Great Northern escape 2022 Day 178. Blackwood Day 2. After a family morning, I decided to spend a bit of caching in the west of the city area by Port Road. I fixed a DNF from last year and found a few areas I have not been to before. A nice warm day to be out and about in sunny Adelaide.

After finding a parking spot, I walked around to this cache and managed to find the cache.

Thanks for the cache The Big Ditch

First attempt and first one I've found.

I started caching in Dec 2017. It must have been 2018 when I discovered GA existed, and as this was my nearest to home, I walked around the corner and made the find. I dont remember when, so just took a walk around there again, and it is right where I remember it was. Thats scary. I read the log and I found my name on 19 Oct 2018. Strange, I also stamped it, I must have only recently got my stamp. Thanks for the cache Skoonys, the cache is in great shape (2023). James has bad handwriting.

Something strange happened today. We headed out towards the city, only to discover that the caches hadn't loaded properly from GSAK. There should have been over 1500 caches available for us to find, but for whatever reason, this cache is the only one found on the GPSr.

It was fairly obvious where we were going to go to find a cache, and we're glad we did. A neat little cache in a cool location.

Thanks Skoonys.

I found myself heading under the ditch tonight on the return journey from another cache, and decided to make the quick stop for this one. Many, many spider webs did not thrill me... Shocked, but I managed to spot the hide late at night and claim the find. TFTC Skoonys!

We parked around the corner and walked to GZ where we found a well camo'ed cache container tucked away safely from prying muggle eyes .. the cache and contents where in good condition. Thanks for the cache skoonys

I drive a community bus down Junction Lane once a month and thought I might be able to grab the cache whilst out on the bus, but the bus does not fit around here. Laughing
Came for a lunch time walk, parking some distance away, and made a nice quick find.
A fun little spot to watch the traffic in the ditch. Smile
TNLN, TFTC skoonys

Cheers Cool

The strange little road that leads to this cache was part of the attraction to place it Dancing

Found It!
Yay! FTF at 12:30pm! A quick find in the first place I looked. Parking is an interesting challenge. There are two parking spaces only meters from GZ - working out how to access them is a challenge in it's own right!
