Great hide

Found without lid but still in good-ish condition

Thanks for the cache

Found the lid from an eclipse tin where I think the cache should be. Like others before me I finished up crossing the road then coming back to where I started.

Adelaide Trip. May 2021. Day 6. I spent the afternoon between Marion and Brighton today. Plenty of new caches since I was around here last, and 10 Labs to get as well. The nice weather after a few days of rain had the fore shore quite busy, but they did not stop my activities.

after my walk around the wetlands I headed over here. I was someone who found the original cache here, and I was happy this one did not take as many visits to locate.

Thanks

Wow. We had a challenge .... cross the road ..... cross back ..... stop in the middle ...... Great hiding spot. Great clue '4'. 6 year old felt around the rail and found it. Log book good condition. We'll done.

I reckon, from the hint, that I found GZ, but couldn't locate the cache.

I'm certainly missing it, but I do wonder if it may be missing!

Thanks for the challenge, Ghostoowalks.

couldn't find it. very good possibility that a muggle has taken it though.

Found 18/2/18, logging it 7/4/18.
This had troubled me every time I drove past. Finally with some time on my hands, I had the chance. Located exactly where I wasn't expecting, it was not as hard as it appeared at first. Hidden deep inside the railing, right up underneath the white rail, near the screws. It makes sense when you see it.

Staying in Adelaide for a week we have been focusing on finding some GCA caches and this was one of them. Have driven around the outskirts of Adelaide on previous visits to SA so nice to stop this time and let geocaching be our guide.

Easy find once at GZ, cache and contents are in good condition. Thanks Ghosthoowalks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Been here with another cacher a couple of times, and we're just not having any luck finding it

Thanks for the cache Ghosthoowaqlks. I came from a certain direction and had already deciphered the hint and i walked to a position on the bridge and looked where i need to and i was 2 inches from the cache. So this took me less than 5 seconds to find. The tin is still in good shape for its age but will soon need to be upgraded. Great hide in a great hiding place. I was over from Perth to my hometown Gawler for a funeral and after all my many visits back i have finally started getting some GCA caches south of the city. I did these caches before flying back to Perth today.

Well that was a way easier find than I was expecting! I can't believe I've put this one off for so long.

We were lucky to be on the correct side to start with, and the hint all made sense with some careful observation of the area. Found it in the first place we looked at. We're so very glad we didn't have to be under the bridge as we had first expected.

Thanks Ghosthoowalks.

We were travelling along this road today and I was lucky to make a quick find

Wow, this cache is now over 8 years old. Pretty good going for an eclipse tin near water, but I guess being GCA the log-book will still keep going for quite a bit longer.
I enjoyed a lunch time walk along the path hear doing some capping and grabbing this GCA. The water was flowing, and looking down thought the duck in the water was dead but the duck was instead laying down flat in the shallow water to eat the growth on the bottom on the waterway. Took a few minutes to make the find, but as I got closer the hint made so much sense, and was really a cool little hint
Grabbed the cache and wandered over to the nearby seating. I doubt that was here all those years ago; as I couldn't remember the seating when I found the nearby mystery cache years ago.
After replacing I wandered into the Fitness centre to use their facilities, and then realized it would be over 30 years since I last ventured in the doors to play indoor hockey over summer - an overshoot of hockey that was only short-lived with the addition of artificial surfaces in Adelaide.

Found It!
After several visits to GZ and some emails to a past finder I have finally found this one! And in hindsight it seems so simple - how did I miss that so many times???
On the plus side, I did stumble upon the puzzle final across the road!
TFTC

This one has been on my hit list for quite a while. Because I'm in the middle of developing a GCA Publish Logs macro the need for a GCA Trad find for testing purposes the need to find this one jumped into the high priority category.

I'm very pleased to say the cache is in good condition despite being unfound for over a year. Managed to find myself a small bonus while searching as well!

TFTC Ghosthoowalks!

When we were on one side of the road, our GPS clearly indicated that GZ was on the other side. When we went to the other side, it indicated that GZ was towards the middle of the road. So we started to search in what we thought was the most likely area and after a minute or two, the cache was in hand. The cache and its contents were in good condition. TFTC

i would walk over a bridge and the GPS was telling me i was getting closer but then it told me i walked straight past it so this leads me to believe it was under the bridge somewhere. The bridge was fenced off so i couldn't get under so i didn't find it.

Hi Hartlie

I don't live in Adelaide anymore, so i can't check the cache for you. I can assure you that it is not under the bridge - a breach of the rules - but if it is still there you are on the right track of it being under something. I thought that might be a handy hint if you happen to be standing, perhaps in the the middle of the bridge sometime.

Good luck - and I hope it is still there for you!

Ghosthoowalks....

Greetings from Tasmania

Found this cache while on a caching trip to Adelaide. Found some great caches while there including a 5 difficulty traditional (I'm a Bastard 2), a 4 terrain traditional (Tapleys Bird) and many great hides in great locations through out Adelaide. Thank you Adelaide cachers for planting so many good caches. My wife did ask me to pick a favourite, and I think Besser Block Mail Box would have to be it, by Tamam Shud, Zen and the Art of Geocache Maintenance and the two above would be up there as well.

I did manage to find 250+ caches in the 5 days I had caching in Adelaide, and would like to thank Astro and Freddo for taking me on a night cache on the first day and Astro for giving me a couple of hints on some that I was stuck with.

Let me apologies for the generic log, especially if I have found more than one of your caches.

I've probably been passed this spot hundreds of times since I knew there was a cache here; however I have not stopped. Sometimes because it's during the day and way to busy, other times because I was not quite sure where to look. With Waterlogged as a guide to narrow it down, it still took a while of going back and forth to make the find. TFTC

3rd for the day, nice and easy, good little hide.

Finally got around to stopping and finding this one.
Every time that I would drive past the cache I would think about stopping, but never had the time as always going somewhere.

Had a boys look tonight and with a torch. I didnt find it the other time as there has been some cache creep and it is not where the clue indicated. Moved it closer to where it probably should be. TFTC.

Found it ..Thanks

One of the nightcaching series. A nice and quick find. Luckily no muggles were in sight when retrieving the cache. Thanks for the fun and the cache.

Joan found the cache before me.... SL. Thanks Ghosthoowalks for organising the cache and hunt.

I remember when this drain used to be a creek! Second visit to locate the GCA version of another nearby cache. Thanks for the cache Ghosthoowalks.

Had time today while passing through the area done the other one last week but didn't have time to do both anyway its now done..

TFTC

An easy find this time, when not looking outside the square! Was 12m from a new chemical cache!
TNLNSL
Thanks

Found easier with the help of the hit, after getting dirty hands checking the other possibilities. TNLNSL, thanks.

At 2am, with a half hour to spare before your due at work, what else do you do but grab a couple of GCA caches [^] This was stop #1
Cheers

Silver for us. Tried to find on way home from work but couldn't park on Oaklands Road. Went home grabbed some of the team and went back.
Easy find.
Know the cache your referring to as it had us stumped for a while.

TFTC

Went as soon as we saw this one tonight. We searched and searched but were unsuccessful. Returned after we found 'Fire it up' and lo and behold - found the cache! Can't believe we didn't notice it there before!

Thanks again Ghost!

Some days the gods of geocaching smile on you. Some days they fart in your face. Today they were smiling, and the cache was in the first place I looked. Woohoo - FTF!
