Nice hide. Not my favourite place to look. Spotted after short search. Thanks for the cache and
Of course its in the wall! Why did I even bother with the tree. Ground zero was off a bit but found it after moving the best first rock I thought looked odd.
Tftc, I bit harder than I expected, took a bit of close inspection. Had to delay slightly due to a fox dragging off its brekky!
Tftc. When first seeing gz I thought this may take awhile but found quite quickly.
Took a bike ride to the nearby Parkrun this morning and collected a couple geos on route. Made extra hard work of this one, but got there in the end. TFTC
It was one of those stupidly hot summer days today but I had some time available and I was keen to go find some caches. I also still had my bike in the car from yesterday so I decided to come and ride this little section of bikeway. It didn't take long before I was drenched in sweat but somehow it seems much cooler when you are zooming along on a bike than when you are walking in the heat.I did the 3 caches in reverse order so this was my second find. Most of the traffic on the bikeway seemed to be taking the path across the bridge so there weren't too many people along this section and I could stop and have a good look. Didn't take me too long to find the nicely hidden cache. Thanks for the great hide Alisnan!
I LOVED this container! Ive seen these online and Ive always wanted one! Found this one real quick once we reached GZ. Nice one, thanks for the cache! Coolabah OUT!!!
All in all, it's just another geocache in the ....Took a little while but got it. Thanks. Cache is in good order.
Caching with RoddyC and imbunda.Set out after the nearby event. These caches have been on our target for some time. The closely event was a ready to put smiles on them.TFTCache alisnan
After attending an Event nearby we set off in search of a few caches.
I took one look at the wall as I was approaching but need not have worried. Quickly found. Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC

A beautiful day and a gap in my work schedule at lunch time ... time to grab a couple of caches!!
An easy find at gz today, log signed and cache replaced as found.
Thanks alisnan for the cache.

A few muggles walking on a Sunday, but infrequent enough to have a good poke around between each one. Agreed, it is nice to find a larger one. If you look at enough rocks sometimes they start to look back at you
alisnan I found your cache Kelvin Grove/City Bikeway #2 on 30/4/2023, 12:50 pm. This is my find 5147 and find # 4 today. A quick and easy find. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
These can be hit and Miss but luckily today was a quiet day and we could poke around for the couple of minutes it took. Tftc
Without the bike today so managed to find a spot to park nearby and a quick stroll soon had this cache in hand. TFTC
After dropping off my daughter at the airport, I stopped by to find this one - last in this series. Nice to see a good sized cache so left a geocoin to continue its travels. Tftc
We decided to go for an early morning walk before it got too warm and this small series was perfect for that. I started my search where my gps indicated and methodically worked to the left whilst Mr DisSister worked to the right. He didn’t have to go far before uncovering the cache. Thanks alisnan
Good clue.. so I started the methodical search. No sooner did I start, then I find it! Tftc
No trouble spotting this as it was in plain sight. Covered it up when I put it back.
While taking our grandson for a walk in this lovely leafy park we noticed a nearby cache so decided to investigate. Cache found after a little investigating various nooks and crannies.
Only problem is that a four year old has trouble understanding you cant take the lovely container home!!
Thanks alisnan

It was suggested that we get the bikes out Saturday morning and head off on the Ithaca Creek bikeway, joining up with the Kelvin Grove section. A soccer ball was back packed for some use along the way.
Quite a few people out this morning and of course I had spied a couple of caches to try to find on the return trip. This was the second that we tried today. The youngster is the best cacher in our family, and also the first to get bored. Maybe that’s why he is so good, so we can “go home now”. On approach, true to form he spied the container. All is good and dry with the logbook. Thanks very much for the hide Alisnan. Cheers

The second in the series and I wandered back and forward a couple of times. A few muggles strolled past but ignored the old codger staring at the rocks. Eventually, I spotted something shining and uncovered the cache.

#1 on way home from Hurston. Urgh, a rock wall but not too hard. TFTC, TFTH &TFT
Grabbing a few caches after a lovely catch up with friends at Vic Park.
After grabbing #1 walked down to find this one. Oh how I dread walls. Always nervous about what’s hiding in there. Well with good coords the only things I found were a few rocks and a cache. Yippee.

In the area this afternoon so stopped in to make the find. Parked on the opposite side of the creek and walked over the bridge. Quick find between afternoon walkers. TFTC
Found with JaffaJ, CachingPikachu, TheGeoSnake and the geo-dog on a post dinner walk to join the attempt to break the record for number of accounts that logged caches in a single day, to celebrate the International Geocaching Day and the 20th Anniversary of Geocaching. A fairly quick find with the assistance of the torch which JaffaJ remembered to bring! TFTC

Muggle65 and l headed out here on our lunch break. Had no idea how hard it would be to park on a work day. But cache was found safe and sound. Thank you for the fun
ah the nemisis, rock walls, not to long looking, thanks for bringing us here TFTC
A wall like this usually keeps me bzy 4 a while, but a quick find 2day, twixt multiple dog walkers! T4TC!
An exclusive container here.
Had to walk past first as another walker was having a rest not far away.
Thank you for hiding this geocache alisnan, without hiders the game wouldn't exist

Log is a bit late but found this one as an excuse to go for a nice evening walk with my partner. TFTC!
Another one on my mother's day walk. This one took too long especially as it was quite obvious in the end. Thanks for bringing us here.

On uber-duty (again) tonight - so with a couple hours to kill in the area figured time to knock off a few more of these newer caches in this area. First spotted (in the dark) an arachnid of deathstar proportions and a baleful glare, but thankfully the target item I wanted was a good metre left of that spot. Still, it took some ginger prodding and tapping with a stick before my hand went there. In the end, all good.
Thanks alisnan for entertaining me at this location.

This new series of caches are the target for me today…
Having met the lovely CO at a recent Hatzofff event, and learnt that extra “n” was there for a reason, I knew these caches just had to be found… if for no other reason than to say thanks for putting more caches onto the playing board for us to find…
Thanks to spot on coordinates it was a quick find… The gate was down and I thought I’d have to pretend I was counting koalas for the council workers, but they weren’t to be seen…
Thanks alisNan for bringing me here today…

Out for a short solo run this afternoon. I parked at the end of Bishop Rd, then walked along the bikeway to these 3 new caches.
The hint helped a lot, and I made a quick find. TFTC, alisnan.

I dont know how i missed these three caches when they were published and only 1.6km from my work. I did spot them today and thought it would be nice to ride there after work. So i left STARS and rode along Herston rd to picot street and there were a couple of big hills that i zoomed down and then struggled up. I enjoyed the ride along this path and then at GZ i worried because i am so bad at finding caches in these hiding spots. It did take me a few goes up and down before i spotted it . Happy days. Thanks for all the fun
Out for a short loop over to Enoggera Creek and then home via the Northern Cycleway (just a 25 km round trip). First call was coffee and cakes at that very great Italian Bakery Gerbino's a tad upstream from here and then exploring the new cache offering along the bikeway.
At first i thought I'd not been through this way before but once i moved to the next cache i realized there was a time when I did use this as a way to work when the pathway further down stream was closed for some reason.
Luck was with me today an a virtually picked the cache location immediately.

I was pleased to have no muggles in sight upon arrival. I have a good record with these hides and sure enough, it was not a difficult find.
All good inside so TFTC.

Full log to follow.

Saw these new caches come out last night and thought I know the area it may be ok to go now but then thought I am too tired, lol. I had to drop the wife off at work so it was going to be a late start at grabbing these new caches. It was a nice morning so I took Maddie with me and we took the scooters for a little ride around. We came to this one and it was Maddie who found this one, she was so excited to get one up on dad. We signed the log and then replaced the cache as found before we headed over to the last one of the new series. Thanks for placing these along here.
I don’t think I’ve ever been to this park before. Looks like the flood waters were above my head. Quick find. Thanks for the cache
