I had a look for this one .. when I noticed on PDA the DNF Logs. It has not been found since January. As the cache owners have not logged on for nearly 4 years - I think it is time to put this one to bed.
This cache is NOT here, the spot and clue are obvious so there's no way it is just well hidden.
Found lots of mozzies - or should I say they found us. The cache, however, was not found.
did a spot of caching in our local area on a wet and soggy Australia Day. TFTC. PS.......the notebook was a bit wet......
When better to Geocache than during a cyclone, found it, found mozzies & exited just in time for a falling tree at the GZ. TNLN
A nice and easy start to doing some of the caches in FNQ. Found quickly in the stifling heat and humidity.

Found during a quick lunch stop nearby. The cache contents seem to have dried out a bit, so logging wasn't a hassle. Many thanks.
First cache for Cairns, found it easy, but it was very soggy and needs repair.
Found this one on our way to Port Douglas. Easy grab.

Swooped in and grabbed this one on way home from picking up geoson from work. Log was saturated and in need of urgent replacement. Lucky I had another close at hand and was able to replace it. The cache is in need of urgent mainetnance. TFTC TNLN SL
Located easily enough with Diesel48, however log was to wet to sign. Hope to return soon with a new note book to sign.
Found the cache. I wish I had read the notes before finding so that I could have replaced the log book. Sorry!!! I tried to sign the soaked log. It desperately needs a new log book. TNLN SL. T4TC. Bamster.
found it not hard at all but needs replaceng due to water damage had great fun took nothing england.
Tried yesterdy but there were too many workman around so called by again today. This time no-one was around and the cache was quickly located. I was unable to sign the log as it was just far to wet. It desperately needs a drying out or replacement. Unfortuneately I didn't have a replacement book with me. Took Geocoin TFTC
Found it easilly enough but inside it a bit wet. Need a new note pad. Nice spot. Darlek_Caan

Found the cache on a hot sunny humid Cairns day. Dropped off a well over due Geocoin (Toronto 2006 Geocoin).
I approached from across the railway so missed the information boards.But I found the cache even though info-challenged. Took fish, left frangipani flower. TFTC
Tom Tom had us going in circles trying to find the way in to this one so we decided to do it the old fashioned way and once that was sorted out we read the interesting notice boards here and then took a short stroll to gz where the cache was located in the first place we looked

This was our second find for the day, following three DNF's, so it was nice to finish with a success. To make it even more rewarding, we did this one in the dark!! Took a butterfly, left a penny.
snuck in from the back side for this one. T squishy frog and TB L Hair clip, green shell and blue beads. TFTC
Came by before the crowds at about 0705 and left a couple of travel bugs. Thanks for placing it.

An easy find and a nice little walk to this one I am surprised an area with this vegetation doens't have any mossies.
Nice stop off from the highway traffic, found easily in the company of weroamin during a days caching in the area. TNLN. TFTC.
Hi one and all, just a quick note to let you know we have taken away this cache for much needed maintenance. Will be back on location very soon. Platy's Mob
Dropped in for a geocoin swap. The cache was very wet inside and the log was saturated. This cache needs maintenance L: J.Royals Geocoin T: Geocoin TFTC.
Dropped a TB in here, but didn't say for long as I'm saving my blood to donate to the blood bank! Took me a few minutes to find as it's moved from when I last visited. The water table is quite high here and I chose a high route across the islands rather than direct and more wet alternative, but it wasn't hard.
This was my first cache finding and I was quite excited to find it. Area thick with mozzies! Definitely needed the clue to find it as I don't have GPS yet.

This one needs a little maintenance as it looks like it was submerged in recent floods.

Teamed with Mike-FNQ we went in search of the cache.
The little black insects sure do a good job of moving you on quickly.

Found this one at 1715, just as the traffic started to pick up and the drizzling rain decided to kick in. Great idea for keeping the cache dry. Ballbag nabbed the container from its hiding spot and Bumblebee signed the log. Agree with macandrita about being mozzie prepared. TNLN. TFTC.
