Finding caches around the centre of towne was proving too difficult for this non-resident !!
So I headed back to North Shore where I'd had cache finding success before
First stop here in the 'garden' [:o]
Now I wasn't so sure me decision had been a good'un
But patience was the key here !!
The longer I stood and stared,
the more I could sense where,
this cache was hiding
Sure 'nuff,
there was the little blighter,
hiding under a small plant
TFTC.
The optometrist appointment can wait [^]
Nuttin' wrong with my eyesight [:o)]

Been doing really well with these. Found very quickly even after starting at the opposite end. Tftc
Arriving at GZ had us groaning once we saw the environment but today was our lucky day. Finally got a on one of these containers. Quick sign of the log once the dogs nearby lost interest. Nice hide and TFTC
Almost walked away but one last look and there it was.. signed log and returned..TFTC
A little exercise and some more smileys had us attempting this nice trail on a bright sunny day.
We grabbed this one on the way to the start point. Many thanks for the hide burgo78

Thanks Burgo78, Omg yes needle in hay! Happy with this smile, we admit we spent quite a bit of time searching. Then dah dah found it!! log in good order
After a bit of searching, aligning with the clue, double checking of the GZ we came up with the cache. Well done on the needle in a haystack hide.
A very sneaky hide, but with some reasonably accurate coordinates and a lot of persistence, the container was eventually revealed. Many thanks Burgo for the hide.
Ventured out to this area on an afternoon whim with milihage. Eventually found a familiar container in a crowded field, signed log thanks Burgo78.
Somethings fell into place which meant a trip to town was on the cards so we got planning on what to do and which puzzles to try and solve.
Heading towards the trail across the hill this was on the way so of course we stopped. We had an idea of what to look for and it was correct. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC

Found at 1108. The hint gave me an idea what to look for but it still some minutes to find. TFTC.
The Crooked clan is in Townsville visiting the in laws for Christmas and I am cranking up the holiday exercise to help counter the excesses of the holiday season. Having knocked over the BBHT series up and over the hill, I was walking back to the western end of the trail to collect the car. Very thoughtful of the CO to put a few caches in along the way!
I knew exactly what to look for upon arrival, and surprisingly, found it pretty quickly, And I don't even know what Ozzy's band name is!
Many thanks, burgo78

Was heading back from BB to Townsville after work but thought I'd try and find a few more of these caches. Parked and walked over. Not one of these! There have been a couple of shockers in this style around Townsville over the years but luckily I found this one a lot quicker than those caches. Signed and replaced, taking the TB back to Sydney.
Thanks!
Thanks!
TFTC. This was my second attempt at this one it took us about 10 mins to find today.
This was my 190th find. It took us 4 sets of eyes and 10 mins before we were able to locate the tricky hide. Thanks for yet another great cache - I am really enjoying all the ones that you have been placing around lately! . We left a pathtag behind.
Exactly the hide type we were expecting here and in the 3rd one we checked. Guess you get lucky sometimes. Thanks.
A small detour today to pick up this cache.
As soon as got close I understood the task, fortunately the price was quickly found.
Another great NQLD winter day, around 30 deg and sunny
Thanks for the cache

Knowing DiMorgan, she will be kicking herself for missing this one.....
Parked back down the road a bit and walked back to GZ. Thought I knew what I'd be looking for and after a couple of minutes, I spied it in among all it's mates. Log signed and cache replaced before heading off for the next one.
Thanks burgo78....nicely placed.

We thought we knew what to look for but after spending some time on the rocks we finished up with a DNF.
Thanks
Thanks
YES!!! FTF!!!
After grabbing the new multi the other 2 FTF's were still up for grabs. So at 0645 I arrived at GZ and after a short search I had the prize in hand signed on the top spot and was off to grab the next.
Thanks for the new hides and the FTF hunts.
