Not enough time to maintain this cache, let along cache in the last two years!

probably floated away by now, and the owner hasn't logged onto gc.com since Dec28th 08!

We found this one but it really does need some maintenence. Log book is full, lid has dissapeared and so everything is damp.

Oh oh dear. I did not realise that it has been archived but I found it easily. Of course it need maintenance. Thanks for the cache. [^]

Will have to put this one out of action until I can attend to it.

Found, but as others have said, the cache is in a bad way. Although the log book is currently dry, it is rapidly disintergrating, difficult to write on and difficult to get in and out of the cache, and the lid is missing. Its not going to last much longer in this way!
We were lucky that the area was muggle free today.

A dnf for me last time (with muggles not helping) I managed to get this one this time after a reasonable search. It is in a bad way - the lid is gone and the log not writeable. I added some new paper but that may not last long.

Great hide, well done. Third attempt at finding it, this time with minimal li'l feet on the ground ( one child). Waterlogged ( again, according to the log) and we couldn't leave a message. Perhaps inversion and 90 degree shift in orientation would help?

Log is dry, now, but has been very went previously.
Nice hide TFTC

Took a little while but eventually I found it !

Found at 17:45. The book has obviously been quite wet. The most telling sign ironically is that Waterlogged's writing had bled through about 10 pages - so they all said "Waterlogged".

This was our third try at this one and we were know closer to finding it when Team Spanner come up with the goods.
Gr8 hide

cheers

My second attempt on this one. After reading all the notes we knew what to look for but really shouldn't have needed to. It's all perfectly simple once you find it. For some reason this one gives people lots of trouble but it shouldn't. With Blindshambles and the Geosniffer on a nice warm day. TNLN Left the log on a piece of paper. Cheers and thanks.

OWNER- The logbook was very wet. I have taken it to dry it out and will replace tomorrow.

Another day.

Another very wet log book and I am sorry we didn't fix. Spent a while looking in the trees for this one and then decided to trust the GPS. Thanks EmZee Wild'rs

Waterlogged found a waterlogged log book.

Found this little one on my second visit, GPSr had me in the trees last time.

Thanks

Took a while to find, it didn't help that there were people hanging around the Fire Station. We found it in the end. Only one more CFS to find. Thanks EmZee, we've enjoyed searching for your caches.

Accompanied with Everlasting. Found it. Thanks for the cache.

Go Team Blackwoodcc!

Find number 1267. Found while on a mad 24 hour dash with Mr MadMyers and Everlasting doing the driving. This cache was one of our 189 today. Thanks for placing the cache for us to find. Cheers The Nanks

Well the MadMyers and TheNanks have seen the CFS trucks!! We got evacuated out of the caravan park due to a grass fire. Got to the end of the park just about - so we saw lots of the CFS trucks driving in and out of the park. Up Brown Hill Creek road - lots of police cars - helicopters hovering overhead. All very intersting but scary at the same time. So we say thanks to the CFS they sure worked hard the other day. We found the cache - thanks for the fun.

Ah, there it is!

A quick find, but we kept one ear out for the siren.
But although it was a hot day, no fires around here.
Thanks, Robmc.

Another one on our way out of the SA big smoke. Fortunatly no smoke today. Many thanks

Found the cache at 5.30pm. have been search for while... SL. Thanks EmZee Wild'rs for organising the cache and hunt.

This was indeed a tricky hide. The previous logs helped us to keep looking. Thanks EmZee Wild'rs

A tricky little hide. After my failed hunt on my last visit I sought a hint and still it was a challenging hide to locate. Thanks.

The last one in the series has proven to be the difficult one for us. Looked everywhere but no luck.

With a clue from EmZee found it right where we we looking this afternoon. Just needed to bend the back. That completes the series. Thanks EmZee.

A quick dash to the CFS and the cache was quickly discovered for the team. Cheers Gav [1489]

Finally getting around to logging the record breaker Thanks!

Kiwi Cache Raid: #92 @ 10:13. Thankfully no action here today. Many thanks EmZee Wild'rs.,,,,,,,,,

10:13 a.m. This cache was found on our record-breaking attempt to find the most caches in a 24 hours period; we ended up finding 195 all up.

Thanks to all the cachers who placed these interesting caches in Adelaide.

I only wish we could have spent more time appreciating the locations that we visited on our whistle stop tour.

Kiwi Cache Raid: #92 @ 10:13
Research paid off.
Thanks to all Adelaide cachers for helping with our quest.
Cheers - M@

10:13:00 a.m. A quick find by the NZ cache record team.
Thanks to all Adelaide cachers for placing these caches to allow us to get the record.

First of our fire station caches, a few more would follow.

A cunning but obvious hide. TFTC.

Got it, Got it, Got it!!!! another one for SHMBO1, and in the first visit too

Finally.

I've been here a few times but there's usually someone around or muggles walking past.

With a hint from Astro we had a quick find today.

Thanks for the series, good to get this one out of the way.

Took a little time to find. Liked the gnome. TFTC

Procrastination is a marvellous thing. Should have been studying for finance exam on Tuesday. Oh well.

We feel that we didn't do too badly as this was only our second visit to this site. Almost gave up when Klem came up with the cache and a smile. One of 3 nemesis caches that we found today. Thanks for this series EmZee Wild'rs.

FINALLY!!!

I believe this was attempt number 4 or maybe even 5! So much for a 1/1 cache! Very satisfied when we located this one! This goes down as one of more memorable finds for sure! TFTC!

Found this one with Master Darko. This was my third visit to the cache-site and boy am i glad i dont have to visit it again

Nice to knock over a nemesis cache. Of course I could do the alternative like I am and just move away from them! In this case it was found fairly quickly and no idea why I didn't spot it the last 2 visits. That's life and caching I guess. TNLNSL, cheers.

Found this one on a quick run around the area to grab a FTF on the latest darko cache

Dont know how i missed this one last time

TNLNSL

1610 hrs 5th and last FFTD of the series.
By chance this station was selected as our last. We had been expecting another easy find – but not so! However we persevered to get the final in the series and our last for the day. GPS readings were fairly erratic but eventually, after several passes, we homed in on the GZ.
Thanks to Mrs A’s excellent navigation through the hills we completed the series in a little over two hours.
TNLNSL
Thanks EmZee Wild’rs for a very enjoyable series and a pleasant drive through the hills.

Oh, this one has given me so much headache. Back for the second attempt, this time in company of The Batgirls but left empty handed AGAIN... Grrrrr....

Coords are spot on. That was my only hope. The bottom of the siren tower is green. TFTC

We decided to do the series today as a school holiday treat for the girls.

Only managed 4 out of 5 with Eden Hills getting the better of us.

The arrow pointed us inside the building. Gave it a very thorough search but couldn't find it. Will be back.

found with youngest member of polkys quest... little sammy. great simple series for the younger members. thanks from polky

Found by Mary & David at 1635. The last of the series for us. A bit easier today without the muggle interference we struck yesterday morning. There were a few others parked further in at the playground, but they weren't a problem. This one proved to be the hardest of the series to find but, in the end, the coordinates were very close. Our thanks to EmZee Wild'rs.

Looking to finish off the series in about 90 minutes but a muggle parked near GZ forced us to give this one a miss. We'll return another day.

Knew what I was looking for, still took a while, Sneaky hide, TFTC. I used to go to Blackwood High School across the road in the 70's.

Found today while keeping a watchful eye on the local constabulary parked down the road. Well hidden TFTC

Another that beat mne this afternoon. Thanks. ALbida.

This was my fourth trip here, or was it the fifth? This time I brought Noleen along to see how difficult it was. As I was explaining where GZ was and where to look she calmly said "There it is" .... I spent hours, she takes 20 seconds!

found while out and about with dad for the day TFTC

11 of 17 found and 1 DNF today
Everyone was out at these facilities last time we visited but it was all quiet today.

We arrived and looked and looked and looked. Then the muggle police turned up! The geo kids were getting a bit worried at this point as we had to answer a few questions. But we were soon back to it and alas, still no cache. So we went up the hill into Blackwood and grabbed the hills CFS cache. Feeling inspired, we returned to Eden Hills and snaffled the cache quite quickly. Thanks for a fun evening.

Add Sushilord to the list of those that have DNFed on this cache! I'll be back to get this one.

Found!! Received a hint from a previous finder and headed out this afternoon to complete this fun group of caches. TNLNSL TFTC. Cheers & happy caching.

Me too!!!! should've checked recent logs.

I'll add my name to the list of people who can't find this cache . Better luck next time [?]. Hopefully [?]

Well today I could have done with a hint. The satellites were somewhere else today so the starting point was pretty dodgy. A few muggles around too. I didn't feel very comfortable hanging around this place as what else would it look like to others, other than being up to no good?

ROFL Our first cache in 3 months and we couldn't find it... We shall be back...

Took me two attempts to find this one! - On the first visit, I was expecting it to be as easy as the others in the series! Decided to open my mind a little, and found it on the second visit! Thanks EmZee.

Really not the place to go during school holidays. Did other caches and then came back. Kids not around by then but searched to no avail. Found a likely spot but came up empty handed. Don't know if it was a decoy or not. Will watch future logs and have another go at a later date. Thanks EmZee

Third in the series. On a sunny Good Friday, had the chance to get this, as well as some others before family lunch. TFTC

This one was different from the others, did take sometime to find.
TNLN
Thanks EmZee Wild'rs

No 3, Go Skippy

I was obviously following Richary today, and like him, I couldn't find this one.

DNF.
End of the CFS list for us, but stumped by this one for now.
It might be gone, given this is the 3rd DNF in row, so going home to suck on a mint and think about it

I, E

Looked around wherever the GPS wanted me. Went back to the car to study the logs but still no joy. I might have to look at the photo mentioned in the logs before next visit. I will be back! Thanks.

Yes, Winterdrangon’s picture reminded me of this one. Certainly the most difficult of the series. Cruel in fact. If the siren was sounding, forget this ladies and gentle men. Drive on.

There were staff present, but luckily we arrived between 7:30 and 8:30 pm. Dancing with the Stars was on. We were safe. Go Tatiana! Oh, The magic and glamour of the ballroom [^]

Thanks for this one EmZee Wild'rs, Clear skies from TeamAstro

Ah-ha, found at last little cachey.

Found by Team GeoCoopers.
Located an folder full of old cache photos, nearly 1000 days down the track (Nov09) and I've finally got around to logging the find. This one was at 2am on a night cache with Piggy.
Thanks EmZee Wild'rs

A number of tries to get it and went back to the start... found it

Cheers
Miss Jane

Found easily about 330 am on a night cache run with TGC. Cheers.

Took a mans look to find it.
Of course having a torch at night is a great help too...

Found 17:00. Arrived at GZ just as 6 Police cars had dived on the place to disperse a group of youths at the near-by skate park, very exciting . TNLNSL. TFTC.

This one took a bit longer, got there in the end. TFTC

Fourth of the series found at 9:02. A deviation from the theme but a quick find regardless! Thanks EmZee Wild'rs.

I think I can see the cache in Winterdragons posted pic! [:o)] [:o)]

Ahh.. the sneaky one!!
Once the GPS settled down it turned out to be a quick find

GPSr wasnt being nice to me here. It said i was standing next to the cache on one side of the building, and still said the same thing on the other side

Couldnt hang around much, as there were too many people in the nearby park, and didnt want to look suspicious

Will return soon

FTF the whole Sturt Group CFS series, on an early morning drive through the hills. Great theme, and a nice drive! TFTC!

went into this one arrogantly thinking it would be easy... after all its a 1-1. but it eluded us for the 25 minutes we searched... with two gprs's is it possible it was muggled after the FTF???? having done other four of series this one was very different if it wasn't muggled. will find out in time I guess.

This was the most difficult hide of the series but still found fairly quickly. Left home at 11.25, five caches all found and log signed by 12.12! Try and beat that. We are happy cachers. Thanks EmZee Wild'rs for the series.

Actually found this one quite easily, followed the arrow, right to it... Not so sure I could've come up with an explanation as to what I was doing if sprung whilst retrieving the cache!!
2nd find of the series, and sorry to disappoint the Stanleys, but started the series at 1730 and had signed the last at Cherry Gardens by 0812! And wasn't speeding!
TNLNSL Thanks
