By SAGEO_5 on 13-Oct-19. Waypoint GC8EW3E

Found at 11:44 am with Shonky and SXC on a weekend away

Found on a weekend trip with the boys.TFTCCheers and Happy Hunting Southern Cross Caching

Found with uni and sxc on a drive to the Barossa, the Riverland and beyond... Took a while to find the first location but it was right there in the open at the coordinates. Thanks for the hide. Logged with [GCDroid / WheriDroid](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gcdroid.sub).

Day 3 of my long weekend away up the river. The main goal of the weekend was to tryout my new pole and to try and fill in my D/T Grid but of course I was finding what ever crossed my path as well.A few more to attempt along the trail before I call it a day.TFTC SAGEO_5

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location. (HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do. [:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort. Devilish Brilliant and Clever I like it Another one off the list TTBLNSL TFTC/TFTH/TFBUH - SA Geo 5 [^]

- **On your Bike - Day 3** -**SIGNED AB!***Loci612 / DARKSIDEDAN / Tiz13 / echocage1*After a huge day yesterday, we decided to take it a bit easier today! Sort of.... We devoted the first half of the day to the "Around the World in 81 caches" series! This was an interesting change of pace to the Wherigo's! The caches took a lot longer to solve / find which was expected given the D/T ratings and multi aspect! But with a lot of persistence we succeeded! However we did have to DNF one of them, after an extensive search It was a lot of fun & something a bit different! Later in the afternoon we then started on the OYB caches once again, we needed to get more ticked off the list so that we didn't leave more than we could manage for the final day! It was a long afternoon, but eventually we called it quits when we had 200+ left which was manageable for tomorrow! Phew! Forgot to book accomodation so then had a panic calling many motels, who would of thought they would all be booked out on a random Tuesday!? Eventually we landed ourselves with a room, fanciest of the trip too! Huge thanks to SAGEO_5, but mainly to the individual persons involved with this account and setting up this epic series!

Day 3 of the on your bike shenanigans saw the 4 of us Tiz13 echocage1 DARKSIDEDAN and Loci612 also going around the world as we started the morning off at these multi. They almost sent us around the loop but working together we eventually made our way through the series only DNFing 1....all other were found logs signed or stamped AB or ABG (Adventure boys/Gals ) depending on who signed (don't ask) I signed the caches I found with ABAdventure Bound All caches found, some quicker than others, some higher or lower than expected, a few offered us a challenge that we took turns in accepting. All in all, a very successful fun day 3.echocage1 was on fire this morning making the 1st few find while the rest of us had cache blindness.

Road tripped to Adelaide for theLeap Day Mega, caching all the way and trying to fulfil various challenges.This cache-which challenge/why? on your bike series and othersTeamed up with Darkside Dan, Loc1612 and Tiz13 to find as many of these as we could. Early start each day and going hammer and tongs all day to achieve our goals.All caches sought were found.Logs signed AB! or AbG!Adventure boys and girls!TFTC

GC8EW3E Around the World in 81 caches #46A group of us are down from Darwin and Brisbane in preparation of the leap year event. Today was day 1 of hitting the bikes. To save space in the logs as signed as the BOLD7. Was meant to be BDLD7 but something got lost in translation. TFTC SAGEO_5

Continuing on with my South Australian caching tour and the mad collection of caches in the state. I am again with the BOLD 7 and today it is going to be a mad assault on as many as we can get of the On your bike series. We are working from our digs down and first of collecting the around the world series and then heading towards sedan for the bikes and a few others as we pass along. There is so much to do and in such close proximity. It is surprising as to how well these caches are placed and have remained in place. It was to stop off and collect the caches and the traffic was a little hectic at times but manageable. Thanks for setting up these caches and maintaining the series. All caches were signed as BOLD 7 and replaced as found. The generic log signing is to save log replacements

Yesterday BOLD07 got the cars blooded with plenty of bull dust chasing some girl called Anna to the west of here. Today and for the foreseeable future, we're putting on more dirt layers on the car.I'm tempted to submit the car as an earth cache and see what answers I'd get back. As part of the inane questions, I'd ask cachers to put down what message they'd put on the back of the car. The back window of the car wouldn't be long enough for, my life is a lot like that driver who signals right, but turns leftThanks SAGEO_5 for a tremendous effort with these multis and the bike series.

With our group BOLD7 entertaining ourselves as we head north to explore the country. Fab day collecting bikes and other menagerie! . Thanks to the SA cachers for awesome variety of caches.

How very exciting the big trip has finally arrived! Down from Brisbane with a host of other geo friends with plans aplenty, enough to almost see us needing to extend or make a return visit. Our geonick for the trip is BOLD7 which is guaranteed to save the log paper for the 7 individual members of the team. As we make our way around sadly there wont be time for the usual individual logs and therefore just the old generic log will have to do. With little extra notes here and there if needed. Thank you for your cache which has added to my wonderful caching holiday.

Collecting some multies and smilies from around the world. Signed with Leap-Mega group nickname BOLD7. Thanks for hiding and maintaining these caches.

Day 2 for us in the area. Today is so much cooler than yesterday, and we are out for a drive and to find some more of the ONB series and Around the World series. A lovely day through quiet roads and beautiful bushland. We replaced a container for at least one where the lid had been broken and added a couple more clip lock bags along the way also.We were grateful for our variety of TOTTS, and enjoyed a few good tree climbs as well. Thanks SAGEO_5Domsky

TFTC SA-GEO, decided to tackle this series and do some maintenance.PAF to collect the info required to replace containers at WP1 .Located quite a few we thought had gone AWOL

No joy at WP1. Ill keep a watch on. Thanks for the cache SAGEO_5.

On a multi project in the true sense of the word far from home base at higher altitudes with a group of likeminded geobuddies! Travelling with contesta and weirdo biker to get a start on the mammoth mission ahead of us along this well maintained road. Thanks so much for the many caches SAGEO_5 and incentive to get on out here exploring this wide vast land!

Find # 9191On my way to Mildura to meet up with some caching friends to begin our epic On Your Bike series adventure. Picking up some counties, oldies, and other specials along the route to add to my tally and to stretch the legs. This was a quick and easy find and here at Around the World in 81 caches #46 GZ today. Thanks so much for the many caches SAGEO_5 and of course for giving me a reason and incentive to get out here, and to experience this part of the world in a different light

After planning this trip to do the on your bike series for ages we finally met some of the team in Mildura last night. After a quick event this morning hosted by Ronice88, Contesta, Ronice88 and myself set out to collect a few caches on the way to Swan Reach. This one was one of the easier finds for the day

Travelling Australia in our caravan since February 2014.Staying a few days at Swan Reach. Grabbing whatever caches we can. TFTC SAGEO_5

Finally found it, bees still there but not a problem Thanks SAGEO_5 for the multi tftc

Getting towards the end of the day when this series was tackled. Some were more difficult to find than others.

Late Afternoon of Day 4 of our On Your Bike adventure
Finally headed for home (Waikerie), via a few multis in the bush, and a road full of Multis.
Hardest to find caches of the day - like tiny bison tubes on very big gum trees. Some ladder work and tree climbing involved.
Mark and Melissa did the hardest work here, helping us gain 18 caches with unusual D/T ratings, for us to add our names to the logs.
Finished with a Mystery cache, and a traditional on the way into town.
Thank you for the much needed Multi caches I need for a challenge.

Another fun weekend caching expedition for the 3 Stooges (Cheezel1961, WayneAPN & weredunn4), targeting more of the OYB series and a few more for a bit of variety, with the odd bit of treefishing or tree climbing as well.
Really enjoying this wonderful series out in the bush!
Cache found and log stamped!

Another impromptu trip away with the other 2 Stooges making this the 3rd trip targeting the OYB series as The Three Stooges clan

Just as predictable as the TV series, plenty of laughs, banter, one liners, Dad jokes and frivolity had by all.

What a wonderful series this is. Just thinking of the effort gone into this. The number of cache containers, log sheets, collating them, finding hiding spots, GPS co-ordinates, entering them on-line, maintaining them and the list goes one.

A great series for not only the Geo-art but also the different D/T's

Plus a few other tree fishing and interesting D/T combinations gathered in our wanderings

All finds today, all in good condition and relatively easy to find. Think today was a PB for finds.

TFTC SL

Nice trot into the bush.

This weekend almost didn’t happen as weredunn4 had a kayaking trip planned, but it fell through.

So here we are, the 3 Stooges WayneAPN (Larry), weredunn4 (Curley) and Cheezel1961 (Moe) off on another adventure, our 3rd time here collecting more of the OYB series plus a few others we come across.

A great day out, heaps of banter and laughs with great company.

It didn't take long to find the WP though it could have.

What do bees and geocaching have in common...? Answer: GZ.. but fortunately far enough away that we didn't bother them and vice versa. TFTC SAGEO_5.

Muggle65 and l had a few days off after Christmas so we drove for a couple of days to grab a few bikes. We chose DTs we needed which were some low ones for the Muggle. Thank you for the fun

In amongst looking at selected “On the Bikes” we are also taking on some of the Multi’s that populate this area.

We headed to Swan Reach where we stayed at the caravan park and used this as a base to do the caches within this area. We teamed up with DiMorgan to do this series. This section kept us on our toes with a variety of hides at various elevations

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

We have now moved to Swan Reach staying in the caravan park.
Day3 We have met up with Tassie Trekkers to do cache together.
Started very early this morning but pleased with the amount we found.
Such a big variety of caches of caches found today, we were able to fill another of out DT grid.
Thanks for placing this cache.

Like Millicent many plans had been hatched to get to the bike but lock downs and or lock outs had thwarted all efforts. Realising people's schedules the Millicent and Bike raids were separated. This time we elected to drive and pick up a number of LGA’s along the way. The team consisted of B@W, Crash 2079, PPE and Tardis 0061 so logs were often signed as BCPT which could also stand for Bike Cycling Power Trail amongst other things.
We had a few other targets along the way and plenty of TOTT between the Jeep and DB including the inflatable yak often known as BD2.
We did a bit of community maintenance along the bike including those that had dropped for some reason from their lofty heights. Generally we could see the original cable ties so could restore them. Wet and flooded conditions made things tricky at times including the dirt roads and the raid was on and off. Some days we couldn’t dry off until night time making for a potentially grumpy cyclist. Plenty of emus around the Hay plans and a few Roos here and there plus a number of hares along the bike doing their version of being a speedy bunny. Despite the conditions, the bunch executed the plans pretty well. Certainly, a mammoth effort to put out so many caches and hopefully the community helps with the bulk of the maintenance. TFTC.
The multis were an interesting challenge and a number of the hosts along the way are not holding up so well.

Day 4 of our geocaching frenzy in SA with bellaatwaggy, Crash2079 and Tardis0061.
This series was a welcome respite from the SA Bike series, with loads of tree climbing and TOTT shenanigans

Most caches were found in good order. Sorry for the generic log the sheer volume of caves has has made it nessary cheers

First full day of caching from Swan Reach with iluvtrekking. Loving the quiet rural roads and the scenery. Thanks SAGEO_5

Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.

Ticked off another leg of the "On Your Bike" series along with a few others along our route.. Thanks to SAGEO_5 for the enormous effort to set and maintain the series.

Catching up with late logs we missed from our recent trip

We were in Swan Reach for the purpose of completing The On Your Bike series and as we had arrived a day early we decided to try our luck with this series of caches.

We had a planned meeting time of 1.30 and we met up with Becknmonts, McLookers, maccamob, pprass, pacman,suscoe and Phetlern

These multi's are a bit different from most we have done but we really enjoyed them all and the scenery along the way was stunning. We were happy that each cache was located and contains our name.
To save room in the log we signed as Vic+N (pprass from NSW)

Many thanks SAGEO_5 for a small taste of what is to come over the next few days.

GT37 and I were very pleased to be invited to join in on the group assault of OYB series and for those that had arrived early, this was an added bonus. We managed to make it just before the entourage left the meeting coords. We had a great day in lovely surroundings.
Thank you for all the work that has gone into placing and now maintaining this series. Please excuse the generic logs.

Papi4506 and I were invited to join the group that were taking on the On Ya Bike series starting tomorrow. This get together was organised for those that might arrive early. We had gone for fuel this morning and only just made it back in time.
It is a really lovely area out here and we were both grateful for the invitation. Thank you the group for the invite and thanks to Sageo 5 for placing and maintaining this series.

We found this cache on our warm up day before the start of our On Your Bike series the following day. There was a cast of about 20 here for this find. Thanks from D & HA B-A

Found at 1:43 PM in the company of the gang that attacked the OYB series the next 3 days.
While waiting for the whole group to arrive for the OYB assault, we headed off to do this series which was appealing due to the D/T ratings.
Thanks SAGEO_5.

Heading to Swan Reach, McLookers and I stopped for this cache. Thanks for making our journey far more exciting! Thanks for placing the cache SAGEO_5. We signed the logs as VIC+N

Around the world, in days, months, caches or whatever has been severely curtailed, by Covid, the last couple of years, so it was exciting to spin around the world today as part of the VIC & S & N Caching Coy' members from Victoria, NSW & SA.

Thanks SAGEO_5 for creating this interesting series for the gameboard.

Found while travelling westerly. For this group pf caches there were a team of us and we found all of them!

Found in a large group of mainly Victorian Cachers with one from NSW, and very occasionally one from SA. Signed as Vic+N and occasionally Vic+N+S.

Many thanks to SAGEO_5 for the cache.

An afternoon outing today for Suscoe along with a wonderful team of fellow cachers.
We signed the log as Vic, N and S.
It was a sunny and quite warm afternoon.
Lots of fun was had along the way.
Thanks SAGEO_5 for this series.

The compiled contingent made quick sticks of this multi series today. With such an excellent skill set, collaboratively we worked well together with a varied range of TOTTs. The logs were signed Vics+1N. Thanks SAGEO_5.

Found by Mary and David at 13:45. Another quick TOTT ascent. Our thanks to SAGEO_5.

Day 31 of our southern trip. We are Team "4 for QLD" - RoddyC, hatzofff, Snickersallan and Grannysmith1947.

Our bike hunting group was a little depleted today with only four of us out together. There was four in another car who headed off in a slightly different direct to us. Funny thing is we met up twice as we cached our way around the area. Any cache containers or logs that needed replacing were replaced. Over all we had a fantastic time today.

TFTC SAGEO_5 Day 3. of our On Your Bike adventure. We again teamed up with Muff1, to tackle your On the Bike series. We had spent a lot of time in and out of Lockdowns doing jigsaw puzzles to find the required numbers. Out on the road now. Today was a combination of Wherigo, and multis along with some. Traditional caches. A great day on the hunt.

This was the second deviation from the plan. We travelled up this stretch of road to complete the Round the World in 81 caches located here.

Cache number 12893

Adelaide and South Australia Trip Christmas 2021/2022. Day 14. The next phase of my journey is underway. I am in Loxton with Fitzy_1965, MinnieK, Sol de Lune and Smitten Granny to attempt to finish the On You Bike where-i-go caches. We have managed to solve them all before we arrived. Day 4 in the River land. There were two phases to today, first Sol de Lune, Smitten Granny and I went out and did the first 100 On you bike caches, as MinnieK and Fitzy_1965 did them last year. Then we all joined up and started the Multi series 'Around the world in 81caches'. Wow was that a challenge. So many trees and such small well hidden containers. We had to seek help on two, but eventually all the ones out here were done. We also did the traditionals and a puzzle in 'Bakara Conservation Park'. Remember, more water next time !

This trip to Loxton had been a year coming as I had missed out last year due to other commitments. The group had increased and the target list of caches was much higher. It had been a group effort to deal with all the jigsaw puzzles and then the Reverse Where-i-gos were sorted out with the various online tools. The trip was looking at risk as the COVID situation stretched and stretched, but at least SA kept to its plans to open the borders and we all jumped through the hoops required to get across the border. The weather was looking extreme as the journey approached and it did not disappoint. The daytime temps were from 36-42 over the days of this exercise and it made for some hard work and lots of water usage.

Thanks for the cache SAGEO_5

Day 5: SA/Vic Christmas holiday trip

Last Christmas holidays, fitzy_1965 and I (along with two geo-kids, Death Killer & my_name_jeff_1) headed to SA to visit family whilst we could, and to collect as many counties and caches as possible along the way. We decided even before getting home that we needed to go back. The added incentive of more On You Bike series sealed the deal. Fast forward through 2021 (because who wants to remember that), and here we are again. This time with extra company in the form of Sol de lune, Smittengranny and albida33.

At the start of today, we collected some caches around Loxton before venturing a little further afield for the Around the World series and solved puzzles in the area. This was exhausting in the heat of the day and the dust of the roads, but we made all the finds we went looking for. At the end of the day, we made the decision to pack up a day early and head back across the border to do the Paddle Steamer…..and to air conditioned accommodation instead of continuing to camp in tents!

All caches were signed as FAMSS and were found quickly and easily unless otherwise mentioned.

26,182. Found with minniek, Sol de Lune, Smittengranny and albida33 during our post Christmas / New Year trip over to South Australia and Victoria to tackle the On Your Bike and Paddle Steamer series among many other caches.

Today we started by finding some caches around Loxton, then went for the Around The World series and some more solved puzzles. A lot of the Multis were certainly hard work, but all were found - sometimes using the appropriate TOTT - unless otherwise stated. Signed as FAMSS. This was another long hot day.

When minniek and I were in South Australia in January this year (2021) doing the On Your Bike series of (then) 100 Wherigo caches, we were talking to the CO who mentioned that a whole lot more were soon to be published, and they were - 512 more ! So once back home we set about solving all those new ones which was at least something to do during 'stay at home' orders effecting us. Then once they were all solved we planned a trip over to grab them. Then just to add to the fun the latest 152 were published just in time for us to spend time solving them all so we could get the whole set. With our caching friends Sol de Lune, Smittengranny and albida33 this series was our main aim, but with the 'Around the World in 81 caches' series, various solved puzzles and the Paddle Steamer as standby if we got the time.

We managed some BIG days caching and finished off the On Your Bike series in three days, then attempted the mammoth 'Around the World in 81 caches' series and some lovely high/rare D/T caches - all in searing summer heat peaking at over 40 degrees ! Once they were finally completed we headed over to the Mildura region for another two blistering hot days doing the Paddle Steamer series. After camping for five nights we finally relented and got hotel rooms for the last two nights and worked the air conditioning to the bone.

All in all an amazingly fun time was had, and we have all made room in our calendars for when the next part of the On Your Bike series is published - no pressure ! Highlights included many of the fun tree climbs, the pole caches which increased our skills at the recovery and replacements of those styled caches, and the relaxed times and banter around the camp site at the end of each tiring day - including New Years Eve !

Thanks to all the COs for contributing their caches to our fun times, and I must apologise for the generic logs as we did find well over one thousand caches which now require logging !

After finishing up the last 100 in the On Ya Bike series, Smittengranny, Albida33 and I met up again with fitzy_1965 and Minniek to give these multi's a go. Certainly a lot of effort to get the ones we did, with lots of ladder work and searching for both WP's and GZ's. A few had us stumped for a while, a few took a while to find...and we certainly earned the DT ratings on each of them.

All logs were signed FAMSS, for fitzy_1965, Albida33, Minniek, Smittengranny and Sol de Lune.

Thanks for the series SAGEO_5. Great to see a series of caches where the work required to find them was a little harder then the usual.

After Sol de Lune , Albida33 and I had completed #1 to #100 of the On Your Bike series, we met up again with Minniek and Fitzy_65 to spend the afternoon finding multiple caches in this area including this one. Each cache was signed FAMSS. Thanks to all COs for the placement and maintenance of these caches that contributed to the success of our trip across the state borders during our Christmas New Year break.

as we have a look around the area this was one of the caches we found

A good day was had while grabbing these caches
Thanks SAGEO_5 for placing them

Georode got some of these on his last visit and we headed here today with Karicka to hopefully find a few more. Thanks for the cache

Start of another long day, but it's going to be an interesting one, nice to grab some good multi's before stepping up a gear.

Even with the numbers being down it was great to attend a Mega and at least get to meet some fellow cachers after so long and catch up with a few people, we flew over from Tassie on Thursday and after spending a few days in Adelaide we headed Northeast to clean up some series and then head South to Millicent for the start of the Mega long weekend.

This trip has changed so many times since it was first booked and I'm glad we got to do it at long last, to start with it was just myself and GooseandEgg nipping over for the Mega and then it was a few more days with the addition of 1 toolman, then with lockdown it was back to two of us but then another Tassie cacher in the shape of BudgieTas stepped up to the plate and we were back on for an over a week trip to grab a few caches before the Mega and then finish off with Millicent before flying home on the Tuesday.

Thanks for the cache.

Found on 29/09/2021 at 8:57:00 AM thanks to SAGEO_5 for placing this cache for me to find.

This was part of a cache finding run of 335 caches in the day. What a long day it was starting 6 and non stop until the rain hit as it turned dark.

Thank you for the series, it was a tiring and rewarding day

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Early in 2021 I received an invite from GoosenEgg and Stainless Steel Rat to join them on a caching trip to the Mega in South Australia. As planning got underway some caches with high Favorite points, very old caches, and the On Your Bike Series were listed as "must-dos"

The trip ended up being 10 days of solid and very enjoyable caching with quite a few highlights. The find count for the trip was around the 950 mark when all GCA, Adventure Lab, and GC caches are included. The high point for finds was a day of 335 finds in the one day, which would have been more, but a sudden storm put the end to caching for the day. No one was interested in getting out of the car to find a cache in a downpour in the dark

We were lucky enough to find Gawler Fort Knox, Dustin's Cache, and my favorite for the trip Barossa High (From 21st of January 2001 with the original log book still in place) all in the one day.

Unfortunately, the caching around the mega was beset by bad weather and the day we had put aside for Mount Gambier was scrapped due to a covid case in Mount Gambier on the previous day, so we avoided the area. We all enjoyed the Fishing series and just managed to get the remaining of these before the light failed for the day.

In the end I managed to completed my D/T grid for the first (and possibly the second time) which was my aim for the year, although some of the D/T combinations were not really achievable in Tasmania without a 3 day overnight bush walk.

We had a bit of a run on some of the Around the World in 81 cache series, before heading back to the On you Bike series on our biggest day yet, setting a target of at least 300 finds for the day.

The Millicent Mega trip had been a long time in the making, for the Tassie trio of stainless steel rat, budgietas and gooseandegg, due to a couple of false starts thanks to COVID19. More and more caches were added to the extensive list as planning was being finalized. We focused on old caches, large caches, certain D/Ts, virtual caches, the On your Bike series and a few other special ones on our journey. Our route saw us caching in Adelaide for a few days before heading north via Gawler to the Barossa in preparation for the On your Bike series, whilst basing ourselves at a gorgeous cottage in Waikerie. We continued on to Renmark for a night before the long trek south to Millicent.
Some of the many highlights along the way were Gawler Fort Knox, Dustin’s Cache, Barossa High and Riverland (the oldest surviving geocache in South Australia).
At the Mega we caught up with a few of our caching friends, made some new ones, and of course missed many who could not make it this time. The weather was not the best in Millicent, and a COVID19 situation in Mt Gambier altered our plans but we had plenty of caches to keep us busy between showers, including tree climbs, plenty of adventure labs, and the entertaining Finding a Fish series - giving the new pole a good workout for the first time.
Thanks to all the CO’s who have placed and maintained all these caches that made our adventure so memorable.

Enjoyed a day away from home, watchng the river while eating lunch, looking at the crops and spotting some wild life - including a sand goanna guarding a cache

Today was a special day as we were targeting particular caches with the aim of lifting the number of different D/T ratings found in a day. The ladder work was done by ilook4geo, while lesser terrain ones were good for me. We did achieve a lot in the day and were happy to stamp both names on each log to record our visit. Thanks go to SAGEO_5 for being a part of the hunt for today.

Had a good day today looking for some needed caches, along with goingplaces2, to fill in some spaces on the D/T grid. Managed to gather a good selection and had a lot of exercise getting to some of them. TFTC.

First day of our stay at Waikerie for the June long weekend. Found some loose caches as well as a good section of the multi-cache Around the World Series.
These caches were found after a quick or long search and in good condition, just a couple that had wet log books.
A total of 33 for finds for today and 1 DNF.

Found on a great day out with sir spectre, mogni, allister w, Michells&hound and CPwanderer.
This was our target series for the day.
Some of these were quite tricky to spot even with 6 sets of eyes looking. We found them all eventually and I enjoyed driving around the area.
Logs stamped today as Mystery Randoms to save log space,

found with Gizmos Gang, allister w, CP Wanderer, Mogni and Michells&hound and all logs stamped today as Mystery Randoms to save log space. This series was the target for today. 2 cars stopping at start point along the trail then slowly trying to find the cache. After spying where the start cache was hidden, then only half the time getting the cache with out the aid or a ladder or free climbing the tree/structure, only to repeat the same exercise at the final. Like the CO states " Warning, this is NOT a power trail and may take considerable time to complete!!! " It seriously would have helped if the cache holding the co ords for the final was at the same terrain as the final. You would have thought with 6 people looking we would have gotten though a bit faster than we did. I also wasn't expecting " some " of the multi's to end up in the national park below the trail. Lucky for us the road in was dry, it might be more interesting driving in after heavy rain in a 2wd. Surprising the only fauna we saw all day was some parrots. All caches were found ( eventually ) . Some a lot quicker than others. The co ords for a few of the finals in the middle of the trail where damp but still readable. It was nice not be be the main ladder man for the day, that honor went to Allister w. Allister w was also our driver for the day and as usual i was navigating. The couple of puzzles and wherigo was solved before we left. We left in the dark and got home in the dark but as you expect, there was other caches apart from this series found today. A long fun day out.
It's mad may. I have to get 15 multi's on calendar day's in May and that month only has 31 days. Now down to 40 multi calendar days left for the year.

A great day caching with CPwanderer, Gizmos Gang, Michells & Hound, Sir Spectre and mogni. I enjoyed the drive around the area with some great sights and spots. I also got to climb the ladder a couple times throughout the day. A great team effort to get about 30 or so finds. TFTC

So another JAMS weekend was planned, sadly the J was away so instead we brought along CPWanderer and Gizmos Gang to make up the numbers. Due to the change in team we cached as Mystery Randoms. Our target a series of multies and what ever else crossed our path. All of our targets were found.
Thanks to SAGEO_5 from mogni

Completed the Around the World caches today with Sir Spectre, Michells&hound, Gizmos Gang, Mogni and allister w !!!!! Certainly no drive bys!!!! ............................. Six sets of eyes gave us the necessary edge to locate the well hidden first and second stages. We started at the northern end and worked our way towards, and then into, the Bakara Conservation Park!! Thanks SAGEO_5 for the challenge!! We signed the log with a combined team name of Mystery Randoms.

Today a big Jams day out was planned to collect the Around the World Series.
We were without JJ52 (rudely off on a 6 week interstate jaunt) and joined by CP Wanderer and Gizmos Gang, so we evolved into the Mystery Randoms.
Great day out collected 39 caches for the day, found lots of tricky multies, sis a fair bit of scribing and thoroughly enjoyed the company.
We had perfect Autumn caching weather. We found all caches we looked for which was even better .
Thanks to all the CO for their fun hides, next time back to finish off the pesky bike series.
Some of these hides were very tricky we needed a fair bit of help even with 6 sets of eyes looking.
TFTC and series enjoyed most of it but had a bit of a sense of humour failure by the end of the afternoon!

A plan was made to go to Adelaide for a long weekend to start on this beautiful series. A had a priority list of about 150 caches that I planned to find, mainly due to the good TD rating which will boost my loops records.
Flights and a hire vehicle were booked and luckily my status with the airline is quite good so I had three pieces of luggage I could check in. One for the fishing pole, one for the ladder and my normal suitcase...
During the three day stay I was able to cache for a total of 25 hours and found just over 400 caches. What a great outcome. Only a couple of DNF, mainly because my ladder was not long enough.
I enjoyed the time a lot it is a very nice countryside and great powertrails along quiet roads.
Thanks for setting up such a great series and making me a happer Geocacher for a long weekend!
Hard to do this series as a solo cacher.

I was part of The Mob (consisting of GoodLook, The Drovers, FurfacesLL, Rapidlywild, feathertop and myself) and this cache was found while on a caching adventure with this fun bunch.With varied skill sets and TOTTs available within the group we tackled a range of caches during our time away. This series was completed alongthe way.TFTC SAGEO_5

A plan was hatched with Rapidlywild to attack some of the caching trails down in VIC/SA.
With the boarders slowly staying open we thought Easter might be a safe time to try since the QLD boarder was still too fragile to attempt going to the MEGA and it also looked like it could be rather wet there.

The group grew from two to six quickly after having a chat to GoodLook about our plans.
Our team “The Mob” now consisted of GoodLook, LíB, Rapidlywild, The Drovers and ourselves and feathertop joined us on day 4. This team ended up being very productive and some new friendships were made. Always a bonus in my book.
All logs were stamped with “The Mob” to save space and time.

Day 6 After finishing the On Your Bike series we headed to the Around the World in 81 caches, although not quite 81 caches only about 23 or so and nothing quick about this series of caches. Found all caches in good order today only replacing a couple due to the sun and weather making the cache containers perish.

Thanks for all the hides in this mini series SAGEO_5 and thanks for the fun "The Mob"

For the first time in a long time, it was road trip time. With COVID-19 keeping everyone at home for so long, the borders were finally opening and the feet were itchy for a decent caching trip. Plans were made with FurfacesLL to do a 10 day road trip across to Mildura and Loxton to do a heap of caching and we were excited. Across the 10 days we racked up over 4,300km in driving, multiple hotels/motels, brought home enough red dust to create our own sand pit in the back yard and collected over 1800 finds between us. It was a massive trip and lots of fun was had.

We teamed up with GoodLook, FeatherTop, The Drovers and LiB and signed most logs as "The Mob". There were a few caches which were signed as individual team names as some teams had already completed said caches, those will be noted individually.

Our target caches were the Turtle Series, the Paddle Steamer Series and the On Ya Bike wherigo Series, heaps of other caches were also collected along the way but our primary target caches were completed which made us all very happy and very tired geocachers.

Onto day 6 and back out onto the On Your Bike series we go to finish it off. Once we had finished that, we made our way to some Around the World multis, Riddlers Roonka/Ode to JLWE Series, the TdU series and even managed to do the TdF series! It was a big day. We picked up a few caches along the way, travelling along the way was GoodLook, The Drovers, LiB, FurfacesLL, FeatherTop and myself.

This series of Multis sure did take a little while to complete, but fortunately with a team of people working together, and a range of TOTTs at our disposal, we got through them in a rather reasonable time.

Thanks for the hides SAGEO_5 And thanks to "The Mob" for a trip to remember [^].

Day 3 in the area, and after completing the bike series, we then moved on to the following series:-
Around the World in 81 caches
Riddlers Roonka Rampage Challenge
Ode to JLWE
TdU series
and a few of the new ones in the TdF series.

We stamped the log as 'The Mob' to save space and time.
'The Mob' this time included:- GoodLook, LíB, FurfacesLL, Rapidlywild, feathertop & ourselves.
Many thanks for placing this series, SAGEO_5, for us and others to find.

This series is certainly a difficult one! So pleased we had a group of experienced cachers including tree and ladder climbers, AND a 7.5m ladder AND a 12m telescopic pole!

Most of the caches are stamped as The Mob (consisting of The Drovers, LíB, FurfacesLL, Rapidlywild, feathertop and myself), however a handful contain our own caching names or initials.

The series that we tackled during this trip included The Paddle Steamer, The Turtle, On Your Bike, Around the World, The TdU, The TdF and some Roonka puzzles put out for a June Long Weekend some time ago. Plus many random caches that we passed.

2020 was not a great year, and the beginnings of 2021 have also been tricky - so when it looked like the various borders would be open again (without quarantine restrictions), a trip was spontaneously planned and I was able to pull together a number of my caching friends who hadn't cached together before to form "The Mob".

LíB and I started in SA, drove to Victoria and ended our trip in SA; FurfacesLL and Rapidlywild came from Canberra and The Drovers began their journey from NSW; and then a few days later, feathertop from Victoria, joined us to complete the On Your Bike Series and other caches in SA.

We filled our days with piling in cars, hard core caching, Adventure Labs, crazy funny CB radio chatter, some laughter, some tense moments (OMG some of the ladder and tree climbs on this trip were crazy!), lots of lovely meals and even live music from a band called "Kung Fu Jesus" - nope, that is no joke.

We had hot weather each day (well into 30s), so I am thrilled that I now own a car fridge to keep the drinks icy cold (loving them at about 1 degree celcius).

A sincere thanks to SAGEO_5 for placing this cache.

Day 3 of the trip began with bikes and then moved to the 23 around the worldcaches.
This is not a power trail and it took time. Slow drive in to the bush at times and ladders employed as well when needed.
A bit puzzled by the numbering system but all caches found. One cache replaced due to old age and cracking.
Thanks for a variety of DTs and cache types in this small but absorbing set of caches
We stamped each log as 'The Mob' to save space and time.
'The Mob' was made up of GoodLook, LíB, FurfacesLL, Rapidlywild,
The Drovers and myself.
Thanks sageo_5

Today we left Barmera to tackle the multis in the 'Around the World in 81 caches' series before continuing the Bike series between Wunkar and Bakara Conservation Park. A big day of caching with great weather conditions before heading down to Swan Reach to camp and get a well earned counter meal at the local pub. Highly recommend the meals and service there.
23 'Around the World in 81 caches' in total.
101 'On your Bike' wherigo's in total.

Thanks SAGEO_5 for both series, it is a great excuse to come back to this area to explore new locations as well as old.

After we've spent the night in Waikerie, we've found some of the "Around the World" caches.
We found them all easily.
