The area is now not available to the general public
Please remember to return to the GZ and collect the cache or Check it has been removed if you have not already done so.
We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash and if you have any TB's or coins in your cache I'm sure the owners would want them moved on.
This cache has now been taken off my watchlist and I will not see any notes you leave on the cache page from today
As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.
Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center article [here](http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70).

GZ/cache is now in a fenced off area due to construction and not accessible without permission. As per the Guidelines this cache currently does not meet the criteria. Would be encouraged to relocate the cache to a nearby location and/or disable until construction is complete.
Clocking up cache finds for the June Wheel of Challenges, plus getting my daily cache.
GZ is now closed off and not accessible without permission. Whilst some may be sneaky to get a cache, it should not be encouraged and we doubt Geocache HQ or Geocache reviewers would approve.

Sneaky sneaky past the fence at 0700 on a Sunday let me get to this one. Lucky to early for anyone to be around. Few spiders, but the cache is still there. Not sure if it will survive the construction, lots more debris now around GZ.
The cache is still there but maybe not for long with the nearby construction - luckily no one around today so i could sneak in and sign
A fence has gone up around GZ, but the construction hasn’t started yet. I took advantage of the fence being incomplete, but this one might be unavailable for a period of time soon. Thanks for the hide emma1478.
#16706 - 10:20:00 AM; Returned to South Australia yesterday accompanied by Sol de lune to retrieve the geomobile, which had been in dry dock in Victor Harbour since my previous visit. Now back in action, and after spending the night in Adelaide, we set off this morning headed to Mildura in the reinvigorated geomobile. As we headed out of Adelaide, we decided to add a few counties to our tally. This saw us weaving our way through different parts of the city collecting caches like this one as we went. All were found in good order and returned as found after we had signed the logs. TFTC emma1478
In Adelaide with LuckyL10n to pickup a car and driving back to Canberra...and of course that also meant grabbing a few caches. We concentrated on the counties we hadn't been to before, ensuring we grabbed one or two to cross it off the unfound list.
No problems with the ones we decided on, and our names were soon in the logs.
Thanks emma1478...

Great Northern escape 2022 Day 177. Blackwood Day 1. I was able to spend the morning caching down the western side of Adelaide and visit the Oakland wetlands before heading into town to do an important collection task before returning home for the day.
This poor old tree has seen better days, I had to dig through lots of old concrete to get down to the cache, but it was dry and bug free inside, despite all the life on the outside.
Thanks for the cache emma1478

Plenty of fruit on the tree. Have mixed with Rick salt 1:1 for a few months to pickle! TFTC
It has been nice exploring different areas after work and fitting in some caching along the way (or is it the other way around?). This one was very close to my route so a minor detour was made. A quick find in the end. TFTC emma1478
Very clever hide. It is a work area at the minute. Some Renos happening. We let ourselves in the unlocked gate. Felt bad about entering, but did not harm anything. TFTC
Delivery near by due for a break time to cache container and log book all good TFTC
Easy find. And relieved not to discover yet another mint tin. There are SO MANY around here! TFTC
Thanks for the quick easy find. Out caching with making pie. Adelaide weather! Perfect today.
Went out on a walk with [@GeckoJ](http://coord.info/PRRFBPN) and decided to grab a cache while we were out.
Found "The Phantoms" whilst very close having a Christmas drink with a Muggle friend, took the TB coin which I will try to send a bit more South and left an Australian Rugby keyring.
TFTC was nice to take the kids out to a different playground. Can see how this cache got its name, the surrounding trees are a bit eeire!
Nice quick cache, thanks!
Nice quick cache, thanks!
I started 2020 with some improbable caching goals that only lasted until mid February.
With so few caches within 20 kms of home they are now to just complete the Calendar to have found both a mystery and a multicache on every day. Should be able to do one probably not both. [^]
Today I needed to find a multicache. But it was also a Wednesday Wander for members of the Befuddled Puzzle Solving Group and we had plenty of recently solved puzzles to go and search for. We also wanted to do quite a few Lab Caches to be able to solve a few of the associated puzzles. Also wanted to do some more in the TOTT series. It was going to be a big big day for myself, Anymules, SA Sewer Rats and Blackadders.
A quick find for just me whilst we were in the area.

Today I arrived a bit early for an event that was nearby. Decided to make the short walk over to this one. With the co ords being pretty good it didn’t take long before I had the cache in hand. Cache and contents in good condition TFTC
Had some time to spare while GeoMum was shopping. Found with Csaba! and SupaOrange. Turtle Out
After spending some money IKEA the Sups's and I dropped SupaMum off to spend some more. Win win for everyone. Cruised around and picked up an assortment of caches. Thanks
Just a brilliant day to be out geocaching with muttly. Found the cache easily and signed the log quickly before leaving it protected from any bad weather. TFTC
On the way home from visiting the oldies, we took the geo-pup for a short walk to grab this one. Found exactly as advertised! TFTC
A quick find actually upon approach to GZ. A nice area, and muggle-free today with the dampness and rain about.
Overall, this geocache needs some TLC maintenance. The container isn't too bad, but it has no lid. The plastic bag is barely protective, as it is quite torn apart. The logbook is also pretty scrappy, so would be nice to look at replacing this one also.
The difficulty is probably also a little overrated for what it is. Thanks nonetheless emma1478, cheers.

Quick find just up the road from where my grandparents used to live. Played in this park a few times when I was little

Found while hunting traditionals in the Glenelg north area.
Container is very second hand and also needs a fresh log.

Day 4 of our little get away, sad to be heading home today, its been great having all the fresh air even though we are exhausted Tftc
Out to grab a few more local caches before we start heading back home to Sydney tomorrow. A quick find here, right where my GPS said I should. It's probably time to replace this container as the current eclipse tin is starting to fall apart. Thanks for the smiley emma1478.
A familiar sight upon arrival helped with the quick location of this one. TFTC.
Having some time to kill between work & tonight's event I headed West to collect a few caches...
Nice wander to GZ with no-one around this afternoon...

Found #1685.
41 degrees outside, and I had an apointment in Camden Park. After that, I tried this cache, as it was not far away.
Found the cache easily. The log book was full. Still managed to find some space to sign.

Sunny the dachshund had to take a detour from her usual walk so I could find this cache. She happily scampered around as we searched GZ and found the cache with ease. Sunny enjoyed her first geocache hunt, but was pleased to head home and have a nap.
Owl was at a conference nearby and couldn't leave without making a quick detour. There were muggles, but they were too intent on their practice shots to pay any attention to Owl.
After the event nearby headed out to pick up a few to round out the numbers. Quick find here felt sorry for the kids playing footy in the cold wet and rain TFTC
