Dont Lose Your Head Glenroy, South Australia, Australia

No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

Searched for a while but fail to find it

We looked where we found it last time and found nothing. We then expanded the search with Skullracing and still came up empty handed.

Though looking at the owners activity log I don't hold out much hope of it being maintained so suggest it should be archived.

DazzPete say it all - DNF for us too. Lovely ornamental grapevine though which was vibrant red.....spectacular!! So not all was lost.

Gave it a quick look but nothing was found.

We didn't lose our head, but we lost our caching eyes for this one. With our GZ quite a bit off where other logs seem to indicate the cache would be, and verdant vines growing all around, we didn't have much luck today.

The rain started to come down for this one so had to give up.

It seems this cache likes to fall out of its spot quite a bit (by reading previous posts). Today I found it on the ground. You may want to check it to see if it's in the correct position and maybe see if there's a way to keep it in wouldn't want a great cache to be lost

Cool spot...found the cache on the ground (seems like it falls out a lot!) Think I put it back in its correct position. TFTC Ela21

found after giving up and heading back to the car - not sure that the cache was it it's proper location. mandikaye

While the kids were caving with Scouts, we did a Naracoorte caching run.

This one eluded us - even after a call to previous finders...

Cached & Wackys

Easy find with Geo-Grandies... Clue helped...
SL... TFTC

had us looking for quiet some time, we suspect the coordinates are out as previously stated by others.

Interesting location but no go on the cache after an hour of searching. A good micro is one which can be worked out, not just stumbled on. GCMelb

The find was made by geoP after the hint had us searching in the wrong spot, the find was finally made some ten meters out according to our GPSr. Still we enjoyed the search and it helped break up the trip home from geoDad's 60th birthday.

TNLN SL TFTC

Bummer and with 3 teams searching we didn't make a find today we will be back.

Found after a long search. Good hide.
TFTC SL

This was our second visit here, and without any muggles we were successful, although our arthritic fingers made recovery hard, we soon had it logged and safe;y returned to it's hidey hole. Muggles swarmed just afterwards and we jumped back into the rig parked nearby. TNLN, but Trecaz Trakkie TB visited.Thanks The Rizzos for the second of your caches today.

Found it as last great good hidden.Nice park history.S.L.

T.F.T.C

Spent about 30 minutes to no avail.

First find for the day.
Nasty little hide.
Found with the help of YRRAG.
TFTC

Wonderful spot great cache good hide and all credit to Tealby TFTCSL

found after a short search.(there is a pear tree near the picnic table which was in fruit when we were there needless to say we had a feed of delicious pears for the next two days)
TFTC

As mentioned in my previous log, a new cache has been placed as a temporary fix for the one that is missing - I hope you don't mind me logging the find - I had a previous finder confirm that this is the correct location. If anyone finds the other cache then they are welcome to remove/replace mine. Note that I was a week ahead of myself when writing in the log. This was an interesting little park to visit. I also hear the bar is open on Friday nights in the hall across the road!

Was unable to find where the cache had been replaced, so I brought back a previous finder (Urch) to have a look - she confirmed the cache was missing from its original hiding spot. We searched high & low & could not find any sign of the cache, so it has obviously been well hidden. Urch & I subsequently created a new cache container & hid it in the original position (see next log) - the container is a bit tricky to open (the bottom of the tube snaps off - it does not unscrew) - I hope this is OK with the owner & you are welcome to replace with something a bit more permanent.

Another find in the company of Bullocks01 with the human GPS doing his thing. This micro was laying out on the ground so was placed where the geo tool told us it should be.... Hopefully the next cacher will "nail it in their sleep".
SL TFTC

New log required soon - still enough room for a few more entries

Found with Fatboy86 around 3:40pm - on the ground!
What a wonderful little garden that I would have never discoverd without Geocaching. A new log is required soon, as there is only enough room for a few more entries.
TFTC - clever cache container too

Found it,"good hide found while a muggle was swinging his muggle child on the swings

Rocky Glen Grommets found this relatively easily but when we placed it back it kept slipping through so we tried hard to plug up the hole - hopefully it will hold. Thanks for bringing us here.

Again, we found the cache lying on the ground. We logged it and returned it to it hole but I fear it will fall out again very quickly.
Thanks Rizzo's

Found on The 2009 Adrian Mc & Swampy Caching Adelaide And Beyond Tour
Find # 97

Found on the Adrian Mc + Swampy 'Caching from Hobart to Adelaide & Beyond' tour.

An easy find as it was sitting on the ground.

TFTC

ggggrrrrr another micro.... what is it with micro's down this way? a great little park and today I had it all to myself with the exception of a lady talking on a mobile outside the church.... found after a brief search (just spied the end bit hanging down) when the GPS settled... TNLNSL cheers 4 da cache!

All right, Wookus must confess. Had to reveal my reasons for lurking near a couple of Muggles as they had their picnic lunch right where I needed to be. Very glad to find the cache so they didn't think I was a complete fruit loop. They were most interested in my quest and can be trusted to leave the cache in its intended location.

found with polkys quest!!! TFTC

easy find on our caching adventure to mt gambier!! TNLN TFTC

I kept me head about me in this little park, despite the frustratingly large number of places to hide a micro [:o]
At least the grapevines were producing fruit, so I got a bit distracted looking for the juciest grapes in between forays for the cache
Finally I did what the clue suggested
For a while it didn't help, then suddenly it did
TFTC and wander through this grape little park [^]

Stopped in on our way home from Naracoorte. Great little park. We picked up a pine cone from the Pine grown from a seed from the Lone Pine in Gallipoli - might try to grow one ourselves! TFTC.

FOUND ON THE GROUND AT GZ
PUT IT BACK IN HIDE

Locating GZ was easy. While looking around I though someone must have dropped their lip gloss, DOH then I realised it was painted black.
It was on the ground, I put it back where I thought it belonged, but its wasn't so stable.
It my need a look next time you are up that way.

Found on the second go, the first being stymied by muggles. Not sure that the hint heped or hindered but I got there. Nice hide thanks The Rizzos.

After a brief walk around and waiting for the GPS to settle down I had found the cache quickly and easily. A pity I couldn't stay around and sample the local produce!!! TFTC.

Well worth the visit but oh not another micro. Thanks

This park has so much history of this area have never look around here b4. We had a easy find as it was laying on the ground. Gathered it up signed log and i hope i put it where it should have been will see rizzo about location.
Thanx 4 bringing us here.

Found at 1630 on our Mt Gambier weekend. We were staying in the same street as this cache, so after sampling local wines [^] we decided we needed to find the cache. What a great park with great history.
Once the GPS settled it was an easy find in a great location.
Thanks for showing us the park.

As Deano said this was a wonderful park and the tribute to the gentlemen was a nice touch. I admired the work of the sulptures, very nice. Deano came up with the goods after a brief search, he is the micro master!

Thanks,

R - B

2Dudez and Team Rubik's Week Long "2008 : A Cache Odyssey" trip to South Australia.
I hadn't been in this town since I was a kid.
Looked at the wrong item first, but found quickly when GPS settled
A great location that is definitely worth stopping for.
Many thanks to the Rizzos

Found the cache at 2.30pm. Love this place and beautiful BBq Park - Nice easy found it and SL. Thanks The Rizzos for organising the cache and hunt.

Second visit to this one for me.
Still wasnt easy. At least it was dark and I had plenty of time to search.

well it took a while but we found it 10 points for the hide spent time putting it back as found good luck to others.
The bin collection guy thought we were a bit suss.

Enroute from Clear Lake to Millcent, we decided to stop off to try and find this one.
Alas, under the watchful eyes of a muggles kids on the swing nearby, and his adult miner who looked settled in, we had to give up after a short unsuccessful search.
We'll be back to the area and will have another try then.

Some famous heads here (and a strange structure).
Feathertop found this one while I was still looking for the best place to put the picnic. After a relaxing lunch, we were back into it.
Thanks, Robmc.

We made this our lunch stop and admired the works of art here after of course finding the well hidden cache which was quickly liberated from its hide. Thanks Rizzos

This little chappie took some searching... almost ready to give up and voila! there it was
Very happy to start side 2 of the log sheet.
Thanks for the hunt in this most intesting little park, Rizzos.

This one was well hidden took geokid an I some time to find this one what a great use for a small item that gets thrown away have to keep this in mind for my next cache.

Cheers SLTFTH

The rock Orb was amazing. It even has Aztechian steps leading up to it. Though the modern Rob is across the road. Wide angle captured both marvels...

The most amazing thing was the cache. Replacement skill is essential. I left it secure and safe.

Clear skies and our thanx to the Rizzos from TeamAstro.

Second DNF for the day, and both before lunch . Second try at this one, micro eyes still not in this morning. We will not be beaten!!!!!

Found 17:15. Last of 18 FFTD, and by far the sweetest. Third time lucky. Found by Mrs C while waiting for Mr C to return from the geomobile. T: Great pleasure crossing off this one off the list, L: feeling relieved (Literally!), SL. TFTC.

Found on our way back to Naracoorte for the night, the Ermies had unsuccessfully attempted earlier in the day, so we were suprised at how quickly we found it this time. TFTC

When we found this one it was on the ground. Filled in the log and put it back where it should be.
Thanks for a great cache Rizzo. Have been wanting to get up that way for some time to do some caching.

Tricky cache eventually found. TFTC

Didnt spend a hole lot of time looking before it was spotted, but I can see why some hunters could have [^]
Cheers, TFTH.

12th find for today Found @ 7:48am
Trevor came up with the goods, I couldn't find this the last time but the coords were better now
Thanks Rizzo's

Found by Mary & David at 1715. Who was it who suggested to John Riddoch that the area be called Coonawarra? Our family history says that it was Mary's great aunt Elizabeth (Alexander) who married John's son. Interesting park and memorials. Our thanks to The Rizzos.

This little micro popped out of its hiding place and nearly hit us in the face We found this while waiting for the toothpaste taste to go away so that we could go to Wynns TFTC

Another cache where the co-ords we had seemed to be wrong, had to phone a friend and were supplied new co-ords, did not help much, we had too far to go to spend anymore time on this one, spent too much time looking at the other GZ I first had.

Cheers

Yep, co-ordinates much better! Was standing on top of it this time!
A good little hide,
Cheers, Biggo

Twyla was heard to remark: "No way!"
Very cool hide.

With a bit of help from a friend (because I forgot where it was) I managed to find this one today.
Thanks

Sid TB passed through here while we adjusted the co-ordinates..

** Coordinates Changed From **
S 37° 17.468 E 140° 50.072
Distance From Old: 30.6 feet
Took another reading while visiting penola so hopefully this wont take you out on to the road!!

This was quite an interesting little park and would be a great place for a bbq. Luckily no one was making use of these facilities today in the cold wind so we had the place to ourselves. The cache was found after a search of the most likely areas.
Thanks The Rizzo's

Found at 12.00pm
An interesting little park
Like others, the hint had us in the middle of a road, but the hint helped heaps
Thanks
K&M

we also had GZ in the middle of road, we'll be back for another look next time

We were almost about to give up on this, with coords putting us in the middle of the dirt road, until the Stanleys turned up with a hint. Found soon after, thanks Stanleys! Returned to its hidey hole - there are so many possible hiding spots here.

Spent quite a while here on the way down to the CCC event and searched a structure looking for a micro. Got help from the locals so we could come back and be successful.

Pulled up today and there was someone there looking in the bushes. As Mrs S approached she could see it was Team Wibble. Once we used the information supplied to us it was a quick find. Thanks Rizzos

I will head down and take another reading!! It definately shouldnt be on the dirt road

last search for the day but no joy for us.

Had to work with a GZ that was in the middle of the road and which ended up about 15-20m from the actual location in the end.
We searched for about 20 minutes at first, then rain started so we retired to the nearby café for coffee and toasted cheese & tomato sandwiches [^].
The second attempt finally unearthed something that caught my eye and the cache was finally located.
We really loved the little park and were really impressed to be standing in the shadow of another Lone Pine pine. This is the second we have found through caching. The other is GCM4BH “The Trail of the Lonesome Pineâ€. Thanks for showing us this one Rizzos

Woohoo. Co-ordinates very good today. Still had to get a hint though. Lovely stop heading south. Vive le republic.

Co-ords are not out , averaged gps for 5 mins at GZ gaining a 4m accuracy in good conditions.

found after 1/2 hr seaching in the rain in completely the wrong spot. coords where 30m out???? but we where having a bad gps day so who knows... had to call the helpline

Another FTF for the day.
Great little place i'd never been to before.
Thanks
BB
