Logs
Me and my family were walking along this trail and this geocache happened to be in the area, so I went over to find it. It was a very quick find. Unfortunately, the old logbook was dirty and in poor condition, but there was a newer one, which I was able to sign. TFTC.
Thanks to those who have helped me service this cache, it's such a beautiful spot but I have bee unable to get here. I have requested reactivation as cache is in good condition. Hope you can continue to enjoy this place. Thanks.
Found it while out with Ismartis to place a cache, do cache maintenance and a little caching on the way. This one was still on Ismartis' GPSr so was able to find it.
Gral4 asked me to go with her to place a cache and to do some cache maintenance today in Belair National Park and Meadows.
It was a lovely day for caching.
This cache was showing on my GPS but not on the app. so I decided to have a look for it as we were going past. Cache was still there and in good condition, pity it has been archived.

Replaced it after work today with a new container. Surprised the reviewer hasn't put a note on it by now since it has been disabled 4 months. At gz i found the old log sheet ( has been soaked and now unusable ) and put it in the cache with a new log sheet and plastic bag. Parrots where eating the blackberries below the cliff near gz. The cache is good to be reactivated again.
A kind friend has replaced the log and container for me so everyone can enjoy again.
Searched around GZ but didn't find anything, extended the search area & found a clip seal plastic bag then a soggy log book, placed in a place where it should be findable & added a piece of paper with my name on.-----SL-----TFTC.
Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Had just found a cache nearby and saw this one as well not that far away. Reading the cache notes I saw I was also on the easier side of the area to make the find so it was off down the track and to GZ. Quick find of the cache, signed log and replaced. Then back to the car. Well it might be the easier way going down to the cache but coming back up it was a little more strenuous. Finally made it back to the car, puffing a lot but welcomed the exercise. Lunchtime over, now off to work.

I have lived 6 minutes from this cache for 22 years and have never been on this trail. It's a gorgeous spot and I will return to show my wife. Thanks. I entered via Sheoak Road in the NE corner of the park so it was a short 30-minute easy walk to the cache. Happy to put a new log book in there if you like.
tftc, the cache needs a bit of repair, there is not a log book inside to sign, great park to walk in
A quick find after a nice walk in the Park today. Container hasn't fared too well after the recent downpours... Thanks for the find.
Fantastic spot bringing back childhood memories. Water was flowing well after the heavy downpour a few days ago. Geo-boys took the opportunity to put their heads under the waterfall, styling their hair afterwards! TFTC.
Found whilst out on the waterfall hike. Not much water going over the ledge today. TFTC
Found on a winter's afternoon while wandering around in the Belair National Park.

Found on a Trail Run along the Waterfall Hike. No water at all to be seen. I'd be keen to return here when the water levels are higher.
Thanks for the hide.
Thanks for the hide.
Yet another day that I had a few hours to spare and cache. Thought I might go for a stroll through belair National Park and grab a few caches.
Very dry at the waterfall today. Makes for more exploration. Grabbed this cache also. Thanks *Butterfly Girl*

This cache must surely win my personal award for the cache I've most often walked past . I don't know why I've never looked for it but today was the day, even though it was a bit hot.
Coords were spot on and it was a nice easy find. TNLN, TFTC

A quick find in a lovely peaceful area of BNP - signed the log and sat with the geowife and geopup in the shade of the trees on a balmy breezy afternoon enjoying the peacefulness and the Australian bush - thanks for taking us here Butterfly Girl
We started this walk from the Belair Train Station and followed the Lodge Track round to the Upper Waterfall. Easily found the cache at the foot of the tree and covered it up with pieces of bark before we left. TFTC.
Happy Halloween! Hiking with the J of Team J@M and my puppies. Beautiful day for a walk!
This month I've been trying to clean up all the old puzzles I've solved but not found, so today I hit the inner south.
A slight detour after grabbing a nearby puzzle. I was a little surprised there wasn't more water flowing given the very heavy rain during the week, but GZ was lovely regardless. TFTC *Butterfly Girl*!

This was the perfect way to finish our walk to the waterfall.
A beautiful spot.

Loved the tiny waterfalls in the park. Almost got my feet wet going for this one. Liked the hide.

Great walk with the family from the Nursery to these falls. Both lower and upper falls had a bit of water flowing which made for some really pretty scenery.
Thanks *Butterfly Girl* for placing a cache here.

Few sprinkles of rain during our walk with geodog. 2 and a half hours for a small dog and she still wanted more! Cache was found easily and is in great condition. Took geo coin, Left yoyo. Tftc
Free entry to Belair National Park so we made the most by having a great family day hiking up to the 2 waterfalls. The track was long but the views were fantastic.
This location was a fantastic place to have our lunch and o drop off a travel bug.

Last one on the way home. Just starting to drizzle. Thanks for a lovely walk. Very rarely get here yet live so close.
Found it!! First find for today's adventure...Great discovery for Mr 4...TFTC
Great little walking track we saw quite a few kookaburras today along with a few koalas, no water running today but possible with the forecast rain TFTC *Butterfly Girl*
Wow - stunning area here! Loved the walk in and the morning rain certainly freshened things up. Took lots of photos too. This was number 3 of 3 for the day. TNLN. Cheers.
Found at 1147hrs while continuing our walk up the hill. Easy find as there was signs the area had been disturbed. Thanks Butterfly Girl
A quick and easy find in a beautiful area. We really enjoyed the walks around this great Park. TFTC *Butterfly Girl*!
It was fun for ButterflyJen to find a cache set by Butterfly Girl and in a nice safe place away from the waterfall.
Beautiful views, nice walk, no snakes today!
But plenty of excitable koala grunting.

Quick find although why is there half a muesli bar in the cache?
Nice waterfall I never knew about to!

Easy find after some scrounging. Can't workout the "3 by 3" clue though. Go Team Dweeble x
Found this one along a bike ride from Belair train station down to Adelaide. Fun day.

It's totally gone, no sign of it so will place another one. Happy hunting.
Looks like this may have been muggled, I will pop in and check on it soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Spent some time looking, but no luck. Last found in August, is it still there???

Spent about an hour searching the top and the bottom of the falls everywhere but no luck. Looked in obvious spots but no luck.
The falls were flowing well sat as filled out log and listened to the water going over the falls it was nice and relaxing TFTC TNLNSL
Found yesterday and visited again today.
I lost my glasses yesterday and so had to retrace my steps.
They were waiting for me today not far from the cache.
This park is so different when water is around and there is lots of it at present.
Both falls are flowing well, see the photo uploaded.
Thanks for the cache *Butterfly Girl*

Found randomly without a GPS on a jog through the park. Cool. A new one I haven't logged. The third cache I've literally tripped over today. Triple cool. Giddy up! TFTC.
Great walk thru the park from the golf course. What a beautiful spot on a misty morning. Second of four finds in the park today.
Brought 3x TBs for a visit

I went for my early morning mountain bike ride even earlier today as I wanted to get 5 caches in the Belair National Park before it got too hot. Having come down the trail from Sheoak Rd it was only a short ride to this magnificent spot, I would love to come here when there is water flowing (my guess is that it would only flow during a down pour). After admiring the view I had a quick search and found the cache easily. TFTC.
Great spot for a cache - top view and a nice place to rest.
Thanks for the cache, *Butterfly Girl*

Saw a baby koala and mother. Loved the walk and rewarded by a cache at the end. TFTC.

We were nearby for the scattering of a friend's and fellow orienteer's ashes today so decided to grab this one while nearby.
no-one about today at the cliffs but did wonder how long this obvious hide will last but we enjoyed the walk, the views and the myriad of wild flowers.
Thanks.

Great spot to be on a sensational day. Creek babbling and the waterfall cascading over the edge of the rocks and barely a soul in sight to witness it all. Shame! Surely you must have been tempted to find a hide down at the base of the waterfall. TFTC Wandering Willies.
It had been raining and the falls were running nicely. Never realised they were here.
Cheers from the Posspeet Boys.

Found it during a nice stroll.
A quick and easy find to end
the day of caching. Muggles
came right at the end once I'd put
the cache back. Nice waterfall
which i'd visited before I was a
geocacher.
Took Travel Bug.

Came in from the rangers place on Sheoak and was a nice walk to GZ. I took much longer than I should have to locate the cache and my little blue arrow was doing a lovely ballet all over the screen. Very easy find, when it was found - funny about that !! Surprised it hasnt been carted off by some noctural animal by now. Lovely day for a walk in the park, thanks for taking me there...
A nice spot to watch the sunset....is that the time....I better wrap up this hike and find the car. Now how do I get back to where it was parked (and before dark)???? A quick find TFTC
Container replaced. A little smaller this time, but hopefully water tight! Take care when opening as the contents are crammed in there. Please ensure that the cache is covered with some bark etc as it was a little exposed.
Thanks.

Had read the clues beforehand and found it straight away. Thanks for the cache.
this place is always crawling with people. think the koala from yesterday is in the same place. that makes for a great day of geocaching but also does finding the caches.
