Logs
This one has not been found since November last year with quite a few DNF's definitely needs a checkup, will see if the Mtce request is fulfilled before asking for a archive request, searched with Mattycat with no luck today
A few quick riverland caches with Purrfect Di and Mr and Mrs Froghoppin.
No sign of this one despite the good hints. Looks like may be gone.

Spent a lot of time trying to find this one but was unsuccessful. It was not where the clues told me it was
Arrived here did a search then read the recent logs should've read the logs first. Found where it should've been but unfortunately it's not where to be found
On a bit of a geotour during what remains of my holidays, MuggleWife is back at work so I'm off to Mildura and Renmark via Bendigo and Swan Hill then back to Melbourne through Pinnaroo, Bordertown and Horsham.
Day 2 of my journey of my journey was almost a false start. I camped overnight in Kings Billabong Wildlive Reserve just out of Mildura and was up bright and early, feed, cleaned and packed up by 7:30 am to hit the road and the ignition went click, click, click. Having walked 2 km to meet the RACV and then into town for a new battery, I'm finally on the road at 10 am.
The clue was reasonably obvious but I could not see the prize.
Thanks for placing this cache Jardry

Funny name for an intenment camp, but here I was
Seeking to be released from some caching torment
A quick find, and a 10 minute battle with the logbook to get the damn thing out of the box
Oh I hope the previous finder has a dozen DNF's for that re-hide
TFTC !!
Please put the logbook back into the container the correct, polite, easy to retrieve way around
Plea falls on deaf ears !!

This time the mums went... a bit prickly but we were pleased to find it.
Such a glorious day for geocaching... TFTC !

Such nice weather this morning, so decided to extend my stay at Cobdogla an extra day.
Perfect day to grab some caches and shoot for my 500th find.
Third stop for the day, a quick find after reading the hint.
Thanks for the great cache!!

Still leisurely touring South Australia after the Mega
Now camped up at Plush's Bend for a few days it was time to head back towards Barmera to find some caches and explore the area.
Some very interesting history here, have seen a few in WA but obviously far more here. Some awesome scenic spots that Geocaching took us to today. [^]
Thanks for the cache and for helping us explore this area

The history provided on the cache page is great, thanks for all the effort SL TFTC
Part of us would like to see this history preserved but then the other part of us is not sure about here .......

What an interesting remnant of an unsual part of our nation's history. Thanks for bringing me here.
Found it. Tftc. Some difficulty extracting the logbook from the container. Thank goodness for a goekid's little fingers! CrossCobby November 23, 2013 1:35PM
Quick find which was lucky coz it was raining again! I am accused of making it rain in thee overland by friends here coz it rains every time I come, and I come about 6 times a year! I figure it is always raining here, despite being in the desert. Tftc
Had a silly moment and Took the long way around when finding the cache the moments kept going and took a while to get the notepad out the container
By the time this one came around probably should have realised caching logic was tired. TFTC.

Found it easily although in a slightly different position from that found by others on a previous visit
A few hours of caching with Gemini7 & JustMeNow.
I did this one several years ago, so surprised when it came back onto my list, anyway, found & logged again.

1 / 5 caches found today.

GeoTM had this one in hand before GeoAJ even had time to get out of the car and around to the other side of it. A nice quick and easy find. Thanks for the history, too.
A quick find by geomum who had it in hand before the kids could even get out of the car. Cache was slightly exposed. Placed back and hidden best we could. TNLNSL. TFTC.
Cache container has been replaced with a new log book.
Minor change to description and new hint provided.

No luck for us today on this one, to be honest it was warm and I was more worried about snakes when poking my arms under the building. Sorry!
DNF for me too. It's a bit like snake country here at the moment. And all those bleeding caltrops - they're the things most people call 3 Corner Jacks!
Good to visit though. I wasn't aware of the history in this area before. Ingy knew and wanted to take photos.
We came back to Loveday on Tuesday on our way home and found a few more structures from the era for her to photograph.
Thanks for bringing us here, Jardry. )

Visited at night and had a very thorough search.
There's only one part of basement that you can get under without reaching into the building.
I lifted it up completely. No cache.
Suggest that the owner confirms that the cache is still in place.

No luck after 35mins, has the CO confirmed that it is still there.
The hints did not make it any easier.

iPhone gps off today, just kept pointing to within building no matter how many times I walked around it
Out with TheSA Cousins and crossie 1. Coords seemed to be quite a long way out, searched where we thought it should be, but a brown snake had been seen not far from here, and we were a bit spooked, so left it for another day.
Had to wait out a muggle working just across the road in the vineyard before making our search [B)].
We weren't sure if this was private property or not [?]. Fortunately, it didn't take to long to find .
TNLNSL.
Thanks again Jardry.

#2332 Our last day in the area after spending a few days in Barmera for a good friends 40th birthday. Everyone else were transiting home so we decided to fill in the day with some local caches. Once again, interesting to read the cache page. Finding the cache took a little longer than expected and natural camo made retrieval more difficult (& a little painful). Thanks for the cache Jardry
Thanks for the History Lesson, we also found the Co-ords a little off but found the cache, TFTHL.
nice and quick find to grab my one for the day. co-ords where a bit off but all good. tftc.
Enjoy.....

Lovely and sunny day to do caching around Barmera whilst we stay at a caravan park in that town...Ms Bushies2 found it...our GPSr played up and it was 8m away from the GZ. Thanks Jardry.
nearly missed these caches as when we went past here this morning we were on the hunt for lunch
Sad place... Junior Cooper couldn't quite get his head around the concept!

Found this one after several circuits of the building, with GZ indicated as being inside. Read the logs over the last 9 months since it was last found and many have come to the same conclusion. Decided it had to be outside and eventually found it.
Like others, found coords 9m inside the building. Had a quick look around, checked the logs for clues and found a bunch of DNF's so moved on to the next one.
We stopped for a quick look after a camping weekend at Loveday 4x4. Didn't have much hope of finding after looking at recent logs and this proved correct. As with others GPS showed GZ to be inside building. Extremely windy day & didn't spend too long searching - oh well maybe next time!
As with previous logs GPS shows in building. was visited by a young fellow in a wheelchair very sad case, he was no help in finding the cache
