It appears this cache may have been caught up in a fire... As we are unable to get to the location to check this and it has been missing for nearly 12 months I have no option but to archive it...
Thank you to everyone who has found this cache and anyone who has helped along the way in maintaining it with log books etc..
Happy caching...

Thanks for the cache guys,unfortunately it was a dnf,looks like there may have been a fire through recently

I was on my way home now and travelling a different route to normal as I had come via Yorketown.

No cache to be found here. There has been a fire so most likely destroyed.

There has been a fire at this tree recently looks like a crispy cache on the floor not 100% certain though

Sadly a DNF, found a blue text but, that wasn’t it good luck to the next person

Day 4 of christmas on the yorke. TFTC

YP road trip day 5 cache 14. A quick roadside drive by. TFTC.

Today we travelled from Port Vincent to Stansbury and finished at Wool Bay using Geocaching as a guide and picking up a few caches on the way and this was one of them. An easy find at GZ. Took TB.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Found on a lovely sunny cool day. Thanks for bringing us here! Dropped a TB here.

Great visiting all these historical sites. Gives a insight to life of the early settlers. Tfth

There is a good log book in the cache and the needs maintenance log can be deleted.

This morning we started our day by attending a CITO - what a great way to give back to the local community and environment.

And after spending several nights in Edithburgh, Gary and I once again took our time to drive around the YP...we finally ended up in a lovely holiday home in Marion Bay (for 2 nights) so we could be super close to Innes National Park. A quick stop at an IGA on the way meant we could cook a good old Aussie bbq for dinner - YUM!!

Some of the cache hides today were easy, others were more challenging, but overall we enjoyed yet another wonderful day with fantastic weather.

Thanks for the cache Rocky Glen Grommets

------------------------------------------

Woo hoo, the lovely Micaparamedic and I decided we would attend the June Long Weekend Event in South Australia (Edithburgh) and make the most of a road trip to the glorious Yorke Peninsula by spending a week away - NICE! [^]

We particularly enjoyed exploring Innes National Park and focussing on the new earth caches on the YP and in Burra.

Sadly today I had to start my journey home after a massive June Long Weekend. Luckily I was only driving as far as Adelaide and then catching a flight back to Mount Gambier.
Found with brisal5 while trying to grab just a few more.
Thanks

Quick find after changing batteries in head lamp. Now I might be able to find the suckers!

Easy find raining now TFTC

Quick find.
Night caching with Tweety2 & Bubbles8 while in the area for JLWE Event at Edithburgh. TFTC!

Found at 1119. It was nice to see a bunch of trees blocking the view of the house across the road. Made for a quiet find. TFTC.

Visiting SA for a week before going to Red Centre Experience in Alice Springs. Out with joojoo57 and Snickersallan doing caches on Yorke Peninsula then back towards Adelaide. Thanks to all COs for your cache hides.

Before attending the Red Centre Experience event in Alice Springs we're spending 5 days in SA mainly around the Yorke Peninsular. Appreciated the variety of containers and places they were hidden - it certainly brought us to places we certainly wouldn't have stopped at. many thanks to all the COs for your time and effort in the placement of your caches.
After two days of geoart we are having a sightseeing and caching run around the middle section of Yorke Peninsular.

Out sightseeing around all the small towns in the area and decided to pick up a few caches along the way. Thanks CO for the good hide and TFTC

Easy find. Thanks Rocky Glen Grommets.

Easy find In a cool spot

.tftc. Easy find.

#11771. Day 12 of our SA holiday. As the forecast for the Yorke today was for rain, sun, showers, wind and all of the above several times over in whatever order you like to think up, we decided a caching day was in order as it wasn't going to be any good for kayaking or snorkelling or cycling. We started at Moonta and went as far as Edithburgh for Rob to do a maintenance check and then back up through Yorketown etc to home. Collected a nice little bounty of 36 smiles with a couple of DNF's thrown in for good measure.

Rob has already done this one years ago so out I hopped and over the road I went to search for some treasure. This one needs maintenance as one of the side clips is broken and the log has been damp. CO check up might be a good thing.

Thanks Rocky Glen Grommets

Quick find on our way to edithburgh .
Left some goodies for the geokids.

Yay! Found our first geocache! Pretty easy to find!

Lid of the container is broken. Everything is dry now but don't know if it will stay that way for long. Sorry we didn't have a spare container today

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Had finished working nearby and heading back home so time to gather a few caches on the way. Could not let this one pass by so stopped and had a look at the place opposite and then wandered to GZ and made a quick find, signed log and replaced. Interesting place and cache.
Gratias pro cache Rocky Glen Grommets

A quick and easy drive by as we cache our way around the area this week. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.

Found on day 2 of our Yorkes adventure . TFTC

Staying at Minlaton and headed out with The Drovers to cache the area to Yorketown, PT Vernon then return. We found a variety of caches along the way and this was one of them.

Once the log was signed all was returned as found.

TFTC Rocky Glen Grommets

Left Yorketown, and travelled to Minlaton via Port Vincent, picking up caches with Konie.
We travelled some great country roads, and the scenery was stunning.
Even though it was quite hot, we managed to do a few trail and other caches in the area.

Many thanks for placing this cache, Rocky Glen Grommets, for us and others to find.

Catching up on a few late logs (something not that unusual for me). As always, I enjoyed the journey to find the cache, mostly I have been in the company of Team Crackers, maccamob, alansee and the Coffee's, but occasionally I have gone out solo to soak in the solitude of being out in the fresh air.

Thanks Rocky Glen Grommets for placing this cache.

Traveling with micaparamedic to meet up with The Drovers and Konie on the York Peninsula we were grabbing some random caches.
We are still not sure what king of stock we were looking for as all the paddocks were empty today.
But on the up side we had a nice easy find and sign.

Many thanks Rocky Glen Grommets for the cache and to Dazzaton and Margieh for keeping it going.

found on a family trip to Stansbury, showing the father in law how to do it!

Had been to Stansbury for the markets with LLL51 and we cached our way back to Moonta. An easy find here.
Thanks for the cache Rocky Glen Grommets.

Easy find on our way back up to Moonta after visiting the market. THanks

Easy find!

Last one for the night. Grabbed this one in the in the dark. Quickly found. TFTC

Already day 4 of the big caching trip[ for this year. Goal is a lot of power trails today, but certainly not forget the caches on the way there from Stanbury and back. Perfect caching weather today, not to hot, not to dusty and a nice breeze to cool off once in a while!

Quick easy find TFTC

Easy

A nice and easy find on the way to Edithburgh.

A first ever visit to the Yorke Peninsula for me, so many caches and so little time! I visited whatever caches I could fit in while aiming to make it to Yorketown before dark. Loved the drive and the magnificent countryside.

Many thanks to all the SA cachers for the placements, and in helping make for a very enjoyable day.

Well hidden in plain view

Tricked us for a while there until dad eventually found it. Tftc

The GG's must have been dozing today. I am sure that we know somebody who once lived in that house. TFTC.

GPS was a bit out on this one

TFTC

Heading back to Adelaide after a weekend visit to Innes National Park. Decided to stop for a couple (or more) caches on the way back.

GPS had us a little bit off GZ, but the cache was in a fairly obvious location, so was a relatively easy find. No animals here for us today though.

TFTC.

Found with Caitlin and Alyssa while on holidays.

Phew! no sight of the neighbours across the road. Found it easily.

Thanks Rocky Glen Grommets for the cache

Yay

KarpyKarpyson and I embarked on a birthday bash through Stansbury, Edithburgh and Yorketown. 53 caches in total. Easy find, TFTC. Now, onwards south to Coobowie!

with Limbage ... thanks for the hide.

A quick find but Farmer G.Upp didn't have the animals in his front paddock that we were expecting.
Alpacas!!!!!
Thanks.

After a very successful day yesterday on the Fish Trail, we decided that today we would drive a loop from Warooka to Minlaton, Port Vincent, Edithburgh, Yorketown and back to Warooka to see what the area has to offer, to look for some caches we didn't have on our initial lists and to plan a return to cache the area more extensively. This was one of the extra caches we tackled on our tour. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks for the cache Rocky Glen Grommets.

A quick find for a cache in full view of the homestead across the road. The occupants were the last finders of the cache, but they left it there after logging it. (It might have been the kids we saw playing on the trampoline.)

Touring Australia having left Perth in late February we are leisurely touring South Australia after having attended Oz Mega.

Today we had to move house (caravan) from Coobowie to Minlanton so only attempted some multi's near Coobowie before we headed off.


this was a roadside grab with the van on tow.

We have returned from Canada to discover a few more Australian caches! What a great way to explore the "land down under."

The farmer across the road must wonder why so many vehicles stop here...
Found the cache quickly. All is in good shape.

Thanks for the fun Rocky Glen Grommets!
