Fountain Valley Reserve Happy Valley, South Australia, Australia
By Jamms_SA on 17-Jun-23. Waypoint GCAA6YP

After a DNF here last time, I returned today and found it quick quickly. Not sure how I missed that previously. I found your D2.0/T2.0 Micro Traditional called Fountain Valley Reserve on 23 Nov 2024. It was find #19287 for me. Thank you Jamms_SA for placing this cache for our enjoyment in the wonderful state of South Australia.

Quick scurry down to GZ and an easy find! Thanks for the hide!

Deja vu hits quite hard here so this was a fairly quick find. Got a fright when a small huntsman was attached to the cache! This is a local park we walk past regularly. Thanks Jamms SA for placing and maintaining this cache for us to enjoy,

Today, there was a huge number of ducks in the lake. Thanks jamms_SA.

Tftc.. did require a 2nd visit.

Logging as a beta tester. I think I grabbed a suitable logbook and conatainer form my car while attending an event nearby.Thanks

Logging this one as a Beta tester as I was at the CITO when the cache was placed and as part of the Jamms_SA team.

No luck with this one

I have a sneaking suspicion, a strong recall, a dim distant recollection, a striking resemblance, a prior knowledge of this little waterway. What do you know, something very familiar. Thanks for the cache Jamms_SA, quick find and sign. Find #9125 at 7.01am

We came and searched for your D2.0/T2.0 Traditional today, but it didnt reveal itself to us. Even though wed both found the previous incarnation.

Hunted around at dusk for this one for about 5mins, thinking it might have been muggled, then eventually found it. Log signed

Logging as a beta tester. I was part of the group at the CITO when the cache was placed.

Logging as a beta tester. The original cache at this location was archived and the JAMS crew where here for a event and a group decision was made to replace and relist this cache.

Beta testing this cache as we where here when it was placed and signed the log

Today Courtneyrose_ and I headed south to attend 2 events and go to Mclarenvale for lunch, we decided to do a few new caches along the way dodging the thickness of the rain as we detoured our way through the streets

Thanks for the cache

Headed down to the southern suburbs for a few hours of caching after attending the South West Breakfast 11000 event and the O'Halloran Hill Lookout CITO V5. Thanks for the cache Jamms_SA!

Found the cache where I last found a cache. Deja vu
Pity maintenance wasn't done for the CO on the original in this spot, resulting in it being archived! Instead we get a new cache in the same spot, in the same holder, next to the same park.
Thanks for the additional smiley...

SA’s Leap Year Event - GCA1DNA - keep the date free - 29th February 2024. Can’t wait!!

Clever spot in a nice park area. TFTC.

After coming down to Woodcroft for a FTF, and as the weather was very nice decided to spend the day down this way after a few selected caches. Got as far south as Seaford and ended up with 14 caches, mainly traditionals but a few multis and puzzles as well, before it was time to head for home.
A quick find of a familiar style, it's nice to see Lava mounts being recycled.
Thanks to Jamms_SA for putting out this cache.
Cache #13649 for me.

As the result of a CITO, I happened to be present as the prior cache in this location was archived, and a replacement was created. Logging now as a beta tester. Thanks to the quick thinking/acting JAMMS_SA crew for keeping this example of the famous Lava12 caddy in play. No geese!

Nice and moist underfoot at GZ, and plenty of water and ducks in the lake. Quick grab on the way home.

Logging as a BETA tester. Found this whilst at a CITO on a cold rainy Saturday afternoon. TFTC!

Cache was eventually spotted once the right angle was achieved.

Seems not everyone at the recent CITO was a beta tester.

TFTC

A quicker find than the last version, although I found that in the pitch black! Nice spot to visit, lots of ducks today and thankfully no geese TFTC Jamms

I got notified of a bunch of new caches down in the southern suburbs and decided I would try for just one to continue the daily streak. However, I haven't chased many FTFs in a while so I decided I would go for all of them despite the heavy rain and forecasted thunderstorms.

Most know this pineapple doesn't get cold so easily so it was no worry to get them all.

I ended up with 5 FTFs for the day in the suburbs of Aberfoyle Park, Morphett Vale, Happy Valley, Blackwood and Belair. I ended up with wet hair and fully soaked clothes but was worth it.

I arrived at GZ and slowly made my way down while trying not to slip on the muddy surface. I remember the previous cache here so a quick find was made. Area still nice and clean by the looks of things.

Thanks Jamms_SA for this cache and FTF, which brings Goldy's total find count to 3208 on the 22nd of June 2023.


CITO's are a brilliant way to help keep our community area's clean. The Earth is our playing field and we need to protect it!

Always be sure to cache the "leave no trace" way!


**South Australia is the place be for GCA1DNA - February 29th, 2024 in Adelaide! Hope to see you at The Great Leap Forward!**
