Wed been told we were half a chance of seeing an echidna if we went for a hike in here but sadly we got the wrong half of the chance today! Still, it was a nice walk.Mint tin was minus a lid and the log was damp so we turned it sideways when we replaced it to limit water ingress. TNLN TFTC

Found by Mary and David at 17:05. Enjoyed the short walk. Log still ok despite the missing lid. Congratulations on your first hide. Our thanks to blackcat123.

Found with family while birdwatching in the Conservation Park. Mint tin is missing the lid. Log sheet is dry at the moment. Signed log and returned as found. Lots of birds around here! TFTC

Quick find before doing the loop walk. Very pretty scenery here. This one needs a new mint tin. TFTC blackcat123!

Could do with a new container

Found with clanbeckett, abeck58 and catboy67 on our Roadtrip exploring the surrounding countryside of Adelaide.
Although I had no reception I thought I'd give this one a go.
As long as I get to within 10m I should be ok - right .
Spotted something right away that would be a likely hiding spot. So round and round I went with no luck. Widened my search area but wasn't overly keen on the long grass seeing as I had my non-caching footwear on .
Clanbeckett and Catboy67 should be back from their bushwalk any minute now so I thought I'd have one more look at my original GZ. OMG, you're kidding me, how did I miss that the first time around .
Thanks for placing this cache. Although it could do with a new container

We found the cache but we couldn’t sign the log because it was soaking wet.
 
18-Jul-22
The cache had no lid so the inside was soaking wet and the logbook was also wet.
 
14-Jul-22
We enjoyed a sunny day, travelling the country roads, admiring the views and finding caches

06-Jul-22
Found as I was planning the direction of the next cache.
Thanks blackcat123 for the hide.

Camping at Cooranggoorah for the weekend. We ventured out for a hike during the day and then headed into Angaston for a few supplies. Heading back to camp, we stopped and made the short walk to the cache. The information sign near GZ could do with some maintenance, as could the geocache, which has no lid and very susceptible to filling with water. An easy find. TFTC!
 
05-Sep-21
I’ve earned some good STEPtember credits today, spent some valuable time on feet and hopefully satisfied Lisa’s expectations. TFTC
 
01-Aug-21
Beautiful weather. Plenty of roos. Park trails were damp...but the logo was soaking (as tin doesn't have a lid). Angled the cache to try to prevent further water damage. TFTC
 
30-May-21
It found us, we couldn’t find it. We could see it in the distance a long way from GPS reading. Tftc

Today myself, Blackadders and S.A. Sewer Rats headed out once again for a Wednesday Wander. [^] We headed up to the Barossa Valley where we wandered about doing some labs and others caches we were passing before heading off to the Kaiserstuhl Conservation Park for a long, long walk! Razz The Rat chalked up find number 10,000 during our travels. CoolCoolCool

Not exactly where the GPS wanted me to be and not exactly my idea of a small but I soon had the cache in hand after the hint narrowed down the search area. Smile

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. Twisted So once again trying and fill my calendar with multi-caches and complete loop 11 again this year. [^] For my third goal I will try and get my DNF numbers to single digits. Cool That should keep me busy again this year! [:o)]

***Thanks blackcat123 for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin

Parked up and made the walk into this one, after a short search the cache was easily found and is all good

Today with a few new caches published and a new cache published in the Barossa thought I would go for the FTF and also clean up the remains that I had left in the area. A nice day out with 35 finds

Thanks for the cache

25-Jul-20
A day out in my happy place.
I must admit I havent venturesd around to this side of the Kaiserstuhl before.
Looks like I should have brought the mountain bike because I spent most of the day following cycle tracks.

Quick grab on the way home.

Mr Tardis was out for a caching day to the Barossa and surrounds. A beautiful almost-spring day with sunshine and warmish weather.

I found this one after a short search. There was a mob of kangaroos close to GZ, who were quite happy to watch me sign the log and replace the cache. They let me get quite close - they must be used to bush walkers going past.

Thanks for the cache blackcat123.

What a cracking winters day for a bit of geocaching. It was cool but the sun was out and a few of these caches were a lot harder than expected. Thank you all for the caches. TNLN. TFTC.

Using mobile phone to find this one, the mobile reception went, but luckily just enough to get the hint TFTC

Back to change our blue face from October to yellow. When we were here last we had really bad phone coverage and no activity on the caches. Came back today and the satellite gods were smiling. So is our yellow face. Tftc.

Thanks
 
06-May-18
Lovely site for a cache! Nice easy stroll amongst some kangaroos and birds if you walk the loop trail. I had no signal once I got to GZ so had to wait till later to log it. Luckily had a bit of experience now caching so just checked the obvious areas and found it pretty quick without the phone working. TFTC!

Found while out hunting traditionals in the Eden Valley area.
Thanks for the cache blackcat123
 
02-Jan-18
We stopped for this cache on our way home from the Barossa, parking just outside within a short walking distance into the park. Beautiful weather, quiet and a mass of butterflies greeted us Smile Easy find in the end, it could have been harder if we didn't know the size we were looking for. TNLNSL TFTC
 
09-Dec-17
TFTC, Easy find. Be aware of Park volunteers working within the park which you may not see. I personally know that if they find a cache they will remove it as will the park rangers so be a little extra diligent near this cache. Have fun.

Even with a good hint it was a DNF.

Owl was out for the day with Blackadders and SA Sewer Rats. They were determined to show her a good time and Owl ended up with by far the most cache finds. The coordinates were out here, but with encouragement from a past finder a more logical location was searched successfully.
 
16-Mar-17
That took longer than expected. Quite a way off of our co ords but with the help of the hint a more appropriate location was searched and a cache finally found. TFTC.
 
16-Mar-17
Was not where we expe ted it to be.
After waiting for the passing muggles, the snake made the find. Tftc
 
13-Mar-17
No sign of anything cache looking at GZ, maybe my eyes, but maybe it's gone too...
 
02-Jan-17
I think I have found this one once before. But on my return today to log it, I couldn't find it.
Might be worth a maintenance check.
 
01-Nov-16
Out for a spin after work,
and a quick walk in to grab this cache.
In the second spot i looked!
