Road works.

Road works has been done and wooden post have been replaced with plastic post, so may need checking.

I have been before Cherry rose and brought GeoGrandkids today and was disappointed to see posts have been replaced with plastic ones during road works.

Road works performed. Cache requires replacing.

Wow. Another great hide. This had me worried for a while but the motto 'always trust your GPS' is so true. Also it helped that I found the previous cache so knew what I was expecting. A brilliant hide. TNLN. Cheers.

Today we headed out with earthlight to go find some caches and get out of the house for a while,another cool hide. TFTC

What a genius cache! Thanks for the clever hide. Definitely worth a favourite.

Great hide, love it. Gps is a little off, definitely no need to climb up the bank (try the other side), sltftc

TFTC very tricky hide. A favourite of mine

run out of time

Found on a great day out in the hills, hunting smilies
Another clever hide.
Thanks for the cache Megatrick

Found with Beary Organised it is such a cool hide hopefully never removed by the Council. Deserves a favourite point. TFTC TNLNSL

Found it with CherryRose on an afternoon clearing up some of these close to home that we hadn't found. Another megatricky hide. Love his work. Another favourite point from me. TFTC TNLNSL

Great hide very tricky too TFTC

Another crafty hide! At first I wandered around a bit and found myself on both sides of the road. A re-read of the cache page and a couple of old logs had me studying an object that I had already considered, but rejected. Armed with the knowledge from a previous find I had a closer inspection of the object and sure enough a well constructed hide was revealed. I signed the log and had to wait out a few muggle motorists before returning the cache.

Thanks again for another great cache Megatrick.

Walking up to GZ, ronso thought she knew exactly what the cache was. Oh bugger, that's not it... but where could it be?! Then red had a closer inspection... very tricky!! A very well constructed cache that gets you thinking ;c) Fav point from us. TFTC!!

That's a cool hide!

At first I followed the arrow, which had me searching on the wrong side of the road. I then read through the attributes, and changed my search to more wheelchair accessible areas. I soon had the clever hide in my sights, and added our name to the log book.

Thanks Megatrick.

A Great day out caching in the Adelaide Hills with
M-sez and Mathew & Kay

Out with travellinbees and ktown krew to collect some smileys and a bit of knitting. New area to cache through.
Thanks for the cache

A quick slide and sign

Quick check all good.

Owl was heading home and suddenly realised she'd just passed a cache. Back she went and climbed down a completely unnecessary (but pretty) hill to the obvious (but wrong) spot. After considering the options more carefully she found the clever - one might even say brazen! - hide. The other one she missed will have to wait for next time.

Easy!! Must be becoming semi pro! This makes it #139, TFTC Megatrick!

Went for a drive at lunchtime to check out this much awarded cache. I checked here and there before coming back to the first place I had checked. I hadn't checked it carefully enough even after noticing something different. What a top cache and very well engineered. Thankfully I persisted. Thanks Megatrick for a top cache.

Sneaky!

Found it

Better than No 4 and worthy of more difficulty stars. A favourite point from me. TFTC

Quick check, all good, happy hunting.

very good cache GPS lock was poor

Missed this yesterday because gps was wavering back and forth across the road. Checked Google Earth before trying again today and soon spotted Megatrick's clever handiwork.

One of our favourite finds, all by chance & a cool surprise!

Brilliant! Great work Megatrick. Very impressed with this and 2. SL TFTC

Very nice hide! TFTC!

Another very clever one!

Awesome. A nice finish to the day. TFTC

Cool hide.... certainly worth a favourite. Thanks megatrick for the hide!

Mr DISK spotted this one almost as soon as he got out of the truck [8].
Another neat hide. TNLNSL.
Thanks Megatrick.

Tftc very very clever. Stealth in making it too.

A clever hide. Took a while but then the AHA moment. Deserves a fav point from me. Thanks Megatrick.

Clever hide in plain view. A favourite point for the time taken to construct.

Right this one had me standing in the middle of the road scratching my head. Then I noticed something not quite right. Awesome work.... TFTC...

Wow do we know how to make a party last Having been to dinner in Hahndorf we set out on another caching adventure.
Thankyou for supplying another great cache for us to find.

I am quite lost in the hills at night thanks to the other cars to follow.SL.TFTC.

A joint find tonight after attending an event in Hahndorf.
Took trackables to visit.
TFTC

After our previous find, firesafe jumped out of his car at speed and grabbed the cache from its clever hide before we could get out of our car....

Nice hide again Megatrick...

After spending some time at the Special GOTHS (Geocachers of the Hills) Dinner to farewell Mogni, a mobile flash mob headed out to do some caching around Uraidla and Ashton.

After getting the previous one, this one was a lot easier. Again clever camo. TFTC.

Found It!
I think firesafe had spotted this one before he even got out the car...
Yet another deep creek I didn't know about too...
TFTC

After attending a farewell to Mogni in Hahndorf a flash mob of 8 caching teams in 3 cars headed of for some caching. Being in car #2 I wasn't even out of the car before the occupants of car #1 made the find. All I can do is congratulate you Megatick on the clever hide.

Having left work at 5.15pm, I was worried that I might not make it to the Special GOTHS Farewell Dinner by 6pm and I really wanted to farewell the effervescent Mogni who had, as for so many others, provided me with her bubbly company on several caching runs,

I actually arrived about 6.04pm. Therefore, I attended the Special GOTHS Farewell Dinner event and it was my 1,538th cache on day 335 of continuous caching

After the event, being escorted around by the knowledgeable firesafe, Laighside Legends, earthlight and I with muff1, Aussie M&M, Brisal5 and the starring guest Mogni managed to get a few smileys in our initially three and then later two car caching convoy.

At the end of the night (which was actually the next morning), I had locus cache'd successfully on 21 caches and 1 event for the second (ok, well two caches blended into the third) day of the year!

Another clever cache hide and a great experience when found. Again, no pics will be uploaded but they WERE taken

SL. TFTC Megatrick

Walked back and forth across the road, felt like going in circles. Couldn't work it out, thankfully we read the clues and looked for something that didn't quite fit.

With Open Your Eyes... after quite a search. It was driving as NUTS from one side of the road to the other. We reread all the clues. We thought we were screwed. But careful reread and looking again and we had it. Such a carefully made camo... Love your work Megatrick. I grew up in Basket Range too so thanks for taking me back!
SL and TFTC

Found during a nice detour in the Hills. Great hide, much appreciated. Thanks for the cache Megatrick!

A previous log gave me the clue I needed. and there it was.
Cheers from the Posspet Boys

Another nice hide. Found in the only place it could be with those coords...
TNLNSL
Thanks

After doing the near-by Basket Range cache, Mr Tardis just had to get this one done too. There wasn't too many places to check, but I did start with the wrong type of object, but eventually worked it out. A clever hide indeed.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Megatrick.

Another great hiding spot. Boy thsis one had me looking, but at what? Upon reflection I should have know where to look. Another favourite here.

Mr & Mrs M-SEZ went for a quick drive around the hills today and grabbed a few caches on the way. This one took us quite a search. At first we put it down to satellite trouble in this here valley, but it turns out that the coords were pretty close. It was just so darn sneaky! Just as I started to sign the log a couple of roadworker's vehicles stopped about 100m from GZ. Had to be extra stealthy putting it back. TFTC

Just a quick check Mark 1 was getting damp, but all seems ok for Mark 2 .

Plenty of water flowing after all the recent rains. GPSr was playing silly buggers for a minute or two having me on both sides of the road. It eventually settled down long enough to get a fix on GZ. Very clever hide. TFTC Megatrick

That was clever. Parked at GZ. Cached and admired the rushing creek. Deep and deeper.

quick find whilst out and about with a bumblebee.

Great hide guys... really had me lost.. but i kept thinking.. that's not right.. but couldnt' quite put my finger on it.. LOL.. then we did.. !!

Loved it guys!

TFTC

out with Team Scoobster
saw this was unclaimed so went for a drive to find pipped at the post so silver for us

Being so close to home I couldn't resist the temptation and was rewarded with the FTF [^]
A clever little spot you found there Megatrick
Cheers & TFTH
