Nice camo for an easy find.Beautiful area. TFTC

Found during a caching day around Lyndoch and Nuriootpa in the Barossa Valley on my way to an overnight stay in the mallee. Gradually chipping away at this series, finding a few caches each time I pass through the area. Thanks for the cache LB!

GC6MW3Z Barossa Trail #24A group of us are down from Darwin and Brisbane for the leap year mega event. This is my last full day in Adelaide so we decided to tackle all those grapes we had solved and pick up various other caches in the area. To save space in the logs we have signed as BOLD7. Was meant to be BDLD7 but something got lost in translation. However 2 more have joined our team. So BOLD9 today it is.I have had a great time caching down here and will need to return with the family to explore the area (& caches) some more.TFTC LB

Found with the Nelson crew on our way to the Barossa for a few nights caching. Everything has been going well on this trip

Found with SPINBNZ Team Nice easy find this is a gorgeous Barossa Valley thanks LB

Oh My, not sure what day number this is cache wise nor what caches I did yesterday, we have been caching for a while and the days and the caches seem to run into each other now. We started early today and had the Grapes geoart in mind, along with some special caches as we passed. It will be nice to hopefully have another art completed without any holes. To save space on log sheets we signed as BOLD 9. I like this area and the caches were different in parts. Some nice puzzles to solve and some good placements. We thought we were going to be short on one cache but we ended up finding the bison on the ground. A quick tie up and all good to go. Thanks for the caches and the hides, sorry for the generic logs.

With the Adelaide mega event now a mild hangover past, it was time to collect interesting geo-art and cache types while the BOLD09 are based in Adelaide. Today's focus was the Barossa and to pick the grape geo-art.This is my second trip to the Barossa in the last 9 months. On my first visit I picked up a few of the Barossa Trail series and talked up the series enough that the BOLD09 got sick of my moaning and relented that we'd stop for 10ish caches as the attributes are needed for a challenge back in Brissy. Cherry picking the ones close to road intersections. Getting into a different mind set mojo so the finds have been relatively quick after a few hiccups at the start of the run.Well done LB for your efforts and making caching the main reason we should visit the Barossa!! Well not quite, the BOLD09 did visit a winery later in the day just before knock off time. Apologies on writing generic logs in most cases with this series.

Found as part of the SPBINZ team (Sidewaze, Paddle Chick, Bullertrout, IsisNZ, and Nanzie). We're heading for the Barosssa geoart today and stopped for this one on the way. TFTC LiB and kia ora from Aotearoa/New Zealand # 21815**Otepoti/Dunedin is the place to be 26-27 October, 2024 for GCA7ZHD - Geo Toroa Mega! Please come and join in the fun, find heaps of caches and experience some wonderful Southern hospitality.**

Caching as team SPBINZ: Sidewaze, Paddlechick, Bullertrout, IsisNZ and Nanzie.This trip has been a "game of three thirds" for us. First we visited the Yorke Peninsula, staying at Wallaroo and then at Port Vincent. Then it was a couple of nights in the city, attending the Mega and looking to get the maximum number of cache types we could, a couple of hidden months for members of the team and lots of caches that crossed our paths. Now we're off to tour the Barossa Valley, visit a few trails, find lots of caches and generally have a good look around. One of our missions will be to put that bunch of grapes back together. No-one is really into wine-tasting, well put it this way, we'd all rather be geocaching, so geocaching it is ??, though I'm very pleased to say geocaching took us to several beautiful wineries.I do get a bit side-tracked when I'm caching and take time to enjoy the local flora and fauna. The plants are so obviously adapted to life in a dry climate, the birds are colourful and screechy, and the ants - - well, I've never seen such large ants or had such a vicious bite from an insect. There are lots of scenic views too, some of which attract action from my camera but of course many that just form part of the overall experience.Oh, but of course I also take my turn driving and sometimes I'm first out of the car and into the hunt, though I'm probably number 5 on the success stakes when it comes to finding the slightly elusive hides ??.Thanks for all your wonderful hides and for your contribution to a most wonderful caching experience and tour of the hinterland .

Sidewaze, Paddle Chick, Bullertrout, IsisNZ and Nanzie are caching our way around the Barossa signing our logs as SPBINZ or some variation on that. TFTC LB#16262

How very exciting the big trip has finally arrived! Down from Brisbane with a host of other geo friends with plans aplenty, enough to almost see us needing to extend or make a return visit. Our geonick for the trip is BOLD9 which is guaranteed to save the log paper for the 9 individual members of the team. As we make our way around sadly there wont be time for the usual individual logs and therefore just the old generic log will have to do. With little extra notes here and there if needed. Thank you for your cache which has added to my wonderful caching holiday.

BOLD9 headed out to the Barossa to pick some grapes plus a few others! Thanks for all the fab caches

I was in Adelaide for the Mega and came across this series. I was out caching with a group of friends (BOLD9), and this was one that we found. I liked this series, and it would've been excellent to do on a bike or scooter, but unfortunately, we only had a car, so we couldn't get the entire series.Thanks for the cache; I have so many logs to do that I have to complete bulk logs; all caches were in good condition unless noted.

Visited as part of the "BOLD9" group. TFTC!

Out and about collecting more smilies.Today we will be doing the grapes geoart and other caches in the Barossa Valley. Signed with Leap mega team nickname BOLD9. Thanks for hiding and maintaining the cache.

Did a day trip Sandy Creek to make a start on the Barossa Trail between Gawler and Lyndoch, also getting others along the way. All caches were in good condition unless mention otherwise. Park the vehicle at Sandy Creek and took the scooter for a ride.Thanks to LiB for their very creative caches some took a bit of finding. TFTC

Today's goal was to have a nice ride and enjoy coffee and cake somewhere. Finding a few caches along the way would be a bonus.

No horsing around with this one , quick easy find

Yes it was a quick find

After the early morning event I headed out to clear up some more of this series.

It was a brisk walk at first but eventually it warmed up to just be cold.

A quick find.

Found by Myles, Sallie, Josh and Kelly TFTC!

Done cheers

slayyyy

Out and about to add a few more to our tally. TFTC

Out for a morning of caching. TFTC

Southern Autumn adventure Day 41. Mid North section of SA trip Day 12. Barossa Valley Day 4. I left Nuriootpa today for Gawler. It was not far, so I got up early and did a bit of local caching before checkout time. Once I had the van hooked on, I went into town for a few caches and a chat to SnappyTomCats at their very impressive shop. After morning tea, I headed off to Gawler and setup even though I was a bit early. The afternoon was spent on the Barossa trail caches,and wow, I thought some of the NTA trail caches were impressive. Some of these were just plain difficult, to the extent I missed a good handful of them. Oh well, it was a fun day and I enjoyed the challenge.

I jumped on my scooter and worked my way along this track for 20 finds. It was hard work, some are just devious.

Thanks for the cache LíB

Day seventeen of our short South Australian trip with BettyBoo3747 and the geo-doggies.
With Sunday's crappy weather all finished, we set of on the deadly treadlies to complete some more of the Barossa Trail. We drove to Lyndoch, and then rode to the start of the trail then back to the Bakery at Lyndoch for lunch.
After lunch we did a few more back towards Rowland Flat, and then a few odd ones.
A nice collection of caches, and a great ride.

Another low cache!
Thanks, Robmc.

#19341. Day 17 of our Vic/SA trip with Robmc the geodogs and our bicycles. After a miserable day weather-wise yesterday it was back to the bicycles today with the hope of making a big dent in the Barossa Trail caches. We parked at Lyndoch and rode towards Gawler - starting at #40 and gathering all that were available until we finished at #1. 2 1/2 hours to do that and another 1/2 hour to ride back for our lunch stop. After lunch we did a few more before returning to base at Tanunda. A great day's ride and so many interesting cache hides.

Another good hide here. We have been lucky to find them all so far.

Thanks LíB

Another beautiful winters day in the Barossa out caching with iluvtrekking. This is the type of hides we prefer - rural roads and lanes. Thanks LiB

Found it on a windy bike ride with the geokids. A nest of ants had made its home in it

Nice camo

Out on the Barossa Trail today during a break in the weather picking up a few more caches. Today we found #16 - 40 and a few other caches.
25 finds for today and 1 DNF.
A bunch of great hides and vast majority in good condition.
TFTC Lib!

Nice

Full of ants

Fun! Tftc

I had planned to finish the Hale circuit this afternoon, but I’ve just been there and it’s on fire! (prescribed burn). This cluster of seven unfound Barossa Trail caches will do nicely instead. Thanks LíB, nice work on these caches!

On the ground. Great job.

Very good spot on the ground

Found while making the most of the last day of daylight savings. Another little section done TFTC

Today I decided to go for a walk and do some of the Jack bobridge trail on foot, off I set from #10 through to #36, total of 11km return. Some of the caches were tough to find others a lot easier, it appeared once I got the hang of the hides they became easier to located.
All the caches found are in good condition.
Thanks for the cache.

My phone lead me astray until i thought more cache hidingly. Tftc.

Day 440 ( Wednesday 11th) of our trip. Caching along the way, in Greenock today. Going to finish off the Barossa trail run we started last time we were here. TFTC

Tftc with arcoordaby and the kids. Nice hide

Kids liked finding this one!

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.

Thanks Lib for JB#24. Great camo

In perfect strollin' weather this morning,
I was strollin' the trail
These caches are already proving entertaining

But why is it so quiet out here ?? [:o]
Not seen another soul yet !!
Ah well !! All the easier to search for the caches

Kool hide TFTC

Another excellent cache here TFTC

Out for a Sunday afternoon with Malco!, Csaba! and SupaTurtle. Main aim was to do this series and a few inbetween. Clever hides. Tra La Laaa

Having a fun day out with Csaba!, SupaOrange and Malco!. This was a fun series with all different hides. Turtle Out.

Out caching with Csaba! and the Supas.

All of these are tricky hides and much fun to find.

Thanks, 3LG

Started this cache series a few years ago. Today I was back in force with Malco!, SupaOrange and SupaTurtle. Great to see a series where all the caches are unique. Thanks

Literally didn't need to get off our bikes! TFTC

Found. Needs a new log book

Such a nice day for finally doing this trail. Twenty two many to go. Cheers cobber.

Have decided to break this trail down into sections of 10 for the geokids, this is our 3 lot. loving the camo and thought put into this trail. TFTC

Last day of the promo and I needed 33 finds to grab the final souvenier. What else to do but hit up a power trail. I managed to walk the round trip of 18 kilometers in around four and a half hours, A little further than I'd planned, but a few DNF's here and there stretched the journey a bit further than I'd hoped.

This was find number 15 of 33 for the day for me. TFTC LíB!

The trail is throwing lots of fun at us tonight. TFTC

Cache nice and dry in the wet.

Thanks 3LG and clear skies from TeamAstro. ️ Cache the planet!

Great

Thanks 3LG, Awesome find, log signed & replaced.

A relatively quick find. Tftc.

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 was a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks 3LG for this cache and a very high quality series.

Another quick find.

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.

We were lucky to spot this quickly given the very clever camo.

Found it

Found during a very hot day between 30 to 37 degree.
Shorter walk in the morning and by car after lunch
Nice trail with plenty of tricky hides..

We wrote IJ stand for the first letter i our alias ( Jsson, Ingabo)
Greetings from Sweden
TFTC!

Together with jsson on a daytrip north of Adelaide up to Gawler. We logged as IJ.
It was a very hot day with temperatures up to 37 degrees C. We did only take one 2,5km walk and gave priority to car caching instead. We soon found a very nice trail which we followed until we had to break.
Thanks for placing a cache here for me to enjoy and find.

This one was a quick find. I spotted the camo from across the road.

Thanks for the cache 3LG.
