JJ52 and I decided to grab this one while we were in the area for an event. Snuck around some fences pretending we worked there for the fringe and made the sneaky find. First names on the new log. TFTC. 6/02/2016, 10:55 Find #1366
 
06-Feb-16
AnyMules and I wandered over here after an event but were greeted by a big fence...when has a fence ever stopped a geocacher. [?]
So we found our way around the fence and in to GZ amongst all the work that was going on getting ready for the fringe. Found the cache and signed the log, but could not make out the reference to the beer bottle. [?]
Thanks for the cache Aiyudot. Smile
 
26-Jan-16
A new cache has been installed about a week ago. At the same site (where the beer bottle is). Please ensure that the cache is well hidden when replacing.
 
22-Jan-16
Found the bottle, in a Adelaide for the TDU 2 dicks are riding. Mother hen out caching, win win !!
 
14-Jan-16
This listing really requires some maintenance so that finders can correctly log their find. I'm just visiting and didn't have anything with me to replace the cache. Sorry.
 
06-Jan-16
The bottle or what ever it is missing. Looking forward to coming back soon Smile
 
03-Jan-16
Well we found it. I guess
 
Found the bottle. Disappointing that it's been muggled. Visiting Adelaide from Melbourne. After delighting the Geokids with a cold drink from the nearby choc cafe we thought it only right that we do a cache nearby. Easily found in this heat. Now back on to your wonderful free buses.
 
29-Dec-15
Found the bottle. It's very well jammed in I spent ages trying to get it out before realizing that it is in fact only a beer bottle.
 
28-Dec-15
TFTC
 
28-Dec-15
First time that we consider finding a beer bottle finding a cache. Whatever. Hope it gets replaced as we liked the memorial.
 
27-Dec-15
After arriving at the coordinates and not finding anything, I read the description and found the beer bottle. Tftc (which was not there) Smile
 
21-Dec-15
Dusty bottle indeed! Miss 6 was more interested in climbing the tree!
 
15-Dec-15
What ever you do... Don't stick your hand in that hole.

The fella in there doesn't seem to be friendly to forefingers.
 
09-Dec-15
A few people logged that they couldn't find the cache, so I checked it out. Yep, looks like it has gone missing and there is a beer bottle where it should be. Until I get a chance to replace the cache (in the new year), please consider finding the beer bottle as a sign that you've found the cache.
 
09-Dec-15
I could not find it either
 
05-Dec-15
Didn't find it. Fell out of the tree when I found this little fellow though!
 
03-Dec-15
Nothing but rubbish, think it's gone
 
29-Nov-15
Think I know where it is meant to be but nothing but an empty beer bottle jammed in. May have been muggled, wait and see.
 
17-Nov-15
A nice place to take a rest. Greetings from Germany.

Found it
 
01-Nov-15
On holiday from the UK. Out for an early morning stroll and found myself in the park. Had a quick look at the I Phone and noticed this one. Followed the directions which were fine, found myself at the required tree. After a few minutes when the coast was clear I retrieved the cache, sat on the bench doing the admin then returned it to its hiding place. SLB. TFTC.
 
26-Oct-15
The description is a little off it's more south west of the monument. The hint was helpful. TFTC
 
11-Oct-15
Loulabelle994 & I were walking around the city doing some smiley collecting. Followed the directions and ended up at the correct location. Stopped for a snack & sign the log. TFTC Aiyudot
 
11-Oct-15
Out and about with Aunty Hev (hevwalker12) in the city. We completed 4 earth caches, among many other traditionals, plenty enough to grant us our souvenir.

Found the directions a tad confusing and contradictory. Sat down for a nibble and found the cache.
 
07-Oct-15
Found pretty quickly next to a rat skull and an empty beer bottle. TFTC!
 
07-Oct-15
Early morning start for the day in adelaide. Easy find. Tftc. Smile)

Hard to collect with council workers about mowing lawns,but 'smoko' certainly helped!
 
29-Sep-15

29-Sep-15
A quick find using cache description. TFTC.

Found bag, and skull. It was exactly where other logs have indicated. We returned everything as found. Thanks for our first cache in Adelaide! What a beautiful park.
 
14-Sep-15
Caching around Adelaide. Thanks for the fun, puzzles and hides from a Californian cacher. All logs marked with a "Circled GB". Only after searching posted GZ did I read only to find was a substantial distance away.

01-Sep-15
Relatively easy to find. With Weredunnfor.... Read the activities. This can be tricky
 
01-Sep-15
Found with BroodGeneral - signed log
 
Found, alas it is BYO pen. Lovely area!
 
28-Aug-15
Yay! First cache in SA!
 
25-Aug-15
Not what I was expecting at all. My sat nav must be off. Previous clues helped greatly
 
07-Aug-15
Out in sun walking around on a chance hunt over from Melbourne thanks
 
06-Aug-15
Not where it said but the detail helped!
 
05-Aug-15

Tree was definitely not in the North East, but definitely behind the park bench. Easy hide, there was a little animal skull in there. Someone must've guarded the cache to the death. Thanks for the hide.

Ps: Africola across the road is a great place for some South African delicacies.
 
01-Aug-15
Nice one ! Off to "chocolateria" for a hot chocolate, aazl
 
28-Jul-15
Was a bit confused to start with because looking north west only resulted in looking at the building. If you're facing East Tce, look around 10 o'clock for the war memorial. Got to the cache and found it very exposed. Had a spare logbook so added that and removed the cough lolly that was in the bag (ewwww!) Covered the cache back up with a nearby pinecone so hopefully that will stay put. TFTC
 
28-Jul-15
A quick find for me today.
Spotted the hide as I approached.
No container just a zip lock bag.
Needs some TLC.

Signed the 8 of Diamonds.
TFTC Aiyudot. Big Grin

Find #1234
 
25-Jul-15
Nice little one. Had it as a target for a while. No log book thought. Nice one still
 
20-Jul-15
Sunny day in the parklands. Low muggle time. My niece loved it! TFTC.
 
20-Jul-15
Tree is SOUTH East of the obelisk. TFTC, left some Pom poms
 
19-Jul-15
Out with Team -Crumble we followed the hints ..... debated which direction was North lol saw a water trough which I never noticed was there before although I have walked past this park many a times. Found the GZ please follow the hint cos if you go higher you may meet a lil furry friend in their home Smile TFTC
 
18-Jul-15
Careful of which hole you stick your hands in. .. almost grabbed a possum. I doubt it would have enjoyed the experience. TFTC Smile
 
18-Jul-15
Wish some-one had warned me that owhen you turned 50, the government sends you a kit to collect your pooSurprised
Anyway, have tried for this cache before when working in the city but the old location was muggle central whenever I went past.
Today (apologies to Team_Crumble) I thought we had the same problem again as I thought there were muggles hanging around GZ, but it turned out they were a newer team - welcomeSmile although we tried a different tree until they left.
A quick find, and for the second time another zombie possum, although this one was missing the body.
Quick sign on the card the TwistedMad March HareTwisted would pick.
TNLN, TFTC Aiyudot

P.S Now to hope the government tests are all clearWink

Found it. Beautiful spot to sit down.
 
13-Jul-15
Go it! Easiest one yet!!!
 
11-Jul-15
Found it using the hints. Lovely log book idea x
 
04-Jul-15
Followed the hints and not the maps!
 
Some caches have brilliant containers. With this one, it's the log book. Easy find. Even easier if you pretend that east is north. TFTC!
 
29-Jun-15
Finally !!!!
Every other time I've been past this one it seemed to have gone from its old hidey hole.
Now more of a multi in a way, but luckily the obelisk in question is pretty obvious,
I'd look NE, then SE... but my compass might be dodgy TwistedTwistedTwisted
Once located across the way, signed on my card - the Jack of all Spades Cool
tftc Aiyudot Smile

25-Jun-15
My first found in Adelaide.
 
22-Jun-15
Tftc!
 
19-Jun-15
Found after taking a short lunchtime walk from work. This one has been on my radar for quite a while, but I've never been in the area when it's been quiet. The change of location meant a daytime find was easier. Loved the log book which was signed on the A of H, and TFTC Aiyudot!
 
17-Jun-15
I tried to find this one at the original GZ many fringe festivals ago, however there were way to many juggles to even make an attempt. After work was a good time to find it now as there were not many people around and the instructions were easy to follow. TFTC and sorry for the late log.
 
15-Jun-15
Good hide
 
08-Jun-15
Good hide loved the description

30-May-15
Checked a couple of times in a few different spots now but no luck
 
30-May-15
Yuck yuck yuck. Our group tried a few spots and no luck. Given the hint, we think it's gone.
 
30-May-15
Searched late at night with Bek-theraccoon, Alex-thesquirrel, jambochicken and munja, but we could not grab this one.
 
29-May-15

Found on a gorgeous morning - in between light changes. TFTC
 
20-Apr-15
Pretty sure I found the spot - had a good reach inside. Don't think it's there - needs a maintenance check!
 
19-Apr-15
I think I found where it is meant to be but far to many muggles around to do a proper look will be back
 
17-Apr-15
Great
 
16-Apr-15
Very dissapointed
 
15-Apr-15
Unfortunately this was a DNF for all of us tonight.
