Definitely think this one has been moved around a lot, may need some maintenance to confirm
We can't find this....can the owner please locate and replace in right location for the GPS tracking? Thanks!
I have found it before with my friend on his acc and now I can’t find it?? Is it gone or has it been moved
7 dogs in attendance at 10:30 on a Friday - all handsome brutes. Cache found in a very exposed position. Returned to where I think it should be, and CO messaged. TFTC.
I rocked up and wasn’t having much luck in finding this one, then I saw Otter61, well he wanted to move the cache and I wasn’t such f he should but he did anyway, it may take some searching for as the hint is no longer
Today I decided to do a little bit of caching around Brighton way after an event this morning. A great day out with 35finds in total.

Found! Georgia and Chelsea Don't think it is where it is meant to be as had a magnet on it..got clues from other finders
Found with Normanville. Not sure if it should be where we found it as the container was white and had a magnet inside - could be found by muggles quite easily. TFTC
Fond it after looking first on the wrong side of the road. It is perhaps better to call it reaching out for it
Found on a joint night with the Somerton Park Sea Scouts and 1st Flinders Park Scouts
Cache #53
Traditional Cache #44
Spent some of my younger life here playing for the Brighton Bombers. A lot of good times had here, couple of premierships, lots of beers and plenty of fun. Good to find a cache here. Getting a big upgrade too (the site not the cache)!! TFTC

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.
Based at Willunga house-sitting for a few weeks, our newest best friends SnappyTomCats came down to see us for the long weekend. How do we entertain them? Go find some caches?
Hi Billy, we spotted you from across the road. Thanks Trail06

We are down this way for the long weekend to to catch up with and spend some time with our great friends, Dunmowin. A quick find .TFTC
Found while caching SW of the city on a lovely cool spring day.
Thanks Trail06 for the cache

Our second try at grabbing this one, can't understand why we missed it the first time... Log now signed, TFTC.
Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Had tried this one previously, but dismal failures each time.
Was passing again today, and reading logs, I must have been missing something. So stopped by once again, and the experience was the same. GPS wandered all over the place. Then I had a light bulb moment and as I wandered around, spotted the cache in a place that was the most logical, but nowhere near where the GPS wanted me.
Finally glad to sign the log on this one and kiss Billy goodbye.

Cache #2266. Fourth find today.
Today I tried 9 caches, and found 8. This cache has been found on my way to Park Holme.
Actually I tried this cache several years ago, but unsuccessful. Today I tried again, and this time I was lucky.
Signed the log sheet, and put it back.
Thanks for the cache, Trail06.

Found after looking through previous logs for clues. As everyone else says. Log needs replacing
Our focus today was to visit eight locations required for a WherIgo. Along the way we wanted to find a few additional caches. This was one of them.
When we didn't find the cache at the published coordinates, we gradually widened our search area. The cache was located reasonably quickly but the contents consisted of only one tatty piece of paper. So we supplied a new logbook at an interim measure. Thanks Trail06 for the cache.

Looked (not very well) in the spot where the cache was hidden, missed it, went back and saw it after having a better look. Signed the paper log.
Found the cache but it lacked a log, so put in a replacement. Now about waist high.
Thanks, Trail06
Thanks, Trail06
Found it a bit away from where the coordinates led me but easy to spot. Of course I didn’t have a pencil so couldn’t sign the log. Put it back where I found it, but it’s not up high. TFTC
Just couldn't find it, this was our 1st time searching for geocaches we've found about 4 but just couldn't find this one, definantly coming back later on
It was saying it was in the middle of the road but it obviously wasn’t, so we left it.
Was looking through some of the main features of this area with no luck. Even did some climbing. Whilst exploring a last item some distance away from GZ, I spotted something I had seen before, and this was the cache. I think this cache’s difficulty should probably be raised to 1.5-2 territory for this one.
Logbook was drenched and could not be signed, so probably worth a visit to try to dry out.

Coordinates were about 10-15 m out, we almost have up when we saw something a little out of place.
After a few days of intense work commitments, I finally had some free time to go caching today before I had to head to the airport and home. I headed off in fairly random directions to see what I could find and had a great day out there. Whoever found this cache last moved it out of its D1 position into a D2 position. After quite a bit of searching around in places the cache wasn't I finally saw where it was. I put it back in a D1 position which from a reading of previous logs is where it was supposed to be. TFTC, Biggles.
After a stroll south along the beach,
I detoured inland a bit to mop up some more caches
And arriving at GZ ...
... I could see the cache
I just needed to take a detour to be on the right side of the fence so I could retrieve it [^]

Found it! Definitely not a 1 difficultly tho. If we hadn’t seen them before we would of missed it
Found after a bit of searching, knew coords were a little out, helps if you have found lots of different types before
Found! TFTC
