Very well hidden. Accurate coords. We had to sneak around the back to see it. TFTC Brocafkids
Publication of a new AL in Portland prompted me to make a day trip to the town where I spent my early childhood years, a long long time ago. I've been back many times over the years to see relos who lived there, but not in the last five years since the last of them passed away. Not much has really changed since I was last here, except for a lot more caches being placed ... yay!I've travelled the Boulder Road a lot over the years but can't say that I've ever noticed this place before ... perhaps it's something that' s new. Whatever, a straightforward find thanks to pretty good coords. Thanks for the hide Brocafkids.
Quick find.Spending a few days camping at Lake Wallace with good friends and getting some caches too.Tftc
We were just about ready to give up when one of the group spotted the tiny container in the mud inside the fence. Fortunately we were able to retrieve it. TFTC Brocafkids
Found in the mud behind the fence. Luckily we had a tool with which we were able to retrieve it Replaced where we thought might be the best spot for it TFTC
Thanks to my friend spotting it on the ground inside the fence, after we had spent ages trying to find it. we logged signed and put it back on a pole/
After a great lunch at the pub we set off home by a different route. We searched everywhere we thought it possibly could be before Apsley's eagle eye spotted it on the ground inside the fence. We replaced it where we thought it could be but the CO might like to check. We suspect a slightly different place where a strong wind would let it be knocked off. Thank you for some great caches Brocakids - a smiley on this to represent your good work.
#6539- Avenging a DNF for thomo31. This time we spotted it after a short look. Thanks
Back today with WaywardWoman for another look. A surprising quick find this time! Signed log and returned as found. TFTC
Another quick find whilst on the road towards the Turon for a week of camping
Thanks for the cache

I was here today visiting family and we decided to do a spoop of the new Portland caches. I had already picked one up at Blaxland on the way through the mountains but it was a fine, sunny afternoon and Irondale and I decided to make hay while the sun shines.
This one was an instant find as soon as we pulled up! TFTC Brocafkids. Been seeing your logs all over the place in my caching travels.

We are heading out for a day's caching in an interesting area. The GPS wanted the other end but we found the right place. TFTC
Out for the day to explore some familiar and some new places. Over-ruled the GPS (it happens often) to get the tight location. TFTC

Searched with rogerw3 while caching in the area today, but couldn't spot anything.
Found on the way home from Wentworth Falls today, dropped off the geograndie after two weeks holiday with us! Thank you for the cache! : )
Just far enough from the car and gardener just inside the gate. The spot on coordinates were a massive relief and I made the find unnoticed.
I had no idea this was here!?!
