I have decided to archive this one.
 
18-Feb-17
I read the logs with a number of DNF's and thought "I will have a go, and either find it, or post a 'Needs Maintenance'." Needless to say, here is the latter. I searched the structure at GZ as well as the natural surroundings with no joy. I suspect that it has been muggled. CO please check...

Needs a check

Not found. I think it needs and update. Thanks

We are bored today. Let's go geocaching. We didn't read the logs before actually been at GZ. Still had a quick look and no trace of it.

Same as previous visitor, searched high and low. Co ords took us exactly to a specific object and it certainly was not there or nearby,we even sat and pondered for a bit.
 
30-Oct-16
Hunted under, over and around but we couldn't find it. Be interested to know if it was muggled or well hidden.

found on the way home from the " 4 months to the Surf Coast Event - Mildura ". Given the wet state of the roads I walked from River Memories # 5 - Jane down to this one. Ended up with about 3 cm of mud under each boot. Easy find.

We made this one more difficult that it really was. We didn't see the critter at first pass and search everywhere else instead. Sad

We miss our smurfmobile. Nawty intended on renting a larger vehicle while is SA but forgot so we have to deal with our wee vehicle.
Logbook is full. Takes us back to NZ where almost every cache we visited had the same issue.

A late start to the caching day as we had a few domestic chores to attend to. One involved washing the van so we crept to this one so as not to get it dirty again. A quick find was made at GZ and then the rain came down! Despite crawling back to the bitumen we still managed to get quite a bit of mud on the van and had a bit of trouble with it slipping. The joys of caching! But thanks for an easy smiley.

By chasing another cache, I stumbled upon the road to reach this cache Smile
Not much of a road really, but it got me to where I wanted to be Big Grin

And at GZ I found a seat !!

Odd !!
I sat upon said seat and stared out across the pond and the thing that made the gurgling sound.
That thing made me want to have a pee Red Face
OK !!
Relieved, I returned to said seat and with the gurgler, gurgling in the background I uncovered a cache Big Grin

TFTC and detour !!

Quick find by geokid gnomeo2007 despite the roadside workers working right next to the cache location. Geodad didn't want to leave the geo-mobile because of the workers. Also with messy61.

Today is day one of our trip away. We set off for Berri to spend 3 days caching the Riverland area, joined by earthlight and Gwen from The X-Trailers. This was a good opportunity to find (or DNF) caches while trialling out our new tent and camping accessories, gearing up for when we head off to the QLD Mega at the end of March. We started out in temperatures of 38ºc before that first evening brought light showers, although not enough to dull the 41ºc temp for day two. Day three was a much nicer day as the day cooled down to a nice 28ºc. We managed 200+ finds on this trip. On day two we found caches in 3 states in 1 day being SA, VIC & NSW, that was quite a highlight. No snakes were spotted, guess it was too hot for them but we had one roo bound slowly across the road in front of us. Next trip back here will be with the boat, there are plenty of river caches to hunt for and naturally all the ones we didn't have time for. Found this one at night so we didn't see the drain, will have to return during daylight hours. TFTC

Today the GeoCruiser was back in for service/repairs. Surprised

We managed to head out and about and investigate some potential campsites in advance of moving tomorrow.

Some light rain about making the dirt roads a bit slippy but nothing too bad for the GeoCruiser.

Central Australia trip Crossing the Simpson and Innaminka, August 2014. After many years away from the Oodnadatta track and Innaminka, it was time for a another tour. This time in Company with seven cars to tackle the obstacles. Caching opportunities were a little thin, but the ones that were out here are all in great places. The whirlpool was certainly mesmerising. Thanks.

We looked at going down a road near a previous cache, no way we were going to get the bike down there. We tried a different road and found it to be quite satisfactory. Interesting place to find a seat. SL TFTC
