Nice to find a decent sized container.

Today we have paired up with Temingi for an assault on as many caches north of Mackay that we can fit into the day. Armed with multiple navigating devices, iPads and iPhones galore, bits of paper, clipboards and a huge pile of TOTT’s we are hopeful that no caches escape our three sets of eagle eyes. We even remembered to bring a few spare pens!

Thanks to all the local owners who have developed, placed and maintained these caches. We known how much effort it takes, and we really do appreciate it. Without you we would not be able to participate in this wonderful, frustrating, enjoyable and challenging pastime.

Day 22 and the start of our return road trip home from Townsville to the Gold Coast with hatzofff, grannysmith1947 and RoddyC.

We did a detour off the highway as we had targeted a few caches in this area which we ran out of time to do on our previous visit whilst heading north.

Great cache, good hide, thanks CO.

F(H)ound it! #2880 @ 3:35 PM

We are visiting Mackay from Queanbeyan with the two geohounds for a few restful days. The Reluctant-GeoSpouse, Muggle-Out-Laws and two geohounds joined me for a few caches around Mackay.
After a lovely lunch at Eimeo pub from where we saw a couple of whales frolicking out to sea we are heading southwards for a few more caches. This area was lovely for a dog walk, so long as one kept moving to stay ahead of the mozzies Smile. The cache was covered in ants but it is a strong and robust container so I tossed it a couple of times to clear the hitchhikers. The contents are in good condition. We didn't see any turkeys but saw plenty of echidna tracks.

Thanks for the cache, Cache Quest [ZA]
