Butlers Revenge Marion Bay, South Australia, Australia
By Liz and Bruce on 28-Jan-02. Waypoint GC360A

The property owners have requested that this cache be removed from their property.
They have the final container so please don't attempt this cache.

5am...who starts caching at 5am[?] That's get home from caching time!
Apparently CPwanderer starts at 5am and so we left my house at that time, locus cache'd all day and returned at about 12.30am the following morning after a tally of 47 smileys
Picked up Laighside Legends and then met up with firesafe and Doctor Owl and family at Warooka for a laugh filled, scenic adventure in the bottom of YP and Innes National Park.
Having never been this far down YP before, I was constantly amazed by the gorgeous scenery and views on a warm day filled with blue skies and even bluer water [^]

While logging this find, I now see that it has been archived. Such a shame that other geocachers won't see this area as this was a gorgeous spot with great scenery below: a pretty little bay and shags on the rocks.

TNLN. SL. TFTC Liz and Bruce

Quickly located!! The cache container was falling apart so we grabbed a replacement from Locus Cache's vehicle .... all is well again.

A trail of cachers followed the cliff top to the cache. Great views to be had and not as hard to reach as that other cache down the track...

Nice day and nice view. Thank you

found it

Nice nature walk with Tk2, although there were a couple of fishermen that I am sure were wondering what the hell we were doing. tftc

Found in great company, walk was further than I had expected but the views were worth it,tftc

forgot to put my name in the field log book :/

Found it ! Been fishing here for years every Easter. Now I know why people come peering over the cliff

Found with Shrek4. Nice track though the bush, view to view.

What a lovely view. Well worth the walk. Not sure the lizard I almost stepped on appreciated being disturbed.

Thanks for the views! Oh and the cache.

Team Shrek4

Great walk, great views
TFTC

Looked like a challenge we had to accept.
A Liz and Bruce multi to add to our New Year collection.
Persistence paid off. After a slight detour to the most awesome beach, stage two took us to more awesome views! Umm, yep, it's awesome - beautiful blue sea and sky, and islands in the distance, pelicans on the rocks. Thanks L&B and other maintainers

Day three of roadtrip on YP with geosons Timotatus (L driving) and Sebastbat to bring in the New Year!
Thanks for the fun and entertainment cache hiders. Happy New Year

Found with Mattycat and Timotatus

Found It!
It was late in the day. The wind was really blowing hard. I was tired. That little walk seemed to take forever...
GZ has a nice view though!
TFTC

Cool day, great views

A very out of the way place which we arrived at just after dark so camped the night. A nice morning walk to the first coords then a walk down to the beach for a look. Lots of different types of sponges washed up and an orange 8 armed starfish. Well, it was except that something bigger and hungry has nibbled almost 4 of them away. Interesting to see the inner workings of the starfish arms, though, but it was sad as well. Left only footprints but did some CITO, aware of the types of rubbish that kill turtles and dolphins. Headed off to get the final cache which is dry and in good nick. Rescued Rolly TB, LN. TFTC

Nice view. Spot on with the first tag and then final spot has anice view. Not sure the container will last long, but thanks to the last for fixing it. Took nothing but left BUG (Rolly the dog)

This cache is now ready to go. Our thanks to Ian and Penny for helping us out.

4046th total find at around 12:18

Maintenance completed today. The cache at WP1 has suffered quite badly from UV degradation, and we didn't spot the spice container mentioned by pprass. (It may be there but we didn't spot it.)

WP1 is now a metal tag wired securely (but not tightly) to a branch of the bush at the appropriate location.

At GZ we discovered that the cache is in good condition and the log book has plenty of space left. We added a couple of things to the collection of swaps.

Took: Nothing
Left: Car, micro container & dolphin keyring
Thanks Liz and Bruce for the cache

We will organize some replacements for wp 1 and the final cache in the next few weeks.

Found an arrangement of white stones & a broken plastic container but no coords to next stage. Sad really as we were introducing a friend to the game....

Found an old broken plastic container which could be the original container and the stones in place looked like we found the spot, but could find no cache. So we enjoyed the view and had to move on. Will watch to see if anyone else can find it. Thanks for the view!

Found at 2.25pm GAFF2. No trouble in finding the first container and a great view from there, but oh is it in a mess. Also the co-ords are very hard to read. So we replaced the container with a spice container that we carry in the back of the Patrol and retraced the co-ords hoping we got them right (they were!)
We were not sure if we had to go down to the beach for the final, but after reading a log, that was soon sorted out. As we walked along the cliff top we disturbed dozens of locusts and we thought - this is what it's going to be like at the Nullabour!
Thanks Liz and Bruce.

finally found it after first starting to walk there. the girls finally decided it was too far and i happily agreed.

Well we found the first part, but going by all the signs I don't think many are welcome in these parts anymore. We have serious doubts the cache will last through winter as the container has all but disintegrated. Once we saw where the second set of coordinates would take us (looks like more private property) we decided not to bother.

TNLN SL (well the first part anyway)

TFTH

We found both of the caches, but the first one is getting a bit weather worn and cracked. We dropped off Baa Geocoin, so watchout for that. ALSO WATCH OUT FOR THE SNAKES!!!

Found on a cold windy day and forgot about looking for the second cache.... next time
TFTC

Signed both books one in each container TNLN TFTC

Day 2 of my Yorke Peninsula Cachout and it was the southern part today. A lot of driving and walking with 37 finds and 4 DNF's.

What a great view from the final - a lot of seabird in the area. TFTC.

Easily found both locations with a nice cliff top walk between. Saw a couple of fisherman high on the cliff top dropping their lines about 20m into the sea. It appeared that they were catching something whilst perched on their ledge TNLN TFTC. Bommy

A pleasant stroll between the 2 points. From some of the logs we thought they must be miles apart but it was really a short stroll.

TFTC
\

We were surprised that some cachers only find the first cache as the walk to the second is eqaully impressive. Two different outlooks and a worthwhile half an hour spent.
Loving this coastline.
Thanks Liz and Bruce.

A couple of great way points.
The first gave a view down that long beach, off the cliffs.
The second's cliff had interesting rock ledges in the water with rock pillars rising up. The center one had a breeding colony of Cormorants - never seen that before.
Thanks for the walks, Robmc.

Beautiful.... such contrasts. There had been horses(?) on the beach to the west and lots of foot prints but no one was visable at 3pm. Great cache, cheers Liz and Bruce!

A nice quick easy find. Just what I needed as I had to be back in Moonta in a couple of hours.

More great views from this spectacular coastline. Not sure about crossing the fencline to get to the final location.

Thanks Liz and Bruce.

Found during SYP blitz. Took two NZ Coins left croc plug & smiley badge TFTC

Found the 1st one but not the 2nd one, given that it was 7pm and completely dark looking wasn't easy.

Will have to come back another time for this one.

Has anybody spotted the small sign on the fence...

Obviously someone doesn't like trail bike riders...me neither...

Quick easy find with 'Shane4' on our Innes NP raid, The beach is wicked!!
TFTC Liz and Bruce

Quick easy find with 'The Hunta' on our Innes NP raid, awsome beach!!!
TFTC Liz and Bruce

Cheers and Happy Hunting Shane4

Glad we weren't on a wild goose chase! Great walks & cloud colours at sunset. T $100 keyring L kangaroo & hippo TFTC Liz & Bruce

Found on the Swampy + Adrian Mc Caching YP and beyond Tour 2009.

Definately not a nightime cache.

TFTC

2009-04-30 10:40
Found the first cache and enjoyed the walk to the second and back. Glad we didn't do this cache last night! Thanks for showing me this great area.

Found on The 2009 Adrian Mc & Swampy Caching Adelaide And Beyond Tour.
Find # 311

Found the first part really easy then we moved onto the second part and it was worth the walk as the view was amazing. We had our geo family in toe and they really enjoyed helping find this one. took the doll and left the $100 key ring. Cheers.

found easily will have to do part 2 later
TFTC

found it - signed it, off to number 2

Found with Izzy while camping at Butlers Beach. Came from Butlers beach side, so had a bit of a walk, but found it no probs. First part was not lying on ground pretty much in the open, so hid it a bit better. TFTC

Passing through a TB

No snakes seen here today which I am glad
Why is it I took the harder trail to first waypoint
Thanks Liz & Bruce

And with the help of a uhf radio we found the second point. A rare Liz and Bruce multi. The interesting thing was that even Liz and Bruce couldn't find the final gz without being given the coordinates. cmon, it's only been 6 years and 4600 odd caches since they placed it...

We found the first point easily enough. Signed the log, and grabbed the final co-ords with photographic evidence

A nice view from here, with a bit of a breeze blowing

Found it on our C3 (Copper Coast Cachers) trip down the peninsula and back up again.
With Goingtheredoingthat and Psalm118:25 and some new cachers.

Found both of these caches, it helps to have a team to help search.

T: crane2 pathtag
L: 2 bouncy balls and Killer Whale T/B as he liked this location

Found with C3 (Copper Coast Cachers) on our "Kick the Foot" geocaching day.

Took nothing
Left noisy kid

After driving off, we had 2nd thoughts and returned as we felt guilty about the swap we made. We took the noisy kid and left something more equitable.

Found this cache with C3(copper Coast Cachers) while attempting to get to as many caches as possible up and down the leg. We left home at 4:45am and got home about 10:45pm! Myself, goingtheredoingthat and Delta Echo were the 'oldies' in the group, plus some 'newbies' - Slasher, Dragon, Bula and Jimbo.

This is my second attempt at the cache - happy to report that i found it!! (well it does help GREATLY when you have 9 other people in your caching team searching at the same time!!!)

Lovely location

Being new to the sport of geocaching, mum wanted to follow the GPS arrow straight through all the bushes on the way to Waypoint 2, but I convinced her to go back to the path , which was a good decision. Nice walk with a rewarding view at the end. Took red dice and left pathtag. Find #223.

Cant claim the first half but found the one that counted..!! Another good one for the legs.!! TFTC

Sixteenth find of the day a Bit of walking involved but not to far and the views are worth it. I found the first cache but Margieh found the second after tripping and nearly falling on top of the cache. Replace the container on the second location so sound last for years.

It would be much appreciated if the next geocacher heading out to do this cache would take along a medium sized container to replace the one that is damaged. Thankyou.

Found the cache at 3.45pm. I enjoyed walk along to two caches. One of the container need new badly also some rusty so I clean up (sorry I didnt have spare container with me) SL. Thanks Liz and Bruce for organising the cache and hunt.

Didnt find it - we paid the $6 fee to get into Bulters park. Drove for about 1 hr on very rocky road - only to end up at a locked gate - which the geocache was on the other side - still a few km up road. We didnt have time to find alternate road.

We later found out that you do not need to pay the $6 entry fee. Geocache is up another dirt road - closer to Marion Bay.

We will back some other time to try and find it!!

[This entry was edited by Psalm 118:24 on Monday, April 21, 2008 at 5:51:52 AM.]

The stress of the kids driving meant we missed that you could drive a lot closer to the first waypoint than we did, so we did more walking than we had to. Cheers. MODU.

We certainly enjoyed the views from both spots. Took Dolphin Keyring, Left 40's Badge.

Rocky Glen Grommets found the first cache quickly and opted to drive back a short distance cos the weather was very extreme - 40 degrees - glad we did cos it was a bit of a hike to get the second cache - great views though - a couple of boats anchored at sea and of course the one on the beach! Found by Grom Mum - left lizard and took toothbrush.

Our first multi.
Nice spot.
Took clip torch
Left Die

Nice walk on a very breezy day! Sleepy lizard guarding the first cache. No snakes fortunately!

TNL keyring

A great little multi.
Pity about the boat that one wont be going back in the water.

Good leg stretch on the way home from Pondalowie Camp!

Eventful multicache included chainsaws, planes and lizards. Doubled with Jas&Tarsh.

A nice multi-cache. It was just one of those days where everywhere you went was crowded. Still managed to find a gap in the crowds and make the find.
Doubled up with Stralker which was fun.
Didn't see any snakes, but a sleepy lizard was guarding the cache and the red baron was flying over above!

Great cache with a good views and interesting demo of what the waves can do. Fast food place at Marion Bay has photo of boat soon after it was beached, not much left now..

Just got home from Butlers.
Found the 1st cache in June 03 I think from memory.
Only just got back to the second today!
Long time between drinks.
TNLN.
Had a mate with me, started out thinking it was boring then couldn't get him away from reading the log!!
Thanks guy's.

spent so much time thinking about what the "revenge" bit was about that I completely forgot what I had just put in the cache. Never did remember . Anyway- I wrote down that I took the green man before I forgot that too. TFTC

#13 of many (so many I've lost count) on 3 day jaunt on Yorke Peninsula. TNLN. TFTC

Not sure what the revenge is but TFTC

Yarrr! Nice sand dunes!

TFTC.

Good one, enjoyed finding this cache. With Gilligan, the skipper too, a millionaire and his wife, the movie star, the professor and maryanne...... TFTC T ghost L something but can't remember!!

Found on wet and windy day with a posse of virgin cachers. From here they wanted more. Cheers!

Found the 1st point without a problem. We started to wonder where we were headed as we traipsed across the cliff top, but it made sense when we got there. Would like to know the story behind the wreck below.
Cache is very damp and smelly and starting to go mouldy. Unfortunately, we didn’t have anything with us to clean it up (We should have read some of the logs before we went searching).

Found during our stay at butlers beach, soph found both parts much 2 DR.E annoydness. There was a fishing boat grounded on the beach nearby, both the engines missing. T: Sticker and Christmas Tree L: weird finger puppet and flag

Bumped into some year nine school kids who had been hiking for 17km along to beach towards Butlers caravan park. It was blowing about 30knots on top of the cliff and they planned to stay at the car park for the night with just tarps and sleeping bags. After locating GZ, and viewing the shipwreck below, we assisted to find them somewhere a bit more sheltered. Unfortunately we left our spare big cache containers in our other car and only had micro's with us, so we were unable to replace cache. Would the next person please be able to replace the cache container. The contents are dry but still mouldy.
Cheers and thanks for the beautiful views.

Found 1st part no trouble, T Tim the Turtle TB. Proceeded to part 2. what a view, spectacular. Papa Scrub & Scrub Boy climbed down onto the beach to check out a modern day shipwreck (30ft aluminium charter boat from QLD we think, awash on the shore) The inside of cache is a bit mouldy from being wet. Lid is cracked

[This entry was edited by scrubrunner on Sunday, October 29, 2006 at 2:42:43 AM.]

I put Tim the Turtle in the first part of this cache.
Was a bit rushed and did not get to complete the journey.
Tim Wanted to start a fresh adventure so if you can help him travel to the southern reaches of this fine country please drop in and take him with you.

The second of Liz and Bruce’s caches in the area that we visited today, and this one provided, yet again, some beautiful views at both locations of this small multi. At point 1, we were fearful that the waypoint had been flattened by something that had crashed through the undergrowth that had enormous wheels and very large ground clearance. The tracks of this beast went right through my initial GZ. As the minutes in location ticked on, the GPSr homed in a little more accurately and the waypoint was found safe and undamaged. The walk along the cliff top to the final GZ was easy and we found the cache after a couple of minute’s search. Great views of the bay at GZ. Thanks again to Liz and Bruce for a great cache. TNLN.

first find for the week at yorkes - did it early to escape the heat , a pleasant walk early in the morning -left ghost took t-rex

Spent some time searching for a better way in to GZ....no such luck, so had to walk instead in this heat.

Nice area, nice cahe, thanks.
Agsmky

2nd L&B cache for the day, another nice beach location. We were berated for driving along the private road instead of the road about 200m away! Nevermind!! Relocated the geomobile to a more public place like we were told!! And found the 2nd part after a pleasant walk.
Left a patch Took the golfball
Thanks

First one way, then the next. No snakes today, but did come across a beautiful Sleepy Lizard. Took St Francis Winery keyring, left a fridge magnet. Cheers.

Headed to this after spending the night bush camping at Butler's Beach (Really roughed it in TRAK05 last night with a roast dinner, bread & butter pudding and a bottle of red before we settled down to watch a DVD!)
Spent a bit of time looking for the first one, then the second one was an easy find.
Took Bart Simpson finger puppet and left Christmas deco.
Thanks for another caravan friendly cache Liz & Bruce!

First part quickly spotted by me, then after a hike through lots of grass seeds (long boots recommended this time of year) Fab got the 2nd part. Beautiful views over this little bay, a very nice spot. Unluckily the cache lid has cracked so contents were quite damp after the recent rain, tried to replace it in a position to keep the rain out a bit, next visitor might like to bring a replacement. TNLNSL, cheers Liz & Bruce.

nice bit of walking here. found both without any trouble.
the lid of the cache had a couple of cracks in it and was quite wet. we didn't have a suitable container with us so the best we could do was to place a large flat stone on top of the container to keep the water off.
this shouldn't make it any harder to find as the coordinates were spot on.
thanks Liz and Bruce.

took : little knife
left : dinosaur and earplugs

[found our first multi cache!]
Between meehan you how's this butlers revenge?
[Tried to get into butlers straight after this but it is closed until August 18, oh well maybe next time.
took sherifs badge and left oscar the grouch signed log
cheers]

Both locations found quickly and thanks to the cold weather we had absolutely no worries about snakes. This cache also had a small amount of water in it which we emptied out. Took the allen key which was starting to corrode badly and left a plastic sheriff's badge. Cheers L & B.

We camped at Butlers Beach and walked to this one. It was a good day for it.
Took tape and left golfball.

Found both quite easily. My first multi-cache success. Bee is getting into this game as well - I've almost been delegated the back seat.

Took paper cutter and left most of the Simpsons Skating.

Thanks Liz and Bruce

XanBrother & BeeFriend

Found both points of this fairly easily. Ryan (6) can claim the find on both points and he has declared himself 'good at caching'.

[insert swaps note] (soon)

Great views - took photos and will endeavour to actually upload them. The colour of the water around this peninsula is nothing short of stunnning.

Discovered I still had log from previous cache, so now its' back to revisit Clifftop to return it!

Thanks!

Both views from this multi were fantastic. The sea was crashing against the cliffs creating a cool sea mist. The sun shone on KI too, making this a breathtaking sight.
took puzzle, left Data cartridge.

Thanks again Lizzzzy and Broos [^]
clear skies, TeamAstro.
