No finds for months, no response to maintenance - this one needs some admin attention.
With a line of DNFs and no finds in recent times, this one may need a check by the CO.
Just need to return. Like others, felt a bit awkward with people in changing room and all around.
Well after a 3rd visit and digging through every possible place - I have no idea where this cache is or even if it is there!!!
We came to Adelaide on just an overnight trip in order for Tassie expat to find her 1000th cache. Couldn't find this one but was very careful of nearby muggles.
Hmm.. Stumped again by Waterlogged. When I started caching all those years ago, the first one I went for was Pump It Up. Took me weeks due to no experience, no GPS and not really having any idea what I was doing. Today, I looked around and in things - but there was a muggle eyeing suspiciously at me loitering around the change rooms. Hopefully I will get back before I return to Tassie. Thanks for the hunt!
Wow that's the cleverest hide I have found in a long time
Well done & TFTC. A favourite point from me.

Found it a lot easier than we were expecting, I was too short but my parter noticed it almost instantly! Well hidden!
Don't come down South much ... so was in the area today ... and had a few hours to go caching!
What an enjoyable time and great weather to do so!
Will have to log a DNF for this one ... had a brief look, but felt very suspicious looking around the back of the footy club rooms. Decided to log a DNF before the boys in blue came and asked what I was doing loitering around....

After getting the idea to wear a hi vis vest from a log on a cache we found recently I went in feeling not so obviously out of place. I did the whole bit and had a clip board and pen, that way no one would come near me in case I was doing a survey or something. Haha. Not a big fan of skulking around some of the urban hides, but this one was pretty close to work so this was on my list to do on a way home, got the little devil .
Struggled more to put the log in neatly but all done.
Nice hide thanks Waterlogged for the history and the hunt.

Found It!
There was a guy doing laps of the oval with a forklift but he didn't notice me looking around at the back of the club rooms. Neat hide to!

I found this a while ago but had not logged it. I found it with vj187. We had looked for this on previous occasions and were about to give up when we found it. A sneaky hide. TFTC
Found with 2011*turtle. We had looked for this before but after reading recent logs we were more confident that we would have success. It took some time but eventually located the cache. The log is jammed into the container and we needed a tool to remove it for signing. A very impressive hiding spot. TFTC
At footy and found during brothers AFL game took three visits and finally got it.
Very clever must of taken a fair but of time to create this one.
Very clever.

Exactly where the coordiates put it. Very nicely positioned. Thanks for the fun.
BTW the log book is jammed in the container and won't come out so needs some attention.

No luck for us and not exactly the best place to be looking, right behind the women's toilets.
Sad to say DNF with 3LG this evening.
Searched high and low and in evey hole we could see.
Hope it hasn't gone missing.
Will be back.

I looked high, low, in and out and could not put gauntlet to cache today. Can someone check on this as this is now the 3rd DNF entry.
Second attempt at this one and still no luck. Will try again one day...am determined to get it!
Was on a time limit so couldn't spend too long hunting for this. I'm also a bit of an arachnophobe so didn't want to put my hand in all those wonderful possible hides holes. Would love a hint if possible!!
I felt quite exposed looking for this one but I'm glad I persisted. I didn't see it but felt it when I went back to that area for the second or third time. Love the way the cache is made so if I can work out how, I'll give it a favourite. TFTF
With kizarae and xapphire13 and help from alkard22! Great little spot! TFTC!
persistence pays... all good. tnlnsl. tftc

Last time I was here I broke my hand in a game of Aussie rules. Got the cache today . Good hide tftc.
Just started looking for sites. This one has too many spider webs and there were no clues to what I was looking for.
Muggle partner had to start work early at Warradale and so I took the opportunity to get some caches down south, then met up with firesafe and we did a few together
All up, by the end of the day, 31 caches were stopped at and we managed to locus cache on 28 with 3 DNFs
But I looked there... sort of!
firesafe made the find for me today as he is just that bit taller and didn't mind the face height spiderwebs as much as I did, obviously!
Clever hide!

Wow this cache is creepy. And difficult. So many little places to hide a micro cache in. And not liking the wall its located near
Searched for 20 minutes. I'm a tall person and I still didn't find it will be back though!!!
I Diddnt feel too comfortable skulking about behind the girls locker rooms as they were in there :/
Wow from the previous logs I expected that to be a little harder. Still a very clever hide.
Ok .... It took 5 good hard look times and 3 aborts ... But yeah baby! Got him..... Good hide! Sunshine! .Well worth the effort !
No-one around today thank goodness - I can see it would be hard at times to search for this one.
Before arriving I had read the logs so knew that I needed to be looking for something clever and out of the ordinary. This cache certainly didn't disappoint, a really clever container which fits in just right. A favourite point from Mr Tardis.
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Waterlogged.

Why do all the muggles like to protect local football clubs, churches, Community Halls, etc. I can never find caches in those areas at night time. I got chased away by a muggle after having a good look. DNF
Our third (or possibly forth) attempt at this one. What a beaut cache! Very satisfying to eventually find it!! Finally got the right idea. TFTC Waterlogged.
I stood there and looked at all of that plumbing that is now covered.
Knowing why and looking over my shoulder to see if flashing blue lights were coming, I chickened out and shot through.
Maybe another day.

Looked in all the places I could think of, but no luck with this one today.
Oh Well, next time.

So pleased no one was around today as it took us a bit of hunting. With a little help from hubby we got there in the end. SL TFTC
A very good find on a very hot day. Back in NZ it would be lucky to be 18 degrees today where here it was 32 degrees. Great weather but does take it out of a poor old fellow! TFTC
Found by D
I surprised myself, picked it up straight away, only problem was where to sign, the log is a little....dis-organised!

Found during an afternoon caching with sneekypeak & geodog. Great cache, had us searching for a little while until sneekypeak spotted it.
Thanks Waterlogged for this great hidey hole.

This one had Snoopy-Lou and i hitting our heads against a brick wall... then i found got fiddly and finally found the cache. clever...very clever Waterlogged. Cheers for the Cache. geodog liked the area to this cache too ;p)
Found after a long look. Really well hidden. Extra height a real help. Tftc. One of my faves.
Found with angrygod

Second time for us on this one as well. The first time we were here we had a quick look but then it started to get busy around here and we abandoned the search. No problems on the public holiday though. Mrs TiedyeSmileys mirror made this find much easier.

Easy find on a caching blitz out with some frogs, a honey sucker and CP wanderer!
at last noone around and a find was made on a day out with Froghoppin,scoobsters and cpwander
After being here earlier in the day with Honeysucker, Team Scoobster and CP Wanderer we could not even get close with the match that was in progress, returned later in the day only to have a muggle opposite kicking a footy with his son, round the corner for some cache mtce and one last try, muggle free, with 4 searching teams it was all smiles to mark this one off when Mr scoobster came up with the well hdden cache TFTC Waterlogged
Our coords were pointing inside the building, however we knew this was not the case. after a search we came up with nothing, maybe height was the key? Mrs Fluffy quite liked riding on Mr Fluffy's shoulders! Even coming up with a cache for her efforts.. We are not saying you need to be tall to find this one, but height seemed to help.

Found after quite a few minutes searching. A number of spots to check, but found it! TFTC
second try at this one (spent about 45 mins last time).... and spent about half an hour this time. Eventually found it, and was kicking myself.. how did I miss that
One minor nemesis off the list! Last time I didn't have my GPS, nor did I have my trusty mirror. Both helped today!
TFTC, waterlogged!

Couldn't find it, looked up and down the wall in the dark for a while. Think we knew where it was in hindsight but wasn't willing to put the hand through cobwebs etc at the time!! I'll have to toughen up next time
What do you do when you can't sleep at 5 am. Cache of course! Had tried this one a long while ago with no luck but this morning with no one around I had a chance to take a good look and success.
Stopped, looked and made a logical assault on this one. Didn't want to hang aournd the women's changeroom windows too long. Muffin had the right idea but Tiger had the height and we were signing the log moments later. Nice hide and TFTC Waterlogged. SL.
I think we are getting more familiar with the various hiding techniques possible at any given location. Spiderswebs were offputting but not a complete deterrent. Very clever. TFTC
Very clever hide. Looked around for ages before I finally found it. TFTC Waterlogged.
Saw this one was recommended so we thought we'd check it out.
Read the logs and geomum had a hunch. Didn't take too long before we had this one.

Have seen one slightly similar to this one before so after reading the logs, quickly ascertained what to look for!
Found in the company of Chillibutts and Family on a Gnome hunting party at night!

I liked this cache. Nice little hide and might give me some ideas for adaptations of this for the future. I was just starting to run out of steam with MtnLioness and I struck gold. TFTC
Well I didn't know that! I came to Aus in 1985, and spent most of my years north of the city so anything happening south mainly escaped my awareness.
So South used to play here, huh? Well, well.
Clever hide indeed. Wasn't sure I'd not require some first aid after.
Bit of stealth required as ppl across road.

Had to abort the attempt mid-way on this one as GeoWife came down with a migraine and needed to go home. We will be back though to complete the search on this one.
Fantastic! A great challenge.
This was my third attempt at skulking up and down this wall. I had approached the cache from the wrong angle the last two times and was lazily and dejectedly checking all the same spots again when I got a sudden surprise! Just goes to show how your thinking can get into a rut.
Another one off the DNF list!
Thanks Waterlogged!
