After a week of caching around Adelaide incorporating The Great Leap Forward event, HansandLinda, MeandDe and I moved camp to Sedan to capture some more targeted caches. HansandLinda & I tackled this one today. Another great day for caching. TFTC Chrisval7
 
06-Mar-24
We're camped near Sedan with friends and this morning I retrieved HansandLinda from Mannum so we could find the NVRATHM "helmet" series. Once we'd finished that, we headed back to camp for lunch and then they got the notification that their car was ready to be picked up so back to Mannum we went. There were a few stops on the way....Thanks for find #5606TNLN

TFTC Chrisval7 your cache Cambrai Silo Views that we found today. We are in Mannum waiting for the geo-vehicle to undergo some repairs. Meandde offered to take us to Sedan to complete the FireHelmet geo-art. An offer gladly accepted. After a couple of hours the geo-art was completed. After a stop in Sedan to catch up with Wollaston, Honeysucker and DiMorgan we were chauffeured back to our car , which was now ready to be picked up, but not before doing some caches along the road home.Find Count: 18734

This Sunday, I and J plus the little one visited the Dark Sky Reserve to watch stars, and we found some caches on the way. We tried 17 caches, found 14 caches, including traditional caches, mystery cache, multi cache, and Adventure Lab caches.
This was the last find for today.
I spotted a container at GZ, but it turned out it's not the cache.
Revealed the hint, and found the cache straight away.
Signed the log, and hid it back.
Thanks for the cache, Chrisval7.

We felt really self-conscious looking for this cache. Aborted our first look as it didn't feel right.

Hi there Chrisval7.

We found your cache **"Cambrai Silo Views"** today. (This makes our find count 22077).

Today we headed out from Mount Pleasant to attempt the BMT series - but we also had to find this one. As it's not part of the series it deserves a finely crafted log, not one of the crappy cut-n-paste ones that usually are associated with power trails.

We found 36 caches today & DNF'd 0. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Out on the 5 day geocaching in the Blanchetown region and today I ventured down to Sedan rambrai and the back to Swan Reach and back to base on the eastern side of the Murray. I found 24 in todays run including 2 PT's close to Sedan. Most caches found were in Good nick but some of the PT ones were cracked and broken and could do with some attention. Have found a few these caches now it is a shame that the near by building that the caches refer to have been leftto ruin. Some times the hin't grab's me it when the appear tomake no sence until you arrive at the GZ this one was like that. TFTC

Out of town for the weekend to invigorate myself. Taking the slow trip to stay at a mate’s house at Monash.

Rather overcast but warm. Great weather for geocaching.

When I drove up, I thought I knew where it would be but soon had to look elsewhere.

Lots of cars going by so I assume there’s a game of cricket on at the oval today.

TFTC Chrisval7 Big Grin Thank you for bringing me to this location.

Suscoe headed out this morning for another adventure on our caching trip with Phetlern.
It was a cold and cloudy start to the day when we headed out and the clouds continued for most of the day until late afternoon when some sunshine finally broke through.
Our trip today took us to the south east of the Barossa Valley and out onto the plains country between the Adelaide hills and the Murray River.
We found a range of traditional, a few multi’s and some puzzles on a trail which included the OTD June series, the OTD September puzzles, the OTD March trail and the BMT trail which ended near to Cambrai. A few DNF’s were made along the DMT trail.
We arrived back into Nuriootpa late in the day after a terrific time gathering finds.
Thanks to Chrisval7 for placing your cache, we enjoyed another terrific day of caching in South Australia.

Travelling around Australia.

Back in SA for a few weeks and loving it already. Magnificent weather that has been turned on for us.

Up early this morning to go to the Dawn Service, back at home, we checked out nearby caches,packed some lunch and set off for a days outing. [^]

Well a full on day we had. How do they say [?] When in Rome ........ Well when in the Australian Power Trail State do some Power trails [:o)] Razz

Of course we looped in a few extra caches as we passed by and this was one.

So sure enough a big day out for us and we arrived home exhausted and with 81smilies our reward.

Yep, you can certainly see the Silos from this spot!

Out and about with Ozibags today where we enjoyed a beautiful country drive [^] on a gorgeous day [^] whilst having fun (gotta love lots of silly talk and laughter) WinkBig Grin [^] and picking up a few caches [^].

Not only did we have an awesome day, but we also had a few unexpected adventures.......including almost managing to get shot at Surprised [xx(] by a very scary angry muggle who clearly had a few issues (which also meant at least one of the caches we found will likely need archiving).....I do wonder what may have been cultivating on that property [?] [:(!].......but before we knew how our day was going to unfold, this was one of our stops Cool

Thanks for the cache Chrisval7 Smile

We had a fanstanic day and found lots of caches.
This ine was found on a power pole and we moved it away from the pole and put it under a brick.
If I find evidence that it has been returned to the power pole then it will nhave to be archived.
