Cache will be removed by the end of March, thank you to all that have came out and enjoyed the area.

An afternoon of geocaching with BratKat finding a few caches and enjoying a lovely Saturday afternoon and evening.
Thanks to Rod81w from mogni

Mogni magic struck again; while I was feeling the heat she dove on in, looking in each cranny. Muggles were very much not interested in us

Plenty of muggles around but bear and moose enjoyed exploring the rocks while Mumma found the cache. Bunny helped put the cache back safe & sound. Nice breezy day to be out caching the area

No luck but would have liked to look further with longjohn24 but too many muggles

DNF. No luck for me.

Looked high and low but dnf

Nice find!

Took a few minutes of hunting around to find this one, which was well hidden. I found it by touch rather than sight, but a great little hiding spot! Happy to have in hand. Signed log just before the sun set. Thanks Rod81w

No luck today

Tftc from Germany

After a rainy morning suddenly a bit of sunshine, yes found it! Great spot!
Thanks for the cache!

Luckily had my partner with me today, he's a good little monkey and is able to get into the hard to reach places. He helped me find this one on a lovely day out caching. TFTC

Watch your step

After having a massage and needing to write in the log of a previously found cache but didnt have a pen with me, decided to try find this one as there weren't many people around today. Had a bit of a look around then suddenly spotted something out of the corner of my eye. Great spot and very clever. TFTC.

Had a few options here - upper or lower walk, left side or right [?].
Eventually found, made easier by the paint wearing off the container .
As Astro said; 'perfect fit [^].' TNLNSL.
Thanks for one more Rod81w.

Wouldn't like to try to find this one on a busy day, luckily there was no one about today. TFTC.

NinjaPete and Lainy

This one took me longer than it should. Cache found in the last place I looked. It had to be where it had to be. Perfect fit.

Thanks to Rod81w and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

Sneaky hide thanks

We found ourselves in Adelaide after attending the awesome Red Centre Experience event in Alice Springs.

I actually used to live in Hallett Cove when I was 12, and as such this was our go to beach. We were in the area after shopping at Colonnades so I decided to pop down and check out the beach. I actually found this one in the very first spot I looked, such a nice change from normal!

Thanks for the trip down memory lane, and the nice wander down Beach Rd.

TFTC Rod81w.

Rod81w, I found your cache Boardwalk on 22/4/17.
This is my find #3360 and find #1 today.

Out grabbing a few smiley's.
Very clever hide. We were lucky that today was nice weather for a walk but not nice enough for many to want to be at the beach.

Find #754

A quick find whilst enjoying a walk along the boardwalk and beyond.
A well hidden cache soon found and signed.
TFTC

Found it yesterday and bumped into the owner with G Deakin

Mmmm twice now

Found it thanks to the owner, Rod! It's really well hidden and is a great challenge - which we failed miserably! Thanks Rod - great meeting you!

Great Hide, very muggly area, had to wait a while to pick up, thanks

TFTC

Good hide. Mum spotted the lid and found it.

I was on a special tour today seeking out some of the more difficult to find southern caches with a great group of cachers. A lot of fun was had chasing elephants, lifting lots of rocks, cursing rocks , looking for micros, attending a lunch event and we even saw Superman on our travels .

We had a lot of hunters looking for this one and it turned out to be another one sniffed out by Hevwalker!

TFTC rod81w!

Out & about with a group of enthusiastic cachers after today's event...with GPS in hand & the caching gods in my favour, I was lucky enough to locate this clever hide...Thanks for the cache Rod81w...good job

In a break from rock-shifting, a mass attack was made on a boardwalk, with Hevwalker again proving her worth as a master cacher.

Out with a small group of searchers today with the aim of seeking a few of the challenging to find micros down south and any others along our path, having visited this one once before but it was muggle city, not so today and with many searchers it was soon in hand TFTC Rod81w

In town for the weekend to attend a couple of events on Saturday and Sunday...and to do a few caches as well! There was a group assault organised for some of the "Harder" caches in town. The group congregated at this one and after a short search, Heather had the cache in hand. Stunning views from along here. TFTC

Found It!
The mother and her child that were sitting at GZ seemed a bit confused when 10 people showed up and started looking all over the boardwalk! Soon hevwalker spotted the cache! Some wrestling was done for Geosportz and the attached photo was taken...
TFTC

A group find with locus cache, Laighside Legends, froghoppin, Ismartis, SA Sewer Rats and others during a day of caching in the southern suburbs. This one had beaten me once before, so the CO offered to give me a hand with it next time I was at Christies Beach. The sheer weight of number prevailed here though, and we found it after just a few minutes. TNLNSL

Thanks for the cache on my favourite Adelaide beach. Stunning and definitely underrated.

Three times in one day !
First - just too many muggles.
Second - this one muggle had to quiz me on what sort of insect I was looking for in the rocks and under the boardwalk.
Aaaaarrrgghh.
Third - the Rocky event group turned up, and one of them found it right where I'd just looked - almost - just one space along!!!!
YAY - I can stop singing "Under the Boardwalk" now....

TFTC Rod81w

Out for the day with a few geocachers who like me, all had rocks in their heads
Lunch was an event, so by day's end I had 1 event attended , 2 DNFs and 20 found caches for 20 cool smilies
My son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren also attended the event [:X]
Throughout the day, we geocachers saw an elephant , superman and a geocacher (me ) sitting on a cache

With so many of us looking, it wasn't long before 'found it' was called
Seems there is a little spot, just there, where this cache hides but it didn't elude hevwalker

TNLN. SL. TFTC Rod81w

After being the first to arrive at the previous cache location, we were last to arrive at this one. The hunt was well under way when we arrived. Not long after the sound of "Got it" was heard and the cache was retrieved from o good hide location. Then a tussle started between Mrs y'stassie and Laighside Legends which was captured and had been added to this log. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks rod81w for the cache.

Many thanks to the previous finder for not replacing the cache in the correct spot and just placing it on top of the sand. Cache has been placed back in its original position.

I really must invest in a proper GPS device. My iPhone had me amongst the rocks, then under the Boardwalk, and then back in the rocks. I've read the activity log, and knew this was going to be a tricky one, but with a GZ of 10m+ and frequent muggle activity I wasn't able to zoom in on this one.

Thanks for the hunt. Will come back another time with better technology.

Found it, thanks!

Did not find ran out of time , will be back

Found it with dad when he took me to the beach ages ago

Found it with my dad ages ago. Thanks dad

Way too hard
Something crawled past our legs too scary

After spending a long time last time getting nowhere, this time just walked to GZ and "oh, there for sure" and the cache was in my hot little hands in next to no time. Go figure...Thanks rod81w.

Perhaps a torch?

Spent ages looking, but no luck today.

After a yummy breakfast at the new Deja Vu Café across the road where we had been sitting on the deck admiring the beautiful view of the beach we wandered across to find this one. Various levels had us confused for a moment however once we circled in on Zero at GZ we soon had the cache in hand. TFTC

I got lucky. Muggled by Dylan

Very sneaky

Found on a beautiful Jan. morning

Tricky!

Lip gloss nice cache tftc

Good to have little fingers

4 sets of eyes hunting high and low but to no avail. Few muggles about prevented belly crawl hunting. I will be back......

Nice cache container. Great day to geocache

GPS a little off, but great find.
Tftc

Found this while out hunting for a FTF nearby with Geoson Goldflow and the CO.. nice easy find and now heading back to find that elusive Southern Calamari. Thanks Rod81 for placing and maintaining this cache . cheers Tomboy 711

Am glad I had small hands and someone to hold the torch and guide me

Visited this evening to watch KiwiOzzie make the find. All in good order.

Now that was a challenge! Found by The Boofs TFTC ☺.

Woop woop.. Finally yes it's a smiley, after many many times a trying I found it yay.. Lots of scratches broken nails, muggle waiting and scratches knees I found the little critter Ohhh I must say rod81w nice little hide you got there tftc

Ok so I've tried this one twice, thrice and still no findeth for me, maybe I'm over thinking, maybe the gps jumping with the waves has me off balance clambering on rocks, ducking under, walking over and around and around.. Gonna hit this one up at night when I come back with a torch.. Will be over the moon if I find this one haha outsmarted me for sure hehe

Epic bomb out this time. Thanks rod18w.

Fun hide to find

Nice quiet day down here today. Hardly a person on sight. Good thing I have small hands as I was able to reach in and grab the shiney. TFTC.

Found on second attempt
Was with Sir_Spectre who signed log with me because his pen ran out when he found it

Harry dad and smeegle found it. Tricky one but got it. Couldn't it cos of no pen but thanks

Found it when took daughter down beach, log not signed due to pen out of ink. Can see why peps over look it, good spot

i found with my dad

We were very happy to find this one, don't think we would have seen it from above. TFTF

I kept lookout while Sioux's Tribe did the work. TFC

Took a few minutes to find but saw the shiney eventuality .

Great location!!

Woo hoo! Lovely walk with SLW

I recommend a torch. By golly that one was tricky.

sneaky sneaky hide, found it eventually though, but still bloody hell ugh

*none*

Spent ages with the Elf- felt sure we had spotted a nimble fingers spot- but alas nothing there

Let the daughter loose with the gps and gradually found it, having small fingers helped her with the extraction

Too good for us today , clambered and pulled apart a lot of the fixings , nothing thanks for the hunt

Checked today and still there, happy hunting.

Disappointed

Too well concealed for us.

Groped around a bit and twisted and turned to get a better view but came up empty handed. Checked for a hint and then just gave up.

We think this it has been moved. Was were right on the spot, couldn't find it.

Checked on cache yesterday and is still there, happy hunting

Too many muggles again

Will look again next time

Found it. Warning: Telstra share price will now drop dramatically.

Out with CPWANDERER and Aussie M&M [^]
We had finally made it to the coast via Macclesfield and Morphett Vale.
We wondered if we had bitten off more than we could chew, and plenty of muggles at the beach on a hot day looking at us curiously
Mrs M's eagle eyes and nifty fingers, (plus a handy tool) had us spying a shiny object with great relief [^]
The location was a delightful sight along with finding the cache and the cool change.
Thanks for the sneaky hide rod81w

If I had been by myself I wouldn't have tried this but if there are a few of you, then muggles have a tendency to ignore you. Clambering on rocks is fun no matter what your age and I do not think anyone except CP was bothered by me ducking under the boardwalk and not reappearing. This was a hard find, Aussie Mary had an idea, checked and her patience paid off. The cache was hard to get out, a tool was used and all was good. TFTC, a true challenge. Glad we got it on our first attempt.

This looked daunting on a hot day but Mrs M from AussieM&M made the find!!

Finally can claim a smiley for this one. Managed to get it done after checking out from the Christies caravan park and then finding an accommodating resident who allowed us to park across her driverway entrance. A well hidden cache luckily I managed to get my fingers to it to do the extraction. Thanks to rod81w for placing this cache and for the hints . Fav point alloc

This one got the better of us. it even rained on us. Better luck next time

Checked on cache 2 days ago and had crept from the original position by about 4 mtrs, has been rightfully returned to roughly it's original location. Happy hunting

Tried with Freddo - no luck. Thanks rod81w.
