Cache Logs

November 11 by feathertop (5949 found) I was on my way back to Whyalla to catch my plane so I only had time for a couple of caches. This one caught my fancy as I wanted to investigate the rudder and I like projection caches too. Stinking hot too so I went out and got the info first and back in the car made it all work. Back out again in the fierce heat but not for long as the cache was right where I wanted it to be. Thanks Bunya [view this log]

October 18 by diggers09 (87 found) With a south wind, we was able to navigate past rocks, got the right bearings, without muggles, landed ashore, and located the cache, TFTHSL L-Pirate toy Coin, Glow in dark Lizard, and T-Toy Car. (although the cache is slightly damage missing a Lug from lid when found). Well done Bunya liked this one. [view this log]
