DFN

Unfortunately couldnt find this one, I am only new to geocaching + was quite rainy weather. Will try again another day!

Couldnt find it. Just might not be our day as we couldnt find the others

I had previously visited this geocache on 1/04/2022 when I spent a good portion of time searching around, and then had to depart with a DNF. With subsequent finds and a clue to its location noted, I was back again today hoping for a change of luck. It still took 5-10 minutes of searching around until eventually finding the cache well-hidden, with its length of time since the last find evident. The cache container and logbook were in good shape, and I did note that the last two finders weren't in the logbook, which appeared to correspond with its hidden state. Thanks Beckster22 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance. It was also nice to have found this cache with 486 days [16.0 months / 1.33 years] of unfound love since its last find on 28/12/2022.---------- After following the usual Saturday morning routine consisting of parkrun, Cottontail's gymnastics and library/playground visit with coffee, I was allowed to escape north to attend the [CITO in the Mangroves](https://coord.info/GCAJZV9) event scheduled for early afternoon at low tide. Having visited the area six months ago and getting stuck in the soft mud myself, I knew it would be another tough outing, but a chance to remove stubborn litter. I had a final walk around the Ningi's lake area before returning home in the late afternoon.

Found 6/5/24 thank you

Very fun

After searching for a while we got help from a PAF but had no joy where they said to look. Thanks Beckster22

Not in plain sight enough for me Im afraid. Hopefully it wont be long before Im back in the area.

Could not find this one, maybe another time.

Last time we came to find this cache we were in a low car, and turned down and missed the first turn, two deepish puddles in and we decided to turn around and come back with a larger vehicle. Today we took the blue beast out and he made short work of the puddles and we were at GZ quickly and the cache was quickly in hand TFTC

Beckster22 I found your cache Between the Berries on 3/12/2022, 8:58 am. This is my find 4499 and find # 4 today. After my DNF decided to give it another go. Especially as it is confirmed it’s there. Searched again for about half an hour was about to give up and PAF when I decided to check another spot. Found it. Glad to get the smiley on this one because I saw a snake skin nearby. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN

Looked around GZ then looked further using our caching senses rather than any pre-conceived ideas. Familiar container. TFTC

#5 for the day. Headed this way a week or so ago but decided the track was too rough in my 2 wheel drive. Back again today in the jeep. We decided to do these few before hitting the water.

Relatively quick find by Duppers. Cache was about 7mts out from GZ. Familiar container though. TFTC, TFTH & TFTSF

Beckster22 I didn’t find your cache Between the Berries on 3/10/2022, 10:17 am. Searched around but nothing found.

I have checked on this cache recently and it was still in place.

Today, I started out the day with a visit to Caboolture finding a cluster of geocaches around Central Lakes Park. Subsequently, the plan was a kayak paddle in Pumicestone Channel as per the organised event by Peppa and patrol14. We then used the occasion to find a few geocaches in the *Little Bird* series by kayak. After lunch, we then formed a small group to continue to find a few more *Little Bird* series geocaches by vehicle and walking, before we all had to rush home from taking a long day out.

With my remaining time available and left in this area, I decided to detour past a small cluster of geocaches in the middle of the peninsula. Unfortunately as my last cache find for the day, it was not meant to be, and I spent 20 minutes searching around. I tried all sorts of techniques, angles and perspectives, hoping to catch sight of the container, but alas, I overstayed my time at this spot, and ended up leaving with a frown. At least I was treated to some good views of the berries farm and sunset in the background. Thanks anyway Beckster22 for the cache placement.

Giraffe18 and I are here for RoddyC’s event at Beachmere…. With a little time to kill we’ve found a cache or three… we’re not really in the best car for this road, but luckily it’s got a button to raise it… phew…

Didn’t take long to find this familiar container… tftc…

Quick find by Peppa. Long grass is still in abundance. I thought I had spotted cache from the car but was wrong.

TFTC. About to give up when my eye spotted something I have seen before elsewhere. Very quiet spot on a Sunday but I would hate to be looking on a berry picking or planting day.

Today I had the pleasure to join Chamad, TripleTurmoil and later on Willis007 for a day of caching. Our initial target for the day was the land based Bird caches while also grabbing several other caches on our travels. We then moved on to Bribie Island to attend an event to have a brief break from caching duties and mingle amongst fellow cachers, luckily we dressed for the weather because that bitterly cold wind would rip straight through you, brrr!

After the event we decided to stay put on Bribie Island to grab the remaining caches that we missed on our last visit, I think we’ll need a 4x4 for the remaining ones however.

Thank you for showing us around these wonderful locations, we had an absolute blast.

Apologies for the generic log.

#2280 - TFTC

This morning it was triple turmoil, Nayfee and myself on a clean-up mission of the area. We were working our way to a lunchtime event on Bribie Island. With a few birds to collect and a few others as we passed by, we had plenty to get before the event. It was a fun morning and a successful round up of new and old active caches.

This was the fourth cache of the day for me. It was a short drive down the dirt road and upon reaching GZ the cache name made sense. Looking around, we had to think as to where the hide might be and after a methodical search, we found it. A nice hide and a sneaky one as well. With our names in the log we were onto the next on the list. Thank you for the cache and keeping this one going.

With an event in the area, Chamad, Nayfee and I decided to make a day of it, finding what we could before and after the event. Long grass meant it wasn't in plain sight. But found within a couple of minutes it was found.

Out for a nice little MTB ride which involved looping past this spot. I had allowed fro a quick stop to seek out this cache which was not to be.

Oh dear I'm going to have to ride fast to catch up with the mob.

Took us a while but partner ended up finding it

Well camouflaged - look low and underbrush workers

Great spot !

Finally found it the forrest looks so different than when I saw it 2 years ago.

Found quite easy

Lovely foggy spot to grab a cache and maybe a berry or two!

Who doesn't like a handful of berries when they're plucked properly (try saying that quickly five times)! Again picking up a buzzy around the corner, arrived to find this spot similarly shrouded in fog and those tantalizing red berries just over the fence ready to be plucked.

With no workers yet in the fields, the urge was strong to go pluck yourself a mouthful of berries. The only issue may have been k9s on guard patrol and me with a bung set of ribs, I would have been quickly picked off by a dog. Discretion proved the right approach over valour or a sweet berry fixation so collected the cache again. Thanks Beckster22 for a hide in an interesting and tasty place.

We pulled up close to GZ and spotted the nicely hidden cache. Lots of berry pickers in the field nearby who were not interested in what we were doing on the other side of the fence! Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC

Such a beautiful view, quick find

Out with the Geokids or sometimes I can call muggle. We nice drive up to the Sunshine Coast. Then will were hit by rain. So return Beachmere area to do some caching there.

Cache a day to keep the doctor away, or is it to keep me sane. No it’s to keep my streak alive. Beckster22 TFTC *458* streak. *2773* Finds

Had us stumped at first but beautiful Geowife soon found it. TFTC

Glad we found that quickly and it wasn’t what I was thinking it might be after reading a previous log! Signed and returned. Thanks for showing us this back road.

Nice hide! Can see why the previous hunters were reluctant to touch it.

Easy find

Nice

Good find Easy

Next find on the list for angloj and I. I somehow managed to walk straight passed it with angloj questioning my vision. TFTC Beckster22

A quick park and grab! Tftc

S&S

Quick find for my keen eyed daughter.

Quick easy find

Found it. Thanks. Lots of workers today.

The road was quite busy just before first light. heaps of workers arriving to pick berries just up the road. They all turned off just before this one.

A short hunt here too.

Day 43 Mainland trip
Out and about with Tassie Trekkers and Roostaman finding caches around Ningi, Donnybrook, Toorbul and surrounds. We enjoyed our drive around. Everything is so green. TFTC

Caching in and around Tookbul and surrounds, we picked up a few caches with Whitewebbs and Roostaman and this was one of them.

Thanks for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

**# 24572** Found on our 2019 trip to Qld for winter.
A fine Autumn day for a drive around with Tassie Trekkers and whitewebs.
Not that many muggles around here today and many good safe hides.
Thanks for the cache Beckster22,
***Roostaman***

I located the cache hide fairly quickly but was reluctant to even poke with a stick as I had just skirted a 1 metre long red belly black snake 10m away. I finally did use the tott to get at the cache. Thanks. I enjoyed driving on the track bordering the pine forest getting back to the main road.

A nice quick find here. TFTC

Nice easy one.

Cheers

Bundy

The boys found this one good place

While staying at Elimbah we ventured out and found this cache. Exploring these areas is fun and generally very scenic. Thankyou Beckster22 for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area

Spotted the container from the car.

Thanks!!

Surprisingly found quickly. Tftc

Last cache for the day. Getting super hot.
TFTC

Great find, very clever and lots of fun.

So clever!

Berries look like the're ready for the picking

New container and ready to be found.

Geo kid was happy for this find. Thank you

I checked on this one today and it seems to have gone awol. Should have a replacement in the next couple of days..

6 geocachers searched and searched over half hr grrr

Suppoused DNF not found

No berries

Wowowow! Now I don’t give up easily, but I was going to, with this one.
Hint: think!

2nd attempt to get to gz, aborted the mission earlier in the week as we had the wrong car for the terrain. Back today with Bump who doesn't mind a bumpy road, we found our way to the edge of the strawberry farm.
The grass was long and itchy, the sun was hot and glaring, and we could only guess at what we were looking for. We searched and searched, high and low, but mostly low and picked up lots of things except the purple rubber gloves which we just poked...
We were just about to give up after just over half an hour when J called out those sweet words "found it" right where I'd just supposedly searched intently. It was covered by fallen bark so not really in plain sight but certainly a well crafted container. Our guess had been correct but it was not with the others of its kind.
So glad to achieve success and add some well needed points to our planetary challenge on this last ditch effort to make it to the edge of the solar system.

Couldn’t find this one today, dodging wet weather didn’t help, had to give up.

We were pretty sure we knew what container we were looking for heading out to GZ but so many options when we got there eventually we stumbled across the right one, lots of fun with this one TFTC

So friggin cool and unique kids loved this find

Today, we wanted to head over to Bribie to visit friends, and change some books at the Bribie Book Exchange. Planned to pick up some caches around Beachmere that I don't think were in the area last time we were through. Having read the description, and knowing the area, I knew what i was looking for. But I kept picking up wrong ones, meanwhile Mr D found the right one. Thanks Beckster22

Came out for a drive to gather some numbers before a major event next week. It was a beautiful day for caching with the shining sun. Stopped for a fish and chip lunch along beach.

Thank goodness for past logs which gave us a bit of a hint worth the 2 d tftc fav pt

Unable to locate

Thanks Beckster22 for this cache.
Great camouflage.

Day trip to Bribie Island.
We planned out tour today following the geocaching trail
This took us to various locations & a good selection of caches found.
Missed the turn off after a U turn we drove down the dirt road watching all the strawberry pickers. This took us a few minutes before enentually spotting this well cammo'd hide.
Thanks for placing this cache Beckster22

11:38:00 AM. The grandkids and I were searching for this when the owner pulled up to check on it. He pointed us in the right direction. Log signed. The kids loved the hide. Thanks Beckster22 for the cache.

Was a sneaky hiding spot, had the owner come looking for it after a few people couldn't find it, but is still there

Checked on this one today after a couple of DNFs, its still there

Bugger think it might be gone

Camo 1, ynoth 0. Next trip.

No luck for goldielover and I and after quite a search we gave up. Off to track down another.

**Smilie #4840**

An afternoon free meant heading north to convert a few icons into smilies.

A nice quick find here for us.
This does not detract from the fact that this is a well constructed & well placed hide.
A touch of sneaky too!
Made our mark & replaced as found.

**TFTC Beckster22 **

Out with Nurseyjulie, finding a few caches in the area. Upon arrival at GZ, I thought I knew what we might be looking for. I was right, but it took quite some time before the right one was found. Log signed, cache rehidden and we were on our way again. TFTC

A day out with Selvagirls picking up caches in the Beachmere locale. This was a tricky find today. In fact I looked at this container a couple of times and then SG said did I look at it and said yes, only this time I picked it up and discovered it! TFTC Beckster22

7-1-17

Mercifully geowife picked the container straight away. Great little hide, had to use thd tweezers to undo the lid, thanks for another well constructed cache Beckstar22.

Had a few hours up or sleeves today so hubby and i decided to make the most of it. Had no clear direction in mind just thought we would go wherever the road leads us!
This was the 2nd of our stops. Well what a cache! I think I made it harder than it should. Searched and searched. Sat and stared and scratched my head in confusion. It's got to be here somewhere I said. Then hubby pipes up. Um i found it. You're kidding me! I have seen one of these before but the placement here was perfect! Took my usually not so good at spotting things hubby to spot it. Awesome cache. TFTF

I've seen one or two like this before but it was actually rhobocacher who spotted it!
Joined rhobocacher for her daily cache again!

Another quick daily cache and with this heat around its easier to get it done early, Mrs wombles decided to join for quick one. I was in charge of driving while Mrs wombles was in charge of cache details. We were discussing previous logs on the way there and within a few mins of being there I found it nice and safe and secure what a great unusual hide TFTC

We were lucky to find this cache so quickly. I won't say "quick find", I will say "lucky find". There was something slightly different about an object in plain view and I picked it up to throw it and noticed an oddity.

We were having a skinful of strawberries at the time and when we noticed that we were next to a raspberry farm our minds started to wander. What if the strawberry farmer and the raspberry farmer had a fight. Throwing fruit at each other. Who would win that juicy encounter? Anyway, tftc

The 12th and final cache of the day on our way back from Brisbane. Whilst geohubby was stumbling around with this one, I decided to get out of the car and give him a hand - and oh boy was he cross when I shouted out " I've found it". Great container, deserves a favourite point from us. We have thoroughly enjoyed finding these 12 caches today. TFTC Beckster22

great hide

Took me ages to find it but I persevered

30/6/16 Today we visited the Medieval day nearby and decided to grab a few local caches on the way home. I arrived at GZ and began the hunt. Hmmmm.....this could be a little tricky. I had a feeling I knew what to look for, but then my phone rang. It was the people we were with today and they had left a jumper in my car. So, I needed to find this cache quick so we could meet up and hand back their belongings. I decided to go with the logical location and soon spotted something that didn't seem right. Bingo. I do love a cache like this and it is well deserving of a favourite point from me. I signed the log and headed off to meet the others. TFTC Beckster22

Very good hide you need a keen eye to see this one Tftc

Nice quiet spot to stop at. Looked around then found something a little out of place

We were out for the day not too far away and decided to make sure we picked up a cache for the day We located the cache easily and with our name in the log book, we continued on our way.

Thank you Beckster22 for having placed the cache and maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

This one was really hard for us..very clever tftc!
