As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been longer than 28 days since the last reviewer note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 28 days), just contact us (by email) once the cache is in place, and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Unfortunately China did not grok the size of the rock, and sent me small pieces of plastic that were not small enough. A new order will be placed shortly and hopefully we will be grokking again soon.
 
19-Feb-15
Lots of people have grokked this rock, so much so that the cache has gone off the clock. Offline until I can reestablish a mutual understanding.
 
26-Jan-15
No joy today, and we had 3 sets of eyes
 
30-Dec-14
I have been to this cache before and it does need replacing as I went there today and there was no cache to be found.
 
27-Dec-14
Pretty sure we were looking around where it is but even six of us could not find it
 
09-Dec-14
We "grokked" the rock, but turned up empty handed today. There was evidence of much other "grokking" at the 8 o'clock zone, but we weren't successful.
 
26-Nov-14
Found it 17:52, using Locus Map Pro.
After a short looking around we found the cache.
Nice done.
Thank you for the Cache and kind regards from the Martinsbande from Germany!

Checked this one out on the laptop and went to check it out today using the phone. Didn't "show up" and the GPS had us in the Rotunda!!! Later walking around it couldn't get us anywhere near where we were - guess its not to good in the city. Sad
 
23-Nov-14
Pretty confident I found the spot but nothing there today
 
20-Nov-14
It was a rainy day today so perfect weather without muggles. The cache had a little spider net camp. Easy catch. TFTC Wink
 
15-Nov-14
Just been to pixar and geoboy went straight to it!
 
14-Nov-14
very impressed with the hide on this one. not too many muggles at night on this one, just a few nosey security guards. took about 10 minutes to find. great camo. tftc trigg-a-nomics
 
12-Nov-14
All back and ready for a new season!
 
08-Nov-14
The rock grokked the cache so much it stole all the camo! Offline until I can restore it.
 
06-Nov-14
Logbook totally wet and cut. Nevertheless I could put my name. Nice hide but even difficult to grab after midnight. TFTC Cool

Loogbook wet. It would need a different type of container.
 
03-Nov-14
Found with the help of Crisi, Tess, Janini and Mary Loo!!!
 
02-Nov-14
The logbook is wet. It's impossible to write on it.
 
02-Nov-14
I post photo of my hand to prove that I found it because it's impossible to write on logbook. From Italy!

26-Oct-14
We were here for the "Stones" and had to grab a few Adelaide Caches. Another easy find for Knight #1 and #2. Thanks for the cache. From Tassie.
 
25-Oct-14
Easy find before going to sit outside and listen to the Rolling Stones. Lots of muggles at gz but we didn't make it seem to suspicious. Tftc!
 
23-Oct-14
So small, couldn't pull out the log and soaked into what appears like mush inside the capsule.... Well hidden however, we were convinced it had something to do with the other rock!
 
23-Oct-14
Brilliant hide! However unfortunately too wet so we took a photo instead!
 
19-Oct-14
Found when it was very quiet. TFTC

Seit 2010 gehörte ich zum Team_Germany. Es waren sechs tolle Jahre mit Cache- Erfahrungen fast in aller Welt, wo wir unsere Reiselust und unser Hobby verbinden konnten. Nun geht das Team getrennte Wege und wurde am 19.07.16 ins Archiv geschickt. In diesem Zuge logge ich nun unsere früheren Funde nach, die ich als Team_Germany mit unterzeichnet habe. Genaueres ist in dem jeweiligen Log ja noch nachzulesen. In diesem Sinne auf ein Neues!

All quiet around GZ early this morning. Geokid used the clues and made the find quickly. This a fabulous spot and a great cache. Thanks for bringing us here Trigg-A-Nomics. Visiting from Ballarat, Victoria.
 
27-Sep-14

24-Sep-14
Tftc very busy place even at night. Log basically mush
 
23-Sep-14
Came here with a muggle friend tonight and there seemed to be some kind of kid's concert or something on, schoolkids and parents everywhere! Still, sometimes a crowd is the best kind of cover and before long my muggle friend had made the find. I like to think I was letting him find it.. anyway, TFTC!

Found this one on our way to the moon light festival. But was cancelled due to the rain. Sad So we took the opportunity to find this one. Log was soaked and full so didnt manage to put our names on it.
 
03-Sep-14
Oh... even at night time is a real muggle busy area !! It is a clever hide but once I retrieved the cache a peace of the camo fall a part... I put it back as I founded but I think it may need a bit of glue (; TFTC
 
03-Sep-14
The log book is full... sorry I didn't have a replacement. ..
 
31-Aug-14

We headed down to South Australia for a few days of caching, and after grabbing a few days worth of power trails, we decided today to take it pretty easy, and grab a few caches around the Adeaide area. This one was #2 of 30 for the day Smile We were exhausted today, but still managed to tick a few off, and enjoyed finding the caches today, as they were all pretty straight forward Big Grin This one was a sneeky hide, and easily spotted luckily Smile

Third post Adelaide zoo trip find.
Am from Geelong- just here for a w/e getaway.
I sat down to read the cache notes @ GZ, looked down and saw it. It wasn't hidden =[ Hopefully I have replaced it good enough.
Log is full on one side, but there is the other.
Lid is broken but still works, paper isn't wet or anything.
Love the description. Nice one.
Time- 4.50pm.
Took & left nothing.
Cheers & T.F.T.C =]
Safe travels.
Hoppy caching!

Visiting Adelaide on our way to Mannum to board the Murray Princess and had some time to do a bit of Mother's Day geocaching. Finding this hide brought us to a lovely spot along the river. SL; TFTC Smile

Cleaver hide. Found on my way to the footy. TFTC
 
04-May-14
Loved it even if it was pouring with rain nd the coldest day Adelaide had had in 30 years.
 
01-May-14
How to know when to start grokking?!! As the focal point of everywhere we could only hope the behind the scenes muggles were occupied. Not much through traffic but they could sneak up. Saw a window of opportunity, lined up the socks, spotted the cache and grabbed. What a clever little cache, thanks for a favourite Trigg-A-Nomics.
 
26-Apr-14
Found it after bluegolfball missed it! Tftc
 
26-Apr-14
In the area on business and thought I'd do a couple of caches. Nicely done! TFTC
 
26-Apr-14
Quick find after paddle boating, I missed it at first but electric c found it
 
24-Apr-14
Took a bit of searching about before I spotted the nicely camouflaged hide. Luckily no muggle problems to worry about today. Thanks!
 
23-Apr-14
I could see the rock from my perch high above GZ, sitting on the canyon floor.
After a long and circuitous trek around the parched canyon rim, I reached the trail to the floor where the river of traffic flowed past the rock Smile

Midmorning and the sun was blazing down creating stifling heat.
I hoped I would not be Grokking for too long [:o]
A spring was bubbling from under one rock that I Grokked, but the water needed treating before drinking !!

Fifteen minutes and I retreated to a shady spot to regroup and read the cache notes again.
A constant flow of muggles had been wandering past, hampering my search.
There is some sort of cave system dug into the walls of the canyon, and signs of habitation within [:o]
I had a look through one portal, and there seems to be a cavernous cave that is used to store wheeled vehicles.

Back to the Grokking ... Razz
Another lap of the rock and there was something that when poked, moved.
It took a few minutes to wiggle the cache out of the crevice, but at last I had me name in the logbook Smile

TFTC in the urban landscape.
