As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

replacing container

Found at 9:50.
Quick find, as the camo is coming of and the blue lid stood out
Drained some water out of the cache. The bag is torn but the log book is still ok. I suggest urgent maintenance to save the badges (these containers just aren't water-tight).

Started pouring with rain as i got to the GZ. Took shelter in the trees as i filled out the log.

This one was abit wet inside, so i tried to dry as best as possible.

TNLN, thanks!

The cache was certainly in a scented area.
It was quite well hidden from view but easy enough to find.
No one about on a wet morning.

Thanks foxzami

Water, water, water, water.

Very wet inside cache. Easy find. TNLNSL TFTC

An easy find for a Monday morning, Took Nothing, Left Soldier

Walked straight up to this one. The cache was quite exposed so I don't know how much longer it will be there for. Tried to hide it a bit better but we'll see. Nice park with an interesting structure in the distance. TNLN. Thanks.

Badges!

5th of 18 for the day. I thought I was having a groundhog day when this one came up, I found a cache with a similar name done south a while back. No muggle problems today.

Found by edmil, I was in Adelaide for work, maddie was still in Victoria. Checking tom tom revealed this cache was about 2 kms from where I was staying. I needed the walk so I set off . I came to the location only to find a young muggle with muggle dog in the vicinity, after walking 2k I wasn't going to give up this easy so I waited them out. After about 10 minutes the area was clear. I quickly located the cache, signed the log & replaced cache. Having no swap in line with the theme none was made. Thanks for the cache, I had a great walk ended up doing more than 6ks by foot. (note: cache is a little damp)

Nice and easy find. Lovely park.
Thanks for the cache.

Accompanied with Lava12 for the day. The cache is very wet... Sorry no swap. SL. Thanks Foxzami for organising the cache and hunt.

Easy find.
Sorry no badge left - took lady bird left golf ball

Easy find, even though I forgot the hint. TNLNSL

Found after quick search. It's a little harder to find nice smelling things in the dark, but got there anyway. TNLN. TFTC.

Found it - smells great - TNLN- TFTC- Saucehead and Lulu

Found quickly but a muggle walking dog made it very hard to return the cache.
TNLN, thanks Foxzami
Swampy

Stopped off to find this one on a bit of a drive in the NE area. No badges to swap today.
Thanks Foxzami

Found after a short search, TNLN, thanks for th ecache.

Nice easy find. Out and about with mini maux....had to very hastily return the cache and contents due to nearly getting muggled. What is with the house with the posters out the front just around the corner on Mia Street(??)? You could lmost make this a virtual cache because of it's value as an oddity!!

The source of the olfactory stimulation was looking a little dried and sick! Found with Geo_Stick. TNLNSL Thanks

A quick find with Ds-Fifty. TFTC

Quick drive by TNLNSL TFTC
Hope your seeking is Muggle Free!

Great idea for a cache theme. Couldn't find my old Girl Guide badges before leaving home today so swaped a badge from Switzerland for something different. Cheers.

A quick find by Kettle-Twin 2. Had no badges wuth us to swap - but a good idea.

Good to get another one close to home ctossed off our list.

TFTC

A spot of soccer was happening on the oval - far enough away to pose no problems.

Freddo was passing and saw my car. What the heck, we lined up for a rare pick of the Tojo and Paj side by side.

Clear skies, TeamAstro.

2nd find of 14 today...No swaps but I used to go to Brownies and Girl Guides not far from here SL TFTC

Hadn't planned ahead or else I could have added to the badge collection. As it is, I already own most of the ones in the cache (most are sewn onto my uniform!). Almost got sprung by some walking muggles but all was good.

A quick find by Mr & Mrs Barra.

Cheers

Found by The Noodler. Took badge - Their Service Our Heritage. Left metal 27th Gemboree badge.

Nice quick find - once we let the muggles go past. Go! Go! Go! Onto the next. Cheers Gav [1564]

Finally getting around to logging the record breaker Thanks!

Kiwi Cache Raid: #167 @ 19:33. My son is a Scout who is keen on swapping badges - unfortunately he wasn't with us on this trip. Great idea for a cache! Many thanks Foxzami.,,,,,,,,,

7:33 p.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.

TNLN

A nice quick find - TFTC

Quick easy find.
Took nothing.
Left Carrot Top TB from USA via Qld to continue his Australian journeys.

Was very confused. Where are the wetlands? What cups? Ah, silly me had switched the names and coordinates around for here and 'Sign of the Times'. No cups should be here! TFTC

Looks like we're following Dylanja around today !
A short stroll down a cement path to an easy find .

Left Red Jeep TB & Pathtag from Canberra
Took nothing, SL TFTC
Was a bit of a hunt to keep below the muggle fence line, no one left after the old lady and her even older dog had left.

No one around today. A quick find. Couldn't see any TB.

No badges with us so no swaps. Couldn't believe that there weren't any MFS badges in there. Has Hurtle not found this cache or has Nibs taken it for the quilt?
thanks Foxzami

Cache protected by a small white canine security force so waited until this mini muggle gave up on us and went away. Easy find. Took SA badge (to take to NZ next month) left Tassie hat badge. TFTC.

nice find to finish off a nice afternoon. didnt have any badges to swap even tho im a scout too. past finder justcameron was there for a laugh.

Found the cache easily enough. Back at the car afterwards, we had our first ever approach from the police. Seems a man had been reported exposing himself to children in the area - luckily the description didn't fit David. Once we explained geocaching to them, they were happy and wished us good luck. Our thanks to Foxzami.

The distant council workers caused no problems with the find. Picked a sprig of the smelly stuff to refreshen the geomobile. Thanks for the cache Foxzami.

Good to be able to get out and do some easy caches.
First find with new Magellan explorist 500. Came while I was in Hospital and only just well enough to do a few.
Thanks for an easy one near to home.

easy find, but TFTC.

easy find

Quick find amongst the bees.
Unfortunately no patches, as they're all sewed onto the old Scouting blanket, but it was nice looking through the ones in the container.
Nice views to the hills whilst logging the cache whilst sitting on the oval nearby.
TNLN, TFTC Foxzami

Cheers

Found at 12:30 PM. Nice easy find in a very pleasant location. Hint is more useful than a GPS Well nearly!

Found this one after it was getting dark, but it was a quick find. Took penny travel bug and left a spinning top. Cheers. MODU.

Plenty of light being thrown on the subject area, so no torch required. Had to wait (suspicious looking) while muggles walked pooch past... Decided I needed to find this fast, in case someone rang the fuzz..
Unfortunately left patches home this time so TNLNSL
Thanks

Great collection of badges!
No problems with muggles today thankfully.
- geocoin and a badge
+ spend a penny TB and a 'Good Turn' coin from the 1955/1956 Australian Jamboree
Cheers

Found in the first place I looked, which was also the last. No badges with me today. So I left a bug.

Funny thing happened as I was searching GZ. Was on top of the cache on one side of the bush, when I heard footsteps approaching GZ from the other side of the bush. Thinking to myself it was another Geocacher, I ceased all movement and waited for person to start poking around.
Turned out to be an elderly gentleman picking flowers from said bush not 1 Metre from where I was!!

Talk about stealth mode. I mean, what are the odds of someone arriving at GZ at THAT time of day, THAT particular part of the path, and THAT particular bush? And to make things worse, he had a nosey dog off the lead!!
Anyhoo..... managed to avoid detection and safely log and return cache to it's hidey hole.
TNLSL
TFTH - and for the day's dose of adrenalin !!

I felt like I was standing in someone’s house as I furtively got this one. Lightening log write. No badges – no swaps – gone!!. Cheers

First for the day. Nice quick find even before the GPS had locked on with the hint. TNLNSL, thanks Foxzami.

Find 79 without a GPS at 5.30pm
