A nice walk into GZ and the container was found a bit of playing around and the bloody nano was free. Today with an event in the morning and another in the evening in the southern suburbs, Courtneyrose_ and I decided to head south for the day finding caches around the area and making the most of the nice weather on offer. Thanks for the cache

Cool

Found the giant huntsman, but bailed before we could sign the log..... Fav for the cache. Super cool idea

Thanks

Found it on 26/3/23

Great to be back in this park. Puzzle found and retrieved quickly.

Not too many roos close by so MrP climbed the tree. Eventually got the nano out the hole, signed log and steered it back to starting place. Fave for the great idea. TFTC!

An interesting puzzle. The lost nano has lots of wild life friends. Spiders and ants.

Insert nano rant here.

Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

SA’s Leap Year Event - keep the date free - 29th February 2024. Can’t wait!!

This was an interesting cache. First I navigated to the wrong object (I don't know how I did that) and then I coudn't spot the cache (it was literally right there). Then I struggled to actually get to the correct level to work on the field puzzle. I am covered in bruises and scratches

Despite this, I really enjoyed this cache. Nicely done azzo7777 - gets a FP from me for being something a little different. Thankfully the nano was not dropped, gravity helped me back down and the landing was safe. TFTC!

I didn't need the tool to get the cache out because the Nano fell out when I grabbed the box. I used the tool to put the Nano back to it's start point. Ants were inside and stated coming out while I was handling the cache which added a extra bit of a challenge. Favourite point added. TFTC azzo7777

Sparkie and Goldy are back for another drive around the Aldinga region for a few recently solved mystery caches.

After our 2+ hour walk in Kuitpo forest we made our way back for more caches at Aldinga.

Located the cache was quick, getting the nano out was not. Ants were crawling out and made it very hard to hold and navigate while being crawled on/bitten.

Got it out eventually and... God has killed a kitten.

I heard something about a badge level thingy for writing longer logs... so feel to ignore from this point onwards.

Thanks for going to the effort to prepare, hide and submit this geocache for me to find, another smiley for my geomap.

Thanks to the cache owners who do regular maintenance checks to ensure other players have an enjoyable experience when out in the field.

Your cache has been retrieved and the log book has been signed with the trusty stamp or a good old pen on paper, with the exception of virtuals, EarthCaches and webcams of course.

Thanks azzo7777 for this cache.

This cache brings Goldy's total find count to 2258 on the 30th of December 2022.

Found and retrieved logbook. Signed, and returned. On our way to GZ we saw some roos. FP for a cool cache.

Tftc!! You did an excellent job!

Found during a morning of caching from Normanville to Aldinga with Team Waldron following an early breakfast event at Brighton and a CITO at Sellicks. A fun field puzzle to extract the nano. Thanks for the cache azzo7777!

The field puzzle was quickly solved and the cache retrieved.

Neat idea.

First to find on the 15th of December 2022. We had been down this way about 2 hours ago but hey its a FTF, so off we went again!
So good to see azzo being creative again, nicely made cache well worth a Favourite Point for the craftsmanship and the idea. We had a lovely walk in with just a few skippies for company who couldnt be bothered even getting up as we walked past, they clearly know they are nice and safe in here. Good to see a tree climb that wasnt too daring, be a shame to fall out of a tree this close to Christmas Holidays. We did what was required and finally got our hands on the cache, then the next challenge of that nice new log sheet, but all done eventually. We replaced the cache nicely so it was sitting in the correct spot and clambered down the tree.
Thanks azzo for the cache, great job. TNLNSL
