Yay! cool spot. no koala sightings though, but I love this forest. Took the stretchy frog and left Mr Angry Hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius). The papers in the box were pretty soggy and the green garbage bag in the description was not with the container - hence why it was damp I suppose. I didnt have anything with me to replace the bag, perhaps the next visitor can wrap it up up again. Thanks dohertys!

Found this one on a great fine day in Brisvagas.

A shredded piece of the item covering the cache gave away the location.

Found this one while evading many people on the trail. Took the Fulham TB and will drop it off in New Zealand next week. Was going to put in two Hemidactylus frenatus (starting to be a pest in Queensland) but I think they have been here before reading the log book. So TNLNSL

Did anybody lose a flouro pink BALLINA R.S.L. pen because I found it within 10m of cache!! (It still works)

I have been here many times for lunch etc. but never explored the trails. Will have to bring the mountain bike next time!

Thanks Brendan.

Found this cache while out for a bike ride. Left what I thought was a dinosaur that I retrieved from another cache. Turns out this fellow is not a dinosaur but a pelycosaur, an early ancestor of mammals. Say hello to your great*10^50 or so grandfather,a Dimetrodon. Thanks for the cache.

Koala center was very interesting. You should visit after finding this cache. The walk was hot. Scared of the big spiders as we approached the site. Dropped off a couple of travel bugs so JM could pick them up.

Visiting from Singapore, this was the first cache of the trip. We enjoyed the walk even though we didn't seen any Phascolarctos cinereus. We were a bit timid approaching the cache after watching a week of TV shows about Australia's deadly creatures before we arrived. After fending off all the spider webs with a stick, we finally reached the spot. Found the cache easily once we were close. Took a dragon, left a Kiwi from our Christmas New Zealand trip.

Just came from Nowhere in Particular and once again it was my daughter who found this cache. Our batteries expired at approx. 40mtr from the cache so it was guess work that got us there. This time I let my daughter select what she wanted which was the dolphin candle and she left a clip on Phascolarctos cinerus.

Thanks for the cache

Again another Saturday night with no date... SurprisedSad
So I rang 2 friends up and asked them to come along.

I finally got a chance to come back to this area, as I didn’t have any time at or after the picnic to go search for this one.

Started the trek at about 8:45pm and had found it at 9:30.
Took a while to go the last 38 meters since it was all dodging big spiders with even bigger webs.

As we made it back to the car we where approached by an officer in a paddy wagon car who asked us what we where doing. Told him I lost my wallet and he took off.

Took Koala thingo, Left Scented dolphin candle.

Thanks for the find dohertys Big Grin

While doing the searches at the Spring Picnic we found we were close to this cache so decided to find it. Maybe thats why we came last in the hunt????. Found it with no trouble with Mrs Deco. Took out the TB (Alces Alces)(Molly)which had been left by the earlier searchers from the Picnic and left an Amphiprion Percula.

The Spring Picnic 2004 event cache was located in the same reserve as this cache, so it was a case of 'two for the price of one'. While awaiting the start of the event, several of the teams went in search of this one. I was in the company of aandm, and a found it first.

The only fauna I had in my swaps box was a plastic goose (Polycarbonaticus honkius), so I put it into the cache, and extracted nothing.

This was our favourite Qld cache during our short 5 day stay. We lunched at the nearby picnic spot and had close encounters with several dacelo novaeguineae, and many hungry and noisy acridotheres tristis. Were lucky to spot, and get very close to quite a large, friendly varanus gouldii interested in our "Red Gallus Domesticus" scraps. Alas, no phascolarctos cinereus to be found today. We took the skincidae puzzle and left the green geckonidae, before rushing off to catch our plane home to SA. Thankyou for bringing us to this tranquil spot.

Found it with the help of SirSmokingHam and Altek.
It was my first find and it was fun, but due to my GPS running out of batteries which really ticked me off, but luckily we saw its allocated area.

Did this one again with Darren and Kyle, they both enjoyed the local area and it's sites as well as the Cache. We took some photo's of Maple Bear with a Koala which I will post once I get them developed. We left him here so he could live with the Kola's for a while. We also left a "Carcharodon Carcharias" (Great White Shark) and took a Kookaburra.

Still in great condition and we hid it well again.

Another good spot Some one had left a travel bug Mr Chip so he has gone for a ride with the clock. Left a dragoness with a transport caress as had nothing else in with me. The cache is in good condition

Thanks for a great cache

Found this one as my fifth and last for the day, in the rain. Noticed an orienteering marker near where my GPS was initially pointing. The rain and tree cover threw my signals out for a while, but then they came good, and I spotted GZ from about 20 m away.

Took the Scylla serrata, Left a boxing Macropus rufus pen.

Nice location. I will have to come back when its dry. Good one Dohertys.

Nice wet day for a walk in the forest. We didn't have to much difficulty finding this cache. We got to the location and the GPS tryed to throw us off the track but the hiding place ended up being obvious. So many good things in the cache but we only had a Carassius Auratus Plasticus to swap so we took nothing except the Beaver travel bug. We didn't see any Cabletius Tightus in this cache, maybe next time. Thanks for the hunt. PS: Our GPS ended up agreeing with the coordinates posted, just took it a few minutes to sort itself out.

Stopped in at the cache to drop off the Castorfiber as part of his great Australian adventure. He was pretty happy as there was a fellow North American there along with plenty of Australian animals as well.
