Council have had a clean up.
With so many other caches to maintain, I am archiving this one.

Got it after a bit of a look see. GPS all over the place due to the tree cover. TFTC
I taught my 61 mother how to play this game and this was her first find! Thank you very much for this one, took us a few days and we left our own little gift. We practically stepped on the container the first few minutes trying to find it
Exploring the area we picked up a few caches and this was one of them.
Cache and contents were in good condition.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Took a while but eventually we spotted it. Never assume you know what you are looking for. Lol We were looking for something more difficult when this was a basic cache. Took TB. TFTC
Found a likely hidey hole but it was empty. Was hoping to pick up a TB to take with us while exploring with interstate visitors. Oh well. Thanks for the challenge!
After reading previous logs, I thought this was going to be hard to find ... but gps took me right to gz ... looked around and and spied hiding spot right away. Signed log and replaced cache under some natural camo. T4T$ Cheers.
Early morning caching on my own - yay. Needed a phone a friend hint but when I had my caching eyes on I found it - late log as I had been using my new gps and forgot to log.
We have given up on this one, 2nd year running we had no luck. Gps bounce didn't help! Thanks anyway!
After an amazing three weeks away exploring Far North Queensland, it was time to make our way south and back home. Obviously, we made sure to stop regularly for a short break and to stretch our legs.
We managed to locate the cache easily enough and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our way.
Thank you Three Rs for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

Today I decided to ride out to grab these caches, only 14.6km as the birds fly, it was a bit further than I expected but I made it and found the prize. Thanks three R's for the very well hidden cache
Last time we came here it was no go for us but today I returned with Ratdog and the boy. we searched the boarder and noting again. After some fun and games the cache was reviled, log signed we off again.

Down on the border,
of said parkland,
I wandered around looking for a cache
It did not take too long,
just a few minutes before I struck caching gold
TFTC !!
Olde Eagle eyes spotted it

Heading into Mackay from Mt Britton, we stopped of here to pick up a cache, to keep our streak alive. Didn't think we were going to, but we found it. Eventually, almost gave up. Thanks Three Rs
Thought I would give this one a go, only had a short time to look so unsuccessful this time, plenty more days left will try another day.
No luck searched all around GZ & 10 meters around!! Will not be back this way for a year or so! Thanks

Having found one by the same hider in the industrial area today we thought we knew what to look for here. The light at 5.30pm and the driving rain meant this was doomed from the start for failure. But thanks anyway.
Taking some time off work for School Holidays so we set off to search for a total of 7 caches today! Teen Geo made her list and this was our 6th cache off the rank today. Found the park easily enough but it was a bit of a search before we came up with the prize. Not sure whether Teen Geo had me in the wrong spot or the co-ord's are off but we found it nearby to our original search spot. TFTC. SL. TNLN.
Last day in Mackay .
Today we thought we would head out to the Kitchant Dam area.
Thanks for placing this cache Three Rs

was going to be heading out to Scrubby this afternoon
so I messaged the CO for a hint
gladly received [^]
and then I see we get a CO confirmation that it is still in play
had to stop
Track #1 "Already Gone"
no it aint - it's still there
damn ... no wonder I couldn't put my hands on it last time
the clue from the CO definitely helped
other wise I probably would have walked away with out a find today too
well camouflaged and hidden - glad to sign this one off
took nothing but the FTF
thanks for the cache - and the extra hint too

We searched and searched the 3 of us but with little to go on and far too many possible hide. We gave up and headed off
add this one to my list of Eagle DNF's
not sure what was going on
pretty good fix ... lots of potential spots
and looked for quite awhile [?]
hope I just looked right past this fella.
no tunes today
