I have no idea what the hint means in relation to the cache? Lol. GPS was a bit AWOL so that may have affected the last DNF. Full confession, Alexander81234 found it as I was ready to quit
after a couple of failed attempts and some help from a previous finder, this sneaky cache has finally been found. thanks for the cache!
TFTC. Down in Adelaide for some medical appointments & calisthenics comp . What else to do with spare time?? Cache of course! Happy caching and safe travels!Well, we had a look, read some logs, had another look, read more logs then changed our search area and in about 5secs found it!Also meet lovely CO as a bonus!
Something special or unusual goes here:Five months ago I had a big DNF here. Contacted the CO who checked and advised it had been lost in the bushes but was still there and now back to where it should have been. So we went and made our meandering way to GZ where a quick find was made. That was the only quick bit about it. The cache had been rusted tight in the year since it was last opened. Back to the geomobile for some tools. One set of pliers holding one end the cold fingers turning the other. [^] Still couldn't budge it. Some WD40 and it still didn't budge. [:(!] Two sets of pliers did the trick. Now for the log. In went the tweezers but all I could get out were small pieces of mushy log. [:(!] Bugger. [B)] New log and new cache put back in place exactly as found. old cache needs a bit of a wire brush to make it usable again and left for CO. [8)]The Generic Bit:Another Tuesday Trekking for just two puzzle solvers today. I picked up S.A. Sewer Rats at the Rat's nest and we went in search of newer caches and the gonna doos nearby. You know - those caches you regularly pass by but that are just near your path but off the main road with several turns and drive backs to get to. Gonna doo them one today.! Well - today was gonna be that day! ***Thanks Team RedWolf for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Logs prepared and published through GSAK.
Searched high, searched low and despite the presence of a previous finder this cache eluded me today. You are only as good as your last find....you pwned this noob today! **Thanks Team RedWolf for the search anyway. **
We had a good look around and could not see any item that look cachy. We realise that the cache is most likely there but today it was just to good for us.
Certainly felt conspicuous here but Mr sylken soon had the cache in hand. We replaced the very full log.
Many thanks for the hide Team RedWolf

Oh what a pretty sight to see when finding this cache. Made some new friends like I do! Found with Northstar76 and Giselle_13
Met the owner, nice to meet you team RedWolf. Pretty horse we met. Found with superman_22 and giselle_13.
Like a few others I felt a little conspicuous, then one of the neighbours showed up asking if I was lost - umm no, and kept my head buried in my phone.
Read some previous logs but nothing there to give this prize away
I wandered back to GZ, first thing I checked turned up this little beauty
Gets a FP from me, have seen one or two of these hides around. Not that common so always good to find it

Geo day out now down to Jolly0, and sandelf. Started looking for cache and CO came out to check if it was still in place and helped us locate it, much appreciated. TFTC
Tried a few places but couldn't spot it unfortunately. Thanks. Nice dog out the front watching us but wouldn't help
Well this was a bit of a saga. I arrive and calculate that GZ is an open gate with “Caution: Guard Dog” written on it. No luck in my first 5 minutes of looking, and now I’ve got the attention of a chihuahua from further up the road - he’s out in the street heading my way. I PAF for help, but now two of the residents have come out. One claims the chihuahua and retreats, the other comes over to see what I’m up to. PAF still in progress, the owner of the house with the alleged guard dog has also come out. She’s the CO!! Turns out the cache has moved from its usual spot, but with the insider knowledge, it is soon found. As a bonus, the neighbour now knows all about geocaching, although she doesn’t seem too impressed with the concept. And there was a guard dog, but he was having a nap. Phew, cache of the day!!
Found during a trip out to the northern suburbs and beyond! Very satisfying clearing up another area on the map. Thanks for the cache Team RedWolf!
Loved this cache, gave it a favourite ️
After a big walk yesterday (27kms), today we decided to go for a bit of a drive around rather than a walk!

Keep smiling

Arrived here and this took me quite some time for some reason. I started looking in the bush but had no luck there. A quick paf and they pointed in the right direction but still nothing another paf and the cache was found. It was very tough to get out and will probably be the same again
Today I headed north to Angle Vale/Gawler area to clean up the remaining caches I had left to find in the area, despite the car saying it was 43 degrees majority of the day the car was nice and cool. Total of 23 finds.

I felt very conspicuous while looking for the cache. Eventually I felt brave enough to actually look. I must have taken a misstep and almost lost my balance and reached out to steady myself only to find the cache in my hand. That was lucky. Cute hide. TFTC
Loved the horse wanting to socialise! TYFTC SLTNLN clever hide cornered us both. Geopup wanted a walk anyway!
Tftc.gps was bouncing and had to watch out for the chickens and horses hopefully people in the house didn't see me
I actually walked straight up to it. TFTC! Clever hide! Love the flowers close by. Spotted the tool recommended to use to retrieve cache but had my own for once!
Having almost cleared my 24K circle of traditionals it was time to expand the circle to 42K and today I headed north then a bit west.
Parked back a bit then checked out the area, nothing stood out so decided to read some logs. Not sure about the hint but the logs certainly helped make the find and BTW
Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

Owl needed to do maintenance and Mrs Rat was going crazy (or was that the other way around?) so they went off to find some nemesis caches and other things as cache therapy. This was a previous failure for Owl and it looked like another one until the CO emerged to give a hand. She did the necessary gardening that the dynamic duo wouldn't have dared to and a cache was found. A new log was donated to the cause and the pair drove away happy.
TFTC. Found on a lovely day out with Mr Cupcake. Love this sort of cache hide.
Very Tricky, Thanks for the clues Team RedWolf. TFTC. SL but used the incorrect year.
Nearly forgot to log this cache. A quick find while catching up with some lovely people in the area. Nice hide. TFTC
Quick find while out for the day with snakepiters from nsw.
The chook came and paid us a visit.

I tried to find this today, must have left my cache googles in the car because I didnt spot it, I did spot the curious chickens and the horse was having a good look.
I could have taken a little longer to search but the muggle husband was in the car getting anxious as the Crows game was about to start.
Ill come back again another day.

A day out and about caching with the company of Locus Cache & Clare007. You never know were you will ended up when you are out caching, an unexpected call from a family member make us change our plans and drive in a completely different direction, we have the chance to meet Locus Sister and to say hello to a fellow cachers at Nuri; we started the search and almost missed, looking an poking around we finally make the find !. It is so cute to have 4 chickens to come to say hello aaawww what a cute little ones !! And after all the noice the cache owner was at home and she came out to say hi and have a little chat !
That was nice to meet you and let me hold your chickens

Out & about with Locus Cache & Andy Colombia today.
I accidentally knocked the cache off it's hiding spot, (oops)
and had to search through the grass to find it again [:0]
We managed to grab the attention of three brown chickens who though we had food to offer.
Locus cache was shooting the chickens back into the gate when one of the COs appeared to say hello.
Team RedWolf is lucky they still have four chickens as I think Andy Columbia was quite taken with them
The local dog was giving us a good barking to while standing in the middle of the road.
The dog had to hasten it's speed as it soon found a car on it's tail, it's lucky that Locus cache didn't let Broadie out [^]
Thanks for the cache & the chat Team RedWolf

Found it ally kaleb nick bottroff.. toooo small to get out to write on...
There's a suitable 'tool' for removing the log hanging on the fence about 30cm away
Nice day for some geocaching after all the christmas parties over with. This was a little tricky due to location, I had a woman from big shed back up the road wondering down and asking questions so had to pop cache before signing so not to give location away. This might of been better at night I think.
Out and about with Mattycat exploring some of the lower mid north back roads and dry weather tracks, but decided to grab a couple of closer ones on our way back, tricky hide and glad the cat spotted this one quickly having seen one or two of this type before any muggles showed up TFTC Team RedWolf
A good day's caching tour with Mr Froghoppin. [^]
Matty had been past here before, but expected something,
well, more sheepish.
After a quick look around, the little sod was located and
this awkward feeling cache crossed off the list!

Between an appointment in Two Wells and a birthday party, south of Gawler, decided to catch a few smileys.
Geo-hubby had this in hand before I could blink! No tweezers required but a new log sheet is!

Rocked up here on a sunny wintry day and observed some Muggles. Heard the lady say "geocachers" and thought all was good - they are not muggles, they are one of us. Then a big man comes towards us with a big pole and Sam thinks "ahhhh he is going to hit us with the pole" . Turns out, this couple were the ones who hid the cache. Thanks to you both for letting us know we were at least on the right side of the culdesac and respecting our wishes not to give hints until we got desperate. Imagine Sam's surprise when we came upon the cache... "She says OMG, that is so clever! - Imagine that! It was in plain sight"
I could win an award for most caches found but not logged online. Please forgive this very generic log. If I admired your cache you'll get a favourite point from me and I'll likely come back and edit this log once I've caught up. If this generic log makes you unhappy - delete it. Life's too short to worry over it, I had fun finding your cache either way. Cheers!
SEMIK and I visited your cache whilst in the area for an evening of night caching.
Thanks for the cache.

This was an amazing walk to this cache. Walked 8 km at sunset (dark by the time we got there) with my best friend i was visiting from interstate to find this one. It was a great Hide with but we found it with luck on both our behalf, but we forget our pencil! And frankly we needed tweezers to get the pad ouT haha. So going against morals and geocache law we took the cache home. Our deepest apologies and we promise first chance tomorrow's it will be back in its exact spot. TFTC
Ahhh...sneaky... Second attempt at this, first time was several muggles in the house at the end and als across the street. Still had us looking longer than we should have.. was looking for a completely different type of hide..TFTC
Out for a days caching with Freddo.
We didn't feel sheepish just stupid when it took us longer than it nshould have.
Cool hide.
Thanks to all who placed caches.

Found after a short search. Cool hide. Only found after I leant on it and it fell off. LOL. Couldn't sign log as I did not have the required tool. TFTC.
Decided to stop looking.. looked rather suss searching around at the end of a cauldersac in front of a couple houses.. Seen horses watched them gallop around. didn't see the sheep but felt a little sheepish.. lol thanks for bringing us to this spot.. with Ados31.
Heading out to do the 60 series and grab as many caches as we could to clear this area of the map, weather started out great but turned mid afternoon, even after reading the logs and getting the impression this may be the COs hideout one stills feels a bit uncomfortable about being around ones front yard, sheep are friendly and GPS was bouncing a bit, for a moment i thought the letter box may have been the cache but with mail in it i wanted to be as far away from that as i could lol, when i finally found the cache the GPS had 2 metres so the coords are good once it settles down, very cool cache container and fav point for the container. TFTC
Found on the way down to the SA Geocaching Awards in Adelaide.
Were a bit hesitant to look for this one due to the location but gave it a go anyway. We looked in the wrong spot to start with but soon had it in hand after a few minutes.

Great to have the CO at gz and with a little help as the smartphone didnt want to cooperate with us. Tftc pegasus and good to see you are ok
Found after a little seach while out caching with Moreoldies. A clever hide that we almost missed. TFTC
I abandoned this one because I felt very uncomfortable searching out side of someones place.
Owl, Ismartis, CP Wanderer and Spidermonkey9 found sheep, a very observant sheepdog and some horses, but no cache. More accurate coordinates would have helped, as they felt very uncomfortable searching the dead end of a street when the owners were clearly not home.
Out caching with Dr Owl, CPwanderer and Spidermonkey 9 today. We found sheep here, we found yappy dogs, we even found a Siberian husky who was intently watching us the whole time we were there. I'm sure he knew where the cache was but he wasn't telling us. The sheep tried to tell us but we still couldn't find it. In the end we aborted the attempt when we read the logs and realized the coords were way out.
Perhaps the cache owner could update the coordinates sometime to make it a bit easier? TFTC

Todays find on the 31 day streak. We are doing quiet well and being in a few different places help. Tftcsl
So after running some chores in Gawler today the Geo family thought we should go and get these caches that were on the top of our closest to home list.
After Arriving at Ground zero (well what my stupid Iphone 4 said) we were looking around under bushes, playing with taps and fending off small yappy dogs.
After reading some logs i read that someones GPS was 15 metres out, so i broadened my search area. Just as i placed my hand on it i noticed someone coming out of the house near by and i thought oh no sprang.
But the lady had a smile on her face and had that geocaching look about her and sure enough it was the owner and i tell you what geocaching people are the nicest people on earth. After a being introduced to her sheep and feeding them we were soon on our way to the next cache on our list.

Had seen these type of cache on the website but have until now not found one tftc
Went here, went there, how the hell can you not look suspicious here?
Found the waterless tap, found a sheep, then found the very well cammoed cache not looking out of pkace at all.
Probably the 4th hide like this in as many days. Well done.
Thanks

This one had been burning a hole in the unit for ages.
Interesting little community here. I actually felt sheepish - and was greeted by some barrs as I hopped out of the car. GZ had me in the bush - no way I could find the sucker. I phaffed and was directed to a spot that was initially 15 m from where my unit was saying it was. I put the unit down on a post, logged the log and then saw it was 1m accuracy. Hmmm. Nice container. [^]
Thanks to Pegasus93 and clear skies from TeamAstro.
Found It!
I've done many caches like this now so it was a quick and easy find. The dog must be asleep too since it was very quite...

Finally, I made it to another one of McKee Clan's CITO events and did my community service by picking up rubbish
Then, leaving bags of rubbish and tyres in McKee Clan's capable hands, I escaped and went caching with Muff1 for his last few Adelaide area caches and with Laighside Legends for the rest of the day
Had a total of 16 successful locus cache occassions and only 1 DNF
A nice quick find by LL before I got the GPSr fired up
However we needed to christen my new tweezers to get the log out but I do guarantee that the cache is there and it may just eb that I am getting deaf but I didn't hear any muggle dogs

Quick easy find by the two kids with a little assistance by the cache owner. Tftc
Thankyou for the cache and great to meet some fellow cachers for our 800th cache.
