"Where U at"? bloody nano Mt Barker, South Australia, Australia

As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Is it coming back any time soon?

disabling the cache to fix it, back online soon

Can the cache owner check this is still at GZ and able to be retrieved [?]. We think it may be gone , so a replacement is needed or the cache may need to be archived [xx(].

well after having a look at all the logs i dont feel to annonyed about this DNF as it seems that alot of people have had troubles with it. We ( 4hillscaching and I) think we were in the right spot but as we didnt find we are not sure. I will be keeping an eye on this one as I dont like DNFs.

Had a quick caching run and thought I would hit this one. Not a good one for today! Put my hand in where I thought it might be and came back out covered with ants. Climbing was fun but no joy today.

had a good look but no luck for us today

Claiming a find for this one as we saw it but couldn't retrieve, it has failed down deeper. Maintenence required.

Hah...a lesson in reading logs before hunting a cache...!
Notes gleaned for this one:
1. Go at low traffic time of day (early morning, evening)
2. Involves climbing so don't wear short skirt in broad daylight...!!!
3. Last 2 attempts by others have failed
4. Bring a stool...!

May try again when more suitably attired...!!!

Spotted it but it's fallen so far in I couldn't get it out.

Looked in the area other logs seemed to be describing and even turned up the codey , but couldn't locate the cache today .
Hunted around with our grab stick, but still no success [B)].
We'll keep watch to see if others can find it before returning.
Thanks Team jacks.

Great hiding place, definitely read past logs and walk around the location for easier accessibility

Freddo is making me find nanos all over the place on my 'calendar gap days' ( http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=4ebb1571-049f-420a-bc9f-0c6ee75c4762 ). However I believe nano's are the spawn of Satan. This nano was big enough however to have some wildlife in it. So the shark got rescued and will be taken back to Adelaide.
tftc Team Jacks

Finally managed to locate this one, which was more like a mini challenge.
First I took a container which I hoped to use as a step to the next, but the gap was still too big.
Went back home and obtained my stool & was able to pull myself up.
Found an interesting decoy, the cache and left Bruce the shark he was a bit big for what I had in mind.
A CNN video coverage would of had a good laugh at me carrying the stool across the road, and then watching me trying to step up to the location. This deserves a favourite point for the challenge.

I went to see if I could find this one, (armed with better instructions) only to find the nano on the floor. I now realise after reading Team Jack's log that the nano is the old one. Anyhow, I have it drying at home, so if you want it back that's okay. Still have to figure out how the hell you people climbed up there in the first place without doing an injury!

replaced log and container with new one's..lol see how long they last.TY

thought id go for a midnight ride to check this cache....lost the new log on the way..LOL but had a bagged up ''bruce the shark'' TB..now I know that I had no chance of fitting him into the nano cache but where the cache is placed can house TB's(should have placed a bigger container but then it wouldnt suit its name) anyway bruce is there I also need to return to place a new log.....cheers p.s didnt see flipper and co's TB but I may not have looked properly

Found at dawn with Brisal5 and mogni. The log was so wet it had turned to pulp.Thanks team jacks for the hide!

will replace log asap...TY

Out early with Mogin and CP wanderer for a days puzzle caching in town with Aussie M&M. Couldn't resist getting a few on the way down. This had been bugging us all for a while now as it is in a high muggle area. 7.00 a.m. on a Sunday morning seemed the perfect time. Did the climb for an easy find when up, retrieved the micro containing, opened it but the log was completely wet. No spare logs to replace it had to leave it unsigned as trying to take it out wet would disintergrate it. Needs a new log. Thanks Team Jacks.

A quick find, but unable to log. Sorry need to make some spares for my caching bag. Another job for the holidays. Bought a little tool for helping make them
Thanks

Stamped a log that is actually paper mache.

Thanks to team jacks and clear skies from TeamAstro.

Used a child to collect the cache. Signed a log that is turning to paper mache.

This cache has me confused along with my GPS.
Be back for another try.

An appropriately named cache!
Cheers & TFTH

No luck for me. Thanks for the hunt.

TRICKY! Using my monkey skills I retrieved the cache. I love a good hunt. TFTC!

The agility of accomplice BantamCT took the find to the required elevation. Thanks for the cache team jacks!

At last.TFTC

Thanks to a hint from the CO this was easy.

I'd rate as a 3 for terrain.
The coordinates are actually at:
S 35° 4.478
E 138° 52.017
(averaged to 2.5 meters)

Thanks for setting. I did enjoy the little suprise with the cache.

Plenty of possible places on the other side of the road from the residence at which we find GZ.

Not found on a day out caching with Witch of the South. For some reason we signed everything for the 5th, not the 4th. Felt very exposed on the footpath and in the front garden. Too much traffic to extend our stay.

have been here twice for a look and been watched by the occupants of the house on both occasions.... we may leave it a while before we return as we think they may report us next time!!! haha saw some things that didn't fit but were solid, i think the coords need adjusting but great place for a hide, we will return.

At least give us some better coordinates to work with. It could be anywhere. I see a surge in Telstra shares.

Mr Tardis must have had his mojo set to eleven today. Although the co-ordinates are quite a way out (wrong side of the road), I managed to pick a likely spot, and found the out of place thing, and the rest fell into place.

This is a really good hiding place - why would you put a nano here, when you could fit a small sistema container?

Thanks for the challenge and fun team jacks.

And as Freddo said: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xeh4-RNZEs

You win this time. You pwned us. What freddo said.

Thanks to team jacks and clear skies from TeamAstro.

Second visit. My first team jacks find. This time armed with an "intelligent guess" and bingo the hunch was correct. Does deserve a favourite point, I think. Thanks team jacks.

Nice try team jacks but you didn't out smart us!!! Found with the st Clair clan and Shellybobbob!!!!! TFTF!!!!

Yahooooooo didn't out smart us!!!!

Found with shellybobbob and talbie!!!!!!
TFTF!!! Nice one!!!

Very clever hide however I do feel the coordinates should reflect the location a little better. Found with the st Clair clan and talbie tftc

Dnf Team Jacks, we looked 4 the out of place & found a thing or 2 which dint budge so we thought we were in the wrong place but admittedly odieodie & I didnt stick around long as we were aware of a man looking around Thursday & Friday about 25+ cars a minute were passing us by...& after 2 appearances in 2 days..we don't want 2 spoil things either..so another time.

HUGE apologies for the very late log - we were actually second to find this one. In my defence I have moved house and had a job interview since finding this - life has gone onto fast forward! Eldest cacher was nimble enough to find this, although we disturbed a huge ants nest at our feet and the ants went crazy. After that it became increasingly difficult to access the cache location without being covered in very cross ants! Needless to say eldest cacher was not at all keen and the cache got put back rather hurriedly, so we're glad to see everyone seems to have found it since. Just to note - the extra piece of the cache was not attached to the log container - not sure if this needs maintenance or it is supposed to be like that. The next cache turned out to be ant infested too - grr - we hate ants!
Thanks for the challenge Team Jacks. I am looking forward to setting some caches of my own once my gear arrives from Scotland...

Ok been here twice, GPS does not like this area and then when I got it working still in wrong spot acording to logs. Tried to follow hint but no luck..... this was my second visit, maybe 3rd time lucky. Looked with dory girl.

LEFT OR RIGHT????.......NOW....... UP OR DOWN??????Remember what's not suppose to be there????USE IT...... If I give much more it will be to obvious....

What did we miss? Searched for ages with the mini-cachers and with the lovemakers (nice to meet you) until the complaining became too loud and we had to leave. Grr - team Jacks - I think you are going to be our Nemesis! And you beat us to FTF at 'shelter from the storm....

coords may be out due to gumtrees (its on the skipper st side of Alexandrina rd) theres ya hint...lol }:)

FTF TFTC!!
