A nice quick cache while caching in the area with 2SG and Sharkbait2005. TFTC

Family holiday in Coffin Bay after last year's break due to Covid. No fishing today due to 30 knot northerlies. Bit of caching the go. Did the clamber, and kept thinking, why put a cache here. Found after short search. Tftc

After a bit of a scramble down the bank and a short walk in the Bush, cache was in hand tftc

After a little scramble the cache was in hand! Tftc snowone.

Found easily. The shrubs ate all flowering and the bush looks pretty right niw. Tftc

Didnt leave a note as I didnt have a pen.

I was down in Pt Lincoln with Laighside Legends for the long weekend and our plan was to head out and cache our way towards Coffin Bay and the surrounding area. It was a warm and pleasant day to be out and all caches that were found were in reasonably good condition. As it got close to the midday event we bumped into Mr Tardis and one of the nearby caches. The nearby event was an enjoyable affair, joined my Aussie M&M, Mogni and Mr Tardis, food was eaten and stories were swapped. At the close of the event, we continued to cache around the area before finally heading back to Lincoln for an evening event. It was an enjoyable evening at the pub to end the days caching before heading back to our accommodation in preparation for our next days caching.

TFTC

So an event or two got put on in an area that I have not cached, so a weekend trip was organised. Aussie M & M joined geodog Chloe and me for the fun yet exhausting trip. left Adelaide early Saturday mornng and I got home about 12:30 Tuesday morning...
Thanks to snowone from mogni

Staying in Tumby Bay for a few days we set off finding the caches around here cleaning up a lot of unfounds from previous trips, no mushrooms spotted today. TFTC

Thanks for the cache

On a warm, sunny afternoon, there were no mushrooms to be found out here by the roadside
Just a cache or two.

Nice bit of scenery too up on high !!

Camping at Coffin Bay, on our 2nd trip around Australia.
Decided to have a look around the area, and pick up some caches on the way.
Visited some interesting bushland & lots of lovely beach locations.
The cache was found quickly, but the container needs replacing,
Many thanks for the hunt today, snowone.

Easy find

Easy find

Gd hide, container needs to b replaced.

A nice quick find - TFTC

Really disappointed that I didn't bring my maintenance bag as this needs new box and log book. Great spot though

A short walk to find!! Needs new container and book unfortunately didn't have any with me!! Great cache

Not being very fit we weren't sure whether to try this one or not but it wasn't that far out so we decided to give it ago. Although we didn't find any mushrooms the cache turned into a relatively easy find. Unfortunately the container lid is cracked and the contents quite wet. We dried them out as best as possible but unfortunately we had used up all our spare containers on previous caches so had to put it back as it was.
Thanks snowone for the cache

Straightforward cache found quickly and needs re-rating .. enjoyed the journey here though.
Thank you.

The difficulty rating belies it's easyness. Found easily after a sodden walk from the road.
Cheers from the Posspet Boys

This was our 3887th overall find.

Found at 1:46 PM. I was not sure about the hint on this cache as where we found the cache there was nothing needed to get it, then I read the previous logs and realised that it may have been hidden elsewhere previously. The plastic bag that has been put around the cache has perished on the sun and the container has a cracked lid and could do with some maintenance. I left it where I found it as I wasn't sure where it should be. Didn't spot any mushrooms today

Thanks snowone for the cache.

Found easily, I love this countryside, not too many mushies though...

This was an easy drive by find !! Not sure about mushroom country but enjoyed it just the same !!

A beaut view here which is a worthy spot for a 4000 find memory. (pics).

Found this cache on the ground and a bit beaten up. Replaced is a safe spot so it is all safe and well. Perhaps some TLC by the owner would not go astray. Perhaps the terrain rating is a 2 now.

The turning circle of a Western Star is not the same as a Landcruiser. This was proved at this spot.

Clear skies from TeamAstro and our thanx to snowone for this memorable spot [^]. TeamAstro's 4000 finds have taken us to some beautiful spots and more importantly forged some brilliant friendships along the way. While the game can be frustrating at times, we all must remember that it is a game. That's the best part!!!

Remember it's not about the numbers.

Found it! Still in need of maintenance. Delta could reach it without the aid of tools! Need a stick to retrieve out of its hiding place though.

Tried to re-wrap and waterproof as much as possible.

Cache container missing one of the plastic clips and has a hole in the lid. Despite cache being wrapped in plastic bag and log book in snaplock bag both were damp. Unfortunately we didn't have any replacement containers with us.

A quick drive out to find a couple of caches after being stuck inside for most of the weekend. A quick search and geowife called out "I've found it"...... great, hope you can retrieve it... Had just finished writing in the logbook how "quiet and peaceful" the afternoon was when we heard the sound of muggle (or perhaps geo) kids coming closer through the scrub. Was not expecting any other people out here. Geowife quickly returned cache to GZ and we headed back to the car. Saw a family heading through the scrub on the other side of the road as we drove away.

GOOD FEED OF MUSHROOMS WOULD BE NICE GOOD SPOT TFTC
HAPPY CACHING TRAVEL SAFELY

yeah found wit wheres wolly TFTC TNLN

No trouble for a tall frog. If you are in town try "2, 7, 9, 10". Mwhahahahahaha.

Great hide

Gave nephews head start and I think they stood next it for 5 minutes saying it wasn't there. Extra equipment hint didn't mean much to them i think. lol Theyfelt pretty silly afterwards

I spent a few minutes digging in stumps when the Wife pointed it out to me.

At 10.35h, I had to call Arntie B for assistance, she's such a cute possum. I see we were following Liz & Bruce. Took - Nothing. Left - IKEA pencil & asstd trinkets. TFTC Needs maintenance.

Quick find. Thanks snowone

The sun has worked it's evil magic on the cache container, which has become quite brittle and is in need of replacing.

Found 17:05, after a brief search in this interesting location.

TNLN, CSI=3, thanks snowone.

Last one for the day, and it appears this is the first find for 2008, and yes it's still there after sending Nick to get it.

Cheers from Barra 2 & 4

Found the cache at 12.20pm. Phew! must be my luck day... Thank snowone for organise the cache and hunt. (sent email to owner)

Third cache of 15 today. Before I arrived, I had already guessed how the cache was going to be hidden, and I was not wrong. I grabbed it easily, but the container's clips were all but gone. There is one on properly, one just hanging on (but of no use), and a third came off in my hand. The fourth is nowhere to be seen.

I checked my car but didn't have a suitable replacement container, so the best I could do was to place the container within a plastic ziplock bag. Could the next person bring a suitable cliplock container around 1 litre in size.

My thanks to snowone.

Had a little problem the last time i was here. No problems this time i stayed on my feet.
T Toy car to empty cache a little.

It looks as if we are following the same path as Redmond. Got very wet while retrieving this one. Seems to be the story of the day.
Took nothing
Left nothing

this was the last of a drive for this afternoon. I think that the farmers that where fencing up the road thought we were lost as we found and returned past them within 1/4 of an hour. Nice place to hide a cache, lots of new growth from after the fire.

Took me a while to work out where it was.....with several good spots nearby, i was lead astray.

Thanks for the cache, left TB.

Had me going in circles for a mintue, I still couldn't believe the terrain rating (see pic) but then....
#1 spotted it, #2 retrieved it, I supervised.
challenging recovery, now I understand the stars. TFTH

Spent a couple of mins looking around in all the usual spots, before sighting it from about 10m away.

Interesting area, that was a little bit windy today.

TNLNSL

Having read the logs took an altitude enhancer with me which made it easy to retrieve the cache. Took tape measure and added Port Power keyring.
Jim & Chris

This cache was really good.... very cleverly hidden.I had to get my daughter to get it! swapped stickers and pencil sharpener for the MR bean watch.. Thanks for the great cache..B*ds

Found this one early but i think i got confused when dating the log.

TNLN SL

Thanks Snowone

Very interesting. Diesel had a note in the log so can't claim first to find. Good hiding spot and well camouflaged. Managed to retrieve it and replace it, using primitive technological instrument, which just happened to be present, rather than agility, which wasn't. Some tempting contents, but in the end TNLNSL. Thanks for another challenging cache, Snowone. I will be putting one down the road in Wanilla soon and took the opportunity to do some scouting around while looking for yours.By the way, my Garmin put me right on the spot, but there were some size 69 boot marks in the damp soil which confimed I was heading in the right direction.
