Out with CuriousQuest, finding a few caches. Having completed the Frilled Neck Lizard Circuit Trail, we had all the required information. I was happy to see that GZ was not too far from where we were, so we continued along the trail towards GZ. This cache was quickly located and the log signed. With everything returned as found, we headed off tot he next one. TFTC
After an early morning event in the company of Selva Girls, we both headed out to Spring Field and found an assortment of caches and this was one of them. All caches were found easily enough and (once the log was signed) all were returned as found. TFTC
Ive had this series on my radar for a while, so after finding a few caches with BrissyCat, who has already found these, I parked at Grande Park as there were a couple of other caches to find and this was sort of central. I calculated the final and headed to gz which was about 8m out for me. There was a tiny bit of water in the box, but pretty good really. Logbook signed and replaced as found. Tftc and nice series.
At Orion getting a haircut this morning and afterwards, decided to walk the nearby 2.5 kilometer Frilled Neck Lizzard Circuit within the White Rock - Spring Mountain Conservation Estate.Nice cool day for the walk and to collect a few caches along the way. No one else was seen during my walk which made finding the caches that much easier.Collected the necessary hints from the six FNLC caches and a viable set of coords. A short bush bash had me at GZ with cache in hand. Log book was a little damp but signable.Thanks for an enjoyable series of caches and a nice stroll through the bush.TFTmysteryC. 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 # 2112.
After an early morning event in the city I headed home and got a half day in and after ticking all the boxes for the day I headed out to and tack a few caches on the south side.After finding a safe place to park the car I quickly made my way to ground zero where the cache was quickly found. I recovered the log and made my mark for longevity. Returned and back to the car and off to the next adventure.A big thanks to the cache owner for making this cache available to be found by fellow cachers.Cheers
Regarding our walk, we set out on this walk at 08:35 hr, and departed from the Wild Iris Terrace trailhead, i.e. the posted coordinates of [Frilled Neck Lizard Circuit Trail](https://coord.info/GC65370). We walked (i.e. I carried baby Cottontail in the backpack) a total distance of 7 km across an elevation of 166 m, and in terms of timing, totalling 2 hr and a moving time of 1:35 hr, as per my [Strava record](https://www.strava.com/activities/10242723301). Some fairly large kangaroos were spotted during our walk, but otherwise, there were no encounters with any slithery animals or ticks.I had kept this bonus cache in mind during our walk this morning, and clues were collected without issue, which was quite surprising as I've found that there generally is 1-2 issues with older series caches and clues. We walked to this bonus cache whilst walking back to the car, and after a short search, the nicely sized cache container was found, which contained a bunch of swag! I was expecting a bonus animal to be here, but otherwise all good - The cache container and logbook were in good shape. A Favourite Point for the effort for this circuit series; Thanks [Gaz'n'Kab](https://coord.info/PR2WHK7) for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.----------Today, baby Cottontail and I visited the Springfield area (Springfield Central and Springfield Lakes). The plan was to walk the Frilled Neck Lizard Circuit (FNLC) that is within the Spring Mountain Conservation Estate before it got too hot, which was a hit with baby Cottontail given the variety of themed animal hides. Our other highlight was Grande Park's playground and RAAF Beaufort Bomber memorial. We then returned home via a strategic bakery lunch stop to then have an afternoon home play. We also visited a few Locations in the [Coffee Capers around Springfield Lakes](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/3497f3de-917a-4df1-acc3-0984823a82fc) Adventure Lab.
TFTC. Thanks for the series. Was my first ever ? caches. Took a couple of goes to find this last one cause I’m new at dialling in the coordinates.
My youngest, GeoM, was keen to do something with the family on Ekka Day but the older kids had rehearsals to attend. So I decided to do this walk with GeoM and then hubby decided to come along too.
As I was missing one of the numbers, I looked at the 2 possibilities and went with the option that was not in the middle of a house. We searched the area for a while before I decided to check my numbers again and sure enough, I had made a mistake. We moved on to another spot and looked around, again finding nothing. In the end I went back to #1 to find the missing number and sure enough, I had guessed it wrong. With the other correction made, this location was no longer in the middle of a house, but in a very feasible location.
So we headed off to look a third time and this time we hit the jackpot. Great final cache with lots of cool swaps. I particularly liked the camo on the container. This was definitely my favourite of all the caches and a great challenge finding it. Well done Gaz’n’Kab on a fun series! We all had a great day together.

A nice little walk planned for today with Fangsoki and 1MinniMoo, and a few caches long on my todo list finally ticked. What a lovely little trail and so close to the old home. With pretty critters greeting me along the way. Final was calculated and found fairly quickly (I reckon I was out by a couple metres, this tree not that one but all good). Such a great morngin's stroll and a fantastic trail. Thankyou thankyou. Now - Alexa, navigate to nearest coffee. Mush!
Thanks Gaz'n'Kab for entertaining me at this location.

With some work on the Southside completed, I meet up with Triple turmoil who said she needed a cache for the day. We worked out an area and we headed off. Although she had completed these caches a while ago it was nice for her to fix up her notes. It was on some fantastic walking trails and the caches in here were nice and easy to find. Oh and there is a bonus attached to them, awesome. We wondered around collecting information and signing logs. I really enjoyed the time in here and the fun caches. All collected it was time to collect the bonus. AHH But Wait there is a new cache inhere which was the main reason for the visit.
This series gets a favourite point from me, thanks

I wanted to head off on a little geocaching adventure when my nephew, Benny Slays, decided to join me for a bushwalk. Muggle hubby and Muggle nephew came too with a little less enthusiasm lol
At the Fun Guy we calculated two possible final coords and given they were mere metres apart, we dove into the bush and started looking . It wasn’t long before we came up with the goods. The kids liked looking at all the swaps but were happy to return for someone else.
Thanks for a fun Sunday afternoon activity. Now to Springfield for some Gong cha ️

With one number missing, I took the northern of two options and quickly found it. Thanks for the fun Gaz'n'Kab
7th and final find of the trail.
With slightly inaccurate coordinates, every stump and deadfall begins to look like a good hiding spot and every trampled bit of something begins to look like a geo-trail. Took about 10 minutes to locate once in the area.
Thanks for all the caches along this trail!

Out caching with FischerBoy99. Nice walking track and cool mystery. As FischerBoy99 said in his log, we forgot to get the info from the caches until the 4th one I think but we made do and managed to get the info we needed without backtracking. Tftc!
very nice mystery cache ya got here. Forgot to look for a clue in the snail, which means we had 2 potential locations. It wasnt hard to find however
It's been a while since I've been out for a day of caching in the suburbs of Brisbane. After a quick trawl through my GSAK database, I had my eye on a number of unloved caches in the area and managed to rope in Crookedpete to team up with me today.
With the rest of the series completed we found ourselves only one number short due to a damaged container. Luckily it was a number that wasn't going to make much difference in the scheme of things. Planning on having to potentially widen our search zone, the cache was found on approach to our indicated GZ. Cache and contents safe and dry on this one. TFTC

With a Sunday free of domestic duties and finally some wonderful Queensland winter weather, Seffnjarah and I headed out to Brisbane's west today, exclusively targeting unloved caches. There was certainly no shortage of targets!
This entire series looked to be unloved, so it was time to up the step count on the Frilled Neck Lizard Circuit.
Having completed the circuit, with one clue missing, we had two options for the final. As always, it was the second one..... Many thanks for this series, GaznKab

I took a muggle for a walk to show him all about this "fun" I have been talking about. Glad that this was an easy, achievable series that demonstrated the success of caching. From the second one, we worked out there was a theme to the caches. Yes, there is a lot of wildlife in this park
I was hoping we were going to be able to finish this series with #3 clue out of action due to fire. But when I typed in the 2 possible numbers, it put me at 2 coords only 20m apart. Yay! That meant it was an easy find to finish off.

As we made our walk around the Trail today, we collected all the necessary information at each container and then number-crunched these, which gave us a good-looking sort of coordinates.
Before heading back out of the bush, we took a detour to this one and have signed the log.
The whole series was excellent. The containers are quirky and appropriate in their cuteness and camouflage. Very nice!
A definite favourite added to this one for the entire series.
Thanks Gaz’n’Kab

Happy Australia Day! Out for a spot of geocaching on a hot day. Loved the caches, kept us giggling along the way
Great series and a reason to get out and about in my new neighbourhood. TFTC and the Series
A nice simple and fun series of caches. Final GZ was easily worked out and cache was found in good condition. A fav from me. TFTC
Thanks for an awesome series this was lots of fun and the kids loved all the guardians !
Awesome series. Love your work. All caches easily found in a magical piece of bush. Pity the council won't allow the hounds along for a run.
Your favourite point is on the last cache. Sorry I have run out.

In the area today to visit some family on this side of town, I decided to head out to work on this series while I was nearby.
After finding all of the traditionals in the series, I quickly worked out the co-ords for the final. Making my way along the peaceful reserve pathways, I arrived at the final gz and quickly spotted the cache. Log signed, all replaced as found, all is well with the cache.
Thanks Gaz'n'Kab for placing this great series, a fav from me.

Disappointed not to see a frill necked lizard but a great series and final cache. Thanks very much!
Came this way today to complete a nearby Mystery Cache. However arrived only to find I didn't have the required TOTT, ie A 4WD, the SUV just wasn't going to cut it.
This series was my back up plan, and I have to say that they did not disappoint. So much so, that I have decided to log this series at home to do them the justice that they deserve.
I really enjoyed this trail. Having collected the necessary clues around the trail, I resorted to the GPS and was lead to a section of trail that had lots of likely spots. The almost mandatory GPS bounce had me going round and round for awhile, however I was determined to come away with at least one Mystery Cache for the day. Perseverance paid off.
Lucky I had the entire reserve to myself today as it allowed the taking of many pics for visiting TBs.
I left some American Coin here and iCache Geocoin to carry on.
Thanks for a well constructed series. Fave points all round!

My muggle husband and I decided to take a walk for our daily exercise and i was keen to do this series. I contacted the co to see if I could help With maintenance and with the go ahead I came prepared to make sure all the waypoints had information needed. This was such a fun series. Definitely a FP from me. Thanks for all the fun.
Out for some much needed exercise in the bush here. By sheer luck we there were a few caches hidden not too far from our trail.
Completed the circuit, with a few of the clues missing I had to PAF for some assistance in finding this one.
Hope that CO get out to maintain, in the meantime, EF is 75
Even if this trail needs some TLC leave an FP for the work that has gone into this
thank you

Out for a morning walk hubby & the kids this trail was beautiful, and made better by some great caches! Dropping a favourite point on as many of the series as I can for the walk, great cache guardians, and names that gave us a few laughs.
We only found three clues in the caches but reached out to the CO, then a previous finder to fill in the blanks! Thanks for a great series ️

We’ve only been caching for a couple of weeks and we were looking for a good trail to take the kids on. I was thrilled when I found this series not too far from home. It was a great afternoon out and the kids loved it, the caches are fantastic. Thanks to the CO for bringing us to this great spot, we will definitely be back for another walk around. TFTC
After spending two amazing weeks in New Zealand Oztriaco and I visited our friends Mojo1001 in Brisbane. For today Jo took a day off work and showed us around. First we made a walk in the White Rock area. After that we came here to visited some of Frilled Neck Lizard circuit caches. There were really nice containers. After finding them all we got the correct coordinates for this mystery. I gave you a FP here for the whole circuit. Thanks for the cache and greetings from Austria.
Nice finish of a great day of caching with blumenwiese and oztriaco visting from Austria! TFTC
After spending two more than amazing weeks in NZ, blumen-wiese and I prolonged our holidays for a few days, visiting our very dear friends Mojo1001 in Brisbane. On one of these days, Jo took a day off work and showed us around the White Rock area, where we spent a few hours walking about and finding several caches along the way.
This included the Frilled Neck Lizard Circuit. I liked how all the containers of this series were in some ways different from the typical plastic boxes, but what I liked most were the funny word plays in the cache titles that sometimes only became clear after finding the respective cache.
Representative for the whole FLNC trail, the bonus cache receives a favo from me.

This was a great series, and the track was good training for an upcoming hiking trip we have. This series would be awesome for families with kids, as the caches are fun and he swag at the end was the best we’ve seen in a while. Thanks again!
Wandered around the series last week, but left this one for later. Had difficulty with the cache clue for "F=", but noted that this made little difference to GZ location.
Had a few minutes spare on the way home from Ipswich, so diverted to the park entry point, donned the survival gear, chivvied the porters along and set out for GZ. Should have brought the chainsaw along, but managed without, and arrived in the vicinity of true GZ, and set about searching for the cache while the porters set up the table and chair and brewed some tea and scones.
Cache found fairly easily, thanks, but the porters had forgotten to bring any swaps. . Added the name to the log, and replaced the cache, then enjoyed the cream tea . TFTC, and TFT series, Gaz'n'Kab.

2nd attempt with another DNF. Either my calculations were wrong or the coordinates are a bit dodgy
We found the other caches in this series last weekend but didn't have the time to look for this last one. So we came back today to find it.
We had no luck until we widened our search area. All is in great condition here.
Thanks for a beaut series, great caches and lovely walk.

TFTC... 27/2/2018. Ran out of time first day, came back and widened the area a bit. Soon logged it. Area nearby has been cleared up so maybe a trail head park is coming.
Found close to where the gps was pointing, enjoyed this circuit in the afternoon, no problems with the containers or the coordinates, thanks for an excellent series and the break from drive from Bribie to Toowoomba.
For a long time I have wanted to get out to Springfield and find this series. Sadly I'm not one to rush and it's been two years in the waiting. Fangsoki was keen to get out for some geocaching and I suggested this series. Afterall it is the middle of summer and clambering up hills and mountains isn't ideal. As it turned out, this walk was well hot and sweaty enough.
I had carefully documented this trip with photos and voice memos, but wouldn't you know it, a computer crash and backup fail means that's all gone. So hope you weren't looking for intricate details of my log as we all now get to rely on my memory!
As a crazy idea, we chose to do the series in order, so having collected all six clues, went about the mathematics, substitution and tongue waggling to work out where this final is. I had contemplated jet-skiing it a long time ago, but it's hardly worth it. We raced around the series pretty quickly and it's just enjoyable!
We'd calculated a likely GZ so headed off. This far into the bush was a bit concerning, but not unlikely. A few spiderwebs got disturbed along the way. The geocache was spotted a short distance away and happy to report everything in good condition. Logbook signed and replaced as found. It's hot and humid and now we're back to the car with it's magical cold features! I'm glad I finally made the effort to find this series - would recommend! Thanks for this series, Gaz'n'Kab

Captain Terror and I moseyed onto this calculated final.
I did wonder if we were actually going to be in the right place as we crashed through the bush. But after many a spiderweb.. and sadly some spiders, we arrived where our various devices told us.
I soon spotted the cache a little way off. We signed the log and re-hid the cache as found.
An excellent little walk. Can't believe we took so long to to do it. TFTC Gaz'n'Kab

I planned to drop off all my travel bugs but got scared off by a muggle before I had the chance to open my backpack.
Shame about all the trash dumped around the place.

1MinnieMoo and i were out for an afternoon cache date. the Trad cache trail was a very pleasant way to spend an afternoon with great company, walking hand in hand, and making plenty of jokes, we could have been a million miles from anywhere, rather then my own backyard. anyhow after completing the circuit we had all the clues, and 1MinnieMoo had the answer to the ? before i could even think about it ( she is a WIZ ! ) so of we headed to the final destination. as we wondered along, i suggested, this could be a micro on the sign for all we knew, but nope, of into the bush we went, really upset me to see the rubbish people dump around the place, there is a FAMILY fridge here in the bush with a quick search 1MinnieMoo found the cache we signed the log and placed it all back, and headed for the car. Thanks again Gaz n Kab, great series very well done, have a FAV point from me

After grabbing the last cache I suggested to mcm726 that we solve it before going too far "just in case". So we stopped for a second and crunched our numbers, and soon had a nice set staring back at us.
Along we headed joking about the idea of the final being a micro on the sign where we first started, but soon we headed into the bush for a better sized cache than that. We noticed someone had left a fridge and stuff around here, but headed past that and made our find.
Thanks for the series Gaz'n'Kab, and the lovely use of different caches. We had a great afternoon out here today.

Today we headed towards Ipswich. It was a lovely day after the rain earlier in the week and we decided to explore the Frill Necked Lizard Circuit. It was an easy walk except for some small sections where the runoff from very heavy rain had washed deep ruts into the sandy track. Reasonably accurate coordinates and the hints led to quick finds of each of the caches, nearly all of which had a novelty theme. The containers and contents were in good condition and the data for the final cache in the series was very clear and the coordinates for this cache were quickly calculated. The GPS was a little erratic in this area and it took a little longer to locate this cache. Thanks Gaz'n'Kab for the FNLC series in a very pleasant area. The FNLC series earns a favourite from us.
Confident of a quick find here we darted into the woods but took quite some time to locate the cache. While walking round we saw a skippy, several lizards (no frilly necks) several large colourful butterflies, ants of course, and that huntsman. Thanks for setting and maintaining this cache circuit. Greetings from the UK
Round and round I go, where I stop nobody knows. Checked a few potential spots around GZ locating this one. Did not spy the right spot hiding in the greenery.
PS the fridge is out of beers. [:o)]
Thanks for a fun little trail to ride around. Oh yeah, the cache containers were pretty cool too.
A favourite point for the series on this one. [^]

Had a nice stroll those the woods here, loved all the cache containers. Managed to work out the final location despite a missing cache and unreadable clue. Dropping a favourite point for the series.
What a nice day to go Caching.. put a call out last week that i wanted to go. had JACS team respond.. so we organised a day and swapped the digits.. Organised a meeting spot to start the adventure.. finally getting to the same meeting place... we put our heads together and came up with an action plan. started solving one multi but as shops where still closed made it harder. so we changed our plan and jumped in the car and set off on our adventure to find caches. had a great day out thanks JACS team. You've Been Bear'd
That was a great little trail! Nice container full of loot and in good order. Took something left something. TFTC!
After grabbing all the needed caches and the information I headed off to grab this one. It took far longer than expected to find. Widening my search area but all in the wrong directions. Eventually I headed in the right direction and made the find. Great hide, thanks for the series and this final Gaz'n'Kab
Yes! Finally we went to this cache round. I wanted to do this one already before my holidays to Thailand but RoddyC said no the last time. Today we did it. Oh I love it! That's the kind of caches which I love. Nice walk, circuit and with a bonus cache. Additionally there are cute cache containers. Just lovely! My highlight if the day. We walked around an hour to collect all caches. I enjoyed myself a lot.
Geocaching day at Springfield area: 20 cache target with 5 Mysteries , a Multi and a Letterbox. Can we do it? With such a great team (2 RoddyCs, Joojoo57, Nadine1989 at the start, then joined shortly after by KerriMG, and after lunch Patrol14 and Sewrainbow join in), who says we can't do it!
Completed the six pre-requisites: worked out the numbers and set in off the path, but only RoddyC stuck to the feint Geo-trail and found the cache!
Log signed by all & replaced again. Found at 12.20pm on 28th July 2016. TFTC

We had completed the 6 caches & Joojoo57 had noted all the answers down as we went along. The clue was pretty difficult to read at cache #3 so we had a bit of a guess on this one & came up with some final co-ords that looked good.
At GZ we all went in different directions & after about 5 minutes RoddyC made the find.
I really enjoyed this series, a nice walk through a great patch of bushland, good company, cute containers & a puzzle at the end, a favourite point from me.
Thanks for the series Gaz'n'Kab

Out for a day of caching with RoddyC and nadine1989. We had a most enjoyable walk around this reserve and loved all the interesting containers. Thanks Gaz'n'Kab.
As sunlight began to fade, there was a bit of pressure to make the find, especially when I wasn't sure of one digit.
There seems to be a pretty decent geotrail to the general GZ, but then I jumped round all over the place trying to spot it.
I was pretty close to a DNF but when I finally saw it, I realised I must have been nearly standing on it a few minutes earlier. Gosh.
All is fine inside at least, so TFTC and have a Favourite Point for the series which is a good one and not too physically demanding.

A pleasant walk around this circuit this morning in between the rain showers. Nice and quiet along here with just the birds singing their songs. The recent rain had along brought out the fresh smells of bush which was quite pleasant. Armed with all the clues I reached the GZ. A couple of obvious spots but my phone was saying GZ was here.. so I stretched it out a little further and found the cache well hidden under the natural cammo. TFTC and the little series here Gaz'n'Kab
No joy after collecting all the clues. The GZ shows signs of a lot of recent scuffling & foot traffic so maybe it's been muggled??
After the BBQ Meet'n'Greet v3 on Australia Day, Brother Colin and I went off to find a few more caches in the area.
This series was a pleasant little ramble All co-ords were spot on, all the (very cute) caches were in place, all clues were easily sorted, no difficulty solving the final, and 7 smileys done in 40 minutes [^] Nice TFTC, Gaz'n'Kab.

After attending the nearby event today IolantheK and I headed out to find a few caches.
We parked at the start of the track and made our way around the circuit over about 40 mins.
All caches were a quick find and loved the containers along the way.
Obviously we grabbed the clues as we went along and really enjoyed the walk. [^]
Thanks for the cache.

After wandering around the previously found FNLC caches to get the clues it was time to finish this off. A quick easy find, good to get the last smilie here! TFTC
Having gathered all the clues and crunched the numbers its always nice to find the cache exactly where my calculations said it should be.
A great series for young and old, variety of fun containers and short enough to take the young ones or introduce new cachers to. TFTC

After a bit over an hour picking up the prerequisite caches and the nearby challenge cache, I crunched the final location for this one and made my way to GZ on the return trip to the car... [^]
Mrs Gunnie chose to leave me at this point and trek to the comfort of the Gunniemobile, while I took the detour to GZ and availed myself of one last hunt...
On arrival at GZ, I spotted a likely location and quickly found the container. With the log out and a sticker added to mark my visit, the series was complete and I was a happy man.
Thanks for a neat series in a great little spot. The variety and theme of the containers was cool and a nice size container to finish off. A favourite point from me.
Cheers Gaz'n'Kab.

Thankfully we wrote down all the clues as we went along. It took a minute or so to get the coordinates for the cache and then we were off to make the find. It wasn't long before we made it to GZ and not far I could see the cache and quickly went over to put my tally up for our family friendly comp. After we signed the log and returned the cache a quick tally put Black Flag Angel at the top of the tally for cache finds for this trail. Her prize? A gift voucher for a massage, money well spent I'd say. TFTC, great work on this trail, very creative and fun.
A great little series, just what I needed to cheer myself up after a break from caching. Thanks Gaz'n'Kab, A favourite point from me also.
Got it left tb

Yeah found the ultimate cache of the FNLC series. I am so pleased that Crew153 told me about this series on Tuesday night. Perfect for little kids to do. A nice short walk, all cute containers and some fun guessing answers! All three kids had a wonderful time and enjoyed it very much. I don't have many FP's to allocate so I can't leave one for each container even though they are worthy of one. So I'll award one to this cache in honour of the whole walk. Thanks for thinking of the kids out there who cache and putting a nice series together for them to enjoy. This cache was quick to locate after looking in one wrong spot. Left Koala TB and took plane TB. Thanks again.
It was evident that I had arrived at the same results as the previous cachers as I could see telltale marks and scratchings.
I spent a while wandering around until I spotted the cache container. It was well hidden but well within error range of GPS readings.
Thanks for putting out this great series. This is what I believe geocaching should be about. A pleasant walk to find interesting caches with attempt to frustrate the searchers.
A favorite point from me.

Out on the JETSKI with Mrs Lat&Long today and this cache was our target. It was in the first place we looked, but of course, we didn't see it the first time we looked in the first place. So we looked in three other places, not far away, before returning to the first one and after quite some time, still didn't see it. The only thing missing, apart from the cache, appeared to be blood. So I duly stabbed myself on a handy stick and lo and behold, the cache appeared and for the first time since arriving, I was a happy boy. Thanks for placing this one and sorry I didn't see the sights in the process . I hope you enjoy the little man we left in your letterbox. We saw him in New York, and as we couldn't bring Central Park to you, we thought he'd be the next best thing.
Found when I accompanied Mr LLJ on a very pleasant walk through the trees this afternoon. Mr LLJ does all this maths caper.
I found a huge Brush Turkey mound whilst searching. No birds around so I wonder if it has been abandoned or is it the wrong season....?
2 noisy [:(!] trail bikes scooted through as we were leaving. One fellow was obviously very new at riding his bike as he slowed to a crawl as he rode over the small hump in the track.
TFTC and the opportunity to walk through here.
No Frilly Lizards today.

Found with bennyboppers, misssusan, mnance and jemillalucy today. After doing the loop and collecting all the clues we made our way to the final which took a little hunting but found after a while. This was a great little series and nice to have another little trail close to home. Thanks for all the caches in the area. A favourite point for the series. Tftc
Bit hot out here today!. In the area doing a few puzzles. Loved this one. Must bring the kids back for to this trail. TFTC.
A great trail out here. Very child friendly too for those interested. Thanks for a great walk.
Out caching with misssusan, Bennyboppers, Lisylou and Jemillalucy. I really enjoyed going to the waypoints and solving this cache. Dropped off TB. TFTC Gaz and Kab!
On a day out with barbbowman and Raynorsinoz.
After completing the trail and obtaining our clues it was on to the final.
Great little series and worth a FP from me.

Barbb, FastEd59 and I have enjoyed our morning in the Springfield Lakes area. We came over to find the FNLC caches and the FNLC trail puzzle. FastEd and I had written down the clues and we both did the calculations - yay our coordinates are the same! Off we go! This is a really nice place to go for a walk, it doesn't feel like we're in suburbia. It didn't take long to reach GZ and we soon had the cache in hand. TFTC Gaz'n'Kab, a fave point for you, for a lovely adventure in the bush
of on an adventure with raynersinoz, fasted 59 and tinman
lots of small log books today so we have become bb fe and rio
FNLC ... this little walk was our one of our main aims for today
hmm ... not the container we were expecting
am a bit worried about manicwombat and mightymouse
we have been following them but they didn't make it to the final
i fear a Frilled Neck Lizard has run off into the bushes with them [:o)]
fe and rio have the pens and paper doing all the math so i get to sign all the fnlc logs
took fly (rio says it is a cicada)
left green ribbon
