Find # 15931Been a while since I've been out solo for a long trip. But things change over time. And I'm living the past.So with some time off work, I've jumped the border wall to chase down some long trails in South Aussie... don't know how many I'll get. But I've got quite a few downloaded. I do have a short hit list ( of 2) caches to help with a challenge. All others are just for the Adventure and countryside views. Armed with all the necessary TOTT from tweezers and magnet grab to 6m ladder and 8m fishing pole. I believe I'm prepared for all that I'll come across. (Just had to leave the Kayak at home )Day 7. Naracoorte to HomeA day to take in the sites of the Naracoorte area before jumping back over the border. To head for home. Grabbing the odd cache along the way. Great to find this size cache.... and a great little place to find. SmileTFTC dazzpete

After completing a personal challenge in SA of finding 10,000 physical caches there we are now heading from Beachport back to Portland aiming to grab a couple of caches along the way on roads not normally traveled if the weather permits.The rain had started to easer so we thought that we would try our luck at this one and it must have been meant to be as the rain stopped as we pulled up.We headed off to gz where the great sized cache was found quickly right where the GPSr was indicating and our name has been added to the log.Many thanks dazzpete for the cache, we're not sure why but it always feels good to find a good sized cache rather than just a nano.

What a great picnic area. It would be lovely on a nice day. This afternoon I came for a drive with PrincessAria1 & LittleG00sE. One of the little ones was not keen to use the long drop.
The cache was found quickly & in great condition. We took a couple of swags & placed a couple. We got back in the car just as it started to rain.

On my way to Teaming up with TheRobbos3266 and armed with my entry permit to South Australia we met up in Kalangadoo for our first day of caching in the Millicent area. Today we targeted the wine bottle puzzles which had long been solved. Found most but a few eluded us and only managed a small fragment of the wine glass Weatherwise it was a most unpleasant day with the temperature reaching 39 and an extremely strong northerly almost blowing me over at times. All up a very successful day in great company. Thanks for a great series

Driving through this area and decided to try for this cache. Drove in most of the way but didn’t tackle the last hill in the 2WD after last nights rain. Walked in and with excellent co ords we soon had the cache in hand. Great area, thanks dazzpete.
 
16-Jan-19
Driving from Naracoorte to Portland. Quick grab and a short break made this stop worthwhile. TFTC!
 
23-Dec-18
Called in to check on this today - all is good. The pine plantation nearby is private property but the track in here is not.
 
19-Dec-18
On the day we tried this, 14 December, the track was barred by a big Do Not Enter sign from the company that owns the land. Maybe some temporary work going on,

After spending the morning at the Kelpie Muster we headed out of town to check on our caches. Found by memory and with everything in good order.
 
05-Mar-17
We were thankful for the dry weather as the road would most likely be very slippery in wet weather. After a short drive off the highway we were able to park our car within 60m of GZ. From there accurate coordinates led to a quick find of a good sized and very robust cache container. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks dazzpete for the cache.
 
02-Mar-17
Day Two of our holiday, BettyBoo3747 and I headed towards Robe from Hamilton.
Got up late-ish and slowly made our way across to SA, caching as we found them on our trail.
Been a while since we have seen an Ammo can! Good to see a reasonable sized cache.
Nice little picnic area, but a bit early for lunch, so we had a hot-crossed bun instead (on account it is a bit early for Easter too!)
Thanks, Robmc.
 
02-Mar-17
#11553. Day 2 of our holiday and today Robmc and I headed from Hamilton, over the border and on to Robe for a few days. Naturally we stopped to find a few caches along the way.

All quiet here this morning as we bumped our way in along a fairly firm track. There were a lot of naked ladies (of the flowering variety) pretty in pink dotted around the picnic site. The did look rather out of place here in the bush but were pretty all the same. We seemed to take the long way to GZ and then noticed some clearer tracks heading back to the chariot. An ammo can, how about that - haven't seen one in a while. Left one of my Phryne - Mirror Pathtags

Thanks dazzpete

Thanks for the hide. Nice area to camp in, took a local to this hide, she has lived in the area for a few years now but never been here. Kids took 2 toys and we replaces with other toys and a TB.
 
28-Mar-16
Suscoe was heading to Casterton today and so a few caches needed to be found along the way.
We left home early but didn't start finding caches til late morning.
It was a cloudy day for the most part but luckily no drizzle or rain.
This was the 18th and last find of the day.
A pleasant drive to the picnic grounds and we enjoyed the peace and quiet here.
A few parrots calling.
Thanks to dazzpete for placing this cache out here.
Time to go and watch the footy now, GO CATS!!!!!

With Mrs Kookacrew being a bit scared of slip sliding 4WD driving this was a good time of year to pop in and do this cache, Mr Kookacrew would probably have preferred winter, but on the day he wasn't aware there could be an option as Mrs Kooka was navigating.
Therefore.....after a nice drive in on a up the hill, down the hill a few times we found ourselves at a secluded little picnic area well tucked in off the road. How good is it to find something that's not full of rubbish or graffiti.
We went for a wander and found a nice sized cache, always happy to have a nice big one.
Thanks dazzpete for the cache and sharing a piece of your history. TNLNSL

At the time I was thinking where the heck is nanton34 taking us as the Mazda 3 went off road to a picnic site. We were hoping for flowing water at GZ but the army container made up for it. Found after circling the site with the phones wavering. Turned out to be a memorable detour despite my grumbles at the time. tftc
 
06-Feb-16
Eighthknox was not keen on the road leading into this spot we were in his mazda 3 and in hindsight it probably was not the smartest idea considering we had about 900km to drive today. But with a bit of careful driving we were soon at the park. The area was nice and a great size cache made this one worthwhile TFTC

We were on our family camping trip. Had been to Colac, then along The Great Ocean Road, seen the 12 Apostles, they are just amazing. Then we came back towards Mount Gambier which is our home town. We were camping not far down the road. GeoDad, Geoboys went off to drop the yabbie nets in & so Geomum & geodaughter went of to find this cache. Was a little warm outside today. This little area is a nice camping spot. Thanks for bringing us here. We love caching, it brings us to so many amazing places & hiding spots. Had us going around in circles with all the trees but had cache in hand in no time. Dropped off "GC&P Club December 2009 - Micro Snowmen" Travel Bug. TFTC Smile

Thanks dazzpete.

Found this on our way through to Mt.Gambier, nice to get off the main road and see the country side, left 2 dreamworks cards, took nothing TFTC
 
30-Mar-14
Was in Casterton to pick up my Dad so decided an alternative route to Mt Gambier was required. I had tried this before without a GPS, epic fail. So today I made a quick find on a beautiful sunny day.
Cache is in good condition Smile
Thanks
 
22-Feb-14
After a drive along some very narrow dusty tracks in the forester we finally made it. Approaching form the opposite side would have been much easier. Nice day out in the countryside around Casterton though. TFTC.

One of those rare finds that just blow you away. Off the highway, nice little picnic area.
The bird life is prolific and you cannot hear the highway. Amazing.
