Found by Mary and David at 10:45. So dry. Weren't expecting that. Enjoyed the walk. Sorry to be leaving Toowoomba but we're on a timetable. Wouldn't want to take a dip in that pool right now, as the surface is covered in scum. Dropped off " Azores geotour geocoin 2 edition" TB. Our thanks to HippyDonna.

Headed out this morning determined to add some new smileys to my map. Expanding the cache hunting out of Toowoomba, brought me to this beautiful little parkland. What a wonderful little walk!! The desire pathway gave this one away, added a bit more camo cover to this one before onto the next. TFTC!!

We are now heading north to avoid the coldest of the winter weather in Victoria. Today we headed off from Brisbane up around Ispwich into Toowoomba.

Stopped off here at the tourist info centre. So much to see and do around here, but this was a must for me. A quick find once at GZ after enjoying the wlk to this one.

Thanks HippyDonna for placing this cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy finding it.

Hi there HippyDonna, we found your cache Federation Park Walk today.


Day two touring out from Toowoomba. Previous days have seen some great geocaching, and today is looking to be the same if not better.

Found the cache a little exposed, so we hid it a little better.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour around the area today, ending up finding quite a variety of container types, sizes and ratings.

Coordinate Accuracy: We found this cache near where our GPS said we should be looking.

Cache Condition: Good.

Regards
Ian & Penny

The wife and I were having the weekend away in Toowoomba and I found a few caches while in the area.

We were heading out of town to find a few target caches and this one was on the way. I parked at a spot which was reasonably close and I headed down the hill and found a nice flat concrete path which I could have used from the other parking spot. I followed the path to gin an easier access and soon spotted the cache. I signed the log and then headed back up the hill. I was surprised how dry the ground was with cracks starting to open up in the clay and the grass crunching under my feet.

A day of caching south of Toowoomba and many gravel roads were travelled to find a variety of cache hides. Had a few DNFs around Cambooya but most others were easy finds. Thanks to the COs for placing caches around your local area for us to enjoy trying to find!

Out and about caching and while driving around, stopped near GZ to do this cache. Searched and found. Signed log HippyDonna
 
16-Mar-22
We parked the geomobile in the parking area and set of for a lovely stroll to GZ. There, the cache was quickly located. Names added to log, cache returned to its spot and we were on our way again. TFTC

Its Sunday, nothing better to do, lets pack some sangas and a thermos of coffee and head into Toowoomba for a bit of caching - well that was the plan.....

The Federation Park Walk has been on my todo list for months, but togzday, we parked up and Mr D was feeling good enough to do the whole round trip.

Almost at GZ, I plunged into an abyss of long strangling and foot tripping grass which completelyh obliterated any uneveness of the ground below.

Now, there are usually two ways to approach a cache, and today, I chose the wrong one. Mr D rescued me and said I should have gone the other way - der! So, while he did the signing honours, I approached from the other side and gave him a trackable to leave in the cache.

Thanks HippyDonna for the hide and the fun. Nice walk

 
18-Jan-22
Been quite some time since we invaded Toowoomba and surrounding areas so a-caching we will go! Smile
Decided to camp overnight in Cambooya as we were having such a good time & there were still caches to find here and about. Wink

A very pleasant walk for a quick find away from prying eyes.
All good here.
Made our mark & replaced as found.

Haven't been to this park in a few years now. When the kids were younger we along with 3 other families used to come here on the weekends and have a swim in the waterhole. This is the emptiest I've ever seen it. Can help but wonder how much deeper it actually goes.
It was good to walk around the track again, and there seems to be a couple of empty spaces for picnics and a game of cricket or soccer. Its a great little park. Thanks for bringing me back.
Left a pet rock in the cache for swaps.

An awesome way to spend the afternoon with the geo daughter.
We stopped here last weekend, noting to myself that I was surprised there wasn't a cache here.
When we saw this was a new cache we thought we would make the drive to nab a FTF.
My daughter decided that she wanted to leave a number of swag items for the next finders.
Thanks for the cache HippyDonna
