Disappointed we couldn't find it. The trees have had a trim and the garden has had a tidy up. Hopefully it hasn't been removed with the trimmings.

06-Apr-23
Lots of muggles around when we got there so went and did a few of the others before coming back. Took us a while to find this one. We were looking too high. So don’t “look up” too far. Love this creative type caches. We didn’t have tweezers and almost gave up on trying to get the log out before Miss 9 came up with a clever idea that worked. So signed, sealed and replaced to it’s location. TFTC.
 
06-Jan-23
Fun one

Smart location.. took me a little while to find

This one took a little searching, both literally but also through the comments. Nice little cache, unfortunately couldn't get the log out (forgot the tweezers!), so attached a photo. TFTC

Stopped at the park on the way to our campground. With only a short amount of time to go for a walk and find some caches we quickly walked and grabbed the s on first. Then it was back to this one and peering in i saw something that fitted the surroundings but didn't at the same time.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache

Found it…Pretty obvious once you actually look but one of the hints definitely helped

Another lovely area as the caches guide us around. Not what we were initially thinking as we approached GZ, but we were able to make a quick find. No one about yet!

We left Cairns yesterday and although we were hoping to stay at Lake Tinaroo, we ended up at Tolga because all the caravan parks we contacted were booked out. It’s a shame, because although Tolga is nice, it’s not the same as camping here on the water. We enjoyed doing the “geo tour” of the lake, finding caches and checking out the views as we went. A nice variety of hides in some lovely spots kept us interested and busy for the day.
TFTC and thanks to all the CO’S for developing and maintaining the caches in this beautiful spot. Your efforts are appreciated.

Found a clearly marked geocache with log inside - but not sure whether this was the original hide, as doesn’t fit any of previous logs or the clue.
 
19-Aug-21
Look up, then down all good
 
16-Aug-21
Found what lovely lake
 
14-Aug-21
Mr TMR smoothly grabbed this cache while Mrs TMR childishly played on the swing nearby. Thanks to an overcast, drizzly day there weren't many muggles around.

08-Aug-21
Found the bits of the butterfly
 
08-Aug-21
Found the butterfly underneath a tree but couldn’t find the log book
 
18-Jul-21
Thank you for replacing Bruce and Liz for our amusement. Taking another walk by the lake again this evening. It is lovely, a cache worths more
 
07-Jul-21
Put out a temporary hide till owners can check thanks
 
05-Jul-21
No muggles around so had a really good search for this . Found a butterfly wing but no cache. Maybe gone??? Thanks anyway.
 
02-Jul-21
Capsule missing - original wing found - needs attention
 
29-Apr-21
Couldn’t find between showers of rain.
 
25-Apr-21
It doesn’t feel great to leave this one behind as I don’t get here that often. I found the tree, but the weather and mini beasts were deterring.
 
29-Jan-21
Was slightly difficult to find but after waiting for the mugglers to go away, we eventually found it

The butterfly has flown away, but the cache is still there! Quick find, highly populated area even in dodgy weather! TFTC
