My kids and I looked for over 30 mins. Was standing on the point multiple times and couldn't find it. Ended up having to give up due to kids getting eaten by mozzies. I don't live too far so will look again next time we pass.
I could not find the geocache I looked at near head height which is what the hint was and I was directly on the geocache there was nothing there
#125 Great cache and beautiful location. I was lucky to go find it when no one else was around. TFTC.
No luck . We looked high and low, but couldn't find. (Also lots of cool mushrooms)
Searched far and wide. Shazzar66 ended up finding it, of course. Lovely area. We took a shortcut and almost landed in a lady’s backyard. TFTC
What a marathon. I must have spent close to 30 minutes searching up and down and all around but couldn't seem to get the right vibe. I had given up hope of a find and was heading back to the Jeep when I looked at a tree from a different angle and there it was staring at me. Thanks WallabyWanderers.
Great little cache took a while to find because I entered at the wrong point but cool anyway tftc
Oh wow it has been a busy morning already with a quick find first up, then a quick catch up, then a nice paddle up (the creek), then a couple of caches up (there). Now for a wonder around the town of Woombye. After the lab cache we decided to clean up a few more in this town. there were some interesting and fun caches. There was one I will have to come back to when I am better prepared.
The Lighthorse was an intersting hide but I managed to see it from a different angle. The waters had us taking the long way around. The chicken took a few minutes to hunt down. Then the logophile was a nice hide.
We signed the log and then returned all back to where we found them. Thanks for the caches and the hides.

Out and about with chamad collecting caches at Woombye this afternoon.
I'm sure there was an easier way to get to and from this one, but that's not how I roll. We made it in the end and that's all that matters.
Thanks WallabyWanderers for the cache.

WallabyWanderers I found your cache Woombye Waters on 26/6/2022, 3:05 pm. This is my find 3610 and find # 9 today. Found it after a brief search. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
Tricky one, but found it with help from the clues. Beautiful spot. Note to self…. White shoes don’t work when finding caches.
After a small search the cache was found and log sheet signed
Thanks for the cache
Thanks for the cache
Thank you, found it after we have had floods, I think the water had been over it, it's still dry and intact. This is my first find thanks so much for placing it there
We Shrekked it through The Swamp and came out feeling like soggy Donkeys! Better luck next time.
Very well hidden. Beautiful area, been a local for years. Creek was lovely after all the rain
Thought i was entering by the correct entry point - once i reached the waters and could see kids park play area i realised . Jumped the waters and got there anyway then a quick search revealed a well tethered cache. Signed log kingfisherau 12:45 pm 14/4/21 and replaced all as found,WallabyWanderers - TFTC.

I'm not sure but guessing the cache is a little trek into the scrub, LOTS of spiderwebs guarding the trees. Still a nice park to sit and have a snack though
On the way home from work, happened to need a find for this date so this was the closest & thought it would be a quick one before getting home to finish Xmas wrapping. Well, due to the entrance point that I chose, I think I made the journey considerably more difficult than intended. Parked in Sweetwater I think it was, trekked through the weedy scrub along the edge of the wall around the water fixture or well. Found the creek, jumped over at a narrow spot, managing not to get my work shoes too muddy. Scrambled through numerous spider's webs (used to that given our name, so all good) & found the park. Then it was a fair while walking in circles in & out of the bush until I finally was in the right position to spy the cache. It sure did blend in to the environment.. Quick sign & replace, then though I could find an easier way back through the park & along the road. Got to the road & realised that this was not the one I drove in on & with a closer examination of the map, discovered that it was the other side of the estate & the 2 roads did not meet. Opted out of several km walk along the road, opted in for retracing the non-existent trail across the creek, through the prickly scrub to the car. Whew! Really need to check the map more carefully in future & not rely on the auto driving navigation...
Nice spot though, looks like s good park for the residents.

Cap replaced and back in play, playground is still under construction at time of posting, but you can still access the cache at the other end of the Park
On the way up to Mapleton and and popped in for a few finds. Found after a short search, seems the lid is AWOL but contents are fine. Was going to visit incy next but after checking out what was needed, decided to give it a pass today. Maybe next time

Out and about with Konie today and after grabbing a nearby cache I had to get this one.
Located cache easily enough but unfortunately the container has no lid. Konie was the last finder who said lid was on when he last found it?????
Log signed and replaced on an angle to hopefully keep water out.

A short detour on my way home and after parking nearby enjoyed the walk to GZ where the little fella was soon found.

A lovely drive out the way today and we found this newly published cache. Thanks to the hint and good coords we spied it after a little search around firstly on the other side but the arrow pointed across. Log signed and replaced as found. Thank you WallabyWanderers for placing this cache.
FTF 10.10 am. Didn't even realize this nice little park existed before. A short walk over to GZ and a quick find due to the coords being spot on for us. TFTC WallabyWanderers
