Yay good hide...

We had fun balancing

Out on Thursday weekly walk with friends. We sat nearby to have a break after quite a long walk. Found quickly, signed & replaced. Log is damp. Tftc

Quick easy find while we were walking and exploring the area: TFTC

Contrary to my initial thoughts, gymnasts are not the intended audience for this cache. Once at GZ it was a quick find.The cache was not fully sealed, and the contents are damp.TFTC(I did try to traverse the terrain and emerged unscathed)

Big C found with L today spending some quality time caching on International Geocaching Day!TFTC!

Loved it!

Thanks for the fun! Great hiding spot and not too easy. No need to be a daredevil for this one.

Quick find

Found it. Not too hard

Cool to go under the pedestrian underpasses of a road I have driven over the top of so many times on the walk here from the north.

Cool to see signatures from 15 years ago. Well done. Left a $1 in it for the next hunter

Found after a quick visit to the nearby broken wrist clinic Was initially concerned given the recent lack of finds, but it was in the first place we looked, all safe and dry. Great to see the original log book still in place.TFTC

After 4 hours, did not find anything

Doggo helped sniffed it out. Eventually found it.

Nice, quiet place for a walk and a smiley!
TFTC! x

Unable to find it
It was at night but searched high and low
Walked across the drain but no success

Quick stop here on the way home, cache is all good

Today I headed south with the mountain bike in the car to do a few caches around ohalloran hill.

Thanks for the cache

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location.
(HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do.

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

Devilish

Brilliant and Clever

I like it

Another one off the list

TFTC, a nice quick find

Found 14/07/2021

Found while in the area for a meeting

2nd of the morning TFTC

Now staying in Brighton for a few days we headed out with a very large list of caches to be attempted but for varying reasons we left later than planned. Alas we are a bit out of practice with urban caching and these took us far longer than anticipated so we only got about halfway through the list. Means we have a list ready for another day. [:o)] Its pretty challenging trying to do stages of AdLabs whilst also doing the normal caches.

Found, TFTC

This evening, I thought I would find a few geocaches around Flinders University, and then if time/daylight permitted, continue my walk/jog south into Sturt Gorge. As an Adelaide University student, I always forget about how scenic Flinders is, and its nearby bush and rural setting. I just wish I had brought my mountain bike through here. After a nice adventure the gorge, I concluded the evening with a few driveby caches within the vicinity. A nice sunny afternoon and balmy evening to be out and about.

It was good to see a bit of water flowing in the Sturt River nearby, so I made sure to explore the area here, before turning my attention to the cache. This took a few minutes of wandering around nearby, looking in various spots for the cache, but in the end, I found it in a logical spot. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks JENKOZ for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

G+C TFTC

Found with Chelsea!

looked around for a long time but no luck, may just be overgrown right now

We moved to a house with a creek across the road when I was 8, and I thought it was the best thing ever. Nice to see the Sturt flowing today, and the water looks really clean too. Thanks for this cache!

Ttfc covered in ants though

Well placed cache but very wet

Fairly easy but very wet log

I hate putting my hand in long grass. But got it in the end. Cache needs maintenance as log is very wet

Approached from the wrong side whoops, didn't have a pen so took photo. Will come back to sign log when wifey comes out for this one. Log is saturated still. TFTC

Thanks Jenkoz for this hide. Tried with feet but resulted in nothing. Got a strong lock and tried with hands. Right on the coords. Log is wet but was able to sign it.

Found while out after traditionals in and around the Bedford Park area.
Log here is quite damp.
Thanks jenkoz for the cache

Quick find after searching for a long time for another one with now luck! TFTC
Log book is wet, it will need replacing. Unfortunately I didn’t have a spare with me

#18... dont do this on a hot day... (look out for SsSss's..)
It's soppin wet... tftc

Our usual Wednesday was changed to a Thursday due to the weather. The usual crew arranged to meet the starfish in Woodcroft to gain a few smileys down south but that plan was aborted with the Starfish unable to join us. This left the Adder and the Rat to change our plans and pick up a few previous DNF's and others that were scattered away from our previously planned routes.

The Rat found the hide where the Adder had previously searched, He was just cache blind. The container was full of water so we emptied and dried it the best we could.

TFTC

It was time for the Puzzled Puzzlers to go a wandering.
The Rat and the Adder went caching .
The Rat scurried around where the Adder had slithered.
Mrs Rat quickly had the cache in her paws. Tftc

Found with my dad Rod81w awoke ago, still catching up on my logs as I have my own account now

TFTC

Wet shoes after searching through the long wet grass, but found it finally. Good hide. TFTC JENKOZ

Had to bring one of the boys down to Flinder's Medical Centre to see a doc. Didn't want me there so suggested I go and grab a few caches. Didn't have to ask twice so off I headed to grab some that I had missed in my last walk through O'Halloran Hill Recreation Park. That done it was time to have the comfort of an air conditioned geomobile and do drive-bys.

Woo hoo, I walked all the way to the cache from the eastern side! [:o)] Then I foiund the cache.

**Thanks jenkoz for this cache. **

This was a bonus cache for us tonight. We were walking the hound and went on a different walk to normal we found ourselves exploring underneath the new south road. We decided to continue on as the cache was so close but then found ourselves on the wrong side of the creek. Geohusband went over and made the find. Geohound dithered around trying to psych himself to make the final leap across the creek but found himself stranded on a rock in the middle. TFTC we enjoyed our walk.

A quick find of a well hidden cache . I remember walking these when i was a kid... luckily not once did i fall

SL at 10:28 on 17/3/18. TFTC JENKOZ

Tftc, dont be tempted to cross the creek.

Sunny arvo find

Tftc

Couldn't find it looked everywhere.

Had this one on my radar for a couple of months, as I'm currently working on the upgrade of South Rd.
Reminds me of growing up as the creek near my Dads also has a pipe spanning it. Caught many tadpoles, frogs and yabbies!
Don't think my folks liked finding them in the bathtub, when they got home.

Love it when your out for a stroll and you find a cache when you're not looking.. (when aren't we geocachers looking to catch a cache?) another one to cross off the list except I was unable to sign the log as it was damp and the pen didn't want to work..
Tftc

CJ saved a bottle top for this one

Well, I followed the linear park from Marion, and due to South road construction was on the wrong side of Sturt creek. I knew I had worn my hiking boots on my morning ride for a good reason. So I found a suitable crossing spot, put my bike on my shoulder and walked across the creek, then a short hunt to the cache. TFTC

After a failed attempt elsewhere, I made a quick fast find in the long grass. Lucky it wasn't a snaky day!
I didn't try to cross the creek, but it was tempting.

All of RailMax on an Adventure Day heading south! Third find of our adventure day. Small swaps for youngest RailMax Thanks for the cache! Lovely walk as well.

I don't know why it has taken me so long to find this cache as I drive past here frequently. [?] Well today after visiting at Flinders I stopped off and found a muggle free park. [^] Had to navigate the long wet grass, but cache was soon found and log signed. Didn't even think of walking across.
Thanks for the cache jenkoz.

Nice quiet little park.
TFTC jenkoz.

Find #1794

Out treasure hunting of a different kind and thought I'd snap this one up whilst nearby. Tftc!

Great hiding spot and hint! We had fun with this one. We used to live around the corner from here, so lots of good memories.

Know the owner of this cache and was keen to find it so I could say I found one of his! Easy find much to my relief. TFTC jenkoz!

Well hid! Got a bit Snakey for the thongs. But was worth the risk

Day 78 of "consecutive days with finds". Cache #1123.

Today I went to Bedford Park for business. After that, I decided to find some caches, since I was in that area.

Not too many people in the park on a Saturday afternoon. A young couple were busy taking care of their crying baby girl, and did not notice me. I quickly identified the hidden spot, and grabbed the cache. Luckily I brought a pair of garden gloves with me. Signed the log book, and placed it back.

Thanks for the cache, jenkoz. Nice hide. I'll try to find other caches in this series next time.

I remember going to this reserve as a kid with my aunt who used to live nearby. TFTC

Thursday 18 February 2016 - a magnificent sunny Summer's morning in the mid twenties. The long grass is always a worry so thx to the person who left a stick in place to retrieve the cache. TFTC.

Nice find! I was about concerned about snakes but fortunately it's safely placed.

found it just to keep run going

The geowife is in for day surgery at the FMC, so an ideal way to fill in a few hours before picking her up. TFTC.

Not found - but the grass is very tall around the pipe!

We didn't give up! Thanks lauzygirl for the encouragement! Our first geocache find!

Forgot to log

I could win an award for most caches found but not logged online. Please forgive this very generic log. If I admired your cache you'll get a favourite point from me and I'll likely come back and edit this log once I've caught up. If this generic log makes you unhappy - delete it. Life's too short to worry over it, I had fun finding your cache either way. Cheers!

A nice easy find - TFTC

SEMIK, Moneydork, muggle partner and I went caching
Meeting at SEMIK's, I suprised Moneydork with some L&P chocolate which I'd brought back from New Zealand for him His face was priceless!
We started out with tea at Casuarina at Marion first [^] then cached while dodging the spasmodic rain that fell as a large storm front moved over the state bringing with it lightning and thunder Sushilord hadn't wanted to get wet so he stayed home, possibly drinking his bottle of L&P from NZ
4 finds for me and as always, lots of laughter and joking!

Last cache for the night and a very quick find here as I followed my GPSr. Sometimes I get lucky
As for getting all the way across, I didn't try as everyone knows that I fall over easily

TNLN. SL. TFTC jenkoz

Very lovely park with plenty of ducklings running around and water still flowing in the creek. Cache a quick find after reading the hint.

Found It!
A quick find and a nice little park. A little girl and her grandpa were doing some growing up nearby!
TFTC

Found it at long last! GPS wasn't agreeing with us and took us on a goose chase around the area! We then thought too hard about it and realised if we hadn't thought about it we would have found it
