TFTC! 1 March 2024 7:30:54pm 7552 thanks to Team Piggy for the cache! On the way home a from the Mega in Adelaide via the Barossa, had to make a quick stop to get Thai golden oldie! Thanks so much!

Leaving Tailem Bend and making our way back to Adelaide along country roads collecting a number of caches. This being one of them. Found cache and signed log. TFTC

TFTC. After a bit of a search we finally uncovered it!Setting up camp for a week in Murray Bridge before the MEGA for 29th Feb!Moving to Ballarat for another week afterwards. Last hurrah travelling before wooding season at home starts!Happy caching and safe travels!

The Leap Day Mega was a great excuse to come down from Queensland and weve had a busy time exploring Adelaide and surrounds cache by cache. Meeting up with friends old and new, we sometimes cached with them and sometimes alone but always had a great time. Although I have been to Adelaide before, this trip has shown me so many new and interesting places as Ive chased LGAs, oldies, challenges, interesting D/T combinations, rarer cache types and favourites. Thanks to all COs for placing and maintaining these caches for everyone to enjoy.

Found with the SQUIRM team.We've made the journey down from SE Queensland for the MEGA, so booked ourselves in for a week and a bit, of fun, Festival and caching.After a morning event we are now doing a bit of exploring around the area. Took quite a bit of searching, Davinells came up with the goods??Thanks for the cache ????

Its day 6 and Team SQUIRM are heading east, weve picked up a QLD hitchhiker to make a team of seven for the day. After an event in Mannum we are touring around the area seeing the sights.Driving up we were discussing the relevance to the name but that question was soon answered. We started our search but were led astray for a while by a previous log so it took longer than was necessary. Very happy to find this oldie.Tftc Team PiggyFind #5641

Found in our group of seven Queenslanders unsupervised in Radelaide mega'ing. Stacey's mom has not got it going on so Stacey has to step up to the plate again. All logs signed or stamped as SQUIRM. Thanks for the cache Team Piggy

Another day in Adelaide and SQUIRM are on the road again this time with a hitchhiker from QueenslandAn early start saw us soon stopping to wait for the little man from the village who got Staceys Mum back on the road again after her second flat tyre in two days Weve been too hard on Staceys MumFirst stop was Mannum to attend The Best Breakfast Event in the world ever then more targeted caching challenges, D/Ts, high faves and anything else we stepped over along the way there might even have been a new LGA in thereThanks Team Piggy

Had to stop and grab this as we went past as it is an oldie that we don't have. Had a search but with no luck grabbed our pole out of the car to prod the bushes. A few pokes and prods late a cache was located. tftc#7317

Nope, lol not for us today lol too good for us , even with four eyes ha ha Spent some time looking but we were so tired from driving back from Melbourne to Adelaide, we thought we would leave this for another time

No good today, we looked far and wide.On the way home from a Melbourne trip with Kyliesmiley

Found it! Stopped by on the way home from a day out caching near Murray Bridge and the Kinchina Conservation Park. Found eventually, well hidden after revisiting the first spot I had looked in! TFTC!

Nearby on a motorbike rally and had this one on the list as a golden oldie, so did a quick detour to get it. Thanks for keeping this one going. 22 years old, amazing.

Out today with Magic[8] to celebrate the annual Father’s Day pilgrimage around the regions of Sth Aust.
Today was a mixed bag with more Finds than DNF’s, lucky us.
Thanks for placing and managing the upkeep of hides, regardless of whether we won or failed.
Definitely cache Blindness affected us both today.

Happy fathers day easy find

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location.
(HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Early in 2021 I received an invite from GoosenEgg and Stainless Steel Rat to join them on a caching trip to the Mega in South Australia. As planning got underway some caches with high Favorite points, very old caches, and the On Your Bike Series were listed as "must-dos"

The trip ended up being 10 days of solid and very enjoyable caching with quite a few highlights. The find count for the trip was around the 950 mark when all GCA, Adventure Lab, and GC caches are included. The high point for finds was a day of 335 finds in the one day, which would have been more, but a sudden storm put the end to caching for the day. No one was interested in getting out of the car to find a cache in a downpour in the dark

We were lucky enough to find Gawler Fort Knox, Dustin's Cache, and my favorite for the trip Barossa High (From 21st of January 2001 with the original log book still in place) all in the one day.

Unfortunately, the caching around the mega was beset by bad weather and the day we had put aside for Mount Gambier was scrapped due to a covid case in Mount Gambier on the previous day, so we avoided the area. We all enjoyed the Fishing series and just managed to get the remaining of these before the light failed for the day.

In the end I managed to completed my D/T grid for the first (and possibly the second time) which was my aim for the year, although some of the D/T combinations were not really achievable in Tasmania without a 3 day overnight bush walk.

TFTC

Today we were heading back to Adelaide to fly home. We detoured to find this old cache 'on the way'. The road was a little worse for wear near GZ but didn't bother us at all. A quick find.
Thanks Team Piggy

The Millicent Mega trip had been a long time in the making, for the Tassie trio of stainless steel rat, budgietas and gooseandegg, due to a couple of false starts thanks to COVID19. More and more caches were added to the extensive list as planning was being finalized. We focused on old caches, large caches, certain D/Ts, virtual caches, the On your Bike series and a few other special ones on our journey. Our route saw us caching in Adelaide for a few days before heading north via Gawler to the Barossa in preparation for the On your Bike series, whilst basing ourselves at a gorgeous cottage in Waikerie. We continued on to Renmark for a night before the long trek south to Millicent.
Some of the many highlights along the way were Gawler Fort Knox, Dustin’s Cache, Barossa High and Riverland (the oldest surviving geocache in South Australia).
At the Mega we caught up with a few of our caching friends, made some new ones, and of course missed many who could not make it this time. The weather was not the best in Millicent, and a COVID19 situation in Mt Gambier altered our plans but we had plenty of caches to keep us busy between showers, including tree climbs, plenty of adventure labs, and the entertaining Finding a Fish series - giving the new pole a good workout for the first time.

Today we drove back North to the airport to get our flight home and just had to grab the last few caches on the way, pulling in mainly old caches on our travels. Thanks for having us SA, till next time.

Even with the numbers being down it was great to attend a Mega and at least get to meet some fellow cachers after so long and catch up with a few people, we flew over from Tassie on Thursday and after spending a few days in Adelaide we headed Northeast to clean up some series and then head South to Millicent for the start of the Mega long weekend.

This trip has changed so many times since it was first booked and I'm glad we got to do it at long last, to start with it was just myself and GooseandEgg nipping over for the Mega and then it was a few more days with the addition of 1 toolman, then with lockdown it was back to two of us but then another Tassie cacher in the shape of BudgieTas stepped up to the plate and we were back on for an over a week trip to grab a few caches before the Mega and then finish off with Millicent before flying home on the Tuesday.

Thanks for the cache.

After visiting the Mt Pleasant Farmer’s Markets we returned towards Murray Bridge grabbing a few caches as we passed.

We love the beautiful green Winter scenery in this area.

Many thanks for the hide Team Piggy

Getting these old ones is pretty much as close as you get to a pilgrimage caching.
Thanks

Thanks for the cache team piggy. The n good condition. Great to find an oldie. Nice views here

Mr Tardis was out for a ride through the hills on the motorbike. I stopped here and saw a blue post, then found the cache. Nice to find this historical cache.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Team piggy.

Nice quick drive by TYFTC

Just had to stop
Long day NOT caching and a quick search was my reward for pushing through to Bordertown again
Love finding oldies and this was a small goody that tried to evade me. TYFYC SL fave for your age!

Moving towards Ardrossan, caching and catching up with GeoFriends along the way.

TFTC

I got transferred to murray bridge batch plant for the day. Found on a fatigue break in the truck, going to palmer ( over and over ). Always good to get a old cache, 2001. Slowly getting all the old ones all over S.A. quick find.

Hard to find a black cache in the dark but we got there! TFTC

Found on a beautiful day out from Mannum with Shandyk. Signed log as GuSh. TFTC.

Found on another beautiful day out with Guzs Travellers. We have found this previously so visited travel bugs. TFTC

A quick find today of an oldie! Still in good condition which is great to see. The road is gravel these days so we had no problem getting to the cache in the 4WD Corolla! TFTC

Wow that’s an old one! Found in good condition

Found with Erine14 on a fun day out caching the Monarto-Pallamana-Tepko area! It was a bit cold but not too much wind, and no rain, so really an ideal day for it! TFTC

Now a screw top container.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I had a general plan to head towards Murray Bridge, and do some walks and hiking in one of the many parks in the vicinity. It turned out that there were a few FTFs still available, and so we called past the Monarto area first to find those, before walking through the Monarto Woodlands. We then made a long detour drive past a couple of oldie caches, and called into Murray Bridge for an enjoyable bakery lunch. We then spent the afternoon around the foreshore of Murray Bridge, and completed the new *Port Mobilong* Adventure Lab in the area. A final drive to across the Murray to Riverglades, Avoca Dell, and Murray Bridge East to check out a few new areas, and then returning home in the late afternoon. An enjoyable day with only a few minor showers, but otherwise not too bad.

Whilst we were in the area, I noticed that this older vintage cache was nearby, and was consequently on my target list for finding. We parked pretty much at GZ, and started looking around the bushes and natural debris. It still took us a good five minutes of searching, before I spotted the container, which was now only small sized, not regular as per this geocache's description. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Team Piggy for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance. It was nice to have found this oldie 11/2001 hidden cache.

A fun day out with @Davidwazza! TFTC!

I heeded the warning and walked from the main road. Perfect day for it.

TFTC.

A quick find,TFTC

Found it

Was out'n'about for a bit of a drive and decided to grab a cache purely for the souvenir. Thanks for bringing me to the spot it was a beautiful morning

Thanks for the cache

Quick find on the way to Monarto. This one is an oldie! TFTC.

Today I had a grand plan for caching. Then I woke up with a hangover, for the third Sunday in a row I was feeling seedy due to consuming too much alcohol. This impeded the grand plan. So a new plan was put into place 50 caches became 20 caches.
My first one of the morning was a dnf, not good and 20kms out of the way.
Rest of the day panned out well and a fun day was had, I particularly enjoyed shooting CP with a cannon and also finding a cache hidden in 2001. Plus another 2 caches towards my Freddo tally, slowly making my way to 400 froggy finds.
Couldn't resist stopping for this golden oldie, not too many left from 2001 so glad to pick up another. Have been targeting older caches lately for a challenge I am trying to complete, still a long way to go.
TFTC Team Piggy

Found while going for a drive with dome friends - always nice to find a Piggy cache! TFTC

Couldn’t find it... turns out o was pretty much standing on it... signed log. TFTC.

Wooohooo!!!! Early start to the day before heading home. Glad to find a really old one that is in great shape. Tftc

Artie lane

Nice, thanks for the cache

Tftc I have had a great day such interesting caches
Thanks again for all your effort

We soon found this cache once at Ground Zero. We signed the log book and then replaced as found after having first picked up the Kangaroo Pink Travel Bug. Thanks so much for the cache and a favourite point for keeping this golden oldie cache in the game. Greetings from Zimbabwe

I had a great day with Whitepaws9 from Victoria because we chatted and laughed along the drive.

Thanks Team Piggy for the cache

Great to find another old timer. Found blu post straight away and crossed over to the trees and found the container. Left a tb for it to continue its travels. Tftc

An afternoon of caching with Trail06 to pick up Bindi's new series.

Found them all and a few others that we came across on our travels

We saw the post, no cache there. Crossed the road and found the cache.

TFTC

Found with Team Waldron. We found the pole easily but the cache took us a bit longer. TFTC.

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Was heading back to Adelaide after working in the area and it was lunchtime and so decided to find a cache or two. Saw this on the map and decided to deour in and make the find. Parked near GZ and quickly identified the hide. Hopped out of the car, left the engine running, quickly located the cache, signed the log and replaced it in its hide. On the way back to the car spotted the Blue Pole. Nothing arty about that blu pole.
Gratias Pro Cache Team Piggy

Despite recently completing my Jasmer grid by going to the USA, I do love finding an old 2001 cache, yay! A quick one early in the morning and then we were off to the next.

What a fabulous day out...so fabulous that we stamped 98% of the logs as "Fabulous Randoms" (the others we wrote our names).

We completed 3 OTD series, picked up the tribute series to the US iconic trails (ET Highway & Route 66) and stopped to find a number of other random caches including ones with high fav points or interesting D/Ts. Over 160 finds - it was worth the 5am start (to try and beat the heat).

Thanks so much for the cache Team Piggy! [^]

A decision about a day of caching with Goodlook was orgained in the not so distant past to clean up some caches around swan reach and murray bridge.

A successful with no DNF’s and 165 caches finds, completing 3 on this date (OTD) series and some of the fruit loop with a few trads along the way.

Majority if the log books were stamped with FABULOUS RAMDOMS and 5 or 6 we wrote our individual caching names in.

TFTC

Heading through to Condowie with kenbryl, we couldn’t resist stopping to find this one. Tftc

Kenare and I were heading passed and thought we could drop a tb off in this one. We parked, found the cache and then realised we left the tbs in the car. It was too windy to walk back to car, Nevermind. Tftc

Nice easy drive by for this kids. Thanks

TFTC:D

Yes it is a blue pole.
Thanks for the hide.

Today we tackled 3 more OTD series that took us through the country side, up and down the gravel roads and through a few small towns for morning tea and lunch. The puzzles were worked out the night before and the day was planned around the 3 OTD series from Murray Bridge and back again, as well as picking up a few other caches along the way.

Thanks for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Pprime, Crew 153, and I were visiting South Australia with a primary target of getting some old-timey caches.

Pprime navigated me through all these roads before we finally pulled up at this one. Oh there is a track. We stuck our nose in. Not a problem for our ASX today (I do note the cache owner put the warning about the condition of the track nearly 16 years ago - so I will cut them some slack )

We parked up and headed toward GZ. Mr Pprime soon made the find. We signed the log and re-hid the cache as found. Another oldie crossed off the list. TFTC Team Piggy

Pprime (P'), Fangsoki and I had planned a long weekend assault on South Australia caches. We were targeting old, rare, unique and interesting caches.

We were on day 4 which would take us from Adelaide to the Victoria Border and back for Pprime and Fangsoki to catch their flight home We were chasing 10 finds for the day.

This cache was on our hit list because of its age.

Yep! It is blu. We took a lot of dirt roads to zig and zag through the country from the previous find and had a quick find here.

TFTC Team Piggy

This was find 45 of 54 finds for the weekend.

Three Mad Queenslanders (Fangsoki, Crew153 and I) have arrived in Adelaide for a long weekend chasing old caches. This is day four, last day, and we are heading East today. Picked our way along YADRs (yet another dirt road) from another nearby oldie and pulled up at the afore mentioned post and made a quick find. Time for a new coffee I think.
Thanks for placing this cache, Team Piggy. Found in good condition.
