By brisal5 on 07-Mar-13. Waypoint GC477BP

A quick find for us today. Thank u for bringing us to this spot - will certainly come back with geodog for a run! Tftc.

Da fence lol Cache caught my eye straight up,TFTC

Nice day. Why not do some easy ones on the way to mt barker nice and easy S/L TFTC

Tftc very sneaky

Found

I think I found it, however it was absolutely swarming with ants! Will return another day with a TOTT or when the ants are gone! TFTC

Quickly found but then I had to go back to the car to fashion a TOTT to retrieve it (worked a treat)Nice hide, gets a favourite point from meTFTC

Out for a little adventure tonight with Kapybeara and our geo-dog. The geo-dog was too busy sniffing to find the cache, if there had been water I'm sure he would have gone in. TFTC

With an increasing number of days with good weather as summer approaches, I have been making an effort to get out and cache more often. Along with this, an effort has also been made to head out to areas where I have either not cached before, or not cached in a long time, in an effort to clear out more of my map. With this in mind, todays plan was to spend the day caching in, and around, the Nairne area. Having stopped at a bakery for lunch, I started making my way around the backstreets picking up caches. Having parked reasonably close to the cache, and made the sort walk to Ground Zero, I soon had the cache in hand. The log was signed, the cache replaced, and I was on my way.Find #8067, at 02:57 pmTFTC

Nice and sneaky!

Good spot thankyou.

Sneaky!!

Would be a nice spot to live, TFTC

Easy find, thank you. Still a few ants around but the interior is in good condition.

Tftc great weather, nice spring day time for some exploring

Quick find on a quiet afternoon. TFTC. Found by Cache in the Hat

Staying in Mt Barker for the long weekend with iluvtrekking so out n about grabbing some finds. Loving the countryside - our kind of caching. Thanks brisal5

Another cache found with richlink during our 2022 South Australian Adventure.

Today found us were discovering the delights of Mr Barker and surrounding countryside. Thanks to all the CO for placing these caches

After a second try, was quickly found

Thank you brisal5 for a nice quick find.

Lots of ants were guarding this cache! A clever set up. Initially tried opening the wrong end! a favourite!

A quick find.

Neat hide.

TFTC

After heading to the wrong side (gps was playing up a bit), it was quickly located with Tigtog08. Once the ants were removed the log was signed and off we went to the next cache. Tftc

After a bit of a caching hiatus for January (not sure why just had other stuff on) decided to head out today for a caching day in the hills.
It wasn’t your typical January day by any stretch and spent most of the day dodging rain showers and ducks (kamikaze s everywhere). But at least there were no snakes and no sunburn.
I had about 30 caches on my list I had to ditch some of the ones that involved a walk due to the rain so will have to head back to do them another time.
Had a lovely day out and found 25 caches, I seemed to visit lots of churches and tennis courts!!
Thanks to all the hiders for the fun caches o really enjoyed my day out just what the Dr ordered.
Tidy hide here very nice. TFTC Brisal5

A nice hide to find before heading into the park without a dog today. TFTC

Staying with friends nearby and enjoying exploring the area . This was one we targeted and found. Thanks a tidy hide. Fav point

Took way too long, but found it with my 4yo son's help

Found

Found in 5 seconds after not finding for 45 minutes last time. Should have know it had gone missing!

I was in the area today with Geopup Douglas and found this one while geo pup was having a run about, cache and log in good condition. TYFTC

Checked this on our morning walk and was surprised that the camo was in place with no cache. Cache has been replaced now and ready to be found.

May have to try again

This ones a challenge, another hunt required

A dewey but sunny morning, and there was a man out walking two dogs....

Thanks for placing!

This hide reminds me of the 1st ever Geocache. Nice one, sneaky hide

SL at 12:23 on Thursday 30 July 2020.
All is in A1 condition with the cache and logbook.

TFTC brisal5

Nice

Clever hide. My geocache kids and I are getting better at this. Hint is helpful.

Thanks for the dog waterhole cache Brisal. Nice quick find

Its a hard one

Nice little hide. Thanks for the hint

In the first place i looked. Very sneakyninja. TFTC

Yesterday while speaking to brisal5, he mentioned a walk along the Amy Gillett bikeway between Charleston and Woodside and as I hadn't done many of those caches, I asked to join him[?][^]
Rex and I had a sad drive through the Cudlee Creek, Gorge Rd and Lobethal area to Woodside as we saw how much damage had been done by the fires [xx(] along one of my most travelled motorobike ride routes and it sure does not look like it used to [xx(]
During the walk with brisal5 he replaced 7 out of 11 geocaches as they had been burned! [xx(][^][:X]

By the end of the day I had 22 smileys from 1 attended Welcome TDU Cachers 2020 event and 21 cache finds. Sadly there was also 2 DNFs as a result of the bushfire in the area [xx(]
Although that was really 3 DNFs but 1 was my own cache and Mogni kindly [:X] gave me a spare container so that I could replace my burnt Creek Views cache [^]
I also managed to finally find 2 previous DNFs and so that made me smile even more [^]

What a misleading name!
Poor Rex had to drop to his knees to even find a lick of water to drink as there was no water body large enough to lay in
The cache was found though

TNLN. SL. TFTC brisal5

Found, nice little hide

What a great hide! Very sneaky and not what I expected TFTC

Sneaky, took us ages

With an excessively rainy day the day before, jesswrigley and I decided to do a bit of geocaching around Littlehampton and Nairne. It was a cold and at times, wet day, but we think we timed our outside activities right in between spells of rain. We did a small walk around the dam at Totness Recreation Park, collected various geocaches around Littlehampton, and then headed to Nairne to see some of the murals, before calling it day before we were able to complete that respective multi-cache.

I was excited to see this one, and wondered if the CO's house was around the corner from here. No dogs spotted, but fortunately some good news as I found the cache within a minute of being at GZ. A clever little hide, and thankfully I had seen something like this one before. Cheers brisal5 for a well hidden cache.

Tricky find on our wet and windy day caching around the hills!

Maybe next time

Found this quickly and with a grin! Was in the area when a previous finder was on an errand and had a chat so I went for a walk with the dog!! Loved the camo with a slight difference!! TYFTC SLTNLN

Good spot

That time of the week again, the menagerie of puzzled animal's Wednesday wanderings. Today with one of the troupe missing due to Husband duties it left the Rat, Korf an Adder to seek the elusive hides. The target today was Nairne and Mount Barker. We suggested calling in for a coffee with our missing member of the group but Mrs. Sewer Rat thought it not a good idea as poor Mrs. Brisal would probably not enjoy the company.

Another that only the Adder needed to find. He was looking in the right place but kept missing the sneaky hide, probably because he expected something different. Needed a little help from a previous finder on board. "yes I saw that but........" Der.

After a weekend at the State Training Centre, time for some caches on the way home. TFTC

Our GPS took us to a location where there was something interesting. On investigation we retrieved a very well planned, designed and placed cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks brisal5 for the cache - it earns a favourite from us.

Had talked to gridge98 at an event during the week and he asked me if I wanted to go caching on Friday and as I had nothing else to do I said yes. It's always good to go caching rather than sitting at home doing other less interesting things. [^] We decided to meet in Stirling and cache around the hills as we both had plenty of caches that we hadn't found.

This one could have taken much longer, but my mojo must have been good here as I found the hide pretty much straight away...cool.

Thanks for the cache brisal5.

A very clever hide, JJ52 made the find.

A quick discussion the other night on a caching day out with @JJ52 for today, we decided to go up into the hills as we both had quite a few to find. A great day out in some areas I had never been, we cached around Uraidla, Oakbank and Nairne. A total of 44 finds and 2 did not finds for the day. Thanks to the Cache owners for their placements.

Thanks for the cache.

What a great hide. Took 2 attempts well done

We were on our way to Sunday lunch and a walk in the Hills and decided to pick up a few caches on the way. Luckily there were no dogs around when we were here because it took us a while to find this clever hide. I would give it a favourite point if I had any. TFTC

A clever hide. Found with steamer531. TFTC

Having great fun discovering new locations around Nairne with upsanddowns.
A sneaky hide.

New favourite. Thats an awesome cache spot. Opens my eyes to micro possibilities. Tyftc.

Another brisal5 cache found. And a bit of a sneaky one! TFTC

Had been down further south on a FTF hunt and found this on the drive home. Nice hide, took me longer than I care to admit but I did have a wandering GPSr as an excuse.
Thanks for the cache brisal5

Very clever cache. TFTC.

Such a clever hide! TFTC!

I found it straight away. Phew... Great effort gone into the cache. Fav point from me.

Thanks brisal5 for the cache

this one took longer than it should have.
Mrs rat found the sneaky little blighter. tftc

Almost gave up when we found it.tftc

A quick detour on my way to a friends house over at Kanmantoo saw me do a few caches in the area. This one was found in the first spot I looked! No activity on the skate ramp up the road.

Thanks to brisal5 and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

Out and about doing some caching with sir_spectre and Rod81w. Grabbing caches along the way to complete some multi's that we had previously started.
TFTC

Out with Getnict and Sir_Spectre for a days caching.

Quick find in the torrential downpour seen a few of these cunning hides

found it with getnict and rod81w. It's raining and when that getting boring it pours down. Quick find for me still, as I got my hands on it quickly since I have seen this before.

Tftc nice find

Found on an Easter Extravaganza family tradition race day! TFTC #teamheadbandz

A nice little park here in a nice area. Really hope this area doesn't become houses as a lot of prime farmland is destroyed. TNLN. Cheers.

Very clever, love it, took us a bit

Fantastic hide! Nice park too. TNLNSL TFTC

What a great hide! Very well camouflaged. TFTC

Nice little hiding hole.

Clever!

Cheers Brisal

Thanks to a conversation with Brisal5 we are slowly learning a little more about GSAK. While playing with that it showed us that we had not logged this cache, along with the information that we had double logged a few caches. Gosh we have not done as many caches as we thought. Does this mean that we have to cache harder to cache up?

Thanks for looking after us for a couple of days, in this time we found many caches. It was great to hear the story about the trees that were planted by you and your family that are growing so well in the park, what a lovely memory for you to be able to pass onto others. SL TFTC

This one nearly got the better of us, but eventually found the sneaky little critter.
TNLNSL TFTC brisal5!

Checked today. All Good.

I was at Nairne for an ingress event with Southern Cross caching and managed to pick up a a few caches before heading home.

This was a clever little hide. TFTC brisal5

Find # 2781 @ 1811 H

Over in SA for the TDU and once again Mount Barker is our base for the week.
Seeing that it was so hot today it put a change to our plans, but as it cooled down we decided to head over the big road into Nairne and turn some icons into Smileys.

I was a little iffy about this cache so we passé by it initially but upon returning form the bush Mrs Tyred n Cranky said "we might as well get it" so off we went. a Quick find with great cords as we, Mr Tyred n Cranky and myself had it found before Mrs Tyred n Cranky had gotten out of the van

Find No. 1247. Found with FUF009 at 6.11pm.

Being from Central Victoria we are spending the week in Mount Barker for the Tour Down Under Bicycle Event. As today was a rest day for the riders we went for a drive into Nairne to grab a few caches.

Another quick easy find as we are caching our way around Nairne.
