The Mountain Biker's Cache Happy Valley, South Australia, Australia
By marvin277 on 09-Mar-19. Waypoint GC84FX9

Out on a ride here today so stopped and checked on my cache. All is good here.

Great winter morning for a walk through 80 acres. Very peaceful and great views. Although I didn't have a mountain bike to ride through this area, I was able to walk to the location. After my gps was trying to throw me off, I managed to find the area and locate the cache. Great hide. Tftc.

High 5 to the mountain bikers

Awesome hide

??????

A quick find after a bit of a walk. TFTC

Time for a Tuesday Trek for three Confused Puzzlers.Today's plan was for ttrogg to pick up The Rat from the Rat's den .Then travel south to meet up with the Starfish.We parked the geo mobile, and went for a walk in the scrub.A quick find and stamp for the Rat. Tftc

Jumped on the mountain bike and stopped here to freshen up the container and top up the swaps with plenty of handy mountain bike items and also a few other items for the kids. Enjoy

Noice little ride to find it cheers

A very pleasant hike to this cache on a lovely Spring dayLog stamped and all returned as foundGet a favourite point from me..definitely a bikers container TFTC

Checked on my cache today while out riding and while it's dry and in good condition, I've noted it's looking a little tired and running out of mountain bike supplies so I'll be back soon to get it back to it's original condition.

Great find exploring new areas

Thanks for the cache, bonus with lots of kangaroos nearby too

Nice easy find. Love the container! TFTC

Found this one at good coordinates and very close to the trail, nothing of use to us as we were on foot today but I'm sure there was something in there that would be useful to a mountain bikers.Nice appropriate container, have a favourite point.

What started as a morning hike turned into a good ol' bush whack adventure that probably didn't need to be... still, had a great time picking up smilies and enjoying the views.

This cache is making me thirsty!
TFTC! x

Big fan of the unique container, good hide in a lovely area.

Cool idea for a container, we saw a couple of bikers crusing around the lanes here, I wonder how may collide with the kangaroos in the park...?

Found during a tour of the southern suburbs area on a great day for a walk. Thanks for the cache marvin277!

Beautiful park. Thanks

Thanks for the cache marvin277. I came in from the north and managed to find this one after reading the hint. Cache in good condition, book dry and easily signed. Find #7020 at 3.38pm. The bushland is getting thicker here.

I rode my bike to this cache with my dad today

Out with sir_spectre helping him fill up his calendar, luckily I already have 11 on every calendar day
Thanks for the adventure

found with mogni. I have walked this park for years and years when i had Zoe the 4 paw all terrain kelpie, usually in the dark with out a torch. It was easier that way to spot the foxes, rabbits, etc for her to chase. Good to have a reason to come back to this park, i cleared it out years ago and have been waiting for enough caches to get published to come back.
No mountain bikes seen today but have seen many on other trips in here and even the odd motorbike. Did see a kangaroo. quick find.

Found with NiciDanielle and Zoe the Geodog. Awww this is a bit cute, it's like a little care package for downhill riders, complete with anti-bastard bird protection. TFTC

Clever cache. Quick find with cachehunter and Zoe the geo dog. Tftc

Took a rough way to this.....then saw the track! Nice location! Thanks for the hide!

I decided I needed to go for a walk this afternoon and even though it was threatening rain I headed off. Found a good spot to park and started my walk. Did not spot anyone else on the tracks and only one rabbit that hopped off in front of me. [^]

I had been looking at this cache for ages and never got around to getting it so today with another newish cache close by I found my way here for a quick find.

Thanks for the cache marvin277.

Headed south again today with the main aim being some walking in the 80 Acres Park just a bit south east of Happy Valley for ten traditionals. Managed to find eleven other traditionals on the way there and scored a bonus of a puzzle in the park that I had on the To Find list.
A quick find, by foot, of a well themed cache.
Thanks to marvin277 for putting out this cache for me to find.

Found it

We were out for a walk in hope of seeing water flowing down the nearby waterfall, but despite the rain there was still very little water ;(
Stopped by to find this cache on our way back. Great cache container. Simple and fits the theme. TFTC!

A nice walk around the park here today, managed to make a nice and easy find here and the cache is all good

With the whole day to kill and an early birds event in the city I decided I would head to the southern suburbs after being down the last night I wanted to clean up a few more of the caches in the area and mainly targeting the walking caches. All up 39 finds for the day.

TFTC

Thank u.. walked in from golf course entrance...tnlnsl

Nice find, TFTC

Nice themed cache took us on a walk through some nice hush land I hadn’t previously visited tftc

Bit of a hike to this one but was worth it to find the creative hide! Enjoyed the themed cache and goodies! TFTC

Nice

Found while en route to another cache in this awesome area. TFTC

Managed to walk around here between rain showers this morning .
Didn't manage to find the right track in to this one (but as usual, found the easy way out) .
TNLNSL.
Didn't see another soul here as we did our walk around .
Thanks Marvin277.

Heading out to pick up a few finds in the gloomy and overcast weather, making the most from a day off from uni. Despite the drizzling rain it was a pleasant walk picking up a few finds but as the drizzle turned to steady rain, I made my way back to the car. All caches were found in good condition.

TFTC

Managed to take the wrong track and had to bush bash the last 50m. Was quickly greeted by a good sized cache. Thanks marvin

Decided to head to 80acres to do a spot of caching before heading out for Sunday lunch with the geohusband. Should have brought them along for this walk as the hound would have loved it especially all the rabbits, will have to come back with them both to pick up the ones I dnfd today or didn't have enough time to complete.
Totally underestimated the terrain and the wilderness, the paths seemed to mosaic all over the place so did lots of scurrying back and forth to find paths to the caches. There was a lot of up hill too, and dogs and muggles on bikes.
But in all it was a lovely walk and I picked up 6 more caches for the tally. Then off for a well earned roast lunch (beef with Yorkshire pudding, delicious).
Really liked both of the containers here, after a bit of tooing and froing got to GZ and made a quick find, sign and replace. TFTC marvin277.

Afternoon walk with Pony1966 and the geo-pup. Quick find, great views. TFTC

Found with Wal & Ol on a cool winter afternoon. Lovely walk in, TFTC!

A cold brisk walk with the dog, collecting clues for a souvenir.

One of my goals for this year is to fill in and many of the 83 calendar days that I am missing having found a puzzle cache. To date I have crossed out 34 days but missed 12, so I was to eager to cross off another required day today. [^] Unfortunately none are very close to home anymore and so I found myself traveling 40 kms to 80 Acres Park to grab a puzzle find. May as well enjoy the sunshine and grab the others scattered around the park.

The walk had been a lot of down and now I was walking up. The car is a long way away. No crazy mountain bikes encountered today. Cache soon discovered in a likely spot. I wonder how many mountain bikers know that emergency help was located in the park. Then again they should all be carrying this stuff anyway!

**Thanks marvin277 for this cache. **

Perfect container for this cache, well done! Pleasant walk with geodog, fun find.
Thanks marvin277

The rain had gone and I had a lovely stroll to GZ. No silly mountain biking today.

Easter 2020 sees SA hosting the next Easter big event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Check it out. We would love to see you there.

Well themed cache

Found it nice and easy. Thanks for the nice walk.

Thanks marvin277 for the cache

This cache has been annoying me for a while being the only green dot in an otherwise clear map area. So, th day, while I was out and about, I decided to take a small walk to fix that problem. With tracks shooting off in all directions, some made by bikes, and others by large hopping rats, it wasn’t easy to work out which one to take, or whether a more direct route could be better. In the end, it was a bit of both which was similar to a number of my other visits to this area. At GZ, my GPS wasn’t sure which direction or how far the cache was as it struggled to get a consistent lock, so I put it away and thought like a cache owner. Soon after I had the small cache in hand.

Thanks for the cache marvin277.

A pleasant stroll down to GZ.

A quick find and then back to the car.

A nice walk with Team Waldron on a much deserved day off. TFTC.

Having traversed these tracks a number of times over the years, one learns to not try to push through those bastard bushes which are rife in this area! Needless to say I dodged and weaved like a mountain biker on the track.
A quick find and we were off up the track to the sane mode of transport awaiting us.
Surprised only a couple of other logs on this one, it isn't a driveby, but is only about 500m from nearest parking spot!
The podium is now filled...
TNLNSL
Thanks

Silver for me. I was made aware by allister w that there was a new cache published behind home, so we set off with the geopooch to give him a walk. Didn't take long to find given the hint and coords were spot on. Took the opportunity to walk back via a path we've not walked before. TNLNSL. TFTC.

*FTF* @4pm. After work today I thought I would come and find this cache since it didn’t have any logs. Very well themed cache container with appropriate swag. A nice gentle walk in a park I have walked a few times. Favourite point added. Thanks for the cache marvin277.
