Found it! A few laps of GZ and the cache was spotted! TFTC!

As per my log the attachment method of this one probably needs some attention.

This cache was found today and brings our overall cache find tally to 13834. A fairly easy find today with Farmer Frentzen, cant say I was excited by the cache attachment method though. Might need to be rethought. Thanks Squizzie_ for the cache.

#24713. Have found a few caches hidden in this type of tree NZ, but I don't think I've seen a hide quite like this before. Nicely done. TFTC.

After arriving at our accommodation in Nurioopta, StreetWalkerNZ and I had a reviving cup of time, then went out to find some cache and some food.What a lovely spot to have a wedding - provided the weather played ball. We were looking for a different sort of hide when a previous log had us looking for something else and a quick find after that. Thanks for bringing me here and TFTC.

Caching with team SPBINZ, Sidewaze, Paddle chick, bullertrout, IsisNZ and Nanzie. After a great day yesterday putting (almost) all of the bunches of grapes in the "Barossa" series back how they were we're having a much more varied day today and having a good look around. Thanks for the cache and greetings from Aotearoa / New Zealand. ??!(Sorry about the late log, by the time the logs on our trip had been "audited" I was off on another adventure ??)

Very cool chapel. Sidewaze, Paddle Chick, Bullertrout, IsisNZ and Nanzie are caching our way around the Barossa signing our logs as SPBINZ or some variation on that. TFTC Squizzie#16444

Caching with SPBINZ around Barossa very interesting chapel this deserves a favorite thanks Squizzie
 
02-Mar-24
Yesterday we were out signing off as many of the grape geoart as we could. Today we are out on a bit of a random caching mission and now that we are off the trail we are seeing a few more of the sights and a lot more of the region. What a delightful chapel - worth a favourite. While we were here that was a huge racket from a kookaburra in a nearby tree - when we looked to see what all the commotion was about we could see a rodent hanging from its mouth. I guess it was showing us all just how clever it was. Goodness knows how it could still call out and keep hold of it but it did. Found as part of the SPBINZ team (Sidewaze, Paddle Chick, Bullertrout, IsisNZ, and Nanzie). TFTC Squizzie and kia ora from Aotearoa/New Zealand # 21,999**tepoti/Dunedin is the place to be 26-27 October, 2024 for GCA7ZHD - Geo Toroa Mega! Please come and join in the fun, find heaps of caches and experience some wonderful Southern hospitality.**Kookaburra mouse

AussieGal88 and myself are spending our daylight hours going on a trip up to the Barossa for a day of cache finding and also to visit the GeoStuff store.

We travelled around Nuriootpa, Angaston and Greenock and got a total of 17 finds and one adventure lab completed for the day for this pineapple.

Once at GZ we did a few laps of the tree and eventually the well crafted container was spotted.

Definitely not the container I was expecting it to be, you can never assume anything while playing this game.

I had made an assumption about the cache and when I tried to focus elsewhere I found it.

I signed the log book as "Goldy".

The cache and contents are in good condition.

Well done on the camo.

Thanks Squizzie for this traditional cache, which brings Goldy's total find count to 3439 on the 26th of August 2023.


CITO's are a brilliant way to help keep our community area's clean. The Earth is our playing field and we need to protect it!

Always be sure to cache the "leave no trace" way!


**South Australia is the place be for GCA1DNA - February 29th, 2024 in Adelaide! Hope to see you at The Great Leap Forward!**
