Staying nearby and drive past here twice a day. Decided to stop and check it out.

First problem, clue is useless as the hoop is around 30m from GZ.

Two structures at GZ on the grass. A lamppost and a small electrical box. Nothing cache-like here

Looks like the CO has abandoned this and a few others in this area ️

Hi Coupchamp,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Looked at this one with my son, but didn’t have much luck. We did find some gems washed up near the playground from the rain.
 
28-Sep-21
My brother and I were looking for it for about 10 to 15 minutes
The clue wasn’t helpful
Also there were a lot of leaves everywhere which made it hard to find
I was a bit disappointed because I was excited

 
14-Sep-21
It's got me wtf it is. Hint is useless. Previous logs talk about no lid, magnetic etc. We searched the tree and the metal structures to no avail. And headed away disappointed.
 
14-Sep-21
This was a dnf for us. Useless hint. Read previous logs. Missing lid, magnetic etc. There was nothing to be found on gz tree or metal structures. Total disappointment.
 
12-Sep-21
Out caching with Konie. After finding a nearby cache, we headed to this one. It was quickly located and the log signed. TFTC
 
12-Sep-21
Heading to Hervey Bay today with Selva Girls and picked up caches along the way and this was one of them. Once at GZ the cache was soon in hand and once the log was signed all was returned as found.

Unfortunately we found only a magnetic lid, but nowhere a cache. May be just no luck, may be CO or a previous finder can check the cache.

A quick find today while in the area visiting friends. The geodog enjoyed this one, as she was able to have an extra few minutes sniffing all the smells at the base of GZ while I signed the log. TFTC Dad and James.

Travelled to Hervey Bay to see my oldest girls first day in prep, had a few hours to spare before and after school and I don't get to come up here very often so I thought I would clean the map up a little bit.

3 days travelling and camping led to some decent finds which was great. This was first on the trip. After driving overnight from Brisbane and camping in Tairo for a few hours, then a few hours caching around town.

Another one of this series, another one done. This one took a while, walking back and forth before eventually spying to cache and being able to retrieve it. Signed the log and off to grab a coffee.

Thanks for the cache Coupchamp, love trapsing around the area Smile

Found it at 11.10 on 17 January 2019. Find number 678 for this pirate lady yoohoo I had to use a whopping long stick to reach this thus it is not as high as it was because I couldn't get it back that high.

Met up with Fairy Mother in the Tinana State School car park for a day's caching in and around Maryborough and Hervey Bay. I had about 35 green boxes to find, not sure what the tally was at the end of the day.
Having cleaned up Maryborough with all Smile and no Sad
This was the first one of them Smile for Hervey Bay, and more importantly NO favorite point for being a micro Sad
All Razz with the cache, replaced the plastic bag to a suitable size Smile
If you want to use lunch bags, need bigger containers Big Grin

Hi there Coupchamp.

We are visiting Hervey Bay for a few days, and today we ranged further afield before logging some caches in the nearby suburban streets. This was a quick park-n-grab today.

We found 10 caches today & DNF'd 1. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found this cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Second last cache to find in the Bay this trip. Followed GPSr to area of GZ and as I was getting close as the arrow counted down the distance I spied the container. Retrieved and signed the log and placed back where found. not for the vertical challenged. I am 180 cm short and I could just reach it.
