Changing water levels and ongoing park works make maintaining this cache location in an ongoing way problematic.

Found with LuLuRu14 but cache is waterlogged probably due to recent floods. TFTC
 
09-Apr-22
Found with SpectaclesOfRose. We had a lovely stroll around the dam in between rain showers and it was an easy find. I was surprised to find it so heavy, but then again it was not surprising to find it was full water, especially after all the recent weather. The waterlogged log book needs replacing.

ruzzelz Rides S3 - Cache the Caboolture Wamuran Rail Trail

The Caboolture to Wamuran Rail Trail showcases the history of the Caboolture to Kilcoy railway corridor, which has been closed since 1964, and provide a shared pathway from Caboolture to Wamuran.

A great roll out of people on a range of bike types including one or two that really could do with a bit of lube on the drive train. An early start meant the weather was cool and we avoided the rain showers until the end of the ride.

Coffee and cakes during a bike ride is a mandatory obligations and there were no objections when the local bakery in Wamuran was suggested as the first non geocache stop. A few hardy types even rose to the occasion and took a second caffeine hit on the return to Caboolture.

Thanks to the CO’s for placing caches and a big thanks to all the will riders who turned up for ruzzelz Rides S3.

PS - Production ruzzelz Rides Season 4 has been delayed due to the 2022 Flood even. Once things dry out the next episodes will be screened.

Joined a great group of cachers for a very enjoyable morning of cycling & caching along the rail trail & around Caboolture. Logs were signed as RR3 for Ruzzelz Ride 3, thanks to Russel for organising & the CO's for the hides.
After stopping for morning tea in Wamuran we headed off the rail trail on our return trip to collect these caches. Even though the hills are small around here they certainly got my heart rate up. Replaced log book as it was wet.
Thanks for the cache Miss_Direction
 
12-Feb-22
Found with the RR3 Group (Ruzzels Ride 3) today and log signed as that for ease.
We took a detour off the rail line line to pick up a few of the caches in this area.

I joined the RR3 group for a lovely morning of cycling, chatting and cache hunting.
On the return ride along the CWRT from Wamuran, we peeled off to seek out a couple of caches in this area. It’s a lovely outlook from here. I can see why it’s a favourite spot. TFTC Miss_Direction
 
12-Feb-22
Ruzzelz organised a ride along the rail trail with a few extras thrown in. Log signed as Ruzzelz Ride #3 (or just RR3). We left a replacement log as the log was too wet. Thanks for the cache

Rangeview Fishing Rock
D 2.0 T 1.5 Regular Traditional Cache

Lovely day for a 20k - 2 hour bike ride with RR3 (or Ruzzelz Ride #3). Totally amazed with how nice this bike trail is. Very well maintained and lots of users too. Equally amazing was the company, lots of fun and laughs. I fell twice. Doesn't matter, it wouldn't be a bike ride if I don't . Getting on and off, and turning left or right are not my forte . Need to ride more and adjust my seat again or maybe will get one of those e-bikes?

Thanks for the cache and taking us here Miss_Direction. Enjoyed the adventure. Slight detour on our way back. Had my second fall turning right from Alexandra Parade, lucky the 4wd didn't get a scratch either!

While wife and granddaughter were at the nearby playground, I took the path to locate this cache, very well hidden, and just a bit damp, but as there has been lots of rain lately, that is to be expected, Thanks Miss Direction

The girls and I had a work breakfast meetup at the pit stop café on Mt. Mee rd. After the event I said, girls I need one cache for the day and I have some fun ones for you to see. A little drive and I was at some caches I did yesterday. The excitement was too much and the caching bug had hit them. Let’s go and find some more we can swap at. So off we went, a search of nearby larger caches was started.

We thought we had found a cache, a regular, hmm usually some swaps in it, so off we went. We parked and the girls immediately raced over to the flying fox. I set off on a slow walk to the cache. Oh the disappointment when it turned out to be a small cache with more water than anything else.

That soon turn into fun when they raced back to the flying fox. The cache is need of some maintenance, the cache was wet, the log was mush and we were unable to sign today. Logging due to the pic I took. Thanks for bringing us here, we were happy to play in the park as an additional prize.

After the New Year Events in Kilkivan, today's caching area includes the Harry Potter and Agatha Christie Series, with hatzofff and Snickersallan in the geovehicle.

Cool park.

Staying over after the newbies events in Kilkivan to do caches in the area.

Our last for the day. Interesting how well kept some of the yards have been kept on our journey today.

Making my way back down the coast with hatzofff and RoddyC & spending a few days in the local area to do some geoart puzzles and others in between.
All hides were found relatively easy and apart from a few wet logbooks that we changed where we could, caches were in good condition.
Apologies for the generic logs CO's, thanks for placing for everyones enjoyment.

Out and about on a power trail today - targeting the Roses geoart (wahoo! highly recommended), the Potter Puzzles geoart, and the Hamilton power trail. It was a long but fantastic day with myself, Pprime (P') and mini oz_bean_counter, and the logs were signed as OP'X to reflect this. Started at 4 am with a check on the US election progress, in the car by 4.45 am and the first cache by 5.30 am. Home and dead tired 12 hours later, where wine and pizza were necessary to refuel the body before I crashed for the night. I was delighted to end the day with 124 finds (plus 5 DNFs, and revisited 2 caches) - a new daily record for me. I was really really happy to be celebrating that achievement with family and good friends.

Thanks for all the COs for their time and effort in placing and maintaining these caches. Apologies for the generic log.

An offer to head out of Brissy for an adventure and more caching today Violet the Tabby came along for the ride this weekend

Spotted the fisher peeps on the rock but swerved right to look for the cache. Easily located and then off to look at the lake. No platypus spotted today

Missed this one. On our list for try again

We used a hint still couldn't find it. Our GPS was very off on ours. We might've been looking in the wrong place. It was found recently but we couldn't find it. Oh well. Better luck next time

This one is definitely okay, I checked on it this morn when walking the dogs, feel free to message if you need a hand finding.

Yesterday I spent the day caching around Kilcoy. This morning I was taking a slow drive back to Brisbane airport finding a few caches along the way. A nice short walk from where I parked my car to where I found the cache. Nice hide here and a good sized cache. TFTC, Biggles.

Checked on this cache today and konie has done a fabulous job of hiding the cache once again. I added some swaps and cleaned out some old ones. If you come here on dusk you will see our resident platypus, tawny frog mouth family and sugar gliders. Happy cacheing

Grabbing a few caches in the area this morning and after parking nearby headed to this one. Have read the previous log by OLD L&LJ, I soon found the cache pretty easy as it could be seen from the distance.

Once the log was signed I covered it up in the same spot.

TFTC Miss_Direction Smile

Pleasant stroll in the oppressive heat today. Found the geocache scattered on the ground. I put everything back in the container and hid it under the nearby fallen tree. That seemed to be where it came from. In any case, it probably needs to be moved. The muggles will certainly return to show friends or whatever it is muggles do.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I did enjoy the location Smile. TN/LN/TFTC

Wandered back the other way from he last cache, past the muggle doing his back lawns on the ride on mower. Big enough yard that when he is up the other end I can go in to GZ and not be seen.
All good, in and found this quickly.
Cache is in really good condition. Logged and returned before a couple of lady muggles walking along the path.
