Description

This cache was part of caughtatwork's first movable cache race held in 2009/2010. It didn't win but it did rack up a decent amount of kilometres. Now it's time to see how long it will last in the wild.

The name of this cache has nothing to do with where it has to be hidden just hide it where ever you like. But please put a detailed description in the hint to make it easy to find and move on.

Thanks Kat

The cache is now quite close to the river in Loxton. You can drive reasonably close on the dry weather road (river flats).

I decided to go on a rescue mission as my Australia Day Good Deed because this cache has been sitting over there for too long! This wild place has in the past been my own personal Bermuda Triangle of swinging GPSr arrows and changing metres of accuracy, but no such dramas today. A quick find amongst the koalas of Paringa Paddock.

Found it at the Geocaching Table at the Mega Scouting Event AJ2010 (I think 20000+ is a Mega event).

It will find its way back in SA - maybe in the Riverland in a week.

Dropped this off at the mega scout jamboree event. It was latter picked up, this having been pre-arranged.

Thanks for the fun psychokat, it added a bit of extra purpose to our day, and hopefully scored a few more km. I would have liked to catch up with you at Windang, but it looks like we won't unfortunately.

Our geodaughter took a liking to the paint set, so we swapped it for another couple of items.

Cheers C&C.

Had another go this morning on the way North, and had more luck this time. I can bring it North to the Scout Jamboree, so someone else can take it further North, or alternatively back South again.

Thanks psychokat.

Dropped cache off in bryant reserve in Ivanhoe on my way home from the 20/20 cricket at the G
I park here every school day and walk through the park to get my regular coffee hit from cafe Ivanhoe
the co-ords should be ok and it's an easy find

Found by PR&F on 31/12/09 @ approx. 1.30pm.
We were in Colbinabbin when I saw that this cache had been moved to less than a km from my home! Luckily we were coming home today and I hoped it would still be there when I stopped by.
I wasn't expecting it to still be there and I was surprised when geohusband made the find (yes he found this one!)
Thanks, will move on ASAP. It's great to finally have a moveable so close to home! Great location too, I love the homestead here :)

After swapping and going near by getting a new gas bottle for the van we stopped off to pickup the mover nearby - Snr needed a hand as we stopped to adjust our load.

Our thanks to psychokat for your entrant, McPhan for the last move and to the ladies that stopped to assist with our "car trouble".

Now onto the next cache - oh there is a traditional here too - cool

Bigger clue. In diddams close go to L) and park). walk along bike path and through gate. Cache is between bike path and Ginninderra Dr at base of a multi trunked tree. It's only about 10M from the bike path.

Maybe pollywogs could double check their coordinates after so many DNFs? Spent 20mins searching but had to give up to get back to work :( Maybe next time.

Second of three DNFs for the day.
No sign of the cache despite the efforts of three teams (total of 8 searchers)
We could have made an event of it.

Lots of fun but more fun if we found it.

Well with a bit of luck that should put you well up the ladder for distance (until the international flyers kick in).

I had fun finding the cache as I am once again reduced to paper caching.
I have found a spot similar to your original hide.
