Good walk with kids awesome views but think this one may of washed away with the tide aswell
DNF today. Day 13 of our SA holiday. Time for Robmc and me to visit historic Wallaroo and see if we can find some caches. Well yes we did, and a few DNF's before we got wise and went to get lunch. Lunch-time was the time to check every potential unfound cache and see whether they were worth visiting or whether they were missing. Well, that narrowed things down a bit. And still we were unsuccessful at some. We must try harder.
Rode to this place and Rob searched and came up empty handed. Then I read the logs and realised it has not been found for 12 months (since March 2016) - DESPITE the Found It log from someone who has been logging missing caches. Time for maintenance, or archiving.

After finding 2 other caches nearby I was feeling pumped and decided to walk up to this one. Sadly the previous cachers were right - it is pretty obvious where it should be but there is no longer a cache there.
*none*
Did Not Find this cache looked high and low, however it alluded us today.

Had a good look for this one, and found where it should most likely have been, but alas the cache was awol. Not sure if the recent storm has blown it away.
On this occassion, I am doing a generic log. I have travelled from Queensland to meet up with Muff1 for a Geocaching extravaganza on the beautiful Yorke Peninsular.
Our goal to Cache, Cache and Cache. Each day our "finds" have been growing in number, some days more productive then others. Repairs and replacement of broken containers, new log books and adding a new plastic bag here and there have all been part of the fun we have been having.
We have also been careful to take time to appreciate the natural wonder of the areas we have visited. The variety of caches was interesting, some very clever, some the quick grab they were designed to be.
My sincere thanks to Muff1 for providing me with the opportunity to join them on this geocaching holiday.
A big thank you to all of the dedicated Cache placers who have made this possible.

At this cache we found the obvious indent but no container. As Speedmistress travells well supplied with replacement this and replacement that we replaced the cache. We hope that is OK with you.
First we must appologise for the generic logs.
We came to Yorke Peninsular with Speedmistress who hails from Queensland to cache our little hearts out and this we are doing.
We solved loads of puzzles prior to coming and with all the earth, multi, trads and puzzles there are here we were never lacking in variety.
When we found caches that needed repair we have done our best to do what was possible, unfortunately we have now rum out of spare containers, so no more repairs can be done. We have enjoyed the scenery, the walks, the animal life and the challenges that was encountered while traveling the Peninsular. Not all the caches have been attempted due to time restraints but those have been earmarked for future visits.
We also would like to thank Speedmistress for supplying our geocaching chariot.
A huge thanks to all the cache owners for placing these caches for us to enjoy.

Hi there Margieh.
We found your cache **"Wallaroo Bay"** at 12:54:00 PM today.
This was our 8th find for the day and this makes our find count 13015.
Our cache run today was a trip into Wallaroo via the back roads. The evolving plan was to meet up with the Hurtling Posties and Lilysue to munch our way through a splendid afternoon tea; followed by a splendid beach sunset and BBQ tea before stumbling around in the bushes attempting a night cache. Of course there were many daylight hours to fill in with caches along the way as well. At the end of the day (somewhere close to midnight) our final total was 8 finds and 0 DNF's.
We had to wait for a while here, a pair of muggles parked in the shade of the tree and proceeded to eat their lunch. (So we parked nearby and ate ours).
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** Container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Found on a beautiful day caching around Wallaroo. Enjoyed an early (and very large) breakfast at a local cafe
and then spent a couple more hours making some finds around the area
There was a muggle parked in his vehicle nearby but we were able to place the geomobile to give us god cov while we made the find and signed the log.
Many thanks for the hide Margieh[^]

#2427 - Found easily by Marg on what is now a sunny day, on a bike ride from Port Broughton today.
All part of the fun and challenges on our AroundOz bicycle tour via the highest peak in each State and mainland Territory.

Many thanks to the cache owner Margieh for establishing and maintaining another local cache.

Found while walking with friends. Nearby was a car where people were getting a little "frisky". Got the cache and got out of there! TFTC Great spring day for it!
Glad we came to this find this cache so early in the morning. The bay was as calm as --- just beautiful.
Found it with CherryRose on our 7th day of our 10 days of caching fun on Yorke Peninsula and the Barossa Valley. Easy find with TMANN421 again. TFTC TNLNSL.
Scary weather coming in as we did this cache. Still love broody views. Thanks Margieh.
Starting to get windy here ! But even the weather can't stop the beautiful view from this place. TFTFun
The weather was starting to get very inclement and the intrepid trio were considering moving to sunnier climes. This is probably a nice view on better days, but today it was just a smilie.
The presence of muggle nearby added a new dimension to this one, but they appeared totally disinterested in us and our activity, so it ended up being an easy find. Thanks Margieh

Out on a lovely day for caching. Thought we would have trouble with muggles parked at GZ but they were facing the other way and didn't take any notice of us.
Thanks for the cache Margieh.
Thanks for the cache Margieh.

Thanks again margieh for another of your caches here today, nice hide and find
Thanks again margieh for another of your caches here today, nice hide and find
Day 6 into my epic road journey with the bogonghazy's had us heading north to Wallaroo and picking up a swag of caches along the way.
Admired the views whilst BH signed the log. Thanks Margieh

No muggles today. Muggle distraction technique #42. Cache on a day when the temperature is 42C.

After a thorough inspection of the area the cache was found in a reasonably timely fashion. Gorgeous views. TFTC.
The rare weekend without kids meant we could do a little caching again Thankyou
Loved this one. I wanted to get down into the rock pools but the arthritis wasn't going to let me. Found with the Hero Husband (Moneydork) on a weekend away. Thanks.
The usual gathering of muggles with nothing better to do with their day, than sit in their cars staring out to sea, were gathered nearby
But I had a pushbike, so was invisible
A quick and easy find
TFTC and views out across the bay !!

Spotted this one as we pulled up.
Love the retaining wall on the nearby house. Makes it look like a castle.
Thanks.

Day four with Alansee and Micaparamedic we were now based in Wallaroo for another three days of caching fun
We agree that there are great views of the bay from gz but it must have been a quiet time as we didn't see any ships at the nearby jetty nor were there any muggles enjoying the scenery with us making this another nice quick find and sign,
To save room in the logs we signed as M.A.C.( Micaparamedic Alansee and Team Crackers).
Thanks for the cache
On a caching assault of the Yorke Peninsular with alansee and Team Crackers over the last six days. We have found many caches which have proven enjoyable and sometimes challenging Alansee had worked diligently in planning routes we would take to minimize wasted kilometres driven to find the numbers we have been able to do. Most logs have been signed as MAC (micaparamedic, alansee and crackers)
Many thanks Margieh for placing this cache

.Found with Team Crackers and Micaparamedic. We were wondering if we were going to have to go for a short scramble but we didn't.
Found as a part of TheKellyGang, writing this as a genaric log as I was a part of TheKellyGang and am now out on my own.
If you do not agree with this you are more than welcome to delete the log.
