Fallen Soldiers Memorial Trees Rose Park, South Australia, Australia
By Jeffeddy on 21-Dec-11. Waypoint GC394ZZ

Solved some time ago, back in the area. Needle took us back and forth, but eventually found the right spot. Given it is a terrain 1- wheelchair friendly, we didn't look above our heads. Knowing that what you read is not always what it is, we tippy toed and reached for the prize.

15:52Lunch packed, water on board, ready for our final day of caching with Suscoe before heading back to Victoria. It was interesting to follow the trail of memorial trees.Our thanks to 'Jeffeddy' for adding this cache to the gameboard.37887*This log composed and published using Geocaching Swiss Army Knife (GSAK).*

Completed this terrific multi on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.Gathered all the relevant info and then made a quick find at GZ.What a beautiful area this is for a tribute to our fallen heroes.FP awarded!TFTC!

I enjoyed walking down this beautiful avenue of trees and finding the necessary information.Australia has done a great job with war memorials. Gets a bit solemn though, you can't help but reflect on the people who's names are on those plaques. This was a great cache.As for GZ, there is a great big black spider occupying the hide. Be careful future finders!It was great to see the original log from 2011 still in the cache.TFTC

Found. Took a bit of time getting all the clues together, i had also misunderstood one of them- once corrected, the GZ looked pretty good. Had to clear away a lot of spiderwebs but found quicklyThank you for another cache to add to the ZZ challenge!

Afternoon exploring Norwood/Rose Park.Lovely long walk along the shady boulevard... challenging D2!Collected the numbers and walked to GZ.Quick find after clearing the cobwebs!TFTC

An easy multi in a stunning area of Adelaide.
Gets a favourite point from me in honour of those remembered here
TFTC

With a military background and military ancestors both B & J are interested in these memorials. So sad but important to remember.

I took a nice walk through leafy Rose Park in the glorious sunshine. All caches found without too many troubles.

I gathered the info and after a couple recalculations, I finally came up with some good looking coordinates.

After a short walk the cache was found tucked away behind a mess of spider webs. The cache is otherwise in good condition.

Thanks for the cache Jeffeddy.

It was relaxing to amble in the reserve. Thanks Jeffeddy.

Thank you for a great cache. Got the info yesterday and came home and worked it all out. And straight onto it this morning.

After the early birds event near by I headed to this multi. I tried doing the multi ages ago but had a few issues, with some talk about it at the event I decided to head to find it straight after. The cache was easily found and is all good
TFTC

After a nearby breakfast event I was helped with this one by a previous finder after chatting about it. This is a great memorial to all the fallen soldiers along a very fitting avenue...great history. [^]
Cache was found in an appropriate spot.
Thanks for the cache Jeffeddy.

This evening, I headed out for a few hours towards Adelaide's eastern suburbs, targeting a select few geocaches.

A lovely avenue, and a good chance to examine the various plaques and sights. I made the walk, and soon had a set of coordinates for GZ. I then walked back to my car, and made the short drive to GZ. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Jeffeddy for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Having compiled a paper list of caches to be found today on my Deadly Treadly {Needing to keep the unwanted calories at bay } i wandered out east to this Multi i have seen so many times but never found the time to do [:o] [what a slacker hey?]

Found the 1st plaque and i was underway Info gathering was going smooth and i began to gather numbers needed for the letters
Placed the bike down and wandered here then there and back again lol.

(Do this Multi if you wanna walk off lunch or tea on a warm day )

I was enjoying myself in this lovely shady area [^] it made for a pleasant stroll on such a warm day.

I made sure i was mentally switched-on re: the info gather coz i didn't want to muck it up [:o]

Finally got to the last part for L&M and it all checked out nicely coz the cache was exactly where the solved co-ords took me [^]
Found in the 1st place i looked... a lover of that, i am

This one easily earns a Favourite Point for it's Subject matter and the pleasant shady walk It was an all-round enjoyable experience

The cache and contents are in A1 condition.

Trekked back and forth for the info for this cache in the 37 degree heat! A wonderful spot though; lush and shady with a whole lot of history. Thank you for bringing us here. TFTC! Sabo + JJ

Such a beautiful day for a bike ride and finding some caches.
TFTC Keep smiling

This was a great mystery to crack with my six yo and help share some history with him along the way. TFTC!

Good cache. Took a loooooong time . Liked walking through this beautiful place. TFTC

Very enjoyable / thx

This multi took me s bit longer than I had anticipated as I had some trouble getting the numbers right. It was good to be able to finally complete it today.

Thanks Jeffeddy for the cache.

thank you jeffedy for this amazing geocache me and my family really enjoyed it

I ran the numbers on this one quite some time ago, and had the waypoint stored for future use. Yesterday I had to run herself to a job interview in the city and decided there was enough time to dash on out for this one. After negotiating the Britannia roundabouts during peak hour I stopped at the designated location, which seemed rather weird. I did a quick check and found my maths was dodgy on one number, and swung around 200 metres to the next main road south. As predicted, a lovely web covering the hole, and a handy device laying by to address the situation. Cache in good condition, so was the log. Thanks Jeffeddy for a great multi. FP for you.

Started looking at this last week, but couldn't come up with a viable set of numbers . Checked things at home and realised we'd made a couple of simple mistakes [B)], so were able to go straight to GZ today .
The spiders have been busy here and their webs looked like something out of an Indiana Jones movie .
TNLNSL.
Thanks Jeffeddy.

On our way home from our trip to the North we decided to stop off and do this multi in our quest to get our multi stats up. Rex loved the walk and inspecting the holes in every tree. Once we realized we only had to check the big plaques rather than every single tree our job became easier. We found the final in a suitable spot. Great multi on an nice quiet street in an upmarket part of town TFTC.

Found with GoodLook today. What a great multi cache to do, well done, I really enjoyed it.

Thank you for placing this geocache.

I have started this multi on a number of occasions since I began caching, but today I finally finished it with with help from TheDame.

Love this area and this multi. A fav point from me.

Found/solved on route to pick up a kayak out north

Found with hevwalker on our way to tonights Geocaching Film Event. Thanks Jeffeddy for an interesting multi!!

Found with CPwanderer this afternoon before heading to the GIFF event tonight...
An interesting multi...
Thanks Jeffeddy

It is interesting to see that nearly all of the once small communities which now comprise greater Adelaide had their own memorials to those who served their country in World War II. It probably reflects the much stronger small community focus that existed at the time than now. Once we got ourselves oriented, data collection was straightforward. Accurate coordinates led to a quick find of the cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Jeffeddy for an interesting multi in a very significant area.

Worked out and found by The Boofs TFTC. Some nice history here.

A nice day for a nice little walk. Got to the final location and being not as tall as some others had to stick my hand in without being able to see what was in there, luckily all that I pulled out was the cache.

So I have come to Adelaide for a geocaching weekend of fun and games. brisal5 was driving around finding some of those caches you cant normally grab, or he cant find...
Thanks

I'm not sure why but I seem to search for the hardest way first. Only to later discover the simpler path. Thank you for the walk down the avenue and TFTC

What a great multi! Really enjoyed doing this one in a lovely area. This one took me 3 lunch-hours to do (riding the bike from the city, then only having about 10 mins to get a handful of clues, then ride back), but it got me out and exploring - which is what caching is all about. Managed to get all the details, then calculate the coords correctly and found the cache - signed log - now have another smiley on the map and my face Thanks jeffeddy for the cache.

Once at the listed coordinates the calculations were made and I had some plausible coordinates and I was on my way. Once at gz a quick find was made and the log signed.
tftc

Awesome multi-cache found with joeldepashhhh

We had originally completed most of the sections however, our final assembly of the coordinates was off. We re-worked it again and as math is not our strong suit, hoped it was correct. Geomum reached the GZ and was glad that 6'5" giant Geoson was with her otherwise she wouldn't have been able to sign the log! Thanks for the cache!

After an adventurous day in Blackhill conservation park, a very tired and sore band of three cachers ventured on. The Rats and brisal5 slowly made our way over here.
This was the lucky last cache for the day.
it was funny trying to walk whilst being tired and a very sore.
Finally got all the info required,.
A quick find TFTC

Easy little multi. TFTC. 31/03/2016, 11:27 Find #1979

Out caching with Anymules and Locus Cache today before tonight's event. I, personally, love doing multi as they show you information or places that you may walk by on a normal day and not take any notice.
SL TFTC

A sobering walk. Beautiful place to be but mortifying to see how many young men lost their lives needlessly in the Great War. A good one to do on Anzac Day. LEST WE FORGET.
Thank you greatly for the cache.

A good puzzle cache. Not as hard as it looks.

TFTC!

Beautiful day beautiful walk

Thanks for this journey. It takes a while but made a lovely walk along this avenue. With Albeany.

Attended the dawn service on the 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli landings. This cache had been on our radar for months but we didn't have the coordinates quite right. This morning was our opportunity to check our numbers, notice what we had missed, recalculate and make the find. Feels most appropriate to have signed the log on this particular day. TFTC nicpop and Geokid.

In the leadup to Anzac day I had decided that it was time to Do this multi. It is close to work and made for a nice lunchtime stroll. So yesterday was the day. Wandered up the avenue gathering the info but when I mapped the calculated GZ I was in the middle of sometimes lounge. Later on checking the info realised a rookie mistake and the new GZ looked a lot more promising. Called in on the way to work to look. The cache was soon in hand after eliminating several possible promising spots. Interesting though, found some names that could be relatives. Need now to investigate. SL TFTC

TFTC big fella!

Enjoyed this multi. Found with3LG and the x-trailers. TFTC

Always up to a bit of history when working out a multi or locating a cache
Found while caching with Earthlight and 3LG
Tftc took tbs for a visit

Caching with earthlight and The X-Trailers we cached this area today to clean up our unfounds in the area, Didn't take to long to get all the answers we needed and this was a nice multi to do with some great scenery along the way. TFTC

Historical walk close to home I drive past often.
About time I stopped to look around.

#034 With the help of my tall geo-helper. TFTC.

Nice to come back to Burnside while staying at my father's place for few days.
TFTC

After dropping the Rogue off for a unit exam I had a couple of hours to cache.
Time enough for a walk in the sunshine and shade and collect the clues. Than a quick calculation and walk to ....someone's front yard[?] DOH. Back and rechecking and I see the problem. There are two with that Surname. Check initials, change a number and off to GZ across the road from the previous front yard. Bingo. Cache in hand Thanks Jeffeddy.

Found it with vj187 a while ago but had failed to log it. TFTC

Found with 2011*turtle. We were attempting a few multi caches in the area and enjoyed the history and lovely trees here. TFTC

a little bit tricky

Wow, what an amazing Multi! I've had my eye on this one for a while but only managed to get round to attempting this today. Chose to take the long way to finding all the answers as I slowly wandered from beginning to end, in what was a largely empty street. This was probably the saddest cache I have ever done, with the possible exception of a similarly themed cache in the hills, but I'm very glad I took the time to do it. TFTC Jeffeddy!

TFTC found a while back, forgot to log

Finally found it after getting a few numbers and names mixed up! TFTC!

MM+2 are going to make a concerted effort this year to up our number of multicache finds. This was a perfect one to start with. A beautifully warm May day had us wandering through the trees, until we realised there was an easier way of getting the clues. After a nice stroll down the grassy strip we thought we had the final numbers. They were locked into the GPSr and we were off. At our predicted GZ we came to the conclusion that we must have got our sums wrong as it wanted us to go into someones back garden! Fearing a DNF we decided to snare a nearby BoB cache so we didn't miss out filling in a day on our caching calendar. After that we decided to go back to he plaques for one more look. Sure enough, we had mixed up our "Tucker's", so we recalculated and headed back to GZ for a quick find, sign and replace. Thanks for the cache Jeffeddy - we've always been impressed by the memorial statue here.

A pleasant walk during my break in the Clipsal 500 today. At first I was looking at all the trees, then realised there was a more convenient way of finding the info I needed! TFTC

Owl completed the first part of the multi on a day she had time for a lovely leisurely walk (the wrong way) down a tree-lined avenue (collecting the beginnings of 2 other multis on the way!) Today she came back for the finale. A road she has driven down countless times but never bothered to explore properly, despite a keen interest in history. For that alone this deserves a favourite point. The fact that it was a well-constructed and straightforward multi was just icing on the cake (or cache).

A nice little multi while i was in the area. Thought I had made a mistake when I got to GZ because the gps had me pointing into someones front yard, but using logic I found the cache without too much problem. TFTC

Went down the avenue on Sunday for the info. Wanted to do this multi for Remembrance Day. Flowers were laid out at the memorial and finding the cache with the hint was easy. TFTC Cheers

Enjoyed the walk and the trees. TFTC

We completed the first stage of this cache ages ago, but then abandoned the final stage because it was raining.
So it was sort of ironic that we headed out in the rain today to do some caching in this area and finally headed to GZ. Lovely spot and thankfully a quick find while getting quickly saturated. The cache is in good order and nice and dry though!

Good fun with the geokids after school. TFTC.

tb visits

Out for the night doing the locus cache with chrispy89, Honeysucker and Mr Scoobster so that chrispy89 can get some more city caches to help educate him in regards to devilish hides
Love these trees and may the memory of the fallen soldiers long be revered! [^]
TNLN. SL. TFTC Jeffeddy

was out on a night run while in town claiming a few smilieys, tftc

Dad got a splinter

The avenue is a wonderful place for a walk under the shady trees
Thanks to this geocache I found the memorials that explained the numbers under many of the trees too.
With all the numbers fed into the GPS I hopped on the pushbike to finish the tour and find the cache

Was heading to Freddos to make up a heap of log books so grabbed some around his area.

Pleasant walk to grab the cache. TFTC.

It took me a while to work out... Although it wasn't at all where I thought it would be!..OMG

Thanks Jeffeddy for the cache,

Tftc

Lovely area, great multi
A quick find after doing all the work.
Out with Team Waldron on our first twilight run for ages
TFTC Jeffeddy

There's some strange people out this way.

First there was a guy playing guitar in the gutter.

Then there was the couple sitting on a sofa on their median strip in the gloom.

Took us a while to get all the numbers together but we found it in the near dark.

TFTC

Had some time to kill today, so with geokids in tow we went for a walk.
Must admit it wasn't nearly as hard to find the info than I first thought it would be!
We did miss one number, but it wasnt critical, found it on way back to car.
A nice walk amongst the leaves indeed. Kids loved running through them.
This us a great, living memorial for those whom fought and in cases, died for our freedom!
Lest We Forget, Age Will Not Weary them!
Thanks for bringing me back to this magnificient memorial

Found It!
I gave up on my last attempt because I couldn't even find the required trees...
Then today I stumped upon a few will doing another multi and soon enough they were all found and then the cache was found!
TFTC

Liz and Bruce helped with this one. TFTC

We are staying relatively close to this area and so we were able to do this one without any problem. thanks Jeffeddy

69th cache of the day that did not begin until 6.30pm. That is the benefit of modern caching these days. I began this multi on my last visit and I had just 3 more bits of information to string together this evening.
All very quiet in here at 11pm.
Thanks Jeffeddy

Find 1537
Found after marching with the other “Nashos” in Adelaide on Anzac Day 2012.
I saved this multi until today for the opportunity to complete a cache that allowed me to remember those who made the supreme sacrifice and some “Nasho” friends that are no longer with us.
Lest We Forget
Thanks to Jeffeddy for the cache and the memories of the archived GC103VC Do you need a hand, mate? That was previously located in the avenue.
Fine Elsewhere

Found this evening with geo-girl while geo-boy was in a karate class nearby. On the first attempt GZ ended up in someone's longeroom. Turns out we had 2 digits wrong. Attention to detail was the key on re-checking the clues. Once correct coordinates were calculated we headedto the real GZ for the find. Geo-girl found the hiding spot...may havehad some help with retrieval. TFTC

It was a nice balmy evening for a stroll down the Avenue of Honour. Collected the clues and headed off for a rewarding cache find. Thanks Jeffeddy!

A great traditional type multi, a great walk down a avenue of repect enjoyed collecting the info and the maths soon had us a good set of coords and a quick find TFTC

Have had a wonderful afternoon searching this wonderful avenue for all the clues. Sad and haunting - but wonderful for my 10 year old to stop and take some measure of the significance of these trees. Thanks for a lovely afternoon.

Bit of an adventure. A bit sad too. To think all these trees represent a man. TFTC

Thank you for bringing me through this area. My Grandfather would have really appreciated this. TFTC

Needed a break from my Maths assignments, so went out for a cache. Respect to all those here and to the previous cache here. Did the clues in sort of reverse, was good to walk through the whole avenue. Spotted the likely spot for gz from 50m away! and surely enough there it was . It's always nice to have an easy find when you've had to do the calculations for gz. Thanks Jeffeddy

A brilliant memorial and a good old traditional multi - just like they used to make them back in 2002-3 days. I do remember pulling a bloodied hand out from a tree here once. I also remember that some cachers had a rest here in the shelter up the road. DAK and co. Respect.

Thanks to Jeffeddy and clear skies from TeamAstro.

Respect. I used to have a cache at tree 46. The cache is still there. It is just at the bottom of the tree out of reach. Do you need a hand, mate? ( GC103VC) The unique memorial statue is marvelous. Rest, we forget.

Found at 20:50. A nice walk with the dog, a short drive sure to a poorly written digit, a short drive back (I had photographed everything), and a quick find. I think I have been in the house across the road - the owner wrote a book my kids liked when they were little.
It has been busy here today
Nice night for a walk. Thanks.

Yay, a bronze placing for Mr Tardis. It turns out either I'm not good at writing down numbers, or not good at maths - or probably both.

A quick find today after confirming the co-ordinates. Don't know what I did wrong yesterday. Thanks for the multi in such quiet green streets.

Well done Jeffeddy on your first multi... it took us on a beautiful journey up one of the areas most beautiful streets!!!
We all had so much fun looking for the clues.

TFTC!!!

I came out this way this morning hoping to find a virgin log book - there being no finds logged on-line for this cache overnight.

I suffered from the same problem as Tradis Trio, except with a slightly different outcome. Thinking the error could have been in the cache details I called TT to confirm their calculations, it was while on the phone to TT that I realised my mistake and I headed off to find the cache, but alas the log book had markings from the bee lover and Mr S who beat me by almost 12 hours.

These streets are very busy early in the morning with walkers and runners. I'm surprised I didn't see any other cachers in the area.

Thanks for the cache Jeffeddy.
