Easily found the cache.......And it's very real spider guardian. Thanks for the hide!

Found it

I had to improvise today and tried various things until I found that a pair of pointy scissors can be used like big tweezers. I have now caught up on all available, not found Contact Zero caches have smiles. Thanks James for fun and challenges today.

Got it

Found it but could not get the cache it was stuck and did not have the right tools

After coming here some months ago and not having the right tool, online I went bought a new TOTT and today came to GZ, cache removed signed and replacedWith all of today free I decided to head out to the western suburbs to find some of the new caches published. Thanks for the cache

Found on the way to attending the Meet the Dutch, Adelaide event at Henley Beach. Thanks for the cache ContactZero!

I tuned up thinking I had the tool I neededbut I didnt! Another cacher Pie-Mum saw I needed help and provided me with a very interesting tool that did the trick. TftC and TftHelper!

After an early trip to the Port, I was heading back this way to go grocery shopping, and thought I would stop by. I got to see a train, like most other times here, so that was a bonus.Having been here before, I knew what item to grab from the car before making my way to GZ. Quickly found and retrieved. Although a little marked on the outside, the inside is perfect, log sheet in good condition, about half the back still available. Thanks again for this cache Contact Zero, love your work.Find #9545 at 7.37am

Two Confused looking Puzzlers planned a Wednesday Wander.Ttrogg picked up the Rat from her nest.They headed towards the city, then west and north.This one took a bit to retrieve the cache.Luckily we had the right TOTT for this one. No muggles around today. Tftc

Found it with pie_mom and makingpie. Luckily we had a TOTT. Even then we needed to hold our tongue just right! Tftc

Another find here, thanks to a tott. Out with pie_mom and off with the faries. Tftc

Thanks Contact Zero for this tricky cache. Sadly this has been my third find at this location. Pity about the previous one's being muggled. Fortunately had a suitable Tott but still not an easy retrieval in the dark, but at least no muggles.

Found It!Didn't take me long to see this one but then had to extract it from it's hiding spot. I created a tool out of some local materials that managed to do the job and I soon had the cache in hand!TFTC

Down for the day with Mattycat attending three events and any caches around the area this was one of them, tricky to extract but duct tape soon collected the logTFTC Contact Zero

A bit more post leaping caching with Jack and Froghoppin... A little deja vu here as we've definitely cached this park before!The frog soon spotted a likely spot and extraction was soon achieved. Magic A fav for not using a mint tin! Thank you Contact Zero for this cache hide and ongoing care and maintenance ---------------- ----------------------In a dangerous world filled with rusty old mint tins and solid caches falling from trees - - - a cache a day keeps us agile... sort of --------Caches are logged using the resources of gsak, garmin, and androids, occasionally AI too! (And a little rubber stamp ) Work gets in the way - and some may take longer to log than others due to mixed technology and need for sleep! The skill and talent of some Zenior Zombies helps, and maybe a spot of luck too [:o)]----------Cache carefully and make sure Travel Bugs are the Only bugs you share and pass on Clean as you go and cache the countryside Big thanks to those placing quality caches out and about around our country areas, in nice safe places and containers especially! - it keeps our game fun for all Of course we do appreciate if you actually did read all this extra addition to the log word count! There's a challenge somewhere out there, or so we've been told! You win a virtual smiley for the effort and getting to the end of the log Maybe if I worked out where it is I could do it and go back to normal logs again ! If you find the challenge let me know and perhaps we can put an end to these long logs !!! Maybe not though - as someone actually did read to the end and alerted me to just a project GC badge that requires long logs [:o)] Well at least it's not as bad as finding a mint tin! Did you get that... stop putting out rusty mint tins, just stop it, now!!! C'est fini... For now... ... until tomorrow!

Found with FUF009 while caching in the area. Tftc

Find # 13822I'm in the Adelaide area for the Great Leap Forward event. Not just for the days event, but making it a week long trip of caching n catching up with mates.Found with sharkiefanSigned as FUSHDay 6. Still in the area..... today just going around picking up icons on the map and the odd high D/T.TFTC Contact Zero

After checking in at the Mega site and chatting to a few people Michells&hound, allister w and I headed out to find a few of the close caches that we hadn't found before heading back for the sausage sizzle. After the sausage sizzle we headed out west to find some caches that we all hadn't found.I had been here before so I knew exactly where the cache was going to be. Lucky for us M&h has small fingers and she was able to retrieve the cache without any other TOTT (which we didn't have)!Thanks for the cache Contact Zero.

After manning the sausage sizzle at the Mega we headed out for an afternoon of well deserved leap day mega caching before The Side Event. This is one of many caches found this afternoon with JJ52 and allisterw.Luckily I have tiny hands so was able to retrieve this one for the team TFTC ??

Found with Michells&hound and JJ52 while at the mega. Michells&hound was our TOTT. TFTC

Tricky to extract. Used natural TOTT. A fun retrieve.

Adelaide Day Now camped at the West Beach Park to attend the Leap Day Event.Today was caching up & down the caost from where we are camped. A few AL thrown in as well.It's always nice driving along the seaside.Thanks Contact Zero for hiding this cache.

Found it but didn't have the correct tool will return at a later date

One of only five found while over this side of town. But I did get five AdLab stages as well.There was certainly a feeling of deja vu when I retrieved this one. While I certainly believe in recycling, I'm not sure if it should apply in using an old log in a new cache. In theory there was no need for me to find this cache and add my stamp to the log as it was already there. Now it's there twice.Thanks to Contact Zero for putting out this cache.Cache #14661 for me.*This log composed and published using GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife).*****SAs Leap Year Event GCA1DNA - keep the date free - 29th February 2024.

Found it Ive been here before, twice I think, mysterious platforms have transformed in to traditional forestsaka the coloured mint tin by the sea peopleaka Minty ManTFTC Contact Zero

I came here the other day but was ill equipped.Today I returned but I was starting to think I was ill equipped again.After about 15 minutes I managed to grab hold of the little sucker.TFTC

Very interesting cacheMy first attempt failed.i could feel something in there, but my attraction wasnt strong enough to lift.So a 200m hike back to the wagon for the strongest attractant I had.aaarrrr that did the trick.But now to get the blimmn thing out of its confines, took a bit of wriggling, turning my head to one side etc but hit there in the endLog stamped and all returned to its sneaky little hiding spotAwarding a favourite point hereTFTC

Not quite nine and three quarters. But nine and one quarter. The event horizon is always the issue. Spaghettification not possible here. Thanks Contact Zero and clear skies from TeamAstro.

Having found the previous incantation here, I reckon this v2 is gone...

TFTC ??

Finally. Normanville SA & I visited a couple of days ago with what we thought would be the right TOTTS but alas no good. Came back today with modified TOTT & yah slowly but surely we extracted the cache. Tftc

TFTC joint effort with the Erin,couldnt do without TOTTS.Caim before but had to go and get TOTT.

Published

Cache extracted and log signed

I have found this great cache before but found and signed again today.TFTC!

I saw this cache published with a cluster of new caches. I solved two puzzle and went back to work. About lunchtime I had another task to do nearby. The cache owner will remember his recent DNF. Oh this cache is still unfound. Wandered over to ground zero and soon worked out why the cache had been archived and republished. I see what you are doing here. I waved my special wand and said the magic words. Shazam. A wizard appeared and offered me the cache. I signed the log, which I think I have signed before.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.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. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.
