coming in this evening. TFTC
 
26-Oct-13
Cache was right out in the open, log felt a little damp. Nice day out. tftc
 
07-Oct-13
Spotted as we approached gz. Very exposed and no lid but log was dry. Watched a few boats pass by. TFTC
 
28-Sep-13
Last time we visited this area we were walking - this time on the mountain bikes, our caching find rate was pleasantly much higher Smile

This was find number nine for the day. A great location with the to relax watching the boats coming in. Co-ords were spot on and the cache even easier to spot given the contrast of colours between the cache and the hiding location... Container still need some repairs!!

TFTC.
 
24-Aug-13
We didn't see any dingys but there were quite a few bigger boats for us to look at Wink

Thanks for the cache cleveland girl Smile
 
24-Aug-13
Found!!
 
24-Aug-13
A couple of fishermen and some young muggles, so a quick snatch walk away fill in the log then wait to replace.
Great location TFTC

Mrs Gunnie and I found ourselves over this way today for some lunch and a nice day out. As I needed to find a cache today to continue the 31 days of August challenge, I decided I would grab one over this part of town. I DNF'd the Pesky Waters Edge cache for a second time, so swung around to this one as a second option.

I found a vacant block at the end of the nearby street and used that to enter the park area. Following the GPSI spotted GZ on approach and scanned the area for muggles. With only a couple of anglers on the water, I was good to go and swooped on the container... Oh, there's no lid... [?]

Out with the log and in with my name, I tucked it back and made my return trip to Mrs Gunnie who was waiting patiently in the car... [^]

I note there is already a call for maintenance on the page so won't add another one. The cache needs a little tlc though to prepare it for the wet season... Wink

Cheers cleveland girl and onward bound.

Geo daughterinlaw, walked towards GZ, and located the cache straight away, whilst we were still looking closeby. TFTC.

It has seemed like forever since Geo Wife and I went out for some serious caching together and after a recent stay in hospital which prolonged the situation this just had to be the day when we grabbed as many as we could, within reason, with me still in recovery mode.

This area has been virtually untouched by us and there are so many so close together that it just had to be our choice even though we had to travel to get here.

I had picked out some caches (Probably a lot more than we would ever get to but I can dream) and an order to do them in so off we headed.

Having just picked up Forshore Park we took the short walk to this one.

The wind was very chilly but we still had that cache to find so steeled up and kept moving.

As we approached what we believed to be GZ I just happened to look around and was rewarded with a glimpse of our prize.

So that made 4 straight smilies, a small achievement I know but we were happy.

The containers lid is missing but the contents were surprising dry.

Thanks Cleveland Girl TFTC SL

Lovely spot; we arrived and watched several 'dingys' returning home after their day on the bay...

The log is falling apart and the lid is no longer hinged

Geokids found this one. TFTC

Well, in this log I am not going to mention how we may or may not have driven to GZ in the dead of night. I'm not going to mention how much fun it was. I'll just say that we found the cache and at the same time saved a lot of walking Wink Signed the cache and replaced as found.

We had to outwait some dog walking muggles before retrieving the cache but at least we had some nice looking boats to admire while we waited. We spotted the cache while standing there and made a quick grab when the coast was clear. A few people were enjoying a quiet fish here this morning. Log sheet is full. TFTC
 
30-Mar-13
A lovely breeze to keep us cool as we took in the picturesque setting. Cache found safe and well although the log is getting a little tatty.
 
24-Mar-13
We thought we had a long search ahead but then we read the hint and changed direction and the cache was soon to hand. TFTC
 
23-Mar-13
Found with The Hunting Rabbit. By the time c:geo had confirmed that Mr Hunting Rabbit was actually walking towards a cache (grrr), he was well on his way, and had it in his hand before I could catch up to him. Anyway - nice area and beautiful sunset. TFTC cleveland girl.
 
23-Mar-13
In the area grabbing a few caches with Dansync. Beautiful little park. Being on the edge of the channel reminded me of my sailing days out on Raby Bay and down to Coochiemudlo Island. There were a few muggles fishing on the bank, but they were too focused to pay any attention to us. TFTC Cleveland Girl

No muggles and no plovers and no watercraft around here today. I nice brisk walk took me straight to GZ for a fast find on this cache. Thanks Cleveland Girl for this one. A large open space here which caches the breeze that I appreciated in the heat of the afternoon today. TNLNSL.
 
08-Jan-13
Plenty of watercraft here today. However after a big caching haul on the bike, I was too tired to care. Attacked by plovers on the way to this one. TFTC cleveland girl

Fairly quiet this morning. There were a couple of fishermen at the water's edge, but they had their backs to me, so I don't even think they knew I was there. Only saw 2 boats cruising by Smile

Nice walk, good to give the kids a break from the car for a while.
Nice beach along here too.

Hitting the Cleveland area with Wombles 'n' co & Gambler200 today.

A great day out enjoying our beautiful area with IolantheK and my geoson svn05. I spotted the container this time. We signed the log and admired the "dingys".....would mind a little tub like some of these. Wink

Thanks for the cache cleveland girl. Cheers svn07
 
21-Dec-12
Out and about on the southside with svn07 and her geoson svn05 on our first caching adventure together Big Grin

A bit of a hot stroll across the grass here in the early afternoon, but we easily zeroed in on the find. Some massive toy boats out there, and some big doll houses to go with them. Definitely how the other half live, sigh... TFTC, cleveland girl.
 
02-Dec-12
A nice and easy find. The earlybirds were already returning back from the sea while others just got their muscle boats started in the canals.

The logbook is damp and starting to disintegrate already now. Otherwise all good in the cache. TFTC, OB and CG!

We were on babysitting duties and taking Amber for a drive. After finding a few caches while she was asleep we then took her for a babychino at the Point and then after a play on the swings we drove to the area for this cache and after another play on the swings it was off for Amber's first cache hunt.

A play on the beach and and we away. However, a slight accident which caused squishy boots and Amber and the missus adjourned back to the car and I was left to find the cache myself.

After checking out the sunken hull near the mouth of the channel, the cache was soon located.

Thanks for an lovely spot.
