As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

unfortunately this place is now crawling with smelly old hoboes who defcate and urinate all over the place.... twice now this cache has been destroyed by those so i will no longer fix it..... thanks to all who logged entries during its time.... jezza

No Luck on this one, great spot though. Tried to take a shortcut and ended up bush bashing way more than I planned(and was dressed for).
 
28-Jan-11
I found the logbook on this one as well (which I grabbed) - which to me counts as a find. No container to be seen anywhere. This one definately needs attention ASAP. Some great views from here. TFTC jezza79 Smile

I was here about three years ago, unsuccessfully, but this time was a lot easier. The cache was pretty much where I'd expected, luckily, and the shenanigans of last time were thankfully not repeated. I still like the view from here Smile TFTC. ='.'=

A nice walk to GZ where the cache was soon in hand, I did like the view from this location. My thanks to jezza79 for the cache.
 
16-Nov-10
Found this one with BlueAstroDog just coming from Cache "Ships Ahoy" down the "bottom" we looked up...thought about it...then decided to drive...it seemed safer Razz Nice spot TFTC
 
08-Nov-10
Went to the location and found the burnt remains of the previous container, the plastic lid was melted shut. I managed recover some of the undamaged SWAG from the old container and placed it in a new container.
The new container is a small semi transparent container.


 
23-Oct-10
Second attempt at this one. Wasn't sure from the log if it had been replaced or not
 
17-Oct-10
Has been previously found and container burned and melted

15-Aug-10
No luck today

I think we very much confused some passerbys also (as to what we were up to!)
 
03-Aug-10
We are on holiday from CH CH NZ.So decided to bring our GPS,and pick up a few Aussie Caches 5th so far.Our family live very close,so we had it on our list.Umm it had us hunting for a little while,and then we put our Geo brain into gear and found it soon after.TTB TFTC
 
31-Jul-10
No luck this time. I think the co-ords are off a bit after reading other logs. Will have to try again on our next visit.
 
30-May-10
nice walk on track and loverly view.. hide well.......
 
26-May-10
A nice easy find for clankirks today while we enjoyed the views.
Thanks for the cache jezza79
 
26-May-10
Found with LeadNinja and clankirks, good location and views. Thanks jezza79.
 
26-May-10
After reading previous logs, decided to follow lokipagans co-ords, which took us straight to the cache. Thanks Robyn for the heads up. Thanks also for bringing us here, the views are great.
 
22-May-10
We arrived near GZ and there was something that would be a good spot for a hiding cache. But the GPS wanted to take us further away and then read some of the logs it suggested the co-rodinates were little off. Anyhow we decided to look where I would have thought to put it and had a look around and coudln't see anything. Had another look at the GPS and geodaughter had the cache in hand. See is getting good.

Wow, I'm so not getting this cache. First DNFed it in Dec08 and still can't find it today... Thanks for the hunt!
 
17-Feb-10
We were initially headed for the wrong area but thankfully the hint put us back on track! Turns out it was where we expected it to be without listening to the GPS all along!! Our coords with 4m accuracy were S27 27.775 E153 11.445. Cache is in good condition. Convenient little hiding spot Wink. Fantastic views!! Really great spot for a cache. Thanks jezza79. Left TB.
 
31-Jan-10
I am very fortunate to have had Svn07 travelling with me today, as she navigated me to an approach path, that provided me with a very convenient parking spot... [^] We approached from the top and had a nice easy stroll down the hill... At GZ, the cache was a nice easy find and business was done and dusted in a couple of minutes... Wink

On our way back up tot he Gunniemobile, I local had set himself up just off the path, with his tally of VB... A little disconcerting I can tell you but he was polite enough and wished us a good weekend...

Quite a view from GZ today as the king tide hit the bayside... Cheers jezza79.
 
30-Jan-10
Found it after short walk toward the cache.
Thanks for bring me here.
Lovely view.
 
27-Jan-10

Went up the bank the hard way only to see path leading up !
hard one to find with the trees affecting my GPS
 
13-Jan-10
Third time lucky. A bit more experience in finding caches helped this time. Took a jellyfish and left a spider. TFTC
 
09-Jan-10
Found it OK. TFTC Tavurvur
 
09-Jan-10
With 3 young uns keen to search, that drop was just far too big and far too close, couldn't take our eyes off the kids long enough to look for the cache.
One for another day.
Thanks
 
02-Jan-10
most enjoyable walk and view to wish you could see is every day, with bonus easy find too
 
31-Dec-09
It took a while to find this one. Problems with GPS. A lot of broken glass.
 
31-Dec-09
Searched twice but we could not find it.
 
26-Dec-09
Four of us searched for quite some time, but just could not find it.

Will try again if we are in that area.
 
05-Dec-09
Found at night with Ozibags & Agap2 a nice walk & look out over Manly Big Grin
 
05-Dec-09
Found after dark with PigWig2 and agap2 after a Fish 'n Chips get-together at Wynnum. agap2 made this easier for PigWig and I. Nice views over the bay - would have been better with night vision goggles Smile TFTC jezza79
 
13-Sep-09
Down by the bay for a day out with Mrs Ant24 and geobub. So thought we would grab a couple of easy caches too.

Grabbed this one at 11:19am, but had left the pen in the car, so signed the log with a bit of charcol I found laying around!!

13-Sep-09
A family day by the day wouldn't have been complete without a few caches. This was the first one grabbed, nice and easy, but we had left the pen in the car so MrAnt signed the log with a bit of charcol.

02-Sep-09
quick easy find in the obvious spot so I can't imagine anyone not finding it unless they have being drinking all those emptys at gz!!! HAHAHAHA Proper foot wear would be a good idea in finding this one because there is a bit of broken glass around the place!!! Some people just don't get it do they, ruining a great spot with their own inconsiderate nature!!! grrrrrrrr tftc took tb blacky bloek
 
21-Aug-09
Great spot. My 2nd find as I don't have a GPS yet. Travelling with Daniel 2:22. Thanks for the views, shame about the litter.
 
21-Aug-09
Last find for our day in wynnum. Seems like the place to party if your a local with a case or two...
nice views mind you, thanks for the cache

04-Apr-09
Great exhausting walk this one but some great views and no body would know if not told of. but there was young muglers at this one and we couldnt risk them knowing where it was. but thanks for the effort jezza79 great views maybe next time.
 
20-Feb-09
NOT Entered into the book of LEDGIN'S. Spent a good half hour here but the hide was too good for me today. I will return with re-inforcments. Thanks jezza79
 
11-Feb-09
like the previous finder, this took me way longer than expected... but this one is well worth it. What a great location that I doubt many know about??

cache dry and in good condition.

thanks jezza.
 
10-Feb-09
Could not find this Cache. Seems like quite a few parties had happened up there so don't know if it was that or we just weren't looking hard enough!
 
08-Feb-09
Searched high and low, unable to find. Will come back and try another time.
 
08-Feb-09
It took us longer than expected. Was larger than we thought. Nice spot for the cache and nice place to visit. Much cooler in late afternoon.

Was in Brisbane over the break. But GPS didn't survive the trip back so am having to trace back my steps (date may be out by a day or two). Found easily enough with TanFin. Smile
 
04-Jan-09
Approached this one from the low road initially on our way to Views of Wellington. Took the high road, admired the fabulous views and had a great time exploring this area. Tommy climbed the rocks, Dad went bush and Mum followed the tracks. Even the geo hound could not sniff this one out, may be time to trade in the Ninja Beagle! We will return!

Found with Strong Arm during a Cache frenzy. TFTC
 
30-Dec-08
Find 10 of 51 on a big day of caching with Kholometers. A nice stroll up the hill with my head still throbbing from the previous cache but it was found easily after a few minutes of searching - TNLN, TFTC.
 
26-Dec-08
No find for us today.
 
07-Dec-08
This one really had me stumped. I found my way to GZ easily enough but then the GPS was trying to get me to go places that would have required a safety harness and this flower is not into that sort of thing! After scratching around for about half an hour I sat down to look at things from a different perspective and hey presto - there it was. Woo hoo!!
Thanks Jezza79 - great location and excellent hide.

01-Nov-08
The only downside to this one was where I parked the car.
Great views . TFTC

29-Oct-08
2.00 pm and Mr was calling "can't spend all afternoon on it" when Mrs called "found it"! The coords were jumping around but we had looked there and don't know how we didn't see it. They are all easy once you've found them!! Took TB Official Maine Lighthouse, will check his log to see where he needs to go. Left a knight to guard the cache. 3 TBs travelling with us visited to meet their new mate. TFTC and the nice view.
 
12-Oct-08
In Brissy for a caching blitz with Steeba and Big Matt. A very deceiving cache, its close by but not close enough by to be a drive by.
Thanks
 
12-Oct-08
Found on the Brisbane Caching Invasion with Steeba and The Rats. thought we could short cut but not so lucky.

Thanks jezza79 for the cache.

No 176 of 205 on the weekend caching spree in Brisbane with The Rats and Big Matt & Shell.

Very interesting spot here- we thought it might have been just near the road but that was wrong! TFTC!
 
13-Aug-08
Treaded gingerly after reading previous logs but thankfully no sharps today and Dizzyanne soon had cache in hand. TFTC
 
13-Aug-08
Great view, lovely spot, thank for bringing us here. Left Maine Lighthouse TB - thought it was a good spot for him.

Wow, Excellent view - worth to visit, enjoyed walk along to the cache. SL. Thanks jezza79 for organising the cache and hunt.
 
08-Aug-08
Had a really good look around - was definitely in the right spot byt he description but just couldn't find the cache!

Well went back and looked again needles still evident but took a chance and found it while Zenelf stayed safely on the platform

TFTC TNLN SL
 
04-Jul-08
nice little spot pity the low life of society have found it to stopped looking when needles were found at gz not worth risking geokids or our own health by continuing unfortunately this is happening more and more
 
29-Jun-08
2nd of 18 for us today.

Have been past this particular spot on too many times previous to mention but never once ever ventured up on this particular track. Great view from the GZ.

Cache found by our eldest geokid (he was very pleased with himself that he beat his younger brother to the find Smile).

The geokids made a few small swaps and then it was off to the next one.
Thanks for the hunt.
Cheers

First Find, YAY! (thanks to Jezza for the extra hint to get me started). In company with GeoPooch, a lovely early morning search and sea/see. TFTC
 
03-May-08
I really don't like it when the last 400 logs say 'easy find', because that means for sure I won't find it. I arrived at GZ to find 2 young male muggles hanging around, but I scared them off. So I had a good look around, but couldn't find the cache. Then another older male muggle arrived and scared me off - there must be a rule that the new person gets to stay, and the one already there has to go. Anyway I had a pretty good look so it's def a DNF. Just be careful putting your hands where you can't see, as I saw a syringe pkt lying on the ground. TFTC jezza79

Another one of those nice locations that seem to be only found when geocaching....thanks for the cache.

Found the cache after several minutes wandering around, only to realise that we should be thinking like a cacher more and using the GPSr less Big Grin

Thanks for the good company, dandent, and for carrying Jai back up the small hill.....he says "hanks mate".

#18 of 32 finds in Brisbane on day one of a big weekend's caching, in company with The Garner Family and HawMorFords. I found this one at 1655. The view was great out to sea. The cache had some pretty good swaps in it, but I made no exchange. Thanks to jezza79 for the cache. Cheers, dak.
