It's a great walk and a great set-up for a multi, unfortunately due to lack of action from the CO, it's now almost impossible. Suggest this is archived or adopted by someone who will maintain it. Contact me if you are no longer able to look after it.
The signs are all getting a bit faded so it was hard to read some of the required information. But I got some coordinates and headed off to GZ.
There I searched for about 15 mins before I made a PAF.
With some added idea I looked a bit further, while trying to not get wet feet, and still couldn’t see it. After moving a bunch of rocks I finally spotted it.
Woo Hoo! That was an effort. Dropped in a little TB to reward the next person who tries this one.
Thanks for the cache spuddymoore.

I enjoyed my walk along the trail. Beautiful area and perfect weather early on a Sunday morning. Lots of birds out and about. TFTC Spuddymoore.
We finally went and found the cache today after spending two previous days walking around in Beyond collecting the clues.
Some of the clues were a little ambiguous in the way they could be interpreted so it would pay to record the options - one wrong digit put the cache about 1k out to sea!
I'm not sure how much longer the clues will be use-able as many of the signs are fading and becoming difficult to read. It will be a great shame as there was obviously a lot of work put into setting it up.

WOW, what a walk, not a lot of water in the lagoon but still many birds were seen. Thanks for taking us on this walk. SL TFTC
A Victor Harbor day trip consisting of a variety of geocache collections. Following a parkrun, it was on to a trek over to Granite Island for the event with Queenslanders, webcam, Earthcaches and traditional caches, before then heading back over to the mainland collecting a few caches that Laighside Legends had not found. This included the Brian 60th puzzle series. A bakery lunch and a few more caches later, and it was late enough to head back to Adelaide. Perfect summer weather day to be around the beach!
LL had a previous DNF here, so I joined him in having another look today. Started answering the questions and enjoying the various descriptions. Once at GZ, we started looking, and within a few minutes, I had found the cache. A nice area, thanks spuddymoore.

Found It!
After failing at this one last year I came back today with Davidwazza. And after a bit of looking around GZ, he found the cache for me!

getting up early for the Seaside Ten event meant i had time to cache my way here and do this multi as well. nice walk along the trail. quick find at gz.
After finding over 200 regular caches, this is the first multi we have ever cracked. Yay!
Went for a bit of a walk to check on this one and all is well but just decided to replace the container with a fresh one and adjust the hint to make it more relevant.
This multi is one of the last ones that's on my unfound list down at Victor, and I knew it wouldn't be a quick drive-by, but rather a lovely walk. Stopped today after a surf kayaking session and wandered along the track. Missed the first sign as just next to it there was a SNAKE on the middle of the path that took my attention! Yup the wriggly stick was out today, and fortunately this was the only one on the walk. Went back to the sign and grabbed the info. Wandered along the track and obtained all the info from the signs, admiring the abundant bird life along the way. Then set about working out the coords. Made a few educated guesses on some of the numbers, and I eventually had a set of coords that would likely hold a cache. Went there and found a cachy looking spot and then found the container after a minute of hunting. Signed log. Enjoyed this one - a great multi and a great walk. Thanks Spuddymoore!
Out with Aussie M & M doing some cache maintenance and needed to make a find too...
Lovely day for a walk so off we set with Chloe the geodog. We sat and were working through our answers when a local stopped us to check if we were bird watching, he has found over 80 species of bird here. Cache was slightly damp on the inside but log all good.
Thank you for giving me a reason to go for a walk.

This is a very nice walking area although it is not so obvious where to access it from. We gathered the information, made an educated guess on one number and went back to the spot where GZ ended up being.
When we were working out the coordinates, a resident came along and told us of the 80 + birds he has seen while living there.
Some of the information plaques are a bit faded, but this is definitely a doable cache.

Hevwalker had a day off and wanted to go and check on one of her caches on the Fleurieu Peninsular. I was free so we made a day of it caching our way south west in search of that elusive smilie. I even managed to rectify a couple of previous DNF's but as usual added another one to the list. [B)] But it was great day will lots of walking to caches in Conservation Parks where the spring flowers were starting to be in abundance.
This was a fun walk. [^] There were plenty of scupltures and mosaic to look at and when we got near GZ two balck swans with four cygnets. The cache was a little damp inside but the logbook was nice and dry.
**Thanks spuddymoore for this cache. **

What a beautiful area to be out in on this perfect day with brisal5...
The walk did us a lot of good after just having had lunch at the bakery...
We heard frogs & saw a lot of birdlife...
The water was a bright blue...
We saw a couple of black swans with their grey fluffy cygnets glide by us in the water...
Just so perfect & serene...
Along the walk the houses seemed to be adorned with lovely sculptures and tiled mosaics...
Thanks for bringing us to this area, spuddymoore

Froghoppin & CPwanderer had run out of nearby caches.
Having always running short of time, now seemed a good time to start collecting the clues.
We kinda did it backwards, but managed to collect & make sense of most of the clues.
Finally figuring out where gz was, we figured we had walked past it at least twice.
The cache was a bit more hidden & had some water in the bottom of the cache, but the log was still good & dry.

Out for a days adventure with Clare007 and CPWanderer, we wandered and hopped down the path gathering the info required, one question was a little grey and gave us coordinates out to sea, adjusting the one figure we had a realistic GZ, upon reaching GZ we found after ashort search, a great fun multi and enjoyable walk around the wetlands, water was low but still quite a bit of wildlife around

A great multi that took some time to complete with clare007 and froghoppin. Some interpretation needed to get viable Co ordinates but we got there as the sun was starting to set. Spot on Co ords at the GZ ....a favourite.
Found all the answers and made it to GZ. But despite moving a lot of rocks, no cache was found...
This was a great multi cache through a lovely area. Heaps of birds along the way and it is nice to see the area being conserved for all to enjoy. The clues were collected and answers derived. We had one uncertainty but seeing as the cache was unlikely to be hundreds of metres into the ocean, we knew which option to try first. It took a while to locate the container at GZ but persistence paid off. Got a bit wet on the walk back to the car as the weather rolled in. Thanks spuddymoore
Day Seven of our holiday, BettyBoo3747 and I dragged out the deadly treadlies and rode the pathway as far as Basham Reserve, stopping at Port Elliot for lunch and collecting a few caches and some DNFs on the way.
It was more like Beyond Nature Ride for us today, on the deadly treadlies. And a nice ride it was too.
We spent most of the way out searching for information boards, but all of the way back looking at the lakes, birds, and sculptures.
We struggled with a couple of questions (should have printed it out), but got there in the end.
Bit of a bugger finding the final although we were looking in the right spot.
Thanks for the great multi.
Thanks, Robmc.

#11661. Day 7 of our SA holiday. We decided it was a bike-riding day now that the gale force winds had stopped and the sun was out. We went as far as Basham Reserve,collecting caches and DNF's along the way and then made our way home quite quickly along the bike paths. We also enjoyed a very pleasant lunch in Port Elliot. I think this is definitely one of my new favourite towns. Loved it and Horseshoe Bay.
Called in at this one on the way to Port Elliot but had a couple of answers, and therefore numbers wrong. We thought about things for a while a bit later on and came to the conclusion we needed to change a couple of things and then it looked better. Called in here on the way back and couldn't find an arrow but EVENTUALLY found a cache. Thought we might gain some "UNLOVE" here as the last names in the book were from April and May 2016. Certainly couldn't spot the last visitors in the book - oh well!

In the area with four-fun after we had splashed down at the fun event at the beach. Mr Fun did the honors with this one - always a keen hunter. Clear skies and our thanks to Spuddymoore
In the area for the seaside event and took the opportunity to find a few others This was one of the fun finds

I enjoyed the informative walk. People kept on asking if I was counting the birds... Took a short while to find the container. Fav point for the nature walk. Thanks spuddymoore.
Cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Must have moved 200kg of rocks.
This cache was found using a Garmin GPSr, Montana 650t, Oregon 550 or Dakota 20. Waypoints and paperless geocaching downloaded via GSAK 8.

What a way to start a bit of night caching walking the bike trail and the moon showing us the way.
Found as a group assault.
Collected the info as we went then stopped and worked the final co-ords.
A favourite point from me.

Found with The X Trailers on holidays here from Qld and earthlight as well, it was a great 4 days with plenty of laughs along the way, after spending the day down at Deep creek we return and have some tea and decide to head back out and do some night caching, this one was a very enjoyable multi to do and who doesn't enjoy leaning about animal facts along the way lol. TFTC
Interesting little multi
Learnt a little along the way to ground zero
Earthlight loved this one

This was our first multi. We really enjoyed the walk through the area and we learnt a lot. It was a great cache and it got us thinking about cache ideas!

Headed south to escape the 42C heat in the burbs this morning.
A much more pleasant temperature down here! hahaha
A nice walk here, where we have been in the past.
All info collected easily, and was informative too.
Cache found with spot on co-ords, in an obvious place at 11am.
Dropped my *FTF* geocoin through for a visit too.
