A 96 container power trail, RoddyC. What a nightmare this could be for maintenance. I don't know, but I reckon you certainly have more hidden caches than most of the folk here in SE Qld. A quick find at the Garmin's idea of GZ, and managed to add "George M." to the log. TFTC, RoddyC.

After finding a few Running Man caches in Boronia Heights this morning, I did a loop walk around Regents Park finding a number of caches along the way. I parked at the Lamberth Rd shops and walked north along the creek, then turned east and walked along to Cianthus Park before heading south back to the shops. This was a nice easy number puzzle that I had solved a while ago and it fit in nicely with my walk today. It didn't take long to find the clever hide but getting the logbook out took me quite a while. I tried a number of implements and it did not want to budge. Eventually persistence paid off and I was able to add my name to the little piece of paper. Turns out this was find #1900 so it was nice to celebrate that mini-milestone today. Thanks RoddyC!

Good fun. Teamwork with Mummabee solved this one. TFTC

Fast maths skills from Pominaus made for a quick find today.

With a few hours to spare, today, I headed to the southside to find a few caches. Next, I headed to this solved puzzle. A quick find was made. After adding my name to the log and returning everything as found, I continued on my way. TFTC

In the area doing the AL’s so came back to avenge the previous DNF. Looked for a while and was about to give up when I spotted the prize.
Would give it 5 FP’s if I could!!
Thanks RoddyC for the puzzle and the cache.
 
08-Sep-22
Over on the Southside for some more caching therapy and a visit to some friends; plus there is that excuse to continue my personal challenge. I saw there were two caches in this little area so I decided to go for a little walk. The first was the puzzle and what a great little hide, nice. I walked around a few times and then I saw my prize. Thanks for the fun here, I signed the log and replaced as found, then ventured onto the next one just down the path. Thanks for the cache and the nice container, all good with this one.

This puzzle had me spinning my wheels for ages… a moment of clarity and it fell into place…

Keeping the Premiers request to stay off the roads as much as possible I’ve combined a trip to Grand Plaza with a cache… just the one… I’m trying to be responsible…

Having read recent logs on my approach I was intrigued… despite the fallen Squiggly Gum about 10 metres away GZ was soggy but in one piece…

I’d like to claim it was my caching skills that resulted in having the cache in my hands almost immediately, but I think it was more dumb luck…

Tftc… another nicely crafted bespoke RoddyC hide…
 
22-Feb-22
Interestingly, I found this cache today on the 22 / 2 / 22!

Unexpectedly, I was back in the area again today and decided to find a couple of caches as long as time permitted. This was number one.
I solved this one only recently and after doing the maths etc, then discovered I had the correct coords in my notes, but seemingly had not tested them...?
Anyway, I wandered along to the GZ and went straight to the right spot. It's a good hide and now has some great natural camo as well, but something just grabbed me and I went with it.
Always great when that happens!
TFTC where all is fine.

Had a good look here with no luck. Thanks RoddyC for the puzzle.

On our way home and just had to stop in here for this one.
Very clever construction; love it.
Saw the cutest family of ducks with six babies while here.
Thanks for the cache RoddyC.

Out on the southside picking up a few target caches, in particular the Oxley series and Runner geoart, with lots of others grabbed along the way. Easy grab for me here.

Find #11075 @ 09:30
Thanks RoddyC for giving us a reason to visit.

Great cache RoddyC!! Thank you. Solved while waiting for my tyres to be replaced yesterday. Grabbed it on the way to work today. FP worthy.
 
18-Apr-21
Over the last couple of weeks I have been on a bit of a puzzle solving bender (all the wet weather keeping me indoors has certainly helped). Today I headed out in the bright sunshine in a valiant attempt to try and reduce my ever growing solved-but-not-found puzzle list.

The GZ coordinates quickly dialled me in to where I needed to be searching and it didn't take me long to home in on the well concealed cache container and sign my name in the logbook. TFTC

An aborted hot air balloon flight due to strong winds at Kooralbyn brought Tenkae and I here. We got invited to join the first wheelchair on board (which actually pushed through the day after.) Plan B was to look for caches which will complete Tenkae's first grid. This cache has been in my solved file for awhile and was nearby, might as well pick it up.

Thanks for the cache RoddyC. Enjoyed that one.
 
24-Sep-20
The day started as a failed hot air balloon adventure but we ended up caching instead.

Great camo at gz. Tftc
 
16-Sep-20
Our first puzzle solved. I can't believe I have walked past this cache many times without knowing it was staring at me, willing to be found.

Today in class, Miss 9 was asked to share a riddle so she used the egg one. Needless to say, that none of the other 9 year olds got it.
 
11-Jul-20
I arose very early today to cross the reopened border for a few caches but I missed breakfast. Rereading this brought on hunger pangs but finding the nicely blended hide was satisfying enough. Thanks RoddyC.
 
21-Jun-20
Solved this one a while ago finally in the area today to grab a few caches while the sun is shining. Tftc and riddle
 
22-May-20
It's remarkable what a little chilly weather does so society. At the time I arrived here this afternoon, I would normally expect a stream of muggles with or without their hounds. Not today though, it appears they were much more content sitting at home in the warmth. Great for me... Big Grin

Up to GZ, I spotted something on approach and of course I ignored that, opting to check another couple of places first. With no container in hand, I returned to act on my instincts and pulled the cache from its lair. Yep, it always happens. Red Face

I etched my name in the log, returned as found and headed for the other nearby icons.

Cheers RoddyC.

I had searched the likely hide then Team ARF looked after ten minutes and came up with the goods! Great camo! TFTC
 
14-Mar-20
On the way, today to collect a few old caches, hurray.
First had to solve or evolve this piece of prose, before we goes.
Glad the riddle was only a quick fiddle, or too!
Arrived nice and early, then the surly (ness) crept in as it took time to find the little bugger.
Helps if you keep you eyes open!! Thanks RoddyC for placing a cache at this quaint piece of corridor bush.

Out running an errand over this way, thought I would check the map to see where the nearest cache is and this was it. Somewhere in the past I had solved this one but didn't update the final coords. So with the solving already done it was a matter of driving to GZ and finding the cache. Clever hide which blends in well.

Found on 21 December 2019 12.48pm temp 35deg C. TFTC, RoddyC.

Tftc. After being unsuccessful with first guess, sneaky hide, thanks Smile

TFTF, took a bit. The first riddle is where we went wrong. Thank goodness our coordinates won't too far off. With paulkelly92

Solved a few days ago as I tend to be out here every week at the moment.
Cache was not where I expected it to be. Found without any issues.

Thank you for the puzzle and hiding this cache RoddyC

I was out collecting some interesting caches this morning and this was on the list. It has sat on my solved list since publishing. Another of the COs witty and easy puzzles to provided a counterpoint to those that are just perplexing. I parked on the main road nearby and wandered in. As the GPSr counted down, I looked to my left and spotted the cache right away. Another creatively camouflaged container.

Thanks for the cache RoddyC. This was find #3771. Please discover my trackable: MMGJ6B
 
02-Aug-18
On my return through the area from a mornings caching with geo friends I decided to grab a few extras for the day.
Had to PAF who loves maths to ensure I was on the right track with this one, too many riddles for me as I got it wrong the first time round. Neat cache and a quick find here for me and also worthy of another favorite point.

Heading home after clearing a few caches from my map and decided for one last cache as it was (almost) on the way home as I had recently solved the puzzle.

I parked on the road and took a stroll towards the search area and spotted a muggle coming towards me so I did the normal "walk past the cache and turn around and follow the muggle" trick and arrived back at the search area. I soon spotted a likely hiding spot and had the cache.

As we were in the area, I looked to see if I had any solved puzzles nearby. Bonus! I been trying something new and attempting to solve things as they come through my email and this was one of those. Went for collection and Ardom decided to freak me out that the spider sitting on the cache was a funnel web. I’m don’t think it was, I’m pretty sure he was kidding, but it gave me the weirds!
 
01-Jul-18
Solved this puzzle fairly quickly. Got to the GZ and pulled the cache out only to be attacked by what I think was a funnel-web spider. JACS was less convinced... Log signed without being killed. TFTC!

Out and about on this side of town with 1MinnieMoo and wombles creating a few new smileys for our maps.

A quick bite to eat and then this was our next stop for the day.
It didn't take long at GZ to spy the well hidden container.
Time to head for home.

Thanks for the cache RoddyC Big Grin

17/6/18 1:44 pm Find #1802
Having managed to solve this one last night, a little easier than expected, we had it on today's hit list.
So it then became our next cache of the day after stopping for a bite to eat.
Heading along, when it was time to leave the path we walked straight up to it. A nice quick find, as we headed towards the end of our caching hours here today.
Thanks for the cache RoddyC.
 
17-Jun-18
Out on the wrong side of town with nyssaflutterby and 1minniemoo hunting puzzle caches.
1mm solved this one. I liked the fence near the hide. 1mm locates the cache safe and sound.

Today I have met up with joojoo57 for a few hours. Our first job was to pick an area we could both get caches, and then set about solving the few puzzles there. This one's riddles posed no problem and the math was easily sorted, so the numbers came up first go. I like the new checker Big Grin

A short wander brought us to GZ and we made a quick find here. Nice camo. TFTC, RoddyC.
 
02-Mar-18
This was a short walk and find. Solving the puzzle was fun - thanks.
 
05-Feb-18
Solved this one easily when it was first out but no luck finding it so back today and a typical RoddyC hide and I was soon signing my name on the log. TFTC
 
30-Jan-18
I had solved this one shortly after it was published. It was the only one in the batch that made any sense to me. Wink

Still not too many people out on the paths, so no worries with hunting this one. Smile
 
16-Jan-18
Found @ 8:54am on a walk with hccatcher11415

I liked the puzzle and had it quickly solved before we headed north on our holiday. A quick find but we did like the camo. Thanks again RoddyC, a favourite for me!

First morning waking up in this beautiful area while on holidays from Canberra.

Going for an early caching walk with allrounder while the munchkins were still in bed.

allrounder solves the puzzle before we headed north, knowing this was close by to were we were staying. We were being watched by the "wildlife" as we made a quick grab and signed log.

Out with Eskies5 today to tick of a few more caches needed to meet a few challenges. Our second stop for the morning to tick off a hidden date for Eskies5. She made a nice quick find here. TFTC RoddyC

Down from Toowoomba with Kestal to tick off some requirements for different geo-goals from one side of Brisbane to the other...This one happens to be one of the three last hidden dates I need. TFTC RoddyC.

One of several that we solved shortly after publication but not in the area to chase FTF at the time.

Heading home from a couple of days down the coast & decided to grab a couple that were on the way.

Quick solve by Mr. VC & an equally quick find for Mrs. VC.

Have solved puzzle and visited GZ @ 0915 on 28/12/17. Found a nicely camo'd container, but there was no logbook inside. Awaiting CO confirmation before claiming find.
 
28-Dec-17
***FTF*** @ 0915 on 28/12/17.

When this puzzle came out, I quickly solved the second part, but I had two attempts at the first riddle before getting the right answer.

I was a little surprised other Southside FTF hounds hadn't collected this one when I got up this morning. A leisurely drive and I was soon making the short walk to GZ. A cleverly camo'd container was found, but alas no logbook was inside. I sent a message to the CO, who having viewed the photos sent, later confirmed the find and the FTF. Unfortunately I did not have a logbook with me.

Whilst I had the cache container in my hand, two police officers drove down the path in a hotted up golf buggy. Standing around suspiciously, like I was, I expected to be thoroughly questioned, but they said G'day and motored on past. Have not seen a police golf buggy before.

Many thanks RoddyC
