This cache is a real issue at the moment. Very, very sadly the land adjacent to the park has been sold and they are erecting a supermarket!! In doing so they have cut down many trees that are about 300 years old. Many people were cutting through this area to access the cache and it is NOT safe to do so at present.
I need to leave it off line for another few weeks, at least until these trees are gone. (It breaks your heart to see them.) I may alter the position of this cache.
 
06-Jan-14
I have had to have an op. At the point before the op, the grass still had yet to be mown. Currently I'm still recovering and driving is an issue, I hope to get to this in the next 3 weeks.
 
19-Oct-13
21/10/13 After a visit today to replace container, I have decided to leave it off line for a few weeks. The grass is extremely LONG and I know the council cuts it. With the warm weather and snakes...I will wait until it is a safe spot before I replace and enable. Councils are cutting everywhere at the moment, so it shouldn't be too long before they get to this.

Found after the Pioneers Rest cache and walked over the road. It seems I may have been behind another cacher but didn't see anyone around.
Found quickly and logged as there was some muggle in a truck nearby.
Thanks for the cache The Silver Snitch
 
Drove right in till we were less than 100m from GZ. It was an easy find from there. TFTC
 
25-Sep-13
Mohuja drove right up to GZ and after a quick hello to Mumma duck and her babies on the lake we soon had the cache in hand.
No geocoin to be seen unfortunately - TNLNSL

The two M's needed to go shopping... so why not pick up some caches on the way... well sort of on the way.

A bit wet here today and would have been a better caching experience if Mr M hadn't trodden in that...

TFTC Silver Snitch.

Easy find
 
24-May-13
Unfortunately this cache has been muggled. Cache was sitting out in the open on the track, only the log was found inside. It wasn't until I was signing the log that I realised that some sorry excuse for a human had actually urinated inside the cache.(Lucky I had some hand wash in the car). I have hidden the cache again but not sure if it is the original location. (its still easy to find). Would recommend a new container. Feel free to email me The Silver Snitch if you have problems finding the cache.

Been meaning to do this one for a while as thecoxcrew junior #1 and thecoxcrew senior visit a place nearby on a weekly basis. This is a nice, pleasant little spot and a wonderful place to put a cache, especially one with a purpose such as this. Hope it survives long into the future. TNLNSL TFTC

#1404 Found while visiting from Melbourne and out caching with our grandson. Cache container was full of water - emptied it out but of course contents still quite damp. The inevitability of life can be hard to deal with but Dignity is just so important. Thanks The Silver Snitch.
 
18-Feb-13
I had to bypass this one at the start of my caching because the council was in the area doing what they do, so came back to it in the late afternoon and the coast was clear.

I nice spot for a cache and a nice tribute to Joan. TFTC

September is birthdays and wedding anniversaries month in our family - so many new beginnings - so it was apt that we find this one before the end of the month - and about the date of my mother's death many years ago. A lovely peaceful place to reflect on life. TFTC

03-Jan-12
A lovely moonlit walk for me on my way home after tea at KittyKat's with her, her partner & the grandkids. Frogs croaking, crickets chirping and the scent of nature recovering with a cool evening after 41 degree days. TNLN. SL. Thanks for providing the opportunity for me to locus cache, The Silver Snitch. Here's to continued happy endings for your new beginnings Smile
 
01-Jan-12
Wasn't sure the best way to get to this one, as there are long fences everywhere. I walked in from the south, only to see that there was a much easier way in from the north. Oh well. That's caching. Other than that, an easy find.

Thanks for the cache, The Silver Snitch.
 
12-Dec-11
Nice walk in the evening with the kids. Was an easy find, particularly after reading others comments! Took marbles, left a bracelet.
 
11-Dec-11
This was a pleasant little linear park. The cache was a real easy find. There’s nothing that says ‘natural’ more than rocks in trees Wink. TNLN. Cheers Silver snitch Big Grin.
 
08-Dec-11
An easy find along a nice walkway. One wonders if we will regret removing bushland for housing.
 
04-Dec-11
This was an opportunity to explore this park - it has been a paddock for so many years. Left marbles (for any one seeking theirs!) and TN. TFTC

A nice find on my holiday around Adelaide. Really enjoying my drive around the area. Found fairly easily. SL Left GC TFTC
 
08-Nov-11
We came to look for this one after going to pick up our present from Secret Geo Santa nearby. Little Miss Scarlett, who is nearly 2, walked the whole way there from the car, made the find and then walked the whole way back. When it came to getting this cache, she was rather tired and wanted to rest her small legs in the car. Mr. Lost Wanderer stayed in the car with the juniors while Mrs. Lost Wanderer ventured out alone to get this one. What a great story with a happy ending. Thanks for the cache.
 
06-Nov-11
This cache was nice and easy to find Smile a beautiful spot for an evening stroll! Lots of birdlife out this time of day Smile
I drive past this place at least a few times every week and I never knew this little wetland area even existed!
What a gorgeous place!
Wishing your dear parents all the very best too!

It's one of life's great joys to have healthy family and friends Big GrinBig Grin, so it's good to hear the months of trauma for you (your family and parents), has finally settled down. We're sure all those long drives to the riverland were worth it [|)].

Thanks for your story Silver Snitch, and so pleased that things are working out! Nice little park here, and will get better as it grows in. Can't believe how quickly this development is going up!

Thankyou for sharing the story of all your new beginnings. Just near this cache was a place of new beginnings for us as the nearby church was where the 2 older Knippers were married, and the beginning of our now family of 4.
Thanks so much for this cache and the story behind it
