The Sign Mount Ommaney, Queensland, Australia
By stuvic on 12-Jun-16. Waypoint GC6KJE1

Due to to going missing a lot I have decided to achieve this cache

Today on this sunny and hot day, my solo geocaching expedition took me to the area of Jindalee and Sinnamon Park. I began my day at Mount Ommaney Bushland Reserve, which was a pretty nice walk along Brisbane River. I then made my way around Westlake and then Riverhills, completing *Parks of Centenary* Adventure Lab. After grabbing a late bakery lunch, I made a loop back towards Mount Ommaney and Sinnamon Park, where I completed the *Sinnamon Park Historical Tour* Adventure Lab. I closed out my day making a stop at Rocks Riverside Park, where the *Industrial Disease* Wherigo allowed me to have a walk around that area.

After arriving and parking nearby, I took a search at GZ at multiple locations. It felt like I had a pretty decent search across all possible levels, so I'm not sure if this cache is missing, so I will watch and see. Thanks anyway stuvic for the cache placement.

That was fun trying to figure out which level. I so parked on the wrong one. Went up and down all the stairs trying to find this one. I think the owner enjoys reading cachers frustrations finding which level. Great hide. TFTC. Find #409

I’ve been here before but didn’t find it.. came back after seeing it’d been found since my last Mt Om visit.
Surprised myself when I saw it, big stretch and done! TFTC

Finally found it Spotted by Miss 10, I'll admit. Seems we weren't originally high enough. TFTC

I will admit I spent some time on an incorrect level... it was my second choice that saw me have to wait out muggles sitting in their cars... once I had GZ to myself I walked over to make a quick find... tftc....

Out for an afternoon hunt with Caveman9614 and Mystawberry.
Carpark nice and quiet on a Sunday afternoon, and lucky because it took us a bit of time to find it. TFTC.
10th of 16 today.

Open up your eyes

After a while of looking around gensies soon had the cache in hand. Cache in good knick! Out with gensies and mystawberry. TFTC!

Happily surprised to see this cache so close when out and about at Mt Ommaney. Pretty quiet carpark at this time so could have a good look around. TFTC!

Had a few minutes in the morning and this one was on the way to work. Parked car nearby and spotted cache as i headed into shopping centre. Once finished there i returned and decided to pop the bonnet to a) provide some convenient cover, and b) to work out what has been rattling from our large western Qld sojourn. Found the air intake has lost a screw, and that front headlight is good place to sign a log. As i was signing spotted someone approaching, still not sure if it was a muggle good samaritan or previous finder. If it was the latter, please message me, you caught me unawares. When the company had gone. Cache was returned to its safe spot. Thanks for the cache stuvic

We got back to the car and geokid randomly decided to check for nearby caches. We discovered one super close to the car and while searching for the cach, Stuvic happened upon us! It was nice to meet you and cheers for helping us locate

Looked and looked being short apparently is a disadvantage

So we finally found I've left a little coffee suprise for at McDonald's for the next person who find it's

Awesome!! TFTC!! Found with SJHAYMAN.

Great find with Courtz145! Took a few goes to get the nav to settle on one location but eventually got there. A little trouble for those of us vertically challenged...

This time I spotted it as I drove up. Thanks for replacing and thanks for the cache

After checking this one out the cache was gone I have replaced it it ready to go

Don’t worry. He may have gotten away this time but I know how to wait.

Out caching with CaptainVimes while the geo boy played Minecraft Earth. Checked all three levels and couldn’t find it even with the spoiler photo

I really like this hide. I had the dog in the car after our afternoon walk when we stopped by. The dog must have thought I was an idiot stopping the car 3 times before we departed. You don't get much opportunity for a hide like this and I think you've made the best of it, stuvic.
TFTC!

TFTC!! took me a while to find it but reading the activity and the hint helped! Great spot. Couldn’t sign because I forgot my pen!

This was an easier find than expected.
Fairly quiet at GZ.
Signed the log with a blunt pencil as my pen had broken down.
Thank you for placing this geocache stuvic

TftC love the music and it was a big clue. Still in tact. Appreciate the hidden cache.

Walked right past this one a few times before making the discovery. Made it here I time before the muggles took over. Tftc

My GPS goes a bit haywire in the undercover car park. I'll try again another time.

After reading the hint we wondered how high ‘not down low’ meant.
We tried various levels and finally found it. Very good.
Thanks for the fun challenge here stuvic. All good here.

Found after searching a while on today's bicycle tour.

Georode

Another super quick find today. Thank you CO for placing g all is good with cache

Visit this centre regularly and were able to look for this cache tonight. A quick search and we had soon located the cache. Signed log & replaced. TFTC

Was in the wrong location.. then I read past logs & it lead me to a new location. I was able to hop up & get a quick find. Signed log & returned TFTC

Find #2631
I DNFd this in 2017 - and I'm damned sure it wasn't where I found it today..... my guess is cache creep has it wandering about the structure a little. It was pretty exposed today, literally visible from across the carpark, I tucked it away less than a foot from where I found it. Cool hide in a spot I've been to a lot over the years.... in fact I remember playing tennis against the back wall of the shops here as a teenager, of course now there is a triple level carpark on the spot! TFTC

Found whilst going to the shops for stuff to make pizza! my Dad lee737's log has the info.

### ***TFTC!!!*** ###

Nice quick find here. TFTC!

Great hide!! Added to my Fitbit floors for the day!

First cache for 2019. Happy New Year!! TFTC

The carpark was not too busy today when I arrived so I parked right in front (or is that in back?) of the sign and made a quick find. Luckily I must have fluked the correct level. I hope the scratchies are lucky too. Signed the log (or is that logged the sign?) and replaced the container. TFTC, stuvic

Found it but, being vertically challenged, couldn't reach it so here is photo proof, which I hope isn't too much of a spoiler! Nice description and hide. Never would have spotted it otherwise!

Clue in the description helped once I knew I was in the vicinity. TFTC!

Took a little bit to find but once red the clue properly it helped. Definitely not down low TFTC.

Come early as too many muggles shopping !! Easy find !!

haha parked on the wrong level and had to use the stairs. tftc

Had to wait for the lady parked right in front of it to move, but then a nice quick grab.
TFTC

Out to pick up a few solved puzzles and others today, this was next on the list.
Searched all levels, looked through previous logs, still couldn't locate this one. Ended up PAF who put us straight!!! How did we miss that? GPS was getting us to look at the other end. Easy find once we knew where to look.
All good with this cache.
Found 5 May 2018, TFTC stuvic

TFTC
Easy find, but the muggles going about there Routine makes it hard to sign.
Logged signed
All OK

I really like this hide. I must have driven past this cache a thousand times without noticing it. Can't believe it doesn't have an FP yet, so I'm giving it one of mine. TFTC!

Took me a while. Three-dimensional thinking. TFTC.

Scouting out a few smilies southwest of home.

When looking from the right angle this was an easy find.
Nicely tucked away.
Quick find.
Retrieved TB.

Made our mark & replaced as found.
TFTC

Searched each level came up to day light and found quick thanks for the cache

0630 this morning.... no muggles, gave it a good go.... no luck.

Muggle central on closing time, will come back another time.

I stopped the car near the entrance and considered which level I would place a cache here.

I then parked on my choice of levels and hopped out of the car and the GPS was telling me that the cache should be at the other end. There was another car parked close to the search spot but while I was having a preliminary search the car owner came and drove it away.

This left me to my Pat Malone in the area but it also left me exposed to the gaze of anyone further away.

I bit the bullet and started to search without any luck. I checked the other levels from this spot but couldn't spot it from this location and decided that I would drive to a different level. As I hopped into the car I looked straight ahead and spotted something that looked interesting. I hopped back out of the car and eagerly reached out and removed the cache.

That was fortuitous. TFTC stuvic

Tftc. nice one. Not for the vertically challenged

Once we located the right level we had it hand quickly, thankfully it was a quiet afternoon in the car park. TFTC!

TFTC. Nice quick find. Surprised there were not more muggles.

I was very close by today to mow my mother in law's grass after work. I stopped here quickly before I got started. I parked in the wrong spot and went to the wrong spot first. Once I changed locations I quickly spotted the container and had the log signed. TFTC

First looked for this mid year last. As I shop here occasionally I did for a while wandered over to the area and have a quick poke around. Sort of gave up a while back. Read some recent logs and thought it odd that I've had so much trouble when others could spot it from their car? So today I called back and bingo, there it is, could see it from my car. I feel there may have been some cache creep possibly as I'm quite sure I have checked this area several times before? But today it was quite obvious. Or maybe some serious cache blindness previously. Anyway happy to cross it off the list. Thanks stuvic for all the previous hunts and today.

TFTC. Took me too long, checked first level then second, then... yay

Out caching with Remsjw, Bennyboppers and Misssusan79. Bennyboppers and myself hadn't found this one. We could see it from the car so it was a quick find. As we were about to leave the same security men drove past and looked at us. Hmmm I wonder if they know about these caches??!!
TFTC!

Found with mmance101 out with tough mothers today

Out nice and early this morning on the geocycle.

Quiet enough that I was very naughty and rode up and down the ramps to hunt for this one. [:o)] I was expecting to get busted by security, but they seemed to be busy on the other side of the complex rounding up errant trolleys.

Cache located after short search.

TFTC grabbed while out Xmas shopping

TFTC! Quick easy find today Totally hidden in plain sight. Love it lol

Found while staying across the road on a work trip. TFTC

TFTC... 12/12. Eventually spotted it. Was careful putting it back.

A day out Xmas shopping with the geo kid and thought we'd give this one a crack. Both stood there looking and both knew exactly where to start and that's not at the Ace of Base! TFTC

Tossed a coin as to the level to start searching on. Of course I once again substantiated why I don't go anywhere near the casinos, as I inevitably chose wrong and wasted time before moving to the correct level and soon had the cache to hand. TFTC

Relogging this under individual account, previously a member of Gaz'n'Kab account.

Previously logged under a team account. Re-logging with my individual account.

With nothing planned for the day, it was time to jump in the car and go grab a few caches for the day. This cache was number 2 for the day, and was a quick find after a short search. I added my name to the logbook, and rehid the cache before heading off to grab a few more for the day [^]

TFTC stuvic

I am loving finishing early on Fridays! This afternoon, after work, I met up with Mr and Mrs RoddyC to find a few caches. We had a bit of an idea as to which level to search, so made our way there first. Luckily for us, we were right. After adding our names to the logbook, we rid the cache and continued on our way. TFTC

Have been trying to get to this for some time. Yes once you have levelled yourself not too hard. TFTC!!

Friday afternoon geocaching with Selva Girls to search out some fun. That we did - and with a vice variety of geocaches of all sizes except a large (but that would be unusual in suburbia!)

We saw the sign and it opened up our mouths We saw the sign
Life is demeaning without geocaching
WeI saw the sign and it opened up our mouths We saw the sign
We really did drag you up to get into the light where you belong
We know where you belong!

Log signed & replaced again. Found at 5.30pm on 4th November, 2016. TFTC

Have been trying to get this for some time. Yes once you have levelled yourself not too hard. TFTC!

Note: This was found by Neversaydi on the above. NeverSayDi & E(: are combining accounts and are now TeamDIEL just consolidating. Thanks.

Today I am heading into Brisbane to stay with friends for a few days. ... to go geocaching.
But I have all day to get there as it is a week day and they are at work.
So I have detoured all over the place to find quite a few geocaches.
A quick find, once at the right level.
Thanks for the cache.

Found on 3rd attempt!!! This one was too high to reach had to come back with geohubby - TFTC

This one has been replaced a little higher than before to stop the crows removing it

Has this been replaced yet as DNF

IolantheK volunteered to play guide and chauffeur for me today

This was the easiest fin of the day as the container was in plain sight on the ground. Not sure where it should be (certainly not where we fount it as it was a magnetic container) we put it behind a nearby post. TFTC

Out and about for a few hours today with Ankakeca

After meeting up at Kenmore we headed to Jindalee to collect a couple I had missed recently. As we entered the parking area, Ankakeca pointed to something on the ground, and said is that it?!?!??! Oh surely not??? Alas, it was. We signed up then decided to leave the cache on the nearby post. Happy to send the CO a photo if needed. TFTC, stuvic.

Heading south on a solo run today.

I had a bit of a look around, but there were too many muggles, and a read of recent logs confused me so I left.

I have a sneaky suspicion that the container is now where it is supposed to be... I arrived at GZ and initially scanned the wrong sign and on the wrong level... Hmm, nothing...

After ruling out a almost the entire spot, I touched base with a previous finder to ensure I was in the right location... Err, nope, you need to be on another level... With that corrected, my hunt recommenced but I still had no container in hand. Grr, it can;t be that hard, the last log suggested it stuck out like the proverbial... [?]

I scanned the area one more time, then spotted the container on the level I started at, but not where my PAF suggested they found it. So, back to the initial altitude, I pulled the cache from its hiding spot, etched my name in the log then dropped it back.

Happy to have it as a smiley, maybe a CO visit to this one would be handy, to make sure it is still where it was intended to be.

Cheers stuvic.

After last log we went had a look only to find that the cache had major creep did some matiance on the cache and returned it to the location we first put it

Last time spent a good 30minutes looking and nothing. Today not even looking just leaving the shops and bam the little black tin was standing out like dogs b**ls. Quick sign and placed back tftc

Another long day at work and time to find a cache in the dark. I knew that this would be a goer as I also needed to get some supplies from Coles! Up down, across, along, a feel here and there. Finally had to as for some help and as I was in mid flow - there it was! How did I miss that with all my tooing and frooing. Ah well. another one Signed!! TFTC stuvic

Sign is definitely not going anywhere! A bit of a reach for me though!

Nice hide. A few muggles but we used our kids as cover tftc

Out with lisylou the sign is very unstable

Cant find bugger

Didn't really look actually. Way too busy today I cast an eye over the GZ but was unable to spot it so had to let this one go as there was lots of traffic.

23:58 with Tinda ltf

One more target left and this one took as long as several of the others put together. We went up, down and in the middle but despite apparently scouring every surface, couldn't locate it. It is ironic that I finally grabbed it at a minute to midnight as we were just about to call a DNF. I must have missed it at least once by THAT much. Perhaps it's easier in daylight or when not worried about security guards arriving to see what we were doing.
*FTF* at 23.59: TFTC and fun series which made for a good end to the day.

*FTF* with TeamTinda
23:58 14 June 2016

Last cache for the evening and pulling up near GZ it was pretty obvious where the cache was. Uhm yep just on that three story high sign... somewhere... somewhere... somewhere....

We looked high and low and middle and left and right and were just about to decide that the FTDNF would be ours. So one last check of the obvious spots and Tinda managed to put his hand on the cache. Well I'm sure we both checked there at least twice. Maybe it was the dark, or maybe a little bit of fatigue, but yes a big case of muggle vision for this one.

All good in the end though and then it was back home to my slippers and cocoa.

Thanks for the fun caches guys!
