After so many months of inaction, there seems to be no plan to fix or replace this cache.

Didnt realize that this was out of action. Obviously didn't find this one just like previous finders. Just found the broken glass hidden in the long grass at the base of a bush.

You may as well put it out of it's misery. Perhaps you could adopt the cache out if you can no longer maintain it?

After having a long search at the site, we beleive cache is MIA. Maybe needs a search and rescue!

We are currently living in Canada, so replacing this possibly MIA cache is a little difficult at present. I will investigate when we return in mid 2011.

Had a quick look before being muggled out by a couple of kids who we heard saying "there's a cach-ay thing over there" as we were leaving! Maybe a few extra people know about this one!!!

No luck here, scratched around lots, delicately avoiding the human "left overs" but to no avail.

Cacheing with wessarah and geogrankids while holidaying nearby at fabulous caravan park –right on the beach. We are all had a good look around and the kids loved playing on the tree – but no luck. Perhaps we should have joined the kids – will try again sometime.

Place was full due to it being Easter Sunday. Found after a short search. TFTC

How conspicuous do you want to feel when everyone else is enjoying a picnic we were lurking behind the tree. Found it thank goodness and were out of there before we were questioned. Thanks for the cache

Nice little spot for a cache. thanks Jenkoz

This was a quick find, out of sight of the cameras. Cool building !
Took marbles. Left strap. SL.
Thanks again Jenkoz.

Found it nice hide.Too many kids playing this area.Quick find it.S.L.

T.F.T.C

I thought the coords were pretty good for this cache - they got us to the obvious spot, then it was just a case of searching all the many hiding places there. No need for saving tonight!

TNLN - Thanks Jenkoz!

10th of 21 finds for my free afternoon in and around Glenelg. Lots of families playing but the cache is far enough away not to be a bother. I found the co-ords spot on.

My second visit here, last time there were over a dozen kids playing near GZ
Winterdrgaon spotted it first
We must have followed Quasar around today
Thanks for the cache

Riding around in the Skippy cache mobile for the evening as he showed me around town and we stopped to grab a few...after dinner. The spot was dark and quiet and Winterdragon made the find. Nice spot...love your big trees here.

Had to wait for muggles to disperse, and found the cache easly, as well as $2 worth of flinders uni water bottles on the ground...

TFTC.

What a very busy place to be. SL TNLN TFTC

Speedmistress Triumphs. Interesting to get this one today as there was a very "interesting" art show on in the grounds of the Lifesaving Club. However with some stealth the cache was found and replaced without too much to do. TNLN SL TFTC.

Found with Ma7:7hew and SA_Parrothead on our Australia day run originally planned to do all the Mitcham Quarry series but injury and exhaustion led us to abandon those plans after #4 and do a bunch of easy ones. We decided to head to the beach on a hot summer's day on Australia day in a park by the beach. It was packed with muggles and somehow, it made it easy to log and leave without suspicion. There were just so many people that nobody seemed to care what we were up to. Perfect day to log this one. TFTC!!!

Found with ParrotHead & someuser on our Australia Day run. With so many muggles around on a sunny holiday, no one cared what we were up to.

15:50
Sometimes there can just be so many people about it is easier to cache than when there are just a few.
This was certainly the case today. Australia day celebrations meant the place was swarming with people and no one took any notice of us.
It was very patriotic in the park and on the beach with lots of flags and people wearing clothes and bathers with an Australia design.

Near a play area by the sea - seemed like a good spot for Hollie's little Aussie Plugger trackable to be left. TFTC

I tried for several other caches further south this morning, but muggles in the respective vicinities prevented any search. I felt like I was drowning for want of an accessable cache, this one was my saviour. All quiet here except for the nearby workers.

Still a fair few muggles around even after dark, but not so many that we couldn't find the cache.

TNLNSL.

BantamCT was the perfect cover. Found the cache, even with a few muggles around. Thanks Jenkoz.

Found with Featherwaite. I climbed up the tree while he found the cache. It was fun. TFTC.

Well, we think so, but the case was empty, and a bit higher than we expected. Relocated as per hint but it will need restocking.

10.30pm 32 Deg
Lots of Muggles, no chance of looking

Found at 19:30.
We came here once before, in the dark. This time it was found quickly in the obvious spot, where Olga and I both swear we looked before.

Went searching with a wandering GZ thanx to my crazy GPS while friends BBQ'd nearby, I started scrounging around my friends came over wondering what I was doing and I therefore recruited a new fellow cacher!!!
His whole family have caught the bug and are keen to participate. They watched me replace the cache while they stood there amazed and enthralled!!
So, They can also claim this as a find and they may well be back to do it all properly under their own steam and a brand new shiney name to suit!

I had no problems with the co-ords for this cache, found easily... Just had to pretend to take lots of photos of the near object to retrieve. Thanks jankoz

We found this one accompanied by 92 year old geo-nan on her first caching venture.
Had to wait until dark to find cache as it was a hot day & the area was crawling with muggles.
Under the cover of darkness we soon had the cache in hand & were on our way.

This was cache # 24 of 45 for the day, in the company of Alansee on our five day long weekend Adelaide caching Bonanza. A liked the tree near GZ on this one. My thanks to Jenkoz for the cache.

Found with Acts2YouthGroup. We pulled up at gz and he started looking at the front of the establishment. I pointed out that my gps still said about 20m, (And so did his - sorry Eric!) The cache was then a quick find.

Quickly found during our Southern suburbs cache run. Lots of muggles in the area. TFTC.

The name of this cache is possibly what the suspicious yummy mummy was thinking as she eyed two middle aged men lurking furtively by the trees of her young one's playground. Must give up playgrounds. Thanks Jenkoz.

2446. If you're a male cacher and have done playground caches you will understand this one. Two adult males behind/leaning on a large tree while a shapely young mother and young child where passing by. She did the mother hen thing and shielded the child from us and didn't take her eyes off us until she was a safe distance away and could mount the bike and ride away. Sorry lady, it was only harmless cachers.

TFTC and the neighbourhood watch.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Last for the day and an easy find with a TB as well. Took the TB "Band Nerds Do It Best" and a cloth sew-on Badge. Left a Die and a bag of marbles we brought from WA on our last trip. TFTC Jenkoz - we found this one!

Thanks for the find. B

Oh, and we left our first bug!

Found on an Adelaide Invasion in the company of Big Matt and Shell, The Rats and Steeba on our 24hr record caching run. TFTC

The Gangsters (The Rats, Big Matt & Shell, Farmer Frentzen and Steeba) found this cache as part of our record breaking run around Adelaide. Took a while to find but got there.

Thanks for being part of the hunt.

Found this cache on our Adelaide invasion trip with Steeba, The Rats and FarmerFrentzen. This is find number 142 on the Australasian record attempt.

Thanks Jenkoz for the cache. Shell came up with the find on this one as we were overcomplicating it...

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

The surf club here is pretty nice and the club is lucky. Even the dunnies play music when you're doing your business.

Cache found after looking in a couple of spots. Thanks!

Spent a few minutes looking but found it fairly easily.

Found on the Keeping Ahead Tour 2009.
A quick find but wonder how much the camera picks up?
Thanks for the cache

The sign on the new building saying about 24 hour surveillance had us going for a few seconds but a quick find in the end.

TFTC

Oops! Forgot to log as had o/seas visitors here.
Found with SeaOpsO visiting from Canada
Good hide. TFTC. TNLN.

Found with M.E. and TEAMSCRUFF. TNLN TFTH:)

Given that it was dark and wettish it meant that the muggles were no where to be seen.
A quick dash from the car across to the cache and it was soon being logged.
It would be nice here in the daylight I'm guessing.

First Cache!!! Easy enough to find. (could be why I chose it)

On a fun morning of caching with Sal!!
My little girl had lots of fun playing on the playground afterwards.

Found my my youngest geokid with a little help from dad! Be careful as it looks like this area is being monitored by the muggles.

An easy find on a quiet afternoon. A few muggles in the playground, however a quick game of hide and seek with hgl-jnr was good cover to lurk around GZ. Easy find. Dropped in the Beach Flip-Flops as this is my favourite beach. I spent 5 years in the nearby building, patrolling Brighton Beach before the sun (and required energy levels) got the better of me!

To make the cache a little bit more special, it is my Birthday. Thanks from hgl.

Took Smiley TB, will have to track it down as it was not logged in.

Found on a cold blustery day, after having fish and chips at the nearby park. Left TB and signed log. TFTC

Found by Mary & David at 1525. Glad it was away from the playground. The palm trees are really dancing in the wind today. A marvellous specimen, but it needs a large drink. Our thanks to Jenkoz.

Off caching to places unseen
Well, places that I haven't been
Muggles wave after wave
But indeed, we did save

Thanks to Jenkoz for the cache.

Yep, coords were good for me to, making for a nice quick find on this bright sunny day [^]
Cheers, TFTH.

Found this cache with assistance from the white dog gang. Had a couple attempts to find it previously. Not that hard in the end. Watch out for muggles especially during
summer .

Happy Winter

A quick drive by today, found with DJAJ.

All quiet at this end of the park today so A quick find was the order of the day. TN left a new pencil. Cheers.

Found after digging around. Nice hide in small park. TNLNSL

Cache needs new pencil or pecil sharpenened.

Glug, glug, glug.

The coords are good. I got 6m at GZ once things settled down. The tall buildings are reflecting some of the sat signals.

The Prado was rocking tonight as Everlasting, Trail06 and me headed out into the dark for a nights caching.

This was first on the list and was quickly found even with the old numbers. Get a Magellan and caching is easy.

Out for a night of caching with Everlasting and Team Waldron.
Lots of muggles out tonight but fortunately it was very dark. We had attempted this previously but the GPS had us 10 metres away. Thanks for another local cache.

A quick find, although the gps wanted me 20m away in the residences!
Left 5 Continents TB TNSL
Thanks

It was pouring with rain so umbrella caching was the go. The coords led me straight to the obvious hiding spot. So obvious I found the cache almost immediately. The back part was flooded which made stepping around the place a little more tricky. It was also dark [:0]. But not to worry, there was no one around. It was 1am and the more sensible souls were all tucked up.

That was my next GZ. I wanted to find that in a hurry.

Clear skies and our thanx to Jenkoz from TeamAstro. [^]

Grabbed quickly as geosons and the bride played in the park after we had brunch.Gps also was about 17 meters out.Tftc cheers .

Found it nice and easy. No muggles to be seen. Phew! Beautiful beach but freezing.
Thanks Jenkoz for the cache.

Found with the iPhone, which is a surprise, had us about 45 meters away. Not so bad considering that all the iPhone could muster was a whopping 250 meter accuracy . Mrs Sullie rocked up looking for a place that the geokids could not knowing that there was a new cache in the near vicinity. Found by Mr E while waiting for Mrs E to finish work. TNLNSL. TFTC.

Well by the time that we got there we were having to settle for bronze. It took about 5 minutes, but we got there in the end.

The Oregon wanted us about 20m away, but there wasn't anything there, so the obvious spot had to prevail.

A bit cold and windy, but thankfully not wet this afternoon.

TNLNSL

Um. Coords had us 20m away. Pretty sure it's not in the old folks home. Found in the much more obvious spot.

FTF for me. Found the cache at 4.50pm. Lovely park. Enjoyed watch the ocean. Took coin and SL. Thanks Jenkoz for organising the cache and hunt.
