Suspect this has again gone missing - possibly thanks to the overzealous council maintenance workers.
A quick find on a Sunday arvo and surprisingly there was no one around. TFTC
Since the weather was finally great again and I only had to work am shift I figured, chasing the sun by doing geocaching would be a good idea. Also, today is international geocaching day and the railway track was still on my bucket list. So together with Nick we went for a nice walk, had a good chat and especially fun to find all the great Caches along the way. Though it's pretty sad that there is no train to Mount Gambier anymore. Also, I only saw the railway track so far when I passed the main road into the Mount. Sorry for all the phone calls but I guess you are just the best "wild card" for being successful here 
TFTC and greetings, Jassi

out with the co for a maintenance run on the whole rail trail. Found dodging rain showers on a cold wet day.
Found on a day out caching in Mount Gambier.
Thanks for placing the cache for us to find.

We searched high and low, and also under the platform after reading the activity notes. Unfortunately it looks like council has been through and done a clean up of all rubbish under the platform.. including the geocache
Our first visit to this spot coincided with lunch time and a steady stream of muggles as well as those choosing to eat their lunch at the tables on the platform. We decided to join the lunchers before moving on and returning later in the day.
On our return our GPS was rather unstable so we searched under, on,over an in but failed to locate a cache. We hope it was fatigue at the end of the day and not mia. A DNF for us here today.

With the drizzle starting to fall,
this area was devoid of munching muggles today
Which made it easier to search for this cache.
But no amount of crawling around,
poking around,
or peering around,
could find me this cache

Während ich einen Teil dieser Runde absolvierte suchte und fand ich auch diesen cache. TFTC
Another quick find while the kids enjoyed the nature play.
It was in plain view when I approached, but tucked it away where I’m pretty sure it should have been (sorry if it’s not quite right, but it wouldn’t have lasted long where it was).
(No writing stick to record find, so happy if owner wants to delete my find)

Last finder? had replaced well out of reach, but I have my trusty walking pole with me and can reach incredible distances with it and I was able to retrieve it. Lots of kids play around the water here today, but they weren’t worried about me. Someone eating at GZ delayed me while I took in the scenery and did some rubbish removal.
Out and about caching the MGRL trail with earthlight, Cabbos and joined by my muggle sister.
Overcast and occasional drizzle. Time to enjoy a bite to eat and a short rest.

Well here we are sitting on the viewing platform eating our lunch.. Beautiful area.! Ducks come swimming over and up the bank hoping for a crumb..Oh.. we found the cache first .. now having a spell till we tackle the rest of the trail .. Thanks mogni for the series
Finishing a few on this section of the trail and realised I'd forgotten to log this one 12mths ago with my grandies. Don't know what date it was and it had a new log in it so I signed it again today. Tftc
A late night caching maintenance run, sadly no cache spotted here. I have replaced, please return out of sight of nosy mugggles.
There is a lot of metal in the area, which increases the difficultly of the Cache as it plays with GPS Signals
Not the nicest morning for a bicycle ride, but had a rare free Saturday and been meaning to clean up these caches for a while. Luckily we made it home just before the skies opened! Thanks!
Thank you. Lovely park to explore with the geokids. What a great place Mount Gambier has been. So much to see and do. Cheers
A lovely walk and very interesting. We are visiting the Mount for a week of golf and are collecting some caches as we go. Good hides TFTC
Found on a tour of the town with Mogni! Great weather and a fantastic part of the planet. 
Nice to have the cache CO of so many of the Mount caches with me on this occasion.
Found as part of my 2017 Alexandra Mega experience. This cache added to the fun and enjoyment of my trek to the east and back from Adelaide. While there were a few thunder storms, there were mainly clear skies and I never saw a snake! 
Thanks to mogni and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

Found on earlier trip. Forgot to log. Hope owner lets me log this one.... TFTC.
Along with Freddo and Team Waldron I spent a fun weekend in the South East area finding many interesting and some challenging caches.
This was one of our finds along the way, in an obvious spot [^]
