Container is very waterproof, finders just need to put the lid back on properly!!!!

On our way back to Crafers West we noticed this cache near by so made a short detour and soon found it. Like the previous finder over 12 months ago we found the container had quite a lot of water in it which we emptied out. The log book however was only slightlu damp and had been protected in its zip lock bag.
The views of the surounding country side from this cache were superb.
Thanks for a great caching experience Four-Fun. The cache may need checking as it appears not to be water proof and there is evidence that the area can get quite wet.

Found It!
Indeed that is one great view! First time I've ever driven along this road...
The cache had quite a bit of water in it which I emptied out. The logbook was fine inside the plastic bag.

Touring Australia having left Perth in late February we are leisurely touring South Australia.
Currently camped with our Caravan at Kuitpo, we have been weather watching all week. As we attended the dinner event in Adelaide last night it was a late night for us so a late start for today seemed in order After lunch a plan was hatched and a quick loop away from our camp was undertaken. Lovely area with some great vistas and of course so many wineries.
Absolutely stunned that it's been 2 years between finds here.
Cache has been very wet, but we were able to sign the log.

Awesome views indeed, and a fun road in from the West to go with it. We found the cache in the obvious spot, and added our stamp to a slightly damp logbook.
Thanks four-fun.

Spent the morning around Kangarilla and McLaren Flat as the caches seem to have been breeding over the last few months.
Great view and the dams are full. TFTC.

Was passing by so decided to stop and grab this one.
Didn't realise at the time it was a GCA cache and droped a TB into the cache (TB3BHK8).
