Don't think this one is here , perhaps it has fallen
 
28-Nov-20
Did not find, found a pencil on the ground... could this be missing?
 
11-Oct-20
Damn! It was one of those days when you feel confident grabbing the blighter but putting it back is another deal. Waited for muggles to disperse and put it back. TFTC what a piece of art!

Day 1 of our Eyre Peninsula caravan odyssey with the geo-pup.

Staying at the Beautiful Hummocks station at Snowtown (highly recommend it) we ducked out to explore the local region using geocaching as a guide. Some great history and vistas explored today.

With restrictions about to ease even further, I think we can safely enable our caches for people to start finding again. Please remember to practice safe hygiene measures while out an about, remain safe and most importantly, have fun.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Cheers and Happy Hunting

Hello everyone, in these terrible times and with the current government directive for people to stay at home unless it’s essential. We’ve made a decision to take our caches off-line to stop temptation and encourage people to stay home. If this goes longer than the allowable 2 weeks period and geocaching hq decide to archive them, then so be it. But let’s hope this is over as soon as possible with as little damage as possible, so we can all get on with our lives this great game in the conditions we are accustomed to.

Cheers and stay safe and healthy,
Shame and Josie

first time i past this point and it hasn't had a muggle parked besides it. quick find.
Day 1
Adelaide to port Augusta.
This trip saw me travel to Maralinga to do the tour of the nuclear test site then up the Googs track, past lake Gairdner on to Mount Ive station, then in to the Gawler Rangers and finally hiking up Mount Remarkable before heading home.

We cringed as we walked towards this object, assuming that we would be in for a long hunt. However, due a cache size larger than expected, the cache was located quite quickly. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Shane & Andrew for the cache.
 
05-Apr-19
We soon located this cache once at Ground Zero. We signed the log book and then replaced as found. Thanks so much for the cache and greetings from Zimbabwe

I think it’s the thing that makes the wheels turn. Ha. Actually I have no idea what the diff is. But I do know what a cache is. TFTC

After a relaxing holiday in Spear Creek we decided to find some caches on our way home, much to the chagrin of our non-geocaching kids, chalk one up to the oldies! TFTC.
 
22-Jul-18
Found on our way back from a family holiday at Spear Creek. Shame the shop was closed, we were thirsty.
 
20-Jul-18
On our way north picking up Caches inbetween. Thanks
 
09-Jul-18
Found this one in the first place I checked. The cache was in very good condition and was not the difficult find we were expecting when we pulled up.
Unfortunately the nearby establishment was closed today.
Thanks.

16-Apr-18
Found at 3:58 PM GAFF3.
I had an idea, but we were being watched so just had to go for the hint.
Looked at the rear end because we thought that is where it should be hidden, but no - it was not!
There was a Trash & Treasure sale at the nearby hall - but we could not bring ourselves to pick up any trash from the locals.
Thanks Southern Cross Caching.

Found it, but way too busy to retrieve. Love the food from here!!
 
01-Oct-17
Ironical. Returning to Adelaide via Lockiel after attending a memorial service at Jamestown I noticed the cache has been replaced after I had most probably dropped it into the abyss on 13 July. Muggle husband kindly stopped & I was thrilled to quickly locate the cache. Tftc

Found on a long weekend caching adventure with Larayugal. TFTC

Good to go, cache back underneath base where it was intended to be. This should avoid further mishaps
 
11-Sep-17
Didn't spend a lot of time due to previous log.
 
I'll check in a couple of weeks when I next go past. It appears it may need retreaval
 
13-Jul-17
Put my fingers along the diff & something dislodged & fell into the abyss. Thinking it was the cache. Sorry you may need to check.

Nice little spot

No diff only a sneaky cache! TFTC [:-)]

Met up with GoodLook and Micaparamedic at Port Wakefield with the primary aim of tackling the Postman Pat's Mailroad Trail of Letterbox hybrids and anything else along the way, with a combination of dirt roads and bumpy 4WD tracks. Typically completed the series in reverse order, logging the caches under the 'Global' stamp. Many thanks for the series equipe de cinq, and to all the other CO's that made for an eventful and fun afternoon!

Travelling to the Red Centre Experience in Alice Springs in a mini convoy with Shandyk. Stopped to stretch legs and break up the long trip from the Barossa & Craigmore. Shandyk had attempted this one before at its previous location without luck. Thistime was a reasonable quick find. Gorgeous vies of the sunrise over the Lake...TFTC

Found on the way to Alice Springs mega in a mini convoy with SnappyTomCats. Was nice to get out and stretch the legs. TFTC
 
09-Apr-17
We are heading to Alice Springs for the Red Centre event stopping and finding a few caches along the way.
We didn't find the previous cache here so we decided that we really should get this one. We pulled up to find a few cars around getting coffee's etc so we decoded the hint to try and make this a quick find. Unfortunately that wasn't to be, we searched where the cache should have been with no luck so we decided to drown our sorrows with a coffee.
Inside the talk somehow got to geocaching and the girls laughed when we couldn't find it and took us out and pointed to the obvious hide which unfortunately didn't match the hint at all anymore.
Thanks Southern Cross Caching for showing us this sculpture that some one has put a lot of work into.

Found with Hearse068 while in the area. We are heading to Alice Springs and doing as many caches along the way, this is one we stopped at. Day 3 of our trip having loads of fun travelling around this state. Thank you for placing this cache for us to find. cool sculpture

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Was heading north for work and it was time for morning tea. Stopped out the front and guess what, there was a cache. Admired the artwork and found a cache. Wandered into the shop and got a great thai green curry pie and a coffee. Sat back down by the artwork, signed the log while munching on the pie and replaced the cache in its hide. Great stop. Nice morning tea and a smiley to boot. Great.

Finally back on the road again and getting back into a bit of caching. Spending a couple of weeks in Wallaroo and decided to head towards the Letterbox Mail Run while grabbing any caches along the way we had missed on a previous visit.

Catching up with some late logs, therefore this unfortunately is going to be one of 'those logs'. I apologize in advance for the generic log, A combination of limited time and too many to log dictates that a generic log is best. I have enjoyed the hunt and being outdoors in this great country of ours, partaking in a pastime that I thoroughly enjoy. I usually head out by myself, but I thank those that have had the misfortune of my company in some of these ventures.

Thanks Southern Cross Caching for placing this cache.

There were two fields of view as to where this one was hidden. One was right, fortunately.

Find #7304**

Day two of the Nullarbor experience was here. I again joined the convoy of Alansee, Maccamob and Mica Paramedic for another day of fun, heading for Port Augusta, then I would do my own thing for a few days before joining them again in Esperance. Today, we would drive from Murray Bridge, to Port Augusta via Gawler, just over 380km of driving. We would log our finds as MAAM, AMMA, AMAM or some other combination of those 4 letters.

Stopped in along the way to pick up this cache, a cool sculpture Smile

**Thanks to Shane & Andrew for the cache. TNLN**

Traveling to Wilpena for a weekend of orienteering and looking for a stop and a chance to stretch of the legs. What better way than to search for a cache? A quick find and sign.

Thanks for the cache Shane and Andrew.

This was my first cache today, and it was certainly an ultra quick and easy one to locate.

The coordinates were spot on and yes, it is on THAT piece of art work, under one of the sections, the eclipse tin is rusted and the magnet is SUPER strong so was difficult to detach it.

Today this location was full of muggles, but it kind of made the find easier as we blended in. [:o)] Razz

Found whilst on a fabulous Easter long weekend caching trip with CPwanderer traveling from Adelaide to the Eyre Peninsular. Our day has been filled with lots of fun, laughter, adventures, driving along dirt tracks with heaps of corrugations, and even searching for somewhere open for us to buy dinner on Good Friday.....an almost impossible task!

Thanks for the cache Shane & Andrew! Smile
