jacko2484 I found your cache Secluded River Microhabitat on 30/9/2024, 10:30am. This is my find 7077 and find # 7 today. A quick and easy find after putting on my thinking hat on. A favourite from me for a clever cache. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
Walked past wondering what that could mean. Thought it sounded familiar, rechecked the name for the hide, and located it. Cleverly done. tftc
After a day on the NNWRT Nyssaflutterby and I decided we didnt need a rest we needed more caches. So we headed out and found a few more. Some interesting caches in this area. I loved the drive along the river, what a beautiful area. Tftc
Down to look at the distillery nearby and decided to grab these geocaches while in the area. Log signed. Tftc FP for cache design. On a caching holiday from Mackay. In the search of old caches and ones to fill DT grid spaces. Thanks for placing this cache for our enjoyment with mackay_geocaching. Have mostly had clear sunny days on our trip.*Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*
On holidays from Mackay with alphag_25 dodging the weather as much as we can. headed to Husk for a tour so grabbing the local caches while we are here. Nice and sneaky. TFTC
Found 21/1/24 while out hunting with the Kids. This one took us a good 20mins and just as we were about to give up Mr 4 amazingly found the Cache. Kids did a few swaps. TFTC
Awesome hide. I love the hide. Quite easy to find once we knew what to look for. We visited this one next to a fast rising Tweed River.
Tftc. As the description hinted that this might not be just a simple sistema under a stone, I searched for something else. So I found the cache from the first place I checked.
8 year old Nancy Drew found this one. She was super pumped to have found it. Thank you.
Great spot! Almost found it straight away, except a spider in the hiding spot threw us off.
It was a very early start this morning leaving the north of Brisbane to a attend a 7am CITO at Tweed heads. The weather was cools and a bit overcast but it was lovely way to start the morning.I quickly found a place to park the car and made my way to ground zero in high expectation of the find.The target was quickly located, log extracted and a mark made to celebrate the find.The prize was quickly returned and on my way again.A big thanks to the cache owner for making this cache available to be found.Cheers
I am on my way to Murwillumbah to cycle the Northern Rivers Rail Trail tomorrow.
I knew I would need a break from driving by now and that I would have time to find a few caches.
Thanks for the cache.

Great spot, except that it was covered in ants and the box is full of ants as well. Would not recommend finding this one as we left with ants all over us and in our clothes and shoes.
There’s an event in Murwillumbah tonight… so Chamad and I made the decision to come down and show our support for the Northern Rivers and drop some cash into the local economy…
We’ve already been through Murwillumbah, but now we’re doing another loop out and back…
Chamad has already been here, but graciously allowed me to stop and make the find… after pointing me in the direction of the cache from the comfort of Renaldo…
The COs use of urban camouflage is on full display here…
Thanks jacko2484
Good thing I brought lots of fave points down today…

After a successful FTF find in Ballina, I decided to take the scenic route home and drive up this way. Oh the memories of the old coast highway and those bollards dividing the road. I pulled up here and sat for a moment to see if there was a hint. Ok so I wondered around and around and then I spied something that just did not look right for the area. Upon further investigation I found out it was in fact the cache hide, gave me a smile. Oh Wow this survived the recent floods, well done. I signed the log and returned all as found. I am giving this a favourite point for a sneaky hide but also a proven robust hide.
Out for a play in the rain. Some new caches since I last visited and some not so new. An AL to boost the numbers too.
Nice and quiet here very early on a very cold and wet Saturday morning. Picked just the right spot to enter the jungle for a nice quick find.
Well executed indeed. A favourite point for it. [^]

Watawieh from Norfolk Island South Pacific.
This afternoons drive was through Tomewin & Tumbulgun to find some geocaches and visit Waymarks. Amazing that the cache was recently underwater and survived.

Gouger is one of the four boars that pull the Hogfather's sleigh. The other three are Rooter, Tusker and Snouter. It was most possibly Gouger who was first, as is the right of the alpha boar, to allow his bladder full release all over the floor in Crumley's. And anyone who has ever had to do with the living porcine will know that pig slurry stinks.
All good here! Fixed up the hide a little bit and added a few swaps. Happy caching!
I still get PTSD from your other cache down the road. Call me a sissy, but the nature of that one had made me suspicious of what you might have in store at this location. However, we'd just completed Locke Nash and ThotExtermin8or McAuleys Rd double and felt it was time to brave up and at least look. Pleased to say, stepping into the habitat put me at ease. The tree cover also provided excellent screening from the house boat which was anchored nearby while the occupants enjoyed lunch on their back deck.
Geosenses must have been finely tuned today as I spotted what I needed pretty much straight away and I was able to find, retrieve, and return with ease.
Jacko2484 & Benfolds7 I am in awe of your hides, feeling that you are worthy successors to AngelDust and OurLinx, two legendary cache constructors of this area.
Thank you for the cache!

This will be my 100th find, and a very worthy geocache to celebrate that milestone.
I could understand why some people thought that the cache might be damaged but they would be wrong - I am never wrong, I am Samboo Bear.
Thank you for the cache,

Spending a couple of days at Murwillumbah, today we were out caching with the Snakepitters.
Another great hide , the white ants are loving it as much as we are.
Certainly worth a FP.
Thanks Jacko2484 & Benfolds7

What a clever hide. Mr. Herbz looked at it but dismissed it whilst Mrs. Herbz was more inquisitive and revealed the sneaky hidey hole. An FP from us.
Had to venture to the area to fix one of our caches today and this green spot has been annoying me, so turned it into a smilie. Loved the cache, well done. TFTC
Found at 12:32 PM GAFF1.
That is a great cache. Entered the bush and the first thing I saw was an empty large Sistema container and thought the worst - but then I looked at the cache size and it is supposed to be a small - so no that was not the cache. Next I saw a pine post lying on the ground that looked odd - a quick look and nope nothing there. And then I just shifted a bit to my left and I immediately realised that what I was looking at was the cache - it even said so
Had it worked out and opened in a few moments and with a smile on the face I headed out to tell c-pprass all about it.
Thanks jacko2484.

Just checked this cache today and can confirm it is in perfect condition to be found - not to sure what the other log is about. Happy caching
thiS was a tRicky one as there was so many things out of place here. crab pod, lounge chair, empty sisteMa container, hardwood posts, but looking away from the water back towards the middle of the bush it all became obvious. TFTC!
Cheeky cheeky. Very well done. Great work. You got us looking for a while. Tftc.
Visiting friends at Cabarita Beach for the weekend, but today IolantheK and I ventured out for some caching.
Enjoyed the view, but liked the well disguised hide even better

T-Tech and I are visiting friends at Cabarita Beach for the weekend, and today we found a few hours to go geocaching.
I liked the drive right down along the river. AT GZ we searched for a moment, then T-Tech made the find. Nicely hidden! TFTC, Jacko2484 & Benfolds7.

Great hide, love the induenty. Worth a FP. Tftc

On our way down to Murwillumbah for the GIFF movie we called in here past the horse heads and a big event at another place,this was a great cache glad we came in,fab point.TFTC
Well done Jacko2484 & Benfolds7 on your neat hide here for this one. A nice little drive over the bridge and along the river brought us to a quiet little secluded location for a geocache hide. Waiting for the GPS to settle under the trees a glance around and a couple of look and see brought me to the right spot for the hide. Cache was found in good condition and we gladly signed the log before replacing all as found. A favourite point awarded here.
Cheers and happy caching!

Oops, forgot to log this one while on a day trip to NSW. The distillery nearby was extremely popular today. PP and I enjoyed looking around here and were mystified for a fair while before I put my caching brain into gear. Very nicely hidden and another FP from me!
We’re having an ‘adventure’ on a houseboat this week cruising the Tweed R while the little people in our family are on school holidays. What fun it’s been so far with fishing, crabbing and swimming. And today we added caching to the fun.
We moored the boat and rowed ashore in the tender, landing not too far from GZ. It didn’t take too long before we noticed ‘something’ out of place. Closer inspection revealed a cache.
All is in good nick here.
Thanks heaps for the cache jacko2484. It sure added more fun to our day.

Coming back from Ulysses Memorial lunch at Crams Farm with bebbles61 ingenious hide great find TFTC
Headed down south today to get some caches before the CITO at Miami.
Always enjoy this CO's caches. Had some muggles just upstream fishing so no talking during the quiet search. Soon we thought "what's that" and had cache in hand. Another clever hide.

OK. I PAF in the end. Very clever. First place I looked but thought couldn’t be. But it was
You two are full of surprises! After completing the cobra, I decided to check this bad boy out. Another awesome spot, with a cleverly crafted cache! You are going to take all my favourite points if you’re not careful! Didn’t take too long to find the cache. Just a minute or two to retrieve it. Once the formalities were done it was time to pop into town for a bit of lunch.
Loved you’re caches today – I hope you hide some more soon Jacko2484 and Benfolds7!

Found this one quickly before it got dark during out holiday stay in Terranora in Australia. I was on the same road before for another cache but had a filter on because of the Mystery at the Museum. Nicely done, liked it.

I was getting frustrated with trash and gps wobble, but in the end, this deserves an FP. TftC.
Been meaning to go find this cache ever since it was published but just kept putting it off - today when I knew I needed to visit the supermarket I decided to do a bit of a detour. Once at GZ I had a quick look around and soon spotted the hide. A very clever hide and a FP given. After getting back to the car drove along the road as I don't think I have ever been along here - is a no through road. Thanks Jacko2484 & Benfolds7 - looking forward to your next hide!
I knew GPS would be useless here and so I wandered around looking for the hide, lot of rubbish dumped here and I did wonder how it would go in a blood. Looked at hide once and was just about to give up when I though I better check one more time. A bit more exploration and the sneaky hide was revealed. Happy to sign this one and then on to my parents place for the evening. A favourite point awarded - TFTC
Out finding a few caches with Richmond Lad, after attending a CITO. We parked the geomobile and headed to GZ. There, we searched the obvious spots without luck. As we expanded our search, my eye kept going to something in particular. I decided to check it out. WOW!! The cache is there!! What a sneaky hide. Happily, we added our names tot he log before returning everything as found, then continuing on our way. TFTC
Down to attend a CITO event at Tweed Heads, however decided to find some caches while down this way. As we were down besiede the Tweed River , stopped to find this cache. Excellent sneaky hide. Give a FP for cache setup. TFTC
Ah, I still like the thrill of being first to find. I happened to see this last night and felt sure that it would be found by the time I was driving south this morning but no there it was. Thank you
