A beautiful view here!No luck with the cache. I think someone may have been through and picked up all the rubbish in this area as it was lovely and tidy but am wondering if the cache went with them! Either that or we just didn't look hard enough will give it a go another day!

What a shame, we couldn't find it. Very windy and rainy. Definitely want to come back for a better look on a warmer day

I came to find this cache nearly 2 years ago but someone was doing some farming at GZ so left it, today I stopped at GZ and no one was around so a quick find was had.Today with an event in the hills, I headed out for a half days walking plus a few others yet to be found in the area. With the weather being mild for a summers day it made for a great day out.Thanks for the cache

It seemed like it should be a waterproof container but it wasn't so a wet log was signed. It is worth the view. Thanks Cruiz-n for the hide and view

Owl has had a busy few weeks, so it was past time for a maintenance run. Having done what she needed to do it was time for a bit of recreation. This was one of those days she should not have been caching - miscounted numbers, spelling errors, cache blindness. All in all, not her finest day. However, no DNFs! This one was nearly one, due to cache blindness, but returning to the first spot she'd checked and a little more digging got the half-cache. A great view and ample parking was appreciated.

Thanks for the cache cruiz n. Not the first inside out cache I have seen. All good for now. Great views

Out & About with clare007 after work collecting a couple of caches close to home...
More great views...
We found the cache...it did not have a lid but the logbook in the plastic bag was dry...
We put the whole container into a strong plastic bag and placed back where we located it...

Here with hevwalker this afternoon grabbing some caches for her calendar.
As it was a nice afternoon I agreed to go out for a drive for some caches and company.
I managed to find the cache, but it was missing a lid.
So a spot of maintenance was completed before we released the cache back to its spot.
Thanks for the hide & the view Cruiz-n

It turns out that 8 out of every 10 working days I seem to start at Welland batch plant and then drive to little Hampton batch plant, this seems to be the new pattern. Bonus days are if I do this on a Saturday. A truck driver needs to have a 15 minute break in the first 5.5 hours, then another 15 minute break before 8 hours and another 30 minute break before 11 hours or two 15 minute breaks. This was found in the 2nd fatigue break. I stopped first, then looked at the view, and then wondered if this place had a cache. Opened app, walked the 11 meters and wrote my name in the logbook. quick find. Now what I am going to do for the next 12 minutes of my break ???

Found on our exercise trip for the day.

Socially distant with Sebastbat and Purrfect Di.

Nice views all the way along here.

Another quick cache find. Quite wedged in.

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.

We now find our selves in the big smoke! So many more caches to find. Booked into the local caravan park for a week, hopefully doing some urban caching while here.

Out for a day caching the Adelaide hills. Stopped in Lobethal at the Rising Sun for a coffee. New management, we had a good chat before setting out for the two town caches.

The valley is so green, after dry of Kangaroo Island (before the burn) and burn of Lobethal area (after the fires) Thanks for bringing us here to enjoy the view Cruiz-n

Had a lovely day riding around the Hills with Davidwazza! Was a little chilly, but no rain in the end so made for a lovely day! Another lovely spot to take a rest from the hill climbs and enjoy the views

Planned for a bike ride around the hills grabbing caches on the way with jesswrigley. Was a little brisk in winter, but we had no rain and ended up riding 35 km around the hills.

Cache was in good condition, and similar to location#1, this was another good spot for views. Many thanks!

Yesterday I grabbed my daily cache out here, so I headed straight back out to grab todays (I'm on holidays so a decent drive out is doable). Lovely views, and a nice drive back through Nairne. TFTC.
 
15-Jul-17
The view was still awesome today, despite a bit of fog hanging around.

The cache was a nice quick find, which was good as last time we were here we had to log a DNF.

Picked up [Enjoy the Beach TB](https://coord.info/TB730V5) to move along to another cache.

Thanks Cruiz-n.

As we drove back from a successful search for a puzzle cache, we saw that this cache was on the road we were travelling. There was a safe parking spot very close to GZ. Before heading to look for the cache, we took a could of minutes to appreciate the views - looking across the valley on a perfect day was worth stopping for. Accurate coordinates led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Cruiz-n for the cache and for bringing us to appreciate this view.

Easy find but lots of cars going up and down the road. Had to look like taking photos. Beautiful views. Could pick out my house. Brand new log. Felt like a First to Find. Left trackable for the next cacher to find. Also left some swaps for the kids as cache was empty. Needs a pencil. Unfortunately I didn't have one to leave. TFTC.

Replaced log.

Over here visiting a friend who unfortunately is laid up in the Royal Adelaide hospital and with not a lot of time for caching we decided to concentrate on earth caches as we always enjoy these and you don't have to worry about urban muggles.
Travelling between two earth caches this one came up on the radar so we stopped.
We pulled up here and had to agree with the cache name, there are some great views across this valley. As we were heading to gz we found a finger puppet sitting on a branch of a tree and started to think the worst and then not long after we located the container but unfortunately the log was very wet and we had trouble getting our initials onto the paper.
This one needs a bit of TLC.
Thanks Cruiz-n for the cache.

Yellow tailed black cockatoos,
The view!!!
Electric guitar on the distance,
Whiny goats and now I hear a trumpet. All lovely with the sound of magpies plus the gentle breeze under the pine trees.
Need deck chair, cheese and wine! Not just any cheese and wine. Smile.
Some from that muffling goat would be good. Thanks!

Another find on our cruiz-n through the hills. Loved the view and the goats although they are obviously terrified of 9 cachers and 3 vehicles as the left in a hurry. Another great view especially at dusk. TFTC.

Having left work at 5.15pm, I was worried that I might not make it to the Special GOTHS Farewell Dinner by 6pm and I really wanted to farewell the effervescent Mogni who had, as for so many others, provided me with her bubbly company on several caching runs,

I actually arrived about 6.04pm. Big Grin Therefore, I attended the Special GOTHS Farewell Dinner event and it was my 1,538th cache on day 335 of continuous caching Big Grin

After the event, being escorted around by the knowledgeable firesafe, Laighside Legends, earthlight and I with muff1, Aussie M&M, Brisal5 and the starring guest Mogni managed to get a few smileys in our initially three and then later two car caching convoy. CoolBig Grin

At the end of the night (which was actually the next morning), I had locus cache'd successfully on 21 caches and 1 event for the second (ok, well two caches blended into the third) day of the year! Big Grin

This side was just as lovely a view as # 1, just in a different direction! [^] Cool

Again, thanks for bringing us here to see this gorgeous spot as the sun started to set in the west.
