Cleaned out a very wet cache and replaced soggy log inside a smaller container in the cache.

Quick find. Container has changed from description. Not 100% watertight. Log water affected but able to sign and reseal glad bag. Great reason for a hike up the hill. Found by my Mini Geo again ! TFTC
Again I was trying far too hard at this cache site, found after 20 minutes of ever decreasing circles and then looking somewhere else! Great views though
All quiet in the park close to sunset. A walker coming from the opposite direction caught me talking to the kangaroos. TFTC.
Nice spot for this one, while walking the Heysen Trail today. Nice spot to stop and take the surroundings in
Headed out for a day in the bush on the Mountain Bikes! A fun day cycling around Mt Crawford and finding a few other caches on the way home with [@Davidwazza](http://coord.info/PR61VZX) ! TFTC!
With [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) available for geocaching once again after past weekends performing work and aerials, it was time for a planned out-of-Adelaide outing. We attended the nearby 5 km parkrun, and later, called past the annual pi approximate event, before heading to Mount Crawford with our mountain bikes. We then proceeded to ride up the Heysen Trail for a small segment (definitely not suitable for bikes as we walked half that), and then around the fire tracks collecting the *K9-GPS* series, *Weird & Cool Facts* series, *Animal Fiction* series, and *Animal Facts* series of geocaches. We then had a pizza dinner at Birdwood with a few final finds around there. A little windy that felt more attuned to a sunny winter day.
This cache was found whilst cycling around in an anti-clockwise direction in Mount Crawford surrounds. The cache container was slightly wet inside, but logbook was ok and dry. Thanks Team Jansons for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

This was the main attack of the day, most of the caches were easily found apart from a few which took some searching. Some of the log books are almost full and will need replacing in the next few months.
Today I headed up north to Nuriootpa for an event put on by snappytomcats, with plans not going to plan in the morning I set off early and decided to do some caching along the way instead of doing it on the way home. But the bike in the car and decided I would go for a ride around mount Crawford then collect a few on the way to Nuriootpa. Overall a total of 42 caches for the day.

Lovely spring day for a ride around Crawford Forest with Pony1966. Replaced container... it's now big and white, under natural camo! TFTC
This morning we headed out on a huge walk to collect caches to get to 6000 caches and that we did. It was a funny old day weather wise pretty cold with plenty of rain showers. We had a fab day and have walked about 20 km my Apple Watch is very impressed. TFTC and series
what better way to celebrate the long weekend than being in Mt Crawford, all the campsites are full but everyone just sitting around their fires, just means the air smells beautiful. TFTC
Another quick find, although cache was full of water. Gave it a little drying out. TFTC
Good job I left the pushbike at home today
I wouldn't have gotten far along this delightful bit of the Heysen Trail [:o)]
The hiking boots were handling the terrain nicely,
and at the top of the hill ...
... a cache was soon found
Bit wet inside though !!
I did sign the logbook

With a couple of days off and a let up in the storms we decided a walk in the forest would stretch the leg muscles, a enjoyable stroll and found after a short searchTFTC Team Jansons

Out with micaparamedic and The Drovers for another days caching in the great area we decided to try our luck at this series after we had completed the nearby Animal Facts run. This little walk turned out to be a bit harder than we thought but are happy to say we located all the hides and added our names as CDM to save room in the log books.
Apologies for the generic log but being out with a fun loving group competing for each find we did not take note of each cache.
Many thanks Team Jansons for placing this cache and bringing us to this area.

Out with Team Crackers and the Drovers today, we had a quite day with just three hours caching as a trip to Adelaide Airport was needed to collect another member of our group for the Yorke Peninsula assault. We had a relaxed and enjoyable day with plenty of laughter and frivolity being shared by all.
Thanks Team Jansons for placing this cache.

to do a section of a nearby power trail, and a few others on the way.
With nice weather, and lots of laughs, a fun day was had.
We signed as CDM, to save on time and log space.

Out with Debandy caching the Mt Crawford forest on a bitterly cold day made all the worse by the biting wind chill how ever once we started hiking the hills in search of the many fantastic cache all was good. Many cache were found with many more still to find on another day, one that's a bit warmer I think.
T hanks for the cache!

Found during an enjoyable circuit in the Mt Crawford area on a cool, drizzly day. Thanks for the cache Team Jansons!
Found with3LG after walking the forest across the main road. After a DNF last visit we were determined to locate. An easy find today. Loved the walk. TFTC
Just over 12 months ago we attempted this one and failed, ever since then we have had 1 cache keep popping up as our only unfound here, it had to be the one right in the centre lol, after we just finished walking through the Animal Fiction series with other cachers we decided today was the day to turn this DNF into a smiley, with our legs already hurting we tackled this hill the most direct way...straight up from the car park, it was all uphill from there...literally, once at the top it evened out and the views were worth the pain in the legs, once at GZ i found the cache in under 15 seconds, lid is cracked and we did not have a spare lid on us. TFTC
The up hill walk warmed me up on a cool day for walking, nice hide a mungs a bush.
My best walking day cache finds to date, 31caches in total within the Mt Crawford Forrest.
Thanks for bringing me here. tftc

With all the Animal Facts, Weird and Cool Facts and K9 Gps caches in the Mt Crawford Forest park, I finally got to a point where I could no longer resist. Thanks for a great day out. TFTC
Back to continue where we left off a few weeks ago. This time with GeoJen from Hunter Valley. A quick find to start things off. TFTC.
Darknstormy and i were heading to Mt Crawford for a nice walk with some good caches and we stopped at a few along the drive to our destination.
The sun was shining and was a bit bitey at times but the wind was cool so it made for a great walking day. Saw lots of Roo's along the way and one bug bunny or perhaps a Hare?
Loved the walk along the Heysen trail too
Thanks for bringing us here and apologies for a generic log

Furrangel and I decided we wanted to go for a hike so we set out a trail it was nice and quite here, no one around just the icy wind.. But the sun game out a bit later to warm us up We are slowing ticking of parts of the Heysen Trail on our bucket list.
We saw plenty of wildlife, lots of birds, kangaroo's and a few lizards... Few big hills that tested our endurance near the end of the walk. Other than that it was great to get out of the house and get the legs moving.
Sorry for the Generic log... after doing so many you can't remember all of them

Headed up to Mt Crawford to walk some of the Heysen Trail grabbing caches on the way there and back. TFTC.
A lovely 10km walk this morning to pick up some animal facts. Lots of mist, lots of roos, and lots of familiar sights along some trails we haven't walked for awhile. Mrs Frozen Feet did the hike in true frozen feet style wearing only sandals... and jumping in muddy puddles.
Another one where the hint didn't seem to make much sense but luckily we found it after not too long, you could spend ages looking for this one on a day like today when the wet vegetation is playing merry hell with your GPSr signal!

Still leisurely touring South Australia after the Mega
Currently camped at Mt Crawford forest we awoke to being blanketed in fog.
So after a late start it was decided Mr Felix would complete the walk and pick up the walking half of this newly formed circuit including the k9 caches that we had wanted to tackle back in April, but ran out of time. With Mrs Felix being chauffeur and dropping him at one end and collecting him at the other
A great winter day, with the fog finally clearing into a sunny afternoon a nice forest walk, saw some huge Kangaroos and also some other cachers out on the trail.

An overcast day with the promise of rain and I decided to hike through Mt Crawford. Yay me. It was a constant drizzle for most of the day but I carried on and actually really enjoyed my hike up here. It's been a long time since my last visit so today was a welcome reminder of how beautiful nature up here on the Heysen trail really is. As I trek back to the geo mobile I am wet, muddy and bleeding. What an awesome day! (Generic log for this part of my journey as there was quite a few caches)

Not sure what happend here. Had a good look around but no cache. Thanks for the rest of the K9 series.
We have been camping at the nearby Rocky Paddock camping ground and spending our days finding the local geocaches before we set sail again for the SA Mega event. Today we decided to take a morning stroll in the hills with our own geo-K9 in tow. We really enjoyed finding this series of geocaches.
Thanks Team Jansons
Thanks Team Jansons

A great day for a walk in this part of Mt Crawford...21deg, sunshine and a slight breeze. Perfect! An easy find to-day. Thanks Team Jansons
I thought that this one might be hard to find. But found it with ease. TFTC.
This one had the geoteens looking everywhere but where the cache was. It's fun to hear the groans when I say here it is! Took a sheet of stickers and left a seal. TFTC Team Jansons!
On top if the mountain!! Felt as if we should have the king of the mountain for climbing so far up - and beating the et al and the dog here! picked up the geocoin to move it along, left a shark. TFTC
