No longer Here.

Thanks to the generosity of the last finder for replacing this one but someone knows it is here. Four times replaced now.

Retrieved and time to say good bye.

Thanks to all those who have found this one.

Found it lying in the gutter smashed to pieces with contents all around. Replaced it with a Sistema and dried out the log. Will contact owner about changes. TFTC

Wriggled underneath torch in hand. No luck for me today. Thanks anyway

A torch comes in handy.

Cheers

And then, about 30 metres away, out in the open, we find the cache, (the one with the last finders signature in it) Yep, two containers at this location. Now both sitting together. Best I have ever found is 3 containers at one location, out at Alice Springs.

Cheers

Bundy

Lol, going back through the logs, container replaced in 2015, and no one has for the smaller camp one since. That's ridiculous.

Cheers

Bundy

On seeing the log and note from Bundyrumandcoke went out to check. 30 meters no wonder I did not see it. The original container and log aback in place. I have removed one very sodden log and removed the green camo container. First page from my recent replacement log in the back of the original log. Could not save any of the names on the other log book. Please replace where found. It lives under the building in the SOUTH WEST corner. You do have to get down to ground level to reach in and up. Enjoy.

On a weekend in Nanango for the races. Came day before the races to pick up this cache. Would not have been able to get it on race day. Had to stretch to get this one. Thank you for placing this cache here for us to enjoy

Weekend away with Benny boppers, Lisylou and Mnance101. Lovely day for a drive. Tftc

Out caching for the weekend with the Tough Mother’s (Jemillalucy, Bennyboppers, and Lisylou). TFTC!

Found with bennyboppers mnance01 and jemillalucy today. Tftc

Out for the weekend with lisylou and jemilucy and mnance101 tftc

Could not spot it from the side the cache was situated but upon looking from the opposite side it was easily spied and I could stick my hand in and retrieve.

Log has been replaced and double bagged. Please replace where it should be found. Please do not place on the ground under the building.

Cute pay shelter my favourite colour

This was our second weekend out in Nanango travelling the highways and byways searching for Hidden Creatures, finding caches and logging smileys . We dodged truckies and trailers , mud puddles and muggles and clambered over all manner of obstacles in search of the final prizes, all the while trying to keep dry in the drizzle. Thanks to all the CO’s for their efforts in making this a most enjoyable trip. TNLN TFTC .

Crew 153 and I had big plans to try and get 100 caches in a day today.

However, Crew 153's Ford Falcon had other ideas and brought us to a screeching halt at cache number 50 by blowing its fuel pump.

We were both calm and collected about it. We still got 50 caches. Car got safely towed to Kilcoy. Mr Slow Puncture came and rescued us.. and there are still more than enough caches out there for us to try again. There ends my "cut and paste" part of the log

Crew 153 - just because your car GPSr says there is a road - does not give you permission to gallop across a paddock in your car toward GZ Well we got there in the end!

I was a little perturbed trying to find the cache as it was quite wet around the area. Crew 153 thankfully spotted this one. From memory the log inside the cache was wet - but we still signed it. A nice little area to visit. TFTC youngoldfella

Fangsoki and I had picked this area for a day of caching to find caches for the Hidden Creatures Souvenirs and after an early start I finally finished the day with a total of 53 finds when we struck engine trouble and had to abort the mission.

This cache was find number 17 for the day.

I drove in the main entrance and the GPS told me to take a track to the left and I ended up going straight across the field and coming across the road again at the other side.

It took some gymnastics for us to locate the cache. I'm not sure that it is in the intended spot as it can get rather wet in the spot where we located it.

TFTC youngoldfella

Found under, but not up. Returned as per hint. Log is very wet. Looks like this may have already been already found today but unsure as wet log made it difficult to distinguish. Tnsl tftc youngoldfella xo

Arriving in Nanango after our scenic drive through the countryside from home at Eudlo, Sunshine Coast. We decided to visit this equestrian area first up and soon found the cute little purple and white striped hut.
No-one about but some nearby horses were acting a bit spooked - they didn't seem to like us being there.
I looked under before I blindly reached in to see what I might find first. Some rubbish under there but soon got my hands on the cache.
Took army soldier, left bracelet.

On my knees praying to the great geo god to dig it out. Haha. Tftc

A planned Easter Trip to this area we set off this morning to look for this one having been at the racers yesterday great day TNLN SL TFTC

No races. Behind cement peices.

I can highly recommend coming to Nanango for a caching holiday. The hides have been good & take you to places of interest in the area. This cache was in good condition & a quick park & grab. Kutgw

When we arrived at GZ, both of us are saying ‘I’ve got the phlog (photo log) for this one!’ We both have different ideas! So before we even begin the search the discussion is on of which one to use, since Mr 4ando had actually read the description we were going with his idea as Mrs 4ando had herself on a Victorian beach and clearly this is not a beach area. Now we better find the cache after all that phlog discussion.

There was a lot of water around here, but that wasn’t stopping us and we soon had what we were after. Now before heading in there, it was time to just double check that there weren’t any drop snakes in there, coast is clear, you can tell we are city slickers…

TFTC youngoldfella

Decided to spend a few days camping in Nanango with my geodog Scruffy, so we just had to go out and find some of the caches hidden in this beautiful part of QLD.

All Good .. TFTC ..

Well that is a cute paint job on the structure here. Two plover birds kept a watchful eye from across the road... So I didn't muck around with my search here, I don't like those birds! Found, signed and tucked back in where it was. Thanks for the cache, youngoldfella!

How to freak yourself out. Get spooked about the possibility of spiders hiding everywhere, gingerly bend down to look under stuff, have your hair slide down your shoulders and run over your bare arm!!!!! Arrrkk! Luckily no one was around today to hear my pathetic girly squeal.

Nice hide.

TFTC

Found it with bikesu.Tftc

On another caravanning trip with Uwe001. Beautiful country. Tftc

Looked around and daughter produced the cache.

Last for the day leaving Nanango tomorrow. Will be back.

Made hubby get dirty

We followed the car GPSr until we realised that it was taking us onto the airfield. [:o] I quickly backtracked until we were back on the road We followed the road to GZ. Once there, we parked the car and jumped out hoping to make a quick find. I went one side and Mrs RoddyC the other. My caching buddy made the find. Our names were added to the log, the cache rehidden and we were on our way again. TFTC

In Nanango for a day or so geocaching with Selva Girls. There were quite a few green dots [^] we wanted to turn into yellow smileys.

Out to find 50 in a day today. Getting close to the end of the day. Wonder if this is used any more?

Log signed & replaced again. Found at 5.23m on 26th March 2017. TFTC, youngoldfella

We will be leaving very soon to attend the Red Centre Experience Event being held in Alice Springs and have decided we would try to make that event a milestone ... the only problem is we are a few hundred caches short This was the perfect excuse for a quick road trip through Nanango/Murgon/Kingaroy The weather was a little rainy, but surprisingly we remained relatively dry during the day with the worst of the rain occurring while we camped overnight [^]

We managed to locate this cache easily and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our journey.

Thank you youngoldfella for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

Nice quick find TFTC Young Old Fella

Tftc.

Raim had washed it from where it should have been. Was about 3.5mtrs down the little gully/run bit but placed back where we hope it should have been

No racing today, so no muggles about and a quick easy find. TFTC youngoldfella

Nice easy friends while camping with the family for the weekend. Tftc.

Found by The Noodler. Yesterday was races so no go. Likewise this morning, horses and riders. However late this afternoon success.

#7770 Cache Found

After being idle and tied up with household chores over the last few weeks, It didn't take to much prodding to decide a mini road trip was in order.
After consulting the trusty map decided that a little adventure North through Yarraman, Narango and Kingaroy. And because youngoldfella places his caches along some great country roads the marjority of attempts would be on his caches, With a few others thrown in for good measure Nice cache thanks for bringing me here and for the adventure.

Thanks for the great cache and adventure youngoldfella

Garcia co-founded the New Riders of the Purple Sage and also released several solo albums. He was well known for his distinctive guitar playing and was ranked 13th in Rolling Stone's "100 Greatest Guitarist's of All Time"

Unfortunately it's time to leave Nanango and all its wonderful caches. We stopped on the way to this one to grab a photo of the motorhome in Hannibal.
This one was quickly found by feeling around. Thanks.

TFTC, lovely little hut

Lovely spot. TFTC

Out for a days caching with diamonjs. Beautiful day. TFTC

Sneaky

Found it! TFTC

TFTC. Found after a short search and a peek at the hint.

We arrived at Nanango in sufficient time to set up the caravan before attending the CITO.
Afterwards we wandered around town finding a few that are new or not found previously.
This is one we had hada DNF on, today I got down nice & low & spotted it on the other side from where I was.
Good to be able to cross it off our list.
Thanks for placing this cache youngoldfella

Decided to go for a drive today with the GeoWife and clean up a few green icons along the way. Plenty of fun finds and great caches. Thank you for placing the caches to be found. Tftc

With the day off work, we decided a road trip was in order and Nanango was to be our destination.

We had the place to ourselves, so after getting down and having a good look, the cache was revealed

Thanks youngoldfella

Thoght we would do this while no one around TFTC

Today was my first ever visit to the historic Burnett region, heading to lovely Nanango for the first event held there. Of course, there were plenty of caches to be found along the way .

Found this one just as some cars were starting to arrive loaded with raceways on trailers for some sort of race. Luckily I was able to employ some stealth. This cache adds to our total of 1963 smilies. Thanks youngoldfella for showing us this spot.
Feel free to discover our trackable code TGQNRV

Looking for the cache here I had to take a few photos of the pay structure as there was a few workers in the distance. .
Signed logbook 4/12/2015 8:45 am and replaced all as found.
1 x TB Visit.

What a lovely town Nanango is and it did not take long for us to head out and get some of the many caches around the area done. Great to catch up with a few familiar faces as well. Nice hide. Thanks to youngoldfella for its placement and adding to our enjoyment of this location.

Another interesting little spot that we didn't know existed until being brought here for a cache. You sure wouldn't want to come to find this one on race day, lol. Found the cache safe and sound though I checked a different spot first and was very worried about spiders. None troubled us though and the log was gratefully signed. Cheers! [^][^]

Out and about with one half of The Drovers from the South Burnett to Gympie areas for a couple of days caching. We found a variety of caches and containers along the way and plenty of different hides to keep us on our toes along the way and this was one of them.

Thanks to all the CO's for placing and maintaining the caches along the way.

TFTC youngoldfella

Mr Drover joined up with Konie and headed off, for a 2 day caching & camping trip.
Drove from Caboolture to cache the hills, travelling 600 kms in a loop & back to Caboolture.
We found a variety of cache hides and containers, some a little tricky to find.
Thanks to the CO's for all the effort of placing and maintaining these caches, we had an awesome 2 days.

Many thanks for placing this cache, youngoldfella, for us and others to find.

Checked and it is gone and have replaced it. Look in the corner away from the road and closest to the gate going into the rodeo ground. It is down very low and tucked away.

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there youngoldfella. We found your cache "Pay Here" at 1:44:00 PM today. This cache makes our find count 11404.
[Blue]
Today was just the sort of day for another sight seeing tour around some of the roads in the area. In our travels we found 2 many and varied caches ranging in size from micro to large. A big thank you to all the CO's for placing the caches we found.
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: The container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.[font=Verdana]

We DNF'd 1 caches today. [:(!]
[red]A disappointing start to the day. We spent quite some time here at around 10:35:00 AM, but we couldn't locate your cache, so a DNF from us - - - not stating it's not there... just that we couldn't spot it.
[/red]Ian and Penny

The location isn't hard to find and with the hint neither is the cache. Thanks youngoldfella.

#4 on our cache run today. TFTC

Hooray! Tftc

Went for a drive and guess what? It is still there.

Not having much luck today

Late afternoon caching after moving the van into the showground. Finally found the little rascal, let hubby get this one The weather has been idyllic and added to the enjoyment. And the caches have been excellent! Thanks for all the fun and the caches

[Blue]# 12019[/Blue] Found on our 2015 Winter escape trip to Qld.
Another perfect day for caching around the Nanango area.
I agree, this sneaky hide is well done and a D2 or more actually.
Cheers from Wagga Wagga in the Riverina, NSW.

Me bike ride continued around towne and took me out to the aerodrome
First time I have seen the runway from the ground.
I have seen it from above many times while gliding around the area.
Always handy to know it was there !!

There is or used to be a model aircraft club hereabouts too !!

Today there was nobody around, and I spent quite a few minutes trying to find this well hidden cache
I couldn't see it, but eventually a lucky paw struck paydirt

Took us a long time to get this one - missed it on first look but finally got it. SL TFTC

Found Ok

Find #1592

We decided it was time to visit our 'Country Cousins' to see what was on offer away from the burbs!
Our main target area was Nanango but a few stray caches here & there all add to the growing smilie map.

Thankfully, this was a fast find. Geo-mamma had started to search & I decided to give her a hand.
Just as the cache revealed itself, down came the rain! Not for long though & not that heavy so it was actually quite refreshing.
No muggles around today.

Nice and quiet out here today. I expect this would be difficult on race days.

We had a big hunt for this one. We both missed it on the first look and started looking in some alternate spots before having a better look in the first place.

IolantheK spied the beast and I went in for the capture.

Road tripping with teamdfl again It's Brisbane to Nanango or bust today! (With a little side jaunt to Kingaroy as well ) 2.5 hours driving each way, with 48 finds for me, including 2 Letterboxes, 2 multis and 2 puzzles. A grand day out indeed [^]

Mmm, lots of searching here, and it was not an easy thing! I'm sure we both looked at the cache and missed it at least once! TFTC, youngoldfella.

After scrabbling around on my hands and knees for ages, misschief18 suggested that I try somewhere else and guess what? There was the cache. Another great hide from the CO

Found with taurus1955 and BentleyTB. Quite a nice hide. I imagine it would be very busy here on special days. TFTC

This was next and soon we were near GZ.
No races or anything horse related today.
In fact it seemed very deserted today.
I went to search and geopartner took pictures.
Spotted fairly quickly and signed the log and returned.

With our youngest Esky keen to find another cache, we stopped and explored this likely spot. I was volunteered (by Mrs Esky) to undertake the hunt for this one, and after a few tentative stretches, soon had it in hand.

TFTC.

Gotcha !!! TFTC

Mr Esky and the smallest boy went for this one. After initial hesitation about putting hands in unknown places Mr E finally made the find.

I knew where to look but was concerned if there were any creepy crawlies finally had the gumption and soon had the cache in hand TFTC
