We arrived in Surat in the middle of the afternoon and worked our way around the eight caches that we had chosen to look for. There were many muggles in the area when we arrived - one in particular caused us to bide our time until he left. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks doscrapbooking for the cache.

We camped here in the caravan quite some years ago. No toilets here back then. Cache found, log signed. TFTC

Stopped here for Lunch and to find a couple of Caches. Might camp here tonight if we don't find a better spot.

Quick find TFTc

GPS a bit wobbly, found with a review of earlier posts. TFTC

Felt like I was looking up someones dress. But it didn't take long to extract and sign log. Thanks for the cache

Found with the Barret clanTFTC

Took a good 5 mins of searching but I had it if you have some experience you will find it pretty easy. Thanks to the previous log that said not at GZ! TFTC. last day driving back to Sydney!

Taking a wander north with goingplaces2 and leaving the cold behind. It only needed a quick stop here to make the find. All good with the container and log. TFTC.

This was where we decided to camp for the night with ilook4geo. There were heaps of campers around so we decided to leave the hunt until the closest ones had retreated into their van for the night. Then it was an easy find and the log was soon signed. Thanks for this cache placement go to doscrapbooking.

I am on my way to Roma to visit my sister for the week-end and do some geocaching together. I came from the South because of the new geocaches that were published last week further north from here. I was hoping they would not be found by the time I got here so I could collect a few 'first to find's' along the way. I am also hoping that one of these new geocaches will be my 15,000th find. I logged a dnf here in 2017. Today I made a quick find. Thanks for the cache.

Clue didnt help at all and not near GZ but broadened my search with success. TFTH

Lovely small town. Thanks to Surat for the free camp, made us stop and visit. STL LAsticker. TFTC

Took a bit of searching but found it eventually!

Fisherman's LooLoo was transferred from jpgordo to user doscrapbooking

Easy find, bend over and look up.

Not sure about the hint but made a quick find anyway. TFTC

Found it . First find for after a couple of years off.

T4t$Day 3 of our road trip from North Queensland to the Great Leap Forward Mega Event in Adelaide.

Traveling between woodford and Melbourne, we decided to take a lunch break and spell the geo-dogs. They aren't too impressed with the heat. We've been quite amazed how flat everything is out here, quite different from where we are from. The cache was quickly located thanks to the hint, though was a little tricky to spot. It's in good condition. It's definitely a popular park. Tftc

This is today's geocache for my "Finds by found date" calendar All nice and dry Tftc

On my way home after traveling through WA very slowly with muggle friends. Nearly home. Thought Id get some caches on the way. Great overnight camping spot. Nice hide. TFTC

Nice hide. TFTC

Lovely area to stay the night so much so we ended up staying two heading south on an extended vacation. Saw two river snakes yesterday as we were paddle boarding.

You've got to love the caches right where your camped, such a relaxed way to cache . Tftc

Found after short search by The X-Trailers. Now for a stroll. TFTC

After a bit of a search we located cache

Quick find with SJG66 as we head North in search of caches and warmer weather. TFTC

Found while staying here overnight
Very nice area

Reasonably quick find on a trip to Cape York. TFTC

Wow sneaky one Deserving of a fav Geohubbie made it a quick find as happened to be in the right place TFTC

If any Geocachers find our caches and need replacing would you be kind enough to change either or both container and paper. The j of jpgordo has dementia and unable to now do this. I thank you sincerely.

We all had a good look but found nothing perhaps it was washed away in the floods

Couldn't find this one after a while of trying

Looked several times, but no find. Very busy with campers. Will have to return to try again.

A trip to Perth checking out some of the awesome places along the way in ACT, NSW, Qld and NT. Grabbing some old caches and missing LGAs. TFTC.
I passed by a few weeks ago but couldn't find it. Looked around again today and finally found it. I could see something in the iron tunnel but it hopped when I shone a light on it.

Wow that was hard . First one in a long time , still excited as ever tftc

Bright spot

Well this took longer than I had anticipated, so I went back to the van while Mr Suelee soldiered on. Wasn’t long and he was back at the van wanting me to sign the log. Only a couple other campers here today. Tftc

Took a while - but bumped into another cacher who found it yesterday. Assured me it was here! Sneaky spot! ️

Slowly working our way back to Cairns after attending Qogm 2022. Did your Fisherman's LooLoo today. 20 October 2022 12:57 pm Tyfc jpgordo total caches now 5946 .

We decided to stop here for lunch and took the opportunity to wander over to find this cache while we were here. Definitely a sneaky hide!

Thanks for find #4004

We are heading to Cunnamulla from Maryborough.
Short hop today Roma to St George.
Nice to have some caches to look for along our route to break up our journey.
Tricky one but got to it

Yes!!! We had some luck. Wow, it was very tricky! Tftc

Find #5993

Having travelled through western NSW, the meander through south western QLD has begun. No fixed route, just wherever the mood (okay, and I'll be honest, the caches ) guide me

All caches are in good condition unless otherwise noted

Thanks so much jpgordo for putting out and maintaining this cache and for making taking me to new places to discover enjoy.

Spent way too much time here trying to dodge campers. Came up empty. Maybe come back on another trip to QLD.

Great Northern escape 2022 Day 3. Townsville Mega section Day 3. As I drove north from Dirranbadi to Emerald, I passed several spots, St George, Surat, Roma, Injune & Springsure. The highlight was Surat bridge being open, but the water was only just below road level.

This was another cache I have not managed to do on previous visits. On those occasions there were way too many people about to get a good look, even with the hint. Today with the water level so chose to the camp, there was pretty much no one here, so I could look until I found it. Just round the corner from where I was expecting it, but close enough. Another DNF cleaned up.

Thanks for the cache jpgordo

We arrived at this lovely free camp after a huge drive and were delighted at the scene and facilities. Headed over to GZ for an expected simple "there it is" find - after all it is just a D of 1.0 - but after searching for about 10 minutes we had to give up as we were also attracting a few "hands on hips" what's going on over there from other campers.

Day 3 of a road trip to Townsville to with LuckyL10n and today we drove from Surat through Roma, Muckadilla, Wallumbilla, Taroom, Theodore, Eidsvold and Mundubbera were we finished for the day.

Lots of different caches found, all without any major issues. We dodge the floodwaters around Surat although the bridge is certainly under threat of going under in the next few days.

Thanks to all caches owners. Most logs were signed SDL / L Lion.

#13554 - 8:18:00 AM; Day three of the Townsville Mega adventure with Sol de lune and after spending the night in Surat, set out to collect the local caches before heading further afield. It would be a long day on the road as we added counties to our caching maps. The many places visited included Roma, Muckadilla, Wallumbilla, Jackson, Taroom, Theodore and Eidsvold and on to Mundubbera for the night. Another spot to check out the rising river levels as we located the well disguised cache on our way out of town. All caches were found in good order unless otherwise noted in the logs. All logs were signed L.L10n and Sdl or vice versa. Apologies for the largely generic logs [:o)] TFTC jpgordo

Clean loos

Wow. This really did blend in!

This may be my 3rd visit looking for this cache. The previous times camp was too full to have a serious look. Today there was 9nly 1 other camper here so time to start hunting.

Luckily I found it straight away. Log signed and replaced.

Tftc.

Awesome hiding spot

That was a very tricky one! A fav point for the awesome hide!

Staying here for a night. Exploring Surat tomorrow.

Tftc jpgordo

On my first attempt, I didn't find it. So I called hubby to look for it. After a PAF and another search, we found it.

Very well hidden! A fav point!

Nice little caching weekend Beaudesert to Nindigully on Friday night, exploring Thallon & St George on the Saturday, then Nindigully back to Beaudesert vis Surat, Meandarra & Dalby. Had a blast, found all but one cache, and cleaned up the map a lot. 13 down, out of 26, All caches were either stamped or signed with either RC13 or Rogersclan13 depending on space.

Nice campsite here, definately added to the list of ones for the future. Unlike the other one in this campsite, this was a pain to find. Something that should have been so simple turned out not to be. All in good condition

Thanks for the cache **jpgordo**

TFTC. We are staying here for 2 nights. Spitted thus campsite 2 years ago when we were up this way. Wanted to come back and stay. So here we are. Left my non/ geocacher husband fixing the brake on one of our caravan wheels while I geocache. I would have been a hindrance if I stayed. I’m visiting from the Hunter Valley. Left I. May been up to Darwin etc and on our way back . Hope they let us into our state.

Quick find on a day trip to Surat from Roma despite al the muggles around

We looked around found it. Tfhc

Great hide but took the four of us to find Signed log and replaced as found. TFTC

Second time here but we conquered it bit of a hard one

Finally found it with plenty of muggles about making it awkward to search. TFTC. SL

Today was a meander to Surat for caching and sightseeing. There is a giant aquarium in a Council building and lots of other interesting things to see Mopped up the caches as best I could Reckon the road between Roma and Surat wouldn’t need much encouragement to flood Forgot to bring my wallet and nice lady happily let me count out silver to buy hot coffee ️ and cheesecake. Must be feeling rusty Enjoyed my outing Hope the bottle trees in the front paddock grow as well as those around this region.

Use your eyes, under the south-east, closest corner to the yellow poles. Blends in well.

Not found

I popped in here to fish around for a cache
Oooh !! Under the Loo !! [:o]
With so many muggles coming and GOING !!
I could only manage a quick wipe of the building's bum
And I couldn't flush this cache out of hiding !!

Staying at the fantastic free camp so we could bide our time for as muggle free find as we were likely to get in a popular free camp. Early was the time and sneaky was the hide. TFTC jpgordo.

Beautiful location, quick find.

Very good thanks

Need my seeing eye dog. Haha. Looked past it many times.

Took a while and had us stumped for a bit. Co-it’s were slightly off but still locatable

Yep like that one! TFTC

Nice find.
