TFTC! What a hide. If not for photos from other cachers I don't know that I would have found it. Cache is decent size and full of many swaps. Found with the Walker Boys.
Passing through on the way to a wedding. Stopped here to get my bearings. The cache was a bonus. tftc
Nice tranquil little spot. No TBs to drop or retrieve. Thanks for the cache GurTheWanderer

29/11/2023 Find #6750Wednesday Wandering Madness hasnt happened as frequently in the past few months, but today I managed to snare Crew153 for a day out with me. Luckily for me he also enjoys using his GSAK to decide where we should go. We parked in the suggested location and made our way over to the likely GZ, where a nice sized cache was quickly found. Thanks for the cache GurTheWanderer.
Out for a Wednesday Wander with 1MinnieMoo to clear a few of our mutual unfound caches in the area.By this time of the day we were almost finished the list of caches with about 20 finds completed.I let 1MM do most of the hard work while I directed her to where she uncovered the cache.TFTC GurTheWanderer
12656 Located by baby&Mrs gopher at 0945. On a drive to Ashmore and this came up on the navigator. Stopped SL Tnx GurTheWanderer. Took TB to move along.
Quick find in the wet. I've taken a bug, unfortunately I didn't bring others to drop as this wasn't a planned search. Will come back and drop one.

Looked around for a while after slipping down the path with only thongs on and walking into a few spiderwebs.
After completing the Elobana Falls hike at O'reillys retreat today we decided to see if there was any quick grab and go Caches on the way home. This TB Hotel popped up and I was very excited to finally drop off TN Bridget the Scroll. Took TB Iceland Summer 2011. Thank you
Visiting from New Zealand for a family reunion. Spent a few days at Springbrook and today are heading back to the Gold Coast collecting caches along the way. Still a bit nervous of all those spiders and reptiles so approaching with a stick before getting my fingers near the cache. Decided to stop here to drop off a couple of TBs. Cache and log all fine. Thanks for another smiley
A nice quick find, first of the day on a wet public holiday. All good here desk or the damp.

Tftc Gur the Wanderer, we had a great day out today. The scenery here is pretty special. Thanks for bringing us here.
No trackable in residence at present and we didn't have any to leave
But recommend this spot by the creek to those travelling this way that need a place to stop.

Found it after walking through a few spiderwebs and getting a few big hits but good hide. I think the local kids have added a bunch of toys. I took a sticker and Left a geocaching sticker ️
I was surprised by the amount of traffic on the side road. Good thing GZ is well hidden as they zoom by above.
Having left home much later than expected this TB Hotel was my first stop of the day… last time I was here there was construction going on and I had to bypass the cache… not today… a nice quick find…
Tftc… left Aussie Track-a-bear-CHRIS to carry on…

Easy find, the hint did nothing though, but I thought it was on the other side of the beautiful creak
This weekend, I headed south to NSW to Lismore and Casino on Saturday, followed by Springbrook National Park on the Gold Coast on Sunday, meeting different geocaching groups on both days.
Today, I joined a few other Geocachers for a hike in Springbrook National Park. We didn't end up completing our target geocache due to wet conditions, and so detoured to another nearby location. After returning back to our vehicles, I decided to use the afternoon remainder in visiting Natural Bridge, and then find a few geocaches on the road back to Nerang, before then heading home.
I figured that a TB hotel is always a nice one to make a stop at, but alas, not many TBs in here today due to this geocache's recent (and sad) replacement. Upon opening the logbook, I noted that karicka had also found this earlier today too - two great minds think alike? The cache container and logbook were in good shape. I dropped a TB in here, and picked up an Aussie Liohona pathtag. Thanks GURtheWanderer for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

The heckled and indeed it was missing. Have replaced the container. This one is back in play
Wow, three for three fails so far. At what point do we give up caching for the day...?! Searched around for a while, figured it shouldn't be too hard to find. If its still there we'll have to try again another day...
I found this scattered over 10metres. No trackables in sight. Some local kids have found it in their playspace.
This cache needs a new hide location. Local kids have discovered it more than once and now trackables are missing. I found it and its contents strewn from carpark to barbed wire fence. This is a section of area the kids frequent before and after school.
All seems to be in order now. Please revise well... it’s not a through area at all.
On arrival at GZ cache was open on the ground with all the contents spilled over the ground. Have left 2 TBs who have been stuck in NSW for far too long! Container packed back up and placed in its hidey hole. TFTC
nice little work down to find an abundance of little gifts in the hidden container! good hide and nice location!
Found, just off the road slight walk from park. Great cache for kids... have placed the following swag for others to swap out. Tracker taken, will be taken on our next holiday
Out finding a few caches with grannysmith1947. This was the first cache of the morning. I parked the geomobile and we bushbashed to GZ. there, grannysmith1947 made short work of the find. We added our names to the log and I left a few travel bugs to continue their journey. TFTC
TFTC smile 6778 out and about with Selvia Girls and miss Millie geo dog had a great day
Thank you, GurTheWanderer, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Came to check on this one today. All good with the cache but someone took a TB and didn't log it properly. Please remember to log all TBs correctly.
Was a bit of a bush dig but we found it! We found 1 trackable in here however left it in place. Swapped out some swag though
Neat hide. I have to circumnavigate first to find it just where I started.
TFTC GurTheWanderer. Thanks for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Found with AF BEE while on a geocaching vacation. Thanks for placing this cache.
OCW GeoWench78 and our son and daughter-in-law on this rainy day...nice container and hide...exchanged 3 trackables...TFTC!
Check - all OK. TB drop - I put three in. They came from various parts of Victoria. Also retrieved one TB to take on further travels. Plenty of swaps in this kid friendly cache too....
Quick find heading back up to Tamborine after a day trip through Canungra and Beechmont. Well decorated cache. Left a TB from Townsville. Thanks for this cache.

On Vacation from the UK. Passed this cache many times on my cycle ride up to Lower Beechmont, thought I would stop today, nice easy find. Took the trackable, I will place in my own cache back home when I return in a few weeks. TFTC
After a great morning on the water I figured a few more on the way home should be in order. I soon spotted my target, signed in and grabbed one TB. The monkey one of course.
Thanx again GTW

Tempted to take a TB but left the two that are here. Thanks for this one. All is good here
Out and about with the kids on Fathers Day and decided to stop in and look at the Natural Arch. Lots of people here today! Afterwards we grabbed a few caches on our way to Beaudesert. Saw that this was a Gur cache, so wanted to call in and find it. Awesome container! We loved this one! After the formalities were performed, we took a couple of TBs to move them onwards. The kids love TBs. Thanks for a great cache, Gur!
was looking for a near by cache pulled over here to see if I was heading in the right direction. though this would be a good spot flr a cache. after a quick check one 33 meters away. a quick look round had cache in hand. better hurry as darkness is among us. tftc
Visited this one this morning. Exchanged a couple of trakkas that need to move and added to the booty. Was a little exposed but not many people would be down here. Soon fixed that up and tidied up inside. Happy finding.
Heading home via Beaudesert and looking for the new cache hides on the way.
After a bit of stumbling around the undergrowth we finally spotted the hide. Noticed the 2 TBs inside we ones I had in my possession for a while - hope they get moved soon.
Thanks Gur for the cache.

Nearly did me in but found after a bit of stumbling around and misinterpreting the hint. Although not without a war wound as a stick jumped out and scraped my knee. TFTC
I needed to drop off some Tb's that I picked up in Canberra so decided the closest hotel was a good place for them. Thanks Gur.
