It appears most of this area has been cleared.
Despite a Write Note on 28/5/2015, 3 Needs Maintenance logs on 21/4/2015, 26/6/2015 & 5/11/2015 followed by 2 DNFs there has been no apparent response by the CO.
This CO doesn't appear to have been active since August 2015, a period of 7 months.
Perhaps the cache should be archived to avoid future searchers wasting their time & to free the area for someone else.
**NEEDS ARCHIVED!**

Definitely gone. Appears have been gone for several months.
Maintenance required.

I could not find the cache in the old spot or the new spot due to the bushes by the fence being removed. I assume it was found by a muggle during bush removal.
Came to look for cache today without reading previous logs. Silly mistake. Looked at original coords, no cache. Looked in new bush. No cach. Or bush for that matter. Looks like this cache was doomed from the get go.
There was no log in container. Pic is attached as proof of find. Also, upon arrival there was heavy equipment bulldozing the entire bank of the creek. I am sure I arrived within minutes of this cache meeting its certain demise. I moved cache to behind the bushes by a neighbouring fence. See attached picture of the bush. Coordinates of this location are S27° 14.535' E153° 00.282'. CO is going to have to visit this in a few days and rehide. Thanks MagnetGirl.
First ever find! Mozzies & Cobbler Pegs galore but Lil miss and Lil Mr Geo had fun. Thanks heaps xX
Cache found on the way through.
Enjoyed visiting the area and the cache. SL (WET) TFTC

Very wet, could not sign, we emptied the container
Will need maintenance and log book

First find, thanks! Must have walked 100 times before without knowing it was there. Swapped fridge magnet for smurf, TFTC
My first find! BOO YEAH!!!
Swapped my superman can cooler for a toy army man. Sweet TFTC!!!!

Aaaahh! Christmas eve. Beaudy!! I'm going out to Costco to fill up my 4WD with diesel, and to do a bit of last minute shopping. It's hot. I'm taking icewater and the GeoSchnauzers to help me get in my ration of geocaching for the day.
Thanks, MagnetGirl. I found the cache easily, in among the sharp dead leaves from the kauri pines. There's no log. I really should read the logs before I go to caching - I normally have the things necessary to fix this problem in a cache this size, but as I'm only doing a few caches, I didn't bring it with me. Cie la vie!! The GeoSchnauzers loved the walk, except for the sharp leaves.

First find. Kids loved looking for it. Mozzies were crazy. Didnt stick around. And no log. Still pretty cool though. Closed in Shoes for the kids are a must if they want to find this one.
Didn't have any mozzie problems, spider webs sorted that. No trackables in this cache. TFTC
Out caching with Crew 153 today, we decided to grab a select amount of caches on the northside of Brisbane.
After nearly running over local kids playing in a cul-de-sac (that's where kids are supposed to play, right?), we parked up and made our way toward GZ. Mr Crew 153 had the cache in sight quickly, thankfully. We signed the log and re-hid it as found. TFTC MagnetGirl_au

My Fathers Day gift from the family was a day of caching and I joined Fangsoki with a target to find a selected group of caches on the Northside.
The kids had taken over the bit of road where we were intending to park so I found a spot out of their play area and strolled back past them and disappeared down the path.
I'm sure the kids must know about the cache as it was fully exposed.
We signed the log and I covered the cache a little but I'm sure that if the kids know about it then the cover would be of no use.

I offered to pick up something for a friend as this is close to home and it was a nice surprise to see that not only was there a cache within 200m of where we needed to go, but its also a regular! In typical me fashion I bushbashed my way to the cache, got a bit muddy, but found the cache in good order. I'll probably take the easier route back to the car... TFTC!
Awesome find! Best cache loot yet! What out for spikey leaf thingies lol ouch haha! Thanks for a great cache!
I was staying with my brother and his family in Kallangur visiting my new niece (I live in Perth now) and took my two nephews (and mum and 5 week old niece) for a 'treasure hunt' the boys were beside themselves with excitement from the night before, working out what they were going to take to swap out if they found treasure. I wished I had of brought some pathtags over with me to leave, I didn't know if I would get time to do any caching, I will remember next time. I spied where it was and called the boys over together to look and they discovered its hiding spot. They swapped something out (with the littlest one loving the red bow) LOL I got a great photo of them on the bridge - it certainly is a lovely place! TFTC!
Out and about today with IolantheK for a bit of caching on the north side.
Most of the caches I found today, IolantheK has already found, but she did come for the walk to this one.
Them spiky leaves are not nice.
Left a TB I picked up at the SA MEGA.
Thanks for the cache.

I Oc-cache onally go riding and Oc cache onally go caching as well. This morning was one of those Ocacach-onal times
Lovely walk with our geobaby and Aladdin Sane 56 to find this cache. A lovely well maintained cache. Lots of great swag. We dropped off KiwiTB and picked up Tubbeke to take back with us to Toowoomba.
Out on the other side of Pine River to grab as many of the local unfound caches as I can as I head towards a milestone. I dropped by this one and had it in hand pretty quickly. Good to see a big container in the city. I spotted a trackable but left it there for someone else.
Thanks for placing this cache, MagnetGirl_au. Found in good condition.

My son found his first cache and was really excited. We are fairly new to the area and Rastas000 took the time to introduce me to the sport today. We swapped a yellow polka dot marble for a silvery gold one. TFTC.
Took Geodog out for a walk and finally got to do this cache. Having spotted the likely spot, the real puzzle was how to get there amongst the pine trees protection (I had thongs on and Geodog was not interested in just walking across). Eventually carried her across and had the goods!
TNLNSL TFTC - cache is in good condition even if the recent storms have impacted the surrounds.

A quick detour for me to find one that IolantheK already had. A short walk to GZ. IolantheK much happier this visit in her hiking boots. A nice quick find at GZ and off we go again
What a beautiful little area. I was greeted with the sight of some gorgeous water birds perching on some branches and another soaring over the park. Thanks for bringing me here MagnetGirl, another place I would never have known about! After waiting for some walkers to pass (collected some beautiful seed pods for my preschoolers to investigate)I quickly grabbed the cache and, what's this....yippee! MagnetGirl's 80th travel bug inside Will take it to somewhere fitting for such a historic achievement
ge-hubby and I will go check this out in the next couple of days, if it's gone I'll replace it. Should be back up and running in a day or so. Sorry for inconvenience.
Searched and searched at GZ and came up empty handed. Not sure if this one is still there, recent logs show it hasn't been found in a while.
