+trevorh7000 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I think it is "Mining Main Street" GC10B07 Very close ! I'll cover my google earth bases and say Either Gold Rhino or Stampede! For adjudication purposes I go with Gold Rhino as my first choice! Trev Quote Link to comment
+Wazat Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 Was also looking at those too.... but that means I was Googling it.... so I opted not to. But Stampede is a bit closer... LoL Quote Link to comment
+Wormgeocash Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) Gold Rino it is Trev ! Edited July 28, 2010 by Wormgeocash Quote Link to comment

+cownchicken Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 (edited) I know where it is! But as we don't have any worthwhile caching photos, I'll give it a miss. A place very close to Trev's heart! Edited July 29, 2010 by cownchicken Quote Link to comment
+Henzz Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Can't remember the name of the park, but the cache is called "Tribute to friends and family".. Quote Link to comment
+tomtwogates Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Can't remember the name of the park, but the cache is called "Tribute to friends and family".. Yes of course where CapeDoc's manic NABM ended! Quote Link to comment
+trevorh7000 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Can't remember the name of the park, but the cache is called "Tribute to friends and family".. Quite right - a very nice little two part multi - for those that have not done it I can recommend it. Set in a loverly landscaped river bank area. The Liesbeek is one of the cleanest if not THE cleanest urban Rivers in South Africa, That section of the river is pretty pristine. Go for it Henz Trev Quote Link to comment
+Henzz Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 O.K. here goes... This should be fairly easy, but then again not too many cachers has been there yet... Definitely a "must do" when you are in the area.. Quote Link to comment
+tomtwogates Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 As you say Henzz - not done that one, but recognise the area Janap's Takeaway on the False Bay coast Quote Link to comment

+the pooks Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I'm guessing the mountains in the background are Paardeberg, or (more likely) Porterville, but I can't find a cache with that view, so not much help I'm afraid. Very nice photo though! Quote Link to comment

+malo mystery Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 A whole lot closer to town than that. Quote Link to comment
+Discombob Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Malo is right, pretty close to being in Cape Town Quote Link to comment
+BruceTP Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) Ostriches getting laid (GC1KNFA) When I saw the pylons in the photograph I suspected it would be near Koeberg. The scene is typical of driving through the Swartland up the N7 with the mountains in the distance on the right. I did some hunting for possible caches in the area with the aid of Google maps saw a similar looking area. Then when I went into the listing - There was DB's photo! Street view Isn't Google wonderful! Edited August 6, 2010 by BruceTP Quote Link to comment
+Discombob Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 well done Bruce, your go Yeah its a silly system, as I get forced to upload a photo to the cache page so I can publish it here, and then everyone can see it Quote Link to comment
+BruceTP Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Great... Thanks DB. I found this one very interesting - why? Quote Link to comment
+Wazat Posted August 7, 2010 Author Share Posted August 7, 2010 Great... Thanks DB. I found this one very interesting - why? Cause it looks to be in Winter time yet Father Christmas was just off to the left? Quote Link to comment
+BruceTP Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Cause it looks to be in Winter time yet Father Christmas was just off to the left? No, he is no Father Christmas despite coming from the land of sleigh rides and reindeer, but he did provide the wheels for the day. Quote Link to comment
+RedGlobe Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Great... Thanks DB. I found this one very interesting - why? This is the site where the first cache was placed and now Jors have a cache close by? Quote Link to comment
+BruceTP Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Indeed this is GCZA01.2, where it all began in South Africa 10 years ago. What a site and sight! Over to you RedGlobe. What gems do you have in store for us... ? Quote Link to comment
+Discombob Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Great... Thanks DB. I found this one very interesting - why? Cause it looks to be in Winter time yet Father Christmas was just off to the left? Darn you Wazat, that was my exact answer too Quote Link to comment
+RedGlobe Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 (edited) We did that cache just last month and the reason for the memory still good…. Thanks Bruce. Now let’s see if the cachers read the listings and look at the site where the cache owner wants you to go? Which cache is hidden at this site? Edited August 7, 2010 by RedGlobe Quote Link to comment
