Geocacher Height Survey The Levels, South Australia, Australia
By The Calumphing_Four on 16-Dec-08. Waypoint GC1JTN9

Still nowhere to be found.

This is being muggled too frequently, so I'll archive.
I have a solution to the muggling, but it'll change the hide and make it harder, so instead I'll archive and relist; although I'll take the opportunity and move it to the other Height mark in Mawson Lakes, as it may be quieter there.
Thanks for all those that have visited.
Cheers

No cache to be found today but I can relate to the sizing of Mr GrowingUpIsOptional. We know both Mr & Mrs GrowingUpIsOptional; as Mr GrowingUpIsOptional is a pilot like me and he also has some influence in getting me started with geocaching as well. Just a shame they have moved from SA to other state.

Had a good look and feel around. No cache for me today

This cache was no wear to be found, i had found this before as a muggle a few years ago, but nowhere to be found.

Fair_Dinkum

Searched everywhere then, after finally giving up, found the cache (without log or any contents) about 10-15 meters away from CZ in the road's gutter.
I returned the cache to where I thought it should have been.
Going on how often this cache has recently been found muggled, it might be worth moving it?? Will send a message to 'calumphing four'

Found with snooki this afternoon, not where it should be and with no log. We replaced at gz with a scouts fake tattoo, but cache needs new log. Tftc

Mr Fluffy is over 6 foot tall. He looked high while Mrs Fluffy looked low, both finding nothing. We even expanded our search beyond the obvious position with no luck.

We'll be back!

Mr and Mrs Fluffy

Sorry, didn't read the description so didn't get the height recorded. Didn't get to reading it because as I walked up to GZ, I saw the cache sitting on the middle of the path, plain as day for all to see! Picked it up, signed and replaced where I thought I was supposed to be, easy reach!

well that was a fun find an interesting place, all good made a log and placed back to safety TFTC FTF thanks calumphing_four.

sherees first find and she topped in at 183cm.

Interesting - on one side of the road I am 1.65m on the other I am closer to 1.8! From memory I am closer to 1.68 so slightly taller than average couldn't find the cache for a while then spotted it on the ground a few metres away. Cache is back how it should be (I think). Next gcer needs to be quite tall. TFTC

Easy find but a lot of muggles.

out on an arvo of gcing my height 178

tftc

Found this one this afternoon in an interesting condition. The log book was located at least 4m from the cache container sitting on some over grown grass in the creek. After retrieving the log book with go-go gadget arms located the cache container and reunited the two. Signed and replace the pair in the right location.

If I was to hazard a guess as to how the log book and container came to be 4m apart I would say it was the mystical powers of young muggles that may have made an entry on the 6th July.

TFTC

It's back finally.
Even managed to do the replacement as a drive-by
Cheers

Cache is made and sitting on my desk. Just need a muggle free moment to get it into its spot

Looked low and stood on tippy-toes but had no success.
Thanks anyway The Calumphing_Four for getting us away from our familiar territory.
Just realised when logging our DNF that the cache was offline!

I suspect a muggle finally tried the hook that cachers liked to leave expose and removed the cache that came out with it.
Will try and replace this week.

Nope couldnt find this one either. Think it is having a snack at the wet cafe or it now sleeps with the fishies

DNF for me too - sure looks like its been dropped overboard. Time to check it out and disable it if its gone so that cachers without logs available at GZ don't waste their time. Thanks anyway calumphing_four.

Walked up and down the bridge looking high and low but couldn't locate cache.

Maybe it's been dropped!

JAPER didn't find it , will be back though!!!

Great cache, Chugger was up for the challenge, despite his height, he can manage such things much betterthan I - TFTC

Bit of a stretch but e.gregory1 grabbed it for me. TFTC

Not for shorter cachers. Fortunately 186cm male. TFTC

Today it was easy.
Last time school had just got out, and muggles everywhere.
Male, 185cm.

TFTC

Found this cache whilst out taking a short geo-stroll one morning on a recent work trip to Adelaide.  Thanks calumphing four for this cache.

Hmm a littel too damp to get to, it was dark and we didnt have the right footwear with us have to try again when the ground dries a little

Found by Mary & David at 1715. Has the water ever reached the maximum before? For the survey, maccaDavid is 180 and maccaMary is 158. Our thanks again to The Calumphing_Four.

TFTC

found cache, really needs new log, nice hide' TFTC

Found it had troble getting the cache but I got it needs new log book damaged

Found a while ago and forgot to log it.

WOW! AMAZING CACHE!

Found while my daughter was at a nearby party.
Didn't know what to expect until I arrived. Loved the cache.
I wonder if the location came into play with all the recent rains?

Proves I'm still a shortass. Cold and windy day, but still dry

got it

We found this on a wet Sunday Afternoon.
Its been raining enough this week, but we were still safe from being flooded.
It was Tans duty to hop out as Stew did a drive by with the geo kids.
Right on cue it rained. Leaving one wet Tan standing on the side of the road waiting for the return of her driver.

Much to the amusment of the geokids of course.

Signed log
TFTC

Easy find with alashfa. Tftc. Log needs to be replaced due to getting wet. We have placed log in a plastic bag but still needs replacing.

Found with Buttle85 we were both tall enough. TFTC

Out for a day's caching with gaminngoing. With recent rains had to detour to GZ which was quite obvious as we got closer. Not all that high any of us, a combined effort was needed. TFTC

Lucky to be with Josan08 on their 555 cache. GeoDaughter on back of S for the quick retreival of cache, lucky not to fall in the river. We had a laugh TFTC

July School Holiday Fun - Day 1:
We set out on this beautiful, fresh Monday with aims of hitting 300 today. Ah, the best laid plans... Found 10 out of the 18 we visited. Sadly, I have to log this one as a DNF, even though I know EXACTLY where it is, but can't reach it to extract the cache to sign the log.
Not even geo-niece could reach... guess we'll have to wait for her to grow a few more inches
Thanks for the fun of the hunt, The Calumphing_Four

Good Hide

Found on a quick visit to ML - 5ft 6 inches made it easy enough for me - TFTC

Did this at night after studying for hours at the uni - was nice to get some fresh air and listen to the music of what seemed like a million frogs!!! 180cm tall

This cache got me into trouble... I had made my way to GZ, found the cache, signed the log and was waiting for an opportunity to put the container back when a friend pulled up beside me and said "what the hell you doin' down here"... Seems I had not advised everybody of my visit to the City of Churches... Hmm, perhaps because I had planned a truck load of caches and wanted to be selfish this time...

I managed to convince said friend that I would be back next month and we will drop around... All sorted... [^]

Then I managed to tuck the container away and hightail it outa there before anyone else appeared from nowhere...

Cheers Calumphing Four.

F 178cm tall. Tried taking photos as it was a freezing cold muggle free night but the flash wasn't working so we looked like white fuzzy blurs.

Loved this one ... did make me seem small dwarfed by the Cache however :S
T.F.T.C

Wet day searching for this. Was barely able to pull it out. Log is damp so unable to sign. TFTC.

HHHHMMM, not quite what we were thinking about. If ever you are in the Illawarra you need to attempt "FLIP IT" a varied method of this type of cache. It was Sunday afternoon so muggle factor was low and being 175 high the little step to the side came in handy. Mrs KC is 153cm so she had no chance. TFTC

I am 190cm tall can reach it.Nice found.S.L.

T.F.T.C

At 168cm I could only just reach it.
For me growing tall was not optional

Nice and easy find after taking a quick detour home from work.

TFTC

At approx 185cm I had absolutely no problems retrieving. TFTC

Visiting Adelaide for work I had loaded a bunch of caches in case an opportunity came up for a walk at the end of the day. This one was 160m from the apartment, so imagine my disappointment when I could see it but not reach it. Had to recruit my work colleagues to assist. It needs a new logsheet fairly soon, by the way. The current one is getting a bit mangled. TFTC!

it is official... I am to short...
Found it but could not get it out...

Out here at a conference...so finished and now........kids at ohsc....for a while at least.........hmmm ........CACHE!!!!!
Talking of height...some of us are vertically challenged....I could see it, I could touch it, I could lift it, but not enough!!!!
Thank goodness for a nearby plant skeleton, with appropriate appendages! Have left for the next person who finds tippy toes is not quite enough!

Finding was easy despite my tall of 176cm.
However, putting on was more difficult caused by some muggel.
Finally, with patience and steady nerves - all german virtues - the task completed
TFTC

Talking about height, we were amazed at all the development around here. Cache found after a little searching. Thanks The Calumphing_Four

After the American Pi Lunch Event, headed out with Honeysucker to grab some of the Mawsons Lakes caches.

180 cm for the firesafe. TFTC.

Well I cam to town for business and stayed the night at the Mawson Lakes Hotel.

After some beautiful Indian food and a few beers it was time to go for a little walk.

It is pretty cold at 11pm at night, I wish I had brought a jumper.

Thanks Calumphing_Four for a great night time cache.

I had a lot of fun finding it.

For the stats I am 193m and Male.

Cheers for a great cache while on business.

MADSTARS

Nice hide. Log was saturated from recent rainfall.

Thanks for the cache.
Mr...The Mad Mashys is 172cm
Mrs....emily~angel is 169cm
Geokids are all alot smaller than that.

Found it in the company of FPN (Geograndkid). 182cm and 160cm. TFTC.

found it with dennisc52. 160cm here 186cm for dennisc52. TFTC

Found immediately.
Good hide.
No proper use today for the measurer - I measured approx 178cm on it.

178cm

Did with Team scoobster! She drove.. I did the run over the bridge for it!

Forgot to log this one! :O

easy find.. with geo hubby signing up for the height test!

TFTC

Margieh grabbed this one as I did a U turn and picked her up on the way back. TFTC

There was nowhere to park so I jumped out the car got the cache while Dazzatron drove round and came back to pick me up... Just wish I was a little taller but then if I ate my vegies when i was a little kid I might have grown taller...!!! Thanks calumphing four for the cache

Nice hide. Thanks. I'm 174cm, but somehow was over 180 on this gauge.

Needed to start working off some Christmas cheers so decided to go for a walk from the hotel. This was the first for the day and our 99th over all. A pretty easy find for geoD as geoP was too short.

out with Albida33
Found @ 16:48, Almost able to reach down for this one.
TFTC

Well, that doesn't really help with sibling rivalry! Geokids are always fighting over who's taller! Needs more accurate measurents! Oh well, back to Grandma's cupboard door!

Anyway, Dad found the cache easily as he was the tallest! Our thanks to the Calumphing Four for the cache! Number 19 of 20 today!

185cm male and this was a great little cache. Thanks!!

This is a great little area and there was certainly no worry about the place flooding today with a top temperature of 40c.
I am 189cm (male) and my caching partner is 190cm (male) so an easy find.

This was cache # 32 of 77 for the day, in the company of Alansee on our five day long weekend Adelaide caching Bonanza. I had no trouble on this one, I did wonder if Water would ever get into this one. My thanks to The Calumphing_Four for the cache.

Found on a trip to Adelaide with ActsYouthGroup. Almost the ultimate drive by! I was driving so he got the job, thanks The Calumphing Four.

Thank you for the cache

Just a 4 min walk form my flat for the time while I stay here in Adelaide.
Unfortunately no Pen inside so I couldn't write something into the logbook.

Comerzer for TeamOpf

What a great hiding place. Pics will follow a bit later.

Thanks for the cache and the fun of the hunt.

We found this cache as part of the Gangsters Team as we had our Invasion Weekend around Adelaide.
No time to measure ourselves as we had an event to be at.
Thanks for the adventure.

Found on Adelaide Invasion trip with The Rats, Big Matt and Shell and Farmer Frentzen.

Glad we didn't have to measure water on the posts, just us. TFTC!

Found this cache on our Adelaide invasion trip with Steeba, The Rats and FarmerFrentzen.

Thanks The Calumphing_Four for the cache, luckily the markers were not needed today

Found on an Adelaide Invasion in the company of Big Matt and Shell, The Rats and Steeba.

A quick stop to make the find without checking the levels. TFTC.

Easy find for our first cache. Great way to get out and about the area in which we live.
We look forward to getting the others in the Mawson Lakes.

Thanks
cabsauv & son

Easily found while exploring Mawson Lakes. Took GC.

TFTC - Damals schon einzeln gefunden jetzt nur für den neuen Account nachgeloggt

Found thanks. TNLNSL
