Quick little find with HollyHORROR. Out with no kids today. Greatvday to be caching TFTC
Visiting from NZ and using the opportunity to find enough caches to earn the Cosmic souvenir.Decided to attempt the Glider Forest Trails today and maybe a few extras as well. Ended up doing a 16.5 km walk over five and a half hours and finding 41 out of 41. Very pleased that all the caches were in place and able to be found. This one took a minute before being spotted a little higher than the first three. Thx to the COs for placing and maintaining all these caches.
Finished work after an all nighter and needed a find for my 366 Calendar Challenge. Decided to knock over the Glider Forest Power Trail as its located a short distance from my work.TFTC. TNLN. SL. TBs Prado Owl ; The Great Leap Forward Geocoin ; Bee Croc ; Der Kleine Bub ; Rawhide ; Scarb, Sheeps on the Journey (Orange) ; RobS72k 2000 Finds GC ; Forest Hill Ear Tag ; and Kiwi Bird visited.Find # 2079.
Today I was looking for a cache with a medium hike attribute so I decided to return to this DNF and have another look. From the yellow gate to the cache and back again was 1.2km so it only just qualified as a medium hike and the walk felt quite short when I was only going after the one cache. When I arrived I saw the cache straight away. I don't think I would have missed it last time if it had been that easy. Maybe it was more covered up last time I was here. Anyway, nice to have it ticked off now and the series finally completed. Thanks for the cache Cantcacheus2014!
This is the only cache I couldnt find today.There was really only one place that fit the hint and it wasnt anywhere to be seen.Today I completed the Glider Forest Power Trail. I walked 6.5km in just over 2hrs and found 22/23 caches. This is a new daily record for me (my previous record was 21 caches). Apart from 1 that seemed to be missing and a couple which were damaged, the caches were all in good condition and fairy easy to find. The council is doing some major track works at the moment so I was off-track for the entire second half of the series, which just added to the fun!
Family geo day out with Goteammullan, drossiter, tlm83. Trying to gain some more smilies. TFTC.
My second foray into Glider Forest to complete the power trail. Collected 13 caches including the letterbox. TFTC
A small cache brimful of a little trinkets for the little ones. all good with the cache . TFTC
We had a lovely walk through the bushlands collecting all the caches this morning. Thanks Cantcacheus2014
Over on the Southside for some more caching therapy today. Seems I have been over this way a lot lately. Only have time for a few so I needed a nice walk to clear my head and a walk seemed the answer.
I started at the first one and wondered off, there was no one around here today so it was very peaceful. I only had time to get to the letterbox before I had to return and continue on with my duties for the day.
Thank you for the outing, all caches were found in good order and all logs were signed with caches returned as found.

Working through this series with graceygirl1234. All nice and easy to find and most logs in very good condition! Hoping to find some numbers in this series so we can solve the letterbox padlocks! TFTC
GPS and cache locations lining up nicely today for another quick find. Thanks for placing these.
Picking up a few smiles in the extended local area for caches. Our aim today is the Glider trail. Out with RoddyC & GS1947 .
Lovely time to be out and about.
Disturbed a very large goanna on our way to this one. Hiss hiss....

From this area of the forest we could hear all these weird noises. We had watched Jumanji 1-3 and the noises reminded us all of the noises the kids heard before being sucked into the game. It was kind of weird walking around looking over our shoulders, waiting for someone to leap out and yell Jumanji. We never did work out what was making the rumbly, boomy sounds. Anyway, cache no. 4 nice and quick. TFTC.
Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I took our MTBs, and rode around Sergeant Dan Stiller Memorial Reserve / Warril Parkland and Glider Forest Conservation Area. It was fairly cruisey riding around with a few ups and downs, and a creek crossing that was deep enough to prevent riding through (although my shoes got wet with my attempt). Following our ride, we headed east to Browns Plains and visited Logan West Library, followed by a stop at IKEA.
During our ride in this area, we made a stop at this geocache, where we made a quick cache find. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Cantcacheus2014 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Clean and dry. Picked the wrong big trees until we saw a bigger one, then it all made sense.
Sorry for generic log. Out with DKDK to take on the power trail. A wonderful piece of Bush land and a nice series. TFTC
Another week of self isolation and my one big outing for the week. Such a wonderfully quiet spot there is very little chance of being accused of not social distancing out here.
Cache found safe and in good nick.

A bike ride in isolation in this piece of bushland.
Have been saving this cluster of caches for a day when I would need them, as I have now completed the goals I had set myself it was a good time to grab these.
The tracks were deserted.
Following the order up to here
Thank you for hiding this one

Quick find today whilst out with the geopup.
Disturbed a family of ants who were making themselves at home in the cache. I shook them all out, hopefully they will find another home.
Log signed and replaced as found.

Today i started with this powertrail. I found all boxes and say thanks for hiding and maintenance. TftC
Still powering along this trail we paused to find this cache.
The hint was a great help and the cache was easy to find.

I was looking a good day caching were it was more about walking than driving. Had been in the park next door awhile ago. So this part was always on the list.
Today was the day. Love the walk around the park.
Thank you for bringing me here.
Sorry for the generic post.
Cache a day to keep the doctor away, or is it to keep me sane. No it’s to keep my streak alive. TFTC Cantcacheus2014 ¥298. #1865 Finds.

Having an all day geocaching excursion with Oddiewan. Some decent terrains alongside some simples. Apologies for the generic log, but those that know me well know the logging struggle is REAL.
Caching buddy Semik.
Out and about hunting caches.
What a great piece of bush land to spend the day.

On our travels from Brisbane down to Mount Buffalo we searched and found som Geocaches. Thanks to all owners for the Caches.
Muggle husband once again spotted this cache. Now its 9/11 . Still my favour. Tftc
The 4th find along this power trail this morning...Another quick find following caching logic...TFTC!
Heute ist nur ein Reisetag, also kurz einen Abstellort für das CM gesucht. Irgendwie hatten wir noch Bock. Die Hitze hatte etwas nachgelassen und wir mussten auch noch ein bisschen das Schrittkonto aufbessern. Die offline Karte hat versagt, weil die meisten Wege nicht oder falsch eingezeichnet sind. Aber wayne, schließlich waren die Koordinaten richtig super! N u n n o c h e i n e ü b e r f l ü s s i g e I n f o r m a t i o n ü b e r d a s W e t t e r. Sorry for that. Wir haben nicht alle Caches gemacht. War auch nicht nötig, um die beiden Schlösser zu öffnen. LoL! Danke für die Runde insoweit.

Abreisetag Richtung Brisbane. Da der Weg vom O'Reilly's bis nach Brisbane nicht sehr lang ist, haben fazzyOne und ich uns entschieden heute mal wieder einen richtigen Cache-Tag einzulegen. Dafür haben wir uns einige Caches auf dem Weg und einen Powertrail im Wald herausgesucht. Erstaunlicherweise konnten wir tatsächlich alle Dosen finden, die wir gesucht haben. [:o] Allerdings wurden wir leider auch gefunden - von einigen Zecken. Zum Glück hat sich scheinbar keine festgesetzt. Danke für diesen sehr erfolgreichen (und sehr heißen!) Tag.
I apologise for the late and generic logs. Had some time off Geocaching but I'm back!
We needed to get the kids out of the house for the day as they were going mental which in turned left us going mental. So we loaded the car up and went for a trot through the forest. It was a great day which was only dampened by the darkness. Full of slow walking from the kids, excited reactions and arguments of who's going to open each cache and a bit of log hopping to get across a small creek.
Thank you cantcacheus, it's a great series to which we'll be back to finish off.

Skipped #3 after a failed search. With the sun kicking our butts we decided to finish with this one for now and try #3 on our way back out . Cheers! Spellzen, Teazr, Misy Moo, Chase and Zayne.
I’m not sure what is happening with my phone recently but it seems I have to close the geo-app after each cache to get it to point in the right direction. The metres count down but the compass points off at 90 degrees. I have enough problems following the yellow brick road after every tornado.
Thankfully each cache in this series has a hint which makes for quick finds because being misdirected an unknowledgeable is best left to politicians. tftc
