###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

This cache is carrying one or more logs which suggest some attention by the cache owner is needed.

The guidelines advise that the CO should make occasional visits to check on the cache as well as promptly address any logs that indicate that the cache requires some attention. If you can not attend to the issue promptly, then you need to Disable the cache - I have disabled it this time.

Please respond to this situation (or indicated your intentions including a date) within **28 Days**, otherwise it will be necessary to withdraw the cache from the Active listing. The [Geocache Maintenance guideline](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable ](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

Nothing in the ghost tree

Cold Sunday afternoon drive and walk with the geo-pup. Found the diary, but in a tree 10m from the coords. Definitely needs a CO check and maintenance.

TFTC. Needs to be refreshed though- definitely add a plastic bag to protect the log, and even get a new log perhaps.

The foursome of Geo -animals decided on a night Wednesday wander.
The Snake picked up the Rat and they headed into the CBD, to meet up the Mule and Starfish.

This was one of the many caches for the evening.
We parked the geomobiles.
The Rat quickly spotted the cache and retrieved it

Stamped the logbook and returned the cache back to it's hiding place.
We had a night of fun, laughter stories and adventures. Tftc
 
19-Jan-22
Time for another Wednesday Wander for members of Befuddled Puzzle Solving Group in search of solved puzzles and anything else we came across. [^] Today we waited for AnyMules to finish work, I picked him up and we met up with Blackadders and SA Sewer Rats for a night caching run albeit we started in daylight! Cool

Quick find, quick stamp, quick leave - nuff said! Smile

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. Twisted So once again I will trying to get the other two this year. [^] Should be easy as I only have to get two multi caches in July from the lockdown and couldn't get out. [:o)] The other was DNF's that came down from over 50 to the low teens before blowing out again but I really want to see only single a single digit this year. Cool

***Thanks Herb_Berb for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin

The usual Wednesday wandering was conducted as a night run to target city hides and others where muggles were in bed making parking much easier.

Tonight we had the honour of a Mule joining the Adder, Rat and Starfish.

A very quick log as the container was easily seen in an obvious location.


Thank you for the cache Herb_Berb, found 19/01/2022, 6:36:09 PM

Mr Tardis was in the area, and stopped by here to find a cache.

I found the cache in the first place I searched - don't you just love it when that happens?

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Herb_Berb.

After event caching with Dr Owl. Being a 'temporary' resident in SA I haven't really been keeping track of new caches. I walked past here the other day but didn't bother looking for the cache. Today the cache was found in the third spot we looked after following the GPS to a likely looking area, then one tree and finally another tree some 15m from the given coords.

Thanks for the cache Herb Berb.
 
31-Dec-21
An easy find once I was at the right tree or was that the left tree?? TFTC. Happy New Year
 
31-Dec-21
Having ventured out into the heat of the day with Sushilord, they cleaned out a few green boxes before expiring. This one took a while as it was a micro, a bit away from the coordinates and only the hint had them at the right place.
 
28-Dec-21
I was here on 10 October and it was clear the cache was missing. I pushed the button 2 months later and the cache has been reinstated. Thanks to the CO's maintenance, I have now turned the frown upside down. Thanks for the cache Herb_Berb, glad to have this DNF rectified.

Today was my second to last opportunity to bolster my annual find count. I started with some owner maintenance, a couple DNF revisits and onto the southern suburbs to gather some numbers. I found myself in Lava land again, always a delight to be in amongst quality caches. I was further enthused by encountering the home nest of hides from weredunn4, what luck. I lost some time replacing some neglected ones but on the whole it was a super day, called short by the phone running out of juice and me not having a portable charger. Thanks to all CO’s for todays fun and adventures, no death noodles were sighted, and all muggles I encountered were happy to chat.

Found It!
A quick find here after waiting for a kid and their parent to leave.

Went for a drive. Stopped and found your cache. Smile

Wasn't in the obvious spot but was obviously in another spot [:o)]

Yep... that's more of a "micro" size than a small... Twisted

Thanks to Herb_Berb for placing this one on the Adelaide geomap Cool

Merry Xmas and I hope you get a chance to find some great caches during the holidays.
Try sorting by "Favorites" to see some interesting ones nearby Wink

Looking around every day locating and logging using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Whereyougo, Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S20+, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just plain old dumb luck WinkCoolBig Grin Quite a bit of that indeed !!!
*Logs are composed and published using GSAK of course.*

Please do stay safe when caching.
Keep a lookout for bogs, snakes, surprise cliffs, boxing roos, wombats, bulldust, and floods,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- but especially lookout for bugs from alpha to omega !!! . [xx(]

Ensure that Travel Bugs are the only bugs you share and pass on Big Grin
Now our borders are open - even more important to sanitise and safely distance!!!


We do really appreciate all those placing quality caches out and about around the countryside,
in sensible safe places especially!
it keeps our game safe, fun, and interesting Cool

Returned to this one today after a previous dnf as i had seen a found log and i happened to be in the area. Found the rather uninspiring cache in the location that matched the hint rather than the coordinates. As there are only a few log entries i assume this is a replacement.

!
 
11-Dec-21
Will try again

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Might be worth the CO having a quick visit, approaching 3 months of DNFs

Looked and looked and looked, but like others before us, had no luck [B)]Sad.
We'll be back once we see others have found it Smile.
Thanks anyway Herb_Berb.

There is a painted rock here but no cache.

No luck after a long search....found a tree that matched the hint but still no joy!

Unable to find this one today

Well that took much longer than it should have. I needed to Widen the search. Tftc

Driving down the street to the cache I was reminded of an Elvis Costello and The Attractions song.

Alison, I know this world is killing you
Oh, Alison, my aim is true

A quick find once a muggle family moved on. My aim is true.

I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count.

The cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

Easter 2020 was supposed to see South Australia Geocaching hosting the next Easter big MEGA event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Due to COVID restrictions the event is now postponed to early October 2021. Check out the event page and our website for new details. We would love to see you at this four day event. Mega event sponsored by Wattle Range Council, Geocaching.com and many other supporters. Lots of caches to find with two classic geo art trails including the famous animated bottle and glass.

This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...

Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Was running an errand in the area and stopped by on the way to make the find. Parked nearby and wandered over to GZ and quickly spotted the cache. Extracted the log, stamped and then reassembled and replaced as found.
Gratias pro cache Herb_Berb

Another afternoon down south after my usual traditionals and this was one of the caches found.
A quick find after reading the description and the hint, things I've been known to ignore until having trouble finding the cache, am learning slowly Big Grin
Thanks to Herb_Berb for putting out this cache for me to find.

This wasn’t a quick log for me because I was stuck searching in the wrong area with a different kind of hide in mind! I decided to broaden my search and read the hint, suddenly I found it! TFTC.

A quick stop by this quiet park this evening no one was around so a quick find was had and the cache was all good

This evening with a night off work I decided to head south towards Glenelg and Marion area to find a few unfound caches in the area to top of a wonderful day of great weather, total of 17 finds for the evening

Thanks for the cache

I came here earlier in the day but kids in the playground meant that I'd needed to come back.

Come back i did and the coast was clear but as i got out of the car someone came and sat at the table. Back to the car and i waited until they left.

A quick find and sign.

Needing a find for the day I decided to head out after uni in search of a couple of caches. Having found a nearby cache I decided to stop past this one on my way home. I parked in an appropriate spot and made my way to gz and began my search. It was not long after that the likely hiding spot was found and the cache was soon in hand. The log was signed and I was on my way.

TFTC Smile

Had been to Murray Bridge for the day and I had some time to kill before a netball game so I decided to come here and find this cache. [^]

Had the park to myself and soon found the cache and stamped the log in third place. Big Grin

Thanks for the cache Herb_Berb. Smile

*FTF* at 5:20am on my way to work. I saw the notification for this cache yesterday evening and was surprised to see no logs this morning so a short detour was made and a quick find with the phone torch. TFTC

It would be good to be a scout here. No one about today - you’d have it all - even hot snags. Silver too.

Thanks Herb_Berb and clear skies from TeamAstro. ️ Cache the planet!
