Found this one a while ago, could never log it on my phone, so I forgot about it.
This was a really cute cache, a few too many spiders for my partner though!
TFTC!

Warm day for a pleasant walk with geodog. Container broken in many places....beyond repair, not long before items will start to fall out, needs maintenance ASAP.

3 of us in the tree but spent most of the time making sure 5yo didnt fall out!
Man! I have never seen so many creepy crawlies in one cache as this one [:o]!
Upon discovery of this cool cache, but to the much-disgruntlement of lots of evicted insects, i made the find and sign, {much to their intense disapproval} at 11:22 on the gorgeous sunny day of Saturday the 27th of June 2020 [^]
The cache and contents [insects not included] are in A1 condition [^]

(There was this lovely example of a Juvenile "Banded Huntsman-Spider" {black and white markings on the inside of it's front legs} that was most annoyed by the myriad of two-tone coloured ants literally everywhere, see picture included)

So this was a fairly full-on solo geocaching day for me today, and I wanted to make the most of the terrific weather that had the right temperature, sun out and blue sky. The plan was to head south to tackle some of the power trails / series, and for the most part, that was achieved. My day started at Seaford, and then it was a run along the creek finding the *Real Aliens* series. I then diverted towards the ocean, to find a nemesis oldie and enjoy a run along Moana's cliffs. A selection of the *Cats and Dogs* series were detoured past, before a break at Aldinga's bakery. Next was the *Forty Winks* series, and then back towards the ocean to enjoy a few caches at Sellicks Beach. It was getting to late afternoon by the time I drove through Myponga, and targeted a few hiking geocaches around there, and back towards Sellicks Hill. By this time, it was dark, and so made my way home, having utilised this great weather as best as I could.
Kityaparri Pedler Creek Reserve here was great! I really enjoyed this location, and there were a few runners and dog walkers about the creek and lakes! I wish I had left these geocaches to bring my partner to the area, but never mind.
My second cache as I crossed the creek, and ran along the trails. I managed to make a wide-angle U-turn, and found the interesting tree feature bordering the creek. A really pretty location to bring people to, and furthermore, a large-sized cache! Unfortunately, the cache inner container was fully exposed, and had been disassembled from its outer shell. Odd. The cache container and logbook were in good shape nevertheless. I placed the logbook into its plastic bag, and then assembled everything back together, with no damage or issues noted. Thanks day-trippers for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

We found this cache about five years ago but visited again today as we were walking in the area & had a few travel bugs we wanted to drop off.
This is a great cache & a great concept it's just a pity that it has now fallen off its perch & is sitting on the ground. Reading previous logs it appears that it's been on the ground for a couple of years. I'm amazed that it hasn't been mugged. It would be great to see the cache owner (or someone else) restore it to its original lofty position up the tree.

Thanks for the hide. Good idea. Nice cameo. Found at ground level. Hidden well unseen from path.
Finally a weekend with the sun shinning. I grabbed the GPS and Debandy and headed out for a spot of geocaching.
Thanks for the cache!

Yay. Found it. Another fun adventure, many thanks for placing this cache.

Easy find and retrieval as this one has apparently been moved or fallen down. Log book has been wet at one stage but dried out. Cute container, hopefully it can get fixed up! TFTC
found after a BBQ at friends with dad. He was showing them what geocaching was all about and this was one close to there home.
Started looking for it from the wrong side though the teenager hangout! Doubled back and found it from the other side. Could do with a new log book. It was found with the lid off. TFTC
Great cache but in need of some attention log is dry now but has been wet in past and pages all stuck together
Found the cache sitting out in the open covered by ants. Worked my way into to grab the cache and sign the log. Put it back closer to what it should be sitting in. Probably needs some attention.
Out and about with AnyMules and Kiwi Ozzie for a day caching in the South. Time to go for a stroll around the wetlands and collect some caches. [^]
Found very easily. The camo is now on the ground and completely out in the open. The container doesn't keep the water out and the log book was just soggy. Tipped the water out and put everything back but could really do with some owner intervention. Such a pity it is not how the owner intended.

A nice easy find on a walk around the park. Contents absolutely water logged though.
Thanks for the cache day-trippers. Found on 1 Oct 2017 at 3:17 pm. Find #5166.

Found easily as it was lying on the ground and needs to be reinstated in its spot. Good concept, however it needs maintenance. Cache had water in it and log was swimming, hence unsignable.
Came at this one from the wrong side of the field. Had to backtrack to find the path. Eventually got there, with one wet foot and one dry one
Heading down south for a 50th birthday, made a few detours to pick up the odd cache or two, being a little early we decided to tackle some of the alien series before it was time to head off leaving a coupe for a return visit, quick find on this cache considering it was on the ground at the base of the tree, all in good condition TFTC day-trippers
Found this one a little lower than expected today. Seems it has lost a screw. The cache is still sound in its hiding spot but would probably be better higher up.
Quickly found but not so quickly signed. On replacing the cache the last screw securing the hide gave way. It is now sitting on the ground. Tftc
Hadn't checked the terrain before arriving here, so had to get a bit creative on making the retreival.
Ants everywhere . TNLNSL.
Thanks Day-trippers.

Nice one!!! Worth a favourite!!!! Hevwalker made the grab while myself and clareoo7 waited to catch her!!
Out & about on this gorgeous day with CPwanderer & clare007...
An easy find...but how to retrieve the log book to sign it...we didn't have the required tools...we stood there pondering for a while...do we leave this green box or will we replace it with a smiley...I like smileys...
Stripping off my jacket, boots & socks...I was pushed up with the help of my buddies...lent over & had my hand on the prize...Ants!!! I hate ants & the box was full of them...I think there is a nest of them in there...after quickly signing the logbook & replacing the cache back in it's hide, I slid back down...job done...smiley achieved...TFTC & the adventure day-trippers

This was our last cache on this cache loop around the populate water bodies.
As we approached gz our hearts sank, the item was just out of reach.
We didn't want to leave it behind, but how were we going to reach it?
hevwalker decided that she would give it a go,
and with a bit of team work it was achieved.
Luckily I had my friends with me today, as hefting another item with me would of been hard work.
Thanks for bringing us here, a definite favourite day-trippers

Wow cool cache, I don't know how this doesn't have more favourites! Lucky for the tree next to it otherwise I wouldn't be able to get it.

Found It!
A surprisingly long walk to this one (there really is no way to get across that river to road is there) and a quick find. Getting my hands on it took a bit more effort though - thankfully there is the conveniently shaped tree next to it!

Very sneaky hide we originally tried to get to the spot from the wrong side but the grass was too tall. We got there in the end TFTC
So cool! Long walk but worth it. After reading previous logs I made sure to take husband to climb up to get it (I'm far too uncoordinated for such climbing!). Up he went, we swapped some trinkets and signed the log, put back in then long walk back to playground for the geokids to have a pre dinner play. Tftc!
Also met the rabbit guardians

Lucky i had my tree climbing koala. Great find took postcard left marbles martians and a few other nick knacks. Looking forward to leaving our postcards at other geo's
Well, looks like we found it but no way we are reaching it. Will come back with a step ladder another day
arghhh we're way too short for this ): tried various things but there's no way we're getting that down.. thanks anyway i guess (:
Great location! The kids loved searching for this Cache. Thanks for the enjoyable Geocache!
Thanks Georg, Jacqueline, Gabriel
Thanks Georg, Jacqueline, Gabriel
I remember four-fun had a cache like this full of coins. The birds took the coins- just like the maggy did (jewelry) at the maid and magpie hotel. It was not the maid. There was a slight bit of blood on my caching partners are after the find!
Clear skies to day-trippers from TeamAstro.
JJ52 brought us to this lovely find in an area full of surprises. I had no idea the wetlands were here. JJ52 had been before but found she needed special equipment that she didn't bring on that trip. This time we were armed! We found the cache had been placed in a new spot so we placed it where it was intended and not where we found it. Loved the concept and placement of this cache. Tftc
Out caching with JJ52, locus cache and Gral4 today. We had a bit of an agenda to stick to today and this cache was not on it but we fitted it in anyway as we had the required equipment with us so it seemed a good idea.
The athletic Gral4 did the retrieval but then , there was no cache where we were expecting. That sent us into a little flurry and the cache was soon found by the resourceful JJ52.
Logs were signed, cache contents carefully examined and Hermie TB was put in his new home and the cache replaced in its proper spot.
Thanks for a great hide in a nice spot day-trippers!

International Earthcache Day. After attending an event earlier today, Gral4, JJ52, Ismartis and I headed down south to find ourselves an earthcache and a few other caches too.
By the day's end, I had attended the event [^], found 1 Earthcache and found 9 caches , had 2 DNFs and had lots of laughs
Home Tweet Home had flown the coop and was nestling nearby like a Plover
We replaced it in its real home and wished it well in the future.

Out with Ismartis, locus cache and Gral4 on our way to Aldinga and Willunga and we decided to stop here as we had the required geo tool for retrieval. [^] [^] I had been here before but without required tool so was always going to come back...today was the day.
We arrived at GZ and looked in the hide, but nothing there.
Read a couple of previous logs so had a look around the area and found the cache where a previous finder had hidden it. We all signed the log, then replaced the cache in its proper home.

Found it-not hidden at all as it was just lying on the grass in the open away from target area. I have put it back i the area described on map and clues.
Very close to home we had fun getting there! Lucky Warren came with his shoulders!
