Great views, Snapper! ??
And a sneaky hiding spot.
Log was very damp. I had to use a market to sign. My apologies, no fresh logs on me!

Nice easy find while walking from Hallet Cove Beach to Marino Rocks. RIP Snapper. Thanx
Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I had an enjoyable Mother's Day breakfast with my parents, which turned out quite timely to coincide with the morning rain showers. After that downpour, the weather turned out great, with the sun out and blue skies, quite unexpectedly actually. The plan was to head south for a few small hikes/walks, and in the end, we did a few coastal walks, starting with the Marino Coastal Walking Trail, and then some walks inland in Lonsdale, and back to the coastal walking trail, which included seeing the new desalination plant from the outside. A final bakery visit, food shopping, and Bunnings Warehouse visit concluded our day, with a quick stop at Reynella on the way back home.
A few muggles about today, probably enjoying their mother's day walks from eating a large lunch? One smallish group just passed us here at GZ, and we did need to think about a few locations, before seeing the "easy" find. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Lava12 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Sneaky hide! A lovely day out despite the morning showers exploring the area with [@Davidwazza](http://coord.info/PR61VZX) ! TFTC!
Quick find on a glorious sunny social distancing Easter Monday with Cazzamataz. TFTC #507

This area of the coastal walk has been temporarily closed by Council for repairs 
- I'll have to come back in a few months....
- I'll have to come back in a few months....Another Wednesday Wander for some members of the Puzzled Puzzlers group in search of solved puzzles and any other caches we might wander by. 
Today it was just myself Blackadders and suSHilOrD who is complaining I can't get the upper and lower case in his name right! [^] Time for us to go and explore the Hallett Cove Conservation Park and surrounds. 
Never had the pleasure of meeting Snapper.

After a Doctors appointment left the Adder late for the rendezvous point he had to catch up to the others of the Puzzled Puzzlers troupe consisting of the Starfish and Fish lord.
Spotted at arrival at GZ by the Adder. Log signed by all and returned, covered in a little more natural cammo. TFTC

Made the walk along the coat to GZ, some amazing views towards the city. Took a bit to locates the cache as it was well hidden.
A morning trip down to some of the southern suburbs on the coast line (seaview, maarino and Hallet cove). A different spot I had never been before but some lovely views over the coast line and the coastal walk had some amazing views. A lot of muggles out and about as it was not too hot, great to see the weather take a turn after the past week. Some great hides with a total of 19 finds and 1 Did not find.
Thnks for the cache.

I can't believe back on 4 Nov 2018, I passed this and a few others along this popular walking trail whilst pushing my bike {bad move that, unless the bike is 'Very' light... mine ain't [B)]… a walk and workout in one }
Made the swift find this morning between Muggle traffic [:o] They are everywhere! but then again it is perfect weather [^]
A great day to be out Caching hardcore!

Took us a little while but we found it! It was a bit wet and no pencil, can someone please bring one x
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. A lovely spot for a tribute cache. Glad that I was able to pay my respects to Snapper!!! after a bit of a search. Not in the first few places I checked but it didn't take too long to find it. TFTC, Biggles.
Found this little box while my muggle buddy, his dad and their dog were taking a break from walking this great boardwalk. Perfect weather to be out and about during wintertime.

Quick find while out walking on a crazy weather day. It went from sunny to rainy instantly, but it’s still a beautiful trail no matter what. TFTC
Despite the lovely 22 degree weather and sunshine, the wind up here this afternoon had a bit of chill to it. But that was soon forgotten as I celebrated having yet another Lava12 smiley on my map.
Thanks for the cache Lava12. Found on 30 Dec 2017 at 3:21 pm. Find #5639.

Out for a beautiful morning walk to find a few caches. Had to find it on the walk back as too many muggles first time past.

A quick find here but I didn't find the hint all that helpful.--Sl---TNLN-----TFTC.
Beautiful day for a lovely walk! Found cache fairly easily. There's no pencil though so you need to bring your own.
An Easy find on a lovely Sunny Autumn afternoon walk along the local path.

Loving this walk the views are spectacular and legs getting a pretty good work out too!! TFTC
A good place to stop and catch my breath after all the stairs. Lovely weather to be out in a boat today too, lots of the out there. TFTC
Very pleasant afternoon stroll with Pony1966, after a hot morning foray. We attempted this one in our very early caching days (before we had a GPS... or a phone - we were using printed maps!)... no wonder we didn't find it first time around

. TFTCApty beat me to it, I was busy having a fierce conversation with a cloud of flies for a moment 
It is lovely to have a memorial of a past cacher like this.

Snap this up after looking 7m to the north, then using a bit of nounce.
Walking the track back from Brighton to Hallett Cove. We did the north journey this morning.

Attempted to walk Brighton to Hallett Cove. Mister 6 had enough not far past and this was the first cache on the way back. A quick find and sign and we were on our way again. TFTC.
Found while out climbing stairs nearby with my muggle friend preparing for the Great Wall of China ! Beautiful pre spring day and loads of people doing the same thing. Thanks for the cache.
Needing a find for the day I decided to brave the winds and rain before training and give this one an attempt. Thankfully though, the rain held off for just long enough, though the wind definitely provide quite a force. However I was able to make a quick find once at gz.

What a sensational view. A great day for a walk. Lots of up and down - reasonable health required. TFTC.
I met snapper!!! at an event when I first started geocaching, he was a lovely man, and I think he would be happy that cache has been placed in his honor as a tribute. I think that is really lovely of you Lava12 in doing this for him. RIP Snapper!!!
This is a great coastal wal. Enjoyed watching dolphins and a seal amongst the fishing boats.
Thanks Lava12, a nice memorial to your friend.

Saturday 20 February 2016 - a glorious Summer's day in the mid twenties (26) without a cloud in the sky and a cool breeze all the way. Started walking at 7.45am from Halet's Cove thru to Flinder's Hospital in Bedford Park arriving 5.5 hrs later having walked 14.5kms. Found 8 caches with 5 not found. TFTC.
A short stroll from the last cache and another quick find.
TFTC Lava12. No Snapper were spotted today.
Or yesterday when I almost got blown out to sea on my kayak.

An absolutely stunning location, however this one was a bit of a nightmare. Do not take a bike on the boardwalk... Unless of course you enjoy carrying 17kg bikes up 30m of very steep steps 
Still. Liked the cache and loved the views.
Thanks lava12!

Well, this one was... nice?
We left the bike path for the coastal track. After climbing down some stairs with our bikes, we assumed we would be able to cycle along the track to the cache. Not so.
Well, I do enjoy some excercise.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Lava12.

WOW there are some big houses here and some beautifully big views, pity the weather is so bad today. Grabbed the log signed and replaced just as another shower started. TFTC Lava12
I am the CO of a tribute cache for the person who introduced me to caching so this one was special for me. A wonderful location. TFTC
