Tftc. Worked out coordinates from current sign no problem. Easy find with hint.
Extra WP added for the starting sign location. Thanks to @morteraj for alerting us to it being moved yet again.
Thanks to e.gregory1 and esromL for noticing our fat fingered issue. Fixed now.
Found on a trip south with EsromL. Our main aim was to head down to Deep Creek Conservation Park for a couple of days of camping and walking. However, we took the opportunity to grab a few caches on the way down and back as well as a few along the trails.
I had gathered the required information and calculated the final coordinates for this cache quite some time ago while in the area, but wasn't in a position to visit GZ at that time.
Today I noticed that changes had been made to the puzzle in response to the new sign, so we re-calculated GZ based on the new information and found that it led to a different GZ, which was on the same track but a little closer.
Unfortunately we were unable to locate the cache at the calculated coordinates, so we pressed on to those I had previously worked out and found the cache in good condition.
It may be that the sign has changed again since the last update. In any event it looks like another update may be required.
Thanks Brad&Janet for the puzzle and the cache.

Great walk in the park with Csaba! and SupaTurtle. Saw lots of roos. Tra La Laaa
Seems this cache hasn't been found in a while. Arrived at GZ a few days ago to see a lot of new work has been done in the area. A msg to the CO revealed numbers may be different. Once the CO kindly assisted with the final we returned today to walk in to find the cache. Lots of revegetation in the area. Will look amazing in a few years. Thanks
It appears the signs have been upgraded and so the cache page and calculations have been upgraded to fit the new signs. Thanks to @Csaba for the heads up.
We went there during Labour Day long weekend, and gathered the relevant information for this cache. We did it two years ago, but cannot find the record for the final cords, so we did it again.
As the final cords is not on the hiking trail we planned to go, so we will leave this next time.
Thanks, Brad&Janet.

I enjoyed the walk along the ridge with great views. There were plenty of kangaroos around. There is a fenced section with gates to walk through where a revegetation program appears to be taking place. I also got swooped by a magpie along the way to the cache. TFTC Brad&Janet
Jesswrigley and I were staying for an extended weekend just outside Cape Jervis, and today was our first day hiking in Deep Creek Conservation Park. We initially visited Blowhole Beach and did some walking around there, before backtracking and hiking from Cobbler Hill Campground to Aaron Creek Beach collecting geocaches. A massive 30,000 steps walked today!
We collected this multi-cache's (aka try hard mystery cache) clues at the sign during our entrance into Deep Creek, and as the final coordinates had us pegged to do that walk in the afternoon, we returned a few hours later. A walk that made us do a loop around the area, and discovered this cute cache quite quickly once we walked to GZ. An easy Brad&Janet mystery cache indeed, thanks!

A big day out with Freddo and Four Fun.
Trees were climbed, one really big tree, bush walks were had, up a really big hill and lots of driving around the Fleurieu.
After Freddo redoing the maths a few times we amde our way to GZ for an easy find.

Out today with Freddo and Waldron for a tour of the Fleurieu Peninsular and a spot of tree climbing [^]
Both always fun activities.
This was one of the stops along the route and definately a fun find
Cheers & TFTC Brad&Janet

I walked through the fog, talked eye to eye with 1,837 kangaroos, tripped on a rock and spied KI as the fog lifted. Stopped for a well earned break and located the cache. Should be a good day. TFTC
A nice day for a walk and the roos were certainly enjoying the green spring grass. Had to nearly push them out of the way to get through TFTC Brad&Janet.
Spent a wonderful day down at Deep Creek, firstly doing the Aaron Creek Circuit Hike (grabbing caches along the way) and then to Blowhole Beach (grabbing all the caches down there).
Its been 14 months since this one was found, so it was high time to find it! We did the calculations and then headed off to find it. With accurate coords, the geowife found it quickly, and in pristine condition. Log book signed. Admired the stunning views - this is truly a beautiful area and my favourite part of the entire Fleurieu. Thanks Brad & Janet for the cache!.

We had a really nice walk with the 10 of us and Dad showed where we could find some caches.
Found this cache as a Beta Tester a while back. There were probably over 200 kangaroos and wallabies there that morning. Great views from here over to KI as well.

Down this way a few months back and the CO gave us the co-ords to check for this and another nearby. The other one was published before we Beta tested it, but this was not till now. A great spot for a stroll amongst the wildlife and serenity. Masses of roos around here! Also a nice kick off point to take in all the wonderful trails, if you don't mind a little hill effort.
Saw a number of muggles taking in the ambience also.
Nicely hidden with spot on coords too.

29.02.16 tftc took some time to do puzzle as not very good at puzzles, I leave that for my smart friends, enjoyed the walk and views are amazing thanks for bringing me to this part of the world
Found with The X Trailers on holidays here from Qld and earthlight as well, it was a great 4 days with plenty of laughs along the way, toady we are now starting to make the homeward journey and the weather is quite nice to us with only a small passing shower, we had worked out the required info the day before but with so much walking done yesterday we decided to leave this one and the other 2 for today, according to Mrs 3LGs fitbit after we have finished these 3 we have walked around 17 kilometres today, no wonder my legs are so damn sore, with the required info that was really easy to work out we made a quick find at GZ and saw a really cool old truck along the way with a tree growing through it, this was a very enjoyable cache to do and a joint *FTF* for us today. TFTC and a fave as well
Visited the area yesterday and collected the clues we needed to work out new co ords
The day had been a long one so decided to tackle it today
The walk along the trail was enjoyable with earthlight and 3LG

Happy to log a joint *FTF* with 3LG and The X-Trailers.
We were here yesterday and worked the puzzle out.
Decided after the hikes we had that day not to attempt this as we were getting tired.
Back today to find a leisurely stroll to this one after the trails we had done in this park previously.
Sighted what we thought may have been the hiding spot but not to be.
We stopped and explored the old truck.
Now rusty and hardly recognisable,with the tree growing out of it before walking further to locate the cache.
Even spotted a lamb with at least 5yrs of wool growing on him keeping company to many kangaroos near a group of trees.
The views were fab.
A favourite point from me today.
