Had come out this way a while ago and found a couple of nearby caches while I was supposed to be working, lol. Headed out towards this cache and when arrived at GZ read the hint. After a few minutes of looking Black Flag 001 made the find. Nice hiding spot, signed, returned and TFTC.
Nice quick find for Mrs RoddyC this morning. You either love or hate nano caches!
Found at 10.45am on 29th June 2016. TFTC.

Was extremely hard spent over 2.5 hours but found it look at rocks and photos people have added
Thanks

2.50pm. Read the hint so only one place it could be. Actually one out of two and we got it at the second place,
Thank you. David.
Thank you. David.
Alas I could not find this one today. Now, I am looking at the photos and yes I did look there and I do not know how I could not find a cache of that size where I looked.
Found after bit of searching. Hate those strip logs trying to get them back when you hear voices approaching.
Location distance kept changing, we looked for ages but still no luck... Frustrating!
With a nice cloudy day, we headed out for a day of caching.
A simple hide, but it still took us a while to find it.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Wolfie007, for us and others to find.

Went out for another late night hunt for caches tonight with geoboyfriend, and our "geokids"...
GPS was not willing to settle for us, so we opted to look through logs for clues to go along with the hint. The caching newbies were hunting in the area, but it wasn't until geoboyfriend headed over that it was spotted where they hadn't yet looked!
Found with kdawg92, R3db3ar & Shammy01011101. TFTC!

Last cache of the day with new geo friend geobikerchick. What a lovely area, walking paths scattered around and over the bubbling creek. Got to GZ, phone initially appeared to be pointing to a bush - hmm, that doesn't look right. Thought about area, combined with clue, and voila! The cache! All in good condition Wolfie007.
Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga2 at 11:32am. It was a short walk in to GZ and a relatively quick find. TFTC
Today we explored Springfield and surrounds using geocaching as a guide.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Kids an I tried for 30mins, no luck. Any further tips would be appreciated as we will come back again.
Sister was disappointed looked for about 20 mins could not find it could the co please it has not been moved. THX
After deciding to spend some time in Springfield today, the recent finds here encouraged me to have another shot. Holy cow, the nano was in my hand in two minutes flat. How on earth did I miss that last time? TFTC and thanks to the recent finders for persisting with it.
A cooler day and out on a caching day with Teambenders. As it was late in the afternoon, we noted the string of DNFs and discussed whether to invest in walking to GZ. The joint decision was to stagger on.
At GZ, the coords put us around 3-4 metres off the obvious hiding spot but we decided to take a side each and focus our efforts on the structure. As it turned out the cache was on my side. It was exactly where the Hint suggested we look I did drop down below the rocks and prised the cache out with a stick.
This is a sneaky hide... na na na na nano
TFTC Wolfie007!

Out with Ms Maddy on a caching expedition.
After so many DNF's we decided to go have a look for this cache.
We discussed the area to search and I reckoned that's where it would be.
The coordinates were a little out and so we each took a side to search and Ms Maddy found the correct area and came up with the cache.
Another unloved cache to add to the list. 267 days since last found.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Wolfie007 All good with this cache

I ran over from the Edge to save time, but after a quick scouring here and there, let it go as time was short. It was still rather dark which may or may not have been a problem. Until next time...
Today we used our last free day for a caching tour, before I start a new job in Brisbane. Nice area. Thanks for hidding, but we couldn't find. We looked and looked but we couldn't see anything. Anyway nice area Greatings from Germany. Loves JaKa
After walking down through the streets from the newly built train station, I ended up at GZ. I've been to enough of these types of hides before, but that didn't stop me looking in all the wrong spots. Up and down, over and around I looked, before feeling around a couple of spots. I felt the familiar container, and pulled it out. I'm not sure where you got this type of nano, but it's a great improvement of the existing type, and makes the log extraction far easier.

Nearing the end of the day, and I just need to find three more cache. This was one, and was glad to make the quick find on what looked like a new location.

Cache has been replaced/changed and difficulty reduced. Now a Micro.
Happy New Year Everyone !!

Another 3 star difficulty. Well we have had success on the pebbles trail so far. Thanks to the sharp eyes of caz17 this one was also in the pocket.
Cache was sitting out in the open on the top of the bridge - local muggles must be considerate! Nothing in the log since the 4th. TFTC
Found sitting on top of handrail. Tucked it back in a spot as per a earlier cachers pic. TFTC
Second Ausey cache nice track around the lake. Cache well stuck in its hiding place

My 200th find, out with misssusan and we had to get this one so I could get my 200. I found this one reasonably quickly, my phone battery had died so just started looking and I got it. Tftc

Found very quickly by the D-Man while out with him and Net88... this was our last one for the afternoon as he the D-Man was 'starving' and getting a bit over it... it was starting to get close to miniature geowhint to be picked up from daycare... AND we had a massive cubby house to build when we got to my place!
Was great to finally add a few more to the Whint & Bad Dal tally... to creep us ever so slowly closer to the magic triple figures!!

Found this cache whilst out for an afternoon of caching with the rare but wonderful Whint and Bad Dal and the now over it D-Man2006.
As we approached GZ we had a small idea of where we needed to be but as we got there D-Man2006 surprised us by finding the cache in a few seconds.
Thanks for the cache Wolfie007

I had contemplating walking from the lake to get this one but decided to drive closer to it instead.
I wonder how many of these little bridges are around the area? They seem to be everywhere. The do make good hides for caches though.
Only 1 muggle passing by to interrupt the search and then I spotted a bit of colour which gave away the hide.

Took a while to find the right way in and then the GPS was bouncing all over the place. Used our caching senses and soon spotted the cache tucked away. Thanks Wolfie007 and Pebbles.
Found with stairman1 and my geodog Zack. Zack accompanies us to all caches. Today while we were looking for the container, Zack decided to jump in the mud while chasing a lizard. I wasn't impressed at having a wet and dirty dog in my car.
Anyway we signed the log then headed off to the next one. Thanks Wolfie007.

Happen to be in the Area Visiting a local Doctor and had sometime after to venture not tooo Far out to Claim some caches.
We followed Jelly_fish at first but he was going the wrong way by far (He did not even have a GPSr) but we ended up at the required location and it was Jelly_Fish that come up with the cache on opposite side of my GZ. The path and bridge was quiet today.

Another Mad Friday on the southside with svn07 and teamdfl, this time to rack up some numbers for svn07's upcoming milestone
One very jumpy dog greeted us on our walk At GZ we all went to different spots to look, and I got lucky. It's nicely tucked away. TFTC, Wolfie007.

Freaky Friday screaming around the Springfield area with IolantheK, TeamDFL and the ring-in muggle SS. What a great day it was!
We met a super friendly and somewhat over excited young border collie on the way to this cache. Didn't take tooooooo long to pull this one from its little hidey hole.
Thanks for the cache, Wolfie007. Cheers, svn07

Went for a quick walk after work, had to wait for a few muggles to pass before searching. Was hard to find!!
Another one for us today by the CO. The cache was quickly found as it is was not quite hidden. I added our name and added some extra cover to hide it a little better.
Log and cache all in good condition. TFTC

These four new icons around the lake seemed a good way to kill a little time on my way home from down south today. This was the first of Pebbles' series so parked my car in a side street and may way towards the park. I recognised this area quickly from a previous hunt and was surprised when the GPSr pointed to the same general place. I had to wait for a couple of dog-walking muggles to pass before commencing my hunt. Must be a good place to walk a dog. I started where the old cache here was, but that was always going to be a long shot. A little look around and spotted something out of place and quickly led to the cache. All good inside. Signed and replaced as found and off for the next one. TFTC Wolfie007
Out on the bike this afternoon, I had arranged to meet up with Gaz'n'Kab to have a go at the other two Wolfie007 caches that popped up recently. As they had snared this one already, I swung past on my way down to the lake... [^]
With a 50/50 chance at getting GZ correct the first time, I blew it and chose the wrong way as my first choice. Luckily it wasn't long before I corrected my mistake and had the container in hand when I got to the right spot...
Business done and cache back in place, I jumped back on the bike and followed the path down to the next one.
Cheers Wolfie007.
