Seems to be no response from the CO, cache is still missing from the fishing line.
Found where it should have been but all we could find was some fishing wire. Checked the ground but no joy.
Found where it was supposed to be, but the fishing line ended in disappointment. Hopefully another time.
No visits since July and others have not logged a DNF on this one.
No matter where we looked around the structure there was no cache.
Signs were there that there had been one but I think the farmer has nabbed this one.
Thanks for the view and I will return if it shows up.

Liked this one. Took a few minutes to find because I wasn't using the old grey matter. Then I started to think about it and was soon in hand. Nice view of the nearby Mt Campbell, made me remember the day I climbed to the top of it!

We missed the fire brigade on the way up. It is tucked in behind the hill nicely. We had a bit of a hunt at GZ.
We found the cache in the wrong spot. We have attempted to restring it and put it back where we think it came from.

Heading westward for a play day around Gatton with teamdfl 
and this series was our main goal for today [^]
GZ was obvious, but no cache was in the suspected hidey-hole. A look lower down revealed the interesting container, so we signed the log and then tethered the cache back in place again. TFTC Tonned.

Cache has been muggled. I have been here before and it is no longer where it was. No string attached...

Decided to tackle this trail (albeit backwards) on a day with predicted 38degree temps for Toowoomba! Well the temps hit that and above (up to 43degrees officially!) but we were in air-conditioned comfort in the car and couldn't think of a better way to spend such a hot day with 4 little kids!!
We really enjoyed this trail and the whole caching day, so thanks Tonned for getting us 'out there' on a day we would otherwise have been locked indoors!! [^]
Amazing views all along this trail. Found this one at 9am and it was already past 30degrees! we were in for a hot day!!
cache was safe and sound in it's little hidey hole!

The cache was outside its hiding place today. Needed to go for the tweezers to extract the log sheet from the container. We had never been up this side road and really enjoyed the view, even with the 40C plus temps today. Tftc, and for bringing us up here again. I guess Georges 'Pyramid selling scheme' brought you along here in the first place, and you have improved the trip for other cachers.

30 Km from home
A mid week madness run down the Range through Gatton.
A quick find with the hide spotted on our approach.
We took nothing but memories, we left nothing but footprints.
The hide, the container and the log are all in good condition and ready for the next finder.
Thanks for the cache Tonned

Hitting the Pharaoh's Trail today as we have picked up a TB that wants to go to Egypt and thought...Yep, we can manage that! 
Have never travelled past Preston. Lovely drive. Beautiful views up here. TFTC.

Had some fun panning for gold in the nearby river but didn't find any. Didn't expect to, just needed a break and that was it. Quick find but took ages getting the scroll out and even longer getting it put away. Realized Mr M had left the tweezers back at the river so off we went to find them after the cache was done. We did. TFTC
Today we went for a drive through the countryside in an attempt to add a couple more of Caches t our tally count. We started down Rockmount Rd and headed toward East Egypt. Then up the Gaton – Clifton Rd, a couple more back roads and then the New England Highway toward home.
All in all it was a pretty good day, we had a nice drive, found a couple of Caches, drove by two and had two DNFs.
Today we started of Geocacing here as we had already found number 13. When we got out of the car we were greeted to the type of view that we would expect for the area. We followed the Geotrail and made the find. The log book was signed and returned to its' hide.
Cheers Tonned.

After admiring the view quickly made the find & used an extraction tool to remove the log. TFTC
Just fantastic views! I got out of the car and spotted the cache immediately - given we're a long way from any fishing hotspots, something just didn't look right 
Was a bit of an effort to get the log out of the container but got there in the end. We had to call it a day after this one, but we'll be back to clear up the ones we couldn't get to due to road works and lack of phone coverage. Thanks so much for this series, Tonned - I can't believe I've lived here for so long and have never been out this way. This is why we cache

I had this series in my caching plan for today, to finish the Toowoomba ones and then go country driving. My last find was on the western side of Toowoomba so started the Pharaoh's Trail series from number 13, Arrived at GZ and it was a quick find as it was swinging in the breeze. Replaced log sheet correctly and replaced container in its little hide.
Took 2hours and 15 minutes to do the 13 but got held up at road works twice out here in the middle of nowhere. Now for number 11. TFTC

I saw this new series come up last night, and decided I'd head out at first light to chase them. I slept in, had a lazy day, but then this afternoon we decided to have a family drive to help settle the baby, so I thought what better place than a trail with caches. I knew the new series hadn't been logged online yet, but I thought for sure they'd have been found several times by now. Had no luck at #13, so went on to this. Found it easily with geokid #3 just before 1600hrs and was quite surprised when I rolled out the log to find it was empty. TFTC - My 23rd FTF.
Next we headed off to this one. found this area easily waved to the farmer driving along on his tractor , must have been finished for the day. Must have thought we were weird. Does he no its here?? followed the trail and whats that? not really looking for a shocking experience I headed back to the car to collect a cache removal tool. All good didn't need it, It had its own Yep second to find here
