Found with Liz and Bruce on a good day for caching. Another nice quick find thanks igc3.
We ventured to Nelson this morning with Alansee to do some of the caches which we knew we would enjoy in this scenic location and we were not disappointed. We encountered emus and kangaroos on the forest tracks but luckily not too close up We found a variety of hides and thanks to jgc3 for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.
drove down from Gorgeous Glenelg View to do a round trip around the forest and found the road turned into a puddle ( see pic ) unable to pass with 2wd, so did a u turn and started doing this side from BLE60... It can be Christmas all year
Found 4/11/16 @ 3.38 PM.
We came from the highway and up Forest track for this section of caches. Wildlife central around here with an emu racing alongside us for a couple of hundred metres, a few kangaroos bouncing out and an evhidna crossing.
Caches were all found easily and in good (dry) condition.
Thanks jgc3 for the series.

Our last day at Mount Gambier, before heading east, to catch up with muggle friends.
After lunch, we drove south to Nelson for some sightseeing and caching.
Lots of nice country to drive through, and we found a good variety of hides.
Cache was located after a short search, signed and replaced as found.
Many thanks for placing this cache, jgc3, for us and others to find.

We are on a mission to knock over the caches on this track this morning before our driver/geopartner decides he has had enough:) It was lovely to cruise along here in perfect weather and stop for caches every so often. The caches were all in excellent condition, many thanks for the hunt this morning!

Finding some more Nelson caches on the last day of the trip before going home. Thanks jgc3.
After having tea with fellow cachers, Geomum & Geodad decided the night before that we would head out & have a family caching day today. We had saved a fair few into our phones for the day. This was the 12th one on our list. We had done a few of these not that long ago but only got so far & had no service so we are back. TFTC
Out geocaching with the extended family (Coongie) this afternoon while staying in Nelson. Quick find, TFTC.
Came to do part of the Great South West Walk and these caches were nearby our overnight stay. Had a bit of spare time to fill and what better way than picking up a few caches! TNLN TFTC
Cache found on the Joy of SECS tour with four-fun, Freddo, thewhitedoggang and Team Waldron. There were a stack of boxes to find so we pushed on. We even had a quick round of Mountopoly and a couple of Powertrails to add to the fun. The weather was cool and sometimes icy so wet boots were the order of the day.
Thanks to jgc3 and clear skies from TeamAstro.
A 3 day caching expedition with Freddo, Astro, WhiteDogGang an Four Fun.
Apologies for the generic log but we did a few trails and some of the Mountopoly series. We also did most of the BLE series.
The mozzies were full on at times and it rained most of the first day.

After not having any internet for nearly two years I am finally getting around to logging some caches that I did with Team Crackers a long time back.
We completed quite a few BLE caches back in 11-8-13 and I cannot remember them all now so apologies to the cache owner for the cut and paste log.
I am working off Team Crackers list for that day.
Many thanks for the fun Day

We were out with Super Pop collecting some of the BLE caches and it took a bit longer than expected to wiggle through the pine forest to get here. We stopped near GZ and started our search to come up empty handed. We decoded the clue and it seemed we were in the right location as the rocks were there but no container. We were about to call it a DNF when Diane spotted something and on investigation she found the container about 8mts away just laying on the side of the road. Not sure if it was all the rain or an animal that dislodged it but it is now firmly back where it should be still in good condition.
Thanks once more jgc3 we will stay tuned for when you publish Rocky Balboa geocache in approx. 20 years!!

In the Mount for the Goths dinner event and the Geozing Race and of course...caching Out for the afternoon with Aussie M&M and Mogni.
Missed the BLE event but picking up a few of the caches this afternoon. Generic logs but thanks to jgc3 for the series. Hope I can finish them next time I am in this neck of the woods.

Great, found the elusive BLE32. The road was long, the track non existent. Luckily we found a better road and found quite a few BLE caches. TFTSeries.
Out with Aussie M & M and brisal5. Slowing finding all of these caches... one day I will be finished
Thanks
Thanks
Another quick find, all caches have been great today, one or two had me looking for a little longer than they should have, I have truly loved this track and the hides, it is such a beautiful area, we are very lucky it is our playgrounds. Thanks so much for the hides JGC3 and the time it would of taken to get them out, and for bringing people here to see it. I have had a wonderful afternoon Geocaching on our Mum's day. Happy Mothers Day to all Mums TFTC! some random pics of today coming
Is one month today since this log was signed guessing round the same time too! Thanks for the rocks
And the final one in the run on this road, thanks for the hides.

Our plan for the day was to grab a least 20 of the BLE caches and go wet a line and hopefully land a fish or two. After lunch at the Nelson Kiosk the kids decided they'd rather go shopping in Mount Gambier than fishing in the river. As a result our tally ended up a couple short for the day. This was the first of 18 finds for the day.
None of the 5 rocks were on the cache when found.

Aha, so If went the other way! I thought about continuing on the road to see where it went, but when the next sign said 13 km in that direction and 8 back to Nelson, I turned tail and headed back the way I had come. One of the rocks had slipped away, so I put him back to keep the theme going! Rocky the End, or is it?! Someone mentioned in another log that this is a bit of a powertrail. Well it is much nicer doing something like this in the park than a powertrail along road with cars whizzing past. Thank you for the effort you've put in creating this trail for us to follow! Cache #1,490. My favourite point stands for the whole track along this way. Cache #1,491
Monday at BLE and after packing up, Dennisc52 and I left the campsite and parked his car. Well, mine was already dusty and dirty and his was still clean
Dennisc52 and I managed to achieve locus cache 25 times before we parted company and took separate routes back to Adelaide.
However I hung around Nelson for a bit longer and so, by the time that I stopped at Millicent for the night, I had gathered up another 19 locus cache smileys (with 1 DNF ), making this a 45 cache day [^]
Many of the caches along this trail were picked up by Dennisc52 as they were on his side of the car so I apologise that I cannot remember them all individually However I did love the names for these caches
Especially these five We were Rocky and invincible as we had finally just completed the trail on this road.

Found this neat cache during BIG little EVENT. Our thanks go out to all involved in the event and to all who have placed caches for the event.
Our apologize for the late logs, and the boilplate plate logs.
Due to events happening in our lives just after the event, the logging had to be put on hold until now.
We had a fantastic time, met some new caches and even bumped into a few old ones from afar.
Many, many thanks to all involved.

#3526 Was there a Rocky V movie? Don't know as we had well and truly lost interest by that stage - even though we both worked at a drive-in . Yet another well concealed container was located in excellent condition. We really enjoyed our run out on this road with LoMo&Co but it was now time to find some lunch. The cache was again found to be well hidden and in great condition. Thanks for the drive in a great part of the work jgc3, we were glad it was such nice weather to do this series.

Found on the first day of the BLE on my Glenelg Drive run, after leaving the rest of the team at the campsite. Well out of phone range for this last cache, I decided to deploy a munzee out here, which was only captured once for the rest of the event - and most of the others were captured at least 10 times. It's kind of sitting out on its own now on the map! Following this I had to decide whether to turn back or go on. I went on, hoping to find a way back down to the highway but ended up having to go all the way through to the Dartmoor Rd, not being sure if my 2WD car would take the rough tracks in between. A nice enough drive but a little stressful as I had to be back for dinner at 6:30pm! Good view of the river along the way though. Thanks for the cache.
Yo Paulie!
Found on our BIG Little Event trip. The final easy find along this road. LOVE Rocky! TNLN. TFTC!
