24-May-22
Container replaced today. Water proof again!
 
05-May-22
What a view! The size of the mine is mind boggling! The container is a little weathered but in ok condition. TFTF
 
21-Apr-22
Quick note, I’ll look to place an updated container here shortly due to the lid damage reported today.
 
20-Apr-22
We were surprised to find such good facilities near where we parked the car… swings, bbqs, toilets, picnic shelters, etc. Love the mural we passed on the water tank too.

Anyway, onward and upward we went to find this cache and were soon at the top. Fantastic views all around.

Cache was quickly found. Lid’s broken but logbook is all dry.

Thanks for the cache and showing us this lookout.

This cache took a little while to find but did get it in the end. It is good to see that a lot of these older caches are still active. TFTC
 
04-Dec-21
Took me ages to find. My co ordinates were only 3m out by gps. Was determined to get this old. Lots of mosquitoes out this way.
 
03-Aug-21
Logging old caches originally found with alphag_25. Now have my own account and logging them separately so that i can claim the finds or not as the case may be. TFTC.
 
03-Aug-21
A quick trip out for these caches and a great morning caching around the hill and some awesome views from the cache locations. Parked the geomobile at the bottom of the hill and walked along to Wreckers Run and then proceed up to the other caches. Still to do the Mystery caches but that will be another trip. TFTC TNLN SL
 
24-Jul-21
We had been aware of this bunch of caches for a while and at last we could venture this way. Left the caravan at the Golf club and up we went. Some we did by hiking to gz and others were close to the road. We saw a huge python sunning itself by rocks. Thanks for hiding and adding to our adventure. Fav point
 
29-Jun-21
Found it. And again, my fellow geocasher pippahicup is right. What a view. Great area.
 
09-Jun-21
On a quick day trip to Middlemount to pick someone up.
Actually thought this cache was along a different track but I didn't have time to find it. Then, just happened to stop for a photo and thought "wonder where this track leads...".
Conquered a few fears getting to this one (heights, spiders, etc) but so worth it for the view! TFTC!

I am zigazging my way to QOGM in Barcladine. Yesterday, I met up with my regular caching buddy, stortigirls. W spent last night in Emerald and this morning, headed off on a detour to Middlemount. This one was quickly located and the log signed as we made our way to our main target fro the day. Great views from GZ. TFTC
 
24-Sep-18
On a roadtrip with Selva Girls on our way to Barcaldine for the Queensland Outback Geocaching Muster. Today we were exploring from Emerald back to the Middlemount mining area. Selva Girls and I had solved the Mountain Goat Puzzles,and climbed around the area retrieving what we could in the heat, before we had to leave to get to our next accomodation in time. We approached gz and found the container as per the hint. What amazing views here! Tftc TEAM FREAK Big Grin

Still on our way to QOGM 2018 in Barcaldine. Caching along the way. It has been interesting caching with RoddyC and Mrs RoddyC as I am usually caching alone. Good to have company and looking out for each other. TFTC freaky kwyjibo
 
21-Sep-18
We came across your cache, TEAM FREAK, on our way with youngoldfella, caching towards this year's QOGM in Barcaldine.

Walked past while admiring the view then thought it was down below. So down we went. THEN read the hint. DOH!

Log signed and cache replaced at 3:24 PM on September 21, 2018. TFTC.

Sarina to Middlemount
Today we moved camp, inland into the mining regions of central Queensland.
We found a good variety of caches in some amazing locations.
A short walk from where we parked the car, I think I was litterally standing on it when I stopped to check the view out.
FP for the great view from here.
Thanks for placing this cache freaky kwyjibo

Good cache! Beautiful view!!
 
12-Jun-18
Mrs Slow Puncture had solved a puzzle for a cache which had been published over 12 months ago and remained unfound ... the only problem is it was some 650 kilometres from home Surprised A call was put out for some company on the trip and Mrs Just a Trifle jumped at the chance to provide some moral support on the trip north [^]

After staying overnight in Rockhampton, we headed toward Middlemount, arriving on Blue Mountain just before lunch. We headed up to the picnic area and found the nearby caches before heading down the hill toward the first puzzle cache on our list Cool

Thank you freaky kwyjibo for placing the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy Big Grin

Tuesday. Mrs SP and Mrs JAT were up Central Qld and turn left! Cache found in short order (we actually had a moment when we read the hint and wondered what it meant) but we soon realised what it meant and we quickly had the log in hand and signed.

This was the 2nd of 5 caches found on today's trip.

Thanks ***freaky kwyjibo***, for showing us this place. Smile

Cmon Freaky, I can't let this one go by the wayside , you picked a great spot and is large enough for a few trinkets for geo-kids to swap out ( My kids dislike finding a cache and it's tiny). Happy to continue maintenance while I'm still here Smile
 
22-Feb-17
I am happy to see this cache is still alive. I left the area about 6 years back and thank Peaty for the maintenance.

Awesome. Stumbled on this game by accident today while trying to find a cache server on the net to play Triple J on the work computer. Coincidentally Triple J have there own Cache's hidden arround Oz which is how I stumbled onto this game.. Once registered and joined and discovered there is one here in Middlemount well being 8:30 at night wasn't going to bother me I was way to excited. Took about 20min but I found it.. And I've been past that location a hella times before. My Love of hiking and exploration just elevated Over 9000!!!

Another successful find. Not as much fun without my kids here though!

A favorite point from me.

After an easier walk up the hill to GZ than I expected I was able to enjoy the view.
But nearly had to log a DNF as I was having trouble locating it due to the ground cover.
Coords spot on and so was the cache location.
Thanks freaky kwyibo for a good choice.
