Back in Hardys Scrub for a walk and some entertainment. This loop certainly blew out the cobwebs, up hill and down dale. Another area of prickly bushes where a bit of blood was shed which mixed in nicely with the glitter. Thanks Briana the explorer for this fun Tftc

Something special or unusual goes here:There must have been some growth since the cache was placed. Why else would it be completely surrounded by acacia bastardo bushes. [?] Scratch, scratch, scratch, quick find. Smile Nice cache. Scratch, scratch, scratch, three minutes picking of the prickles from the clothing! SurprisedThe Generic Bit:The usual trio of puzzle solvers were available for Tuesday Trekking today. Today's target was the Hardy 's Scrub section of the Onkaparinga Gorge National Park. I met up with Ttrogg and Mrs. S.A. Sewer Rats at Gate 19. Razz A lot of walking and up and down today in search of solved puzzles and anything else we came across. [^] The usual laughs and a picnic lunch with a great variety of caches today with some really good gadgets and Favourite Points awarded. Cool ***Thanks Briana the explorer for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big GrinLogs prepared and published through GSAK.

Oh the glitter.We stamped the logbook and replaced as found. Tftc

Had to laugh when Featherwaite complained about getting glittered. Then had to cry thinking of the environmental impact of the glitter. Glitter is made of plastic and aluminum! Animals and birds are going to eat the glitter that's escaped from the cache and once eaten it generally sits in their gut making their digestive system less effective. Then the stuff that isn't eaten is going to be in the environment for decades if not centuries (plastic never goes away - it just becomes micro plastic which has it's own issues).

Really? Logbook container packed full of glitter? I was VERY tempted to not sign it and move on to the next cache. Glitter kills!

Found by the Aussie branch of Dobie's Pride on a great Spring afternoon.

Headed south today with the main aim being some walking in the Hardy's Scrub area of the Onkaparinga River National Park for a dozen caches. Of course there were a few others that needed finding on the way there.
It would appear that glitter is not a good water absorbent as log is a little damp.
Thanks to Briana the explorer for putting out this cache for us to find.

Ive been wanting to do this walking trail for a while now so decided today was the day. My son was looking for a walk to do to increase his fitness since recovering from AC surgery. We walked around in circles to find this one. Mainly because the app was playing up and also because my son didnt want to walk through any prickly bushes. We found the fantastic large cache and opened it carefully - expecting glitter to come out everywhere. We werent disappointed haha! Thanks for making and maintaining this cache, it was a lot of fun.

When we saw the cache we thought “aw we missed the glitter, it must have all washed off but no, no no .
Oh glitter glitter glitter, the log book container contents will be present in our house for ages. Guessing the washing machine will have a nice glint about it’s tub too.
Doing the Hardy’s Scrub walk-in today and wanting to do another Brianna cache this was a must do today.
Did a bit of a bad bush bash from the track to this cache but that’s just us being bad at navigating really.
All that glitters is not gold, but this cache was gold to us, love the theme.
Looking forward to catching up soon. Thanks for a nice big container in the bush.
Thanks Brianna for the cache, found it, signed it and replaced the cache.

Ah, Briana, you got me good. I needed a large today, and you delivered that nicely. I wasn’t prepared for glitter though. Glitter is forever, so off home now to wash my jeans. Thanks for a fun cache!

Decided to tackle a few caches in ORNP today. Was supposed to be having a full day in the park but had a late night last night and needed to get stuff done at home. So ended up with a couple of hours walking amongst the poison Wattle.
Briana I LOVED THIS ONE!! All the glitter really made me smile. Thanks for the lovely big bucket and all the glitter!

Showers had been forecasted for the morning, but we awoke to find it surprisingly clear. [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I decided to head to Onkaparinga River National Park for a morning hike, followed by some nearby adventures. We hiked down to the river from Chapel Hill winery, and then as we were hit with intermittent drizzles, we did a small walk/loop in Hardy's Scrub. After that, we did a large detour to get to McClaren Flat, passing by Wickham Hill Road's 7% incline to find an oldie geocache there. The rain by then had settled in, so there was just some shopping to complete, before heading home.

Nicely themed, and I'm looking forward to future *Glitter trail* caches. It reminded me of a video I only recently watched about a few guys trying to break Youtube due to how it handles its compression: [These guys try to break YouTube with slo-mo glitter](https://www.fastcompany.com/90493334/these-guys-try-to-break-youtube-with-slo-mo-glitter-and-its-gorgeously-unwatchable). It is pretty funny, and they get some interesting results. Perhaps something to aspire to?

Anyway, the cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Briana the explorer for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

A fun day out with [@Davidwazza](http://coord.info/PR61VZX) exploring the nearby area! TFTC!
 
11-May-20
A beautiful sunny day so I ditched work and headed out with Debandy to pick up some caches the Onka. The recent rain has brought this place alive, we saw heaps of wildlife around and the Monarch Butterflies were out in droves.
Thanks for the cache!

Found It!
It's called the herpes of the craft world for a reason. Even when handled with great care, it still takes days to get this stuff off of yourself. And even then you're still not really sure it's all gone...

CPwanderer & I had planned to complete this cache & others earlier in the morning.
But morning showers put a stop to that, so the walk for these were done later in the day.
Considering I ended up slimed, I thought it was rather karmic that CP had glitter.
What's not to like?? Glitter, check: big bucket, check: nice location, check: a favourite Smile
Thanks for the cache Briana the explorer

Planned to walk to this one this morning with clare007 but heavy rain meant we had to jiggle our plans and do this in the afternoon..... still a bit of precipitation … but not to bad!! Very impressive cache!!!! Later in the afternoon I still had bits of glitter shedding from me as some had stuck to the logbook … and then me.... while doing the cache! A favourite!!

I enjoyed the challenge to walk through the bush to the cache. Big Grin Found the cache easily afterwards.

I love caches that make me smile. Favourite point from me. Big Grin

Great cache. Lots of fun. Found on a sunny walk with the family. Off the beaten track a bit and found by Geodaughter after a short search. A lot of effort gone into this one. It's great when people take the time to put some thought into the cache and contents. Swapped TBs. TFTC.
 
I am now also part of the glitter family
Thankyou daddy x

Today I headed south down to the range for a bike race, after racing I stopped by a few caches on the way home.

Some new caches in the scrub, a nice walk along the trail, no snakes were seen thankfully. Arrived at GZ, to make a obvious find, glitter oh glitter oh how does it stick to your hands and everything. Definitely felt glammed up after this one.

Decided to go for a drive today to find a few of the newer caches down this way (it seems I have been in this area a lot over the past few months!) [^]
Parked the car at Gate 19 and went for a nice hike...it was a beautiful day to be out in the bush, warm but not hot with a nice breeze blowing. Big Grin
Didn't take too long to arrive at GZ where I found the big bucket, then a nice surprise when I found the log book...I have now been glittered on the glitter trail. Cool
Thanks for the cache Briana the explorer a favourite for me. Smile
