Don't Bark Up The Wrong Tree! Tinana, Queensland, Australia
By Holly_101 on 28-Sep-16. Waypoint GC6TM6D

28/8/21 Find #4967
Today called for a spontaneous journey north with Fangsoki and Pprime. We decided to head towards Maryborough in search of a couple of archived caches before heading out to Tuan Forest. Along the way I checked and noticed a couple of older caches that I was particularly keen to collect as well.
We were hopeful of a find here and made our way past the barking dog - nothing to sow right the cache name I’m sure, and in to GZ. It was an easy find here tho had to be cautious of thorns. Hardest part was the lid removal - I tried first, followed by Pprime, followed by Fangsoki who told Pprime to let a man do it. After no success it came back around to me…. And I achieved the successful removal! Sorry lads!
All in great condition with this cache, including both camo and contents.
Thanks for the cache Holly_101.

Kidnapped and forcibly taken north for an afternoon of unplanned geocaching ... guess I don't really mind. Great day with 1MinnieMoo and Fangsoki. Fangsoki had done some research on likely-still-there geocaches, like this one. We wondered in and picked our way carefully around the thorns and 1MM spotted the nicely camo'd prize sitting safe and dry. Took a bit of effort to open but all good inside here. A great container.

Thanks Holly_101 for entertaining me at this location.
*{Overall find #9829}*

1MinnieMoo, Pprime, and I headed north for a random trip for the day. I had eye-spied at this cache as possibly still being there.

We parked up and made our way to GZ. 1MinnieMoo found the prize but it took some effort to get into the clever container. We soon gained access and signed the log. It was in good condition.

A great little hide in a nice area. TFTC Holly_101

No longer doing geocache

My 1,000th find in Australia!!!!!!!

1,000 caches have taken me to every state and territory in the country, and have included some challenging puzzles, a multiday trip, a 100-cache series, and even caches I've had to kayak for. It's been fun and exciting and I'm ready for 1,000 more

The container and the milestone both merit a favourite point.

Found at 12:01 PM GAFF1.
We were expecting some sort of a tree climb, or a paper bark tree, but when we started the final approach to GZ we had this strong sense of déjà vécu! We were sure we were here last year, but why didn't we do this cache? Maybe the ground was too wet at hat time?
Well today we made it to GZ and started battling through nasty vines and trip wires and there was a nice camoed cache that we were appreciative of the effort taken to disguise it.
Thanks Holly_101.

Hi there Holly_101.

We cached around Maryborough today before catching up with friends that are house sitting nearby. Our total today was 13 caches & we DNF'd 1. Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels as we continue our nomadic wanderings around Australia.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found this cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
**Dropped Trackable:** "Team AUSSIE, AUSSIE, SANDLAPPER Geocaching Road Trip 2015 Tag".

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

A planned day around Maryborough. Weather not to hot so walked a few kilometres gathering the first 6 caches, rest we were able to drive to.
All caches today were in good order except one which didn't have a container, only a wet log in a plastic bag. SLTFTC

We have set up camp at RV Homebase, Maryborough. We toured the area following the geocache trail.
A good variety of locations & caches. found.
Thanks for placing this cache Holly_101

This one is nice and dry blue tin

Nice cache, loved the camo very good hiding spot.

Tftc tnln

Very clever!

Headed here from around the corner at the nearby trad and found a pretty good access point, but due to Seff’s whimpering from the back seat I declined to take VDP through the ditch. Swellerfungus was not impressed; gruttering something about being made to walk all over Queensland… Luckily Seff is a blackbelt in tuning out Fungus’ mutterings, and he has been teaching his grasshoppers (Jez and I) his ways . Fungus earned his keep by making a nice quick find here though. Back to the car and onwards to Bundaberg to find a place to camp. TFTC

A long weekend usually leads to a well planned and executed attack by the Bromance on some unsuspecting rural township. Sadly that is not the case for this trip. Last weekend I reminded the lesser two members of the Bromance that we had still to think about where we may go for the upcoming long weekend. CrookedPete told us that he would rather set sail in the SS Minnow both gilligan and maryanne than come away with us left the door open for JeznDez. Apparently it takes two cachers to fill the spot of one CP (editors note - even with two people in the back there was never a hint of anything lost, missing or forgotten, and absolutely no stories of old forestry mills in the areas we visited). We decided only on Wednesday this week that we would once again attack the Bundaberg area and its surrounds, so the JEFF App went to work to hastily put together the semblance of a list (editors note - there was no colour in the spreadsheet, and a D/T rating that only suited SOME members of the group!).

It is funny how some cachers are so precious about their cars! I mean really why COULDN'T this one be a park and grab! haha. A bit of dodging the water to het to GZ, and a quick find of this cammoed cache container. Thanks for the cache.

Dez managed to get Victor Del Prado in along the driveway and close to GZ, but still not close enough for Swellerfungus' liking (I think he prefers just reaching out of the car door to find caches at times). Still, he was the one who discovered the well disguised cache container and added our names to the log book. We then headed off towards Bundaberg with an eye out for somewhere to set up camp for the night. TFTC

Second for the day in the area tftc

TFTC easy find, very clever, out & about with Stopalot.

Found on a morning walk with visiting geo-friends. TFTC

What a quick find

What a great cache container that sure must have taken some planning and implementation - well done indeed! Nice walk to find the cache too. We will give you a fav for this well camoed cache!

**# 17415** Found on the Qld leg of our 2017 winter escape trip.
Another perfect warm winter day for a drive around while at Maryborough.
Not many muggles around and a good quick find here.
This one was a very good hide too.
Good coords and some good camo to help it hide as well.
Thanks for the cache Holly_101,

This was awesome!

Riding along on me pushbike baby !!
I went in search of you
Yes you little cache
Nobody except the chooks noticed me !!

So while I barked up the wrong trees for a while,
I wasn't the only one cluck, clucking that I couldn't find the cache
It took a good, scrunchy, five minutes for me to finally spot the cache

Great bit of camo there !! [^]

TFTC !!

Love the camo lol

Gotcha!!! TFTC

Found Ok

6408 Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1435. Walked along the water course to gz. The camo suits the location here. A pity the log book is so small for a container of this size. SL Tnx Holly_101

Found at 11.19 hrs. Drove down to near this one. Container colour caught my eye. Very hot today so signed log and back in the car and off to the next one. Covered container a little.

Doing a caching run from the RV Home base, already had a couple under our belt, today we hoped to expand the search. Accordingly at GZ, we searched as per the clue, then Woof woof thanks we have the hide
Thanks Holly 101 for this cache.

Loving this log

Fab treasure did swaps good camp container

Thought I'd tidy up those 4 green boxes in Maryborough today to give me a clean map of again, but not to be, one eluded me, another day.
This one was a fairly easy find after dodging all the spikey vines, be careful.
All with the cache, with the size of the container, be wise to invest in a spiro note book for a log book
TFTC Holly 101

Amazing camo guys ... well done TFTC

Travelling around Australia and currently staying in Maryborough, Queensland for a few days .

So very hot here at the moment. Its airconditioned caravan or airconditioned car! So a few park n grabs today only!

The second one on my morning walk - what an unusual container. Well done. Be careful of the thorny branches - I managed to scratch myself and bled like a pig. TFTC

Returning home and visited these two new ones that have appeared since my last visit. After finding the other one just a short distance away I made my way along the grassy drain and as I got close to GZ the GPSr pointed me in one direction. Wallked past the Shetland pony and we had a chat. At GZ the chooks next dfoor also wanted to have their say.

Quick find. Co ordinates 4 meters out for me but I thought about the additional hint and looked in one direction and spied somethng that did not look right. A little bit of the colour of the continer was peeking out. I replaced the container in its spot so that no colour now shows. Watch out for the thorny vines at ground and waist level.

Signed log YOF as that is what I use on small and micro logs to save space on the paper. Log allready a little tatty. Now to walk back to the Geomobile and drive the twopointfive hours home to Nanango.

TFTC Holly_101.

Yay TFTC

*FTF* Having just got back from Europe we were happy to have a new cache to find and so close to home. We were heading to Hervey Bay with our friend who was visiting from Adelaide (Skippy) and we headed out to find this nicely hidden cache first. Thanks to Holly 101 - keep up the good work Fav point alloc.

My second FTF today
I got my Mojo back
This took longer than it really should . It was a easy find but we had a mans look which didnt work
Thanks for the cache and a good camo
