Our second from the morning. Quick find signed log and returned..

A pretty view with the lights shimmering off the water, with Castle hill silently watching over the city, bathed in light. To preserve space I signed next to ANEHands as HP. Looks like it could do with a thin write in the rain log strip dropping in at some point in the future. A great style of cache that has been mimicked a few times around Da Ville.

Day 8 - the last full day of the Crooked clan's biennial trip to Townsville to visit the rellies for a tropical Christmas. A busy day today, so I only had limited time and slipped out mid morning to grab some local caches.

A nice quick find exactly where I expected it to be. All good here. Many thanks, corikra

Quick find of well hidden cache in an interesting spot thanks for another one corikra
 
27-May-17
Found at 2:50 PM GAFF1.
Great view from this spot looking out to the west - after we got to the right spot that is Red Face We made a bit of a blunder and went down the east side of the bridge only to suddenly realise that it was not a Terrain of 1.0 area [B)]. Then we suddenly spotted where we should have been and where the access to that spot was.
Thanks corikra.
Feedback: Giving it a FP for the great views.

As we crossed the bridge our GPS was telling us we needed to turn around and then go under it. Mr beetle didn't like the idea of that so we turned around, found somewhere to park and walked up the footpath. Once at gz cache was quickly located in a hide type we've found many times before. Thanks.

A cache a day in June.
Walked up castle hill in hope of finding an unloved cache there, this was the back up plan.
Another safe find done.
Even as it was a grey chilly day the river was busy with fishermen

Went for a drive looking for caches around Townsville this afternoon.

I arrived near GZ and found a parking spot and went for a short stroll. I quickly found the cache in its hiding spot and signed the log.

"Scrat" visited your cache whilst on his Great Aussie Adventure.

Enie Menie Minie Mo and geoD came up trumps. A few days spent stuck in bed and it was good to get outside. Fortunately not too long a walk as geoD is less than ambulant at the moment.

Yippee! Have been waiting for this cache to get up and running again, damn muggles...TFTC Smile
 
06-Jan-14
Due to it being compromised before I decided to place the new container a very short distance from the old one (and not back in the same spot) Smile
 
19-Dec-13
Hoping to have this one up and running again soon.
 
19-Sep-13
Looks like it's been smuggled, see log below. Will check soon and try to replace.
 
19-Sep-13
Unfortunately it has been muggled, searched today while Danzfox (who had sucessfully found it prior to my attempt) waited for me...confirmed with Danzfox and yes it is definately gone.
 
07-Sep-13
I remember coming down here years ago and I think you had to take a dirt track in from the civic theatre? Maybe I'm remembering it wrong. Anyway very different nowadays. We were here for the bridge opening and now back for a less muggly look for the cache. Caching goggles were on today and cache was found in the first spot we checked Big Grin. Thanks corikra

On my third visit to the GZ, I decided to check the clues and look outside the square to find it and was pleased with the result. It is only my 10th find. TFTC.
 
03-Aug-13
Quick find once we reached the GZ. TFTC SL {#280}.
