Today was not the day. Save for next holidays
 
04-Sep-22
There was so much rubbish, broken bottles, fishing hooks, decaying fish didn’t feel like poking around too much here.
 
31-Aug-22
Checked on this one and while it was a bit of a stretch and some bravery involved, it was still there. Moved ever so slightly to an easier approach.
 
25-Aug-22
Unfortunately did not find it. Spent a good 25mins looking for it. Maybe will get it next time.

27-Oct-21
Came for a look but a fisherman and photographer were right there so decided to come back another day Smile . Beautiful spot though
 
22-Jul-21
Got it this time
 
17-Jul-21
Was very camouflaged
 
02-Jul-21
Decided to get some exercise after being restricted indoors and in lockdown for the past few days. I had been eyeing off this small cluster of caches along a well paved path, and within walking distance of where I was located so that I could grab them whilst getting some fresh air and going for a walk! Was thankful that there was some caches in this area to relieve my boredom of not being able to travel anywhere else!

Was a great walk along the edge of the beach and out onto the break wall. Other people had the same idea and were out and about in the nice break in the weather after the rain earlier in the morning. Lots of people walking, riding or with their dogs!

Managed to collect 4 finds along the way before finishing my loop back at the accommodation.

Thanks Auswanderers for placing these caches for me to find! Beautiful area!

---

Toughest find by far! I think the D rating could be a little bit higher, top notch camoflague and lots of places a micro could be. Thanks to the hint and some recent logs I tracked it down though!
 
22-Jun-21
TFTC. Had a hunt around for a while and then I remembered the hint which helped considerably. Muggle fishermen all facing the ocean also helped
 
25-Apr-21
Got hot, got muggled, but did not find it. Will have to come back again.
 
25-Apr-21
Pretty easy find, loved the camo
 
25-Apr-21

Dnf not sure if lots of erosion in the area has claimed it , a check maybe?
 
26-Jan-21
Searched for ages and nothing...
 
19-Jan-21
No luck during a few visits and some good hints from the CO.

Either it's moved or it's too tricky for me.

Thanks anyway for sharing this beautiful spot
 
04-Dec-20
Very cool disguise
 
14-Nov-20
That’s was awesome really enjoyed that cache. I recommend an extraction tool to the next finder
 
26-Oct-20
That’s a deF fav from me! Thank you for your help by the way.
 
20-Sep-20
A lot of muggles around. Spent some time but were not able to find. Maybe next time when it will be a bit less busy here.
 
14-Sep-20
Wandered up here from the first T'rific Tally cache and realised from the FP's that I was probably going to be in for a good search.

WOW. I'm going to go with one of the previous cachers to say that I will treat all Auswanderer D-ratings with extreme suspicion from now on. A beauty hide and a terrific choice of GZ, so have a FP.

Couldnt find this anywhere.. searched for about 30 mins
 
13-Feb-20
Very unique cache
 
10-Feb-20
Well we moved further up the coast today so that we could get the caravan in for a service, so with nothing else to do we did a spot of caching. Managed to get a few along the shoreline, but still missed some.

Such a lovely wander out to GZ today. A really nice breeze was trying hard to cool us a little as the sun was unrelenting in it's efforts to heat us up. The scene was glorious though with the sun shining on the water and it was sparkling. A youngish couple were repeating their wedding vows on the sand underneath the shade of a tree and they looked very happy. Thanks for sharing this location with us by placing a cache here Auswanderers.
Cheers and happy caching!
 
17-Jan-20
After I climbed over it was a nice quick find in a gorgeous spot. TFTC

23-Sep-19
Not to be for us today.
 
08-Sep-19
The hint is slightly deceptive but a very clever hide.
 
08-Sep-19
Almost gave up, might need to lean over a little bit... no danger is evident however
 
28-Aug-19
After meeting Auswanderers at IGD event at Tweed Heads I just had to come back for another go at this one and decided it would be great for #100 TFTC
 
07-Aug-19
Great spot spent 30 mins looking still nothing leave it for another day
 
29-Jul-19
Looked everywhere, will have to come back another day during the daylight
 
27-Jul-19
Very clever hide, tftc
 
25-Jul-19
A beautiful winters day for a walk out to the point to search for this one. It took quite some time to find the cache even with the good hint provided. Very well done CO, a favorite point from me.

Beautiful spot to come to for a cache even though it did take a little while to get our hand on it. Had several groups of muggles come and go as we searched but each time we stopped and pretended to do the "taking photos" trick! We were very pleased to finally find it.
Thanks Auswanderers.
 
21-Jul-19
I loved this one. So clever

Take your time, it is too visible
 
18-Jul-19
Checked again, it is there.
 
10-Jul-19
Sadly one of two dnf logs today
Guess the sunny weather bringing people out
Could not search adequately today
We will return
 
Found it !!! After a long search and checking everything near us we found it !!! Don’t have a pen today but definitely worth finding again to also log properly !!! Considering the amount of people around we did awesome and persevered!!! Thanks for this find ... last one and favourite of the day
 
28-Jun-19
Checked after the 3 DNFs. Still happily there!
 
28-Jun-19
No good today

I looked around for a long while here; reading and re-reading the cache description and hint. With ominous clouds on the horizon, it was only me out here so I could search without interruption. However, I had to give up in the end.
Thanks anyway.

And just like that my FTF count doubles. This one is the trickiest of the three and I’m sure it will stump some. A fav point for the effort gone into it and this amazing spot.

I saw these pop up on my notifications at 10pm last night. I couldn’t make it until 11.30am today so I didn’t think they’d still have a clear log.

But here I am with 3 new FTF. Thanks for hiding these.

Now if I hadn't gone and played tourist in the other side of the headland...

I was heading home and got notifications off be caches just within my alert radius. I was only 30min from them but was busy. I want expecting them to still be available when I got around to heading off homeward.

Well at least they were still FTF when I was over the other side. When I arrived at the carpark, one was found, the others but yet. Then one by one FTF disappeared as I searched. Hahaha

This was the worst. My phone died 15m from GZ. I noticed something when I first got there but ignored it...till 20min later (thanks to being busy with muggles). Bingo! Fave point.

TFTC and well done Gurthewanderer Smile
