It appears that the cache might be missing?

Cache is gone

Sorry to tell you but geocache is not there But found some old paper where it should be
 
16-Sep-20
This wasn’t the most ideal time to visit this cache as people were everywhere at GZ today. I was searching in the wrong tree so I called the CO for some help then the cache was easily found and returned

Today I headed south to Aldinga and mclarenvale to go for a bike ride and decided to collect a few caches on my way down to the area. 35 finds for the day plus a few labs.
Thanks for the cache
 
16-Jul-20
Found on another trip down south looking for my usual traditionals. This time mainly in and around Christie Downs.
Thanks JJ52 for putting it there
 
07-Jun-20
Great find thanks!
 
10-Apr-20
Sadly we couldn't find this one it must have been hidden to much!
 
15-Mar-20
Nice quiet spot to look...
 
05-Mar-20
Took me a while to find it in the dark, but some previous logs helped and eventually I found it tucked away in its little hide hole!
TFTC! Smile
 
28-Feb-20
We went there in the evening and it was peaceful and quiet. It's quiet a nice view from there.

This evening, I decided to head south for a few key geocaches. I visited Lonsdale and a little more south towards O'Sullivan Beach. In particular, the *Christies Crossing* oldie was targeted with a few in that area.

I initially left the car running this evening as I popped out to searching amongst the trees. This strategy always seems to backfire, as the geocaching gods seems to hide the cache even more. After five minutes of looking around the tree I returned to the car to turn the engine off. Once I resumed looking, I found the cache. It turned out that I was looking in the wrong tree. The logbook was fine, but but aware that there isn't any o-ring that I could see? So probably prone to water damage in the future. Thanks [@JJ52](http://coord.info/PR7ZQX5) for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance. Some cool industry artwork just up the road, fitting of this cache's theme.
 
26-Jan-20
Thought this might have been a bit of a tough one based on previous comments, but found it first pop. Though I will admit there were distinct footprints leading up to it. Not having any TOTT with me, I’m grateful I have small nimble fingers. Tftc

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.

Travelling back from Rapid Bay, after a two month stint on KI, we now find our selves in the big smoke. So many more caches to find. Booked into alocal caravan park for a week, hopefully doing some urban caching while here.

After 30 km drive across Adelaide for a $30.00 refund, in this street we discovered there was a cache. After the misfortune of having to drive across town, and having the misfortune of the guy at the caravan repair shop saying "sh*t happens", we decided to make the best of it, and found this cache in the same street. Cache found, signed and returned. Thanks JJ52
 
22-Nov-19
Found in the first spot i looked. Considered myself lucky.
 
17-Oct-19
Third time lucky for this one but did have some help to make sure I was in the right spot.
Thanks
 
16-Sep-19
Found with vj187. TFTC

07-Sep-19
When i pulled up near GZ of this one i saw all that growth and with no hint i wondered, hmmm this may be tricky [:o]
I exited the Geo-Mobile and made my way over to where i was going to try to locate this micro first... with luck.

Lady Luck was on my side coz i literally walked straight up to it... phew, this one could have been in many, many spots here so finding it so fast was a relief [:o]

SL in warmth of the Geo-Mobile at 10:30 on 7 Sept 2019.

TFTC JJ52 Smile
 
04-Sep-19
Out & about with kkrafter after our work day this evening...
Not a soul around at this time of night so spent some time searching by torchlight...
Eventually located, signed & placed back as found...
TFTC JJ52 Smile
 
04-Sep-19
After work caching with hevwalker. Took a bit of finding in the dark but we did spot it eventallu. Nice hiding hole.
 
18-Jul-19
Had to search as a few meters off GZ but geokid 8 got there in the end. Bracing day for caching - freezing conditions but at least not raining. TFTC
 
09-Jul-19
found this one on my second attempt.
Log book a bit wet.
TFTC
 
Thanks to JJ52 gave it another shot and looked a bit harder and eventually found it. TFTC
 
Thought we knew where a micro would be here but no joy
 
22-Dec-18
Searched but no luck Sad
 
14-Jul-18
found it with 2 previous finders. I should look for where the cache is likely to be hidden and not follow my phone around blindly when it is bouncing around everywhere.
 
14-Jul-18
Phone hAd us about 5 metres away, finally located
Thanks for the cache
 
08-Jul-18
This one was ‘on the way home’ so stopped off to see if I could fix this dnf. Very quiet today unlike when we visited last year. Took a while to locate but found in the end TFTC JJ52
 
12-Apr-18
Found! Couple of meters off GZ but good hide
 
16-Feb-18
Sneaky! Plenty of workers around which made it hard to be stealth. Found a little off from the coordinates though.
 
20-Jan-18
Out for a ride on the mountain bike. Took quite a bit of searching and just when i was about to give up spotted something that looked not quite right and there it was. Tricky!
TFTC
 
11-Jan-18
Eventually found several metres from 0. Using Brianna’s hint I’m not sure that the cache is in its original location as it was not up high. I have replaced where I found, concealed in the same fashion! TFTC!
 
08-Jan-18
This was very challenging. Bailes01 and I had decided we'd give up and go get some food, but I decided to check one lay spot, and bingo!! TFTC, #358
 
08-Jan-18
Found with cacheclosed1847. We had almost lost hope until cc finally found it on a final search
 
03-Aug-17
Read some logs, had a pretty thorough search of what I thought was gz. No luck. Was about to log a end when I thought I'd read some more logs. Briana got me thinking. Bingo, there it was. Thanks JJ52.
 
08-Jul-17
A cold windy day , but nothing else to do so we decided to knock off some local caches
Cheeky little hide almost gave up but then Miss Nic had cache in hand !
Tftc JJ52
 
01-Jul-17
Being Saturday afternoon, most places here were closed, or at the very least, quiet [8)] - ideal conditions to search for a cache [8].
Like most others, we searched around the wrong tree first [B)], but found the container as we expanded our search area Wink. TNLNSL.
Thanks again JJ52. Our last for the day.
 
25-May-17
Tried for this one today as we needed one for our date found calendar. Alas we could not find it in the time allowed. We will more than likely be back! TFTH
 
16-May-17
Started to look around but the muggles doing building work across the street kept my endeavors to a low key.
Will be back.
 
14-Apr-17
We decided to take advantage of the beautiful autumn weather and spend some time caching down south. This was the last one we found for the day - we enjoyed the sunset looking out to sea. An interesting area to visit. TFTC Smile
 
08-Apr-17
Nice quiet street late on a Sat afternoon. Ol had this one in hand quite quickly - she's the little black tube whisperer! TFTC
 
06-Mar-17
Stopped off to check this one today and the cache is still there nicely tucked away just waiting to be found. Wink
 
16-Jan-17
No luck with Bailes01 and CachingTheJoint
 
16-Jan-17
Only had a quick look with CacheClosed1847 and Bailes01. Getting a bit late and a couple of muggles giving us suspicious looks. Reading the logs makes me think it shouldn't be too difficult so will be back.
 
26-Oct-16
Hmm.
I convinced the Ukulele Kid, who has found this one previously, to take a rather lengthy detour to find this one, and to take another crack at Roxburgh.

It was not worth it.

We spent some time trying to find this one, firstly me solo, but then with the assistance of my somewhat useless previous finder.
Anyway, we eventually had to concede a DNF, but we shall return.
 
26-Oct-16
Obviously one of three things happened:
-I have a really bad memory
-The cache is gone
-Or I have a really bad memory

Aye, no luck for us today...
 
Found a long time ago with my dad rod81w. Sorry for late log as my dad has just started up my own account. I remember my dad lifting me up the wrong tree. Thanks jj52
 
27-Jul-16
Tried finding this one at night, because every other time I come here there are muggles over the road on smoko. How many smoko breaks do these blokes get?!?

No luck tonight, so will return another day. Maybe a Sunday arvo will be a good time to search in daylight while avoiding muggles.
 
Hazel left a feather in the garden! Very tricky to find.
 
03-Apr-16
Good little hide. Thanks
 
25-Mar-16
Found It!

Area has been considerably cleaned up since my last visit. Walked straight up to the cache tonight and made a quick and simple grab. TFTC. 26/10/2015, 18:10 Find #1023

every time I seem to come here there is always a pack of peps ducking out for a smoke across the road. found a window of opportunity and grabbed a cache.
 
26-Sep-15
Very central. Found with ROPENUT, the european and satin01
 
26-Sep-15

Well that was a good hide, thanks!! 3 from 3 today!!
 
06-Sep-15
As we arrived at this cache the skies opened up and it bucketed down! My muggle mate and my mother decided to offer me moral support from inside the car while I searched. Unlike a previous trip this was a fruitful search. Thanks JJ52 for the hide!!

16-Feb-15
Extensive look in very hot conditions with AussieM&M and clare007!! ........................ no luck!
 
15-Feb-15
An extensive search on a hot day left us worried that our caching Mojo had evaporated like a cool drink on a hot day.
I hope it's still here JJ52 Sad

Spent a couple of minutes looking whilst going past, but the rubbish and other locations were calling so we decided to continue onwards instead looking longer.

Heard about geocatching a day ago this is my first find, found it while working, good way to make my nights a bit more interesting.
 
06-Jul-14
A tricky little hide. I was essentially giving up, when SEMIK spotted it.
 
29-May-14
Was able to find this after work
tftc Smile
 
27-May-14
That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.
 
22-May-14
First time I've been able to have a proper look, driven past a few times and had traffic, stopped once and it started to absolutely pour down but finally a nice quiet night. A mate used to work across the road at mumme tools, now he's at the new place around the corner. Would tell him to go have a look if he was still there. TFTC
 
02-Apr-14
Found during a foray into the southern suburbs. Took a bit of searching but located it eventually. Thanks for the cache JJ52!
