contacted the geocacher who said they had moved it and it was all okay when we went there. it seems someone moved it prior. We are going to archieve this one to rethink, but there was no issue for us to check this cache as we contacted and checked prior to the note from reviewer.
It appears that this cache may have been removed from it established co-ordinates and placed in a new location.
Can the owner please check their cache.

We found it but not sure it was placed correctly. It sitting on the grass, uncovered. I believe on the wrong side of the river.
We have placed it on the opposite side of the river to what the co ordinates suggest about 7 metres out. But clue still works.
We spent 20 minutes looking because our gps system was retared but we ended up finding it it was our first ever geocache we loved the adventure
Found on a sunny Sunday bike ride with Pony1966. Dropped Náš dřevěný brouk TB. TFTC
Not for short people. Put my hand in a dog poo bag to have a feel around as I couldn't see!
Initially realised that we must be on the wrong side of the creek so left it for the return loop back to the car. A pleasant walk entertained by numerous parrots. TFTC.
Day Twenty two of our holiday, BettyBoo3747 and I are still at Semaphore in Adelaide. Deadly treadlies out and onto the car and off North east to the Little Para Trail. (luckily it wasn't called Little Para River because there was no water there today!) We were doing sort of OK until lunchtime when it all fell in a heap, both bikes hit an unseen patch of bindis resulting in 3 out of 4 flat tyres - that put an end to that!
There are quite a few great gum trees along this trail, this one was no exception.
We were a bit nervous as the GPSr map had us in the river (but our feet were still dry!)
Thanks, Robmc.

#11967. Day 22 of our SA holiday. After a couple of days off the bikes we were keen to get back on them so decided to do the LPT Trail as far as we could go. After a bit of a delay this morning because I awoke with a nasty headache we got away to a late start finding the first one at 11.10am. We were going along well, enjoying the ride until it all fell apart at # 18. I had been warning Rob of bindis since I saw some in the car tyres at Moota and today they struck in full force. As we sat and ate lunch at the nice picnic tables at #18 we watched 3 tyres go down. Dammit and blast - there goes the caching day down the gurgler. A long walk for Rob back to #1 and now both bikes are at the local bike shop getting fancy new bindi-proof tyres (hopefully)!
Thanks McKee Clan
Thanks McKee Clan
Ģypsydawg12 and her guide Gypsydawg13 found the cache . What a good place .....even if we are covered in mozzie bites . Well placed. Back were it belongs . Just sent my guide back think iv lost her . Back on the track again.
May need maintenance, not sure what we was the cache but looks like it has been ruined by the storm. Found Northstar76
My second look found this one from only where an echo can come from, a cleaver hide.

No problems with water flow in the river today 
Yesterday's downpour has done wonders for the river system [^]
All that water might have affected the caches,
but I need not have worried as the first cache of the day was eventually found,
high and dry
Though I did search the correct side of the river first up,
missed seeing the blindingly obvious cache,
read the cache notes,
and convinced meself that I was on the wrong side.
Rode the bike around to t'other side,
couldn't find the cache in a very likely looking place,
and headed back to where I started ...
... and could see the cache from the LPT
Cache blindness is a condition that is affecting too many cachers !! [:o]
You can help by making your cache hides that much more difficult to see.
So that those with cache blindness will not miss seeing the bleeding obvious,
and can avoid the inevitable embarrassment at caching events with everone saying,
"I can't believe you couldn't find (insert cache name here)" in front of large gatherings of fellow cachers
TFTC by the way

wilbur beat us to it again! after fiddling around with a red herring on the other side of the river, we checked a photo and realised our error. swapped the awesome scooby toy for a pack of cards. happy Father's Day! TFTC!
Quick walk with Purrfect Di and Pokemon chasing Alex, and our fluffdog chloe.
Couldn't get 'em all. Too many kids at nearby bridge.
But got this little critter hiding nicely in it's hole.

Today we loaded up the bikes and headed off to finally finish this trail, last time we were on this trail there was lots of rubbish when we arrived and not so much when we left as a CITO was performed along parts of it, i must say i am pretty impressed with how clean the trail looks so looks like the council must be keeping the rubbish down to a bare minimum, unless mentioned all caches were OK and no maintenance was needed. TFTC
Out and about with the son in law and the grandsons today.
A great family day hunting out caches.
Lots of variety in the hides today

Finishing what had needed to do a little earlier than expected. We decided to grab a few more caches along the track so picked up this series. A nice walk but the creek at points did not smell the best. No too many issues with the hides. TFTC.
This morning I had cause to visit a certain caravan yard whose particular advertising jingle is infuriating.
After I decided to find a few of the local caches and this was one of them.
I was able to find and sign a few and was impressed that even thought they were a series each container was different. No short cuts there, well done.
I left a TB here as well.

Found it on our second attempt. On the school side of the creek. Took a fairy and left a shopkin.

Was pretty difficult due to the overhead power lines playing mind games with our GPS. Found it though. Took a brachiosaurus, left an Enderman.
Found on our first cycle trip along the Little Para trail. TFTC.

Harder tofind due to high voltage power lines ..playing havoc with gps... used satellite imaging..easierfromtrackside not power lines
A surprisingly quick find. Spotted it straight away on the approach to GZ :cD TFTC!!
I started this series over two years ago, and still have barely only made it half way so this afternoon I decided to knock out another section. The rain managed to hold off and the park largely abandoned so it was good for hunting down caches.
Last one in this journey for me today. I found myself on the wrong side of the river for this one, but fortunately the water wasn't flowing and a relatively stable crossing point existed to hop over to the other bank. Then I spent too much time going in circles before finding the cache in the most logical place... TFTC McKee Clan!

Looking for ages! We finaly found it but we had to cross the river a million times
A nice easy find with Genghicat in an extremely cool power trail.
Was initially only going to grab the one or two caches, but after seeing how they differed from each other and weren't just the typical "sistema container under a rock" caches you normally see in a power trail decided to find a few more.
Will definitely be back for the rest at a later stage.

A nice easy find in an extremely cool power trail. Love the fact that each and every hide has been creatively constructed and is different in feel to the last.

Thanks for a really cool series.

Found it after lots of extra walking - on the wrong side of the river! Geo-hubby make his way across via the piled up trash in the river! Almost missed it.

Thought it was in a place we couldn't get, and as beginners weren't sure about trying.
I walked through a spider web to get this one. I hope that spider didn't end up on me. Great hide. Thanks McKee Clan for the adventure. Left a pencil.
