Doesn't seem to be a good spot for a cache here. Sad
 
27-Apr-14
Checked all the usual spots then widened the search from GZ, all to no avail I'm afraid... Hopefully it's still here somewhere.

The bridge where I assume it is was closed off for repairs when I tried to find it tonight. Cache may have been muggled by the builders!

Had to wait a little while for the council muggles to do their thing before I could retrieve the cache, once they were gone it was a quick find!

Heading out for the normal Sunday shopping day and we needed a cache to continue our caching streak. Called in to this one as it was on the way a new shopping centre we wanted to try out. We arrived at a nearby parking area to find a muggle taking his dog for a nature call.
We sat in the geomobile whilst we waited him out and he wandered around keeping an eye on us. Eventually he retired to one of the nearby abodes and we were able to make our way to GZ. A very quick find was made by geoD and then we sat around for a little while enjoying the park.

Thanks for bringing us here.

Find number 9 of 39 on our cityside RRPT caching day! 41.6km over 7 hours. Many thanks to ICP for lending us their bikes [^].
The bridge didn't collapse as we went over so we arrived in one[?] piece, each at least Razz. Took the opportunity to refill the water bottles and take a breather. Cache was quickly located and all is well.
Thanks corikra Big Grin

My first cache in Queensland while I'm here on holiday. I went to find three this evening but this is the only one that came up with the goods as every where else had too many muggles.
Thanks again!

Another beautiful day in Townsville, after yesterday's rain.
We started out today with a drive to the dam, and then picked up a few on the way back.
Although this was a quick find, the cache hide was full of ants.
Signed and replaced before muggles showed up.
Thanks for the cache, corikra.

Millions of ants!!!!

Didn't take too long to find. It probably took longer to fight off the ants that were trying to build their home around it though.

Quick find on a morning cache ride through the area. I think the ants like your cache as well. TFTC

Third cache on on the Yurt and Psilonike cache grab night.

A nice easy find... It seemed to jump out at me and I was approaching it from behind!

TFTC!

Had DNFed this on my last visit and tonight I returned with an extra set of eyes and a spare caching brain in Psilonike. I was just saying this is where I was looking last time when he found it! The rain had improved the camo but I was a bit too tentative last time I think. Signed and replaced.

Thanks!

I was expecting a "Paddington terrace" which is an expensive home for yuppies in Sydney, instead it was the name of the street. I headed to the path and over the bridge to GZ but couldn't find anything. There has been a lot of water through here although I wouldn't have expected it to have carried away the cache if it's where I thought. Lots of ants all over everything and me. No luck.
Note the bridge has been severely damaged by termites - I wonder if the council knows.

Will have to try another day, didn't think it would be too hard.

Found this one in partnership with 2N's.

Once we arrived at the GZ 2N's sharp eyes had the cache spotted literally in a second.

GZ was a nice short walk from the Caching Event at Riverview Tavern.
