Playground Shortcut Clare, South Australia, Australia
By Ciril on 27-Dec-09. Waypoint GC22BP7

Can't get up there so archived.

This is surely not here anymore. Brought foxbane with me this time and we scoured the area below and above. Can owner please check, I would love to place another cache in the area.

No luck today. Try again later...

Morrisminor and Chummy climbed down for a closer look while we shouted helpful advice from the top with Spiderfoot. Interesting location. Seems a bit tricky to access the playground from where we were though (much to Charlie's disappointment). Not sure if we weren't looking in the right spot, or if the cache/logbook has now disappeared completely.

Well the Jamestown Table Tennis Comp is done & dusted for another year time to head south & a little closer to home & find somewhere to camp the night & maybe even pick up a cache or two along the way
TFTC

Had a good look but with no luck ! Muggled ?

Needs a container. And probably a new logbook while at it.

Just had lunch at the pub across the road.
This log book is full, full, full.
We just found a corner to sign in.
TFTC

The log book is fuller than full
Needs a new log book

Found it with Cheesy pigs TFTC

Found whilst "mopping up" after the June Long Weekend event. There are so many caches, we didn't have time to do many regular ones during the weekend, so today was another relaxing day and of course we had to find a few.

This was our RunCount0th cache in our caching run today - and we found it at around 13:50.
(So this is our 43500th total find.)

Hmmm, for a short cut we certainly took the long way around to get to one of the start points from the parking spot.

Took: Nothing
Left: Nothing
Thanks Ciril for the hunt today.

Seriously evil full log book. Tftc

After more than one circuit of the area, it finally all started to make sense! We needed a good walk before our long drive home after such a great caching weekend! Log book desperately needs replacing but we did not have one small enough-only about 200mm wide! TFTC Ciril

Found after seeing off Mum Grom on the Riesling Recovery Ride. An interesting, little hidey hole. Managed to find a spot in the middle of the logbook. Cache #1,356.

Found It!
Had a go at this on on Sunday afternoon to no success... But after a few hints that night I went back today and found it!
TFTC

the last of the caches we found in clare over the long weekend.

Very good!!! Log is full

Dropped by with Locus Cache on a short cleanup trip after the CCC2 long weekend event. After a short scramble, and a look around with the torch, I actually spotted the cache, but assumed it was a cigarette butt. Locus cache had to join me before we realised that it was actually the cache. Well, it was a coloured logbook, without any container. Suspect that this one needs a bit of TLC.

Thanks Ciril!

No luck in the dark tonight...

Found with the st clair clan, no room to write name in the log. tftc

found in 60 seconds. tnlnsl

quick find while out for the clare capers event ... sorry for late log =(

As I have done many many times, I took the long way around because I assumed! Made an ass out of me!
Took a bit of time once I got to GZ but finally got it.
Full log.
No container.

found after mdv discarded the object containing the logbook, rook!
tftc

Found with Burt96. Log book full. Surprised it was just sitting there pinned down, but not contained in anything. How does it not get wet? TFTC. Good spot!

Found cache quickly then discarded it only for Col to find 10 mins later....wont live that one down for awhile....thanks Ciril

Out caching in the Clare area while hiding our Clare Caching Capers temporary caches. Great day out with the Honeysucker crew.

Pretending to be a troll with this one. TFTC

19 of 39 finds today

A quick find while out playing the Clare caching capers event TFTC

Found with team Acca Dacca tftf! No room to write in it

Raven refused to get out of the car, not even to the playground, so this was a solo effort by Owl. Clever hide. Have you got the hint that the log is full yet?

Logbook seems a tad fullish. Tftc

Found it No. 5787 ... this one did not take long to find ... LOG BOOK FULL did not have a spare one with us ... TNLN ... TFTC Ciril

Found this one after a lovely weekend at the Clare Food and Wine Festival!

Found a logbook without a container, so signed that, but it was full. Found another container nearby, but weren't sure how to open it safely. We couldn't get it open easily without a tool,& no marks to give us any clue how others opened it (if at all). Decided it was safest if we left it, unsure of whether we should claim a find.

couldnt see eithir end of the walkway from were i parked so i made my own track. got a strange look from a council worker who was looking for graffti, he must have been thinking i did it (wasnt me). logs were tricky to get out of the tin. was interesting listening to everything passing over the bridge

Found while caching around Clare Valley. TFTC Ciril!

Easy find but it takes two to extract the log. Enjoyed the walk on a beautiful morning. TFTC

Cache found on ground, not hidden. Replacement log required,full. TFTC

Cache tin has no lid & it's spider central here but another successful locus cache while on lunch break during a Samrats ride to Burra. SL in middle on someone else's page as it's full. TFTC

Found while visiting Clare for the Tour Down Under. Managed to smash my head on the nearby metal sign so now I have a terrible egg on it! Thanks for the cache.

Last driver change returning from 3 day CFS deployment. Time to squeeze in a cache.

easy find for the day TFTC

Greetings from Wisconsin, USA. Happy New Year and Merry Christmas! #52 on our Australian adventure. Took some time negotiating it away from the spiders.

While on our trip to Australia, we stopped and found this one along the way. It took us a little searching, but we did make the find. TFTC.

Didn't take enough notice of the description so had to walk back around the corner for access. Then after the event we found the shorter shortcut. TFTC.

Left the kids and mum at the playground and went and found a cache,TFTC

Nice hide!
TFTC

Good little hide, found with mrs #Mini Me. TFTC

Found while waiting for our delicious pizza to cook while enjoying a weekend in Clare. I wanted to walk through the whole area, but Boxer was in a hurry and so he jumped a fence while I waited on the bridge.

We had one of Margieh's fat log books with us and so popped that in the cache - so it should be right for quite a while.

Thank you.

found while camping at the Clare caravan park with the family over the weekend! Had a great time !!! TFTC

Tftc, needs new log book

found with Koolunga Primary School
log book was full so wrote under someone elses log
TFTC

Found on an awesome caching trip with pprass. See also his comment below.

Found at 11.00am GAFF1 in the company of GeoSamo. So glad it wasn't in the playground itself as there were a few midget muggles enjoying the equipment.
Thanks Ciril.

Cool hide! Log book is full.

Quick easy find, nearby thought we'd have a quick look . TFTC

Found first look, couldn't find last time here

Found easily after a short stroll. Lots of muggles around, but they were all doing their own thing, and not interested in us.
TFTC

Lovely little playground, but I think the path underneath the bridge would be more fun to young kids, .

Our first cache on our clare weekend with team tarcowie. TFTC

We took a break from winery-ing to give the kids a run on the playground. Oh how convenient - a cache here too. Found pretty quickly, but the log is chokers and needs replacing.

Thanks for the cache

Rated: for Overall Experience

found on a Riesling Trail ride with the Trip-Tze crew.

Thanks for the cache Ciril.

Found as a part of TheKellyGang.

Geocahing with TheKellyGang for the day this took a bit of thinking but eventually found it clever hide...

A nice walk along the creek, great hiding spot. Took a few minutes to find.

Took us some effort.

Good hide spot - almost fool me but found it. Signed the log. Thanks Ciril.

Mr Bushies2 went down and searched a while before found it. Thanks Ciril.

At bloody last this one had me for a while, now onto my next nemesis.tftc

Description a bit too vague. Looked for all the 'pipes' under and around the under pass, but to no avail. 3/3 dnf's today. Bad start to our geocache adventures

Pleased the overpass holds up well! Tftc

We stopped in town for lunch and after getting some grub at the nearby bakery we went to the playground to eat and play. I popped over for the very short walk during lunch and after a short search I came up with the goods. TFTC!

No problem with this one thanks ciril

Found while on a days caching with Earthlight
Geo hubbies sat in the car while us wives went in search of the prize
Found out in the open put up slightly above where was found
tftc

Found whilst caching with The X-Trailers.
An easy find as out in the open.
TFTC

Another find for the day (have lost count on the order!) easy find TFTC:)

Nice easy find great spot

Found after a bit of searching about. Needs a new log. A fun find.

Found by junior Geokid between muggles. TNLN. Thankyou for organising the hunt.

We love this area and definitely a great spot for the kids

cheers and thanks for the cache

a quick grab
found with Datruk and Burtons on our post christmas caching run

Went out today with Honeysucker and The Burtons to do some of the caches out this way.
Only a short search was required.


TFTCSL

We found this as part of a huge day of caching in the mid north with Team Waldron.

We tried for the century but like the Australian Cricket team, that proved elusive and we had to be content with 60 odd caches for the day.

Thanks for the cache, it was fun.

The locusts are bad up this way at the moment.

We cleared a path as we walked to the cache but one ended up down my shirt!

An easy find.

TFTC

Took me far longer than it should have as i didnt read the hint!!... a great spot once i worked out how to get to it!! TFTC

Took a little while to zero in on this one but got there in the end. TFTC

After all the rain this week and the water madly raging through this area we were pleased to find this cache. Thanks. That is the second one in this vicinity I have now found.

A nice little walk and well hidden.
Thanks Ciril

Have been to Clare many times but never knew this existed
TFTC & the lesson Ciril

with Jeremiah Bullfrog

Walked over from the skate park. While I was searching a woman at the hardware gave me a funny look, but I managed to find and replace the cache before she came back. Thanks Ciril.

Found by Mary & David at 0805. The shortcut was unoccupied this morning. Found the cache after a short search. Lovely sunshine already. There's been a lot of water through here recently too. Our thanks to ciril.

A quick stop in Clare on our way back East. Dropped down from the hardware carpark and made a quick find, thanks to the good clue. Thanks Ciril.

3629. [font=Comic Sans Ms][green]Mr Winglen made the find while I was playing with the bigger object nearby. It's all about size.

easy find on our anniversary weekend getaway in Clare. Nice to be following Team Ermalesh on this one.
TFTC

Couldn't work out if this was the multi we were searching for in the same area a year ago, until we realised that cache was offline. Found while Mr Ermalesh was searching higher up for it. TFTC

Found in the company of good friends Pack of Sullies, rain had stopped long enough to make the shortcut between playgrounds. TNLNSL. TFTC.

Great but tricky cache! Homer found this one . First time no go but second time yippy. TFTC.
