With the string of Dnf's building can the new CO check on this decade old cache for some over due mtce, such a lovely spot
Thanks

first cache of the day and a dnf with 4 sets of eyes. no finds in over a year and if we looking in the right spot, it's been washed away.
sad face.......out with the crew, first one of the day and we couldn't find it......
Found the bridge, found the required info (after some confusion with the "water' sign reference), searched the structure, but no cache found. The floods since the last find washed debris higher than the horizontal part of the structure, perhaps it went swimming? It's been almost 12 months since the last find, time for a CO check?
Having been looking at this one for a while and finally got round to attempting it. After collecting the required info it was a short search at gz. A nice quick find.

Found after a bit of hunting high and low. Saw some footprints in the mud and then found it!
Now the hint makes sense. TFTC

Well the bridge is still here but the cache seems to have disappeared. Lots of recent work done in car park. Wondering if disturbed?
Found easily thanks to the hint. We often drive along this road and wonder about the history of the bridge. TFTC
Lucked out with the coordinates, i was unsure which was the water sign. The missus found some corners nearby and using some other clues she stumbled across it. Tftc.
Slippery find today ! Definitely needed the rubber boots. No kids lost though. Beautiful spot close to home! TFTC
Found it! Took us a while to find. In the right spot but just couldn't see it. Great spot for a walk. TFTC!!
I confused this multi with the Coro History multi and was looking for a regular cache.
Once I realised my error the cache was quickly in hand.
I do enjoy multi caches and this one gets a favourite as I love the bridges - the road bridge and the pedestrian bringe.

This one had me a bit confused, had the first part completed but the 'water' sign had me scratching my head. Found a sign that had water in it, but not sure if its the right one.
Had a look for WP2, but not sure if I had the clues right due to the water sign.
Decided to come back after the trail walk.
Discovered that the trail name kinda matches the clue, but this made it more confusing
WP2 wasn't a first star walk, so it seems I lucked out on this one.
Great spot, very popular with walkers, Cheers Klem's mob maybe next time the stars will align

After finishing the new caches along the walking trail grabbed this one before heading home. TFTC.
Doh! First calculations were wrong and the Maths was so simple! There were so many hidey holes and I just couldn't find the cache then saw a previous log mentioned looking from both sides. Did that and I had it. Left a coin. TFTF.
Whoops, add to south decimals, not subtract. That makes more sense. TFTC Klem's Mob.
Easier to see than grab. Hunted up & down before I spotted it.
No fish today.
Cito - took a couple of pieces of rubbish as it was a bit dirty all around.

This is the closest cache to my home and my fifth and most difficult find. I had a hunch generally where the micro cache might be hidden which turned out to be correct once I'd done the maths. My daughter homed in on the specific location straight away.
Used to drive over this bridge quite frequently when I lived in the area. No bees around today despite the mildness of the day. TFTC.
Knew my undergraduate uni maths would come in handy one day. Add, subtracted then generated the first derivative and headed to GZ. Looked on one side, saw nothing. Looked on the other side and saw the cache back where i was. A long reach and cache was in hand. TFTC Klem's Mob.
Took me a while to find this one as I messed the coordinates up the first time.
Great hide. Geohubby found the cache, tricky one

Beautiful day. Introducing my family to Geocaching.
**BEE ALERT**
- there is a hive in a hollow log nearby. Interesting if you like bees.

Another good short little multi not too far from home. Amazing old bridge, that I had never been across! TFTC

Nice multi - kinda looked at this before work was started, cache was exposed, fortunately it was all intact. Replaced cache where I thought it should be. Thanks Klem's Mob for the cache and hunt.
Out for a run with Trail06.
Had the solution for a while but haven't been in the area since it's been reactivated.
I found it almost immediately while Trail06 was searching elsewhere. You gotta be lucky sometimes.

This cache is now back in action as the works around the area has finally been completed.
This cache is still out of action due to the area being used as a temporary depot for machinery which is being used on the nearby earthworks.
We have had to temporarily disable this cache due to further works taking place in the area.
Found at 15:40 with Winterdragon.
I had worked out the final coordinates to this one on a previous visit, and found that although the start is fenced off, you can still get to GZ. Found it very easily this time. I can't believe it was there last time.

Yep, cache is still accessible by walking around the fencing. Uni had his hands on it before I'd even started looking. Oh well, still happy to claim a smiley! Interesting spot.
Thanks Klem's Mob!
Thanks Klem's Mob!
As I drive past this virtually every day, noticed that the area around WP1 is fenced off. May need to go offline for a while.
You always secretly hope you can't find it because it's gone, rather than you being blind. Wrong again.
Didn't find the cache, but found lots of lizards sunning themselves on the rocks.
[Found this one with MCSirCH + my family - on our first big day of geocaching.
Was a hard find, but enjoyed ourselves. ]
The ducks were very friendly.

We found our 3rd Klems Mob cache at 8:30am as the 3rd of 23 on our Southern Adelaide Ramble with Cold Freeze and Bazzars. An easy find for the other two guys as I pulled the car onto the safer side of the road. All I had to do was walk over and sign the log. Thanks for the cache from D B-A.
This had indeed gone on a long trip somewhere. We have replaced it so it is now ready to rock and roll.
Still wet from the deluge we had copped from doing an earlier cache we collect the necessary info to get to gz on this one. Unfortunately though, even heeding the clue carefully we couldn't find the cache. We spent some of our time watching the muddy, swirling waters coming down the creek after the recent rain. Thanks Klems' Mob
We will be checking this out and replacing if necessary in the very near future. Thanks for notifying us.
Searched and searched but could not find - checked our sums but still no luck
Did manage to spot SAParothead stamp on bridge so were quite sure we were in the right place

Inteesting bridge that we have passed over many many times without a reason to stop. Now we had one. Found easily after working out the final co-ords.
Thanks for giving us a reason to stop.

Found the cache, Accompanied with Lava12. Very interest about history. Lava12 - Herself workout the multi.... Well done Lava12!!! Also she found it before me We enjoyed for the day. SL. Thanks Klems' Mob for organising the cache and hunt.
Worth to visit!!!

I was with Everlasting but she left me to work out the multi. I enjoyed it. The bridge is amazing. thanks
Bikes were in the boot as it was getting dark - time to go looking at Xmas lights in Blackwood Park. An easy find once we worked out the maths.
13th of nineteen for the day. Relatively easy find with the help of previous logs.
A great hide! The first time I tried this one I figured out the clues but just couldn't locate the cache. When I found it this time and realised how small it was (yes, I know it's listed as a 'micro'...), no wonder! When you see the size of the cache and the location that it's in, you realise there's a myriad of places this one could have been placed. But just where it is is great! TFTC.
This bridge has a special meaning to anyone that was in the Flagstaff Rover Crew in its inaugural years.
The catch phrase of ‘I was going to place a cache here’ came to mind when this cache was listed, but first in first served.
Did the number crunching while keeping one eye on little MAC playing with the speeding cars on the road.
Found the cache in the second place I looked.

This was an interesting find that had Zytheran hanging from a bridge by one hand whilst trying to shine a torch with another and avoid falling into a creek with water in it (!). In the end a surprisingly small cache....to put it politely..
First stop for the day. Havent been down this road before, so was good to see a new area, despite living down south all my life.
Im sure it doesnt look at all strange to people driving past someone standing there with a laptop in their hands, counting the letters on the sign.
A couple of the previous logs helped out when at GZ, and a quick find was made.
Not sure that GZ or the area in general is wheelchair safe though

Nineteenth of 128 finds on "The Big Adelaide Assault" in company with acts2youthgroup and HawMorFords. We didn't include too many multicaches on the assault, but this one was close to other caches, and it looked like it was a simple offset cache. And so it was. We determined where GZ was, and made a quick find at 0231. I made no exchange. Really liked the old bridge at WP1. The contrast at GZ was stark, even at this time of night. Thanks to Klems' Mob for the cache. Cheers, dak.

Nice and easy, once you count the letters properly! Concluded pretty quickly when GZ was apparently in a very tricky area upstream, and definitely not wheelchair accessible. So that's what those little notes are for! TFTC

8th find of 20 before 11:30am today. Did the maths and headed over to the cache. A nice little spot - plenty of hiding spots for a larger cache we reckon! TNLNSL.
