After a good deal of grubbing around I came up with nothing. Past logs suggest where the hide may be and what it looks like. So I am reasonably confident to report it missing. Sorry for the bad news, stuvic.
Man I’m not on a good run. Another DNF. I probably stepped over it thirty times, or touched it but find it, I did not
Nice quick one spotted straight away then a large water dragon ran out from hiding spot between my legs scared the crap outta me lol tftc Lokky1
Headed to Jindalee for an event and to collect a few easy caches.
Seems to be that time of the day when everyone is having afternoon drinks, the streets were empty in this area
Thank you for this cache stuvic

A quick detour on my way to a dinner this evening and I was very pleased to find the park unattended. [^] Zeroing in on GZ, the hiding spot became obvious and on arrival a tell tale sign made for a very quick find.
Out with the log, Iadded my name to the list, tucked everything back into the container and returned the cache as found.
Cheers stuvic.

Find #2605
Visiting my parents in my old tramping grounds, and we're off to find some local caches with TeamBarritts. We crunched around on the gigantic leaves following the GPS, then we just searched the likely spot..... after the GPS had settled it read 2m.....TFTC

Out to find some caches for the new year. A lovely little park here. Quick search and the cache was located. All is well with this cache. Signed log & replaced as found. TFTC
Down the short slope and then a crunchy walk across six months' worth of dried leaves to the likely location, and I quickly had this one in hand. I've never been to any of these little slivers of parkland, so it's nice to explore and smash a few geos at the same time. Thanks, stuvic.
A nice quiet time to wander around here today. A few muggles in the Park near by enjoying themselves.
All good with your cache.

All good with your cache.

Found it after a nice bike ride - sure that someone else was looking at the same time too
We parked not too far from GZ, and then wondered which side of the park or Creek we needed to be on. We were happy when we saw it was on the other side!
There was a lot of leaf litter at GZ, which was very crunchy under foot, however Mr Domsky made his way straight to GZ and found the container in the first place you looked. What a beautiful area. Thanks Stuvic for bringing us to yet another lovely location here in Jindalee.

In the most obvious place and well covered by the natural cover. All is good with this cache. Thanks for the hide.
Last of three quick finds on a break from work nearby. Lovely location. TFTC!
We came across your cache, stuvic, while on our way to a nearby event.
Lots of GPS bounce but soon spotted. All good.
Log signed and cache replaced at 5:39 PM on June 10, 2018. TFTC.

I used a branch to move the stuff away as I found snake skin close to the hide. I was hoping it has moved and fortunately it did. Tftc
It’s a stroll down memory lane today. My sister did ballet across the road thirty years ago
What a lovely big tree. The kids had fun climbing it after we found the cache.
Cache and contents are in great condition.
Thanks stuvic.

Another hole to fill in my Days Cached On calendar. My first choice for a cache on the way home from worked had to be aborted due to lingering muggles so came up with something closer to home. Located a likely tree and a particular location but kept on looking from the wrong angle. After numerous laps I finally spotted what I was after just as the mozzies were just about to pick me up and carry me away for dinner. TFTC
Out and about in this area for a walk and find a few caches.
Stopped nearby and walked in to this one.
GPS had me checking all the trees until it settled on the one I thought it would be hidden in anyway.
Checked around and found the cache tucked up in its hide.
SL then returned it ready for the next cacher.

(noticed the playground has been fenced off maybe for maintenance)

Good little hidey spot but at first we were in the wrong side of the creek. Still nice and dry.
Cache is still nice and dry and well hidden despite recent rain. Other comments provided good clues to determine the gx. Tftc
Found it & the turtle TB! Thanks. Just made it in time before it got crazy busy with school Mums about to pick up their children. Now I'm off to go pick up my darlings (but not at this school).

Took advantage of the nice weather and got the kids out geocaching during holidays. This cache came complete with a playground close by, which made the geokids happy. Just had to wait until a muggle walking her dog had moved on... TFTC stuvic!
I was worried about this one. Lots of work going on close to GZ. Some fairly new looking mulch too.
All was well though and a quick find here too.

Lots of comments here about being on the wrong side of the creek - but from which side did they start
Scouting out a few smilies southwest of home.
Walked straight to it!
Nice quick find, all good here.
Made our mark & replaced as found.

I am on my way to Brissy from Toowoomba to stay at a friends place tonight before going to an Event tomorrow.
AND, I have a little time to detour to find a few caches.
A quick find here as there is not many other places it could be.
Thanks for the cache.

GPS wanted me across the creek, but there was a very typical hiding place right near me so I went searching. It's darn difficult to be stealthy on crunchy leaves, but it didn't take too long to make the find. TFTC, stuvic.
Found by Mr5: yes the GPS certainly bounces here but use your GeoBrain and it's not too tricky. TFTC!
Strangely enough I had a quick look for this one some weeks ago, and started looking very close to where I found it today, but no sign of it then. With the machine telling me it was "over there" I then crossed the creek to the GPS "GZ" where there was no sign of the cache. With updated coordinates, and the experience of the previous attempt it was just a case of "it's here somewhere, but where!" until the little container showed itself. A truly quiet little park this morning, allowing plenty of time for looking around. The trees certainly do play silly games with GPS readings, but the cacher must win in the end! TFTC. stuvic.
A quick walk with the geodog. Having looked for this one at night when it was published and not being successful, I was pleased to see that this one was updated and more finds on it. It was soon found in the appropriate spot. Daylight certainly helps!
Out and about on this overcast Mothers Day with the boys in tow.
Like others before me I started on the wrong side and found zilch. Reading a few other logs I saw where I was meant to be. I didn't worry about the compass and after a logical search found the well painted camo container in a few seconds.

Had a short break from domestic duties so thought I'd grab this one and check on another for a friend who was having difficulties. At the posted co-ordinates I had a very thorough search without success. Rechecked recent logs and found a second set of co-ordinates which pointed across the other side of the gully. A short detour to the other side and bingo! Got ya. Thanks for the cache stuvic.
I didn't pick the right time to search for this one as it was pick up time at the nearby kindy and there were a few who were using the playground before heading home. Luckily the GPS was pointing me away from the activity area but not to any likely hiding spots.
I then read Teamtinda's log and using his alternate coordinates I made my way around to the new search area about 20m away from the posted coordinates.
It then only took one circuit of the likely hiding spot before I spotted the cache.
TFTC stuvic I think the coordinates should be corrected to the ones given by Teamtinda.

Back for another shot in daylight. After scratching around the same places, I looked around and saw a possibility some way off.
Around I went and soon had a cache in hand. Hats off to the FTF who did very well to find this one last night.
I attach the coords which worked for me today, but it is certainly difficult under these trees etc. TFTC where all is fine.
