Found with Jamesta18 today while doing some random caching for International Geocaching DayHappy International Geocaching day TFTC TFTC
With such a beautiful, sunny, winters day, I decided to take off on my bike and complete the PATOG power trail. I have been working my way along it and hopefully today I will complete it.So after disembarking the train I jumped on my bike and headed west!On my way to the express way I stopped and grabbed a couple of random caches. This was one of them. I wonder where these roads used to lead to?TFTC LBKeep smiling
This a new account but I found this cache with my mum (EmsDan1315) and my brother (maggies123) on 25-6-2024. My brother also just got premium. TFTC.
I didn't have a pencil so I had to grab a leaf and smudge it on it so it's a little red smudge
Found with Crank1 and Everlasting while staying in Adelaide for The Great Leap Forward event. LB, thank you so much for placing it for everyone to enjoy and highlighting this area.
On the way to Adelaide mega.Sign the log as EV, and thanks for the cache and hunt
Today, I went to Salisbury North for an appointment, and I tried some caches in that area. I tried 2 mystery caches and 1 traditional cache, but only found this one.
Parked on the small road near GZ, and walked there.
Searched here and there, then found the cache.
Singed the log, put the cache back, and covered it well.
Thanks for the cache, LíB. Lots of "weird & cool facts".

Well after a second attempt cos I crossed at the wrong place and the rain came to get me , I got there and wandered to GZ with a small confidence. I needed this find today to cheer me up from the tough day BUT my frown of a day turned into a smile when i realised who the CO is!
Added a bit of natural Camo as the position was completely open and obvious from the nearby path. All good with the log and the cache. TYFTC SL NL

We needed a find for the 19th of June to continue filling our calendar for 2023.
We’re also aiming to get the solstice souvenir and the Wheel of Challenges Hard souvenir – finds on 20 different days during June. This cache will help us get a step closer to both.
Parked in the EP2 car park and walked the 500m to the cache. We remember clearly when this road was open to the public.

Well it's a long time since I've been down these roads. The old WRE, in the old days. Coming from the north we had to detour a few times. We finally got there and retrieved the very exposed cache. Replaced as found
After parking in an area that was a bit on the dodgy side, I made the short trip while cuppy cake stayed in the car with the doors locked and all the windows up.... quick find thank you
Caching down this way picking up a few in the Salisbury and surrounding areas this afternoon. This cache is one that was found today. A nice quick find here all in good condition.
Find #3809 on 19 Feb 2022.

A quick find whilst checking out all the teddy bears, log and container in great dry condition. Tftc
Found with Team Waldron during a few hours caching in the northern suburbs after attending the Earlybirds event in the city. Thanks for the cache LiB!
At last I have found one in this queen forsaken village. Thanks for the cache. In good shape. Perfect shape!!
Im following in Davidwazza’s steps this afternoon, thanks again, this time for the maintenance. I haven’t seen the film! TFTC.
This evening, [@gridge98](http://coord.info/PRGKDMY) and I targeted the Burton Wetlands for a multi-cache there. Following that adventure, we headed north to Waterloo Corner and Direk to complete a number of the *Adders Addle* series, before returning back south towards Salisbury. A nice sunny afternoon and balmy evening to be out and about.
I searched around here for a good 5-10 minutes, and didn't find any cache in a logical spot. I spoke with the CO, who gave me permission to replace on her behalf - it is now a small sistema container. Beware of the bees hive nearby in a neighbouring tree. Also, there appears to be many teddy bears and toys that have sprung up in these rows of trees nearby! I didn't see any reason or justification to why that was the case - perhaps a toymaker had then found the old cache and taken it then? Thanks 3LG/@LíB for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Between work sites today and couldn't resist grabbing a cache or two Lovely piece of nature amongst all the traffic. TFTC
Found this one after walking through the road of teddy bears at night, a bit creepy
Previous logs encouraged me to be brave and I finally had the cache. Nice to have a find today in this lovely weather, thanks!
On a quick trip in the car we decided to find a couple of caches on the way. A good little hide
8 Straight days of caching from Team Holden's birthday to Father's Day in the company of daughter Magic [8] and what an interesting week it was.
Several extraordinary hides and a couple of DNF's, thanks to everyone for the interesting week plus one day. The extraordinary ones have been awarded a favourite point.
TFTC TN Left footprints in the mud.

A nice quick find here. Cache is all good
After uni this morning at Mawson lakes I had a few hours to kill before I had to be home, did a few caches around the area but had the Alice in wonderland series as the main aim.

Found a blocked off road to park on and a short walk later coordinates had us at a likely spot. Saw one real possibility and we made the find. (Bit late logging this one as I just noticed I had logged the wrong cache when I had actually meant to do this one.)
Accurate coordinates and a familiar style of hide led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks 3LG for the cache.
Bit of a tricky spot to find a car park but one was found and so was this cache [^]
SL at 14:40 on Saturday the 30th of March 2019.
That 'Black' song from 1986 came to mind after SL lol
The cache and contents are all good and dry [^]

after paddling around with allister w in the port gawler mangroves we started in the direction of home, back south. We stopped on the way back for puzzles and trads. Quick find at gz. There was ALOT of mozzies to, more than in the mangroves where you expect them.
I have never seen so many blocked off roads in my life. Found in the 5th spot as I missed it first round. Found in dark at 8pm as the mozzies were comming out.
That movie should have stayed a flop. I never liked it. Potter never got his comeuppance for stealing that money!
Thanks for the cache, 3LG

Found in first spot i looked! For those who have time, take a walk down the adjacent closed road. Lots of stuffed animals in the trees... An interesting sight. TFTF

A quick find but much more time was spent cleaning the clay off my shoes that accumulated on the approach to GZ. TFTC.
Day two of my trip to Adelaide and surrounding areas with tmann421.
Weather still pretty marginal, but finding numbers whenever we can between rain showers.
Enjoying these caches, log signed and returned

Found a park nearby wondering what the fenced off area had been used for, we found out what it was as we wandered. I stayed on the flat and left hubby to do the gully. SL TFTC
This area is a shadow of it's former self when there were residents in homes along the street and traffic coming from what is not a no through road...
Of course the quietness enables a better hunt and the container was quickly located on arrival at GZ. With my name in the log, I tucked the container back and headed off.
Cheers 3LG.

Today I didn't have anything planned so decided to go for a nice leisurely drive out north with the idea of getting a few solved puzzles and whatever others I drove past. [^]
This was one of those that was along the planned route and once I found a place to park it was a quick walk to GZ and I saw what I thought was the hide as I was walking towards it.
A quick reach and cache was in hand.
Thanks for the cache 3LG.

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Cache for the day required and was working in the area and was a bit early so decided to take a small detour to make a find. Parked nearby and wandered over to GZ. Spotted the hide from about 20m away. Arrived at GZ and located the cache in the first place I looked. Gotta love that. Signed log and replaced. Interesting information on the film. Things you can learn geocaching.

First cache of the day while out and about with TK2 and The Silver Snitch. Interesting and weird fact! The terrain rating out best hint! Thanks for the cache.
My first cache for the day but my 13th log as I forgot about this as I was the driver and left it off my list. This is an interesting area that I think the government will open up to housing development one day....Unfortunately. tftc.
