Have been here 3 times, unsure whether looking in the wrong places or whether it is lost with Vivendi112
needs a co check as no finders in 7 months and there looks to be a favourite spot with someone as there has been a camp fire very near gz. don't think the cache is there.
Found it!
Be careful of the ants and spiders
Apart from that awesome Cache!
Felt very adventurous with this one

Kids had fun climbing around trying to find this one. Clever hide. TFTC.
Okay, that's one of the more clever caches I've seen. The ants are really busy (they don't stop for holidays), and some very interesting red beetles I've not seen before. You don't realise how up and down naracoorte is until you come somewhere like this. TFTC and Happy New Year!
Headed out on a caching adventure to and around Naracoorte today with TT016.
Drove up the hill then walked up the hill. Very clever hide...love it. TFTC Biggo

Took us awhile to find, but eventually we find the sneaky devil. Admired the view while we searched.
Thanks Biggo for the search.
Thanks Biggo for the search.
Taking the geo kids caching during the school holidays, while towing a 24 foot caravan. We'll take every opportunity to grab a cache, so unhitched and came up to this nice little lookout. Geokids where only too happy to do the climbing to grab this for signing.
Thanks Biggo for bring us here.

A favourite point for this cleverly colored container and a great view of the town. Our last Naracoorte find before travelling homeward: Naracoorte SA to St Leonards Vic multiple breaks and lots of smilies in 12 hours.
Our thanks to Biggo for bringing us here.

Stopped here for a view from the lookout. Took us a little while to find, but got there in the end.
Cheers and thanks for the cache

Found with Patrick 22 , Russell and Catherine . Went with the night suggestion - nice view of Naracoorte's lights but did add a difficulty level to search! Clever container. TFTC
Proved quite challenging this one! The map I had didn't show that Carthy's Rd runs off Sandstone Ave, so ended up sending Megan63 up some very rough track east of GZ. We got within 100m before Megan63 decided it was too rough. After a lot of fussing around with maps on phones, we found our way to GZ. Clambered up and down eventually found the cache after a long search. Camo was very clever! TFTC
Arrived at gz right on sunset...it was absolutely stunning. Thank you for bringing us here
We loved the container, very clever. We headed up in the day time as we were in town for an appointment and needed to be back home by dark. SL TFTC
With the local show on today it seemed everywhere we cached we were entertained by the music from the side show alley. Even here.
After a short but hot uphill clamber this cache was soon spotted.
A favourite point for not taking the easy way out with this container but making your own. Well done and thanks.

Took the rough road in and the better road out. Met Mr and Mrs Baby Gopher, who had just done the same. Lovely little hide, well created, thank you. Cache #1,962.
In Naracoorte with Genghicat for BLE2 & grabbing caches in the area
********************************
Think Genghicat was playing "damsel in distress" with this one. Couldnt find it, but as soon as I went to help....he spied it lol
Like others we did the rough track first & the better one out

Like others we did the "hard" way in and the easy way out. To be fair, I don't think we would have easily found the easy way in a hurry as the entrance to the road wasn't obvious.
Couldn't immediately find the cache, so Donnazev came over to help. But wouldn't you know it? As soon as she did, I spotted the cache. I still think she suspects a ploy to get her to come over.

Camped at Naracoorte and headed out doing some local sightseeing.
So much history in this area with the old buildings, churches, and railway lines
Better weather today than yesterday but still quite a chilly breeze.
Lovely spot and a great clever cache, but managed to snag a quick find.

Took a while to find. Great location wasn't what we were expecting. Thanks biggo
Clever little micro met up with some fellow cachers here and the prize was soon found with our combined effort TFTC
Spent a while looking for this one and about to call it when Froghoppin arrived on the scene, they located it quickly, great cache Biggo.
Nice to meet up Froghoppin

Geoson has a knack for finding these little ones. What would have taken me a while, he ran straight to it. Tftc and the view
No a good road to take a rental car on. A 4x4 would have been much better.
I flew into Melbourne on Sunday, rented a vehicle and am driving to Oz Mega in Murray Bridge. Of course I am trying to find some caches along the way.
Today, Wednesday, is is my third day of caching in Australia. This is my first caching trip south of the Equator, so I am finally getting some S's to go with all my N's. And this is my first caching trip east of the Prime Meridian, so I am finally getting some E's to go with all my W's. (My trips to Europe and Asia were before I took up geocaching.) Thanks for the cache. This cache is my find number four (4) for the day, and find number nineteen thousand three hundred ninety nine (19399) overall.
May all your days bring you more smiles than frowns . May your year 2014 be better than your year 2013 was.
Cache on!

Out and about with Tassie Trekkers doing the Naracoorte caches as we head to the Oz Mega at Murray Bridge. A clever hide and a quick find. TFTC.
Found on our "Making Memories" Tour of Mainland Australia.
Heading to the OZ Mega with whitewebbs picking up caches on the way. Staying a couple of days in Naracoorte and this was 1 of the caches we found. Clever hide. TFTC

# 7987 Found on the SA leg of our S.K.I.D.R.O. adventure,
while staying in Naracoorte for a few days.
Not many muggles around and a reasonably quick find on most of them.
A nice 4wd track and a top hide, plus a great view as well.
Thanks for the cache Biggo,

Not what I was looking for great hide. Deserves a favourite point. TFTC
Well I think we found it. A long green tube with wire attached laying on the ground with no lid and no contents. Had a look around and couldn't seen anything that might have been in it. Needs maintenance. Was with Nara Joey.
Found cache however it has been damaged. No log or pen. The lid has been damaged. But still seals.
Found at GZ, but was laying in the open. There was some evidence of where it should go, so I put it there. You may need to check that it's in the right spot. Tftcsl.2/06/13 13:34 Find #418

The geomobile was going to Naracoorte for a service. I decided I would turn the journey in a caching day. Aussie M&M were available so came along for the caching / ride. A slight detour into Victoria on the way home and fun day was had by all.
One last one in Naracoorte before we take the long way home. Bit of a climb but I got there and got the find in the end. Took the easy way back down. Thanks Biggo

I came in the back way and enjoyed driving upthe slippery hill. An easy find was made here.
Thanks for the cache Biggo.

A nice quick find while holidaying nearby, I am never sure why I have a van not a 4 wd I put this car through the test so many times for me. Thankyou for the hide.
Found on a slow and meandering trip to Mt Gambier.
The car navigator thought there were roads that were obviously long gone, but we got there in the end. Of course we took the long way round to the cache... as we always do. TFTC Biggo.

Gps lead me a little astray and just as I was thinking cache wasn't there I saw it. Once I knew where it was I could spot it from a long way off, good hide though. TFTC
