Geocaching Australia

As the owner of said event up near Cameron's Corner I would like to add that 'event stacking' is a regular thing here in SA. Just have a look at the up coming June long weekend event. 3 event smileys for one weekend in the same location. The recent Anzac Day event in the Gawler Ranges. 3 event smile...

Apologies to those who may be offended by a little bit of language but the missus and I both found this funny. How many out there have good memories of the presenter from their childhood?? I suppose we have all grown up from those days... DISCLAIMER: We do not actually read such material to our daug...

If I posted a picture it would show a leartherman multitool as a common element of my pocket paraphenalia. So technically I carry a knife around too. It also comes in handy for a few caches every now and then. And then sometimes my work knife ends up in my pocket and I may have been at a bar and emp...

GPS equipped PLB for me. I wayed up the options and the PLB came out on top. SPOT2 -Purchase price $235AUD -Yearly subscription to make it usable is $115USD on a basic plan, add an extra $50USD for the tracking feature -While I can see some benefits of the tracking function, I always let people know...

Try the Heysen Trail in SA.
Lots of caches along its route, but it may take more than one 'overnight' to complete it.

As a frequent visitor to Happy Chappies other visited forum as well (aulro.com.au) it is a good idea that goes over well on that site. Someone posts something interesting and then someone else shows their appreciation by thanking the writer for their contribution to the site. I see a thanks function...

This cache was actually my very first ever found cache. Upon reflection it's not in a spot very worthy of a cache, and I believe the only reason it was put there was due to the Scout/Guide hall just across the road. The interest must have just been a fleeting thing and no scouts/guides or leaders ha...

Not sure if you are still needing help on this or not but good co-ords for the Pamamaroo Camp site near Menindee Lakes are S 32° 18.263 E 142° 29.901.
And I have a picture of the commemorative plaque that is there too if that would help.

This link seems to be better for the canadian policy.

I use a TomTome Go720 for in car use and have it set up to display cache locations. Simple process, as GSAK makes it all really easy. I did have proximity warnings set up but disabled it as it was a pain in the proverbial. On the TomTom I simply go :Navigate to, POI near location, Geocache, and then...

Hmmm,
I worked all day on Monday (37), Tuesday (38.9) but today I knocked off early as it was bloody hot.

Not hot enough to not pick up a few caches on the way home though....

Oh goody, just what soldiers around the world want.
The ability to carry even more crap on their backs

My April roadtrips with Team Swampy from Tasmania has been one of my most positive caching experiences.
But otherewise just getting out and about enjoying the outdoors.

Coolest place to be for you guys might be at an ice skating rink

Coolest place is the walk in fridge at the nearest bottle shop

I though t I had knocked off for the day and could sit back and enjoy the A/C but then I get an emergency call to go and climb on someones tin roof to fix a leak from their evap A/C. Not quite a cat on a hot tin roof but close. And then I get home to find a heat distressed possum on the driveway clo...
