Big Fat Brown Log Pewsey Vale, South Australia, Australia
By Team707 and Omocyunn on 14-Jul-11. Waypoint GC304MN

Had a good look but couldnt find anything

Tftc! Needs a bit of attention as it's wet inside tho.

Found while touring around Mt Crawford Forest on the MTB. A nice cool day made for a great time riding around. This cache is one that was found today. An enjoyable stroll along this section of trail. Cheers.

Find #5671 on 19 Apr 2023.
TFTC Team707!

SA’s Leap Year Event - GCA1DNA - Feb 29th, 2024. Keep the date free!

Got very dark. Fun though! Thank you!

Travelling through some dirt back roads to pick up a few caches. A little chilly but the sun is shining so perfect geocaching weather.

I parked on Tower road and then headed off on foot.
Quick find here.

Thanks for the cache Team707 and Omocyunn.

Great spot, needs new note pad

One of three traditional snot too far from home that I’d been saving for a suitable day. The weather is turning cooler, this ridge is a physical challenge for sure, don’t be fooled by the T1:5 rating. Great views, I highly recommend this section of the Heysen Trail.

Thanks Team707.

Easy

Found - hint it is a blue coffee mug

Found on an evening hike. Nice area and view. TFTC

Great. Thank you.

The last one in the series and this one didn’t take very long to find, Davidwazza made the find here, cache is okay.
Today I met up with Davidwazza at Mt Crawford to complete some caches that required a bike, we particularly focused on the area around the Big fat series. After having lunch I was spent and decided to head home and find a few caches along my way. All up 30 finds for the day.

Thanks for the cache

Today, gridge98 and I headed east to Mount Crawford with our bikes. I had a few targets that I had wanted to get to today, but as always, I had more targets and less time to do all of them. Our first cluster of caches was aimed at *SFE Challenge - Milestone 10,000 finds* with the *Big Fat* geocaches nearby as a loop. That was some solid riding up/down the hills, and a few geocaches were time consuming due to their hide types. After a quick Williamstown bakery lunch, we returned to another section in Mount Crawford, and concentrated on the Rocky Paddock campground area with a number of *Animal Facts* geocaches found. Gridge98 departed home, but I had another couple of rides up Tower Hill Track, and also around Rocky Paddock along Gordon Road. I completed the day with a short walk up Mount Crawford boardwalk, and a few miscellaneous finds on my return home. It was a brisk day with cold winds and a few intermittent drizzles, but otherwise not a bad day to be on the bike.

This was a quick find at this location, and appeared to confirm the usual cache container that we had seen in a few other *Big Fat* previous caches. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Team707 and Omocyunn for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Found It!
After a fail at the previous two, it was nice to have a quick find here! Nice little spot I've never been to before!
TFTC

I found it!

Quick find. Tftc.

Couldn't find it

Eventually found after removing camo, signed log

Went to find a cache after work.
Had a walk at sunset, found a handful!
Getting darker now, but found the log easy enough by torchlight.
A closer inspection soon came up with the right mojo
Thanks for placing this one out there Team707

Continued along on this nice walk... Trail more prominent at this section...
A quick find.

This cache was found using a Garmin Montana 650t. Waypoints and paperless geocaching downloaded via GSAK 8.

Still leisurely touring South Australia after the Mega

After a late night enjoying our campfire at our camp at Mt Crawford Mr Felix decided he wanted to don his boots and go hiking today to tackle some caches along the high points of the Heysen trail!

Mrs Felix obliged by being the 'duty' driver for the days exercise.

During this late afternoon walk Mr Felix saw several large kangaroos, and a very healthy fox, and crossed 4 creek crossings on a great afternoon trek through the mud after the recent rains.

TFTC Team707

Headed out with earthlight and the x trailers to get some of these of the to do list, was a fantastic walk through here with some awesome scenic vantage spots, the weather is great today so this made our lives a bit easier, would be tricky on a hot day, didn't really see much wildlife except for 1 big male roo, we will be back to finish of the ones we missed today. TFTC

Found while out with 3LG and Earthlight today
Enjoying the views and the hunt of the caches but definately the knees are not enjoying the hike
Still another cache further along the track
tftc

Another cache found on this great walk and series.
Found with 3LG and the x-trailers.
Thanks for the exercise.

Was out for a bit of a hike with Darknstormy today The weather was very chilly to start with but eventually we warmed up as we walked on!
Apparently i need to gain some fitness as i nearly didnt make it up the first hill :O been a long time between hill climbs and i felt it today but we got caches so all the pain was worth it

Thanks team707 for the cache and the walk

Miss GG and I decided to take a bit of a hike in the forest, so we looked for a few caches we could do as well.

As we looked around we saw this little trail, the terrain didn't look to bad so we thought perfect..

Yeah the terrain might be OK when you get here.. but how about the journey to it.. def a 3 not 2

Thanks for the walk Team707 Beautiful views up here... really cant wait to come out this way again and do a few more

Geohubby and I had spotted this nice looking series in the Warren Conservation Park and felt that attempting the series would be a great way to get some much needed exercise

After parking near the schoolhouse and finding another nearby cache this was our first find of the series. Haven't seen this type of container used before....a great idea for a nice dry cache.

Many thanks for the hide Team707[^]

This one took a while to find, GPS this way then that way many logs to search.

Our 8th for the day.

Getting weary tramping through the forrest but needed to do the last two along the trail. Thanks for bringing me up here. It was windy but the rain had stopped and the sun was shining and there were some beautiful views.

Well it certainly is a big fat brown log! Loads of possible hiding places but I soon came up with the goods. Thanks Team707

This took a while to find, as I didn't have my thing that goes ding when there's Stuff with me.

The Dr ? and Companion.

Found on a walk with the Geoschnauzer and his mate "Dave". First in the series TFTC

Now we are back to finish the rest of the big fat series on a lovely sunny summers day with SA4agers. Took the TB and left a Geocoin. thanks Team707 for the cache.

Rustic Relics
(Budgie)

A couple of weekends ago we spent a nice sunny Sunday afternoon with Rustic Relics picking up a few of the caches in this series. We returned with Rustic Relics today to complete the series on what turned out to be another nice sunny day, although somewhat smoke hazed to start off with. Thanks for bringing us to this great section of the Heysen Team707!

This is my number 12, sorry Jonno wasn't here today - next time. TFTC Mr C. Dropped off one of my TB - Africa.

Found at 10:33 with Olga. Number two find after staying overnight at the old school house. A nice walk so far.

Found this big fat brown log while on a family caching walk. TFTC

Found with Eden Hills Scouts on 06/10/2012. Thanks for the fun.

Found while out and about with Kymbo & Co. Thanks for the cache.

NinjaPete and Lainy

Found by the Eden Hills Scouts. Rhiannon traded mosquito band for lanyard. Thx heaps.

Nice weather for a walk. Took toy cannon, left reflector. TFTC.

Nice walk with views, but I was disappointed that the cache container did not contain the contents it was made for, would have loved one as we sat and enjoyed the location.

Easy find while out riding the Big Fat series.
TFTC!

Start of a good walk.

First find of the BF series...

Great trail and it's fantastic that Team707 has placed a trail of caches along it. These peaks are a treat and the views of the surround country-side are fabulous.

Thanks for the Cache, Team707.

[blue]Started Hike at 13:50[/blue]

Parked the car on by the first big bend on Blockers road and entered the Heysen trail by the gate and headed up the hill.

Headed for the brown log.
Interesting container when I found it.
Just had to circle a bit.

[blue]14:10 Cache found[/blue]

Out doing a few caches by bike this morning....weather was nice, but should have brought a bike with gears! Single speeding on some of these hills was tough!

Nice part of the forrest that we havent explored yet.

TFTC!

Clever use of one of these for a cache container. Not what we expected to find. Hope they hold up to weather, etc. Nice day for a walk. Exchanged some small toys. Cheers & TFTC!

YeeeHaaa, a nice easy one to finish off the series. Thanks for the series and thoroughly enjoyed the experiences walking to each cache. TFTC Team707

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First in the series .
Descending from Wirra Wirra Where, this was to be the first of the Big Fat series I was to get. The container was a surprise; I’ve never seen one of them used before. Let’s hope it keeps liquid out better that they keep liquid in [:o].
No swaps.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The last in the series! (Unless you put out some more!!) This is a lovely section of the Heysen Trail, and on the way back we saw some native orchids which was a pleasant bonus. Have given a favourite point for all the caches in this series, not so much for the caches themselves but for the location and the walk. All together our walking tally was just over 12kms. That justified eating the hand made chocolates we ate along the way! Thanks so much for placing these caches and giving us the motivation to get out into the great outdoors.

A big fat Zero. That is how many Big Fat caches we now have left to find .

This has been a most enjoyable series of caches with something for everyone; Mr and Mrs TiedyeSmileys had the pleasure of finding caches in a wonderful setting, the geomutt had the privilege of some great walks and the geoson managed to clock up quite a few hours driving in his log book for his license .

It was also great to bump into SushiLord on the trail after we finished these.

Took TB

TFTC

A relatively easy find to finish the day.

yet another tin find,but thats ok cause its been a good arvo
TFTC

sorry forgot to tell you that we put in WTHC41 TB here and picked up TC

The first (or last) in a great new series - love the names

Our first in the 'Big Fat' series this morning and we managed to get the Bronze podium !
