Good find it's sad that people just throw rubbish around there though but awesome
I wasn't too far away from this cache as I travelled north, so I detoured along Blackwall Road to this location. It wasn't long before I spotted this cache, to see a nicely constructed and added camouflage.The cache container and logbook were in good shape, but alas, the logbooks were shoved inside and overflowed, which was a bit of a shame. I took the TB that was enclosed inside, and I spent a few minutes cleaning up its contents and organising it better. Thanks [igotahunch](https://coord.info/PR9HJZK) for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.----------Today on my Flex Friday day off work, my plan was to the bushlands and national parks behind Lake Manchester, targeting "legendary" [The sit here in the shade cache](https://coord.info/GC4RV04) multi-cache.Initially, I detoured through North Ipswich and Chuwar for a couple of caches south of my targeted area, and then set off on my electric MTB from the Little Mermaid lookout trailhead. The morning was enjoyable as the terrain was friendlier, and the heat was reasonable. However, as I rode around my loop, I exhausted my water, e-MTB's battery, energy and morale, and the hills got steeper upon my return trip from Gold Creek Reservoir. It became quite hot and humid, and there was no wind to offset these tough conditions. Upon my return, I strategically detoured for a cold drink and picked up a few last Kenmore geocaches, before my swimming pool beckoned my return.
Nice wood on top. Might need a bit of maintenance on the top it was wobbly. Was taking a while to unscrew but turns out I just kept spinning it and wasn't pulling up lol. The log was dry but curled and peices came off. Alot of toys and stuff. There was a geocoin but someone took the coin out of it! Great cache though! Tftc
6779Thursday. Out today visiting relatives who lived just down the road, we decided to make a quick grab on this cache and then head off to visit friends. Killing two birds with one stone since we dont live near this area. What a lovely area and after wed just had a big downpour, the bush smell was also evident. We pulled over, made the grab and I admired the very sturdy cache container before signing the log and replacing. Lots of stuff inside this container and its all stuffed in. Thank you for placing this cache here for us to find today.This was the only cache found on this outing.Thanks ***igotahunch*** for showing us this place
Found on the 29/12/21 under old account armybrats4Found with joshwyatt83 and xman1507
I think this is my first find in years. Haven't had time lately, and noticed this one was close to home. Thankyou
This cache was in a creative spot and was very well hidden the disguise was really good too

I was doing some long drive favourite caches today and came along Blackwall Rd. It really is beautifully quiet out here. But I’m glad I was there in the day time and not in the eerie silence of the night. It was also nice and easy to spot the cache in the daylight. Great hide igotahunch!
Out for a drive today and stopped to collect this one. All found safe and sound. Dropped a TB to continue its journey. Tftc!
Not too hard to find. Left my name. There was ants inside, maybe due to the floss container?
Came to Fernvale for an eveny. Nice to do some caches afterwards.
Almost a park and grab!

After attending an Event at Fernvale today a small group of us headed off to get a few caches and this was one.
I almost parked beside it but it was on my wrong side. It was a well constructed cache so I've given it a FP. Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC

A nice easy find. We made the detour to here as the hidden date is one we need for our stats. A great cache container, thanks for the cache.
Loved the container as others before me have. Busy road in the afternoon.

Tftc. Was a nice easy one after the 5yo got beaten up by a prickle bush on the last one
That’s a nicely crafted cache... and full of swag too... left some American coin and TB-OR-2 Tb to carry on...

The best cache I have found yet, by far. Also slowly introducing my partner to it
After a lovely walk around Lake Manchester area, we took a few detours before heading back to Brisbane. This was one of them and it was a perfect drive-by. Excellent camouflage on the container where all is in very good condition.
Thanks igotahunch

We dropped by this cache last night, but as the description says - it was pitch black and so scary! It is far less intimidating coming here in the daylight! Thanks for the cache!!
The coordinates were out for me on this one, but stumbled across it pretty easily at 1800 hrs. TFTF
Nice and quick find tonight. Thank you for the cache all is good. Left some fairy dust
Mrs VC was keen for a drive & to grab a few more smilies and who am I to argue?
Nice cache story, especially the bit about the zombies.
Perhaps the REAL zombies are the countless cachers who come this way to wander blindly, arms outstretched holding phone or GPS & oblivious to all but their sole (soul?) purpose? LOL …
On approach we spied a likely spot which may very well hold what we seek.
We didn't wish to linger longer than necessary as we were definitely NOT going to be held responsible for the next zombie apocalypse.
Pulled the Geo-Beast to a halt about 200cm out of reach of the cache which Mr VC had 'accidently' spotted as he was trying to avoid hitting GZ while parking (& keeping a wary eye open for any approaching mist dwellers).
Mrs VC jumped out & raced around to GZ where she quickly grabbed the cache, made our mark & replaced as found.

Found on a wet Sunday drive on the way to Lake Manchester. Nice hide. TFTC
While camped at Allawah scout campgrounds for the weekend, we snuck out to grab a cache for International Geocaching Day. A quick find but had to get out of 4x4 to grab it.
Found on 18 August 2018. TFTC, igotahunch.

Taking a relaxing drive in the area and picking up a few caches along the way. This was the first on the list and I drove past and did a uey down the road and came back. I pulled up in the first spot that I found and then hopped out and checked the GPS A 20m stroll along the road to find that I could have parked within arms reach of the cache. A nice bit of camo should keep it hidden where it is.
