Bug no longer here. Appears to be frequented by muggles as they have left their phone numbers in the log. TFTC
Tftf . Found with sis n neph while we were here visiting 4 holidays and introducing them to the game.
Stop the car good only 9 metres away. Get out of car 6 metres check compass for direction. Walk 2 paces then needle swings right around walk a couple of paces and needle swings again. Forget compass and walk to obvious place. TFTC

Found it!! Nice easy one!! Found this one on my way up to watch the sunset! TNL lucky charm TFTC
QEF once I stopped looking for a burned-out stump! Dropped off the "Bavarian Aussie Boy" travel bug (TB4Y5TR ).
No sense of disappointment here for us today - and awesome views to go along with the find. TFTC
I never made it up to the peak of Mt Archer when last in town, so when I got away from work a little early this afternoon, I made a bee line for the Mount... [^] I paused to grab this on the way up and after arriving at GZ, the container was quickly in hand. Name added to the log, I tucked everything back and continued the ascent.
Cheers The Talent.

Find #3122 we had come up Mt Archer today for us to pick an older cache and a few more ,as we left Yeppoon it was raining and when we arrived here it was still raining and misty ,so a quick grab for this one and the others were left for another day TFTC
Yes, it did bring a smile. The cache has a broken lid which would allow water in at the next rains, and we tried ringing the CO on the number on the cache but it was "not connected". So we completely replaced the cache container and transfered the contents. Dropped off a TB Gecko we found out west because he wants to travel Highway 1. Found at 12.15 pm on 1st June 2015. TFTC, The Talent.
Thanks for helping me out RoddyC! Sorry that my phone didnt work. I leave it off during work, but I did get your txt. I appreciate help maintaining my rocky caches
Only find in a drive up the Mountain in the fog and driving rain. Should have been an easy cache but I'll blame the rain for my troubles
Out second find this morning. Only at 9:25am, our second find today was accomplished. It should of been 1.0, it was easy. It was fun this time. Our eleventh find ever.
First find was great!!! Did it in the dark which made it tricky but great find
Today is our last day in Rocky so we went in search of some local caches still to be found.
This was a great morning, & a variety of caches were found.
Thanks for placing this cache The Talent

Found very easily in the dusk after a couple of DNFs further up Mt Archer. With Dyanna. No trade. TFTC
Had no problem finding it today! No needles to put us off searching either! TFTC!
Visiting my mum, Nana, and Peter from the US. I was kicked out of the house for two hours and this was my second stop. No problems here except for the mosquitoes. Left TB. TFTC! [B]769[\b]

Thought we found it.. But no it was just a black box filled with needles inside! Eek, got rid of that quickly so no one else has that problem! But after that we had no luck!

Grabbed this one on the way up the mountain and it was an easy find. Was planning to grab some other caches up here but the weather closed in and the drizzle started. Not much point walking to views if you can't see anything so might try them when we return after a day or two in Yeppoon. Couldn't believe how good the weather was when we came down off the mountain compared to up there. Thanks.
Personally escorted to GZ by none other than CO himself. It was pitch dark outside, but a hand torch and great cache name/description did the trick. Thx again, TT, for a fun tour of Rockhampton and TFTC!
Our first cache for our 7 week trip to Cape York.
Our car had some water in the diesel that we bought in Moree and we limped into Gracemere to visit family. We cleaned the fuel filter and bled the fuel system and decided the car needed a good run up a steep hill, what place was better than Mt Archer for this. We stopped part way up to locate this cache which Mrs Shifter located very quickly.

Nice quick find on the way down the mountain. Not so nice being eaten alive!! So many mozzies around after the rain. Tftc
Easy find on a beautiful evening, no walkers out this late in the day. Took trackable.
My 272nd cache.
Thank you for a nice hike around Rockhampton and Mt. Arthur.
Regards from Bavaria.

Cruising up the mountain past the walkers, joggers, and assorted exercise enthusiasts, we were happy to see none in sight at GZ. Given the purpose of this cache, we didn't even bother turning on our GPSrs and true to the description, made a very relaxed find regardless . Loads of chirping insects and what sounded like a confused owl made it a more pleasant stop, too. TFTC, The Talent. =^.^=
A quick find on the way back down the mountain, in fact was able to park a few metres away. Which was all good as it was getting a little warm!
Found with MrMeccano on the Caching in the Hamptons weekend.

Our first stop for the day and a quick find. Surprised at the number of walkers on this road. They must have healthy tickers!! Thanks The Talent
Flicking everywhere but easy find.
Met up with The Marble & La Kedi heading down Mountain.
