Way off GZ, if you trigger the dog you know you are getting close. Spoiler photo helped, and log book still damp but still signed it. New note pad would help. Tftc
All good with this cache. Still hanging around waiting to be found. The previous spoiler pic is not current. If the dog is barking then you have gone to far..
TFTF ( the entire log book is soaked unable to be written on, also is off from the geo mark)
As I am caching out of state am unable to rectify.If anyone comes along can you please replace the log. GZ is hard to settle on because of tree coverage etc. Happy hunting anyway.
Had a look using new coordinates, but dog still barking and cars whizzing by made it difficult. Didnt want to disturb the locals too much so gave up after 15 minutes.
We dropped by this cache expecting an easy find to continue our streak. While I clamored around the rocks, M did a little reading and discovered that it was nowhere near said rocks! Our GPS had it at nearly 20m from the posted co-ords when we eventually located it. All to the serenade of the nearby pooch [:p]Thanks for find #5045TNLN
Yes the cache was 20m out and from the looks of the hiding spot, probably was shifted. But other than that, it was a great cache to find while killing time in rocky.
Found those geocache with some help from the property owner once his dogs started going mental. The cache coordinates need to be updated, cache is not in rocks, about 20m away from that spot. He said to me that some caches.have beenlookong for this cache in the middle of the night. It would.be disappointing if members of the geocache community where being inconsiderate like that. Thanks for the cache anyways.
If this cache is 20m out then it has been shifted. As I am out of the state it will have to be serviced in September.
Hahaha Mr Muggle about to mow his lawn yelled out to us. “If you are looking for a geocache it is in that tree over there” Well he was right and in no time the log was signed and we were on our way. Tftc
Pretty easy, but definitely lots of places it could be that are misleading. Put some cash in there and took a necklace that was left there. Great spot!
just hanging around to find this one. Then off for more in this lovely leafy suburb
Great Northern escape 2022 Day 118. Rockhampton Day 4. I was out for a full mornings caching, mainly to the east of Rockhampton. The highlight was an old Multi that took me on a great walk. Then I went back to Gracemere to get one I could not do on Sunday due to the crowded event.
I spent way too long clambering around on this slope, but I failed to find this one today.
Thanks.

Found it! however neighbours aren’t too happy with the location of the geocache as it wakes all their dogs up
Didn't even have to use the hint it was that easy ay, na just trickn ya, would never have found it ayeeee
Unfortunately Diane had to work today but it's a necessary evil if we want to keep the holiday going and she didn't want me under her feet so there was one way to solve that and that was to go out and find a few caches.
It was indeed a nice little park. There were a couple of muggles exercising their dogs far enough away though so they weren't an issue. It took a little while for the GPSr to settle which meant that I searched in a lot of the wrong places. Once it did finally settle on a location that it liked I am a little bit embarrassed to say that if it had teeth it would have bitten me long before I spotted it.
I had a quick check inside and only the top of the container was three bit further up on the attaching apparatus the log book was jammed in there. I had a scratch around on the ground for the bottom part of the container but couldn't locate it so we added our name to the log and replaced it as it was.
Thanks betoady, we haven't seen a container like this before.

Second day of our trip to Townsville for the MEGA and we (Peppa, TMZ59., Imbunda and I) are heading to Mackay. Had to stop here to grab this one for some challenge or other reason.
Rocked up to the cache and started searching up and down and in and out but no prize. Changed elevation and spied the hint. Said to Peppa "did you see this?" He didn't and surprised he missed it. SL then returned as found.
Found on 10 April 2022 at 12.25pm. TFTC, pmt123.

Day 2 of our trip to Townsville for the MEGA Event and travelling with TMZ59, Patrol14 and Peppa.
Being a bit selective today as we are on a time limit to attend an Event in Sarina and adding a few letterboxes and other caches to our list. Found and log signed before replacing as found. TFTC

Day 2 of the Tour De Ville and we’re back on the road heading North…
Again with TMZ59 at the wheel of the Habanero Sport, Patrol14 up the front, and Imbunda and I in the back fighting over the arm rest…
We have a list of caches, that I spent at least two hours creating, to collect on the way up… the list lasted exactly one cache yesterday before we were getting “other” caches…
This cache wasn’t on the list, and was a very late addition… Patrol14 and I spent a long time clambering up and down the rocks more than once… it was Patrol14 who said “have you seen this?”
I actually walked past it… more than once… now the hint makes sense…

On the way to Mackay for the night as we venture north to Townsville for the Mega, with Team de Ville (Imbunda, Peppa, and patrol14). Lots of rocks and the hint had Peppa a bit concerned. But after a bit more searching the cache was in hand. TFTC.
Our second cache of the day. The log book is very damp and needs drying or replacing. Left 4 TBs and a few swaps. Thanks for the cache.

No need to rock scramble, best from the concrete. Log a little damp. Thanks for the big one.
I parked in the back street opposite GZ and with the good coords the cache was quickly spotted. That is a different way to hide a cache. All good here log signed and replaced as found. Thanks pmt123.
Only had a quick look but very talkative dogs in the area make it hard not to upset the neighbours
That's really cool! Took a trackable and left some bones from Kangaroo Island, South Australia! Tftc. Hint: it's not accessible from the road side. That's unsafe, start downhill.
My first find of this kind. Found with buttonsanddice on a geocache adventure.
TFTC!
TFTC!
Kind of easy it 's hidden in a unusually strange place among to rocks ( hint its around the highway)
DNF. I looked all around, on the rocks, in the trees, nothing. Is it possible that the dead leaves affect the hiding spot?
Lots and lots and lots of rocks! Actually there were not as many as we were expecting, and they were much larger than most rock walls we have search for caches in. Thanks to the hint and spot on coords this was a simple straight forward find. It’s also nice to find a decent sized hide in suburbia as well.
Day 2 and our final day in Rockhampton. We headed out on the caravan park side of the river. A few puzzles, some multis and traditionals. Got sidetracked at the shopping centre for quite a while, but the coffee was good. Another enjoyable day seeing the sites of town.
Thank you to all the local COs for developing and maintaining the caches for us to find.
