Despite the roadworks and the previous dnfs we stopped and had a quick look. No luck. I understand this is supposed to be a tricky one but not a single dnf for 7 finders followed by a string of dnfs (including If) may warrant an owner check on this one please .
As a cache hider I am sick of negative comments. I am strictly only going to find for the foreseeable future. It's such a shame as my kids enjoy placing caches and reading the positive comments.
Spent quite a while searching before I read the previous logs and realised I was wasting my time
There did seem only one spot at GZ to hide a cache
And there were not that many places to hide one [:o]
So I was quite surprised after 10 minutes when I had not found the cache.
Maybe it has blown away ?
I checked the surrounding area to see if I could find anything lying around.
Nothing

A new trail of caches to find in Townsville so I was duty bound to pick them up on my return after work. I started at the end as that was the closest to where I was working. Stopped at the bus stop and looked all around not realising where I was supposed to look. Clicked and then I found it with a stretch. I signed the log and replaced. It's not that secure though and I wonder what will happen in strong wind. Anyway 1 down 99 to go???
Thanks!

# 786 Got the notification that the flood was coming, but was out and had plans for most of the day.
It wasn't till 3pm before Boss Lady said "Hurry Up and get them"..... Sweet.
We mounted the C+2M Ark (The Cache Ranger) and took off head long into he flood.
At the first on our trip, this cache was quickly found, and as expected being in Condirtoville, found that we where second to find.
SL discovered TB/GC's TFTC

Last one on my return trip to Townsville.
Thanks to C2M for placing it just out of my reach [{:)]! Lucky I found a device nearby that I could use to help me get the container.

#303 FFTF !!!!!!!!!! My First FTF and my first of 4 caches...
I was at home cutting the grass on the tractor at home, and went into the house for a drink. I went to my room to check the iPad for emails, and what do you know! 1/2hr earlier caches caches had been published nearby! i saw the two and that this one was closer and since everyone was outside working decided that this was the best option for the moment. I went outside and got my mum to take me down to the cache. We were soon careering down Hervey Range Rd, in a desperate attempt to get my first FTF. On the way i was saying: Champs is probably already there... Cat and Bear would've gotten it by now, they live close to there... ICP wouldn't let this get away... etc. Anyway, we were soon at GZ, and thanks to the clue, soon had the cache in hand. I opened it, and grabbed the log... FTF!!!!!!!!! pretty happy with that. Grabbed the tb codes and dropped one of mine off. Not sure how long this cache will survive in the location it is in ATM...
Thanks for the cache AT502, and i'm looking forward to the rest of this flood... TBs enjoyed their visit
