I still haven’t had a chance to check in on this cache, and I’m currently on the other side of Australia for 2 weeks! I’m needing more time please.
Out caching with our nephew today we decided that this would be the last for the afternoon, unfortunately we were unable to locate it, despite an extensive search.
Thanks for the search KWmoo - we will be back.

We looked high, we looked low, we looked in, we looked out, but today there was no way we could work this one out!
Unfortunately this DR1.5/TR2.0 didn't want to show itself to us today! It would seem storm damage has made it impossible to find this cache - perhaps it is time for a council clean up!
Thanks for the hunt anyway KWmoo.

Tracking down the PMQ Yowies has been a WIP for some time now and I'm pleased to say that this one is the last one on the list. Don't think there is anywhere in PM that I haven't been now. Thank goodness for "Karen", so many streets and cul de sacs, one could easily get lost. TFTC
TFTC, second attempt here and found straight away with different entry to track

A couple of very friendly leeches tried to hitch a ride, but I think I avoided them successfully.
Both the cache and the log are in great shape.

Thick bush, but a nice little track - we checked the hint - then walked straight past the obvious object, got in the nice moist stuff for a bit before correcting and making a quick find, seemingly long enough to get a leech in my sock! The cache is in great condition.... TFTC!

Found today while on a little cache drive with my Dad. Had an amazing time doing all the caches around PMQ!
After making our way in via the little track, we walked towards the coords, checked around to no avail, before turning around about ready to leave and we spotted the very obvious hiding spot through a wall of bushes!

Located Boof in his/her home awaiting a smile, which happened when opening the cache.Thanks KWmoo
Found on the walk back to the car after checking 12 of the related hint possibilities.. thanks
We found it in a tree stump. Boof was really cool And had a cute little home.
Nice to see Boof safe and well in his local habitat. Another happy Port Macquarie Yowie. Thanks for a lovely series.
Went to check on Boof and his home has been destroyed. A tree has fallen and uprooted the stump he was living in. Hopefully back soon!
Found with littlemissleft and littlemisslonglegs
Very cool cache container in a great hiding spot
Thanks for the cache

Found at 8:48 AM GAFF3.
Well we weren't expecting to get into the jungle for a mere T1.5! However with care we moved about in this rainforest setting which was quite dense as we had to get very close to GZ before we could even spot the structure - which was the wrong one at first [B)]
Thanks KWmoo for bringing us to another area of PMQ that we have never visited and for the nicely camoed container.
Feedback: Any cache placed off a track and into a bush setting like this one is, needs to be a minimum of a T2.0.

Our 1st find for 2020, also earning us a souvenir.
What another delightful park, I did not know of the many parks that the Yowie has taken us to visit. The children living in the area must be very happy to play in this playground.
Loved the resident koalas.

Another cool container in this series, thanks to the CO for putting in the effort to create and hide these. Very clever.
Joint FTF with Key_Tat and Viper_101. Took a little while for the GPS to settle, but once it calmed down the location could be seen from a fair bit away. Great effort put in to this... have a fav. TFTC.
FTF with Tatt2squared and Viper_101... Looks like this will be a fun series, I liked the resident guardian... TFTC.
