No find here for me today, and the condition of a potential hiding spot mentioned by previous cachers is becoming deteriorated. TFTH Sphir3.
Cache has been removed due to possibility of cachers causing damage to area while searching.
GREAT FIND!!
Left a gift swap gift with a new gift. Be kind have a great day!!

Been here before and couldn't find it. Brought my daughter back today and she found it straight away lol.
I could not not find this cache, looked for about 30mins and was unsuccessful.
Anybody gave any extra clues?

A drive up to Gympie today to clear up a few of the caches in this area although maybe not a good idea in this heat and it was really hot on top. Took a bit of finding as it wasn't where we thought it would be hiding but persistence paid off in the end. TFTC SPIKE
Thank you Deafcat and Deafpham for taking us out here tonight, we were fortunate to see the nye fireworks. Played the hot and cold game til we found the greatest hide of all. Thank you
I searched long and hard but have absolutely no idea where this one is hiding. I will watch it.
Looked for about 10 minutes. The hint confuses me. Will be back for that one.
Found it at last! Lid off container, log exposed to weather and completely drenched after overnight rain ️ so not signed - in town for work and don’t have all caching gear with me to fix for CO. Looks very muggled - certainly no cacher would leave it like that.
This cache is not held by strong forces anymore. Don’t go by old photos of what the cache container looks like either. Very little black container with very little paper in it. May need maintenance? Reach for the sky!!
Hi there SPlKE.
We are currently staying at Standown Park, Standown Park. It was originally set up as a Veterans Retreat for ‘their mates and later opened to the public to enjoy. Over the years it has grown to become a "home away from home" for many Veterans of all ages and all conflicts plus their families.
Today's venture had us heading in to Gympie to bag a few caches. As today is Remembrance day, we just had to finish the day with "Remember".
>They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old;
>Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn;
>At the going down of the sun, and in the morning
>We will remember them.
All up we found 13 caches & DNF'd 0. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places while we meander around Australia.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache about 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Quick easy find on a very hot day. Travelling from McKay to Palmwoods so happy for an excuse to stop. Been to Gympie 18years ago for a music festival was a good day.
Cache is good and GPS was exact. Hi from NZ and TFTC

Great view tf tc had to wait for someone to leave before we could revive the stash.
We thought we had a good look around but no luck here for us today.
So glad we didn't need the cache In Case of Emergency.
Thanks

Wow , it wasn’t as close to the Art wall as I thought it would be, we found it

This little cheeky geochache was a tricky one. It seems obvious once you find it! “The sky is above”
Found as Nicnax with PapaGrouch. I have been trying to find at least one cache in each place we stop on our holiday. We stayed in Gympie overnight but rushed away to an event in Widgee before we had found a cache, so on the return trip we stopped and found this one. TFTC
Had a little trouble finding it on the first try but decided to move on and come back later at which time we found it. Signed log and replace where we found it..
Took a while, the 2nd level graffiti talk threw us off the trail. TFTC. Left a small trinket
A quick and easy find here today. Note to the previous geocacher - don't think you were looking at the correct thing as not much of a reach if any is required for this one! TFTC
Think I spy it but can’t reach...maintenance needed? I’ll return next time I’m in town
Yeah found it on our second visit. Definitely was not there last time we looked.
After an early morning event at Kin Kin I headed north with El Peregrinos to grab a few caches. We managed to find a variety of caches during the day and this was one of them. We managed to take a break and enjoyed a nice counter lunch in Gympie.
Once the logs were signed all was returned as found.

We came upon your cache, Sphir3, while spending a day geocaching around Gympie.
We could not find anything here so left it to submit a DNF. Then we PAFd and Oh! Didn't think to look in there. Went back and there was a cache with a nice clean log sheet. Oh well.
