Due to Cabbos no longer living at premises by cache have decided to archive this cache

After coming from Mt Gambier via the western side of Lake Bonney through Canunda NP, it was time to find a few caches around Millicent before heading back to The Mount .
Tricky find . TNLNSL.
Thanks Earthlight & The X-Trailers.

Took three goes. Good hiding

Nice one!!

Found it very good hide

Our first day in Millicent for the Mega Event, staying at the Lakeside park. A total of 12 finds for today.
Cache was found after a short search and in good condition. Nice camo as well, TFTC.

That was a wHOLE lot harder, but we were wired for it.

Gee whiz that was a tough one. Too dark to see any ponies.

Redeemed this one from an earlier DNF

This weekend, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to the limestone coast / south-east for some sightseeing, mountain biking, and sinkhole diving. On Friday night, we stayed at Robe, seeing the famous obelisk the following morning. We then drove through Little Dip Conservation Park to Beachport, then Rendelsham, Hatherleigh, and staying in Millicent. On Sunday, we checked out Tantanoola and the Tantanoola Caves, mountain biked through Mount Gambier Forest and Browns Lake area, and finally on Monday, we dived Kilsby Sinkhole before driving back Telford Scrub Conservation Reserve and Penola. A great long weekend of sunny weather.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I started the day with a Millicent breakfast, and from there, we headed through Tantanoola, followed by a visit to Tantanoola Caves, which was a fantastic experience. We then unloaded the mountain bikes for a ride through Mount Gambier Forest completing the Honan Mint Trail. Our final stop of the day was Mount Gambier's caldera / Valley Lake area, mountain biking some of the trails there.

A quick find whilst driving past this location today, and the cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks [@earthlight](http://coord.info/PR39X1P) and The X-Trailers for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

A fun weekend away with [@Davidwazza](http://coord.info/PR61VZX) exploring Mt Gambier & surrounds! TFTC!

Finishing off our weekend of not quite a mega fun, a chance to find some caches to get **JEM** over the 1500 milestone, and celebrating an 18th birthday milestone for Sebastbat.

Today we had to farewell Millicent and head back towards our "essential" working lives.

Still couldn't resist a few caches in the rain on the way home

A nice drive by.

Thanks The X-Trailers for placing and maintaining another great cache in this region of our state

Stay safe while caching, those things you touch can often be dirty...
wash your hands, wipe down your cache gear,
stay on this side of the border ( it was very tempting... )
sanitise, exercise, even wear a mask if the season makes you sneeze and cough, and
cache the countryside safely distanced at least an emu or an adult brown snake's length apart ! ! !
Have fun out there caching the regions ! ! ! And see you at the mega next year

Find #11691.

DNF

found with mogni leaving Mount Gambier and on the way back to Adelaide. Today's aim was to get the night cache ( in daylight if possible ( and it was ) ), as many of the higher terrain caches around Millicent plus any higher D caches if we had the time, a few more off highway stray caches and any we just happened to pass.

Arrived and searched but had no luck. Went to call the CO and sure enough I found it then. Cache is all good

Today being in the south east for the weekend I focused on just finding the caches along the way and cleaning up the area. Started with the Honan mint tin trail followed by an event in mount gambier then caching in Tantanoola and Millicent. All up 69 finds and 5 labs for the day.

Thanks for the cache

Cache has a new log thanks to Cabbos. All ok for next finder

Cache all good after maintenance by Cabbos

Log has been replaced.. all good to go

Love it a reminder of farm life as a kid TYFTC

Sneaky hide, but when it was realised how obvious it is

Day Three in Millicent to clean up a few caches before Easter with BettyBoo3747.
Today we just wandered north of Millicent collecting caches along our route.

Hillview Lad's mates from across the road came over to say hello (and see if we had any carrots), but they wouldn't tell us where the cache was.
Luckily we found it.
Thanks, Robmc.

#17197. Day 3 and our the final day in and around Millicent for Robmc and me. We just wandered the area and collected caches along the way.

Our last find for the day now we are back in town. A quick find fortunately of what could have taken a while. RIP Hillview Lad.

Hi there The X-Trailers.

We ventured from Mount Gambier to Millicent for a day out. We enjoyed our outing and found 24 caches (& DNF'd 2) in our cache run today. Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places while we meander our way around Australia.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Nothing.

Regards

Ian & Penny.

At the last minute decided to go for a little drive just on night fall. Thanks to Smil3yman's help with writing tools and holding the torch while I logged away.

2nd time round round it ! Very small

Too good for us today...

Nice overgrown garden. Made it hard to find. TFTC

quick find with geo sister and her family tftc

quick and easy find tftc it was found before the kids got out of the car. (but we left it for the kids to find, his first cache of that size)

Suscoe was enjoying a few days at Mount Gambier and surrounds this week leading up to Easter.
We experienced a strange but familiar pattern of weather with a storm last weekend, with hail, rain and strong winds and towards the end of the week we had calm and sunny days. Just like home.
Anyway, we enjoyed the caching, so many different locations and interesting hides.
Well done to all the cachers for the work done in creating and hiding their caches for us to find.

It was the day after that cold front and things were settling down a bit but there were still a few showers about and a cold wind.

Millicent is a delightful area to explore.

Thanks to The X-Trailers for this cache.
All quiet here today.

We have based ourselves in Millicent and have ventured out to as many surrounding areas as possible in a day to go sight seeing and caching. This was one we targetted and found. Thanks to The X-Trailers for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

Millicent Day2
We have set up camp in a wonderful park that is situated beside the lakeside pool.
After lunch we cached around the town area.
Some great hides & inventive containers.
Thanks for placing this cache The X-Trailers

Very small. Rip hillview lad

Simmons kids found it

We were fortunate enough to have driven past and seen Hillview Lad enjoying his life of luxury in the paddock nearby, but were always a bit wary to do a cache near a house. This cache was always popping up as our closest to home unfound and with our daily streak taking us sooo far from home we chose a wet miserable day to search for this one as we figured every one would be tucked up in front of their fires if they were home.
It was a relatively quick find which was handy as it really was a wet wet wet day, so after our find and tucking away safely we treated ourselves to a pie from the nearby bakery, that warmed us up nicely.
Thanks X-Trailers for the cache. TNLNSL

Tiny! Smallest one we've found
