GEOCACHE GC5CK9D SOLDIERS MEMORIAL WILL BE ACHIVED BY HQ WILL NEED FIXING ASAP REPLACED TO BE PREVENTED FROM REMOVED OFF OF SIGN
DNF. After looking i coauld see that it has been removed by the owner. Will be back when it returns!
as mentioned in other logs : council doing work in this location and cache would be unavailable while this is going on
Looks like the council may have destroyed it? Couldn’t find and a lot of fresh council work.
7years of full time travelling and we have only been to Victor Harbor once when we were staying in Kuitpo Forest in 2014. Time for a longer stay this year.
Ducked out to find a few caches before lunch.

Having a look around the Sunday market and noticed this once close by. Quick detour, and the cache was soon in hand. Tftc 
Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I travelled to Victor Harbor and Goolwa primarily to attend the community celebration event, but also to kayak a few of the island caches. Conditions were forecast to have some swell but minimal wind, and so plans were made in the morning before the winds picked up. Following the lunch event, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I then visited a few miscellaneous geocaches along the coast, finishing up with a muddy wade to another island cache.
After visiting here two months ago, I was surprised to see a string of finds from after christmas, indicating that we must have missed finding it hidden away. So we scratched our heads, and returned here today. I started taking a loop around the main shrubbery/bush at GZ, and then we found the cache reasonably quickly. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. It looks like a new logbook from after we had a DNF - does that mean the cache was missing and replaced? Where is the CO’s note to advise as such? Or is there a mysterious maintainer that has visited here - perhaps just a courtesy write note could have been left? Nevertheless, thanks boab bill for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Came back for another try at this cache and ended up finding it. No muggles around tonight. Thanks for maintaining this cache boab bill. TFTC.
Out picking up some high muggles caches tonight under the cover of darkness. We came and looked but unfortunately leaving empty handed. CO may need to check and/or replace this cache looking at the trend of DNF's. Thanks boab bill.
Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I travelled to Victor Harbor for the day to target a few Adventure Labs. We walked around Granite Island, and then did a loop of The Bluff (Rosetta Head) in the afternoon. Finally, we briefly stopped at Port Elliott beach for a swim, and then returned to Adelaide via Crows Nest Road.
This was certainly no quick find for us. We had a good 10-15 min search here, making many loops around the trees and bushes. I suspected where a good spot for the cache may be, but alas, had to walk away empty handed. I was quite surprised not to have found a regular sized cache here, so I suspect it is missing. Thanks anyway boab bill for the cache placement.

Found on the walk back to our townhouse after a walk across to granite island & a game of mini golf on our weekend getaway to Victor Harbor. The rest of the family had had enough of the cold wind so left me to find this one myself. A few fingernails were broken opening the lid of this one. Miss 7 will be disappointed she didn’t join me as there was some loot at the bottom she might have liked to swap for. TFTC 
Found with Scooter11
Nice cache, had to go around a group of people and their dogs for a charity dog walk.
Picked up a bonus pathtag

Bit of a "climb" to find, the trusty multitool to open. Bit damp, so put in bag with paper towel to help dry out. Left our pathtag. TFTC
Looked for a good 10 minutes did not find but that’s okay lovely town to be around
Found while waiting for my wife to complete her shopping .
Nice location to while away the time.

Actually I found it years ago and I wuz using my aunts account since I didnt have my own.
Looking at past logs l doubt it still exists. Weather would be a contributing factor for its demise
Replaced this cache ,hope it lasts longer that the last time i was forced to replace it .
Hi, due to de continuous changing of the landscape could be very helpful to be more precise in the "hint-description" to give at least a chance to find it, also when the spot has changed a bit. Anyway thx for your engagement to take care about this cache on this great place.
Replaced the Cache container
There has been a lot of sand drift here and hiding places are a bit limited at the moment

On a freezing windy spring day the 4 year old had the keen eye for the loot!

We have made an 6 week road trip trough Australia en did some caching just for fun. We could log some and some we couldn’t! But we enjoyed the views and surroundings. Al thanks for placing the caches.
