Seem to think its not in the fork of a tree chest height but toe level. All good we are from WA
Out and about now slowly making my way to Melbourne. Got a few targets I am after and should get them in the next day or two
Just on the way back from Adelaide, took a quick stop and loved where this little cache was. Thank you for the fun cache
I was driving past on my way to Adelaide and taking notice of the cache name stopped for a while to get this cache. Thank you Skippy for placing and maintaining this cache.
After over seven weeks on the road, I'm back home and finally catching up on all my logging.Caching in South Australia was fantastic, so many good hides to find, and we found ourselves zigzagging all over the place doing lots of geoart but of course ran out of time to get everything done on our to-do list.The majority of caches we found were in great condition and well maintained, which is a credit to all the CO's who placed them, so thank you.Our logs were mostly signed as 5 for QLD to save room on the log sheets, and no doubt, we'll be back again in the future ??
A February Mega brought us to Adelaide. Our group is travelling together and signing logs as 5 for QLD.Today we journey from Adelaide to Mount Gambier.Took a short break, as instructed.Log signed and cache replaced as found on 12 March 2024. TFTC, Skippy

Road tripped to Adelaide for theLeap Day Mega, caching all the way and trying to fulfil various challenges.This cache-which challenge/why? oldieMeandering home now and as it's a 42C day, I spent a few hours by and mostly IN the river at Tailem Bend.Rolling on, I stopped for this one and found the hint has changed- try ankle height. All good here.TFTC
What a whirlwind of a week for us in SA as we attack trails with mates, DT, specific types for personal challenges, old caches and just damn good ones. With so much on offer we barely knew where to start but as we headed slowly home we picked up a few more.Stopping for another 4 digit cache here as we travel down the highway.Thanks Skippy. for the old placement.
SL at 1:23pm. Bdiaw, MuggleMasterKid9 and myself are Adelaide bound today for an appointment tomorrow at the Women's and Children's Hospital. So, caching along the way it is. Caught up to Aussie Fun Seakers as they were leaving. Safe travels! A quick pitstop and an easy find here today by myself.*Signed log as FWD and MMK9.*TFTC Skippy and the challenge!
Another quick stop and another good cacheDropped TBSigned log and replaced where foundTFTC
A few spare days to fill before Christmas so I made the decision to hit the road and go on a road trip from Adelaide to Ballarat. The main purpose of the trip is to tackle the Ballarat Geo Tour before they get archived in February 2024. Day 5 was the long drive home. I stopped a few times for food and caching. Quick find here and then back on the road. I had this old cache on my radar for a long time so it was good to finally tick it off. Thanks for the cache Skippy.# # #13891 # #
Continuing on my South Australian adventure. I stopped by this cache. A quick find was made and the log signed. With everything returned as found, I continued on my way. TFTC
Had to stop for an oldieThank you Skippy for breaking up my long journey to from Leongatha to Swan Reach to do the OYB series.
Very hot day, At first I thought SPC meant Spray Paint can After spending 3min + trying to open an old rusted spray paint can, I eventually found it! Tyftc
School holiday fun means a road trip to explore parts of SA we’ve never been too. This is familiar territory though. Nice easy find on the way through. Thanks for the fun and adventure.
Last one for the day on our trip back to Adelaide. Quick find here, nicely hidden and nice to log an old cache.

Another quick drive-by cache with naughtybunny on our road trip to the Grampians. Now it was time to head back home. Boo. We decided to spend a little grabbing some caches along the way and this was the final one for our trip - number 49. This one was found quite quickly. TNLN. Cheers.
A nice easy find while passing by. All is good here, cheers.

Well there was an event I saw published in Bordertown hosted by Roaming Howie and since I was able to have 4 days off I decided to head over to attend the event and then to also do a few of the On Ya Bike series to finish off my D/T loop.
Throw a few oldies into the mix for my Ausmer grid and it was going to be a busy weekend with lots of Km’s.
So after attending the event, finding the ones required on the OYB series, surviving the heat then wind and having a good nights sleep last night today is a new day.
After checking my map I realised I had missed a challenge series yesterday so I came back up this way to find those ones.
I’m now heading back in the right direction with a few hours delay.
Collecting caches that I come past as I have a bit more time on my hands today.
A nicer day today with the heat turned down a bit.
This is one of the caches that I was targeting on this trip to fill my Ausmer Grid.
Seeing where the location was I don’t know why I hadn’t done it sooner.
Great to see another oldie still in play.
Big things are continuing to happen! Are you joining the fun again in 2023?

Another move was made to go a bit further north with goingplaces2 and just doing a bit of caching along the way. This cache was quickly found. No problem with it. TFTC.
With another fine day happening we were on the road again with ilook4geo. This was one of the caches we found and both names were soon noted on the log to mark our visit. Thank you to Skippy for placing this cache.
Out on a beautiful Spring Day for a Daughter / Father’s bonding day for a scenic drive with a chance of Geocaching Failure Success.
Many thanks for the maintenance of the caches to make an enjoyable day out.

Grub62 and I were returning home from a holiday and thought that this cache would be good for a break along the way. When we arrived at GZ we had a bit of a hunt around then looked back to see the cache staring at us. TFTC.
Bunadoorian and I stopped here for a break - to grab this cache and to have strudel we picked up at Hahndorf before leaving this morning. Cache was found in good condition. TFTC

sadly couldn’t find this one. we feel as if it might’ve been moved as we searched all around the area it should’ve been. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Missed a weekend in the South East earlier this year due to the dreaded plague.
Took a drive roughly in that direction this weekend with Sebastbat to make up for it a little.
We'll be back
We found your cache Skippy. thanks for putting it out here!
Should be driving home... but took the safety advice and - just one more
Cache still in good condition considering the age!
Stay safe, sanitise, exercise, cache the regions at a distance ! ! !
Come visit the Barossa with your cache hides anytime [:o)]
TFTC left TB:GSBFK0 behind, perhaps the next person who stops can continue its journey
Today I headed down the south-east and into Victoria from Adelaide with FeatherWaite. It was rather warm, but mostly we weren’t too far away from the vehicle so stayed cool. We didn’t find a lot of caches, but we covered quite a few kilometres and the caches that we found were, for the most part, ones that we had targeted. There were also a few opportunistic finds along the way.
Thanks Skippy for the cache.
Thanks Skippy for the cache.
KGS had a crazy idea of an extended weekend finding as many caches as possible, starting from the mega and then onto SA!! We went from the airport straight to the mega, got the first lot of lab caches, and then it was onward and upward into SA! Stopping for random caches to stretch the legs, did not even realise at the time how old this one was!! TFTC!!
