Temporarily taking this one offline till I get a chance to check on it. Hopefully this will occur in the next couple of weeks.

Another one on our walk along the river. Did not read the description very well and it was only when I found the container that I realised I did not have a TOTT with me so I improvised. Appended my YOF sideways along the side of the log as the log sheet is definitely really full to overfull and does need to be replaced. TFTC powellbruce

Sneak, yes. But needs a new log. Thanks

Very good.
Found a small spot to sign our name.
Thanks for the cache.

1st cache on this trip to OZ and new since last visit. Log sheet is full.

Having a coffee break while driving north. Always time for a cache. Lovely spot here. Will come back and do a few more on the river.

Awesome hide

A tricky hide but it did not fool me. Muggled by a little boy who called out "What is she doing". I had replaced the cache before his parents rounded the bend.

Staying in Gympie for a work course, and managed to leave early enough to fit in a few previously unfound caches along the way. Went for a walk along the river, it's a gorgeous spot. It was rather busy with dog walkers even in the hot windy middle part of the day. Managed to find all the hides after a short search.

Found Ok

Today I met up with csnmasn and we headed north out of Cooroy to grab a cache or two and then continue on to Gympie for a brew. As we were nearing our destination I mentioned that there were a few down along the river and my offsider asked who put them there;. I checked the description and told him who the perpetrator was and he got all excited and said, "we really can't leave without grabbing them, can we?"

So we were soon parking near GZ and without much ado managed to find the cache.

Once the log was signed all was returned as found.

We're new to geocaching and we loved this find! We found all the other caches along the river walk over the school holidays, but left this one until our log roller arrived in the mail. We were so excited to use our log roller for the first time! Thank you

This is the last of the caches in the series for me to get.

Found after a short search.

Find #2281

Very clever! Bit of a head scratcher till we found it! TFTC

Had the opportunity to go caching with Wazza9 and NannaNel and took it. We had been wanting to do the river walk series for a while plus others around the hinterland of Gympie. Such pretty country side. We enjoyed our day of caching. Thanks to PB1973 for hiding this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

TFTC,

A big day for me, 1-38 for the day. I joined with Nana nel & Liz and Bruce today to start my caching experience in this area.

Bruce found this one.

A great day spent with great people talking, walking, driving and looking into spots many people would not see.

Sharing a days caching with Liz and Bruce and wazza9, quick find, signed log and replaced. Thanks to PB1973.

So before setting off for me walk,

Ooh !! A good hide,

TFTC !!

Greetings from Switzerland.

That is awesome

Having a fun adventure

Managed to find it easy enough. But beware, the nearby business is really rude about how people park near this cache. We tried to get out of the way but that apparently wasn't good enough. Your best bet is to have a 4wd and drive right down near the track

We spent the night in Gympie on the way back from Bundaberg and took a stroll along the River Walk.

After waiting at the netball clubhouse for a shower to finish, I left my wife to head to Hungry Jacks to dry out while I headed to this cache and then walk back to the start to retrieve our car and then pick her up.

I found the cache easily and then had trouble opening it. A couple of hard taps on something hard was enough to loosen it.

Tricky one TFTF

Out geocaching with spike. 1st find for the day. TFTC.

Out for a walk and decided to look for the caches along the River Walk. TFTC

21/12/18 317pm Found it TFTC SL

The one I thought I was going to have the most trouble with stealth ended up being the least trouble. TFTC

Pulled up near the river to grab the couple of caches along the walk that we missed on our last visit. Just like last time, it started to rain when we arrived! Luckily, the rain was shortlived and having a good idea of where the cache might be, I headed straight to gz.
A quick bend and grab, I had the cache in hand. I have one in a similar spot and we have made a few of these same containers too. It took a bit of coaxing to retrieve the log - needed the help of some fine foliage.

Hi there PB1973.

We are currently staying at Standown Park, Standown Park. It was originally set up as a Veterans Retreat for ‘their mates and later opened to the public to enjoy. Over the years it has grown to become a "home away from home" for many Veterans of all ages and all conflicts plus their families.

Today's venture had us heading in to Gympie to bag a few caches. As today is Remembrance day, we just had to finish the day with "Remember".

>They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old;
>Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn;
>At the going down of the sun, and in the morning
>We will remember them.

All up we found 13 caches & DNF'd 0. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places while we meander around Australia.

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

Regards

Ian & Penny.

TFTC though it had “bolted” but we were in luck!

Tftc still no pen sorry

Clever hide. TCTF.

Stopped before the storm hit TFTC

Finally doing this walk. Find #1

Geokids couldn't see this one but with some better sleuthing it was a quick find.

TFTC

Visiting from down South, I went out with my mate Madwizzard to locate a few caches around his superb area. This was one of them, and we enjoyed the walk along the river bank. tftc.

What a very clever hide but you didn't fool us cause we walked straight up to the cache.
Crustyvarmint found it first and then shared the find.
TFTC SL

DNF GPS all over the place

We have set up camp at Chatsworth Park. We then visited the town area finding caches listed since we were last here.
A good variety of locations & caches found.
Tricky little hide the terrain rating had us looking in a different location originally.
Thanks for placing this cache powellbruce

Another easy find along Mick Curran’s walking trail! TFTC

What a good hide. This may help find No.1 thanks

Last one today.
No muggles around at the time of searching.
Geopartner went back to get the geomobile and I came on to this one.
A nice quick search and find.
Signed the log and returned to where I found it.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks powellbruce All good with this cache

There were a few more muggles around at this point so wasn't as thorough as I would have liked so I'll be back.

Parked up at this end of the River walk and soon had this one in hand. TFTC powellbruce

This is my first find of the river walk looking forward to the others along this way. TFTC

Spotted these while at the Widgee event, as I normally have a local map of stars or
Sunday morning seems a good time to have a go, Jim (jfindit) joined me for the trip into town, picked up some fuel and supplies while in town.
I thought I knew the walk, but Gympie Regional Council have done a great job on upgrading the whole river bank.

All with the cache

Quick trip into Gympie this morning with Sweet & Sour for some fuel and supplies, Fantastic walk along the river thanks for bringing us here,

Thanks for the cache and the and series

**FTF** LOG to follow.

Woohoo FTF! While camped at the Widgee event, geohubby WallabyTim and I had to duck away late that night to where my Dad was at a nearby campsite. With too much energy to head to bed, we decided on a late night run to Gympie for some FTF's. Thinking the riverwalk was going to be a well-lit boardwalk style, I was surprised when Tim parked the car in a pitch black carpark and started to get ready to go. I was NOT HAPPY at all, thinking we were going to get mugged, but with Tim is his big hi-vis winter jacket, anyone up-to-no-good probably would have thought we were police or security on patrol and gone in the other direction (well that's what I kept telling myself anyway). Armed with trusty little LED pen light torches from Supercheap Auto and four layers of clothing to keep warm, we set off. This was definitely not what I had in mind. I soon perked up though when we had the cache and a blank log in hand! Yay, now I was excited to keep going... TFTC
