Made A New Account Found It On My Old One TFTC

Knew the cache had been archived due to problems with it, but also knew it was still in-situ as others have logged since (although they wouldn't have been able to sign the log book).
Finally going past today and found that the cache wasn't just waterlogged, but had been muggled, with contents strewn around by the creek.
Found the lid, pages of the logbook (which I'll try to dry out - email me if you want it), broken pencils, a plastic logbook bag, a rusty pencil sharpener, and some other stuff which now looked like crappy rubbish, but I suspect was once swaps. Base could not be located, but I suspect it has floated down stream.
Gathered all the bits up, along with some other rubbish and removed; and since removal has been binned.
An interesting little spot.
This will be the final smiley for this cache now.
Thanks Team Willy Wallies and Scouts_Honour for your original placement, I'm sure everyone who came enjoyed the little spot.

Cheers

Still there, Still wet!

T.F.T.C [^][^]

Thank's i,riblit at least the vegetation will have a chance of recovery now.

In order to log a cache the log book must be signed.
My earlier note about maintenance has been ignored.

Didnt record in log book as the cache has been damaged by water. Needs attending to.

every thing was wet couldn't sign log needs work

found while walking dogs EDDIE & JAKE TNLN as every thing in cache is wet, great spot this time of the year, creek running the boys decided to go for a swim ! to good a spot to archive.

Found it and can confirm that water is still in cache. TNLN TFTC

Found it relatively quickly, but needs maintenance. Completely waterlogged (including log book).
Creek ran a 'banker' above hight of cache earlier in week.

Found on August 7 but didn't log the find then - just the fact that it was wet and soggy. Couldn't sign log.

Wet wet wet. Needs new log books and maybe a care instruction on how to put the log awat to keep it dry.

Hide was fine with a layer of water in the container which would not have hurt the swaps but damaged the logs.

Wet Wet Wet.

TN LN could not sign the log as it was wet.

Another find by geopom. fairly easy find.

TNLN

TFTC

The cache is rather wet, log book is unreadable as its full of water. There was an inch of water in the bottom of the cache

Found it ok but unfortunately container has water in it and everything very soggy.

Easily found but the cache is completely soaked and needs attention (as per other logs). We drained out the water but thats only atemporaryfix.

Came along with my son and my daughter
To find this cache all filled up with water
Some muggle was careless
Just lights-on-upstairless!
A maintenance log now I oughta

Some mug has pulled this cache out, had a look and left it with the lid off. Completely filled with water. Everything totally soaked, new log book will be required, old ones still (just) legible. Drained and replaced the cache where it looks like it had usually been hidden, but it needs attention.

We have been watching this cache for a long time & is in serious need of maintenance but neither of the owners has been on since 2008. The location of the cache is also causing damage to the local environment each time it's visited as it's on the edge of a waterway. We have tried to contact both owners in the past re this cache without response.

Nice easy find at the end of a day out... took Eraser left pencil sharpener

A quick find, but didn't see any travel bug inside

#199

Great hide, very clever

Found by Mrs 4evermore on way to visit Granny in nursing home nearby.
Muggles zooming by so logged, swapped and out of there quickly.
Took - 2 x TB / Left - 1 x TB.
TFTC

At 16.30h, it was number 2 for the local newbies. I think at least one of them is hooked! Took - Nothing. Left - IKEA pencil & TB Ferdinand Frog & TB Alien Racer #3. TFTC

Found after Mrs Yoink! had a woman look. No swaps. TFTC

It was a bit slippery tonight. Walked straight past it the first time. Took Triceratops and left USB PS2 adapter. Thanks!

Geotrail made this an easy find. TNLN TFTC

Walked along the riverbed before remembering something about a geohighway in the logs, then saw the location straight away. The trail and cache location have become pretty well-worn over the years. Covered the cache with some leaf camo after tucking it back into the hiding spot. TFTC.

Great one to find with the geo-kids. Lots of places to explore.

Took: Whistle. Left: Styracosaurus.

TFTC

My First. YAY!

Jardry

Found (after MRS TiedyeSmileys with GPS in hand, pointed me into (incorrectly) a pricklebush which left most of its prickles in my back)

TNLN

TiedyeSmileys

found it with small search. great place and good to see soccer training down the raod. kids found it okay. TNLNSL

Took the kids on this one. My son wanted the Spyglass, so took that and left the C.I.T.O. film cannister.
TFTC

A busy area and started looking in the wrong spot but soon worked out the right path. Didn't have my GPS with me so had to scout around.

I love the path cachers wear out in the most unlikely spots.

TFTC

Coin Dip

After a bit of scratching around found it.
Out 2 x TB
In Spy glass and glow in the dark fish

coin out 2x bugs in!

quick find good area a few Muggles about but not bad to place
back again this cache is leaking a bit of water

tnlGC Koakai's geocoin Club Anniversary edition

Jagged an overtime shift at Golden Grove Fire Station today so it allowed me to do some of the caches out that way. A quick find on dusk. TNLNSL.

GPS was jumping around a bit so the find took a while. Recent rains have wet the cache contents a little. TFTC

The creek was bubbling away and was quite deep near GZ so I was careful not to fall in
After a couple of false starts I eventually found the correct way into GZ and began my search for the cache.
Found without too much poking around I'm happy to say
The inside was a bit wet, but the important bits of the cache were still dry
I signed the book and removed a few items that were never going to recover from the drenching.
TFTC.

found with polkys quest

A nice easy find. Took nothing, left soldier.

rocko-jade

Found fairly easily accompanied by geo-workmates. TNLN. TFTC.

Found easily, but geotrail is recovering well.

Found easily due to the highway.
T Coin, LN.
Thanks Team Willy Wallies
Swampy

Eventually zeroed in on this one and made it past the spider web. No sign of the flip flop TB but left NZ Fern geocoin. TFTC

found easily

Lots of spider webs but pretty easy to find

nice spot some of the swaps were wet
TNLNSL TFTC

Found easily the gpsr settled down. No swaps or muggles today. Drained water out of cache. These boxes are notoriously leaky!
TFTH
Maux Faux

contents - ie swaps are all a bit soggy. Drained cache, but might need a new and more watertight container. Logs safe and dry in the baggy.

Went for a bit of a slide, but found it OK. TNLN Left new notepad

Found, after walking past it 3 times. TNLN.

Found the cache at Accompanied with Lava12. What pity - river is dry no water... Took Trevor Trout TB. SL. Thanks Team Willy Wallies and Scouts_honour for organising the cache and hunt.


No another TB - "Far Flung Flip Flop" in the cache...

Accompanied with Everlasting. Found it ok. We did not get our shoes wet. Thanks

Dropped off Trevor Trout to wait for water. Cache needs a new log book.

Lucky # 13th find. Not far from home.

2nd find of the day - cache is starting to get a bit damp and mouldy - we didnt have anything to dry it out with sorry. TFTC. Saucehead, Lulu and ATG. TNLN

Quick visit for a TB swap but no TB there!!

Found at 6:00PM by Ray and Maya on the 25th of Dec as we walk off the excess food we have consumed today. Unfortunately the container was full of water. We drained it and dried the contents as best we could. The log book was dry enough to record in. TNLN. Thanks for the walk. The Nomads

Sprinted in to find this one. Found it instantly. Cheers Gav [1567]

Finally getting around to logging the record breaker Thanks!

Cheers M [:O)](815)

7:53 p.m. This cache was found on our record-breaking attempt to find the most caches in a 24 hours period; we ended up finding 195 all up.

Thanks to all the cachers who placed these interesting caches in Adelaide.

I only wish we could have spent more time appreciating the locations that we visited on our whistle stop tour.

TNLN

Another find during our 24 hour record attempt. TFTC.

Kiwi Cache Raid: #170 @ 19:53
Probably found these two as quickly as they were published.
Thanks to all Adelaide cachers for helping with our quest.
Cheers - M@

Must be in Willy wallie country.

TFTC

Great location for grandsons who live nearby. (Notebook is full)

A quick nab of a few in the area - found this one quickly (this time), must've had my eyes open for a change - TFTC

Had to look in quite a few places , but still was quickly found.
Took spinning top.
Left black & white cat.
Didn't see any TB[?]
SL.
Thanks Team Willy Wallies [^].

Gotta love that smell: stagnant water full of wrigglers and decaying plant matter. [xx(]
Ignoring all of that, relatively simple find. TFTC

It is surprising how hard this was to find yet was so obvious once located. Thanks.

took r f d s tb, definetly no far flung flip flop in the cache .... daughter found 1x toy next to cache location, maybe it has fallen out during a night find. it was to busy for me to investigate further.

Took a while to find this one. Mrs S stayed on the other bank and watched. Discovered TB.
Thanks Team Willy Wallies.

visited today and left a TB. picked up a key ring. couldn't see any TB in the cache before we left one.

Lots of tracks around those bushes - the neighbours must wonder what all the attention is about. Thanks for the cache!

Nice easy find and an interesting hide, took skirt for geo girl and left an aray of small toys, a compass and some stationary. TFTC SL

Found by snorky with help from little snorky. The cache is a bit full and the lid is hard to close. Nice little area with good parking nearby. TNLN. Thanks for the cache.

We have sent an email to Scouts Honour re the geotrail as Team willy Wallies have not responded to previous emails & logs.

Found it with Foxzami

good to not find a mouldy log book in this one TNLN nice skirt...

Easy find by FF1 - geo highways now have parking bays! Sad stuff. Cache was also pretty well exposed so we replaced it with a bit more camo. TNLNSL TFTC

Find 59 without a GPS at 3.30pm

A great little spot for a cache
Well done Willy Wallies
TNLNSL

Wee Jock and the Kelda found this one while the rest of the clan were still in bed, the slackers Took a bit of scrambling at first but then we took a step back and noticed a fairly obvious clue

Took travel bug (our first!!!), highlighter and lizard. Left foamies, skirt and sticky tape. Couldn't sign log as the pen didn't work and the log is quite damp

Will be relocating TB in the immediate future

Thanks guys for a quick local cache to keep the awake ones occupied while the rest slept

quick visit to drop of bug. no coins to be seen.... until today monday 16th july!! i'm blaming the boy because i know the password and he does'nt . To my defence the bug was hiding inside the log book!!! doh!!!

fOUND EASILY Took car and left a Saturn geocoin

Found it fairly easily thanks to the geotrails, but had to let muggle geokid with us "Find" it as she wanted to find one herself so I kind of led her in the right direction and said you look under here while I look over there..... Took TB Diabetes and swapped money 90cents for a car. TFTC

Found this cache on my trip with Cooroy Scouts to SA for our final RDMH requirements.
