We only had time for one cache - we chose the elephant. Nice area, good hide, but the container needs serious attention. TN, LN, SL, Thanks!
Our 5 year old said "it just close enough for me to reach it". Container has no lid & needs replacing
Nice easy find, the container is missing the lid but it is safe and sound TFTC
Me and my twin sister found it! Had fun and very exciting and was tricky to find but got there
First of four for the day and we love trails like this. I enjoyed the walk and enjoyed the area thankyou for bringing me here
Last time I was at this spot I spend ages crawling around on the ground with no luck. Eventually I asked my muggle partner to hand me the phone (he had been put 'in charge' for the first time) and as soon as I looked it was obvious he has sent me crawling around looking for a disabled cache It was nice to find this one just where I expected it to be, TFTC.
Needs a new container as the lid is broken and not a great deal of space left on the log. Spotted by geo hubby.

We hoped to find a cache today to fill in a hole on our geocalendar. We were on the way from Gawler to Elizabeth to help my elderly father with some work in his garden and once again the Elephant Walk series came to our rescue.
We have used this series often for the same purpose when in SA and visiting my Dad. The co-ords are usually spot on and we know we have a good chance of success. The log was signed and the cache rehidden after waiting for a high school muggle to cross the bridge on his bike and ride away.
Thanks again travellinbees for this great series. [^][^][^]

First day of spring so I was out caching, luckily in between showers. Been meaning
to walk like an elephant for a while now so it was a great chance to grab
a few more caches in this series. One step closer to completion.
This one was a quick and easy find and the first for today. TFTC

Found the cache after about to give up. Was almost in creek and pretty sure not where it was supposed to be.
Found cache almost in water. Have put roughly where coordinates are. Please check this out as not sure where it meant to be but pretty sure not where we found it.
Forever and ever looking but found it way off from co-ordinates put back where we think it's meant to be??? Found with mrbuzzy
Well after finding the neighbourhood cache just up the path and plenty of search time. off I shot to hunt this one down. Cache was soon found. This was the last of the elephant walk series for the Smirchies! Yay! Thanks bees for hiding these caches they've been fun to find, we've gotten FTF's and elusive DNF's whilst hunting out this series.
I even found the old the bridge to Terabithia cache that's on the other side.

I have previously found this one but was out today with the geomum to cross a few off her list. Seems it's no longer here.
**this is a late log - found before it was disabled. This is the note I left myself**
Moneydork and I had a chance to geocache and cached after darkness fell. We were able to spot this one despite the resident spiders. Thanks travellinbees.

Just like Flipper&Co and Earthlight, this one was a DNF for us too. While it was a great bridge to find, and we crossed it several times to make sure we were on the right side... still no luck here.
Although on hunch, we did check the other side and located an old cache called "Bridge to Terabithia" with the last signature in 2010. So we signed that anyway. Not sure what it's code was as it only had the name. Anyway considering there's and EW cache there it must have been archived.

TFTC. Decided to try and finish the Elephant Walk off today, but still need to get a couple. Lovely day to be out caching!!!
Today Chrispy89 is heading home far away in the bush so before his big trip i decided to skip my much needed sleep in after a busy weekend and take him to get some caches through the area, weather was in our favour as rain was expected but it is nice and dry, some of the caches involved crossing creeks and with the creeks mostly dry it made our job a lot easier to get them, i managesd 18 caches in 3 hours so i was pleased with the day, the tribe of TBs in my possesion got to visit a few more caches so thier owners will be happy.

Found where this one should have been. No cache, so we put a temporary cache out. TFTC
We have remade this cache. It will be in place and enabled by the end of the week. Thanks for your patience
We didnt need a bridge because this one was spread out on the ground and very wet.
Put it back together and rehide.
However it is very wet.

Off to do an elephant walk today as I am trying (You can say that again I can hear the Bees yelling) to get close to 7000 for my trip to India.
Working our way down the line and even managed a refresment break along the way.
Took the Mystery girl and a phone with me this time and had a lot more success.
Found out in the open

Thanks for the cache. This is a new joint account for both afitzger88 and Kareng097.
Another cache found in the last place we looked, which was as usual not the first place we looked. I would be happy to ride an elephant accross the bridge.

Loved that, consideing muggle partner was already complaining that it was late.. at 7.15pm....
Never seen that colour container before, it is pretty

Found on a great day out with CPwanderer and Team707 as we targeted the Elephant Walk series and other caches in the Northern Suburbs.
CP made the find in the obvious spot. TFTC travellinbees.
