By duncast on 29-Aug-12. Waypoint GC3VNGG

DNF.

Not a safe place anymore

No luck

Looked all over. Couldn't find

I searched for this one alone a few weeks ago with no luck. Came back tonight with an extra 3 sets of eyes and looked all around but still couldn't find it. Is it still there?

Had a look but no success today

Dnf on the way home this one has me stumped

Quick find while on a caching day out with Mattycat exploring some caches down south TFTC duncast

Out on a caching run with Mr and Mrs Froghoppin,
seeing what we could find on a rainy day down south.
Umm, Yes you are !
Nice to have it off the list
TFTC duncast

Given the name of this cache I was a bit unsure about making a find at a time that could easily be so muggle friendly. I arrived at gz pleasantly surprised that I had the area to myself. On approaching gz I noticed something that seemed quite cache like and sure enough I was right. Upon opening the cache I found the log book very saturated and impossible to sign. Thankfully I had some paper on hand and I was able to sign my name, but I'd say the log book needs replacing asap. Still, it was a good cache.

Hmmm....I'm thinking you still may be LOL Nah, actually this was a fairly easy find today.

Out for a caching day trip with CPwanderer, Clare007 and Locus Cache with the aim of today being to collect a few caches from southern Adelaide including Tangari Regional Park....man oh man some of the finds today had us really earning the smileys given the steep and difficult terrain.

There was a lot of laughter [^], a few swear words , some huffing and puffing up the hills [xx(] (and bound to be some sore muscles tomorrow), LOADS of silly chatter which made us all giggle [:o)].....poor CP, lots of girl talk today!

Thanks for the cache

We (Locus Cache, Good Look & I) had a car full of caching women & one suffering CP,
who had to listen to our antics and girl talk
Poor CPWanderer couldn't remember which caches he had done or not
due to his proximity range on his GPS letting him down.
We gave up asking in the end and just put his name in every log..
We had lunch nearby and of course located the nearest cache to grab after lunch
No muggles here today , so a quick find for us today.
Thanks for the cache Duncast

Grabbed quickly after popping in to the post office. Log isn't full yet but won't be far off I reckon. TFTC.

Not to shabby

Very nice hide. TFTC.

What a good place for a hide in a suburban area. Logged and replaced cache in like two seconds coz the dog next door didn't like the sound of us sneaking about the other side of his fence. Tftc!

Very quick find today, after a previous dnf ages ago. Tftc

Found easily this time. .Surely we Looked there Before!
TFTC

On the way home had to grab some milk cool Lil find tftc

Nice quick find. TFTC.

Nice hide not wear you think

Pretty easy but good hide

Sitting around having a coffee. Any caches about. Yep Maybe 2 stars. TFTC Out with steamer531 and poppybloom53 on a hot and humid day.

While sitting back enjoying a coffee at a nearby cafe, checked my GPS to find that this cache was only 80m away, too close not to have a go at.
Tricky hide had me looking for a while.

[green]Find #7274[/green]...

Found this as I travelled around the area letting my GPS be my guide...

A beautiful day to be out and about in this area grabbing some smilies...

A short search, found the cache, stamped and returned...

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for my enjoyment duncast...

Stamped Log...

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!

Its Tuesday night... That means mid week night caching.
Sushilord, Locus cache and Semik, What a nice area to explore, initially in daylight and then darkness later in the evening. We cached through til it started raining, approx 11:00pm.
This one wasn't too bad, as one of the group had done it before.

Found It!
This one wasn't too bad. Only took 5mins and there was no one around to disrupt the search (they were all over at Maccas admiring the fire truck that was on display today). Only one very yappy dog to worry about...
TFTC

4th visit and a PAF later, and this one is finally off my list. TFTC. 3/10/2015, 10:10 Find #831

Going past this one so AnyMules decided some assistance along with daylight could help. Sure enough after a search the log was able to be signed TFTC 3/10/2015 10:11 am Find #674

Thus one has been my nemesis for some time.... After doing a nearby FTF I decided to come back with Goldflow to grab it. TFTC Duncast

Found after searching for a few minutes glad to be away from that dog

found it on a night caching run with jacknor. the next door neighbours dog did its serial yapping thing. happy to be out there in under 5 mins

Nice quiet night. But alas no luck.

Found it but couldn't sign, too cold and wet. Not too hard of a find, tftc with comp pool.

Wet logs, impossible to work with.

Found with arsenal4life. Tftc

This was a cool cache.
The Ukulele Kid found this one, but it was after quite a bit of searching around that blasted building.
TFTC

This ******* really was one. An excellent camo, an annoying spot nd I will be happy to never see this building again. Thanks duncast.

Sneeky little sucker. Made more fun by the fact there was rubbish dumped over it. TFTC

very high muggle area today, but managed to spot the little b....... sign the log and put it back without being seen. starting to get very overgrown here they might start cleaning up soon so it may be disturbed at some time. Thanks duncast your not really so much of a bastard. tftc

I expected a long search but found it quite quickly. TFTC

Very sneaky but ended up being a quick find
Tftc duncast

So Mattycat finds himself at a loose end with no nomadic group tonight.
What else to do, but grab the trusty torch and go solo night caching in dark parks
No luck with bastard caches tonight. this one the gps had me in someone's backyard,
so I just decided to google it and see what's up! Will return.
(But seriously, all the other caches tonight were there....... need new glasses)

Had a good look but a local dog was getting angry so we decided to stop.

Been back here 3 times with no luck. Brought Goldflow with me on the third occasion but still no joy. Will try again in a week or so.

We couldn't find it (Looked for almost half an hour) and the dog was a bastard LOOOL

Tricky, Tricky, Tricky .
Spent far too long searching around the wrong side of the building .
TNLNSL.
Thanks Duncast.

I found this a while ago but had not logged it. I found it with vj187. TFTC

Found with 2011*turtle. We felt a bit strange looking here. Should we be here? Found the cache, signed it and left quickly. TFTC

Out on a cold, wet, wintery day with Madham02 and we had just been to bastard #3 so decided to come past here on our way to lunch. I have driven past here numerous times but have never stopped, today was the day.
Had a look in the obvious spots, then the not so obvious but with a different perspective the cache was sighted and soon in hand.
Thanks for another interesting cache duncast.

With Dora(JJ52) and the three of us were looking but it was the right perspective from Dora who came up with cache
TFTC and effort duncast

Tftc

Found with ziggy58

Tricky tricky and annoying dogs

Way too many spiders for me to look with confidence, plus an annoying yappy dog barking constantly at us from behind the fence. When the dogs owners came out and told it to be quiet we thought we'd make an exit before the came to see what he was barking at!!!!

So close... Yet so far...

Nice easy find. TFTC.

Luckily put my hand on it fairly quickly!!! Thanks duncast for the hide!!!

Found with CPW and Sarni Girl on a pleasant afternoon caching. No one around in the area we needed to look made the job easier. TFTC

Out for a nights caching with White Dog Gang.

We found 12 caches in about 2.5 hours.

Thanks to all who placed caches, your caches are keeping Lava12 from my heels.

Found in the last place we looked.

TFTC

Out for an evening run with Team Waldron
Not as hot as we thought it may be, very pleasant in some spots.
Found easily
TFTC duncast

Sneaky hide but took us quite a while to work out how to open the container!

In the end, found it.

Sorta hard lol

I like this.

Took us a while but found it eventually.

Easy find

Well I'm now officially the dodgiest guy in this area
Thanks!

Once I recorded my name I left the area and, well, it would have looked odd for muggles to see me in such an area

At last we have a nice sunny day that is not cold to go caching in, out with Locus Cache and Honeysucker for a good part of the day, today we are going for our 1000th find so down south is the target area, we got to see some wonderfull sights and find some really good caches, we look forward to returning to the southern areas to do some more caching : ) TFTC

Quick and easy find at night. Bit of a nothing corner. TFTC!

not easy in the rain... next time maybe

Wet night. No luck.

We searched for the earlier cache at this site and failed to find it.
Then, on another occasion , thought I knew where it was, but could not reach it , and was interrupted by a Mitre10 employee. (It was there, but I missed out)
This time I found it. The dog was a bast..d, as before.TFTC

You're (not so much of) a bastard
Found it after a short search.
Gread hide
Thanks duncast for the cache

Out for another caching adventure with Aussie M&M - M and CPWanderer. Our mission to clear a few caches down south, not fall over, not rip daks and not spill blood. And we successed....almost. Okay so there was some minor scratches and a little blood. I also managed 46 finds and unfortunately 5 DNFs. Swapped 3 trackables and planted 5 of my pathtags along the way. Another great day.

Our second DNF and two in a row, so yes you are. We pulled up and Mitre 10 muggle asked if he could help us. Didn't lower the roller door for quite some time and we thought he was watching so talked for a few minutes. Eventually the roller door went down and we went out and tried for the cache. My GPS wanted me over the fence with the incescently barking dog. This shortened the search as surely he had alerted Mitre 10 muggle by now. So chalk up one for the bastard..zilch for the hurried and harried cachers.

Sorry duncast but brisal5, CP and I think you might be..... We couldn't find this, didn't help that the Mitre 10 guy was intent on watching us for quite a while then a dog decided to let everyone and their dog know that we were not where we should be....Hmmm, is it still there???? No find for us.

We had 2 goes at this the first time a worker from Mitre 10 was out the back filling gas bottles so we went and had lunch at the nearby Macca's then returned with no one around so got in there for the find.

Nicely done.

TFTC

Rocked up to do this one and muggle shop attendant was in the wrong place so went and had maccas for lunch and then went back and all was clear... Loved the camo..
thanks duncast for the cache

good hide took a while but found it cache needs waterproofing TFTC

Mrs Sandalwood Cottage directed Mr Sandalwood Cottage to the closest parking area so we drove in and parked the Geomobile but then Mr Sandalwood Cottage was determined it must be over the fence at the back of the Dentist so without even getting out of the car we headed out and went there instead but on reaching that area Mr Sandalwood Cottage decided that this area was more of a private property area and finally admitted she was probably correct the first time so back we went and parked exactly where we had just been, all the while Ninja Nanna just stayed out of the debate and went with the flow. Then it was just a matter of navigating the terrain to GZ and Ninja Nanna stood right next to it so it was an easy find but the pesky mutts over the fence knew we were there and kept barking much to the dismay of their owners who kept yelling at the mutts to stop and must have wondered why their pooches were going nuts at the fence unaware that they could smell fresh Geocaching Blood just over the fence but can't get to it....TFTC

Searched on a warm morning with Mr & Mrs Sandalwood Cottage. Mr has keen eyes

I had no problems with finding this cache.

Thanks for the cache duncast.

Mr Tardis was on a caching run through the Happy Valley area today. This was my first cache in this particular series, and thank goodness a relatively quick find. I had the cloak of invisibility on just incase I got muggled out - but thankfully I didn't. A very appropriate container for this location.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache duncast.

Found during a foray into the southern suburbs. Luckily not to be 'sprung' searching for this one as there's not too many reasons you would need to be there. Last cache tor the day. Thanks duncast!

Fairly straight forward find if you follow the hint. TNLNSL. TFTC!

A pretty quick find with geodaughter. Thanks duncast.

With the bastard-factor reduced I was expecting an easier find here. Given the location, what better time to grab this than Xmas day. Yep, on the way to Xmas lunch. Was about 10 minutes late as a result. Who's the bastard now hey?? My little present to me on Xmas Day! Ticking another box for the Public Holiday Challenge as well. TFTC duncast.

We made this one harder than it is! Found by geodaughter - finally we were there when no one else was around. TFTC!

Quick find.TFTC

Aquick and easy find. TFTC

We were here at night when no-one was around so one trip for us. SL TFTC

Since muggle partner had to spend a day down south working, I figured it was a great excuse for me to go and cache down there
I ended up with the laughter filled company of muff1 and what was to have been a short couple of hours caching with them instead turned into 7 hours [^]
Then after dropping them at their geovehicle, I achieved locus cache on some more caches on my own until muggle partner was ready for the long drive back home!
All in all, a good day's caching with 2 FTFs, 2 DNFs and a total of 11 smileys
My first cache without muff1 for the day and luckily this was an easy find in the first real spot that I checked!
Cool hide [^]... took me a few minutes to actually get it open so that I didn't break it while opening it!
SL. TFTC duncast

Spent some time this afternoon caching an area we don't often get the cahnce to be in. Some friends are moving out of their house nearby so we were down this way today to lend a quick hand.

Yeah, a bit of a bastard, but thanks to a previous log I found it within a few minutes of searching. TFTC

The log is back in place, but with a much less inspired camo. I'm afraid that a similar camo put up in the same place will walk just as the previous one did... I'm going to use the camo idea elsewhere.

Coordinates changed from:
S 35° 05.016 E 138° 33.765

Coordinates changed to:
S 35° 05.016 E 138° 33.766

Distance from original: 5.1 feet or 1.5 meters.

There we go

Yup looks as if the camo has gone, the staff in the store don't know anything about it's disappearance either, so I'm going to have to make a new one and move it someplace else.

Apparently the cache container has gone missing, will investigate ASAP
