Dead but not Buried Macclesfield, South Australia, Australia
By 12drawer on 30-Jun-10. Waypoint GC2B0V1

thanks for that ministro..... as we have a holiday booked next weekend we won't be able to move this for a while, so i will archive it. sorry folks....

we will put another one somewhere at some point.

Such a shame this cache has been played with, I climbed up and saw the old cache contents down the bottom of the hole, but no way to get to it. Hope its ok if I log a find anyway.

Sorry folks, but we are going to have to move this one (we are not sure where yet) as it keeps being messed around with & therefore will remain a premium only cache when we move it.

Oh my word! i can't believe it has been inactive since November - sorry all..... we have had Christmas, New Year, Australia Day, Gravfest & now is the time for Mr K to sort it out before Easter & our Holiday!

Technically we found it - or what's left of it. The base is missing, sorry 12drawer. The top was out and we placed it away so as not to draw more attention. Had a look around but couldn't find the rest. The concept was really good and we were disappointed it had been ruined.

It has fallen off! Will fix it soon.

Awesome awesome awesome!

Found It!
Neat little hide, shame is PM only
TFTC anyway

Loved it - retrieved the geocoin - thnaks for the fun from postiegirl06

We looked at GZ and thought 'ha, no way!' So I made Mr Marauder grab the cache [;D] and then I signed the log. How awesome - couldn't help it and had a good old giggle at ourselves.

Watch out that the dog nextdoor doesn't alert the muggles!

Has to be one of our favourites to date and will get a favourite point from us.

TFTC 12drawer!

Last time we visited here way to many muggles about not so today on this damp day quick find TFTC

ok, so we have completely replaced the whole cache jar & all the contents, luckily there were no travel bugs or geocoins in it at the time...........happy hunting.....

Found awhile ago but obviously forgot to log it. Had to put our car in off the road for assistance and if you are doing the same, I suggest that you look properly before reversing or you will end up backing into a pole like I did!!

will check the cache later today, feeling i may change all mine to premium caches as there seems to be a lot of muggle activity which really makes me cross....... thanks for the heads up.

TNLN. Hard to tell, but possibly may have been peed in by the same idiot as another cache we found today in maccy. May need maintenance.

disabled until i sort it out.

just drove home from Mt Barker to see the cache in plain view!!!! was worried that it had been muggled but after checking it, all is well & everything looks fine in the cache. please ensure you replace as found after happy hunting......

Nice One.

Found for scout comp.

With TPP, Jeffeddy and jeffery11

Found while caching with Jeffrey11, Sars12 and Team Pedal pushers.

Mr LoftyReasons became Mr LiftyReasons when he boosted Oli after footy. Wet day. But Oli kicked a goal. He also found this cache! TFTC 12Drawer!

Great cache. Quick to find but not so easy to get too. Gets a fave point. TFTC.

Found with the kids!

Found it yesterday. Our first ever find. Many more to come.

Saw someone find this one and wondered what on earth they were doing. Checked it out and discovered Geocaching.

Love it! Great hide. Thanks.

Wow what a great cache love it

Gave my friend the needed boost great cache for a giggle!

Taking baby grandson for an evening walk. Just as well he can't talk yet as his granny must have looked a funny sight retrieving this one. I am amazed that I did it. Certainly will be a favourite hide for me. TFTC

Great hide! We had heaps of fun finding this one. Cheeky little cryptic clue in the name

Found it ok. Did not spot the approaching muggle who was on foot, who said "what you two up to?" We gave her a quick run down about geocaching !
TFTC

Arriving, I could see where I had to go... had to wait for a few muggles at a nearby house. Managed to make the find without any traffic going by. Surprised I could get it as, I don't have much uupper body strength, but with a good footing it was easy. Thanks

I like this one Seen a couple this recently but always fun regardless beats a simple container by a base of a tree TFTC

As we rocked up to this one we thought ohh no not another cemetery cache, as we had done many of them over the last few weeks. But surprised to find it wasn't ..

Great cache no ladder required for this one either just some good upper body strength and well placed footing

Thanks for the cache 12drawer

Favorite point as this is my 1500th cache and for the effort you guys have gone to

Glad to have had locus cache with her tool to help retrieve these types of caches.
Took trackables to visit.
Love old cemetery's
TFTC

Someone at the Farewell tea for mogni brought up about doing the TDF series and tentative plans were made to do it today..... however due to the high temperatures (44degrees yesterday) earthlight suggested going down south and so here we ended up.

Although we didn't get very far south LOL as we only made it to Macclesfield for lunch at 2pm (and the edge of Strathalbyn about 8pm and definitely not Victor Harbor) but by the end of the day, we had managed to successfully locus cache on 39 caches and I also placed a new one

We even managed to get a 4star terrain cache which surprised us but luckily it didn't beat us as we had the magic geotool

I had been going to leave the magic geotool in the car today when I got into earthlight's car but luckily ~*KittyKat*~ had an urge to pack the geotool and so we did! By the time we got to this cache, I was really in approval of the fact that we followed her ruge [^]

Loved the cache, just a shame that we didn't have time to explore the dead heart of town, nearby

SL. TFTC 12drawer

Deja vú! We have just done another cache like this!
This is awesome!
We walked up, "oh, it's not... Is it? Oh yes, it is!"
Luckily we came prepared!
Definitely a dead one!

Good one.

Liked this hide. Was expecting something else but love the name. Aussie Mark was feeling a bit dizzy and then I needed him to make the find. Luckily he made it with no accidents. TFTC.

Great spot for a cache! Bit of climbing, but I love the unique hide.

Another favourite point for you, 12drawer. This was an excellent adventure and it was kinda funny watching GeoAJ make the clamber up the side of the structure. I think it'd be more suited to an agile youngster than a middle-ager, lol. Took nothing. Left some hairclips and some birthday candle holders. Thanks for the adventure, the cache and the laughs.

Deb took a hit for the team retrieving this one. Deterred by not defeated! Lots of muggles in cars and on foot going by.

On the trail of cache hunting in Macclesfield today, is a particularly creative find in an interesting place.
The cache looked a bit sad, so I added a long sticker as there was plenty of room.
I basically had the place to myself, guess no-one comes out this way any more.
Cheers 12 drawer for the really creative cache.

Great hide!

The kids and wife went and found this one with out me. Oh well there are plenty more out there to find.

First one we've officially found. Very exciting.

Nice cache on a nice day

Found while visiting for a Sunday market. Luckily I had Blinky with me, to grab to cache.
Thanks

Nice one. Tftc

Huds, Jett, Charlee, Travis

Excellent hide! The cache was retrieved, logged and returned without any bother from traffic or neighbours. At least this one was far easier than the HFL cache in Macclesfield, which we simply did not even attempt.

Thanks 12drawer.

ninja away!!!!

Impromptu caching /
Replacing a couple /
With Voogoofish

TFTC

Out with the Rogue again. Loved this cache, because the rogue was able to use his ninja skills to retrieve this. All I had do do was keep a lookout / ear out for muggles cars. Just as Rogue got it out and it was just hanging around, along comes muggle jogger! Doh. Nowhere to hide, just admiring the dead tree Mr. muggle jogger. It was time to quickly sign the log and make like a lizard and goanna. TFTC. As if it didn't have enought favourite points, have another one.

Quick find on an Adelaide Hills run with The Turner Gang, voogoofish and Dorkess37 TFTC

Found this cache after 5 years of living in Maccy, not knowing about geocaching & living not even 3kms from Gz. I arrived with 8 year old Maddimoo but decided 2 return with her awesome tree climbing 10yr old bro Aidan who grabbed the cache in his little arms with the aid of tongs & straight away the log below from Team Pedal Pushers about needing a longer chain was apparent. Do not attempt this cache around school time as too many muggles can give this away. Tftc

We knew it had to be there but, how to get at it?.
Having achieved our objective, we realised that we now had to replace it !.
Enjoyed the challenge and a favourite from us.

What a great cache, hethdil did the work SL, favourite point from us! TFTC

Getting toward the last of our geocaches for the day torches at the ready.....it has to be there did the work secured the prize great cache favorite points here TFTC

Fantastic spot!

A great find. A great cache for the family. Need a bit longer chain.

Nice hide tftc

A quick find for the three of us, but a fun find. Toddler Tardis was most impressed with the cache when it appeared. Thankfully no muggles about during our retrieval or replacement. SL. Thanks for the cache 12drawer.

Definitely been to this one previously too.
Sorry for these late logs. I reckon it was sometime last year! I can tell the owner how I retrieved the cache if that helps prove I was here.
Thanks, and a nice hide too!

Love the hide - definitely worth a favourite point. T: TB L: Nothing. TFTC.

Nice easy find. Left t/bug took badge. SL TFTC

Nice tour around the area finding some good caches. A bit of a search soon had this one located. Very good. SL TFTC

School holidays = cache hunting with the boys.

Nice sport! TFTC!!!

Teamwork, that's the name of the game on this one! Though geoD did all the heavy lifting so is claiming this one as his!

TNLN SL TFTC

Another climber but fun. TFTC. Took Tazo left rhino.

This is such a cool cache...Got to it easily!
TFTC

As I arrived at GZ, I had some suspicions about what was going to be required, and the hint seemd to confirm it. I think that DISK has pretty well covered it in his log, not much more I can add to that!

TNLN - Thanks 12drawer!

ta for cache

Great hide. Smart hint and intriguing log by DISK eventually appreciated.

Great cache, great name, great effort. We loved it. One favourite point coming your way

Found in the company of Contact Zero
LOVED the construction of this, reminded me of one of mine....lol
Fave point

our last day in Maccelesfield and couldn't resist just one more before we left, as it turned out a great hide, and well constructed a week lake I had issue in Murray Hill with a similar one but this one is all good.
thanks 12drawer

Spotted the spot when we drove up, but took a minute to spot the other spot we needed to spot where the cache could be spotted [8].
Instantly worked out the spot we need to spot to get to the spot where the cache could be spotted from .
Quickly retrieved from the spot we'd spotted between passing muggle traffic going past the spot [8)].
Took doll. Left Sylvester. SL.
Thanks for spotting this spot so we could also spot the spot and find the cache [^].
Neat hide . Thanks again 12Drawer. Nice spot (either dead or buried) !

Thanks god I have special tool in my car and signed the log. Thanks 12drawer.

Peaceful spot. Thanks 12drawer

...and what a memorable #500!!!
Great hide for the milestone,
We were a little unsure of the cache going by the name,
but to have a few Favourite points,
(and another now!), this is the one.
Thanks for the cache and the hunt 12drawer

Found on a trip around Macclesfield.

Fred returned from England last week with a geocoin. we have now placed it in our cache for someone else to pick it up and move it on.... thanks

This is an Awesome Cache! I loved this one.
I had to dodge the cars to grab this cache!! I'm making it a Fav!!!

Found at 11:05 AM with XBRmob. Clever hide but you need the vitamins before you find the vitamin pot. Not exactly the tree of knowledge but I now know more than I did yesterday!

Still out in the heat. I'm sure it wasn't anywhere near the 42°C of Adelaide but still warm enough.

Where the acche would be was quite obviously really, and it was a nice surprise to see the effort you'd put in to create this one. Well done.

A quick grab, stamp and date and back to the cool of the car.

Arrow disease had be discounting the obvious. Stupid arrow. TFTC

As we were coming up the street I predicted where it would be. A discounted it, but then had to admit that she was wrong when we pulled up.
After waiting out a muggle walking the dog, the cache was quickly retrieved, but not by the usual mountain goat, as for once I was quicker to climb a tree!

TNLNSL

Great hide! Out caching with Bronsen. TFTC

Great cache, SL, TNLN
Thanks

This is brilliant, love your work.
Quick find and sign whilst out with Bregor for the afternoon.
Might just dabble in a bit of plagiarism for my next cache.

TNSL - L - Australian Penny 1948
Thanks again for the cache

Found with The Penny Drops who retrieved the cache. I'm not that tall nor a good scaler. Loved the cache. Thanks 12drawer for the cache and hunt.

Awesome hide. Luckily one of us is six foot five and a bit of a monkey! TFTC

cool hide... liked it. my muggle friends first taste of geocaching.

What a cool cache!
Love the idea
Took buscuit cutter and left something but cant remember what but it was better then half the junk people have left
e.g. plastic forks and bottle caps
TFTC

While Mrs E and the little Miss E's attend the swim meet, Mr T and I went caching. Great hide!! T: Coin, LNSL. TFTC.

TFTC at last had a chance to sign this one off after finding it had been muggled the last visit we did

This was a great hide, one of the best for the day. The name of the cache made more and more sense as we went on. Enjoyed the play on words. Thanks for bringing us here.
