Found it! Set off today in the general direction of areas I have yet to make a start on (Murray Bridge, Monarto, Mt Barker - all a sea of unfound caches on the map)! Realised while walking to this one there was a section option for crossing the tracks, seems like you have the choice of under as well as over! TFTC!
Stay the night? No thanks. I can think of better ways to spend my days! We could certainly hear them play football on the oval there as naughtybunny and I wandered towards this cache. It was found very quickly as there weren't too many places where it could have been. We wondered why these trees were ring-barked though... Nasty. TNLN. Cheers.
Chookster and I spent a beautiful day walking & caching around the Northern trails at Kinchina CP today. We've previously walked this section of the Lavender Trail, and it was nice to revisit the area. We had pretty good weather and no DNF's for the day, which is always great!

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location.
(HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do.

I made this my last find as I headed back to the car on Netley Rd, and at the time I was there I had forgotten that the prison was so close by. The cache was an easy find and in fair condition. Thanks for this placement Barramundis.
Found It!
I think I might have finally finished this series now. Or what's left of it at least. No need to stay the night here!

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to Kinchina Conservation Park with our mountain bikes, with our aim to ride the Cypress Hill Trail. This is a reasonably new trail only opened in late 2019. We ended up riding the trail one way, and then returned via the geocaches in the area, so a number of short detours. We then had a bakery lunch in Murray Bridge and did a short sweep of a few of our previous DNFs, before stopping off at Nairne on our return back to Adelaide due to a few new multi-caches just published this morning. A great winter day with the sun out.
Having ridden the Cypress Hill Trail, we extended our ride to this cache before turning around. There was a fair amount of rubbish around GZ, but at least I quickly spotted the cache. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks The Barramundi's for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Spent a rare Monday afternoon off with the lovely Purrfect Di,
finding a cache or two... what a romantic way to spend the day
Managed to sneak past and sign without any snipers - but not staying the night lol.
Another nice old cache ticked off the list. A long walk here today from the other end of the park.

HavWalker12 & I decided to tackle the Rocky Gully Reserve.
A false start to the day, but we were soon heading out to a potential parking spot.
A gorgeous day for walking & we still managed to work up a sweat after hours of walking.
HavWalker came prepared with spare container,
good thing too as it wouldn't have lasted much longer.

Clare007 & I decided to tackle the very up & down Rocky Gully caches (Murray Bridge end). The day began with a flat tyre & calling the RAA. Had it fixed in 20 minutes then off to the start. It was a beautiful day, just perfect for a big day of walking & caching. Completed 16 caches after wandering 5.5hrs. There were a lot of variety in the caches and the scenery was amazing.
This was our first one to kick off the day. I had read previously that the container had big holes in it so came prepared with a new container. Luckily I did because when we took it from it's hide it practically crumbled in our hand. The log was ok. TFTC The Barramundi's.

We decided to get some of the caches, in the Rocky Gully, which we had not found yet, and today was the day. Thanks to The Barramundi's.
We found that the container is sun damaged with large holes, and the log book is wet.

We are coming to the end of our ten week stay in Murray Bridge and thought it was about time we found the five hides at the back end of the Rocky Gully Conservation Park
We parked beside the railway line on Netley Rd (S35 06.503 E139 14.224) and headed along the Lavender Federation Trail.
This was our first find on a warm but heavily clouded balmy day with a lovely stiff breeze to keep us cool.
Many thanks for the hide The Barramundi's[^]

I am still in the area after the SA MEGA and there are a few more caches to find.
I stayed in town to find all of those caches I had missed over the last couple of days.
A big thank you to all of the cachers that have been involved with the MEGA.
This cache was the start of a couple oh hours walking around the hills.

South Australian OZ Mega 2014 in Murray Bridge. A Twelve day trip to and from the mega. Plenty of caching along the way and near Murray bridge. A great time with lots of cachers all over the place to make for a very entertaining period.
I joined up with Sol de Lune for the lead up to the Mega and the mega itself. Mega Day 4, and the day to collect 10 cache types. Letterbox, traditional, multi, unknown, event, mega, CITO, Whereigo, lab and Earth cache. Although there is a webcam and virtual in Adelaide we did not take the chance to get 12 today. With a bit of spare time we went on a walk up this hill for three caches. Thanks.

After attempting a Powertrail yesterday it was great to do some caches today that fitted into our style more readily. We enjoyed the walk to this cache, and a couple further along the track, as well as chance meetings with other cachers, and some muggles!

This was the end of a long walk with jacaro44, FelixII and Jamin Appleford. I was in no state to stay the night, preferring my toasty cabin. Thanks for the cache.
We are over here from Western Australia to attend the SA 2014 Mega event and to try for a few smileys. Took a very nice walk this morning along the nearby trail collecting smileys all along the way. We appreciate the effort by the CO in placing this cache hide at this location.

Now back home after a big trip with J+J.au including our second OzMega. Trying to catch up on so many logs unfortunately means a far bit of cut and paste. I enjoyed the caches along the way. We had a great trip thanks to all of the cache owners for giving us reasons to go, see, experience fantastic locations and challenges. SL..TFTC
We got the bikes out for this one. Quickly located, we can hear the people in the jail having fun of their own. TFTC
3246. Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1450. We are here for OZ MEGA 2014 at Murray Bridge. had a little trouble finding the track into here. Sign and locked gate so went to the other side and proceeded to gz from there. SL Tnx The Barramundi's
This was our 1st cache find in a caching run of 9 Finds & 0 DNFs today.
We are in Murray Bridge to attend the "Oz Mega 2014 Murray Bridge" over Easter, and are doing some of the local, non power trail, caches before moving on to the site at the show grounds.
Today was a quick cache run with Phetlern, who arrived here today. There is no way we would be prepared to stay the night here.
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Smiley Badge.
Thanks The Barramundi's for the hunt today.

Mr Tardis was on a 10km wander through the reserve with CPwanderer, froghoppin and spidermonkey9 on a lovely Saturday afternoon.
This one took us ages to find with the fast growing sour sobs covering up much ground.
Just to let you know the structure it was hidden next to is about to be removed within the next few weeks by the railways people. So the cache was moved 3 metres west by the tree. Hopefully it will survive the work crew who are about to come through here.
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache The Barramundi's.

An easy find for Aussie Mark while brisal5 and muff1 made it a little harder. Cache was almost out in the open. We were nearby and decided to do this while doing some great caches nearby. TFTC.
Out with some of the usual list of suspects, Aussie M&M, 1/2 of Muff1,and CP. Taking on Rocky Gully reserve and part of the Lavender Federation Trail. What a day. 13 caches within the reserve and 1 just outside. Saw many roos, lizards, great views and even an echidna. Dropped of 8 travellers to entice some others to do the same.
Came in from the Rocky Gully Reserve end and took this 500 metre detour to get this and then 500 metre walk back. What prison [?]. Didn't even see it when doing it this way. I was busy resting in the shade whilst Mark was finding the cache. . Thanks The Barramundi's No traveller sighted.

Found new cache safe and sound (screw top container - thanks 'Are We There Yet'). Coordinates for the new hide are in vicinity of S 35.06.430 E 139.13.877 close to the fence, it's now about 14 metres from the old location. As we searched, we found remnants of the old cache scattered about (broken lid, etc.), so we removed them to avoid confusion.
Had some great weather, so we continued along the Lavender Federation Trail to find another 2 caches before returning home. Lovely walk. Saw a kangaroo, some blue wrens and a big choo choo. Thanks Barramundi's.

A bit of an adventure on this one.
The track to the cache is locked with a security sign on it.
So I took the track on the other side of the tracks and climbed up and over the tracks.
Quickly found the cache after reading the logs. (I have some co-ords which I'll send to you).
I thought I'd go back through through the little tunnel but there were wasp nests on the top, so I had climb back over the tracks.
All the time I was expecting a tap on the shoulder.

Easily found when we realised it had been moved. Geokid found a couple of toys on the ground from where muggles had gone through the old cache. TFTC.
It's always nice to have another Cacher help out and replace a cache that has perished or been muggled, as we too carry spares to replace remote caches. So a big thank you to Tim from Are we there yet! for returning the favour.

Thought I check out the cache despite previous logs. Found the lid but nothing else. Decided to replace the container, log, pen, and leave yo-yo keyring, golf ball and a geocoin. The replaced cache is about 5 metres from the original GZ. Thanks The Barramundi's
cache is gone contents are now under support for pole on other side of track, needs container and log
