Found on a weekend trip with the boys.TFTCCheers and Happy Hunting Southern Cross Caching
Found with uni and Freddo on a drive to the Barossa and beyond... Thanks for the hide. Logged with [GCDroid / WheriDroid](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gcdroid.sub).
Walked down the road as the puddles were definitely not looking inviting to drive the car. Quick find and a pleasant walk
Quick find. Track was dry but has many wheel ruts. Today was a JAMS ( JJ52, Allister W, Mogni, Mitchell&hound plus Sir_spectre ) day out. Mitchell&hound is off on a 732 day holiday so she didn't join us. We picked up the travellinbees and GTA5 and they followed us in their own car. Today's targets were a 2001 cache and a cache on this date ( the 19th ) of a " not chosen " size 6 out of 31 days to go and also a high terrain cache using a 6.2 meter in a creek with water following in it and a few pirate project caches. I think we replaced 1/4 of the log sheets to day since there were wet or full plus replaced a few broken containers.
MrsBee and GTA5 had been invited on a JAMS day out north. Have you met GTA5? he is very energetic! Of course we could not say no. We headed off in a roundabout way to find lots of caches. We searched high we searched low, some of us, not Mrs Bee got wet! Trees where climbed and many sneaky, cute creative hides found.
Today was another JAMS (JJ52, allister w, mogni, sir_spectre) day along with Mrs travellinbees and GTA5 with a few targeted caches out north and any others that we happened to be driving past. A fun day out in the sunshine driving on some great tracks on a perfect day for caching.Lucky for us it was dry today and we made it down the track.Thanks for the cache ktmatt.
Quick find while out and about grabbing caches for IGD.

Growing up on the farm, living at the end of a road with clay sections, I have fond memories of dad purposely making the Ute slide home from the bus stop when he picked us up and mum having kittens whenever she lost control of the car driving us to or from the bus stop
Happy childhood memories

After attending a maker magic event in Gawler Mrs Peas headed out to Greenock with Jolly0 and sandelf to clean up some straggler caches in and around the area. It did get a tad slippery in the wet here, thankfully we had 4wd and our trusty driver got us out of the mud without any difficulty. TFTC ktmatt
A day out caching with an old fart or two seeing if we can find a cache or two along the way
A quick find, stamp and return here today

It’s been a week now since the last rain, and this track looks deceptively navigable from what you can see at the intersection, but there was no way that I was going to tempt fate here, and sure enough the track deteriorates rapidly as you venture further in.
A nice walk though.
Thanks ktmatt.

Nearly went past and got stuck in a big fat bog hole. Lucky we saw it and slammed down the brakes
Anyhoo nice hide little bit damp in the container, other than that it was a great, easy, little hide.

Nice little find, couldn’t drive the car to the next one but nice to see some kangaroos
Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.
Our first full day in Nuriootpa and it is freezing but nothing keeps good cachers home. Thanks for the cache, just as well it was in front of the big bog in the road.

On the hunting trail again with SeasonedBird, Liz & Bruce. Blue sky day, so it’s a great day for caching. TFTC ktmatt

I feel like that one took me longer than it should have. There is so many good hiding nooks here. TFTC
Out and about the picturesque Barossa Valley picking up a smilie or two along the way. Took the hire car just this far!
Log signed and replaced as found.

Today I headed out for an afternoon of caching in the Barossa. It was a lovely afternoon and enjoyed seeing all the autumnal leaves on the vines very pretty.
Found a nice variety of caches and still so many to come back for.
Found 29 with one dnf so was pretty happy with my effort .
Was glad it wasn’t wet along this road! TFTC

Found during a caching trip with Team Waldron to target a cluster of caches that neither of us had found in the Daveyston, Greenock and Nuriootpa area. Thanks for the cache ktmatt!
Stopped a bit short of gz so I didn't get the car wet. Soft, soft. Walked the last 100 metres. Thanks ktmatt for the fun.
Day 392 ( Thursday 24th ) of our trip. Caching along the way. In Greenock today. A total of 4 for the day and 6987 the trip. A grand total of 16,956 caches. TFTC
Went out geocaching with Jac-Jam again this morning to find a few more local caches before vistiing the loacal wineries tomorrow. The day wasn't a very nice day to be out for a couple of Banana Benders so we cut the days adventures short.
This was one of 10 we found for the morning. TFTC.

Found it! Right on dusk so not terribly difficult! A great treasure trove of swaps in it!
Very dry today. Drove right to GZ. Thanks for including the uturn space. Cache in good condition
Heading up to the Barossa for the night and a few stops needed to be made on the way. Container lid is broken. Needs some TLC. Thanks

a quick drive by & we soon had the cache in hand. The log book was signed by myself & geo hubby Animal62.
Unfortunately the cache container was broken so we replaced it with a new 1LTT SISTEMA container & the log book was also placed in a new ziplock bag.
Happy Geocaching Everyone!

Spent the weekend in the Barossa and near outlying region chasing Yellow Smiley Faces.
Sadly, we had one DNF but what a fantastic few days in a lovely area.
Many thanks to the CO for bringing us here.
TFTC TNLN except footprints as it wasn't slippery today, tomorrow will be another story.
Sad when we visit these areas and rubbish has been deposited, looks like someone had chucked out stolen goods at some stage, too long ago to be recoverable as it was 20 or so mini video tapes and a hand held VCR.

While camping near Nuriootpa for a couple of days, we decided to do an assortment of caches around the area today with ilook4geo. Some were a bit more difficult to spot than others, but we ended up with a good haul of caches to add to our tally. Each log was initialed and all was put back as found before we moved on. This was one of the caches we found. Thank you to ktmatt for placing this cache. Glad the road was dry today.
Staying near Nuriootpa and doing some caching around the district with goingplaces2. It was a fun day and we found a good number of caches. All logs were signed, then replaced. Job done! Time to get moving. The cache title would be very true. TFTC.
Nice hide. The cache is in great condition, the plastic bag holding the log book may need replacing as it is quite torn/damaged. TFTC.
WOO HOO!!! Found it!!
Another find on a busy afternoon while looking for Skippy’s 50 with MyEagleEyes & MyLittleSpyEye!
We took a detour at the end of the day to find a few nearby.

It wasn't slippery today - in fact, access was straightforward. Accurate coordinates and an obvious hide led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks ktmatt for the cache.
I grew up near here & always hated how many people dumped garbage on this private block. Devastated to return for a visit & find that absolutely nothing has changed. Thanks for the cache though.
Attempting the 50 series with Davidwazza for the day, as well as surrounding caches. A bit of rain around, but otherwise a nice spring day. s. TFTC
Following part of the 50 series with gridge98, we targeted some surrounding caches. A few scattered showers around, and a little nippy, but otherwise a nice spring day.
This road wasn’t as nearly as bad as some of the other roads in the 50 series. One massive rut that we managed to get through without any issues with the Jeep. Quick find once at GZ, cheers.

It wasn't wet today so no slipping. However I did make the finding of the cache look hard. TFTC
Found it. Thanks! Took a little bit of looking but great to find this one in its good hiding spot
It was a very dry and dusty road this evening as the sun was setting...
The cache was quickly located...

Staying at Kapunda for the weekend. Thought we would drive some country roads even though the weather is HOT. TFTC.
It wasn't SWW today with a 35oC temp day forecast up here. Dry and sunny conditions although there was still water in a mud puddle from recent rain storms about 4 days earlier. A nice sized container was located and it's log book signed at 10:34 on Tue 28/11/17. Cache and contents are all good and dry [^] TFTC ktmatt
We could see the significance of the cache name and glad it wasn't a wet day. Quick find by CacheClosed1847. Nice container. TFTC #251.
Extremely quick find with CachingTheJoint. Liked the location of the cache. TFTC. #273
