I am archiving this one as it seems to have been found by children

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

DNF - assuming it has disappeared looking at previous comments

Trekked out to this beautiful spot but not a thing to be found!!

DNF had a good look and removed excessive leaves from previous finders pictures, but nothing

Can the CO please check on this one, thanks

Could not find

Nothing at chest height, didn't try climbing

Could not find

Not in the big stump

TFTC good hide

Nice quick grab though the walk across the marshes was slippery. TFTC.

A day trip to the Riverland was planned with earthlight, The X-Trailers and LíB to attend a couple of events, complete some Adventure Labs and find a few caches. [^]
It was a perfect day for caching and we had a great (tiring) time doing a few walks and generally enjoying the company while socialising and finding caches.

We left the lunch event and came here to go for a nice walk to pick up the caches along this track. The flies were a bit annoying, but that didn't stop us. The others had previously found this one but they happily came with me so I could turn this one into a smiley.

Thanks for the cache Trigger_Fish.

Thanks for the hide and smiley. Found after a lovely lunch event waterside nearby. Cheers!

Can’t see anything

Found it after another look

T.f.t.c

Nice for geo

Having a few days in the riverland based at Berri.

It's a short walk from the caravan park to pick this one up.

TFTC

Out for a days adventure with Mattycat, with the weather being a bit ordinary down south we chose to visit the North east before long we found ourselves in the riverland, a detour for lunch and some caches to finish off, this one was a quick find for us today

Thanks good walk

Found while walking the dog

Decided to have a look along my walk. Easy find perfect for the little ones!

We set off from the Martins Bend camping area to do this series of caches. We didn't realise that the walk was a circuit, so did this one on the way back.
Great area and lovely walk.
Thanks Moneydork.

found it

Dry as no pelicans in sight. Tftc

Been to Dayboro from Cairns to attend the Mega event now on the way to South Australia. 24 April 2021 3:13 pm Tyfc Moneydork 2039

Nice easy find

Found on a nice walk through the wetlands.

With 4MOULE crossing the border having a few days off we teamed up to grab some of the new caches near us.

A good day out grabbing these caches
Thanks Trigger_Fish for placeing them

Went for a walk after tea with The X-Trailers to locate this cache. A lovely night. TFTC

An easy walk from the boat ramp area with Bindi the geo pooch!!! Quickly located the smaller than expected prize!!!

Great find, dog enjoyed it

Moving from Adelaide to Brisbane, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I decided to drive the long distance to make the opportunity a holiday, taking 12 days and passing through Victoria, New South Wales, and then finally arriving in Queensland. We spent the first few days in SA's Riverland, visiting Morgan, Berri and Renmark; and then drove through Mildura in Victoria. In NSW, we stopped at Hay, Parkes, Merriwa, Tamworth, Port Macquarie, and Coffs Harbour, and then entered Qld to stop for a night in Robina in the Gold Coast.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I departed Morgan after a hot breakfast, and we proceeded south finding a few targeted *Tour de France* series geocaches, before then crossing the Murray River at Blanchetown. We then proceeded up the eastern Murray River bank passing through Murbko, before crossing once again and driving along the northern bank. We then stopped for a late lunch at Waikerie after making another river crossing (by ferry this time), and then made our way east along the Sturt Highway to Barmera. It was a chance to see a few sights in Barmera and complete the *A Bonney Stroll* Adventure Lab. Finally, we made a dash through Monash topping to see the adventure playground, and then arrived in Berri for the night.

Our final adventure today was a drive and jog in Martins Bend Reserve in Berri. We ended up completing this journey at dusk, and thus returned on foot under torchlight.
I found this to be a great walking track that took you around this reserve, and there were a few ducks in the nearby pond. We stopped to make a reasonably quick find of this cache, and the cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Moneydork for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Found on our big drive up to Brisbane with Davidwazza! TFTC!

Found today on a Proclamation Day morning. A long time since we had a walk along here.

Lots of fun finding this one

Found on a trip to the Riverland with FeatherWaite.

It was nice to be able to finally get out and about again for a few days of travelling, camping and caching. We were lucky with the weather, with mostly sunny days, relatively warm temperatures and no rain to speak of.

We targeted specific caches and areas and found a good selection of traditionals, multis, puzzles, letterboxes, a wherigo and an earthcache. Most of the containers and contents were in reasonable condition, although we did have to replace a few.

Surprisingly we didnt come across any many other people on our travels. Perhaps it was just a product of where we went, or maybe people are holding off for the June long weekend.

I enjoyed the early morning walk to the caches around here this morning.

Thanks Trigger_Fish for the cache.

Found on a trip to the Riverland with e.gregory1 that saw us travel to Loxton via the Wandering Heroes series, then to Katarapko, Berri, Cooltong Conservation Park, Renmark, Chowilla and Danggali Regional Reserves, then visiting Barmera and Pooginook Conservation Park and returning via Waikerie and Blanchetown. It was nice to spend a few days camping out in the bush and visiting many scenic locations, staying at great campsites and finding an assortment of targeted caches as well as the satisfaction of clearing up some remote spots on the geocaching map. Thanks for the cache Trigger_Fish!

Found. Thank you moneydork

can’t believe we found it said son!!

Decided to walk the Allan Thurmer loop, even though the temperature was getting warm . Took the shady way down and picked up the cache as we headed up the other side [8].
Not in the first place we looked [:o)]. TNLNSL.
Thanks for another one Moneydork.

Headed out for a walk this morning and thought we’d pick up this cache. Once we got here I realised we got this one before! Checking the log and we signed on 8/10/19 and I obviously forgot to log it online Thanks for the cache and enjoyable walk - twice!

10:41
Our first full day in the riverland for 2020, we enjoyed meandering around the mighty Murray, where we found a variety of hides in some interesting locations. No pelicans here today!

Our thanks to 'Trigger_Fish' for placing this cache for us to find.

Boat mayhem

Sitting at my computer during these Covid lockdowns, I am trying to catch up on a few logs that I haven't sent in yet.

Over the years, geocaching has taken me on many adventures, including interesting destinations all over my home continent of Australia and many overseas as well. It has also introduced me to a diverse group of like-minded caching tragics, many of whom I now call close friends.

Today, I was lucky enough to be out and about searching for caches, something I do on almost a daily basis. This was one cache that was targeted and found.

Sorry for the late log, something I am notorious for. Thank you for adding to the adventure that is geocaching.

Thanks Moneydork for the cache.

Camping in Berri for the Australia Day longweekend, we headed out today to Explore Lovedays 4X4 Park and do a couple of caches with Jalinrenos. After Marty's bend we continued along the track and double backed along the other track to make a quick find. Then headed back to camp for a well earned afternoon Beer! TFTC

Found

First for the day Loving the Wetland Trail on our bikes With Juju54 TFTC

A good way to start the day.... a nice little hide here with HRH54 TFTC

Nice pink pen but it ran out of ink.

Easy find on a lovely morning walk TFTC

Mr Parrot is on the road for work this week and happily finding caches when he knocks off.
A lovely walk I really enjoyed this one.
I had my fill of Pelicans at Lock 2 so was happy to see ducks.

Found on a lovely day caching around the riverland. Got our bikes off to tackle some of the martys series around the river bend. Thanks for bringing us here, cache is in good condition.TFTC!

Travelling around Australia, staying in Lyrup today we popped out to find a few caches of course.

Pleasant walk this morning. No Pelicans but plenty of Ducks.

TFTC

TFTC. No Pelicans today

Nice spot out of the wind

Good find. What a beautiful location!!

Staying in the Riverland overnight gave me the opportunity to grab a few caches after dinner by torchlight...
A pleasant stroll to GZ and a relatively easy find...
TFTC Moneydork

Planned a day trip to Barmera to attend an event and were fortunate enough to be offered an overnight stay. More time for caching and socialising and a spot of caching after dinner. No pelicans spotted this evening, might have been a tad dark. Martins Bend is a fab spot to camp too

TFTC Moneydork

Got the bikes out to get this one, nice little spot.

After caching in Mildura we headed for south Australia this was easily found along the way.

A trip away with the grandfather (freddo) to the Riverland and Mildura, for the weekend to attend the 3X3 events for the events held in New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia.

Thanks for the cache.

A nice ride on our way home. We carried those bike for a thousand km. Love the cache location.

Just in the riverland overnight.
Seemed like an opportunity to see the stars and do some torchlight caching!
Yours was one of the lucky ones I visited
Lovely place for a late night walk. Couldn't see any pelicans at all... even with the big torch!
Left an angry bird piggy trackable, seemed to fit the theme.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache Moneydork

Easy find on leisurely walk
Tftc

Well hidden, lots of fun. Thanks!

Cheers for the find such a beautiful spot

Nice bike ride and a fun geocache! Took me a bit to find bc I was scared of snakes. Overall it was a good cache hidden well

Went for a nice walk after the nearby event, with geokids leading the way to GZ where they found the cache...
TNLNSL
Thanks

Awesome cache. Nice walk
TFTC

A gorgeous day caching in Berri. Amazing views and a great walk. TFTF MoneyDork.

Such a great walking track, and always so beautiful along the river. We can only imagine gz when it was in it's full glory would have been spectacular! Cache is in great condition and we retrieved the TB that was in it. Thanks Moneydork we have really enjoyed the places you have taken us in the region.

Thanks for your efforts in placing caches

No pelicans seen today. That’s a good thing. Pelicans are scary. They have big serrated beaks and bite.

Thanks for the cache Moneydork.
