Logs
TFTC great view and lovley sunset! 
good climb! Nearly got bitten by the snake
good climb! Nearly got bitten by the snakeMuggle partner had work at Warradale, so I headed out for about 3 hours caching...except the work grew and so I had almost 8 hours to locus cache 
Had some great walks, sometimes in weeds almost chest high, but didn't see one slithery thing anywhere.
Managed to find 21 caches and only 2 DNFs and 1 of those was because GSAK didn't filter out disabled caches when I loaded the GPSr last night.
The lid is still broken here and I hadn't read the logs prior to walking in. Even some duct tape would help this cache to ready for winter's rains.
All inside is still good, though, and a quick find.

A nice short bush walk to find a cache that was a little exposed. I tried to rehide a little better. I was surprised to find someone camping in a tent only 50 metres away from GZ.
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache huxiekez.

This was a great workout for us and we were guided by someone with L plates on her gps. We did 600m to cache and amazingly 20m to get back. Thanks for the cache.
First day of casheing. My partner led the way. We found all sorts of things on our 600m walk. We finally found it and saw the car was 20m away!!!!!!!!!!! Der I suppose we will get better with time. Thanks for the cashe. We had a ball.
Found during a foray into the southern suburbs. Thanks for the cache huxiekez!
At least the recent rain has settled the ash in the area , but the lid is broken on this one 
(probably from the weight of the rock on top of the cache and sun exposure).
All dry inside. TNLNSL.
Thanks Huxiekez.

Nice views around here.

How wonderful to find a larger cache that supports swaps. How unfortunate that I didn't have any with me on this run.
Needed to head out for a walk between night shifts and also avoid the storms heading into Adelaide. Grabbed a few of the puzzles and trads around Flinders Uni and O'Halloran Hill Recreation Park.
The rain had stopped but I was managing a sweat up going up and down the hills in the increased humidity. TFTC.

A short walk from no.2 past the original on my quest to find the rest of the non-smileys in OHRP. Thanks huxiekez.
Easy find
Caches lid has been cracked by the rocks, perhaps someone should bring some tape to repair it.

The cache lid is getting old and has become brittle and cracked. The lid will need replacement sometime soon.
I arrived at GZ in time to be able to take in a pretty sunset.
The lid of the cache has succumbed to age and is brittle and cracked.
Thanks for the cache huxiekez.

Number 5, the last for today on our jaunt to O'Haloran Hill Recreation Park to have a good walk and grab a few caches. Parked at the top and walked to all the caches we did today. We were headed back to the car when we decided there was time to take one more diversion. We were very pleased to find this one easily as the co-ords were spot on. TNLN TFTC
Out very early on Xmas eve to clear up these 3 caches that mock and deride me every time I look at my unfound map.
Had a great walk around the park finding them, most of it done before the sun was fully up

The whole team loved this one as we took the geopuppy and the geomutt for a walk after tea. It had been raining all day so we were so pleased that we could grab this before dark! TFTC.
Parked fairly close after what it seemed a tortuous route to get where we had to from #2. Clear skies and good coords - TFTC
Prefer to find bush caches a little closer to a path, but tried to avoid stepping on the new plants as we did what was required to retreive the cache.

Dragged Honeysucker up the hill with much complaining and Max the dog running ahead joyfully smelling this and chasing that whilst peeing on everything!
Nice hide, great hill. Thanx!!

Found it easily after a short walk. Left DISK's GC Certified Addict. The lid is cracked.
Thanks huxiekez for the cache.

Staying on top of these Ridgecrest caches in becoming a challenge in itself. Another one found. Cammo has come adrift, found a piece of it trying to camouflage itself on the ground a short distance away. TFTC huxiekez.
3rd of your caches this morning. Today's exercise is now complete. Thanks huxiekez for the cache.
FTF in a nice clean log.
Quick find by B2.
On logging these few NEW caches of yours huxiekez, I just noticed one thing.
We must have walked over the top of your original Ridgecrest cache, literally, without even knowing about it.
Guess this will teach me to be more careful with using those queries, first time I have selected only 1 week old caches.
Oh well, now we have an excuse to go back for some more exercise sometime.
SL TNLN TFTC Thanks huxiekez.
