Before we leave the area we decided there was time to try to pick up a few more of this series, we enjoy caching on quiet country roads so this really suits us, TFTC

It has to be a pretty special type of cache to be a new type of hide these days & they are always incredibly exciting. TFTC!

Now that the main reason for our journey was over and multiple caching trails were completed it was time to venture home. Our Mob had gone separate ways. Only three teams left now us, Rapidlywild and The Drovers. We cleaned up a few more while in the area before making the slow journey home. All the others had previously completed this trail but thankfully they were happy to help out and drive around the loop again so we could get our name in the logs. Thanks for the hide and series Mattycat and thanks for a fun adventure Rapidlywild

The weather is getting very warmer, but I won't give up until the series is completed... I'm so happy to sign as an EV, and thank you for the cache and hunt.Some of the caches need TLC and refresh.. due to some damp log and damage to the container, etc..

Two caches here. Signed them both!
With an afternoon free and a storm forecast for mid-afternoon, we decided to find some caches on the ‘50’. Not too far from home and not a full day’s worth of caching.
Most of the caches we stopped for we found. Some we bypassed as there were locals present or there was nowhere to stop safely. The dry weather roads were relatively dry for the most part, quite wet in places and completely impassable in others!
A good couple of hours caching and no storm.
Please excuse the copy and paste.
TFTC SEMIK and Mattycat.

Easy find, but there are two cache containers.
I enjoy finding new types of containers, I've seen several different ones in my time, but still so many new ones to find.

After doing the 5 yesterday, we're doing the 0 today. Early to try and beat the heat. Thank you Semik and Mattycat for the series.

Two caches at the same spot? Bit weird. Lol

Think I logged the whole series this morning but can’t be sure till I see smileys on the map. Installed new logs where needed (a few were mouldy), replaced caches that were def missing... one was just a base no lid or log. Got twigs in my hair, drove down a goat track (you know the one), consumed water and fruity chews, found a few on the ground, most were exactly where I thought they’d be Picked a zillion bits of speargrass outa my old runners.

A real pleasure to explore this region today

I’m almost two years in, and still being wowed by the ingenuity of others.

I need seven caches for a personal goal, here they are, all lined up on Roehr Rd. All caches were in reasonable condition for their age, some logs a bit full, and in most cases I’ve logged out of sequence to extend log life. Thanks SEMIK and Mattycat for this powertrail; I’ve enjoyed the walk, and there are still some left for another day.

After spending most of the morning and early afternoon in my car going from cache to cache, it was time to get my bike off the bike rack and get some exercise.

I parked near #35 and the set off on my bike to complete the 0 trail. Then moved my car to the 5 trail and again set off on my bike.

Not sure how many kilometres but in today’s heat, it was quite a work out for me.

All caches found. One cache needs a new container (#35) and about half a dozen had damp logbooks but still write able. All others were good.

Thanks for creating and maintaining this series- I had an enjoyable afternoon.

Thanks for the cache SEMIK.

While staying this area we knew we just had to do the caches in this series, plus a couple of others close by. All except one log was signed, all containers were replaced in position before we moved on again. There was a huge variety in the condition of the logs which varied from one that couldn't be signed, through to acceptable, good and some were excellent.
We decided to give a few caches a miss, as the tracks leading to them were deeply rutted and not appealing at all.
Many thanks go to the CO's for each cache placement.

The caches around here looked like fun, so we came along with goingplaces2 and had a good go at these ones. Some tracks were good, some were OK and some were very iffy. Logs were signed, caches were replaced and the job was done. TFTC.

Ventured to the Barossa with LiB today for the event at Nuriootpa...
After the event and a trip to the new Chocolate factory we decided it was time to get some treasure hunting in...
We had just been up the guts of the 5 and after some challenging driving I completed those...
These were on a good road and the caches were quickly located...
Thanks for maintaining this series of caches Mattycat Smile

Hi there SEMIK.

We found your cache **"Five Oh - 38 Finding new types of hides"** today. (This makes our find count 22111).

Today we headed out from Kapunda to finish the "50" series We thoroughly enjoyed today's cache finds but please excuse our boilerplate logs - we know it's not really a good excuse, but we find it difficult to craft individual logs when we attempt so many similar caches in a day. [:(!]

We found 27 caches today & DNF'd 2. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found most caches within a few metres of where our GPS said we should be looking. [:(!] (We did have to look a little further afield for some though). [:(!]
**Cache Condition:** The containers and log books were mostly in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge in the majority of caches.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny

Visiting Barossa with my Mum who is over from the UK . We had booked a lunch at Wolf Blass and a motel ages ago so still made the trip despite the 41 degree day yesterday.
With a cooler day on the cards today I couldn’t resist an early start this morning to head out and collect a few caches.
Finished the 50 series (started it 3.5 years ago) and found some other targeted caches.
Had a few issues with the new version of cachly absolutely did my head in and in the end resorted to using the official app which was giving me more accurate results.
Ended up with 32 finds for the morning and then back to motel to check out and do touristy Barossa stuff (Maggie Beers, 2 wineries and lunch in Tanunda). TFTC the caching this morning was a highlight of my Barossa weekend.

Some of the types of hides out there are so much "Works of Art" they are way too good to be just left out in the elements [:o] Gadget {Field Puzzle} Caches come to mind.

For ease we stamped the logs as "Fabulous Randoms" today

A nice trail to do......the section in the middle for 4WD was a little hectic at times, but we got there. Overall an enjoyable and fun time was had.

Thanks so much for this series of caches SEMIK! [^]
