Bit of the path have to bush walk

In town with CaptainVimes for a work event (hers, not mine) and to find a few caches. Found with my eldest who is 21 and almost a year younger than this cache. Thanks for the cache Team Piggy

Treeee find

A nice day for a drive in the Adelaide Hills for a few caches. I parked the car in the Mount George Conservation Park car park and set off on foot. This was my first visit to this park and it was very enjoyable. Nice views in places and lots of caches to help me explore the area. All caches found were in good condition unless stated otherwise. Most were quick finds, but a couple of stubborn ones requiring extra time to find. A great afternoon in the Autumn sunshine. Thank you Team Piggy, for placing George for the geocaching community.# # #15022 # #

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location. (HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do. [:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort. Devilish Brilliant and Clever I like it Another one off the list TTBLNSL TFTC/TFTH/TFBUH - Team Piggy [^]

A sneaky grumpy bump looked on as I did the search and find for the cache. Had water in cache but log dry.Tftc

Cache nearly as old as I am! Still in good nick TFTC Team Piggy

Wasn't sure what I was 'oink oink' looking for, but once I was closer to GZ it was a little clearer. Found signed and returned. TFTC team piggy!

I was up this way this morning and saw there were quite a few caches around so I parked and went on a lovely adventure through Mt George. I found a total of 8 caches on my very enjoyable loop. I didn't always take the easiest way and said hello to many blackberry bushes. This was my first find today, took a little searching to find the right spot.Thank you for hiding this cache for my adventure.

Nice

This has been on my to do list for ages, and today was the day! A really cold day meant brisk walking and hopefully all quick finds, and that's what we got. Lovely to find such an old cache, TFTC Team Piggy

A quick find,stamp and refit
TFTC

Was considering a sleep-in this morning, then several new cache notifications pinged. So we grabbed our gear and raced out the door for a Sunday morning adventure. We managed to snag a park on Old Carey Gully Road and all walked in there. After collecting some smileys along the Foreman Fire Track, we headed out on the Heysen Trail for a few more. Such a nice morning to explore some of the Mount George area.
TFTC!!

Found it

A nice oldie. Quick find.

Some caches signed as “Team Azzo”

It was quite a trek. Make sure you bring your hiking shoes and not thongs like me

Great find!

In da thing

Ttrogg Picked up the Rat from the Rat's Den.
Then we headed out on an OZGrumpy day in Mount George.

We headed down the track to this one.
This track was going to test out the leg and hip.
It was a slow walk around the loop today.
After doing the loop it was time to do this one.
A quickish find.TFTC

Well I thought I would collect at least two caches from Mt George today. Oh how easy could this one be...TFTC Team Piggy. Least I've had a cardio work out this morning .

This was my target cache for the afternoon. With such a good day weather-wise, it was perfect for an evening walk along these trails. I knew the cache was compromised, so brought three replacements with me. I found the cache, which was entirely full of water. I removed the two sodden bags of mess, dried out the container and added one that would fit inside. I put mine inside yours, turned yours upside down so it wouldn't collect water, and then hid it under quite a lot of camo. It is clearly obvious to a cacher which stump is the one with a cache in it.

Thanks for the opportunity of finding a cache from 2002, with the replacement this should last a bit longer for sure. Thanks Team Piggy.

Find #8123 at 7.08pm.

All wet and needs to be replaced

Tftc. Nice walk

Easy find, bit of a scramble tho

Good find

Met 3 walkers at last Junction father and 2 kids. They were heading to another destination. There are tall slender rough bark eucalypts all along the route to the cache. I don't recognise the variety but they form a lovely setting. I enjoy this type of cache.
Thanks Team Piggy for a lovely off the track bush cache.

Found it. Great fun. Logbook too wet to use.

My mum and dad found this so long ago they couldn’t remember where it was, but we eventually found it!

Found it couldn't leave a msg, paper too wet and soggy

Took a little effort in the dust storm as the GPS wasn't that accurate but we found it while the scouts were doing their thing - with Fich06

Epic adventure coming down from the fire track. Would never have come here except for geocache - introduced to a hidden gem of a conversation park. Thank you from Charlie, Dyan and Dad

My first time at Mt George. TFTC

Quick easy find on a cool morning (so less snake drama). TFTC

Heugz

Watch out for blackberries! Deposited a dinosaur

Back years later with son.

Nice find had to go for a small walk to find it, couldn’t write in log book as it was super damp.

Tftc couldn’t sign cause log book wet

Thanks! Logbook is very wet.

Found it, very slippery terrain. Log book soaked despite container.

Found it again! We first found this one years ago. Nice to be back!

This evening after work, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed out to around Bridgewater and Stirling for a few walks and geocaching. We started with a hike along the Heysen Trail in Mount George Conservation Park, passing a few other walks and runners also enjoying the nippy but sunny afternoon. We then drove past Woodhouse Activity Centre, reminiscing of my younger days coming here during outings and school camps. It was then a stop in to Stirling for a cache published earlier in the day, but a nice walk around its town centre picking up sweets and goodies in a few shops.

A pleasant walk along the Heysen Trail, and enjoyable to cross the bridge to see the small picturesque river running. Once near GZ, we left the track, and checked a few locations, before GZ counted down to zero, and the cache was made. The hint didn't make a lot of sense (other than association with the CO's name), so I can only assume that this cache container had changed over the years, of which the hint is no longer relevant. It certainly isn't a regular sized cache anymore, but just small sized. The cache container was fine, but the logbook is wet and a little tattery, so it could use a replacement log and plastic bag added. These circular containers never seem to be a good idea with keeping water/moisture out. Thanks Team Piggy for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance. It was nice to have found this oldie 09/2002 hidden cache.

P.s. I do wonder what [@gridge98](http://coord.info/PRGKDMY) means in his log when he refers to HZ? Hopefully zero perhaps?

Yay! #2!!!

Quick find on a quick evening walk around the area with Davidwazza! TFTC!

Very wet and log needs maintenance...not quite sure what the clue means!

Tftc

Bad hiding spot and compass all Over the place

Couldn't find it as it's as our gps' couldn't get a lock on our location. Need good hiking shoes as it can be a bit slippery

Found it after a nice walk in the park. Logbook definitely needs maintenance.

Thank you

Wet logbook

I like caches like this, where you have to walk some distance along a track, and then leave the trail. Alas the the log book is still wet, but I did manage to leave a mark. TFTC.

Pretty easy, still very fun but the logbook is ruined, beautiful search

No stumping me

I had this cache on the list of caches to find today, I set off in search of this although I anticipated a bit of a shorter walk, anyways it was a nice walk through the woods. I soon arrived at HZ to find this oldie out in the open full of water, I did my best to fix it up but unfortunately a new container and log book is probably needed.

Woohoo! Thanks for the adventure. If you’re looking - feel safe to move away off the beaten track

TFTC

Heyyyy you guys.....TFTC!!

This medium was on the smallish side but a nice walk anyway. We've hidden the cache a little better than we found it. Beware of the thorns. Tftc.

Our first one in Australia. TFTC

Thanks for this geo cache. Beautiful area and a lovely walk. Blackberry bush ate my pants.

Thanks, great location

Nice one beautiful walk up the hill off the tack

Found with CWKemp. Contents of original log bag is soup, new one is fine. Thanks for the cache.

All good, old log is dead, new one fine.

Thanks creator.

Great spot! Thanks!!

Got it, log very wet.

Forgot to log along time ago! Whoops!

Log book very wet.

Found it after completing the Wheels of Industry multi which finishes quite close by. Accurate coordinates made this quite an easy find. Logbook is very wet. TFTC!
