Third find today in this series. Once again a good sized cache, just had to think about how to access it. It's hay cutting day across the road so some stealth needed. TFTC farmer brown and postITgirl10.

A Sunday drive with the Muggle Wife up north of Kapunda and surrounds. Her interest was the wildlife and stopping at sacred sites and other points of interest to read plaques and enjoy the scenery. Mr Adder also admired the abundance of accompaniments to roast potatoes and gravy.

All caches were in good condition unless noted otherwise.

Another quickish find of a dry and safe prize.

Thank you for the cache farmer--brown Find Number 9847 on 10/07/2022

After a freezing night we headed out early with iluvtrekking to explore the surrounding rural areas - our kind of caching. Awkward spot to park but stunning views. Thanks farmer-brown.
 
06-Jul-22
Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.
It was a freezing morning in the Barossa but the sun is shining and the day is warming up nicely, perfect for caching. TFTC.
 
10-Jun-22
Found with the jams crew on our way to Clare for the JLWE. TFTC
 
10-Jun-22
I swear i have found these before but never logged it. quick find.
The JAMS team (( JJ52, Allister W, Mogni, and sir_spectre ) plus TallBikeStan for this trip ) are headed off to the 20 th JuneLongWeekend Event in Clare. As you would expect extension poles, blow up kayaks, waders and ladders are in the car. I am sure every one else takes 11 hours to reach Clare from Adelaide, i am also sure via Burra is the logical to Clare . There was many photos taken of the fun times we had, even involving a ladder in the creek and of course many dirt roads ventured down. All caches for the weekend where stamped as JAMS and some more caches where placed on our travels. The missing JAMS member Michells&hound joined us in our B&B in Clare but didn't join with us for the JLWE game. The weather slowly got better over the weekend. It's good to see some gadget and creative caches around Clare that are permeant and not temp game caches.

Found out on Geo day as jams
 
22-Apr-22
Today we enjoyed caching along the Worlds End Highway through Robertstown and into the Worlds End Gorge. After completing those caches we then continued to Burra to do the Lab cache and a couple of multis that have been published since we were there last.

Many thanks for the hide farmer--brown

Eudunda trip with the geo-pup, day 4, Eudunda to Robertstown

11-Jun-21
Found the hardest possible route to GZ (as usual), but after finding a clearer place to cross we soon had our hands on the cache and exited by the logical easy path.
Caching today with Tweety2 as we work our way towards Langhorne Creek for the JLWE event.
TFTC!

Why do we turn these caches into a higher terrain rating? Quick find once all obstacles were navigated. TFTC.
 
28-Jan-21
I did not make it to the early morning CITO but a spur of the moment decision had me meeting up with gridge98 at Mawson Lakes to head up to Eudunda to find some out of the way caches that we both had not found. I left home at 7:30am and returned at 8:30pm after a big day with 49 finds. We did a big loop finishing in Kapunda and I think this was a record for me with the number of multis found in a day. Cool

A quick find here as we completed some of this series. Big Grin

Thanks for the cache farmer--brown. Smile
 
28-Jan-21
Quick stop here today on our way past
Cache and contents are all good

After an early morning CITO on Anstey Hill, I met up with JJ52 to go caching for the day. With not much of a plan other than to cache around Eudunda for the day. We went from cache to cache finding 49 caches for the day and ending up in Kapunda after a big loop. A lot of middle of no where/back roads with 2 brown snakes spotted on our journey.

Thanks for the cache

As we headed from Burra today we travelled down this highway with the interesting name and grabbed a few caches that weren't too far off the road.
Despite a local in Robertstown telling us that the area had only had 1 1/2 inches of rain all year the road to this one sure looked muddy. We parked the van at the corner and after walking a short distance stepped over the rusty wire fence to GZ. Spotted this one as we approached.
Thanks.

Yet another Puzzled Puzzler's Tuesday caching adventure. Cool Oh dear..we are a little light on for crew today. Just me and Mrs. SA Sewer rats.Twisted 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. Surprised
Before we knew it we had called in and found this cache too. Smile Albeit I went down the embankment and then up again and got needlessly pricked by the thorn bush. [B)]

**Thanks farmer--brown for this cache. ** Big Grin

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.
Hmm Nick is still missing. But we found the cache.
This one gave Mrs Rat 9 months of unloved time. Tftc

A couple of days out from the SA Mega and I was on a run around the area grabbing a few caches. No real problems with any of them and the ones I attempted were in good shape. I think I will need another week to make any sort of dent in the numbers around here though......

Thanks for this one......

Sorry farmer--brown for the generic log but I'm trying to catch up on my logging, I currently have over 1000 to log before hitting some powertrails in the US after the block party next week. As always I enjoy the hunt whether I'm solo or with some of my caching or muggle friends. Thanks to those who have accompanied me to make the day more pleasurable and many thanks farmer--brown for placing this cache.

I had a BIG panic session before finding this cache. I turned on the GPSr at Roberstown expecting to see a number of caches to the south, despite trying a number of times nothing would come up. I considered my options while cycling down the road and eventually decided to call a friend. This friend came through with some useful numbers.

As it turns out I was within 150m of this cache when I stopped, you get lucky sometimes.

One of 89 finds on the Bicycle SA 2012 Annual Tour.

Thanks for the cache farmer--brown.
