This one keeps going missing. We will find a better spot and replace with a new cache.
Had a look today and it is underwater as Burpengary Ck is flooded. Will check again soon.
Cache appears to have walkabout again - disabling whilst we consider our options.
Catching up on some late logging, a shame to see that this one is missing at the moment. At first we had no idea how to approach this one and then we found a suitable parking spot and went for a walk. The water certainly appears to flow hard here when it is raining. SL TFTC
Had a big day chasing cache 2 on water 18 on land and 1 DNF. Lots of fun on the water, just didn’t get out early enough. Had fight the tide back. And drive around Burpengary and Morayfield nearly bog the Ute. Had big clean up when got home TFTC Slow Puncture. #1155 D11
This was our second attempt at trying to find this cache, first time it was missing in action but this time it was a quick find for Cooper. Thanks to the owner for replacing this cache for us to find.
**# 24562** Found on our 2019 trip to Qld for winter.
A fine Autumn day for a drive around Burpengary with Simber15.
Not that many muggles around here today and mostly good quick finds.
Thanks for the cache Slow Puncture (LJCC),

Oh dear! Checked something and ignored it. Told Roostaman it wasn’t there. I’d looked. Turns out it was there! But of Cache blindness today!
After scouting for cache hides I was heading home and thought I just had to stop for this one. Third time here - its a great location. Had to move fast on this one though as muggle council worker was blower vaccing nearby. Thanks for placement Slow Puncture and the smiley.
The SPs were out today on a maintenance run.
Visited with some TBs whilst we attended to the cache.
This one received a replacement container and logbook as the old one had gone bye byes.

There were some muggle workman digging in the creek but fortunately for us they were intent on their work and not worried about what we were doing

Our geomosters started at a new school today, so after they'd been introduced to their classmates and instantly joined into the school activities, Sandra and I headed home via this cache.
As we walked under the motorways we spotted a couple of places we though the cache could be and it was in the first place we tried.
Thanks!!

Found at the first spot that I looked. Rather a large number of discarded socks found underneath here, wonder what the story is?

Grabbing another cache nearby, we decided to then stroll on over, or rather under, for this cache.
Upon arrival, I made a quick find - unfortunately there looks like dog poo bags have also been discarded here, and I had no gloves on me today.
Omen Innuendo climbed up a little for a look up top. He then asked me to join him and just as I did, a truck went past and honked, which made us jump and laugh!

Hell of a job dodging all that traffic to get to this cache
Got there in the end

Slightly creepy hunt on this dark & stormy night, but we eventually found the cache at 4-6m off GZ. An actual party pooper decided to drop a bag of dog right next to the cache, but thankfully He-Squirrel grabbed and returned the cache to its hide again with no mess.
Mr johnwillem wandered off to make this easy find while I used the facilities at the park.Walking the path there was a clear line where the water has risen in recent days which given the low levels today is surprisingly a huge amount of water! glad the cache remained dry and cheers for the smiley.
Very cool location for a cache though it felt a little nerve racking having all those cars driving over my head TFTC
Tftc couple of times we are looked at this one but too much water today was a nice easy walk and cache was soon located all good with it
Quick find after negotiating the underpass - with all the recent rain the creek is certainly not stagnant today and has recently been over the path. TFTC
My best friend found it. She really enjoys this. Love being able to introduce her to a whole new look on life tftc
A rather rare visit to the lesser side of town with Echocage1 and Selva Girls.
Well that was nice and easy. Mud is still all over the place from the floods. Debbie perhaps?
Log signed and replaced. Found at 2.40pm on 25th June 2017. TFTC, Slow Puncture.

After doing a nearby cache, this was a short walk down the underpass to this one and a nice easy find. All in good condition. TFTC Slow Puncture (LJCC)
Working myself up for a climb then realized i didn't have to. Tftc slow puncture

This one received a new logbook. Ready to go!

GPS sent me here, there, up there, over there, no round there .... was starting to pull hair out when I stopped, actually looked and, cache in hand, signed, replaced. Tricky!
Team Ireland- BOOYAH!!

I have been to the doctors across the road from Lest we Forget so grabbed that one and this while i was here. TFTC.
All OK.
All OK.
Out for a hunt with Selva Girls this afternoon. She had already found this one and since it very close to where we parked, we walked down the path. An obvious spot to place this one and thankfully tucked away from prying eyes. TFTC Slow Puncture
We found ourselves in the area today so we decided we should take some time to find a few caches while we were here. We had no difficulty today and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our way.
Thank you Slow Puncture (LJCC) for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy.

A pic from a previous goecacher reaffirmed my suspicions but i had a 2nd closer look before laying hands on the blighter. Hard for me to get down low nowadays tftc
2122 - On my way home from a day trip to Bribie Island for a game of golf, I stopped just off the Service Road and went for a pleasant walk to find this one. I found the cache in the obvious spot and signed the log without going anywhere at 6:07pm. It took me longer to get the log book out of the container as it was stuck, than it took me to log my visit here. Thanks for placing this cache here Slow Puncture.
This took us longer than necessary, should have just let our caching skills kick in instead of following a gps that stopped moving!
Heading from ANZAC park had a cool walk to GZ. Found in the first spot that I came across. Log was a bit damp but could be written on. TFTC Slow Puncture
Out and about and this one was chosen for todays cache, after walking on the wrong path then realising that I needed to get on the other path I moved the car and started again. So this time im on the right path get almost to GZ then a family on bikes ring their bells to let me know they were behind me and scared the crap out of me i jumped so high lol, they then asked me if i was searching for pokemon. I was saying to myself "think quick" and next minute "yeah I am someone told me there was some down here". Few that was close lol once they had gone i signed and replaced and just to let C.O. know that log and snap lock bag is wet, sorry i didnt have any replacements on me. TFTC
Thanks for bringing us to this spot. So many cars passing overhead unaware we are hiding underneath. tftc
Coming back from visiting a friend, we just were under the bridges when the rain set in today. Okay, one quick grab - slippery when wet - and we signed the logbook. Spotted a turtle in the creek .... tftc
Dropped off visiting friend to her grandparent and thought I would grab a couple of smilies. Easy find.
Stopped at the park for lunch on my way north from brisbane and decided to check for nearby caches.....a-ha..just over there...
Nice quick find with no muggles passing by.

My geobuddy and I were headed to our chosen caches for the afteernoon, when I suddenly realised I was near this cache and it was one of the caches I needed to fill my hidden date calendar. I have less than twenty to go, so I am now starting to pay attention to this. We parked the car and wandered along the path towards GZ. Before we knew it, we had passed GZ and had to double back. The cache was quickly located and the log signed. After rehiding the cache, we continued back along the path to the car and continued on our way. TFTC

Just for a change we decided to focus, mainly, on one CO.
Slow Puncture (LJCC) was our choice for today.
All up today we did 13 SPs & 2 Ring ins.
This was 5 of 15 in total.
Managed to get close to GZ without getting caught on the motorway.
A short stroll in a nice cool environment soon had us at GZ with a quick find to follow.
Loved the Hanging Gardens on the way in! LOL ...
Signed & returned as found.

Once I figured out where to park and where to walk in order to arrive at gz, I was able to locate, sign and replace cache completely unnoticed. Nice hide SP. TFTC

Camped at Caboolture for a few weeks, and headed out to enjoy the beautiful weather.
There was a good of variety of hides, some a little tricky.
This cache was found after a short search, and in good condition.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Slow Puncture (LJCC), for us and others to find.

Another find couldn't fit the signature item in TFTC signed the log though
Out on a maintenance run following the recent floods. This spot got it bad - refer pics.
Yep, this one was still there but the recently replaced log was all wet and so has been replaced YET again...all good now
Visited with some TBs whilst we were at it.

Logbook wet since disastrous flooding in last couple of weeks. Will replace soon.
Glad I got this one before the big wet!
It's getting harder and harder to grab a close by cache these days so I've found myself over on the dark side today!
I found a close spot to park and snuck down towards GZ. When I got below the road I realised I was on the wrong side!! So, up and over and around and under and now I'm a little dizzy!! ARGH!
Lucky I found it quickly!!
