Warm day out collecting some geos. TFTC

Glorious Autumn weather had us boiling the billy in the beautiful Colin Thiele gardens in Eudunda for morning tea and cooking a delicious BBQ at Burra Gorge in the Worlds End Conservation Park for our lunch.During our travels we saw kangas, emus and several goats and thoroughly enjoyed the scenery in the Hallelujah Hills and along the ridge tops.Many thanks for the hide mabar

Cool

So we had to take Bella home and if you are going to drive 3 hours north you might as well turn it into a caching adventure. We were in the 4WD so I got to choose some interesting tracks for Wayne to play on. Any caches that needed some attention got it.Thanks to mabar from mogni .

You don't see metal tins much more as cache containers. Nice views from gz. Driving the back roads. Quick find.Found with Mogni. This was a very,very last minute trip.I found out that i had to be in the " clare region " the next day by lunch the next day on muggle business. After that business was over i headed up to jamestown to get a 2001 cache via any adventure labs or caches i haven't found before staying in a B& B in Penworthm. Now it was time to start heading home via dirt roads to Burra for the new Adventure lab and then down every dirt road/track with caches on it and the odd track that needed the hubs locked on the ute. If the cache was broken/eaten/smashed it was replaced with a new container and if the log sheet was wet it was replaced and if the log was full or almost full extra log sheets were added to the cache.

Headed down to the Towitta - Sedan area for a couple days caching. Day 2 started doing the Fruit Loop series, until continualness heavy rain come down. Slowly headed back along Murraylands Road to nearly Morgan before it stopped raining. There were many section of the road under water. All caches were in good condition unless mention in log. TFTCFound fairly quickly.

A bit of a rough drive up here but a great view over the valley once at GZ, cache found and is all good

Today after my own two events in the city I decided to head away for a night of camping, caching along the way mainly focusing on caches yet to be found around the Goyder LGA, by the days end I found myself camped up in Caroona Creek Comservation Park. A great day out enjoying the SA country side and found around 60 caches

Thanks for the cache

That one was super fun to find- we went in the dark for extra kicks

I did not lick them

A lot of fun today driving around this beautiful area. TFTC

Found with SupaOrange and Csaba! Support for the E2E11 Heysen Crew. Turtle Out

Heysen Trail E2E11 support. Caching with SupaOrange and SupaTurtle. Thanks

Yet another Puzzled Puzzler's Tuesday caching adventure. Oh dear..we are a little light on for crew today. Just me and Mrs. SA Sewer rats. Never mind..we have a plan to find some unloved caches and get Rat qualified for an unloved challenge we want to do later in year. [8)]
The target caches were all up above Robertstown, so of course we took the long way, detouring to some unfound caches along a circuitous route. Before we knew it we were having a late lunch in Robertstown before we finally set about looking for these unloved caches. [8)]
This one took a little while but we soon had the cache in hand. Took a bit of effort to get the now rusted shut lid off but with a bit of effort we had our names in the log book. No to close the bloody thing!

**Thanks mabar for this cache. **

Brisal5 and Mrs SA Sewer Rat set on a lovely sunny day of caching.
WE had to targets for the day.
One was to get Mrs Rat to Qualify for Unloved cache Challenge in Victoria.
The second was to get her to the 28 caches to get her last Hidden Creature.
By end of the day Mrs rat was 4 short for Hidden Creature, and qualified for the VIC challenge.
Yay some more unloved time. Getting closer to my goal.
A quickish find for us today. Tftc

Heading north from home today to convert some unfounds to founds and explore some backroads. The lid had to be persueded to open and the contents were in good order..TFTC

Found It!
I do wonder what the guy driving the tractor nearby (still seeding in mid June to?) thought when he saw my little car drive up this 4WD track and then come back out 10mins later...
TFTC

Chrispy89 was holding the Pub Lunch In the Sticks, so firesafe, Homeysuckers, Burton's, SA Sewer Rats and I were out for the day
Burton's and SA Sewer Rats left us at Clare at about 10pm on the way home while the rest of our group continued caching until about 3am, just because we could
All up, I locus cache'd 69 caches with a smiley result and 2 with DNF's and attended a great event too

Hmmm, where are most caches hidden, even those full of sticker lickers[?]
Thankfully, there were no real sticker lickers around here today, so no fines had to be paid!

TNLN. SL. TFTC mabar

On a Big day out with Firesafe and Locus meeting up wit the Burtons sewer rats and oothers at an event in the sticks.

This was a big day starting at 7:00 am and going through to 4:30 am on Sunday morning. A group of us headed north for the Pub Lunch in the Sticks, caching our way up and back with 65 finds for the day.

Quick find and sign. TFTC.

Loved our travels today

I'm not sure about the cache name, but the location was great. Awesome spot. TFTC.

Easy find, glad the snake didn't hang around after shedding his skin, TFTC

No extra stickers today but a great drive through this country at this time of year. The crops are being sewn and hopefully a bumper year ahead.
Cheers from the Posspet Boys

thanks for the find. Was worried about the snake skin lying next to cache but no sign of actual snake

Another good drive up the track to GZ, just a few minor ruts to lookout for. Its been a while since this one was last found (almost 6mths) and we've had alot of rain over that period. Cache & logbook all good. SL TNLN
The views where so good we stopped for lunch and admired the views all around. TFTC

Love these hill, especially when its been raining all day and the previous night,tftc

No stickers for swaps today,great views all along these ranges.tftc sl

found at 1252 one of 36 for the day! tftc

We parked near gz and headed off for a nice quick find , we had no sticker with us so took nothing left nothing. The view was great, the sun was shining so we decided that this was the perfect place to make lunch not realizing we would have a few thousand uninvited but very friendly flies that were about to join us.
Thanks mabar for the cache

Found on a lovely day for caching. The AWD came up the east side with no problems. No stickers with me, though, thanks mabar.

TNLN. Geo Boy and Geo Mum off to the cache while others out for a comfort stop in the pouring rain. Slippery in from the east. TFTC

Oh no! I got rid of all our stickers before finding this cache, so TNLN

Easy approach from the East and a quick find. TFTC

Yes, it is a little rough from the east and the recent rain made it a little more interesting in the 2WD but drove all the way to the cache. What a briliant location, fantastic views over a very green countryside. . TNLNSL

Found by Mary & David at 1720. Even better views here. Beautiful time of the evening and the shadows are wonderful. A large kangaroo nearby was good Karma too. Plenty of stickers left for the little ones. Our thanks as always to mabar.

Took a walk up the hill for my health, great view thanks for the cache
Cheers

Coongie 09 Trip.6. Another gooey hillside in the light rain this afternoon. The clouds are closing in, so not as much to see as from the last hill. Thanks.

Another great location at almost 500sqm above sea level. Wonderful views over the surrounding valley. Could have set up camp here!

Sadly no stickers to swap, hence TNLNSL. TFTC, Cheers, Rav 4 Raiders

Couldn't resist visiting again as we passed. Was surprised to see no-one had been there since we were there last, but its a bit off the beaten track!!

Found it today. swapped a sticker for a sticker. Nice spot. TFTc

Just love these out of the way places, make for an easy find!

Didn't have any stickers on us today, so dropped in a TB instead. TFTC

Hmmmm, a sticker licker means something else to me – but I digress . Auzee found it while I was busy untangling myself from the car. Swapped a sticker sheet for a sticker sheet. Great views and nice to see water in the dam. Thanks mabar.

Thanks mabar

10 of 21 found with 1 DNF for the day

Dashed in dashed off. I could feel a kama experience coming on.

Didn't even have to get out of the car for this one - the miniature brat boy was out the door and had cache in hand in a flash - TFTC

Road not too bad today. I'd hate to do it in the wet. TFTC

A stunning view and a nice, cool morning breeze to begin our third day of our caching jaunt in the mid-north.

Thanks for the cache mabar.

#1 of 29 FTD.

What i find strange is that on a track that you wouldn't call a main road, i always seem to come across traffic...???

A very pretty spot to look at how green was my valley. Both valleys as well. That is a pretty big rock out there in the paddock.

Drove up here, got out into the hot wind, found the cache, and then watched the many willy willys dancing across the plains in the heat. No stickers on us, but left a temporary tattoo instead, thanks mabar.

Didn't see the dams, didn't see anything!! - it was pitch dark by the time we got to this one so did our first cache by torchlight (or should I say by mobile phone light - the torch of course had a flat battery!) Will have to return in the daylight - looks like a lovely spot. Took some stickers geokid fell in love with and left 2 packets stickers. TFTC
