Thanks mcsspeedy135 for alerting me for need.
The new development has also obliterated the final location.
Have decided to relinquish location because at approaching 3 score plus 30 years of age and with eyesight no longer up to scratch, I have relinquished my premium membership.
I do not feel I can adequately continue to maintain caches.
The new developments look great, and am looking forward to the opening of the wetlands next year.
Hopefully some cachers will put a innovative cache or two in the new area.

Bridge has been replaced and number of posts is different, therefore can't find cache Sad

Cache 1771.

I have been waiting for this opportunity for several years. To win "The Diverse Cacher" Diamond Badge, I need to find 10 different types of cache in one day. Rule out Mega and Giga event, I'm waiting for an opportunity to attend CITO event and normal event in one day. It is today.

Found this as it's a Multi cache. 8th of 12 caches found today.

After an Earth cache, I'm heading east for a Letterbox cache. This Multi cache is just on the way, so I had a go.

Actually, I've done the first step of the multi cache a few days ago. Noted some key information as required. By the way, the footpath is closed. Photo attached.

Today I came back for the final step. After calculation, I walked to GZ, where is not far away. Cache has been found easily.

Took nothing, left nothing. Signed the log book, and hid it back. Covered it well.

Thanks for the Multi cache, ducat.

Quick and easy find while travelling along the park. Easy puzzle - good clues and enjoyable to solve. TN, LN, TFTC.
 
02-Apr-18
Good multi. When we got the final answer, the GPSs played a little game with us, one showing the GZ on one side of the creek and the other one over the water. Both sides had likely locations. We went for the easy option first, it was right. TN, left a badge, SL. Thanks! 3 TBs visited.
 
06-Feb-18
Time for another Reel cache finding day with SA Sewer Rats. Another new one published since our last day means we needed to get her back to reel Nirvana for the second time this year and me a little closer. Cool As usual there would be a few other caches to find along the way. [:o)]
It appears all the restrictions in this reserve are finally coming to an end. Didn't stop us from going and getting this cache today though. Razz Just had to get to the way point from a different direction. Then it was a quick find at GZ. Smile

**Thanks ducat for this cache. ** Big Grin
 
28-Oct-17
**# 19570** Found on the SA leg of our 2017 escape trip. Wink
A warm Spring day for a drive around in north east Adelaide again.
A lot more muggles around today, and mostly good quick finds.
Thanks for the cache ducat,

3rd attempt but this time we got the math correct. No where near where we looked previously. Aha at last a cache. Thznks for the brain strain, we are but only snakes and thanks for the cache and another smiley.
 
08-Oct-17
Finally getting our counting right.
And the Snake relearning how to count.
We managed to find the cache. TFTC
 
17-Aug-17
A neat little multi TFTC
 
17-Aug-17
Having tried this one before we looked on the old spot again before we noticed the puzzle had changed.

A quick recalc and we were off in another direction.

I looked in the spot first but didn’t see it, but licking Moneydork rechecked and did find it for us.

Thanks for the cache ducat. Found on 17 Aug 2017 at 9:09 pm. Find #5021.
 
26-Feb-17
On a big caching day out I made a re-visit to this, 'now back on deck', Multi [^] Gathered the required info and went off to GZ to make a speedy find on Sun 26 Feb. 2017 at 10:44 Smile The new container and log book with are perfect [^] TFTC ducat Smile
 
20-Jan-17
Modified to simple puzzle after floods changed landscape.
 
06-Nov-16
Guess flood victim will check out probably not till I get back from Tassie.
 
04-Nov-16
Had a go at this one but i couldnt find the small cont under the bridge as mentioned. Big flood recently may have swept it away
 
08-Dec-15
After previously getting the maths wrong I fear, a recheck of everything today came up with a cache nicely hidden away in the logical spot. One tree back some bees were swarming.
All in all a happy find and thanks for the local history too.
TNLN TFTC ducat Cool
 
26-Oct-15
Took us 2 days to find this one. I think our coord locals were a bit off so ending up walking around and found it about 10 meters away from where we pinned it on google maps.
 
18-Sep-15
Day 2 in Adelaide and I thought that I would go for a ride along the Linear Trail and also complete a few caches, this was number ten for the day. I must have found the old cache container as the one I found had no lid as previously logged. TFTC.
 
10-Sep-15
Better luck this time. Thanks ducat.
 
29-Aug-15
Placed new Sistema container with new logbook and pencil at final location.
Should be a fairly easy find.
Have to admit could not find any sign of old cache. Have only mono vision these days so not easy.
If old cache is found during search please remove.
 
21-Aug-15
Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi. Been working on a few multis lately and this was next on the list. Called in on the way home the other night and gathered the info. Did the calcs and plotted the WP. On the way home tonight went to the plotted point and nothing so back to the start to recheck. Oops. Rookie mistake. Recalculated and the WP found with the final location. Wandered over to GZ and searched and the cache was soon in hand. Lid missing on the container. Logs extremely wet as the plastic bag in which it is located is full of holes. Tried to sign log but too wet. Put in my own log sheet and dried out everything but it won't last long. Looking at previous logs there may be 2 caches at this location for this one. Needs definite TLC. Anyway. Loved the multi. Gratias pro cache
 
21-Aug-15
See my log. Requires TLC. Lid missing on container.
 
15-Jul-15
Had another look in the fast failing light today, with geoson helping.
No luck, will have to return yet again. Sad
 
11-Jul-15
Re maintenance report a kind cacher has fixed it. Thanks.
 
07-May-15
Out and about with AC and decided to do this multi. Was glad to help Andy learn about trees. Thanks for the cache.
 
07-May-15
We really enjoyed the walk, and I have a lesson abiut trees ^^ with the company of Aussie M&M Ms M we found the sneaky cache... we didn't read the previous logs so we didn't bring a new container Sad but the log book is oki ! TFTFun
 
23-Apr-15
Best one that we have done
 
18-Apr-15
Found It!
At long last I have finally finished this multi! I found wp1 two years ago but wp2 was missing at the time. A few months back I got around to finding wp2 but then the tree near GZ had some fairly aggressive bees in it. So today when it was raining I came back and while the bees were still flying around there wasn't anywhere near as many. After a quick search I found the cache although it was missing it's lid. The log book was fine although I'm not sure it will stay that way now its started to rain...

Well it seems some Good Samaritan Cacher has refurbished my cache before I could get to it.
Thank you very much. Much appreciated. Big Grin
 
28-Feb-15
Will replace ASAP.
 
27-Feb-15
Found a lovely new cache and log book while out on our bikes enjoying a cool change. I went to log and note it is still temporarily unavailable. TFTC and the new log Ducat.
 
27-Feb-15
Found with past1950. TFTC
 
24-Feb-15
Had a good look around all the left over dead trees and under and over and no luck.
Have to come back one day.
Used to work in "James Place" in town. . .
 
Found by The Boofs TFTC ☺. Oh no the final cache has been muggled
 
As per my found log, final cache has been muggled and needs replacing. I would also suggest moving the final cache spot to another "less used" group of trees.

Storm damage, will have to relocate.
 
25-Apr-14
Not yet recovered from the arduous but rewarding Oz Mega Murray Bridge I spent the day caching with my Austin, Texas pal, Backwards Charlie. When I learned he was coming to the Mega I promised him lodging and good company to go caching. We got Locus Cache to come along just to make sure I fulfilled that promise! We had a grand time caching in the area and thanks to Locus' good memory we were able to undo a DNF from earlier in the day. Thanks ducat
 
Out caching with SEMIK on my last day in Adelaide, Australia. I have had a great two weeks in Australia attending Oz Mega 2014 and visiting SEMIK and Skippy.

This is my find number twenty thousand sixty seven (20067).
 
03-Apr-14
Worked out the calculations, found WP2 but had no luck with GZ, even with the clue. Always enjoy promenading in the Torrens River Valley. Thanks ducat.
 
05-Feb-14
OMGosh. 2nd attempt at this one after the whole family including grandma turned gz upside down last year. Yuk. Went back to waypoint 2 to confirm co ords and had to remove a strange camo. Re covered with more natural cover and then returned to that same spot that did our head in.... Yep right spot. Now to pull out the big guns. Our special geo tool It worked! But to replace took a bit of effort Took pathtag and left one if ours. Thanks for quite an adventure ducat. Home to shower off....

Mrs Travellinbees had asked me to chauffeur her to the Puzzles for Beginners: 1 event and so on our way, we found some caches.
Attended the event and then I swapped caching partners and headed out with RideTheGeoWalrus, accompanied by 3LG in their car for a while too.
Finally, RideTheGeoWalrus and I met up with bek-theraccoon and Alex-thesquirrel (well, actually we LOL as we muggled them looking in the wrong spotBig Grin ) so we then all put our info together and went to locus cache some harder to solve caches! Cool
I ended the day with one FTF, 1 event attended and 11 smileys obtained Smile

Having had a DNF here a few nights ago, we came back in daylight and made the find! Smile
Yep, that's a devious hide, allright! Twisted
No wonder we didn't find it in the dark!

TNLN. SL. TFTC ducat Smile






 
18-Jan-14
Locus asked for a hand to help locate this one, we were happy to help, after checking all the most likely spots we eventually find the treasure, Locus can now sleep at night with this one crossed off her to do list : ) TFTC
 
18-Jan-14
Out with locus and 3LG and this one was on the locus nemesis list. Four pairs of eyes meant a find within 10 mins, with M of 3LG calling found! TFTC ducat!
 
17-Jan-14
I attended a GCA flashmob for Skippy then got cachernapped by Mogni and Brisal5 for a scenic drive of Adelaide Cool
Managed to locus cache 2 caches before they got me back to my car, one today Smile and one tomorrow Smile and sadly one DNF too betwen them both Sad

We came, we had the wrong coords. we did the multi, we arrived at a spot, we looked and looked and looked but still DNF'd Sad
Almsot gave up on getting WP2 but then found a way through from where we were which had one of us who was still caching in sandals treading very carefully!
I will be back!

TFTC ducat Smile
 
17-Jan-14
Mogni was coming to town and that only means one thing...caching. For her it actually means work. But to me it means caching. Cool.
I was so hot we decided to head home to an airconditioner. Cooled off and then off to a flash mob with Skippy. Time for more caching with Locus joining us.

Doing this by torchlight with help from lightning during a dry thunder storm. Got WP1 and negotiated our way to WP2 with a few detours. Got the final coords but had heaps of trouble here. Eventually had to give up as Mogni was turning into a pumpkin and had to work in the morning. Will return in daylight! Sad
 
01-Dec-13
Re last log, debris found were probably from previous incarnation.
Cache is OK.
 
01-Jun-13
We went for a walk from home to see how the river was doing after the rain, and in amongst the debris at the bridge about 500m downstream from the cache we spotted a log book... it's the one for this cache! The most recent log is M-SEZ's from May last year, so not sure if this is the current log book or not... but might need checking to see if the final container has gone walkabout.
The log book is in surprisingly good nick! (see photo).
 
17-Apr-13
Thinking we had done well to find waypoint 2 but disappointed we couldn't find the cache. (Mind you we were happy finding the coordinates). A beautiful spot where a few years back we celebrated the life of grandma. Thanks for the adventure. We'll return!!
 
08-Feb-13
The dreaded Ducat multi curse struck again! First attempt failed because of a mathematical error. (Hard to believe Owl got straight As at school for maths!) Second attempt had her searching the wrong site because she was confused by the clue and then put off by a bee hive. Today she went back determined to search every tree near GZ. About to give up again she thought, ‘It couldn’t be there, could it?’ (Yep, it was!) Very sneaky hide.
 
30-Dec-12
Second visit here, but this time we came where there was light. Again we searched at searched... Was time to have a sit down and read the logs and hint again.

Looked back at where I placed my GPS 0m 2m accuracy... hummm why not just here lol!!

There it is..!! Very Happy:D:D hahaha thanks for the cache ducat and the fast checkup... Must say I do not know how I missed this, as we pulled about the area .

Very Happy:D:D:D:D
 
30-Dec-12
Second visit for Darknstormy and i tonight Smile and we were so happy to walk away with a find today Smile
Thanks Ducat for a great multi Very Happy and a sneaky final hide hehe i loved it
 
30-Dec-12
Checked out all OK.
Sat lock at final bit dodgy at times.
 
29-Dec-12
Found wp2 with no drama. But searched for 15 mins at final with no success.. think all possible places were searched.. are we still looking for same container and hint?
 
16-Dec-12
Cache at final location had gone missing as well so have taken the opportunity to relocate to a better hide.
Intermediate location restored.
 
11-Oct-12
Second waypoint sure has gone. Will fix ASAP.
 
09-Oct-12
Lovely spot, like the previous log we could not find anything at waypoint 2. We think we know roughly where it may/could have been hidden. Muggled?
 
08-Sep-12
Didn't find anything at wp2. I may have been on the wrong side of the river though.
 
17-Jul-12
Over from Uk with Family from Oz
 
05-May-12
Found toady on our family geo bike-ride. Great multi for the kids too. TFTC
 
09-Jan-12
Hard to be stealthy with the tv cameras and police cyclists floating around the bridge, but we managed it. 66% of the party decided to look at the ducks instead of finding the cache. Their loss.

Thanks for the cache, ducat.
 
19-Nov-11
A pleasant walk for us to the GZ. Hope this one is ok as there is extensive tree lopping going on near the GZ. Thanks for the great hide!
 
06-Nov-11
Second location needs attention, very wet but could still read coords for third site no worries.
 
06-Nov-11
Yay, first multi and using new Garmin GPS60 hand held we havent gone wrong yet( bought from cash converters)geo kids loved doing this one, counting bridge posts and doing the sums etc, we soon had the second hide which was really wet! NEEDS ATTENTION!! loaded next coords in and off we went geo son went straight to it! The clue for #3 location was a bit off, couldnt see how it related to a willow either but used caching instinct and good coords and TAA DAA!! TFTC!!
 
26-Oct-11
I couldn't find any cricket bats or willows at GZ, but I found the cache after giving up searching for a willow in the general vacinity. Thanks for the cache
 
26-Jun-11
after living the caravan park of and on i thought we should clean this one up so as it was a fine morning we went for a walk and found everthing good and easy
 
02-Apr-11
This was a really pleasant way to finish our caching day this afternoon [^].
Worked out WP2 and enjoyed our stroll, but looked in the wrong spot for 5 minutes before searching further afield (our GPS had us 17m out, so maybe we calculated wrong) [B)].
Took a stroll on to GZ and sat on the natural feature to sign the log.
Took compass. Left hi-lighter. SL.
Thanks Ducat for showing us this pleasant little park area [^]Cool.
 
14-Mar-11
Nice day to cache. TFTC

Was in the area today doing some nearby caches, so took the opportunity to get this one. Always nice to walk along the Torrens. SL. TFTC.

Day 223 of non-stop caching.

What a lovely area.. really enjoyed the walk.

A warm day for a walk but a cache find makes the heat worthwhile.
Walked wrong side of the river to start and had to go approx 200mtr further than needed to cross over.
History is always interesting and you find info in some unusual spots.

Thanks for the multi. Not the ideal day to be standing under these gum trees. What with the wind and all the creaking going on. TFTC
 
26-Jan-10
Thanks to geocaching, we learnt some interesting history at this lovely out-of-the way park. Gathered info and calculated co-ords for 2nd location while enjoying a picnic lunch on the park bench. Short walk soon had the final co-ords then on to GZ. Left geocoin. Took Swiss bell
 
22-Jan-10
Was out yesterday visiting some new babies at a nearby hosptial, so I decided to drop in and grab this cache. Nice park I've ridden through many times beofre. Took the GC to move it onto another location....
 
13-Jan-10
A quick stop by whilst on the bikes with Mr and Mstr O'Cholio. Dropped GC. TFTC.
 
05-Jan-10
Plenty of passing muggles around whileI was at WP1, but WP2 and GZ were all clear. The end wasn't what I thought it would be though.
 
22-Nov-09
Took a little while to collect all the clues and do the math. Thankfully the maths were accurate and it was off to find WP2 on the return leg of today's bike ride. Surprisingly no rivers had to be crossed, so a little extra riding was done before the final was found. Last one for the day (so far). TFTC.
 
04-Oct-09
A nice walk around the park. TFTC
 
12-Jul-09
Don't know how I missed the final last time I checked. Found today in the middle of a Cluedo maintenance check/run.

With PG for the day. Lovely garden. SL. Thanks for organising the cache and hunt.
 
12-May-09
Nice easy lunchtime multi.
I had finished working nearby and decided that this cache was certainly much easier than the other nearby Z cache to take a bit of time on before heading off to my next carpentry job.
Noted that Uni had found this cache on the 10th and that it was exposed and open when he found it, all tucked away and well hidden today.

TFTC
 
10-May-09
Found at 16:00
I was held up at waypoint 2 for ages because a muggle mum and child were playing soccer. I eventually got it. Found the cache exposed, open, log book out, but all seemed ok. Put it all back where I thought it should be.
 
02-May-09
Found at our second attempt. This was one of the first caches we tried about 3 months ago. Returned found the WP in the same place I had searched in before [:o)], but had to head home to get GPS Sad. Returned and after a search that was longer than it needed to be (i.e. searched one place moved on and then came back searched probably and foundSmile

Great weather for a walk in the park, and plenty of other people seemd to be of the same opinion. Collected the clues at the listed coordinates okay, but then took a while to find the right approach to the next waypoint. GZ had me stumped for a couple of minutes, but then spotted a welcome hint of red plastic Smile.

TNLN - Thanks ducat!

First for the night out on a run with Skippy of Skippyandlambchops fame, to help us get our numbers up. He took pity on us after our woeful day in the city today.
