Logs
We've looked for this one on at least 3 separate occasions. Even the "phone a friend" (ie previous finder) option didn't help. Looking at other logs, we think this one might have gone AWOL. After finding 60 consecutive caches today, this was the last one on the list and to have to log a DNF was a bit of an anti-climax to our successful outing. Oh well, that's caching life for you.
Spent a long time looking for this one in all obvious and not so obvious spots to no avail.
found it purely by accident - OINK!![?] me and bobby g!
reckon iit was not supposed to be where i found it but put it back in same place just in case?!?! Team Seedsman if you wanna contact me i can check with you if where i found it is where it should be - didnt seem quite right?!

Found it quite quickly but was very cautious because we saw a huge spider alive in the information board.
Found with Kay on the way home from Tanunda. There were several spiders, including large redbacks, around GZ. Gloves are highly recommended when searching for this.
No luck for us today:( Reading the past logs we think looking harder would have been more apt. Only when we got to log our visit did we notice the statement " really is a micro"
Being only 5 foot tall this was a bit tricky to reach, but managed it.

Searching in the company of our daughter "Karopi". Couldn't stand still in any one spot for fear of being carried away by ants. Spent quite a while looking but no luck today I'm afraid. TFTC [^]
Nothing for us even though Mr Bushies2 attempted it last night but couldn't find it so we both went back this afternoon before going back to our caravan park nearby, no hint but there are too many red back spiders, not worth to poke around, we even checked the tree but still nothing then the ants started to crawl up my jeans so we gave up. Thanks.
Found at the end of a lovely afternoon caching with friends.Replaced the damp full log . TFTC
Easy find but no room left on log. Would have like to have left something too but it really is a micro!
Found at 10:35 AM with XBRmob. Interesting informative location! Easy find if you look in the last place first.
Only just managed to squeeze entry on log paper. Needs replacing urgently!

Spot on co-ords made for a very quick find.

Cheers and happy caching.

TFTC found after the bull ant nest and some bush bashing, after reading the logs decided it was in or around the shelter. Found at last.
Found on the way to Murray bridge from Port Augusta. Quick easy find just as I like 'em

My GPS was about 10m out today. I looked at the 1/1 star rating and worked out a likely hiding place. SL. Thanks for placing a cache here.
Day 400 of non-stop caching.

We had to search a bit for this one in the late afternoon, but Mr Oldfranko finally said "Aha" & had it in hand.
A quick sign of the log & we headed on to the next one before it got dark.

This was a fun find for #80 - spurred on by the 'two man tower' approach, I jumped on hubbies shoulders and soon had the cache in hand. Might add that this tactic is not necessary - but it was fun TFTC Team Seedsman. SL
Mary drove past this one but redeemed herself by finding the cache fairly quickly. TFTC.
Also thought it was in the tree but reading previous logs decided to check some spots I couldn't see, hoping I didn't meet up with anything that bites! Luckily the only thing I found was metalic! Cute container. TNLN SL TFTC!
Convinced ourselves it was hiding in a nearby tree cos thats where GPS had us looking but determined not to give up when "found it" cry was heard. It is a tricky one! SL. TFTC.
Tricky bugger! Stupid gps had us bush bashing! A bit of a two person tower had it in hand though! Tftc
Found this on a quick trip out to the Barossa. Only had time for a couple of finds and thought this would be a great start.

GeoHusband ventured out a bit too far and stood rechecking the coordinates before GeoWife advised him he was standing in a huge Bull Ants Nest. So after doing the Slap Dance he looked where GeoWife had first suggested and after walking through and touching several cobwebs had the cache in hand. TNLNSL

Owch! Well that was the sound geo-Dad made when Geo-Kitten #1 was boosted into his head. Anyway, the cache was claimed and the log signed. Welcome to the Barossa. Thanks Team BaggyGreens.
Lots of webs..... and eventually the cache!!! Only 100m from where i was staying so a pleasant diversion. TFTC
Took far to long to find this cache... then read back over the logs and realised that my height was the issue!!.. different approach and we soon had cache in hand!

Found by Gawler Trawler on a family day out, lovely day. Sorry it took a long time to log but haven't been online for a while. TFTC

What a cute little container Strike-a-light retrieved it with 2 muggle walkers right nearby but none the wiser!
Almost gave up on this, our GPS had us digging around the trees, hubby had a hunch and went for one last look while we all climbed in the car.
Thanks for the cache

Out for an impromptu caching afternoon with Gemini7 & cjb70aus, Gemini7 found this one for us.

Was up at Angaston to mark out the rally course for the Super Special Stage of the Scouts Rally SA. On the way Home grabbed a few caches on the way.
It is a great spot for a hide - need to think when looking for this one. TFTC.

This is our second visit to this site but today we managed to find the cache quickly with no muggle problems. Good Hide. Now off to sample some of what the Barossa is famous for.

With a bit of a stretch this was an easy find. No Muggles on this Saturday afternoon.

This is one busy little info board. I was muggled out so many times before I finally had the place to myself to search properly. Took a little while but got there in the end. Boy I picked up some spiders webs on my hands looking for this one. TFTC!!
nice hide, though not for those who are vertically challenged.......

We headed straight for the non urban obvious hide only to be disappointed. We moved to the urban loc and with a bit of lifting of geoP we thought we had the cache in hand, but not yet. geoP then searched a bit wider and had the cache in hand fairly easily.

We were just about to give up on this one, the little members of the clan had been doing chin ups
and reckon there was nothing to be found. Lucky Pop took the chance on there being spiders
and searched with his hand, the cache was soon found. Do not give up. TFTC SL
Holy Smoki Catfish Wacka Ma Dooza!!!

A clever hide, and an interesting container. Found during the walenators caching SMASHEX of Western Victoria and the Yorke Peninsular SA. TFTH...SL....TNLN
I was accompanied today by goingtheredoingthat. This was cache find #14 out of 16
I was also afraid to run my hands along anywhere, in case of spiders - I hate those ugly crawlies!!!
I was searching many different places, until it was found by my accompanying geocacher.
Never found a cache container like this one - its quite a cool container

I was busy looking around and kind of had an idea where the cache was but was too nervous to run my fingers around incase of spiders - yep I am wuss! The hubby ended up flexing his muscles by doing a chin up on one of the bars and located it for me - that was his official first find, he usually lets me do all the hard stuff
Found it after some searching and being "interrupted" by two tourists who took a photo of the building in the background.

Probably one of the harder 1/1 caches we have found, but we got there in the end. I quite like the information booth caches. Even though this one was a bit wanting in the info department, it provided an excellent caching cover. Thankyou for organising the cache. SL. Cheers!
4 out of 4 so far today on our quick morning round of caching. We expected to stay for a while searching for this one, but we hit the jackpot straight away. My notes worked well for us on this one. TFTC
Had a little trouble with this one took about 20 mins to find we were just about to give up when we found it. Had to get on my tippy toes to reach. TFTC
A great location for a cache as you don't really have to pretend to be doing anything else where muggles are concerned. Nice pick up on the way to visit the mother in law (aka Shazadam). TFTC
Terrain should be 3 for little people like me. I had to use my special tool to get it. Good hide.
ThanksTeam BaggyGreens for the cache.

Nomad penguin found this cache. Don't think this was wheel chair accessible though... Third of 55 finds today in the company of the penguins. TFTC
The caching day was going well and so far we were managing to dodge the odd shower from the low clouds.
A quickish find.

We circled this one for some time before zeroing in on the cache. Thanks to snapper and Everlasting for replacing it.

Good thing Delta is tall, Echo wouldn't have been able to get this one by herself
Nice to see this one replaced and a good intro cache as I entered the Barossa on a wet and wild Saturday morning.
A short search and a good hide.
Thanks Team Baggy Greens
