Thanks JJ52 for the cache. Just doing a few caches as nearby for a couple of days with a muggle and a non geopup.

Catching up with late logsAfter finishing of the Crab Geoart tha we didn't get through yesterday we headed up to this Seahorse Geoart that looks fantastic on the map and as after that we headed to Moonta to do the Adventure Lab and as this was close to one of the points so of course we had to have a look.With this many eyes it didn'ttake long to locate the cache and we added our acronym to the log book.To save room in the log book we signed as RAT4M (Rabbitto Alansee Team Crackers Muzza mcLookers and micaparamedic maccamob)Many thanks JJ52 for the cache.

Found today in a group consisting of Rabbitto, Alansee, Team Crackers, Maccamob, Micaparamedic, McLookers and myself. All signed as RAT4M.My thanks for the cache, JJ52.

We found this cache today on our Western Yorke tour in company of the RAT4M group, which stands for Rabbitto, Alansee, Team Crackers, Muzza, McLookers, Micaparamedic and Maccamob. A big day traversing the dry and dusty roadsides of Yorke Peninsula. Thanks from D & HA B-A

I am trying to hit a major milestone in April and this weekend was my chance to get closer to my goal. Sir_spectre generously helped me find 150 caches and all caches were replaced better than found.
Thanks to JJ52 from mogni

quick find. With 2 dnf's i was wondering if the cache was there, it is. The first place i looked and the logical place. Then went and did the lab stage here.
Found with Mogni. Mogni wants to get to 20, 000 by the Rutherglen Mega in Victoria and make that event her 20, 000 th. So we went out to complete the " THE Sad Fisher series " and stay in Moonta for the night. We got 150 finds for the weekend even though we started out at lunch time Saturday. Any damaged caches found where replaced with a new container and any logs found full or almost full were replaced or a extra scroll added. The weather couldn't make up it's mind, over 30 on Saturday and it rained almost all of the way home.

An impressive building, well worth the visit. Looking at the picture of the pipe organ I now regret not taking a minute to go inside.

Thanks for bringing me here JJ52.

Found while doing some maintenance on my nearby cache.

Looked everywhere and did a few rounds if the building but couldn't find it.Beautiful building though.

WIW and WOW again love this church as well as the town. We're are the stairs going???

What an impressive building and I can only imagine all it has seen. Cache is in good condition and was found quickly after walking a loop.

We had to wait for the rain shower to pass. But good to get out on a winter’s day. Good hiding spot. TFTC

Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.

A beautiful sunny day to day, what a treat. We have enjoyed our time travelling the YP. Fantastic towns, ruins, beaches and cliffs. Thanks to all the COs for guiding us around your state.

Fairly hard to find, very nice hiding spot.

The usual Wednesday Wander for members of Befuddled Puzzle Solving Group had us heading back once again to the upper Yorke Peninsular in search of solved puzzles and anything else we came across. Today it was myself, Blackadders and S.A. Sewer Rats. By the end of the day we had traveled over many km's , completed 10 lab caches, added to my ever expanding DNF list, made a FTF and many new solved puzzles caches located. As the sun set over the Moonta Mines it was time to head home, stopping for a few more caches of course.

Missed it first time, found it second sweep .

***Thanks JJ52 for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. ***
Logs prepared and published through GSAK.

Interesting area. Cheers and tftc

After a busy week at work I got myself organized for a leisurely day on the YP incentivized by an event in Wallaroo.
I made myself a list of caches to find and ended up with 35 finds for the day. There were a few dnf as well probably there and probably me just being cache blind.
The event was great a super spot and a huge crowd of cachers converged for a great catch up.
Weather was amazing in the morning but after the event turned quite wintery.
Some interesting wildlife a few mice that were too close for comfort (cms from my hands although think they were more terrified of me than me of them) and a sleepy lizard can’t imagine why he was out today.
My thanks to all the hiders for giving me a splendid day out!
This took me way way longer than it should have done to find TFTC JJ52

Today we attempted to complete the caches around Moonta we hadn’t already found.

Nice and muggle free here today so an easy find.
Many thanks for the hide JJ52

A fantastic building, we see there is a 'for sale' sign at the front of the church, hopefully this will not compromise the cache. The cache did take a little bit of looking, both hubby and myself had checked GZ and the container was found when hubby did a second run over the area. We have no idea how we missed it the first time. SL TFTC

With Molly the Squib and Kayche22. Go Team Kayche!! Tyftc

Step up! TFTC! With Molly Squid and Wackothedidlio!

Took a bit of time but got it! Tnlnsl

Persistence paid off! Tftc! Hope they don’t sell the church!

Nice quick find with no muggle spotted! TFTC

TFTC quick look and we soon had cache in hand
