Great one!

Thanks for hiding this cache for others to stop and admire the monument. Few of us will have such a monument after we ride off. The cache is in excellent condition. SL TN LN.

My BIL has just bought a house on the hill further up the road from here so we stopped here after paying her a visit. Huge memorial to Chris. Super views from up here. Quick find and sign the car was parked 1m away. TFTC

The Rats were up this way visiting family.
So we decided to find a few caches.
A quick find and stamp. Tftc

On a very rare and special occasion, I was out and about with my lovely on a mid-week escape. The weather was lovely, chilly air, fairly clear skies and warm in the car. We left home at a respectable hour, wandered through the hills at our leisure stopping for a morning cuppa while taking in views of the southern coast. Great conversation and experiences at a variety of caches. We stopped for lunch in Strathalbyn and had a stroll in the shops and park after. I had not been caching in this area before so there were many to choose from, including a couple armchair solves waiting patiently.

After walking back and forth for the sequenced AL in the park in Strathalbyn, I reverted to normal caching until it was home time. We managed many different cache types and picked up a golden oldie to fill a gap in my Jasmer grid. All up a wonderful day with over 30 remote hills finds added to my tally.

Thanks for the cache Mike71. Simple yet effective, dry and easy to sign. The cache and contents are all good. Find #8474 at 3.19pm

Out doing some rally work for the Adelaide Rally and grabbing some caches along the way TFTC

Making my way back to Adelaide. Got a target on some caches but not as many as other days. Perfect day today

Another cache find on our 2022 South Australian Adventure. TFTC.

We are enjoying our time travelling SA. Fantastic towns, ruins, beaches and cliffs & wine. Thanks to all the COs for taking us on this geo-guided tour.

I spent the day venturing around Meadows and Strathalbyn. I was particularly targeting caches for my 360 degree from home grid.

Found without problems.

Thanks for the cache Mike_71.

Fantastic day Geocaching

Nice memorial. TFTC

Done

We have been allowed to travel to South Australia and our first stop was Bordertown then onto Millicent where we will spend a few days before heading towards Adelaide.
We have arrived, it has been such a long time since we have been to Adelaide and we are out there finding the many caches that have been placed since we were last here or the ones we have not had time to find before. All caches are in good condition, some were easy finds some were down right difficult due to the great quality of their camo.
SL TFTC

Our last day staying in Strath on our way home from the Millicent Mega.
10 finds on day 10 and 726 for the trip.
A quick find, cache is in need of maintenance as lid is broken and filled with earwigs.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to Strathalbyn and Langhorne Creek. We spent a bit of time in Strathalbyn walking around the town's parks completing the adventure lab, and then headed east to a few of Langhorne Creek's wineries. A few stops and tastes of the drops, and as time went on and it got colder, we returned to Strathalbyn for a few remaining geocache stops, and then back home for the day.

The first thing we noticed here was the massive rock with very small plaque on it. After reading the memorial, we quickly found the cache. Unfortunately, the cache container lid was cracked through it, but the logbook was still dry and in good shape. Thanks Mike_71 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/@jesswrigley stamp.

A great day out exploring the area with [@Davidwazza](http://coord.info/PR61VZX) ! TFTC!

Container needs replacing.
Great view

Beautiful views. Needs a little maintenance

Find # 7694


Found while on the annual Trip to South Aurstalia for the Tour Down Under Bike race.
All week I've been travelling with Tyred n Cranky, but today I dropped them off in Myponga, as they were participating in the "Challenge Tour" with over 3000 other riders.

As every year, when I drop them off, it starts a caching day for me.
This year I had the 40 series on the GPSr ready to go, and a few others around the area and on the way to Strathalbyn, where Tyred n Cranky would be crossing the Finish line and where I had to pick them up.

While doing the 40 I came across another cachers log, wow they were from Horsham, and after a few messages, it turnec out we were doing the same thing. The dropp off of family members, caching the area, picking up family members. A weird coincidence so far from home.

Sorry for the generic log. All caches were found safe n healthy unless otherwise stated.

Found in the very cold weather on national geocaching day! TFTC!

Very appropriate name and great view but sad spot at the same time. Cheers

We located GZ but not the cache. We widened our search area and look in locations consistent with the cache name. It didn't take long before the cache was located about 9m from the published coordinates. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Mike_71 for the cache.

Good solid find thanks

So its been awhile since I have started up my GPS and looked at what I have found. To my suprise I have so much logging to do, and from so long ago. So I have had to put a generic log together as I have no clue what happened this long ago.

Apologies in advance for the generic log, But life has taken a few different paths over the last 2 years now I have to play catch up.

Know one thing, these days I hand pick all the caches I do and well I hand picked this one so its a good thing. Generic log or not

Thanks for the cache Daleerius55
