I'd printed this cache page out a little while ago to do it when we came up to do some of the Mt. Nebo Road caches. This was our first stop. Had a good hunt around with the gps once it got going, but just after that I got out the iPhone and it wouldn't bring it up. Put in the GC number and it came up archived. What a pity. We really enjoyed our little visit to this pretty little spot. A little haven in an otherwise busy suburb. A plaque, a bench seat, and some nice trees and shrubs. We also marvelled at the very pretty little creek down the bottom. Thanks for bringing us and showing us this little spot anyway Wingaap.

Found ok and dry after a quick search. Big Grin I bet that people that drive past this piece of bushland everyday , wouldn't even know it was here. Wink Thanks for showing us this spot wingaap

994 - Found this nice little spot and quickly found the cache at 3:28pm. Not far from the cache hiding spot was a large snake skin on the ground, which was quite a large one, I am glad we didn't run into its owner today. Someone (hopefully it was a muggle) has written on the cache hiding place, that you should check for it here, so maybe the next finder could take something like an eraser or something like a wet sponge to maybe rub the pencil marks off so the next muggle who comes along doesn't find the cache. Hopefully that will do the trick. Thanks for the cache wingaap.

Nice find - the hint gives you a good clue as to where it is.

Easy find. Tftc
 
03-Jan-11
Hmm, all I found was a clear, plastic screw-cap.
Was the cache in a screw top tube? If so, not any more, as I couldn't find the rest of the container.
I'll try again another day.

There I was thinking I knew The Gap reasonably well and then I find this little gem of a reserve protecting a massive tallow wood tree. Got to love geocaching for taking you to place like this! TFTC!
 
30-Sep-10
I loved this quiet corner
 
15-Sep-10
at 15:57. A very pretty spot. Perhaps the easiest Wingaap cache we have tried. I took one look at the area and put my hand straight to its location. Variety is the spice of Wingaap's efforts.

Thanks for yet another one Wingaap. It is fine.
 
15-Aug-10
Found in a nice little park and a good hide too.. Thanks to wingaap for the cache.
 
14-Aug-10
A tiny little spot of greenery here - we easily found the cache, and sat in the cool for a few moments before heading off again on our caching run. TFTC wingaap
 
10-Jul-10
Entering this secluded spot was like stepping into another world - so quiet and serene, just lovely (except for the trash left by a previous visitor). I took a seat and enjoyed the serenity and soon the cache appeared. I left a little surprise for the next finder then gathered up the trash and took it with me.

Thanks for the cache and for bringing me to this lovely spot Smile
 
04-Jul-10
A nice quick find before going to meet up with my caching chum Radnoski. Found it after a small hunt in this beautiful little hidden corner. I decided to shout this one a baggy as it badly needed one. Otherwise in good condition. TFTC Wingaap Smile
 
Visiting from Adelaide and left the GPS home. 8( Found it easily. Walked to the area and the first place I looked came up trumps. Thanks for the cache!

Great little spot. Quick find. TFTC
 
24-Apr-10
Second find for the day. So glad we found this spot, it was a nice place to sit and relax while my Partner in Crime did all the work...GPS led us astray but soon we had a lightbulb moment and went with a bit of instinct. TFTC!

Just the right time on my Wingy Weekend to take a quiet little rest.....what a lovely spot. The water must have fairly roared through here given the condition of the adjoining fence. Thanks for bringing me here Wingaap - cheers, svn07

30-Aug-09
Walked up and put my hand straight on it... there was a time when this would have had me searching for ages (the skills you learn hey?). I used to live near here and never noticed this little corner before. Thanks Wingaap.

Lesson number one... Trust your instincts... I wanderred down to this quiet little spot and immediately thought I know where the cache will be. Did I check there first though? NOPE... Twisted

I trusted the GPS and checked out a couple of different spots first before returning to grab the container... Sheeesh...

I meanderred back to the Gunniemobile, shaking my head and talking to myself.. Not that it is anything unusual... Big Grin

Cheers

What a nice little spot this was, tucked away. Nice tribute.

The water from the recent rain really went through here and the nearvy fence was pushed over.

Cache was in good order and easily found.

TFTC.

Nice flowers there and lovely park.

20-Feb-09
I nice area for a memorial. Gee the storm a few months ago must have done some damage as the fence surrounding this area was knocked down.

There were some fresh flowers in the vase beside the memorial. Must have had the 'look for a difficult/tricky hide' mentality today as this was the first thing I checked. I felt bad after checking it though as someone must visit fairly regularly to change the flowers. Probably not enough respect on my part but I have seen hides in flowers pots near memorials/graves before.
 
31-Jan-09
This was a nice quiet spot so I took a seat and relaxed for a moment. Found the cache and signed log. TFTC Wingaap.
 
29-Jan-09
After visiting the nearby cricket supply shop, there was a few spare minutes to cache on the way home. The huge tallowood tree is magnificent. All was quiet and the cache was quickly located. TFTC

Many thanks to Jabiru230 for the sitrep

In Brissy for a caching blitz with Steeba and Big Matt. An easy find in the park. Noticed that it was the gentlemans birthday today who appears on the plaque. I guess that why the fresh flowers were nearby.
Thanks

Nice wee spot and interesting to read the history.
Many thanks for the cache.
 
27-Jul-08
Must be my lucky day as it seemed cache after cache was quickly found and there were no loitering muggles to cause problems. This quiet spot was no exception - fortunately far enough away from nearby skate parks. TFTC.
 
27-Jul-08
Out caching with TheWonderStuff and ADV from NZ today. A lovely little spot with a bit of history and a cache which was found very quickly.

That's a mighty tree right near the corner here, and a lovely spot to spend a few quiet moments. Walked around in a circle and back to where I started to find the cache. SL. Thanks.
 
10-Jun-08
Searched the area where coordinates stated but it was a bit off...maybe at night or cloudy! Anyway, it's a MICRO and I have an idea of what to look for seeing many of these today on our caching quest. Gefscofix relaxed nearby and Posthaste watched Blygoat and I from afar. Oh, hints please...thanks please! Got it! Yes, I was right...Eclipse can! Gotta love it!

Had to reread the description on this one to make the find. After doing so, the lightbulb went on and we narrowed our search to one specific spot. Found the cache container that has now become known to me as the "Australian Standard". It was well hidden and a bit elusive at first, but finally was able to grab it and sign in. TFTC-SL TNLN

Dissimilar caches are obviously faster to make!
 
12-Jan-08
Cache replaced. Unfortunately the first replacement cache was muggled ie stolen. I was not feeling charitable enough to construct another cache container for the site and have resorted to a micro.

It is not hidden in the same spot as the original cache. However, my gps could detect no difference in coords.
 
05-Jan-08
The cache is gone.

As it would be some time until I could prepare a similar styled cache....it's archived for now.

 
02-Jan-08

It would seem to be missing.

Disabling until I can check out the situation.
 
28-Dec-07
3th try now........
is it still there???????????
 
29-Sep-07
A great cache, and a nice place to take a rest from caching. TFTC
 
15-Aug-07
Dropped by to check out this missing cache.

Hmmm it's not missing at all. It's right were it was originally placed.

 
14-Aug-07
Container was in the open and upside down. Lots of glass from beer bottles around, looks like a party went on. Cache is ok and I placed back were I thought it belonged. You may want to check its in the correct place. Great container, that one I'll remember for the future.
 
14-Aug-07
All safe and well tucked up in it's hiding place.
