Thanks TheKellyGang for placing this cache and for the ongoing maintenance. Find #10655 on 2/11/2024 at 8:04AMA plan was hatched to ride along the Riesling Trail and collect a few caches. A delightful day in the company of Cheezel and Jolly riding along and signing logs. This is a special place, very enjoyable. We also collected some others that were nearby or along the way.

quick and easy find, thanks for the cache overlooking an incredible landscape

Found with richlink as part of our Annual Caravan Geocaching Trip. Day 2 of our assault on The Barossa Trail, and picking up others as they present. Thanks for your cache KellyGang.

Travelling with iluvtrekking from our home state WA. Spending a few days in Nuriootpa to cache the surrounds. After completing a second section of the Barossa series we headed to Roseworthy and surrounds to grab some finds. Thanks for the hide Thekellygang

Thanks for the quick cache!

Checked and replaced

Found it! First find of the day, out early to beat the heat. TFTC!

Decided to do some caching from Tarlee to Gawler which included a couple of adventure labs. TFTCQuick find.

Continuing my South Australian adventure. Today, I headed north with a particular cache in mind. I was headed back to my accommodation and stopped off to find a few caches along the way. Here, a quick find was made. With my name added to the log and everything returned as found, I continued on my way. TFTC

I remember that little tree. Tftc

Easy find, as cache was exposed. Cache container is a very different size to what is listed, should be chanced to medium size. Sorry to hear of your loss, unfortunately the cross is no longer present either

I can see what was once here but now gone. I can see what was its replacement and now gone. Saw the square hole where the cross would have been. Found the cache quickly with naughtybunny as there weren't too many hiding spots. TNLN. Cheers.

A quick stop on my way to Burra for a short holiday with Chookster. Unfortunately pretty much nothing stands here currently, the tree is gone, the cross is also gone.TFTC The KellyGang

Magnificient crop. Found the cache thank you.

Small detour out this way to grab a couple caches this afternoon. A quick find and all good here.

It's Christmas holiday, I and J plus the little one visited Tarlee, and found some caches on the way.
This the first one I tried today. Found the cache nice and easy.
Signed the log book, and placed the container back.
Thanks for the cache, TheKellyGang.

A nice easy find

Found it!

Well that’s a sad story! I’m driving south, and further north of here more trees are being mulched to make way for overtaking lanes I believe.

Apart from the obvious cache at GZ, there was also a mint tin, which I have removed to avoid confusion.

Thanks for this pitstop Kelly Gang.

Nice quick find. TFTC

Foind it thanks. TFTC.

Revisited one of my fave sentimental caches with a newb. There are ants EVERYWHERE and they bite. Seemed to just erupt out of every hole in the ground. The cache was very damp so added a new bag and another logbook and dried container and replaced amongst the army of biters. Perhaps next time I will visit on a cold day. TYFTC again!

Beware the killer ants!
They bite!

Cheers

Found. Couldn't log as book was wet

Great hide

Thanks TheKellyGang for the cache

It was time to get on the move again with ilook4geo, so we just did a random selection of caches along the route we wanted to take. The program didn't quite happen as when we arrived at some of them it was raining too hard to get out of the car - so we just kept on going. Thanks go to TheKellyGang for adding to the caches we found today.

It was very variable weather today, but mostly wet. On the road with goingplaces2 but found some caches in a few periods between the rainy times. Thanks to each CO for the caches we found. It was a day when we climbed to the peak of August's mountain. to gain two souvenirs.

After a big walk yesterday (27kms), today we decided to go for a bit of a drive around rather than a walk!

Keep smiling

Pass this cache quite often and today had the time to stop. TNLNSL TFTC

Lots of hay paddocks to enjoy but no Xmas trees TFTC

Had the day driving between Clare and Littlehampton. Mixed day of finding a few oldies, picking up some new LGA’s and finishing on the Heyson Trail with SFE caches. Overall, a successful and fun day!!

One lone tree and a cache!!

Day 5 of this years Christmas holiday trip. On our way to Adelaide (from Canberra) collecting answers to several of the windmill cache multi's. Today we are travelling from Clare to Adelaide. A quick find at a very lonely tree, TFTC TheKellyGang.

Moving towards Balaklava but opted to stay overnight in Hamley Bridge.Dropped off the house then headed out to find a few nearby caches.

It was really a case of what was the easiest way to approach this cache! Quick find - thanks.

After landing in Adelaide mid afternoon we are on our way to Burra for the night - liked the story behind this cache. Thanks TheKellyGang for placing this cache here.

Here we found two caches one was a sistema and the other a bison in a fake rock. The fake rock had engravings on it TK2 maybe very random. Anyway we signed both and continued on our merry to Burra for our camping weekend. TFTC

Quick easy find with Beary Organised on way to Clare. No sign of a Cross!! TFTC LNSL picked up TB.

I am heading to Jordan and Qatar as part of a university trip in a few weeks, and I decided that as I am approaching 500 caches (not really but after today, I am), it would be a nice idea to get my 500th cache in either Jordan or Qatar. I informed Doctor Owl of this vague plan last week when we caught up to do maintenance last week, and she concluded that I absolutely must fulfil this plan. The problem was that by the end of our maintenance run (and caching along the way) last week, I was on 397 caches. 102 caches of the 499 needed to ensure I could get my 500th while overseas. Therefore, Doctor Owl decided that in order to get my numbers up some powertrials were needed. So we headed up north with SA Sewer Rats, collecting caches that some or all (mainly me though) hadn't done. I ended up getting 78 caches and having a great day.
I dodged traffic to cross the road for an easy find. TFTC.

Apologies for the late log ... life interrupted my logging. I hate it when that happens!

Mrs Gizmo escaped for a two day caching trip to Port Augusta with Dr Owl and CPwanderer.

Today we were caching our way home in the rain. Another rest stop for Owl whilst the trucks whizzed by quite fast and close.

TFTC TheKellyGang

CPWanderer, Gizmo's Gang and Owl were heading home after an excellent adventure, but not before a few more caches. This cache never seems to be there when Owl is passing, but a physiotherapy-mandated rest stop led to a quick find by Owl, which was just as well, seeing trucks were getting perilously close to the owlmobile.

Quickly found. Tftc

This one caused distress as the Christmas tree was gone.

Tftc nice find at end of day

Nice spot found quickly.tftc.

Cache container has been replaced so cache is there ready be found

We spent a short time searching but with a number of DNF's, time to be checked out by CO.
