Easy find but half cache missing.
Log book full.
managed to write 'wp9'

Thanks Everlasting

Great cam on this one, excellent work. Nice to pick this up after a tasty lunch in Brighton. Log very full just managed to squeeze our name in. Favourite from us. TFTC!

Awesome cammo!! Tftc

Good to turn this previous DNF in to a found. Log book is now completely full. TFTC. 22/07/2016, 11:58 AM Find #2442

Log book is full.

Had a long look, climbed a tree, tried to PAF but they didn't answer, then all of a sudden the cache was found TFTC and the hunt 22/07/2016 11:55 am Find #1407

Had a brief look for this one but gave up after about 5 mins - probably needs more time to search

Nice tricky hide. Found on this beautiful sunny day.
Tftc

Tricky hide. Stopped to grab this one on the way home quite awhile ago and forgot to log.
TFTC

Found a nice hook hanging in the tree, but nothing on it...

me and jacknor used the last 2 places in the log. needs new log sheet. cache otherwise is fine

found it with jacknor on a weekend of caching 85 finds, 2 dnf, 2 game piece tbs, and the bat key. I hate nanos. I get enough of them from someone else.

found on a caching weekend with sir_spectre. a couple of ladder caches Friday night, 25 finds sat, 55 finds sun and 2 dnf for weekend

After a disappointing DNF yesterday, I decided to check previous logs and managed to find some info on what it was I was looking for. The cammo was obvious, but we got a big hint on what to look out for.

We returned today, and Mrs J walked straight up to it! As usual, the most difficult task lay ahead of us with the removal and replacement of the log scroll. The log scroll is nearly full up.

Thanks Everlasting.

Nearly three years after our last DNF here and we are still none the wiser, however....Upon logging this I now have a fair idea of what to look for on our next visit, possibly in another three years time.

Spent too long overthinking this one. Will have to return another day.

Excellent hide. It was 1000 for me after all these years! I wanted my 1000th find to be significant so I found one near what has become my new hobby.

Quick find, luckily have seen this camo before
Log book has about 3 spots left TFTC

Yayyyy nice quick find. Managed to get log book out and sign. Only 4 spaces left on log book
Tftc!

Couldn't get out log so here's me holding it

Nice hide lucky for us it only took us a few minutes to find

Being a nano and amongst the pine trees I was going to give it a miss, but I thought seeing as I like nanos I'm up for the challenge. Quick detour while doing OH trail and had the cache in hand in under 2 mins, now as previous logs stated we found it but couldn't get the log out, out comes the pocket full of tools.retieved the log and signed successfully. Only cpl of spaces left on log sheet.

TFTC

Now thats a great hide. Couldnt sign log due to not being able to get log out. Found with team fletch_4. Sent photo to prove find. TFTC . TNLN.

Fantastic!!!! Can't get log out so we have attached photo to say we were here
Found with Kirs 3

Found it but couldn't sign the log as I couldn't get it out. Will have to add some tweezers to my supplies! Great cache though thanks.

Good camo didn't wanna take it out. Tftc

Out hunting caches with Froghoppin,
these things are good for cats to play with
tftc

Out with Mattycat looked at the obvious, read some clues and then a light bulb moment and a easy discovery by Mattycat TFTC Everlasting

Yea sure is the pine cone tree, oh look there's a pine cone and another and another and another, and all those pine needles on the ground just everywhere, aaah. So so so so many options for a hiding spot.
Stopped on the way home from work on Friday, (always a great start to the weekend), this road is a busy road but we could pull over far enough to be out of the way, got a few beeps from cars so we weren't sure if they were just friendly or were fellow geocachers who knew what we were up to.
Eventually found the cache after not trusting the GPSr, signed the log and all we can say is we are glad Mrs Kooka has good dexterity for returning the log to its cache.
Thanks Everlasting for the cache and a great start to the weekend. Tnlnsl, ( haha),

Super fast find. The longest time I spent on anything was re-rolling the log. Great camouflage though. TFTC.

quick find. TFTC

Sensational cammo. Just thought we would pick up a caches while hanging around in the hallet cove area

I know where I wanted the cache to be so after a quick look I scaled the tree up to about 6m. Not giving anything away if this is where the cache is or not but with much disappointment I returned to earth. Walking away dejected an epiphany descended upon me. Returning to the tree the cache was soon in hand. Very cheeky hide, well done.

Awesome hide! Loved it! TFTC

Nice one! Fav point from me.

Found on out way to Hallet Cove. Nice little hide. It was as I suspected, but still took a while to find! Thanks Everlasting!

24.11.14 tftc beat camo

Loved this cache. Had the right hunch about this one, and after looking in the wrong area first, I soon found it. Love a good camoed cache

TFTC

Just had another revisit of what was my first find. Love this cache

Easy find, but was not able to retrive Log book

Having spent the morning hunting up caches in the 40 series and Cats and Dogs series knew what I was looking for
Quick find for us today
Found with earthlight after doing the OH series close by
Last cache of the day
Took our Tb's along for the fun

I remember vaguely looking for this cache with my late geo hubby when we first started caching.
Found today after doing the trail closeby.
a tricky log to remove so resorted to the tools.
Caching with the x-trailers this was my last cache find of the day.
TFTC

Brilliant, Thanks for Sneaky But Very Cool Cache. I thought I wasn't gonna find it,
So started to collect pine cones 4 my cockatoo when my hair got caught in the branches & I saw the only bit that could give away this Brilliant Camo!! Thanks Again Best Camo I've found

Found it after my third attempt. Excellent cache!

Found it with kyles68 jaimeegwen and justynbeck and two geokids!

Found with trickytracy justbeck and jaimeegwen

Second attempt and still didn't find it

GPS consistently wanted to take me to the edge if the road which made no sense. Searched up, down, around the tree without success

Bloody brilliant! Loved it! TFTC!

Bloody brilliant! Loved it. TFTC!

Out for a stroll today near and around O’Halloran Hill, second of my finds today. Nice to see some natural recycling. A fav point.

Our first find of this size, was unable to to remove the log (& if I'm honest a bit scared that I would be unable to replace it).

One of the best. Take one x favourite accreditation for such a fine cache . Tftc.

Nice cammo and didn't take too long to detect as I like this idea myself so knew what to look for. Worth a favourite TFTC

Had just finished the OH series so thought I would stop by this one on my way home. I drive past here every day on my way to work and had often thought of stopping off but never got around to it. Had read previous logs and knew what to expect, so when I got to GZ I just stood and looked. Moved around a bit, then all of a sudden the cache was found. What great camo and well deserving of a favourite point from me.
It took me longer to extract the new log from the container than it did to find the cache. I had to take it back to the car and use every geotool in my arsenal to get the log out. Finally it was done and signed, then returned its nice little home.
Thanks for a great cache Everlasting.

Having to be at Netley for training for work for 2 days was a bonus for me as it meant I could stay in an area where I had lots of unfound caches and just cache, cache and cache!
Tonight I left Netley and headed to meet Laighside Legends at Glenelg and we were later joined by RideTheGeoWalrus.
We finally went our seperate ways about 2am and then I eventually arrived home about 5.30am, after 'just one more cache' turned into locus caching 36 smileys including a FTF at 3.46am

This was quicker and easier than we expected!
It was also more obvious than several other pine cone tree caches that I have done
We replaced the log, as it was full.
I have the log with me, so if CO wants it returned, please email me your postal address and I will send it to you.

TNLN. SL. TFTC Everlasting

After a few quiet drinks at the mess, I found myself driving south to join locus and laighside for a Friday night caching run that spilled well over into Saturday. A total of 26 caches for me before I packed it in for the night.

This was the first one after the midnight hour ticked over, and what an awesome cache this was. Simple in its design and camoflage, I can see why it has so many favourites... and here's another. TFTC Everlasting!

Found It!
Neat little hide that took me a bit longer to spot than it should have!
TFTC

Attempted this while finding the nearby OH series, and nearly gave up before Roffer made the discovery. Nice hide! The logbook is full - photo of our initials crammed in. TFTC.

Almost gave up but found. Well hidden! TFTC!

Amazing hide, absolutely love it. Keep up the good work!

Tftc! This was an amazing hide! Good time for some night caches! ^^

What a great way to begin my experience of the geocaching. I love the effort put in for this one.

Took me a while to find this one with my friend (who had already found it) breathing down my neck!
Finally found out though and thought it was an incredibly clever hide and don't know why I didn't notice it sooner!

Needs new log paper it is full thanks for a good hiding spot tftc

Needs new log book! Epic cache! Drive past it every day brilliant!

Nice find while on a holiday around the area.

Thanks for helping make my visit fun!
SL (LOG FULL) TFTC

clever cache, needs new log, old one all filled

Too clever for my eyes.

Last time I came looking I was on the wrong side of the road and decided it was far too busy to cross. So glad I came back for another look. Great cache. Thanks for putting the effort in to make it so good, really adds to the fun.

Been meaning to find this for a long time...today was the day...TFTC

Log is very very full... Thanks..

Great hide. Good spot for a clever hide. TFTC and yes the log is full.

On our way back up the hill and thought we might pull over and try our luck with this one again... Looking, searching.. mmm don't tell me this is a no go... then geodaughter finds a rabbit foot lying on the ground and wondered what it was so over I went to investigate to tell her what it was and for some strange reason I happened to look in a different direction ... Bingo... Got it... Great hide and cammo.... Very clever... Must have been the luck of the rabbits foot... Perhaps I should have kept it!!! TFTC..

Wow, a really good hide. Spent a while looking in the wrong places. Check some logs and got a better idea of where to look, and found it quite quickly.

Well done - a great hide.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Everlasting.

Spent a while looking around but came up empty handed I'm afraid.

Had a quick look while finding OH series.. gps had us on the road... then it started to rain and geokids wanted to go back to car... will come back soon... now that I had a good look at the logs, etc I should have more luck next time...

Great hide......TFTC.....needs new log.

A very good cache found with aussie fun seakers. Muggled by another geocachers
Good to meet them TFTC.

Easy find signed and replaced. Loved the cache Got muggled by some geocachers. good to meet them

Greetings from Tasmania

Found this cache while on a caching trip to Adelaide. Found some great caches while there including a 5 difficulty traditional (I'm a Bastard 2), a 4 terrain traditional (Tapleys Bird) and many great hides in great locations through out Adelaide. Thank you Adelaide cachers for planting so many good caches. My wife did ask me to pick a favourite, and I think Besser Block Mail Box would have to be it, by Tamam Shud, Zen and the Art of Geocache Maintenance and the two above would be up there as well.

I did manage to find 250+ caches in the 5 days I had caching in Adelaide, and would like to thank Astro and Freddo for taking me on a night cache on the first day and Astro for giving me a couple of hints on some that I was stuck with.

Let me apologies for the generic log, especially if I have found more than one of your caches.

Gave up after a lil while, will come back with my gpsr

Found It!
This is a great hide,
TFTC and the hunt

Quick find today on a driveby with hethdil, spotted while we were getting coords out, excellent cammo TFTC

At last! We found it! Yay!

Pleased that it was still daylight when we found this one, I feel that it would have been a lot harder at night. SL TFTC

Oh, wow. Awesome hide, I love it!

Sweet hide! TFTC

Nice hiding spot!!

Thought we'd try a harder one but no luck!

A clever wee hide - took a while to spot.

Took a minute, knew what it would be but still right in front and missed it a few times
Tftc

Hmmm A bit of a look around, Hmmmm
Nice hide Everlasting, like it
