Since the flood through the area, the bridge has been washed away. This is an area we frequent every year and plan to reinstate the cache. Since it will not be till October, we are archiving the cache.

The bridge was washed away with the heavy rainfall. Will attempt to place a hide nearby soon.

Lots of erosion. May be washed away.

Had a quick look around, but no success.

After a bit of searching around we realised after checking the associated photos that there was once a bridge here. Sadly it is no longer, we suspect with the large rains this area had in December that the bridge was washed away. The surrounding water level marks are well aboce where the bridge would have been. So we guess that this cache has made its way downstream somewhere and is unlikely to be seen again. Suggest archiving.

On a visit to SA with fitzy_1965 and Sol de Lune purely for caching (no relaxing allowed!!).
We left Adelaide at stupid o'clock to hopefully have a huge day
We finished the APM series and now we're onto a whole load of traditionals that lie before us.
Another nice quick find. TFTC!!

3112 - Continuing our run through the countryside during our SA run (92/96)...

A quick find at GZ - was this really used ?? - Thanks emeryco !!

Found with fitzy_1965 and ACBC66 on our weekend trip to South Australia..........

Quick find, log signed and we were off yet again.

Thanks for a cool cache and the quick find.

Found it after a short walk. Lovely bridge.
Thanks emeryco for the cache.

Well, no water in the creek today, and the farmer was heading out, so we had this to ourselves. Geo-Mum was walking around looking for it but had no luck, so after tagging her back in the car to look after the sleeping kids, I walked right up to it, so to speak. - TNL badge, SL - TFTC.

Coin visit. TFTC.

bitsmissan second try still cant find it

TFTC found with Blossom

A fabulous little spot, very picturesque and i had to take several photos.

We gave the bridge a good try out - especially with Mrs CF again (unsuccessfully) racing the littlest freak for the find. A great spot out in the countryside - would have been interesting after heavy rain. TFTC.

Found this cache at 3:45pm while driving around in our 1926 Dogde tourer while being on a Dodge Bros Vintage car rally for the week and also doing the "Bay to Birdwood"run on the Sunday.
It was lovely driving through the country side with everything so green and lush then to come across this delightful little swinging bridge, that had plenty of water flowing under it.

Thanks Emeryco for the hide.
The Bushies.

Lots of water passing under the bridge and over the road.dad pointed and the kids went and retreived the cache.tftc tnln sl.

We were staying at a B&B in Tanunda and as soon as we settled in, we went hunting. Geomum wasn't too keen on the bridge as it moved a fair bit as geodad crossed it gingerly. Very, very nice hide and good fun. TFTC.

found cache and swapped giraffe for a ball

Nice easy find, approriate name! [^] on the way down there were lots of young rabbits running along the side of the road.
L- a few marbles

GPS led me off the track by3mtrs to start with.
Then used my head and looked the only possible place it could be.
Waited for local farmer before retrieving and placing back.
TFTC

i went for a walk and sure did creak good hide

Fun hide, I didn't brave the creaking-sent little-Geo instead!!! Zeroed in on the cache quickly.

Monday was recovery day to get over the Scouts Rally SA and spend some time in the Barossa picking up some caches.

Quick find but wouldn't like to do it if there was water flowing. TFTC.

Just as I was going to start searching the property owner came home and gave me a puzzled look.

She was keeping an eye on me from the house so I left it for another day.

1 of 6 not to be found for my day in Nuriootpa.

Semi-impomptu caching while in the area with a friend. A relatively easy find in a nice rustic setting. Don't think the cache would be findable in real wet weather. No pen, so couldn't sign the log.
No swaps.
TFTC.

A rustic contraption at GZ well worth a cache, thanks emeryco.

A quick find with brycycle

Easy find. But crossing that bridge was a little scary!!..lol

TFTC

Cute little bridge. Wonder what the locals think of people pulling up there to go walking over and under that bridge.

TFTC

Jeanette and I went to the Barossa Valley for a day of caching.
Found this cache after searching the wrong side of the object.
Nice Quite area.

A nice day caching after dawn service, this was our 21st cache for the day.
Thanks for the cache.

A nice easy find with Demolineux. Took Red Rooster, left Badge. TFTC.

Took photos and showed incredible interest in the bridge as a couple of cars passed. The bridge definitely creaked as I crossed, but still seems sturdy. Found cache without drama. TNLNSL. Thankyou for organising the cache. Cheers!

Had a good time finding this Thanks for the cache

Sorry was a not found for me.
Greetings from Germany

Enjoyed the name to this one. We looked a bit suss to the car passing by, three grown men furtively standing by the creaking thing. Grabbed and logged after they went away.

Thanks emeryco.

Maybe it was just me, but I am sure I saw a sign up the hill that referred to the name of a vineyard with the initial CKG. Anyway, a delightful little valley with an ancient couple of logs performing bridge services - and yes, creaky covers it! A quick find, sign and away. New log book required soon though, thanks emeryco.

Sorry about that - wrong open tab.

2358. Now for the correct log. And we crossed the correct logs I guess. And yes, there is creaking. Under my weight probably a bit more than a little creaking. Luckily it did hold, although my compatriots wouldn't get on the bridge while I was.

I'll leave RexTrex to add his interpretation to the capitals.

The log is fairly full so may need to keep an eye on.

TFTC and the weighbridge.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Team SigShark,Janski and GoalieGuyJeff had time for a few caches before wondering off to do wine tastings

It had been raining hard and the creek was flooding the road creating deep fords throughout the Barossa.
However I could just drive through this one in the hire car after collecting this nice easy cache.
Thanks emeryco

Love old bridge - mr snapper found the cache before us. SL. Thanks emeryco for organiaing the cache and hunt.

A surprisingly robust structure, I didn't hear any creaking (apart from my knees) while I was crossing over. Our ancestors built things properly in days gone by. Thanks for bringing me to this location emeryco, this beats the .... out of hunting for an eclipse tin under a bush in a small suburban park.

cute spot, i loved the old structure. TFTC TNLN SL

Our 5th cache for the day with daughter. (She found it before me this time) Nice location, nice hide. Swapped A pixie pic for a 50c piece TFTC [^]

This cache took the little ones awhile to find while I was hobbling around with a sore foot. One of the little ones had looked twice in the right spot, he must have been in too much of a rush to find it and over looked it. One of the other little ones went back over areas already searched and found it. We were sure glad that there was no water coming down the creek, great spot for a cache though.

An easy drive by in the beautiful Barrossa. I can highly recommend the Two Hands winery just a few hundred meters away - Nice reds and a fantastic Muscat. Thanks to emeryco for leading us out here. TNLNSL. TFTC.

Found it easily albeit out in the middle of nowhere.
Glad there was no water there. Thanks

Our last find for the day

Took a little investigating, but overall it wasn't too difficult.

Young Grom liked leaving his mark in the muddy bank here and bouncing on the bridge. We saw its twin as we were continued driving around the area! TNLN, TFTC Cache #384.

Rocky Glen Grommets and crane2 enjoyed the opportunity for a photo shoot - great location - we enjoyed it and so did Bob Grom (photos to follow) Took a duck to put in our Duck Crossing over on the Yorke Peninsula and left a funny man.

A quick find with Polkys Quest. TFTC

Quick easy find! Found with Angel_Bubi. TFTC

Real modern bridge!!! Found at 4:00pm

Thought about the name, took about 2 secs to find the cache. TNLNSL. Cheers!

When GPS works you tend to find things quicker in this case we took a bit but found it in the end. TFTC

Since we were in the very close area for a wedding the day before, at Seppeltsfield, I thought that I should take the chance to grab this one.

With A still having the hair up (and done very nicely) from the day before, and full make up, I'm sure it would have been a shock for the guy that drove past us in a tin can sounding car!

We negotiated the pot holes on the road in, and left ourselves with only a short walk to GZ. A bounced around on the surprisingly solid bridge whilst I took care of the logging. A rather interesting spot for a bridge, that doesn't look like its see water underneath for many years

Out caching with Zak Power Team.

This one had us stumped for a bit as our old GPS needs retirement. and could only get a 20m fix on the location. Nice hide. Will see how the geocoin has travelled to this location TFTC TO SL TN Left a shoe lace

Quick to find. Took a couple of steps on the creaky bridge, but decided it wasn't worth risking a collapse! TNLN TFTC.

Nice easy drive by cache. No mugglers driving past. TNLN TFTC!

Daughter and I found this one. A bit of history in this area. TFTC

What a lovely place. Found this one on our Barrossa Valley geocache day . T indian, L Geocache Day TB. TFTC

Interesting bridge.... few muggles going past probably wondered why I was taking so many piccys.. but every thing was ok TFTC

Alot of traffic for a dirt road every time we went to grab or write in the cache a car seems to pass but we got it done in the end. TFTC

A quick drive by. Pity I had no time for any of the cellar doors though.

The bridge does creak and it is wise to watch your footing but there is sometimes a slip on the way to success.
Took fridge magnet
Left animal stickers
Thanks

Second find for the day with The Zephyr. Good hide. SLTNLN. TFTC.

I wonder if the people up the hill have noticed the interest in the creak at the creek. It’s like a high pitched frog with a creak instead of a croak or is it maybe trying to warn people of the waterway... ‘Creek! Creeeek! CREEEEEK!!. Don’t worry though, it’s only ‘needeep’! Ha, ha, ha
TFTC

A clever hide at a picturesque stop.

Gnadenfrei is a beautiful name. Pity it was changed [:(!].

Thanks for the cache.
