Found it! Saw a nice brown snake just before finding this cache. And did see lots of roos too. Like others, I didn't know the boardwalk existed. Definitely needed after seeing the snake! TFTC.
On roll with this third find near the boardwalk on the 8th of June. Great spotting by a fellow geocaching buddy. There sure were a lot of kangas in the nearby paddock.
TFTC! Goddaughter is hoping there's more boardwalk ahead. She's feeling a bit snakey.
Luckily for me the drizzle had stopped by the time I started this walk.
A fun walk through the wetlands.
Liked the diversity of cache containers. Not sure if it's always been like that.

Quite a late log for the boardwalk series. Stayed at a campground nearby last year and planning on coming back soon, this time will be better as I have learned to be more organised with geocaching by planning ahead especially for mystery caches and earthcaches. As we weren’t allowed to have campfires back then I figured I’d warm up by going for a hike and find some geocaches! Did the boardwalk from 6 to 1 rather than 1 to 6. Thanks for all the caches!
Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.
Our last full day in the Barossa and another chilly day, a perfect day for caching. Thanks 3LG.

3rd find for the night.. woo hoo! On a night hike through Mt Crawford, hoping to tick off some of the caches out here. TFTC
Camping at Wirreanda Farm in Mt Crawford for the Easter long weekend. Had the mountain bike with so some caching had to be done. An enjoyable day out today with 10 caches, enjoying the serenIty of the forest. This cache was one that was found today.
This one took a bit longer than it should have to find, was searching the wrong spot. As I went to leave, the cache was spotted just tucked away. All in good condition here. Thanks for the enjoyable series.

Today we decided to head up to mount Crawford and do the board walk trail followed by the odd trad there and back, a nice to get out and about.
This was a really nice walk all the caches along the trail are in good condition and easy finds.
Thanks for the series

Hitting the boardwalk on this beautiful Spring day. TFTC
Good sized seat for a cache stop!

Almost walked straight past it as we stopped to take photo of the kangaroos. We’re getting in a spot of caching before the Trail Running SA Mt Crawford challenge tomorrow. TFTC.
Found it, it was a nice day for a walk and decided to look for my fist one. Really cool.
I spent an enjoyable day exploring and geocaching around the Mt Crawford area. Weather was good for geocaching and thankfully no rain.
I really enjoyed the walk along the boardwalk. I stopped to chat to an elderly German couple collecting mushrooms. Not the red ones found here amongst the pine trees.
All caches on this little trail were found.
Thanks for the cache 3LG.

I think this was the one we couldn't find at first, but found on the way back. Co-ords took us to a big pile of rotting away timber - it's not there. Fluked spotting it when we were on the return journey before starting to look in the timber again. We certainly saw lots of kangaroos as it was late in the day we did this walk. Lovely!
First scootering lesson for keeponretrieving down with no slips or falls. I took it over the boardwalk and had mild worries it was rotten but made it safely.
Kangaroos views is well named! No kangas today but we could imagine it. Instead many ladybugs were flying on us and beautiful butterflies

Forget kangaroo view, lady bugs everywhere! Certainly was a beautiful view.
Decided to let the boys (Will and Haiden) find this one, courtney and I were sick of carrying the team
A couple of weeks ago i drove past this series and thought: "Next time i will come do" and today is that day, Wednesday the 18th of November 2020, blissfully unaware that we'd all be locked down due to COVID for a week as from midnight [:o] That sinister character has raised it's prickle-ball-head again [:(!]
The GeoMobile was parked in the suggested area and i went on foot to do all 6 hides.
I didn't see any Kangaroo's but with all that green grass and water available i'm sure there would be plenty but the heat of the day would see them lying under trees i'm guessing.
The cache was found and it's log signed at 12:02.

Today, gridge98 and I headed east to Mount Crawford with our bikes. I had a few targets that I had wanted to get to today, but as always, I had more targets and less time to do all of them. Our first cluster of caches was aimed at *SFE Challenge - Milestone 10,000 finds* with the *Big Fat* geocaches nearby as a loop. That was some solid riding up/down the hills, and a few geocaches were time consuming due to their hide types. After a quick Williamstown bakery lunch, we returned to another section in Mount Crawford, and concentrated on the Rocky Paddock campground area with a number of *Animal Facts* geocaches found. Gridge98 departed home, but I had another couple of rides up Tower Hill Track, and also around Rocky Paddock along Gordon Road. I completed the day with a short walk up Mount Crawford boardwalk, and a few miscellaneous finds on my return home. It was a brisk day with cold winds and a few intermittent drizzles, but otherwise not a bad day to be on the bike.
I only had two of these boardwalk caches remaining, so with a small amount of free time, I went for a jog past these locations. Interesting to see a random horse shoe above this geocache - perhaps Lucky the leprechaun has visited here recently? Otherwise, the cache was quickly found. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks 3LG/@LíB for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Oh mi goodness, the view from here is fantastic! Saw the Roos grazing and they fled for their life when a pet dog saw them. Gees the dog ran fast, but the roos were faster!
On my way to Nuriootpa to catch up with friends...
The sun was trying very hard to shine through and the rain had stopped by the time I arrived at the Carpark...
Donned my raincoat, just in case, and headed off for a lovely walk through the forest on the boardwalk...
No kangaroos were seen here from the Boardwalk but I did see some one the road side yesterday coming home...
I replaced the tatty logbook...

Second find and found by Feetlet (with a bit of prompting). We saw a kangaroo while driving past on our way here but by the time we were walking the Roos had cleared out, unfortunately.
While the view was devoid of kangaroos we enjoyed locating the cache and having a breather. TFTC
Ironically, no kangaroos to be seen as I passed by here, but there’s plenty down near 4/5/6. TFTC
Found on a beautiful afternoon in the forest by the Aussie branch of Dobie's Pride/GronwoldFamily. What could be better... a great day, solitude and lots of geocaches in the area - Perfect. Thanks for this cache 3LG!
