We looked high, we looked low, we looked in, we looked out, but today there was no way we could work this one out! Searched for 10 minutes, but this DR1.5 didn't want to show itself today.

Thanks for the hunt anyway brad1987.

A favourite fishing spot to take my son, I'll be back.
 
18-Jan-23
While enjoying our wander through Coffs Creek Walk we were able to learn some interesting history with the Buluunggal interpretive boards through the Adventure Labcache as well as pick up this cache.
The logbook is damp as others have said, just managed to get our team name on the log.
Thanks brad1987 for the placement.
 
15-Jan-23
Found this one neatly tucked away as we began the Adventure Lab. It’s seems secure but as others have mentioned the log is very wet. Sadly we had no cleaning equipment with us nor a dry log to leave which we normally would have tried to do. The rubber seal probably needs a good clean. We didn’t read the logs before coming so didn’t see it needed attention.
Thanks for placing the cache here that brought us down to see the water.
 
08-Jan-23
Log is very wet

Thank you for hiding
 
28-Dec-22
Log tooooop wet to sign. Phot attached
 
We think we know where it was but was very muddy Sad
 
14-Jul-22
Found with Ms BillHill, We came up to Coffs Harbourfor a bit of a get away. We went on the lovely creek walk right around the point, started with this one A bit sloshy around here, but fast fine any way, thanks for the clue.
f,
Signed log and Cache replaced as found.
**Thanks For The Cache** brad1987.

This makes the 2nd cache of 7 for today making a grand total of 3587 at 10:47AM on this Thursday the 14th of July in the Year 2022
 
02-Jun-22
Found it and as I suspected by the hint, the cache is saturated. The logbook is soaked and black. This needs to be up higher.

Found with geomum a couple of years ago
 
01-Mar-22
Finally, a break in the atrocious weather and I made a mad dash out to try to keep my streak alive. Family business must go on despite the weather. I found the cache easily enough but was unable to sign the saturated log, even more so than stated by the previous finder. Apologies for not replacing, in my haste I forgot my kit. Photo attached. Nice walk through here, be lovely on a better day. TFTC
 
23-Jan-22
Start of our longest walk of the day, a lot of going around in circles and going further into the bush than necessary. Cache soon located but in poor condition, log saturated and needs replacing.
Thanks for the cache
 
04-Oct-21
Nowhere the phone was telling me to go had anything resembling the hint. Found by MrG at something that did resemble the hint and who hadn't made any effort at all. We can't remember why we didn't find this last time we were on the Creek Walk... maybe muggles. Anyway, got it now. TFTC brad1987.

#7922 (8 of 11 today - including 5 Adventure Labs)

First full day in Coffs Harbour and we decided to have a nature day - first the Botanical Gardens and then a walk. And no harm in picking a walk with some caches - so did part of a walk nearby.

Found a few that had lain undisturbed for some months. Glad to see they were still in play.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Started our walk and soon found ourselves at this cache.

The iPhone wanted me further into the scrub than necessary, as I realised once I’d checked the hint and spotted a likely hideyhole. And that looks like camo!
But when I removed that camo I saw nothing... hold on, is that a hint of a familiar container? Yes it is, gotcha. It had been all but buried by the decomposition of the hint object.

And the log isn’t too damp.

Completed signing duties and replaced. Hopefully easier to find by the next cacher, but not the next muggle.

Was so surprised it was still there after the recent flooding and even more surprised by the giant huntsman spider that was underneath the container and climbed onto my son’s hand!!!
Thanks!!

Today was a day of doing some caching around the Coffs Harbour accompanied by ilook4geo. It was a successful day with no DNFs to mar the chosen list. Each cache had its log signed with both lots of initials, then each container was replaced where it had been found. Thanks go to brad1987 and gummybear7 for this cache placement.

Doing some caching this morning around Coffs with goingplaces2. It was a fun day and we were happy to add some more smileys to the map. This was another one we were able to tick off our list. TFTC.

Found it at the end of our hike around Coffs Creek Walk. The coordinates were bouncing but my geocaching sense helped me locate the cache.
 
13-Nov-19
Went kayaking past here last night. Great spot! Thanks
 
03-Sep-19
This cache was on yesterday's list but a puncture put paid to that.
Incorporated it in to todays ride though.
Don't remember this track at all but we must have been up here before as we already had smiley faces along it. There were 4 to get today though which made the ride worthwhile.
This was the first attempted and after the older muggle on the jetty left Mr Beetle waited with the bikes while I bushbashed my way to this one. All totally unnecessarily as it turned out!!!
I swear if there's an easy way and a hard way to get to a cache I'll take the hard way.
Got tangled in vines and the buggers had sharp spikes on them and eventually the GPS took me out to the river where I had to walk along the mud to get to GZ which was in a nice clear spot only metres from where we first pulled up. Why did we head back up the track and take what looked like a geotrail in to the scrub!!!!!!
Thanks.

With relatives dropping over after lunch we got out in the morning with a dozen caches in mind, grabbing 11 of those and an extra one, adding a few GCA finds as we went. With everyone at work and school, muggles were on the low side, thankfully....
Found after a quick search, no probs. The logbook is a bit damp, but the insides of the cache clean and dry. Left a TB. TFTC

Wife found this one TFTC

Off on a short geo-tour to Coffs Harbour for a couple of days. Out on Evie rounding up as many smiles as I can.

The track was quite busy late this afternoon. Walkers, joggers and bikes. With GZ a little of the main path it was not a problem.

A short hunt to find this one.
 
06-Feb-19
So scenic, nice one, tftc.
 
20-Jan-19
My closest cache - only 100m from my front door. 7th find tho as muggles fish here all holidays! Also, Malaysian money?!
 
18-Jan-19
Grrr... You'd have to come in the middle of the night to avoid the muggles!
 
19-Dec-18
A nice hidden spot

Nice easy find TFTC
 
18-Oct-18
I've been visiting my elderly parents at Woolgoolga this week to get some things organised, so unfortunately it hasn't really been a caching holiday. But I got the chance to grab a few this afternoon before an early flight back to Sydney tomorrow. Had one muggle on the jetty but he left fairly quickly and after expanding the search area a little made a fairly quick find. Thanks brad1987 and gummybear7.

Co-ordinates were at least 5 m off today but the hint helped.

Just returned from my holiday and catching up on the logs from my fantastic trip. Taking a stroll down the path and scooping up some caches. All is well. Signed log. Thanks

Jogging around the Coffs ck circuit this morning, I stopped by here to find this cache. Trying not to sweat everywhere, signed the log and continued on my merry way.
Thanks brad1987
 
26-Nov-16
Found it, no pen though so be sure to have your own
 
14-Nov-16
TFTC, I found the cache lid first just in the grass, searched around and found container chucked about 10 metres away, then found log book and a toy further away, put it all back together, not exactly sure where it was hidden but I placed it in a broken log and covered it with sticks approx 6 metres from my GZ.
 
05-Nov-16
Took kids for a cool down at park beach decided on a last min adventure to find a geo cache so no pen but have photo for proof of find
 
29-Oct-16
Good one
 
07-Oct-16
Number six of ten caches found with the geo-son during a Friday afternoon bike tour of the Coffs Creek trails. A king tide could potentially present a challenge in getting to GZ but the way was dry for us today. We may need to have a fish off the nearby wharf on a future trip. Many thanks brad1987 and gummybear7
