Todays plan was for a casual day starting at the event at Moonta. Plans soon changed when we had to visit Clare. Off we went with a detour to Wallaroo for a very clever puzzle, then lunch at Auburn and just a few more caches that were on our (roundabout) way Wink home to Ardrossan.All in all a fun day to end our 2023.TFTC Tk2

Quick one of these today, one of the nicer ones I found on my trip

With a few days off back in Adelaide I decided to head to the mid north again after still having some caches to find up this way from my last visit 2 weeks ago, nice to be driving around on the back roads exploring new places and seeing the country side.

Thanks for the cache

Away for a couple of days with TheWhiteDogGang.

We stayed at the free camping in Blyth and cached around Blyth, Brinkworth, Yacka, Spalding, Clare, Stanley Flat and surrounds.

Most caches found were in good order.

An easy find on our last BBB for the weekend. 6 in total. All finds.

Another cache found on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.

Unbelievably, we made a quick find due to accurate coordinates.

We are enjoying our time travelling SA, fantastic towns, ruins, beaches and cliffs. Our thanks to all the COs for taking us on this geo-guided tour.

We enjoyed a day caching without having to travel too far from home. We found a mixture of multis, letterboxes and regular caches.
Thank you to those who took the time to hide these caches and made our day enjoyable.

Found during a day of caching randomly following the arrow to see where it would lead. Twenty six caches for the day as I meandered from Bowmans to Riverton, Tarlee and Kapunda. Thanks for the cache Tk2!

Today was my second day of caching around Clare. After the JAMMs team headed out to play the game I got myself organized for the journey home.
I collected some more caches on the way but also had 5 annoying dnfs and was cross with myself for forgetting the new caches published yesterday. Never mind will never clear the map .
Another 10km walked and more smiley faces ticked off the map.
My thanks to all the hiders for your contributions.
Smelly rotten cacti delightful at least I found this one! TFTC

Found, with earthlight, after attending a lovely afternoon event. Cached our way towards home.
Had a preconceived idea of what the cache might be but was wrong, remember to look at the size... Duh!
A PAF put me in the right direction... I was standing almost on it.

The usual Wednesday Wander for members of Befuddled Puzzle solving group had us heading once again in search of solved puzzles and anything else we might be passing. Today it was myself, SA Sewer Rats and Astro. [:o)] Today we were meeting at the Rat's Nest before heading northwards towards our ultimate goal of reaching the new caches at Clement's Gap. Cool There were the usual laughs[^], bad jokesRazz, a couple of FTF'sBig Grin and some more DNF's to add to a list that should be shrinking and not increasing. [:(!] A big day out with me not getting home until 1.00 a.m. the next day and Astro even later.Surprised

Someone had to climb up for a look. That someone was me. To my surprise I spied the cache, extracted it, stamped the logbook, handed it to the others and replaced it without getting pricked or drawing blood. SmileSurprisedSurprisedSurprisedSurprised My kind of BBB. And a nice bit of history. Razz

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. Twisted So once again I will trying to get the other two this year. [^] Should be easy as I only have to get two multi caches in July from the lockdown and couldn't get out. [:o)] The other was DNF's that came down from over 50 to the low teens before blowing out again but I really want to see only single a single digit this year. Cool

***Thanks Tk2 for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin

It was time for a Wednesday wander.
A trio of Befuddled puzzlers met at the Rat's den, to go north.
The trio consisted of SA Sewer Rats, Brisal5 and Astro.

It was day filled with adventures, stories, laughter and caches.
We set off with a list of targeted caches.
Most of the targeted caches were found.

This one took a bit searching.
But Brisal persisted and came up trumps, stamped the logbook.
Then we were on our way north and beyond. Tftc

Spent a lovely Friday afternoon with Mr and Mrs froghoppin wandering around the valley and nearby.

Found a few logbooks to stamp along the way...

Can't say we were too sad when we read the name of the cache Surprised
Luckily not so prickly underfoot.
A passing farmer in a tractor didn't seem to think anything weird was going on with three people hopping around on the prickly plant [:o)] Must happen all the time!

Many thanks to Tk2 for placing and maintaining this cache on our country SA geo game map Cool

Wandering, finding and signing cache logs alone or with family and friends using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Whereyougo, Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S21u, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just plain old dumb luck WinkCoolBig Grin Plenty of that luck stuff actually!!!
*Logs are composed and published using GSAK of course.*

Caching is a hazardous activity!
Keep a lookout for sand traps, snakes, surprise cliffs, boxing roos, wombats, angry gnomes, bulldust, and floods,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- but especially lookout for any old bugs from alpha to omega !!! . [xx(]

Try to keep Travel Bugs as the only bugs you share and pass on Big Grin
Now everything's opening more - even more important to sanitise and safely distance!!!


Really good of all those placing quality caches out and about around the countryside areas,
in sensible safe places especially! - it keeps our game safe, fun, and interesting Cool

Thanks heaps for reading all this addition to the log word count! There's a challenge somewhere, apparently! You win a virtual smile for the effort and getting to the end of the log Wink

Met up with Mattycat after a half day work shift, had a stroll along the reisling trail before heading off for a drive to collect a couple of newish caches that had been placed recently, this was one of them a easier to navigate the thorny leaves to GZ then usual, Mr frog hoped through the dead leaved to find a shiny cache and left our mark happy in the knowledge we had completed all the BBB caches for now

Finally On way home we found this one as previous Visit shorts and Thongs not appropriate to find a pathway to this one. But with the Right long pants on and a pair of steel cap rubber boots was able to find a pathway and reach with a hand to claim this one as a Silver. Just watch where you step small steps one at a time signed and placed back to shine. TFTC.

Well arrived on a St Patricks drive well a little green in middle but dry brown too near edges. But our arms don’t stretch that far only a
Round 3 of more meters short in arm length to get this one and not walking in on those dangerous dried up sharp Spines you will definitely damage. So please be careful doing this one make sure you have someone else with you to help.
