Chewbacca72 and I are traveling during 4 months through Singapore, Australia and New Zealand. A few caches that are on our way should not be missing. This cache is one of them. Many thanks to Liz and Bruce for hiding.Best regards,searchersab

Cool hiding spot!

Found it, although I couldn't grab it

TFTC got this one!

Thanks ltf

We visit Swan Hill, Mildura, Renmark, Barossa Valley, Victor Harbour, Tailem Bend and the last night at Ballarat. Stopped for few caches on the way. We had a lot of fun travelling these roads and seeing the farms and wildlife along the way. We found a range of caches. Many thanks to the CO's for placing and maintaining these caches.

TFTC. With JLWE 2024 in Lameroo finished we headed to the Riverland for a couple days of caching before heading home.Happy caching and safe travels!

Found on a beautiful May Day, Thanks Liz and Bruce for this adventure tftc

The Adelaide Leap Day Mega and Canberra Geobash gave me a great excuse for a road trip. This trip has shown me so many new and interesting places as Ive chased LGAs, oldies, challenges, interesting D/T combinations, rarer cache types and favourites.Meeting up with friends old and new along the way, we sometimes cached together and sometimes alone but always had a great time. Today we are heading across the border to Victoria but not before stopping in the Berri area to explore for a few hours. Some wonderful old caches here and a tricky fishing expedition in todays hot windy conditions.Thanks to the CO for placing and maintaining this cache and adding to our enjoyment.

Signed dsd

It was too hot for walking, but DSD convinced me because this was a 2002 cache, phew alright, lets go! A quick walk directly into the bush from the road and after a little boost the cache was in hand!Thanks for keeping this one alive for so long! - **On your Bike - Day 4** -The final day! Given our team was so devoted to this series and putting in the very long days / hours we managed to smash it out in 4 days! We were absolutely wrecked by the end of it though, and this last day became hard at times to keep the enthusiasm levels high, especially when we had a string of missing caches all along the same road, the first ones missing of the entire series! Thankfully the previous finder had replaced many of them with CO permission, and then we replaced the remainder ones with CO permission as well. We think there might be an unhappy farmer living near this road! We managed to finish not long after lunch, which gave us some time to find a few extras in town afterwards, as well as have a much needed rest and treat ourselves to a good meal! Huge thanks to SAGEO_5, but mainly to the individual persons involved with this account and setting up this epic series!

We are on the way from Brisbane to Adelaide for the MEGA Leapyear 2024.Found the cache with TBU1BIKESU Tftc

We are on the way from Brisbane to Adelaide for the MEGA Leapyear 2024. We stop for interesting spots and combining it with finding caches.This was one of them. A fav point for the age! Tftc Liz and Bruce

After dropping the car off for a service, out I set on foot to get an old Liz and Bruce cache. While on the way there I looked at the logs and see a previous DNF (not a good start). So I read the description and see that it is up high. Great no totts and a DNF. Already halfway to the cache so I thought I would scope it out and if needs be return once I collected the car. When I got to GZ I saw I would need something to boost me up, so makeshift ladder found, up I went and soon had cache in had. Cache is in good shape. My cracked rib is complaining a little but good to have another Liz and Bruce cache off the list.

DNF

Stayed the night nearby and saw this oldie on the map and headed for it as I was leaving today. Parked nearby and enjoyed the walk to GZ where a little bit of acrobatics was needed to retrieve the cache. Log signed and then all returned as found. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for me and others to enjoy.Nice spot and a FP for an oldie. TFTC Liz and Bruce

Perhaps terrain needs to be a little higher on this one. Mason Cox prob would be able to reach but doubt it. A bit of skin off but got there. Found in company of Ronice88, weirdobiker, Bounty Trackers and de ja vu. Nice to get an oldie. Tftc Liz and Bruce. Btw cache dry as a chip!

We are in SA with a group of like minded people to do this series as team Puzzld which consists of myself, Ronice88, contesta, de ja vu, search4, kbucky and Bounty Trackers. Lots of caching fun over the next few days. We stopped in to lots of other caches along the way, this being one of them

Another enjoyable day exploring around the Murray and grabbing great caches and geoart caches before the heat of the day.We had a great day searching and signing logbooks with our Pzzld group friends.Thanks for the cache.

Hip hip hooray for this golden oldie! How fabulous and mind boggling is the monumental scale of caches and geoart in SA. On a multi project in the true sense of the word far from home base which is at higher altitude. The project was to do the OYB series with a group of likeminded geobuddies. Now its over Travelling with the always fun kbucky and weirdo biker - and now that the marathon is over we can kick back more and enjoy the local specialties. Thanks a zillion to the COs for the variety of caches and challenges. Im imagining a recovery session after this epic exhausting 4 days in the heat to say nothing of Collingwood winning the 2023 AFL Premiership GO PIES! AND a FAVE for longevity

Stamped as PUZZLDTeam consists of Ronice88, Weirdobiker, Contesta, DeJavu, Search 4, Kbucky & myself Bounty Trackers. On a 5day (maybe more) caching expedition with On Ya Bike series as the main objective then on to the Paddle steamer series we are all staying in Nildotte for 3 nights then moving up to Loxton for another 2 nights. With events at either end. And hopefully a few caches placed before 2010 will also be on our hit list. Lots of fun & laughs had along the way and lots of car doors opened & closed. Thanks for placing and maintaining the series.

TFTC we don't know about 6' tall try 8' tall

Glad to tick this one off the list, trying to cache along the Murray after the floods has been a bit of a bust recently. Tftc

Came here today to retrieve the trackable that has been sitting here for 9 months, while here I changed the dirty muddy container with a clean dry screw top container with a new dry logsheet.
Obviously the cache was placed by Liz!

TFTC

We found it but we're unable to sign due to it being saturated. Least it didn't float away in the floods. Needs a bit of a clean to restore it to how it used to be.
Thanks for placing this cache

At the 18th National Caravan Rally at Barmera Field Day site. Enjoying ourselves. Out today sight seeing in the area. Have to collect some caches while here.

Despite this cache being placed high, it apparently was underwater during the recent flood, as it was full of water. Poured out the water, but was not able to sign the log. It was sopping wet!
Thanks

Adding Trackable

Found it!!

Beautiful area

Thanks for the find nice area

Gonna leave my holly here to further its adventure tftc

#18962. Day 6 of our Vic/SA trip with Robmc the geodogs and our bicycles. With the day dawning bright and sunny as we had hoped we continued with our plan for this to be a full riding day around town with the doggies in tow. Mind you the wind was bitterly cold most of the day. Some history and some great views along the river. Apart from the smilies and the AdLab we had a couple of DNFs and a couple unattempted.

We rode out from the caravan park to gather just a few and this was one for me as Rob had done it back in 2009. Nice to have done a 20 year old cache today.

Thanks Liz and Bruce

Staying in Renmark for a short holiday, caching around where we travel. Touring around a few towns today and picking up caches along the way. 24 were found today, this cache was one of them.

A short walk to the cache and soon after, had it in hand. Cache in decent condition for its age, plenty of room in log. Thanks for keeping this oldie alive!

Find #4484 on 21 Jul 2022.

Enjoyed the little exhibition off the track. TFTC

Staying in Loxton for a few days with iluvtrekking. After setting up in our nearby accommodation, we wandered around to do some nearby caching. All good here. Greeting from Loxton Liz and Bruce

Found with richlink as part of our 2022 South Australian Adventure.

Having arrived from Adelaide Show Grounds CP and set up camp at Loxton, we decided to go out again to pick up one or two caches before dinner.
Thanks for the cache.

We are finally able to travel interstate without heaps of loops to jump through. We thought we would take it easy and have a look around South Australia and grab a few more LGA's while we were here.
Out for a morning run while staying at the caravan park. I went went straight to this one thanks to a previous cacher who made it easy for me.

This was find number 9 for the day.
TFTC Liz and Bruce

Found it

Found it on a family walk, next person bring their own pen

This was a wonderful geocache and the container was a good throwback. Hi enjoyed walking with my friends and family to find it.

After a busy week finding about 1000 wherigos in South Australia I made my way back home, covering almost 900km over 3 states in one day going the scenic route from Swan Reach to Swan Hill and then back south.
I was keen on finding this one as it an older GC6 cache.
I walked along the pleasant location on a beautiful sunny morning for a quick find at GZ, well away from any muggles.
Thanks, Liz and Bruce.

Due to the weekend weather forecast for high winds, I had to cancel my planned kayaking trip at the Corong.

At short notice I decided to head to Loxton instead.
The wind was blowing for most of the weekend but thankfully the mild temperatures made for a good haul of finds in and around Loxton.

Old one. Favourite point from me.

Thanks for the cache Liz and Bruce.

TFTC Liz and Bruce. How could we bypass this one. The COs who live close to us would be most disappointed. And not let us live it down .
We had completed the On Your Bike Series yesterday. Another hot day was being predicted. So we left camp early. After chasing some Wandering Heros and any other caches nearby we headed back into Loxton to attempt some of the caches along the river.

Day 5: SA/Vic Christmas holiday trip

Last Christmas holidays, fitzy_1965 and I (along with two geo-kids, Death Killer & my_name_jeff_1) headed to SA to visit family whilst we could, and to collect as many counties and caches as possible along the way. We decided even before getting home that we needed to go back. The added incentive of more On You Bike series sealed the deal. Fast forward through 2021 (because who wants to remember that), and here we are again. This time with extra company in the form of Sol de lune, Smittengranny and albida33.

At the start of today, we collected some caches around Loxton before venturing a little further afield for the Around the World series and solved puzzles in the area. This was exhausting in the heat of the day and the dust of the roads, but we made all the finds we went looking for. At the end of the day, we made the decision to pack up a day early and head back across the border to do the Paddle Steamer…..and to air conditioned accommodation instead of continuing to camp in tents!

All caches were signed as FAMSS and were found quickly and easily unless otherwise mentioned.

The decision was made to joined in the South Australia tour to hit up the On Ya Bike series with fitzy_1965, Minniek, Smittengranny and Albida33 (who had driven up from his Christmas visit to Adelaide). After getting across the SA border with only a stop for one of us to be (re) tested, we headed to our camping area at Loxton and set up camp.

Day 4 on the series trail dawned and once we had finished those On Ya Bike caches in this area we set about cleaning up a few other caches. The OTD August series was the first to be hit as the lure of 31 large caches was too much to ignore. While some of the caches have obviously been replaced, it was good to see the majority are still the original container. Of course, while grabbing that series of caches, we also passed many others that we stopped for, including a few back in Loxton All caches were found without issue, apart from the 41 degree temp we encounted, and all were signed as FAMSS for fitzy_1965, Albida33, Minniek, Smittengranny and Sol de Lune.

Thanks to all the CO’s of the caches in this area and of course thanks for adding to the fun of our 7 adventure/road trip.

26,171. Found with minniek, Sol de Lune, Smittengranny and albida33 during our post Christmas / New Year trip over to South Australia and Victoria to tackle the On Your Bike and Paddle Steamer series among many other caches.

Today we started by finding some caches around Loxton, then went for the Around The World series and some more solved puzzles. All caches were a nice quick find - sometimes using the appropriate TOTT - unless otherwise stated. Signed as FAMSS. This was another long hot day. A nice old cache to pick up.

When minniek and I were in South Australia in January this year (2021) doing the On Your Bike series of (then) 100 Wherigo caches, we were talking to the CO who mentioned that a whole lot more were soon to be published, and they were - 512 more ! So once back home we set about solving all those new ones which was at least something to do during 'stay at home' orders effecting us. Then once they were all solved we planned a trip over to grab them. Then just to add to the fun the latest 152 were published just in time for us to spend time solving them all so we could get the whole set. With our caching friends Sol de Lune, Smittengranny and albida33 this series was our main aim, but with the 'Around the World in 81 caches' series, various solved puzzles and the Paddle Steamer as standby if we got the time.

We managed some BIG days caching and finished off the On Your Bike series in three days, then attempted the mammoth 'Around the World in 81 caches' series and some lovely high/rare D/T caches - all in searing summer heat peaking at over 40 degrees ! Once they were finally completed we headed over to the Mildura region for another two blistering hot days doing the Paddle Steamer series. After camping for five nights we finally relented and got hotel rooms for the last two nights and worked the air conditioning to the bone.

All in all an amazingly fun time was had, and we have all made room in our calendars for when the next part of the On Your Bike series is published - no pressure ! Highlights included many of the fun tree climbs, the pole caches which increased our skills at the recovery and replacements of those styled caches, and the relaxed times and banter around the camp site at the end of each tiring day - including New Years Eve !

Thanks to all the COs for contributing their caches to our fun times, and I must apologise for the generic logs as we did find well over one thousand caches which now require logging !

Nice to grab such a old cache. On the hunting trail again with SeasonedBird, Liz & Bruce. Another great day for caching. TFTC Liz and Bruce

Great find, TFTC!

There was no pencil in cach

Good to see a really old cache that is still in action. Used an aid that was nearby to gain access to the cache container. Signed the log and put all back as it had been found, which is well out of sight. Thanks go to Liz and Bruce for this enduring cache.

Found this cache while in Loxton to do some shopping and decided to have a look around the local area. Found this old cache which is still in good condition. TFTC.

Tftf

Another extended caching session with the indefatigable Locus Cache, who totally wore me out today. We started in Sedan, travelled to the banks of the Murray at Loxton, and back along the Stott Highway late into the night.

Thanks to all the respective cache owners. No DNFs today!

A nice stop on our journey across the country from Adelaide to Brisbane with Davidwazza! TFTC!

Moving from Adelaide to Brisbane, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I decided to drive the long distance to make the opportunity a holiday, taking 12 days and passing through Victoria, New South Wales, and then finally arriving in Queensland. We spent the first few days in SA's Riverland, visiting Morgan, Berri and Renmark; and then drove through Mildura in Victoria. In NSW, we stopped at Hay, Parkes, Merriwa, Tamworth, Port Macquarie, and Coffs Harbour, and then entered Qld to stop for a night in Robina in the Gold Coast.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I travelled around the Murray Riverlands, visiting Loxton, Paringa, and Renmark. We started the day from Berri, travelling south and finding a few miscellaneous geocaches. Once at Loxton, we completed the *Historical Loxton* Adventure Lab, found a few geocaches along the river, and then had lunch in town. We then drove towards Paringa, and took a walk around Murtho and Headings Cliffs. We then proceeded back through Renmark, and finished off our evening with a walk at Wilabalangaloo and completing the Berri *A River Contemplation* Adventure Lab.

This was a targeted geocache due to its age, with it being an oldie 05/2002 hidden cache.
We parked just along the road, and followed the nice established geotrail to GZ. We then found the cache reasonably quickly, although it did need a small climb to retrieve. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Liz and Bruce for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

TFTC
Quick find today
HARDEST PART WAS GETTING IT OPEN.

Found while out on a morning stroll while staying at the caravan park with Rodney & Briana.
Good hide

We had fun finding it with sharyn and daddy

A bunch of misfit geocachers decided to tackle the On your bike series and what ever other caches we passed, caches found by us are logged as RSB ( Rod,Sharyn,Briana)

Left Adelaide at 4pm and arrived at our accommodation in Loxton where we are staying for 2 nights just after 7pm.

Tftc. The Munstas

Found thanks to the 6ft2in geoson

TFTC. Didn't like the spider that came with it though!

Now that was a stretch. But rearranged the furniture to defy gravity a bit more to reach way in. Tftc

Thanks to tall friends. Tf the high c.

Tankengine and I were on our way from Tailem Bend to Berri today.

We had plans to pick up a few caches here and there, concentrating on only a special few as we didn't have time to do whole power trails or clear out towns.

This cache: Quick find. Glad I had someone taller than me to assist though. Tftc Liz ad Bruce!!!

Chooo ooo [Found] with dty73 on our SA Road Trip! So nice that the borders are slowly starting to open! Thanks Liz and Bruce

??

tftc

In the Riverland for a couple of days, on a caching trip, with clare007...
The day was damp and cool but did not deter us from our mission...
We headed over to Renmark to grab a couple of target caches...

I have travelled down this track a few times...mostly pre-caching...
Today I stopped to grab this one...actually I found the location but I needed to be a tad taller so I called on Clare's assistance...cache signed and replaced as found...

I commented that the last cache I found nearby was a 2020 cache & this one is a 2002 cache...it amused me...

Day 380 ( Saturday 12th ) of our trip. Caching along the way. In Loxton today. A total of 4 for the day and 6752 the trip. A grand total of 16,720 caches. TFTC

Found after a little stroll into nature. We were staying close by in the caravan park and drove around the area getting a few smileys. TFTC

Nice one!!!!

Love it

Found on a trip to the Riverland with e.gregory1 that saw us travel to Loxton via the Wandering Heroes series, then to Katarapko, Berri, Cooltong Conservation Park, Renmark, Chowilla and Danggali Regional Reserves, then visiting Barmera and Pooginook Conservation Park and returning via Waikerie and Blanchetown. It was nice to spend a few days camping out in the bush and visiting many scenic locations, staying at great campsites and finding an assortment of targeted caches as well as the satisfaction of clearing up some remote spots on the geocaching map. Thanks for the cache Liz and Bruce!

Found on a trip to the Riverland with FeatherWaite.

It was nice to be able to finally get out and about again for a few days of travelling, camping and caching. We were lucky with the weather, with mostly sunny days, relatively warm temperatures and no rain to speak of.

We targeted specific caches and areas and found a good selection of traditionals, multis, puzzles, letterboxes and a wherigo. Most of the containers and contents were in reasonable condition, although we did have to replace a few.

Surprisingly we didn’t come across any many other people on our travels. Perhaps it was just a product of where we went, or maybe people are holding off for the June long weekend.

A quick and easy find.

Thanks Liz and Bruce for the cache.

Thanks. No pencil so we couldn’t record our names. Next time we will bring our own.

Time for a walk to explore the area near my camp after dinner. Enjoyed the walking tracks and found this I almost came to grief In extracting the container, but only a small blood loss. Thanks for the cache and the challenge Liz and Bruce

Good to have a tall husband...
Many thanks for still maintaining this old geocache,

Found it. Had to climb

Thanks

Found!

*Found on the 2 Jan 2020 @ 7:34 pm.*
*Cache find # 10538.*

While staying in town at the caravan park I headed down to the river with biggles1024 to see if we could find a few along here.
After finding the nearby multi, we headed to this one next, upon arriving at GZ, we know what had to be done, shortly after the cache was in hand and the log was signed.
It’s good to be able to find another old cache.

**Thanks to Liz and Bruce for placing this cache.**

Traditional Find #2685**

The third day of our caching adventure to NW Victoria and South Australia dawned fine and warm.
After completing the bike geoart and finding a few more caches on our back to Loxton, we rested for an hour or so and then proceeded to look for a few local caches in the coolness of the late afternoon.
A change of elevation was needed to retrieve this cache and Steve kindly obliged.


**Thank-you to Liz and Bruce for placing this geocache**

Great

So much more climbing help than usually occurs! TFTC

Nice ride along the quiet river in the late afternoon. Bike came in useful again as a TOTT, TFTC!

So wonderful it’s still here after all these years!

Got it it’s in a

Mr 4Moule and his height definitely came in handy with this cache. Cache was found in good condition and logbook signed. Thanks for placing this here.
