We really enjoyed the birdlife in here this morning. We found your cache no problems. Signed one of the loose sheets. Was tricky putting it back together. Were sure it doesnt work now the way its meant to. Things are bent. Anyway we did enjoy this and thank you for showing us this place.

I no longer live in the area.. in fact i live 60km away and have done for some 7 years now.... If someone else wishes to take over the cache and its maintenance, feel free. I will give it a few more months then disable it . . .Thanks. It's been awesome, and suprised its lasted as long as it did..

Adelaide and train trip Day 12. Blackwood day 4. After returning from my epic Ghan trip from Darwin to Adelaide yesterday, today was a day with a full day of caching planned. I was targeting the SFE challenges up beyond Norton Summit. I did a lot more walking than I expected and had to change my direction as some of the 'roads' I had targeted turned out to be reserve trails. I had a great day and apart from two Cherryville caches found everything I went looking for. I only just made it home in time, but it was well worth it.As I headed back towards the city and heading home, I stopped at a few suburban caches along the way. The outer container is not as secretive as it might have used to be, it does not fully close anymore.Thanks for the cache Vo0do0-Adelaide44722.13 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & June 2020 Stay on the Path A#417**Albida**

Clocking up cache finds for the June Wheel of Challenges, whilst working toward others challenge goals and milestones!

As previous finders have said, cache is in need of some TLC. Cache container no longer black. What the cache is inside no longer goes together.

Nonetheless, this is a great hide!

Today I had my first half of covid vaccination at the pop up clinic at the Uniting Church. Great service! There were six conveniently located traditionals close by.

This was the second, and like the first,and impressive debut hide. Well done and thanks!
 
05-Apr-21
One of the best hiding ideas seen to date well done! Almost gave up.
Don't be afraid to move things around.

I came past this cache in 2019 and came up short. Back today and the GOS had me in a different spot. After looking around the cache was found nicely hidden and didn’t expect it to be there

This morning with a bit of time to kill I headed to the eastern suburbs to find a few unfound caches before a netting back at Mawson lakes. A nice few hours with 14 finds.

Thanks for the cache

Third time lucky, this time we spotted a very suspicious thing fairly quickly and side enough, we had the cache in hand.

This evening after work, I decided to visit Thorndon Park in the north-eastern suburbs, primarily to complete the Adventure Lab there, but also to have a run and visit a few other geocaches. I had never been here before, and I really enjoyed the experience. The history of one of Adelaide's older reservoirs was interesting to see, and the park was busy with visiting joggers. Just prior to sunset, I visited a few other places in the area before finishing off my day at Wadmore Park. That was another enjoyable park to see, and I was surprised to see the large area of trees/shrubs in what felt like suburbia. Adelaide certainly offers some nice local places that were only known to me through geocaching.

It was starting to get dark now, but decided to walk this park anyway. It only took a minute before finding this cache, with such awesome camouflage and construction! The cache container and logbook were in good shape. A Favourite Point from me for its clever hide. Thanks Vo0do0-Adelaide for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Cheers OZGrumpy!
I'm now located about 40kms further north in the Adelaide Hills.
The cache used to back on to our old house before we moved, i've noticed its been still getting searched/found years down the track, I do try to keep up on the maintenance.. looking back on the logs, its been almost 6 months since ive visited.. might be time to come down with the young lad and have a sticky beak again . .Good to see its still in action and still in the game...

Cheers and Beers! Vo0do0-Adelaide (Mark)

I had been finding big plastic lunch boxes here and arrived at this one in a sparse location relatively. Just a few seconds to spot the hide. New Cacher’s don’t necessarily put things back as they should be. Went back to the car to get supplies, cache book now in a fresh new zip bag, added a pencil and put it all back snug and tight, joined fully. Thanks for the cache Voodoo

Replaced wet log book with new one.
Replaced missing part of cache.
Re-hid cache in originally intended place.
Pencil is missing - didn't have one handy to replace it with. You'll need to bring a writing stick with you if you wish to add to the new diary. Please bear with the caches lack of maintenance I no longer live in the area. I'll try to keep the maintenance up.
Good luck! This one's been around quite a few years now!

I missed the regular Wednesday Walkabout so I was eager to make up with a Friday Frolic. Luckily Anymules was still on holidays and up to a day of caching between an early morning CITO and an evening puzzle solving meeting. Cool

A very clever hide this which has deteriorated a bit and doesn't quite work anymore which made the find a lot easier than it should be. Smile Tried my best but it needs a bit of owner TLC and some pliers to make it work properly. [8)]

To all the "asshats" that dont put it back/wrecked it for others.. its going into maintenance to be repaired.
Such a shame. Funny, i found a piece of a drivers license jammed into the tree right next to the cache, photo and surname on it.. photo taken.

down for repairs until tomorrow.


Cheers V-A

Cache is active and back in the game again.


To Clive: I'm active.. just haven't needed to touch it for over a year, most cachers are sensible. The damage has occurred only in the last week. . i check it most weekends when i walk my dog.. its not far from where i live...Its been fixed/replaced again. Sorry you had to find it on your 3rd attempt ruined. Sad

Maybe come have another look and sign the book to say you been here!


Thanks.

I have another cache in the planning stages. will be a Multi-cache. Not 100% sure on the final location... keep an eye out.

Out with SA SewerRats and BlackAdders for a day of laughs and caching Cool
Well we were really out to do cache maintenance on SA SewerRats' series however we got slightly distracted by shiny things on the way Surprised and then had to turn back to go night caching with a group and so we never actually made it to the series Wink
Instead we made a beeline for a FTF and then just toured the Barossa Valley while Crazy GeoDriver (Mr SA SewerRats) tested out the new geovehicle .
9 Smile cache finds for me by the end of the day's and night's caching [^]

Met up with a large group of geocachers to do some night caches and this one was on our way through to another nightcache so we just had to stop and find it Smile

Tonight I joined a number of other teams to complete this cache and others whilst walking for over 2 hours in the area!

We got to the designated area before dark and chatted to teams I'd not had the pleasure to meet, and had a good old chin wag with the 'usuals' Wink. I estimate there were about 30 people here tonight and as the sun set we took off.

The kids joining us were fantastic and managed all of the walking so well (even the beautiful little 4yo twins who put their hands on this very clever hide!) . What fun we had on a cold, but perfect evening for a long walk.

Thanks for the cache Smile
 
16-Jul-16
A perfect evening for finding some caches at night with a group of enthusiastic cachers. Meeting at the carpark with about 30 or so others we all wandered the track...we could not go past this one...with a lot of eyes & torches it still took longer than it should have to find...the twins had fun stamping the log book for everyone...a clever hide...Thanks
 
16-Jul-16
Joined the group assembled out the front of the conservation park this evening.
We had fun, laughs and stories on the trail.
Lovely to meet new friends and catch up with old friends on the walk. TFTC

We were lead off the track for a nearby traditional, (with a group assault)

"Beware of Snakes" Yes the snakes were there with a horde of other mad persons looking for plastic containers in the bush using multi million dollar machines. A not so quick find by the group but a find none the less and a smiley gained. TFTC

Did this one whilst doing a group assault on night caches in the area. Took longer to find than it should have with so many eyes looking for it. TFTC

I missed out on this date 4 years ago, so this time around I wasn't going to miss out...
I had saved this cache that is nearby home just for this date...
After work Megs and I went for our walk through Wadmore and grabbed this one on the way.
Great hide. I love it when a bit of effort goes into the camo for a hide. TFTC!!!!
