Never one of my more successful caches so bye.
 
06-Oct-14
This one was still there. I had almost given up and with every passing car, felt as though someone might eventually stop to ask what I was doing. It's near the smaller bottlebrush tree trunk and the mulch has covered it very well indeed. I ended up using a stick to poke & scratch around. It was ant free at the time of signing the logbook.

Another one that we didnt have any luck with.

Burried??? Oh Dear.
 
09-Jul-14
GPS wasn't sure which bush but as it was wet, we didn't try for long, despite the seemingly helpful clue.

Found it but ants friendly
 
26-Apr-14
Another find for the day.
TFTC
 
22-Apr-14
The hint suggested the cache is buried and the tree is infested with ants by the thousands. So although it may be there it was not worth the ant bites that we endured, won't be back for this one.
 
15-Apr-14
No luck for us today.

10-Jan-14
After a fruitless look yesterday and a shirt load of black ants, I spoke to Apty who remembered finding it but no detail except a description of the container. Today after carefully avoiding the ants it was located and the log signed, thus closing off five blank days in the GeoCalendar.

Found on a pleasant caching day out with friends. Split into 3 teams the object was to find as many of 16 caches as possible around Port Elliot in 2 hours before heading to the pub for lunch. It took my team a little while to find this one but we got there in the end. SL TFTC Spuddymoore!
 
10-Nov-13
Quick find when on an family comp to see who could get the most in 2 hours. Tftc
 
03-Nov-13
Off to the big smoke for work, so off caching I must go. Luckily I had great company.... Aussie M & M, brisal5, Locus cache and Honeysucker.
A big day with lots of cool caches to find.
Thanks
 
03-Nov-13
Mogni was back in town for the weekend so a GOTHS escapade to Victor was Planned. I was lucky enough to score a seat in the Gothmobile with both Aussie M & Ms and mogni. We were soon to be joined by Honeysucker and Locus Cache in Harry. Cool

The harder it is..the better Mogni is. Another find for her. Smile Thanks Spuddymoore. Very Happy] Does you email go into meltdown on weekends [?]
 
03-Nov-13
A recent trip to Victor alerted us to just how many caches there are down there, so a trip was planned for mogni, brisal5 and the Aussies. It was a magnificent 16hrs of sunshine (until sunset), laughter and adventure and at the end of the day we had around 80 finds, 2 FTFs and a handful of DNFs. For most of the day we had Locus and Honeysucker in tow, who added more fun and laughter to a great day out.

mogni was quickly on to this one. She really excelled on the Brickyard. TFTC spuddymoore.
 
09-Oct-13
I didn't think caches were supposed to be buried. Clue suggests this. Didn't have any luck.
 
04-Oct-13
Didn't find it on the first attempt as I checked only two trees.
On the way back, I stopped again on the off-chance I might find it.
The third tree was lucky.
Thanks for the cache Spuddymoore
 
14-Sep-13
This kept us busy for a bit, then we found it.... Hint didn't help as it was on the open so you may like to check it & replace as it should be, we hid it a bit better than it was though. TFTC

Geocaching with Braveheart17 over the past few months in the Fleurieu area. Only just logging them all now, sorry. Love the hides and the adventures, thanks to all for the hunts. Thoroughly enjoyable.
 
11-Mar-13
Found with Sully1 on our way to Victor Harbour for a couple of more days in this cache rich state.
This was a terrific trip with great weather and friendly welcoming cachers to meet and greet.
A huge variety of hides had us on our toes, and a huge thanks to all the local cachers who provided the fun for us. Thanks again spuddymoore, we did a lot of your hides today

10-Mar-13
After another very enjoyable evening celebrating Semik's birthday at the "gonna soak up the sun event" we again joined forces with maccamob and alansee to head out to Victor Harbour grabbing a few caches whilst taking in the great scenery of the area. Being on holidays and not wanting to do any work at all we had no reason to visit mitre 10 but we did enjoy finding the cache.
Thanks again for the cache.
 
10-Mar-13
Found with Team Crackers and Maccamob on a day out to Victor Harbour. This was my second go at this one and thankfully David found it before long at all.

Lunch break, time to look for a quickie to knock another day off my Caching Calender.
This was handy and workmate & muggle, Jarred decided not to assist on this one, but he wasn't needed. Another day ticked.

Mr S went caching while Mrs S gave a presentation at the civic centre. A relatively quick find today, on the road that leads to a friends house. Container was not covered so was an easy find.
Thanks for the cache, spuddymore.

day out With Firesafe CP and Locus cache Having a lot of laughs and a good time
good hide
 
10-Feb-13
This was another case of a full on day caching! SurprisedCool

I was out with the boys: firesafe, CP Wanderer and Honeysucker and had the luxury of driving a Prado with free diesel for the day, thanks to a friend of mine Surprised [^] Big Grin

Somehow, though, Prado got interpreted as Tarago by our usually extremely competent navigator Sad and so we mainly did urban caches rather than rural ones where the vehicle's potential could have been more full utilised but it was still a hugely fun day Big Grin and all up I attempted to locus cache at 95 caches: 89 successfully Cool and 6 DNFs Sad

Thank you, gentlemen, for the company and laughs Cool and huge congratulations to firesafe on his 10,000th cache [^] [^] .....which just happened to require a 23km fast run from Aldinga to Mt Compass for the FTF Wink (and our 2nd FTF for the day Big Grin [^] ). Belated congratulations to Honeysucker, too, for his 6,000th find Big Grin [^] Wink

Right along the Brickyard and we found this cache, too Wink

Today I teamed up with Honeysucker, Locus Cache and CP Wanderer for a 16 hour caching day caching areas south of Adelaide finishing up in Victor Harbor around 2:30 am. Smile

We hit around 100 caches on the day, even making 2 FTF runs (one in Aberfoyle Park from Hallet Cove and the other at Mt Compass from Aldinga). The second FTF coincided with my 10000 find. Big Grin

Quick find and sign. TFTC. Big Grin

Sorry spuddymoore 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 spuddymoore for placing this cache.
