No luck here. Stopped during a thunderstorm. Looked everywhere, came up with nothing.
 
07-Jul-08
No luck for us today, found the area described by the clue but there were rocks stacked around it and some on the next levels. I checked where I thought it would be but no luck. We were on a bit of a time constraint so we'll have to come back another time.

i really liked where this one was hid. tftc!
 
12-Jan-08
Ignored to obvious for a while and then went back to it for a succesful find. Took pen and left bracelet.
 
03-Jan-08
I thought I had it but my geo aunt showed me up on this one.
 
03-Jan-08
Found at 1330 accompanied with geo nephew and geo brother.
Didn't take too long to locate, very interesting container.
 
03-Jan-08
Geo son missed the find and then geo Aunty showed him up and found easily.
 
18-Dec-07
Quick easy find but be carefull not to put pen down or it may slide down into the gaps between.
JABs.

Found quite easliy after remembering the clue. What sort of container is that? Nice hide anyway. TFTC
 
12-Oct-07
GPS unit went crazy, and so did we trying the find the spot. Eventually sort of triangulated a place where we thought it would be, and hey presto! The cadets had a great time making the creek shallower with rocks! Took nothing, left an orange whistle. Thanks Grank!
 
22-Sep-07
Geo son found this one I was nearly standing on it
 
19-Aug-07
We found this one quite easily after looking in the most obvious place.

attempt 3, and still no luck... searched for 30mins with a few extra pairs of eyes and still didnt unciver the cache. GPS reception is pretty bad here though Sad

After a visit to the nearby big shopping centre, we started another loop back over and under the freeway. Stopped off here, only took the boy a few minutes to find it and like philma said, it does look the part.

Cheers

Sneaky container that looks the part.
TNLN.
Thanks Grank.
Regards Philma and Geo-cheese & kisses.
 
05-May-07
searched with Mira and Cherryred, but no luck... GPS reception wasnt the best and we were pressed for time... will be back though!!
 
01-May-07
Had the dogs in the car so I did not have enough time, or the printout to know what I was looking for. Ineresting spot will be back
 
31-Mar-07
Being unfamiliar with the area and having only a basic map, this one had us backtracking a bit, and we were relieved to get close and finally log the find. Unusual container. TFTC!
 
23-Jan-07
Second find of 2 quick raids on the way back from Sydney. Found after initially a bum steer from trusty etrex, but a quick check of the clue meant a quickly found hide that I must classify as sneaky, considering the container. Love your work! TFTH. TNLNSL

New log placed in cache. All is good.

First of five caches the kids and I found when returning to Canberra from Newcastle. I poked about in the lantana for a while and was about to give up when I noticed the hole behind where the kids were sitting. I had a look in there, and my son spotted the cache container.

On the way home from the "Eye of the Dragon" event cphoenix and myself decided to give this one another go

After our last attempt we were convinced we knew where it was hidden.

As we approached the site, a baby brown snake (looked like new born) was sunbaking in our path. We waited a minute or two, I showed the snake my recently acquired skull ring, it took fright then decided it had had enough sunbaking for now.

We went straight to the "fox hole" where we had anticipated it to be, with a glove I had dared place my hand in the hole which I feared may be housing the baby snakes mother. With a long, sad face we hadn't found it.

We started heading back to the car when cphoenix found another fox hole and said we didn't look there last time. I had to correct him and tell him that I had mentioned the hole several times on our last visit but he was being a typical male and didn't listen hehe!!

I decided to lift a rock in the hole and Eureka! I had found it.

The saddest part was that I had looked in the hole on our last visit and I remember actually seeing the cache but I dismissed it as being a cache. Doh!!!

Hmn........ my only defence is that our last visit to the site was after a very long day caching and perhaps I should stop dying my hair blonde hehe!!

Very clever Grank, well done - fooled me.

Took dinosaur Left coin
BTW log book is now full,

After a long tiring day of caching we decide to give up on this one. We had looked for quite a while moving mohammed's mountain but to no avail. I had totally forgotten about the hint, I got too engrossed in moving that mountain.
Now that I am home and have revisited the hint hmn.... In hindsight I do remember seeing a [fox hole] but it appeared empty and I didn't want to place my hand in there, in case some creepy crawly wanted to have a nibble on my hand.

Oh well will have to try again another day, perhaps when we aren't so exhausted.

A great Grank geocache ground-zero with spot-on co-ords. Only problem was that we moved half a mountain trying to find the container. Finally moved just two rocks and found it. Now all we had to do was to move the mountain back where it originally was.

Approached this one from the wrong side and only realised when I hit water level. A well hidden cache right out in the open well done.

Found at 9.45am on our way home to Sydney. An easy find and a different container. While filling out the log, we were watched by a lizard with 2 tails.

Found at 2.30pm GAFF1. Great hiding spot and an interesting container. This was a bit of a diversion from where we were heading, but we are glad we did it. Thanks Grank. Took: Dice, Left: Whistle

Originally fooled by our high tech software, were took longer to get to ground zero than expected. Then it was time for the low tech stuff. Equally fooled, but found it eventually. Loved the container.

Had my eye on this one for a while as I pass it every day on the way to work but never had the time to stop. Nice quick find. Great container that blends into its surroundings well.

Took: Mirror Ball
Left: Key Ring

Thanks

Interesting Cache Container Though,

I must be unloved. No one told me "wear the fox hat". It must be that we have lived in the are since birth and it is understood to wear hats when it's cold. One of the best containers I've seen.

TNLN

Thanks Gfrank for one that was relatively easy.
 
12-Aug-05
Nice location. Walked over the top of it a few times before really digging into the fox hole. A lovely afternoon so I didn't need the fox hat. Interesting container. Took nothing left mirror ball.
 
08-Aug-05

Too good a day to spend inside so I thought I'd go for a quick afternoon cache hunt. Was joined in the hunt by a brush turkey but I beat him too the cache. If there was bread in there I may have lost the race. Clever container and great theme. Thanks again Grank! Took nothing left keyring.
