Removed as instructed by the CO, photo evidence of the find attached to prove we found it. Thanks Lava12 for allowing us to be the last finders and remove these for you. ??
I'm unable to check it because I moved. It's time to head out. Thank you for finding my cache in the past. Lava
Found it, me and my friend were stuck looking around the leaves instead of the tree itselfTFTC
One of nine caches found in the Woodcroft region of Onkaparinga on a sunny but cool August evening. All caches were found fairly easily, and found to be in good condition. Thank you to the various COs for putting out these caches and giving me an evening’s entertainment, special mention to Campbellkids981 who placed the majority of today’s hides. I must be close to your house!
Our usual Tuesday Trekking once again turned into a Wednesday Wander. [^] Plan A was to meet at a cache at Glenelg and wander around there collecting smileys. [^] Plan A lasted for one cache - the cache we met at. 
So now altogether was myself, S.A. Sewer Rats and FTF hound Ttrogg didn't cache around that area we headed south 20 kilometres or so in search of a FTF! [^] So Plan B of caching southwards took over. 
Still a smiley is a smiley. Here is what I found today. 
Another typical Lava hide that still took quite a while to spot.
Once seen you always wonder why did that take so long. [B)]

Women tend to stick with the same hairdresser, even when they move. Today I offered to drive her 30km south to get a haircut from her regular hairdresser, and then spend the time collecting a few more in this vicinity.
Thanks for the cache Lava12, another fine hide in a fine location. A few locals at the playground did wonder what I was doing, but didnt venture over to see. Quickly found and signed using your pencil (to save time). Cache in good condition.

Interesting play ground. I imagine kiddies would love the vertical challenges and climbing on the frogs and mushrooms. Cache is in great condition tftc Lava.
Found with NiciDanielle. Thought with the cache being so named would've put it closer to the playground. Followed the Yellow Brick GPS and soon had cache in hand. TFTC
TFTC. I grew up in Woodcroft and remember when this park was first developed. It’s been a number of years since I have been along here, nice to see how it has changed
Took us a little while as we were looking at the wrong level! My daughter was chuffed she saw it WAY before I did!! Lol
Found it on the ground and it is back hanging in the tree. Also I have replaced a new logbook.
A nice drive around the back roads and found myself here the cache was easily found and is all good
With the whole day to kill and an early birds event in the city I decided I would head to the southern suburbs after being down the last night I wanted to clean up a few more of the caches in the area and mainly targeting the walking caches. All up 39 finds for the day.

I have replaced this cache with a new logbook and a pencil. It is back on the run. Happy Hunting.
Out and about with sir_spectre grabbing a few caches and getting the required souveniers. Caches were found quickly in the obvious spots.
Thanks to Lava12 from mogni

A rare trip to the Southern suburbs to grab some caches and enjoy the nice Spring weather.
Upon approach to GZ, I saw the foliage and thought I would be in for a long search. Thankfully the cache was slightly larger than I was expecting so it was a quick find in the end. Cache is in great condition.
Thanks for the cache Lava12.

Tonight, I decided to call past this Woodcroft reserve for a few traditional geocaches. It was quite dark by the time I had headed out from home, but at least the area was free of muggles, and I don't tend to mind jogging/running with a torch, just so long as the weather is behaving.
It was a quick jog past this cache today, but the search for the cache was more time consuming than I had anticipated. It looks like three at GZ has been recently cut down, so there wasn't any cache there matching the hint. I had a look around the ground just in case, but nada. I then proceeded to search the neighbouring tree, and voila, after a short search, there was the cache, about 10 m away from the posted coordinates. Subsequently, my coordinates were S 35° 06.811' E 138° 33.156'. I suspect after the tree had been cut down, someone may have moved it to this tree, but the cache hide looks to be rather exposed. I'm surprised it has lasted here to be honest, although perhaps this reserve/park doesn't get a lot of attention. The cache container and logbook were in good shape though. Thanks Lava12 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Found while hunting traditionals around Morphett Vale, Woodcroft and a little further east.
Thanks Lava12 for putting it there

With kids playing nearby on their bikes i was a bit nervous i'd be seen looking for this one.
I feared the worse when i saw that the tree was lopped a bit in places and thought the cache may have been included in the missing branches, luckily the booty was spotted and it's log was signed at 16:35 on 1/11/19.
No kids or Muggles were any the wiser. Cache re-hidden and it was off to the next one [^]

The usual animals outing from the Puzzled Puzzlers. Today the Rat and the Adder met with the Owl to clear up a few more down south.
Sorry about the lack of detail with the find. It is a late log but TFTC
