Another cache done with Trodectus around Burra. Parked nearby and after a short search had CIH. TFTC
Found with Coybear2000 while visiting Burra. We drove passed this one a few times but there was always a car parked nearby. Finally the coast was clear and we went for the find. Soon had CIH, log signed and all replaced and we were back in our car and continuing on our way. TFTC.
We spent a lovely day driving around Burra with a heritage key visiting all the historical sites around town. This was a quick find but nice a quiet! Thanks for the cache!
On our travel stopped to grab a few caches thanks for this nice quick find at a very interesting spot
TFTC. A nice start to our catch up walk on this section of the Heysen Trail
Found out in the open, log scattered near by. Have put away wear no one can see.
Arrived at the location fearing the demise of this cache. Very recent tree pruning evident. However all was good and cache OK
Found while on a wander of Burra, first one and very exposed.

Worked my way through all the possible GZ’s
Sandyofthesea and I took off from Perth at the start of April to travel more of Australia using geocaching as a guide to see the sights. How good is this country!!
The Crapper Crew, I found Police Lock Down today. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.

We are finally able to travel interstate without heaps of loops to jump through. We thought we would take it easy and have a look around South Australia and grab a few more LGA's while we were here.
We were spending the night in Burra and after a drink at the pub we walked up to this one. A quick find
This was find number 9 for the day.

A quick cache after exploring the lock up with the passport key. I wish all other key locations came with a quick cache nearby. TFTC!
Here on an afternoon without the Burra passport key so we'll have to explore the stables another day, but we did find the cache. It could have been retrieved from the roadside, but our device wanted us in with the thistles.

TFTC The Crapper Crew,
Nice easy find made a little more treacherous by the rampant stinging nettles! Cachers beware!! Took a sticker, left a spinning top. TFTC!
Beautiful underneath all the trees and a nice easy find thank you very much for that don’t have to worry about Muggles
quick find. slowly clearing out burra. found a mint tin with no lid, replaced the cache.
found with Mogni. Headed out in the general direction of clare and planned to clean out clare before the June Long Weekend End Event in 2022. As usual there was ALOT of caches found before then and only a couple of caches where found in clare before staying in Farrel Flat for the night. The next day was cleaning out Burra and slowly making our way home. Damn doing multi's takes so long, since the final has a habit of not being in the direction you are planning to go next. All caches that where found that were brittle or damaged were replaced and logs found wet where replaced, except for nano's. Nano's are evil spawn and you can do your own maintanence on them.

It was school holidays and I needed a break from school and chores and needed to just have some fun. I talked sir_spectre into joining me for a weekend away caching near Clare and Burra. We avoided the big towns and focused on the caches we normally drive past on the way to somewhere else. Any caches that needed some attention got it.
Thanks to The Crapper Crew from mogni

After a relaxing weekend in Burra Burra it was time to head home, the long way of course .

Taking a break. As a member of TeamOZCAT logged in this cache, I am now logging as an individual predominatley to avoid any mistaken revisitation. I thank CO/s for cache placement.
Please excuse belated generic log. We (and LAPUN) began our objective to drive from home, (being border towns Albury/Wodonga NSW/Vic on the Mighty Murray river) to Eucla WA and return.
Departed on the 17th April and returned Anzac day 25th.A good 8 days camping at a different place each night. Caching was not one of our objectives but managed an average of 2 per day giving a total of 16 hides.
All hides were in good to fair condition and none required maintenance. Thanks to CO for placement of cache.

Couldn’t find anything after a bit of a hunt. We did spook a wild rabbit though.
Staying at Burra for 2 nights. Having a look around & geocaching at the same time. Interesting history & town beautifully maintained. Tftc
Found it TFTC. Soooo many nooks and hiding holes, but a quick find. Cache in good condition
Found during our trip to Burra for a few days, staying out in the campground at Redbanks. Thanks for the cache The Crapper Crew!
A quick find here once I was at GZ. Cache is all good
Today I headed from Adelaide up north caching my way along from cache to cache and found myself in Peterborough for the evening. Stopped at Clare and Burra along the way as well as doing a few lab caches. Roughly 80 finds for the day.

Will need to come back another day and have a proper look. Beautiful trees nearby too. TFTC
So I sent Tweety2 out looking while I caught up on some logs. Eventually I followed to help her out. This was a case of can’t see for looking for Tweety2 as I soon had my hands on it. TFTC!
