#GA5765 - 2:02:00 PM; Day three of "The Great Leap Forward" road trip. After spending the night at Tailem Bend feathertop and I set off for Adelaide, collecting a geotrail near Monarto as we passed. It was then on through the city and north to Two Wells to collect some LGAs as we went. Collected this cache after we headed back south and then east towards Gawler. feathertop had no problems locating the cache and our names are now in the log. TFTC 2y'stassies

Finding GCA caches today and this was one we found. Nice to find a fellow Tassie's hide. Cache was wet, dried it out and returned.
Many thanks 2y'tassies for placing this cache.

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

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.

A quick stop with budgietas and stainless steel rat as we triad to add a GCA cache from each LGA we passed through. Dry logbook added
TFTC - a long way from home!

Be great if co could replace the logbook as the current one is waterlogged
Dropped a small logbook in to try and help out in the short term

we pulled off the highway to grab this one, logbook is soaking wet unfortunately, we place a spare on top to show we were here
thanks for the cache

No sneezing today

A nice quick find as we headed up to the Barossa Valley today. No sneezing occurred during the caching of this cache.

Thanks 2y'stassies.

I was at an event today in Nuriootpa, and I had these two new GCA caches on my mind to do on the way home. I was quite interested in all the water meters nearby, not really sure which property they relate to but I guess it makes it easy for the water meter readers!

Thanks 2Y'stassies for helping grow the GCA map in South Australia!

Have fun finding the cache.
