OTD 27.1 January 27th Kuitpo Colony, South Australia, Australia
By 3LG on 11-Mar-15. Waypoint GC5Q36K

Travelling with iluvtrekking from our home state of WA. Staying in Aldinga a few days while ranging to the surrounds to grab some finds. Thank you for the hide. LNCU

Travelling with richlink on our Annual Caravan Geocaching road trip, using geocaching as our guide. We're staying in in the area for a few days, hunting down some nearby caches in this lovely part of SA. Thanks for the cache. Just a slight detour off our intended track and we quickly turned our frown upside down

A not so quick find but we got there in the end. Thanks.

On a solo hike around Kyeema. Very cold but clear morning. Unfortunately a DNF here.

Out today targeting a few previous DNF’s, if possible I want to turn some sad blue faces into happy smilies

Also targeting Tree Fishing caches…….I’m currently 43 of 50 for the GC9RQRK SFE Challenge - The Lawrie Keats Challenge

Who knows, might be the odd cache throughout todays journey as well

A quick find, stamp and return here today
Don’t know how I missed this previously, must have been dog gone tired

Found while touring around Kuitpo forest and it’s surrounds. This cache is one that was found today. Persistence payed off and the cache was eventually found. Cache is still in position and in good condition. Cheers.

Find #4878 on 28 Dec 2022.
TFTC LíB!

Not my day for this one. Maybe next time.

A nice drive on the back roads past this one today cache easily found and is all good

Today I headed down to McLaren Vale to Strathalbyn via Kuitpo Forest finding the caches in the area consisting of walks and drive bys, total of 45 finds for the days

Thanks for the cache

So wet, so slippery. Add our name to the DNF list. Thanks LiB.

No luck today

We thought we would continue this section of the power trail, but the parking was poor, the road was busy, and we had not luck finding the cache.

Yet another DNF in this series - I must be getting tired

TFTC

Out trying to turn some DNF in to can’t believe we didn’t see this one before, tftc

Doing a mixture a hiking and driving for the day picking up caches. Thanks

Sadly not today

Camping at Mt Compass for Easter we headed out with the bike onboard to tackle some caches and explore the region using Geocaching as our tour guide.

Easy one

Thanks for this Traditional Cache

Looked all around and made some climbs

A fun day out with @Davidwazza ! TFTC!

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to Kuitpo with our mountain bikes to ride the Kuitpo / Prospect Hill trails. For a warm-up, we first stopped off at the northern-eastern side of the vicinity around Choorkaloo Camp Site to find a few remaining *Animal Facts* caches and others around the place. We then had a proper session on our mountain bikes, before closing out the day with a short walk in the southern side in Kyeema Conservation Park, and a few drive-by caches between Meadows and Echunga.

We managed to find this cache on a random broken stick next to the tree very quickly. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. I'm guessing this isn't how the CO left this cache, and so returned back to the car to cut the existing cable ties, and then reattached with new cable ties to a nearby tree. Hence, it should be more secure and a sustainable hide now. Thanks 3LG/@LíB for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/@jesswrigley stamp.

TFTC. Having a day out with geokids and crystal1984 in Kuitpo forest.️ pulled up and it was right there looking at us. Great cache

While staying in the beautiful Mount Compass Caravan Park we opted to try for the OTD January series plus any others nearby. We found 32 and had 3 DNF’s.

We were delighted at the condition and maintenance that has obviously gone in to the caches and thank the CO’s very much for that.

Many thanks 3LG

We are down this way for the long weekend to to catch up with and spend some time with our great friends, Dunmowin. it was cold, and wet and miserable today, but thankfully the company was awesome! This one took a little longer than it should. Then I checked the DT rating and we soon had the cache in hand. TFTC

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.

Based at Willunga house-sitting for a few weeks, our newest best friends SnappyTomCats came down to see us for the long weekend. How do we entertain them? Go find some caches? Colder today so dressed accordingly, it was back up the range.

Only five minutes from home it was raining!

Signed empty log book. Thanks LiB - hope you a feeling a bit better by the time you get today's logs

Cache still in place, replaced log book, etc.

Very good spot!

Good one! With qt_kt

This section of the series got a bit challenging with dodgy phone reception but I still managed to find them all that I attempted. Thanks for the series 3LG.

A past DNF now resolved

Enjoying a day of geocaching in South Australia. TFTF.

This was a tough one. So much bush to search. Thanks for the hide.

27th eluded me. I didn't find this one, however my GPS was all over the place.

Nice find while in the area with tmann421.
Really enjoying travelling around and discovering more about these areas.
Thanks for all the effort put into these placements

Exploring the area going from cache to cache with woolwood9.
We really enjoyed finding the good containers and visiting the nice locations.
*Another find for us here! SL TFTC*

We love the OTD series, this one was fairly tough as we started it at nearly 9-30pm and it was quite cold and windy in places.

Some caches hadn't been found for a long time and we had trouble finding some so we ended up with 3 DNF's this January trail.

TFTC. Found on our 20km walk along the Heysen Trail.

Needed to get a few caches before I go home so came out here for a drive

Found it and we are nearly done for the day in more ways than one.

Quick find. Tftc

Done

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

Here's another cacher guilty of not checking the attributes thoroughly.

Spent a couple of days at Kuitpo with the 4WD club and got in some caching as well. TFTC.

YPUN. Spent my alloted time searching but came up empty.

Revisiting the website, this time I paid more attention to the attributes and, if I had done that earlier, I may not have had a DNF.

Beautiful day for it TFTC

Beautiful day for geocaching in the bush so decided to have a crack at January, our first foray into the OTD's. Most caches popped up quickly but a a couple had me going. Thanks for the caches 3LG.

This was to be our final full day in SA before heading back to Perth tomorrow afternoon . It has been a fantastic caching trip with old mate KrabiBoy and we have been flying through as many caches as we can manage . We targeted Willunga today and then cached our way northeast towards another OTD series [^]. Another rippa day!

I had been eyeing off an interstate trip for some time now and made plans to head to SA to power through the geoart trails over here . I roped in my geo buddy Krabiboy to join me and we set about solving [?] caches and highlighting Jasmer caches that aren't available over in WA. Our adventure took us from the CBD over to the Yorke Peninsula and then back across to the Murray Bridge area . We were relentless in chasing down the finds and picked up as many as we could in the week that we had available. Due to the park and grab nature of our visit, the log books which weren't able to accommodate the ink stamp we had made were signed with the initials 'jk'! Fave points will be awarded for those caches which are considered awesome

A massive thanks here to 3LG for placing this cache here and for tempting us to venture over to this area. Cheers!

jinta29 found your cache OTD 27.1 January 27th today. This is my find #8114 and find #115 today. I was able to get my name in the log book here and we replaced the cache as we found it. Thanks once again 3LG for placing this and bringing us to this part of the world!

jinta29 and I are in town this week after many months of planning for a week to remember. We are heading to the Yorke Peninsula, Murray Bridge and as many places in between as we can get to. This was one we found along the way.

TFTC 3LG.

3LG, I found your cache OTD 27.1 January 27th on 30/4/17.
This is my find #4961 and find #115 today.

Bike riding with Wal & Ol today and found the cache containing the original log quite quickly. Did not come across the replacement cache previously mentioned. TFTC!

Two penguins and two horses went bike riding... found with Pony1966 on a fab day for a bike ride. Didn't find the replacement, but found the original. TFTC

Locating this cache was a BIG problem for me today
Michael kindly offered to go where I feared to tread
He hung around for awhile seeking the illusive cache following our suggestions on where the cache could be with the help of LInda and myself
Sadly even he was unable to locate the cache so a replacement was put into place
Many a joke was said as we seeked this cache
tftc

Not many left to go now. TFTC 3LG

TFTC found eventually

And that my lalaloopsie is this series finished. Tftc 3lg

Apty was very, very close at one point, but I found it lol

Boom! Guy Fawkes was a good lesson in how NOT to go about blowing up Parliament.
We did the drunken bee dance and I probably nearly stood on the bounty.

Found by The Boofs TFTC .

TFTC - signed log after a longer hunt around for this one

out for the day with sir_spectre doing the otd trail, some harder than others and hoping the rain stays light

i dragged out jacknor to the forest in the rain, we thought so start the jan otd trail, some harder than others but all the caches found where in good condition.

Such a beautiful autumn day to spend some time in the Kuitpo area and to enjoy another of the OTD series. It's always interesting to read the information and we appreciate your effort to vary the hides. All the caches were found in good condition, although we did have trouble with sat lock in a few spots. We looked high to start with but found the cache when we broadened our search.

Thanks for the cache and the series!

You were too good for us today. We shall return.

Out to do some caching in the area with my geodaughter. We started this series today at 12pm. We didn't have any intention of doing all 31 days but by 5pm with a lunch break in Mt Compass in the mix we had completed the series. We had a great day working together to find them all. It is obvious why this series won the best series award. TFTCs

After dealing with a number of routine matters this morning, we had a few hours this afternoon to cache. We chose the OTD January series for our focus. We managed to find all caches in the series, most quite quickly but some took a couple of minutes of hunting. There were a variety of hides. In all instances, the caches and contents were in good condition. Thanks 3LG for this cache and the January series.

Time 6:27:00 PM
Cache # 55 of 60 for this Sunday down south.

The Parrot was on a roll to try and get closer to the 10, 000 mark as this last 500 seems to be taking forever.

I had a great day with Mrs Parrot heading to kuitpo and checking some trails that have been in GSAK for far to log,

I worked on Animal Facts, Are you kidding me and the OTD Jan series.

A very hot day up this way today, and I really enjoyed the opportunity to do another OTD month, and lucky for me no DNFs on this one, although a few were a bit tough to spot.

TFTC 3LG, much appreciated.

Visited a cousin in Normanville that I haven't seen for nearly 20 years the drive home was a perfect excuse to cache in an area I've never been to before. Stupidly however I didn't load all of January's caches and was missing 5 the rest were found today, not the easiest of series most not drive bys (good!) Thanks 3LG you have zillions of great caches!! Sorry for generic log

Mogni was in town for one of her flying visits. She had allocated today to catch up and do some caching. So far she hadn't done a OTD series so that would be the order of the day and if time some Cats and Dogs. And of course any other that we were just passing. All up 91 finds and only 3 DNFs.[^]
This was the series selected. This one took a few wrong turns before we found it out in the open. Put back where we thought it should have been. Thanks 3LG for placing this cache and series

This was my first attempt at any of this series.... out with brisal5 getting my numbers up for the year Thanks for the series.

Found it.

Found it.

Fireworks - yay!

So this started as a late night Halloween run, but ended up mostly past midnight.
Only ten months since January - better late than never
Despite having Chloe the geopup come along for the ride,
the only things I managed to scare were a few kangaroos, two foxes and some bunnies.
All finds made by torch and moonlight. No ghouls were disturbed at all.

Nice to have some easy drive-bys after a warm weekend of hiking and camping nearby

TFTC

we though we would mix this up a little. We turned this in to what we like to call "speed Caching".
Rules: drive to location. jump out of car and find cache in less than 45 seconds.....
We won some, we lost some but it made for a fun day.
tftc

I thought I'd do this January series in September - much more pleasant weather and wildflowers are out!

Thanks

Thanks for the cache 3LG

While the elder of the 2 daughters hiking with the Cubs in Kyeema, it was up to the younger Geo daughter and I to go out and collect some caches. We had previously found a few of this series, but wanted to get a few more. We weren't going to have enough time to collect the all, but still a good number today. Only a couple of issues where caches took us a little longer due to tree cover and dodgy Sat lock on the GPSr.

Thanks to the CO for all the work you go to withg your caches and series. They have been great.

Out for a day of caching and a picnic lunch with ROMA123 and Madham02 on this beautiful sunny day. It was decided that we would have a go at the OTD series and we started at 1.1 - where else would you start. [?] We had a successful day finding all but one that we think is missing plus a few others along the way. [^] Our picnic was great, a well deserved feast to break the day up.
Thanks for the cache and the series 3LG.

Quick find TFTC!!

Easy Find, TFTC

Very wet underfoot but not enough to stop geocaching for the day. TFTC

Day Mount Pleasant to McLaren Vale. Staying at the caravan Park
The weather once again turned rainy as we headed out into the forest to find January caches.
We missed 2 but that could have been as we rushd because of the weather.
Thanks for placing this cache 3LG

Why can't trees act as phone signal repeaters. Can someone ask the CSIRO to work on that one please.

Still in the black hole, but many bright spots by finding caches and grabbing smileys TFTC

Today we started with the January power trail, finding them in day order .
This took far too long to find - if only we'd read the D/T rating before we started - doh [:o)]! TNLNSL.
Thanks again 3LG.

Another series which has been well done. Thanks 3LG

We found 27.1 when we were looking for somewhere to park for 28.1 then JF & I walked up the hill with the geodogs. Quickly located .SL. TFTC 3LG
