I had a hint from my cousin who had already found it so knew what I was looking for. No good though. Spent a lot of time searching. Thanks
 
19-Mar-22
You pwned us n00bs.

We will return.

Look look look. You are only as good as your next find. Needed my caching buddy with the laser eyes to spot this!! (note we tried before with no luck!)

Thanks and clear skies from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!
 
26-Feb-22
Despite a good search of the area and a few promising spots, the cache unfortunately remained unfound. Will have to return later for another go at this one.
 
12-Oct-21
Tricky but found eventually. Will drive you nuts. Thanx
 
08-Oct-21
Found it TFTC Found in good condition. Welll I had the right idea (have seen this before), but I was looking down not up grrrrr
 
28-Aug-21
You are only as good as your next find. Too good for us today. Clear goomy skies.
 
28-Aug-21
No luck for me here today despite me putting in the time. I have no idea of I fixated in a certain life type so it looks like this one will need to be another time for me.
 
13-Jul-21
Must be a good day for me a second tricky find after 3 previous attempts. Tftc
 
13-May-21
I’d parked my car on Kalbeeba Rd, and had a look at this one first. Bit pressed for time today and it looked like this one would take some patience. So I moved on to #1 and #2, then had a second look on my way back. Oh, there it is! I do believe this is my 400th LíB find, so all in all, a FP is in order!
 
03-Jan-21
Today was the Big Birthday Bash in the Barossa. After a big caching day out I wasn’t sure how I would fare today, but still managed around 20.
Really enjoyed my walk along the rail trail and then headed to the Birthday party which was lots of fun.
I then did some of the lab caches in the area but ran out of time so I guess I will be heading back .
Thanks as always to all the CO for the hides.
Sadly a dnf for me here
 
16-Nov-20
Maybe next time Smile
 
16-Nov-20
One of the best Cache we found so far. Thank you so much. Took us two tries. Smile
 
27-Aug-20
This one took us two trips and 4 collective episodes of searching (once on the way out and again on the way back along the Trail).

Even with a hint from the CO, we were cache-less for quite a while, and we were going to give up again, when geowife suggested I check in one spot again. That wasn't it, but I kept going for a few seconds longer and finally found that very well camouflaged cache. (Hidden in plain sight - almost.)

Another great adventure. Thanks LiB for the fun and a FP4U.
 
26-Jul-20
Too good
 
22-Mar-20
Thanks, LíB for your considerable efforts on these bike tracks. Hopefully, we will be able to return one day to complete them. This is our last day of caching in SA before racing back to the West before the borders close.

This cache was found on our Geocaching road trip from Perth to Millicent for the now-cancelled, GeoVenture2020 Event.

A new year so lets go out and find some caches
Thought this was going to be a power trail.
I sure got that wrong.
This was tough if you are going out for a bike ride picking up a few caches along the way.
Some very clever hides along the way.
I have just got a new bike to replace the one I use to go to the train station and back for work and wanted to take it iout for a spin.
So this was more about picking up a few caches along the way and enjoying the ride.
I spent less than 2 minutes at each spot and I didnt come up with many finds between Roland flat and Lyndock given how good the hides were.
A lovely dy for a cycle but as usual everything is shut down on a public holiday in the barrossa.
That is one great track.

Found while on an evening walk to tick off some munzees and caches. Easy find, TFTC
 
20-Oct-19
Great hide! Thanks to pretty much every previous logger! TFTC
 
17-Oct-19
We had visited this location with cache blindness many times before, but after a clue from the CO (thank you) we were able to find it today. Appreciate the thought that has gone into this trail.

03-Oct-19
Found on my ride today, thanks
 
25-Aug-19
Mr Tardis was out on a nice spring day for a bike ride along the first part of the Jack Bobridge series. I really enjoyed the ride and the effort put into this cache series, with a variety of different finds.

This find took a bit of searching - a really nice container. A favourite for sure.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache LíB.

After being not able to find 3&4 in this series last year, Davidwazza and I went for a short walk to both.
This one needs a dangerous rating as almost got knocked out cold by a tree branch.
Today I headed home from blanchetown, decided to do a few caches around Nuriootpa, then headed further south to meet up with Davidwazza, we cached for a few hours are Gawler before the international geocaching day event.

17-Aug-19
On International Geocaching Day, it was a day of geocaching centering around Gawler and the associated celebratory event held at lunch. I woke up early to complete the 5 km Parkrun in Gawler, which was a new location for me, and then I met up with [@gridge98](http://coord.info/PRGKDMY) to drive around the various caches in the vicinity. After a few geocache finds in central Gawler including Clonlea Park, we then completed a few mini power trails such as the serenity series and Meat Trail.
After lunch, I went solo to continue solving multi-caches and collecting some older 2007 caches in Gawler. As it got dark, I drove along the Gawler - One Tree Hill Road to collect the intermittent caches along there, to arrive home just after dark to discover the whole blocks had no power for another few hours. A nice day out and finding in good weather.

[@gridge98](http://coord.info/PRGKDMY) and I came past two of these Jack Bobridge Trail caches as he had DNFs here previously. I hadn't attempted this first section of the trail, but between two experienced pairs of eyes and a nice sunny day, we thought we would nail these caches. This one had us looking a fair bit, and it was [@gridge98](http://coord.info/PRGKDMY) who suspected the cache type. Looked all along the ground and then had to hop across the pipe to search further. We had nearly given up, and so attempted to call the CO with no answer, and then tried another PAF. And as luck would have it, as we finally started chatting, [@gridge98](http://coord.info/PRGKDMY) made the find. Wow, that's an incredible camouflaged hide. Right when [@gridge98](http://coord.info/PRGKDMY) ran underneath the tree and hit a pretty study tree hard! I'm sure he got a big bump from that, but no matter, as it probably helped him spot it. Great work [@LíB](http://coord.info/PR8KEM6) (3LG), thanks.

After a great event, it was time for find a few caches on International Geocaching Day. Owl headed to a past DNF, only to discover that there had been some serious pruning since her last visit and the cache was now well out of her reach. Fortunately, the CO and Earthlight were passing and took pity on a still feeble Owl. The CO did some impressive gymnastics and retrieved the cache for Owl. A great series and personal cache delivery? That's fabulous caching service and worth the promised favourite point!
 
21-Jul-19
Found while out for a walk with the kids, TFTC
 
23-Jun-19
Looked for soooooo long before one of our minicachers found it. Great hide. Easy find, TFTC Jones Family
 
01-Jun-19
Didn't find today.
 
22-Apr-19
Very clever TFTC
 
05-Apr-19
Too good for us today. Even a PAF didn't help. I don't think I'll be back.
 
05-Apr-19
The only DNF of the day. Owl was woozy from the heat and desperate for coffee. Even a PaF didn't help and the Fish bravely said he felt the same way. They will be back!
 
25-Mar-19
Today we headed north from where we are staying to look for caches along the Jack Bobridge Trail. We looked for over 45 of them and found nearly all. We want to go back and look again for the two that we missed now that we have had the opportunity to read other logs. The caches today that we visited were outstanding. There is such a variety of high quality hides. So much care and effort has gone into the design, construction and placement of the caches. It was a very enjoyable caching experience.

This cache proved to be very elusive. We searched on two occasions for a total of about 30 minutes before this sneaky cache was located. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks 3LG for this cache and a very high quality series.
 
08-Mar-19
TFTF!
 
07-Mar-19
The weather was perfect for caching today and so was the series of caches we had decided to look for!

3LG has done an amazing job on a series of very clever hides - we were constantly impressed by the variety, cleverness and trouble taken over each one.

F-Llama and Miss_Bovine are looking forward to returning another time to find more along the Jack Bobridge Trail.

Of the 43 we looked for today, we found all except 4. This was one of the first we looked for and we will return to look again now that we know how clever and varied the hides are.

Took a while but eventually we got the right angle.

Increased the terrain stars on this hide, it's still here & blending in nicely
 
01-Sep-18
We decided to get a bit of exercise by walking a section of the trail and thought while we're at it we might as well find some caches. It seems a long time between finds these days! Unfortunately we didn't find this one. TFTC 3LG
 
08-Aug-18
Thorough search but this one beat me today.

Felt like we had pine cones for brains after hunting for this ... left feeling nutty with no cache in hand.

No luck today here .. gave it a good crack before deciding we should press on.

Coming back another day as I thought I had to climb over the pipe, but perhaps not.

Nice craftsmanship gone into this one. It took a little while to locate.

This morning Mr froghoppin and I walked the Jack Bobridge Trail from #1 to #49. With brisal5 & AnyMules joining us between #38 - #49. We walked from Gawler East to Altona (about 16kms) Todays step count 24,000. I enjoyed this trail immensely and appreciated the effort gone into the hides. I look forward to coming back to complete the rest of the trail.

TFTC & the series 3LG. Smile

Had some time, whilst out this way, to do some walking to some of these.
Nice work on all the different hide types, didn't see too many duplicated hides/cammo. A couple were too good and DNFs resulted...

Thanks for the hides and exercise...

Heading out to Nurri with Sir_Spectre and getnict caching the day away. Enjoyed the craftiness and effort put into this trail. Some hides were found quickly and others had us scrathing our heads

Tftc 3LG for a great trail.
Found on 1 December 2017
Find # 2704
 
01-Dec-17
found with rod81w and getnict. over 3.5 km walk on this stretch then 1 more to go and then dinner.
 
01-Dec-17
Headed out to Nuriootpa with sir_spectre and Rod81w to cache the day again. We had seen the weather reports so all came prepared with extra clothes. It is rare for us all the have a weekday off together and we weren't going to let weather reports predicting 50-100mm of rain dampen our caching spirits.

Headed out early this afternoon to walk part of the Jack Bobridge Trail and earn some more coins for the crew... as well as smileys of course!! We started off doing every second cache, so that could have some to find on the way back to the car. This has been an enjoyable geocaching trail so far, with a range of different hides to keep us guessing. TFTC 3LG... we look forward to headed back out soon to work our way through completing the series.
 
19-Jul-17
This was one of a few found while out hunting on the Jack Bobridge trail. Enjoyed the variety of hide styles, always wondering what was going to be next. Most were quick finds, but a few kept me going for a while.
Thanks for the cache and the series 3LG

11-Jun-17
June long weekend and a perfect day for a trail. TFTC
 
02-Jun-17
With the weather and Mrs Emilyangels health we always have an excuse not to get out, but after hearing so much about this trail we thought we would come up and get the driveby caches..... at the first stop we loved the trail, loved the flat ground, the views, the quietness.
So we hit the pavement in a chilly walk with the kids.
Caching is so much easier when the kids act normal , tonight was not one of them nights and our night ended with a broken GPS and 2 grazed boys after they learnt why people dont run while piggy backing each other.
Awesome night out thankyou, we look forward to doing the rest, very sneaky hides.

Picked up AnyMules from his salubrious car parking spot in the heart of the city and headed north for a rendezvous with Aussie M&M and mogni for a day's walking along the Jack Bobridge Trail. Cool
Despite guessing what to look for when we arrived at GZ it still took us a little while to locate it. Another great hide. Smile
Thanks 3LG for this cache and great series. Big Grin
 
25-Apr-17
Out for a big day of geocaching with Aussie M and M, brisal5 and Anymules. We were planning to finish off the Jack Bobridge trail but.... lunch got in the way. I had a ball laughing at our hunting attempts at times.
Thanks for the great series.

Well done 3LG.

I went to the Barossa for the weekend for my granddaughter’s wedding. Of course my husband went in my daughter’s car. Lol

It kept me on my toes all the time.

Found – 70

DNF – 2 

Not bad for the weekend. 

Sometimes I used my little bike.

Sometimes I walked.

Sometimes I had to use a stick or a little ladder to get it as I am only five foot tall.

Thanks for the challenge.

Thanks 3LG for the cache Smile
 
13-Mar-17
A beautiful day for a stroll on this public holiday. We looked for a place to do some caching and decided on this trail not far from home. We weren't disappointed, as each hide is a little different from the one before, and presenting a challenge to find. A great little series 3LG, we will be back to tackle more some other time. Find three of twelve today. TNLNSL TFTC

Third cache in this series and my second DNF, i will need to lift my game.

**this is a late log** I have recently made a major upgrade to my GSAK license and found this lovely feature that automatically tells me what caches I have marked found in GSAK but never logged on geocaching.com!! Yay, Clyde, you can have my money anytime! The caches I am logging in this batch were ones I did in 2016. I cache with an assortment of cachers and never alone. So far in 2017 I have cached with Moneydork, Ride the GeoWalrus, Locus Cacher, Liz & Bruce and Team Zouk. I focused on logging 2016 SAGA eligible caches and did not log the others I have found and signed this year. In an interest to get completely caught up, I am logging my past finds in bulk. I still have work to do after this, as I need to locate my notes from all of my earthcaches, but once those are in, I should be very close to current. I appreciate all the effort you go through to create and place your hides and do not for one second take it for granted, I just need to get caught up so I can return to my once pleasant logs. Cheers!
 
04-Mar-17
Out on a Saturday with SEMIK and Moneydork, as the latter slowly made his way homeward. We picked the caches we went after based on those that the dork had not already done, so it was a bit of a mixed bag with the numbering. In the end I managed seven finds for the day before SEMIK and I had to head back to the city for a Fringe engagement later in the night. Hopefully we will be able to get back up here with bikes (rather than go on foot) and finish the series soon. TFTC 3LG!
