Surprising nice little park. Well guarded. Thanks.

Thanks for bringing us here. A nice easy find. I didn’t open the app to find it and therefore nearly forgot to digitally log. Eva Street has certainly changed. A new range of shops. Great art work.

Nice quick find here. The hint is no longer quite correct.

This cache is nearby and I’ve been saving it for a day I needed to find a cache with little time. And today was that day; I decided to try a month long streak this January since it’s usually a slow month at work. With family visiting, continuing was obviously going to be tricky. Oh well, I pulled up the map and found this one.

A quick find but absolutely not obvious to any muggles! Tftc!

Be careful opening the door here - lots of drivers speeding down this road!
 
09-Jan-23
Nice little cache - clue made it a bit to obvious
Tftc though

I've been visiting my Dad for Xmas and it was time to stretch my legs. I took on this cache and artwork on the way. Thanks for drawing my attention to the eagle.

I love finding street art in slightly hidden away places like this so thanks for bringing us here. The hint helped narrow down the options and we soon had the cache in hand. Thanks chasingadventures

Lucky DisSister was here with me as cache blindness would’ve caused a DNF. Phew!

This afternoon, I parked on the southern side of the CBD to catch up with karicka for a walk in Whites Hill Reserve. After then going for a drive with karicka, we departed ways and I headed west through Holland Park, Annerley and Dutton Park, to then attend an orienteering Night Nav West End activity.

Cool artwork! A really nice spot with the eagle! After admiring the art, my attention turned to this cache, and thankfully it was a quick find due to the hint. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks chasingadventures for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Checking on my caches after the bad floods recently in Brisbane. This cache was high and dry but there was a damp log so time for a new cache and new log ️. The tree cover makes coords a bit sketchy but I’ll update when I get home and with an expanded hint. Happy caching !!

Tftc and showing us this great art. Cache & log a little damp but still able to sign.

Today my wife, daughter and I were caching around Coorparoo and Holland Park with no real goal in mind. We were just out enjoying the sunshine and public holiday (even though there was no sunshine).

We parked at the back of the park and after kicking around a few rocks Mrs Woodyrothwell came up with the goods. I drove passed the cafe on the way out and started wishing I had stopped in for a coffee.

Later in the day we tasked our daughter with finding an establishment for lunch that suited her culinary requirements. She picked a spot and we navigated our way back only to realise she had picked the cafe right next to this cache. This time I parked about 5 metres away from it and finally got that coffee at Maude’s I had been craving. tftc

After looking at the wall for a while I checked the map and saw I was close to the coordinates, a quick reposition and I had the cache in hand in no time. All signed and replaced. Cache is good. TFTC chasingadventures!

An early mark from work and a couple of hours to kill before school pickup sees me driving over to the Southside to finish off the mimosa series of caches and a few as I passed by.

The mimosa series was of particular interest as it fills in some older caches that I have been targeting. It was a great series and one that kept me entertained and took me to a lot of different areas and unusual spots, thank you.

With the series finished I searched to see what else was around the area. With time ticking away I saw 4 nice little trads that I could quickly grab on the way back. This was the last one for today and unbeknown to me I parked right next to the cache. This one I spent some time looking for, the gps had me jumping all over the place and the hint had me a little confused, was I looking for a rock near the eagle. However it kept throwing me back to another area, ok time to put it away and think. Looking in all the usual spots I found nothing, I started to expand my search and sure enough I finally found the hide. I tough find but a good result. I signed the log and replaced it as found, time for school pickup. Thank you for the hide, all good with cache and some nice artwork.

The littlies in the Child Care centre were doing something in the park, but paid me no attention. Pretty much what I expected but certainly not where. GPS was spot on for me...T4TC:-)
 
13-Oct-21
Eventually found it after ignoring the map, showing it in the car park, and the clue and reading a few logs. Definitely in the park and more concealed from sight than expected

23-Sep-21
Lots of muggles about made me blue however stealth had a cache in hand. Enjoyed the mural too.
 
08-Sep-21
After work i decided to find a few smileys around this area and i was very pleased. After finding a park close by i followed my compass to GZ where i used the hint (love it) and saw a familiar hide. . Thankyou for taking me here and for placing this cache here for us to enjoy

Proving to be a bit elusive but it’s here. Cache on!

Got it in the end! ️

Found Ok
 
21-Jun-21
Initially walked right past the cache and came face fo face with a giant eagle. Headed back to a more likely place for a cache to be hiding and there it was. Had a certain song in my head for the rest of the afternoon too. TFTC!
 
21-Jun-21
Walked straight by it before reassessing and heading for a more likely spot which resulted in a quick find.
Tftc!
 
11-Jun-21
Thanks so for the find! Very tricky indeed. Love it!
 
06-Jun-21
Found great cache!

About to give it then saw a tip in activity log that gave it away
 
25-Apr-21
Great easy first find. Thanks for the tip.

Stayed nearby after the Mega on the weekend, couldn't help myself but have a look for this as I drove past this morning.

All is well and dry here, lots of room left on the log, TFTC

All good with the cache still safely tucked in a fork of a tree. I’m sure any self respecting eagle wouldn’t roost there bring only knee high
 
27-Mar-21
Out for a quick pedal around before an event this afternoon. Great picture.
 
21-Mar-21
Nopety nope. We’re missing a trick here!

Love this street art and the cache itself – TFTC chasingadventures!

We were in this area today and decided to take the opportunity for a small detour and head to see if we could find this geocache. We were able to park very close by, and things were pretty quiet being a hot Sunday midday.
After a short search, the goods were revealed and we have added our name to the log sheet.
Thanks chasingadventures. A lovely little park!

This one has been on my radar since I saw it pop up earlier this year. Being in the area with some time up my sleeve I thought i would check it out. My gps had me in circles here. I took a seat out of the sight of the muggles close by to admire the street are and let the gps settle. Then I spotted the prize. Well placed, tftc

Fantastic hide !

After a great lunch at Flute nearby (recommended!), I was keen to find a few caches in the area.
Here I parked very close by and then tried not to look too suspicious as I kicked this and pulled that.
At last I took a couple of steps away and made an easy find. D'oh!
All is great here so TFTC.

After scoring a DNF on koala spotting in nearby White's Hill, I thought I would try my luck on a cache. The noisy miners announced our arrival since the geoterrier was assisting today. The GPS was dancing a lot and I was about to give up when I thought I would check one more place. The cache is fine - I could have done without the arachnid surprise though!

Thanks, chasingadventures, it was good to get up close to this street art.
 
21-Aug-20
Quick find
 
16-Aug-20
Still looking for the eagle... Lol. Fun find
 
03-Aug-20
After my recent DNF I had the cache on my watch list and saw that it was actually there.

Today, I happened to be passing close by and decided to have another look.

I didn't even get the GPS out of the car and found the cache in the second place I looked. I will admit that I hadn't looked in that spot previously as I was looking at a different elevation.

It is always good to turn a frown into a smile.

TFTC chasingadventures Oh! the artwork is great too.
 
02-Aug-20
Was not far away from this cache today so thought I'd stop by and check it out and the cache was still in the same place that I found it 2 mths ago. Keep looking folks.
 
02-Aug-20
Thanks to Imbunda for checking out this cache. Was very glad to hear it’s still in place. The replacement cache I ordered can sit in the cupboard when it arrives lol . Always good to have a back up. Good to go!
 
01-Aug-20
Two DNF’s time to disable and check it out. Thanks for the heads up!
 
01-Aug-20
Couldn't find this one today - had about a 10 minute search but unfortunately didn't come up with the goods.
 
31-Jul-20
For what others have been an easy find I could not find anywhere that could have hidden the cache. Maybe I was just cache blind.
 
30-Jun-20
I’m out in the suburbs today with . This was a quick find. All good here. Cache has been returned to it’s hiding place with a little bit of extra camo. TFTC

Thought this was going to be in the playground at first but quickly discovered that was part of a daycare.

Lifted this and kicked that until I moved on to other areas. Saw something that gave away the location and the cache was in hand. Nice artwork.

TFTC!!
 
16-Jun-20
We were out and about today, and being in the area, made our way to this geocache as it was placed on a date we were keen to fill.
A nice easy find and lovely artwork thanks for the cache.
 
16-Jun-20
Quick find on the way home from work. Thanks for the cache
 
16-Jun-20
As I live nearby thought I would walk down. Could not recall there being anything artistic near here but when I saw it, i did. Now to find it without gpsr. Lots of places but spotted a telltale ups. Tftc
 
07-Jun-20
Great to have another cache close to home! Thanks chasingadventures!
 
06-Jun-20
I haven't been able to get out and about due to Covid then the car broke down so today I thought I should make a start. All quiet at GZ as the shops haven't reopened so a easy park and I followed my ideas of where it may be and sure enough I wasn't disappointed. Signed the log and replaced as found. TFTC

This is the next place I stopped on my way somewhere else... I think I’ll still get there today... I’ve driven past here many times, thanks for making me stop...
