Aiming to stay the night in Port Pirie. Enjoying the caches.

Caching from Perth to Canberra via the Nullarbor. TFTC. Nice quick road cross in the traffic void.

Nice fast easy one while heading north to work. Dropped Cedric the fish off while visiting

Got it

A short stop off the highway to stretch the legs, cache is all good here.

With a few days off work I decided to head north for a night to the Flinders Ranges, and attempt to find SAs longest unfound traditional cache and Mount Abrupt plus what ever I had time for in the area. A beautiful part of the world up here.

Thanks for the cache

Easy find TFTC

Another cache hunt on our 2022 South Australian Adventure which is all but over as we begin the long trek home. Thanks for your cache nubes_Clan.

Let’s go

Found on fathers day 4/9/22

Hello

Our SA visit is winding down as today we begin the long trek west. Thanks for the hide

I found this cache without much difficulty. But after an earlier engagement with a guardian, I was not impressed finding guardian blankets across the cache area . Log and cache both in fair condition and the log was dutifully signed and now I am getting my smile !! yey me

the history of this are is amazing so thank you for bringing me here and for taking me to this cache TYFCT SL TNLN

Thanks

Need ling arms for that one, tftc

Magnificent old fence post!!

Enroute north and Day 7 in SA after numerous trips were sabotaged due to you know what and its the first day it has not been more than a chilly brisk! The Innes National Park Ikera-Flinders NP and it’s caches was high on the list along with several other random caches so hoping to tick all boxes before heading back to home base. . I’ve learnt theRE are plenty of quality SA caches - plenty to pique the curiosity and anticipation of another surprise or fun cache. Happy and relieved to record no DNF’s today and on average most were located ‘relatively’ quickly. TFTC AND THE FUN and the effort to contribute to this fave game

Thanks for the cache

What an epic journey we have had, just returned home from the holiday of a life time, we managed to catch up with PP2 for some caching at times, oh the memories and laughter!! Now it's time to catch up with the logging, thank you to every CO who has placed caches for us to find along the way TFTC

Our last day on the Yorke Peninsula as we head to Port Augusta and the beginning of the long trek West. TFTC Newbs_Clan

On the ninth day of Christmas... went caching with Froghoppin.
Just one Frog, 'cos 9 frogs a leapin' wouldn't fit in the car

Off we went to the north today, and found a few things, great views, adventurous tracks, wild animals, and of course... your cache!

What has a Japanese chinese chef got to do with a country creek?
Who knows... but we found a cache and that's all that matters

Next to the post. Presumably because the inside of the post has become the local trash can [:(!]

Our thanks to Honey Badger Gang for placing this cache on the SA geomap

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Hunting around every day finding and signing using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Whereyougo, Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S20+, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just plain old dumb luck Quite a lot of that actually!!!
*Logs are composed and published using GSAK of course.*

Please do stay as safe as possible when caching.
Keep a lookout for bogs, snakes, surprise cliffs, boxing roos, wombats, bulldust, and floods,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- but especially lookout for bugs from alpha to omega !!! . [xx(]

Try to keep Travel Bugs as the only bugs you share and pass on
Now our borders are open - even more important to sanitise and safely distance!!!


Much appreciation of all those placing quality caches out and about around the countryside,
in sensible safe places especially! - it keeps our game safe, fun, and interesting

Here we go caching in Twenty Twenty Too

Drove past it but didn't stop

Nice!!!

Needed to get away from some of the traffic, so we stopped for a cache, pulled out to a clear road! TFTC.

Found it!

TFTC

Great spot

Yay! Thanks

Mr Tardis was heading past and stopped here for a quick rest stop and a cache.

I found the cache in the first place I looked - don't you just love it when that happens?

I used to regularly watch Iron Chef many years ago.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Newbs Clan.

PS: Sorry for logging 9 months late - I'm slowly getting through my backlog of caches to log.

Away for a week on some R 'n' R from the shop and to recover from an exhausting 10th Birthday celebration for Geostuff. On the way to our campsite we grabbed some caches on the way, A quick find here. TFTC

It is a good post.

Nachdem wir am Chinaman Creek eine wirklich windige Nacht verbracht haben, durfte auf dem Rückweg ein Besuch bei dem Cache nicht fehlen.

Danke sagen HunttheHunters & Missy

Woot our first South Australian cache. We camped the night at Chinaman's beach and decided to see if there was a cache on the way out. Thanks from Perth

I’m lucky enough to travel for work and today finds me in South Australia.
After landing, my workmate and I made our way to Whyalla with obviously a few stops on the way. Needless to say my mate learnt about geocaching.
Another quick park and grab.
Many thanks to Newbs_Clan for placing and maintaining Chen Kenichi. I found it, I signed it, and put it back as found.

On a road trip around Eyre Peninsular with 2N's. Found many and varied caches along the way. Thanks to all the CO's for the placements.

Last cache for our trip - after 3 months on the road, Where2nowBethells are heading home. TFTC Newbs_clan.

TFTC

Easy to find, TFTC.

Finished work at 1pm and then we got our selves packed up and off on the road to Quorn for the June Long Weekend. We were going for a few of the events but not for the game itself. We thought it would be a great trip to make for the long weekend with lots going on.
We didn't find very many caches on the way there as we wanted to get to the campsite before the sunset to get our tent up and have a sundowner beer. Then to the pub in time for the When Freddo met Sally event.
The road North was pretty busy heading to Port Augusta wonder why they still haven't made this dual carriageway the entire way.....
We only had time for 6 finds but every one counts and made for an enjoyable drive.
Not sure how this one got onto the list for today but it did, I think I liked the name. I used to love this show, it was brilliant and one of the first cooking shows I really got into. TFTC Newbs_Clan

Chen is my favourite Iron Chef. He’s always happy and has a cheeky sense of humour.

Thanks for the cache Moneydork.

Q&E

TFTC. Quick find after a bit of confusion with the car in front which was driving slow and wanted us to overtake. But knowing we were stopping for this Geocache in less than 1km, we wanted to sit behind. Turns out he was turning on to Chinaman Creek Rd too!

TFTC
Terrible windy day!

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Heading back to Adelaide after working in the North and the phone beeped with a text message so pulled over to have a look. Fixed that up and while stopped checked the map and here was a cache. Thought I recognised the name and after reading the cache page it all fell into place. Had watched these guys do their amazing show. Anyway, located the cache, signed the log and replaced. All with muggle caravan parked across the road but not visible at all. Phew.
Gratias pro cache Newbs_Clan

Easy find, took trackable to venture up north with family.

Nice easy find for the kids thankyou!

Travelling Australia since March 2014 it has been a while since in SA but enjoying this visit greatly.

Today we moved from Nelshaby to Whyalla stopping where we could with the caravan on tow.

A lot of rubbish in here as well. TYFTC!!

Watchout for barb wire. GZ was surrounded by it and it took some stretching and careful placement of body and clothes to reach. I replaced it so its not so much of a reach. TFTC

found on route to whyalla targeting old caches 2001 and 2002, letterboxes, virtuals, and earth caches for the long weekend plus anything else that i pass.

A quick find here, grabbed a TB and left one that I picked up in Alexandra, Victoria.

Thanks for the cache

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

TFTC

Yaaaaay

Thanks for the cache.

A nice quick roadside grab whilst waiting for a freight train from the South to arrive with the Muggle mate. SL at 12:05 on Sunday, 3 December, 2017. The cache and contents are all good and dry [^] TFTC Honey Badger Gang

Corrie Clan 06-11-17

I found to caches, one behind the post and one inside the post. TFTC

CPWanderer, Gizmo's Gang and Owl ran away for a caching adventure. This was a quick find by Owl, but the cache was in terrible condition. A new log and new container have been supplied courtesy of the Owlmobile. It looks like someone has been making chop suey in there, but cleaning up that requires a CITO.

Mrs Gizmo escaped for a two day caching trip to Port Augusta with Dr Owl and CPwanderer.
Owl quickly located a damaged cache without a log. Replaced the damaged container and added a log. Hiding spot needs some attention.
TFTC Newbs_Clan

Have just read earlier logs and noticed that a previous finder left a replacement in a different location, so it appears that there are now 2 caches here. CO might want to visit and rectify this.

Found It!
A quick find here while passing by. My Dad got really into that cooking show many years ago for some reason...

Found @ 1030.

Quick easy find with Beary Organised on way home to the Adelaide Hills. Very disappointing when people fill the post with crap. Replaced Cache as lud shattered. It really needs relocating as very offensive smell. TFTC TNLNSL

Found this with CherryRose on our way home from the South Australian Rural Women's Gathering in Cleve TFTC TNLNSL. Needs maintenance. Cache smashed so replaced it with black container and placed it next to the fence post because the hollow post had lots of very smelly rubbish in it.

An easy one to find that allowed us to stop and grab a picture of the beautiful scenery. Tftc

A quick drive by on our way home.

Thanks for the cache.

Found it with TICE [Hiltsu, J&T, kapeka & laalaa]

We had fun with caching few weeks here in Australia ( South Australia and Northern Territory ). Lots of geocaches and many sort of them too. We saw awesome places, weather was good all the time and people were friendly and polite. Caches were pretty similar like in our home country. Of course there were some exeptions. Nice and huge country!

Greetings from Finland!

Team ICE on a two week geocaching trip in Australia. Our main target was the Red Centre Experience at Alice Springs but of course we did some caching in other places too. We drove from Adelaide to Alice Springs and then back. We saw lots of interesting and beutiful places like opal mines at Coober Pedy, Ayers Rock and Kata Tjuta. Our rental travelled almost 6500km on gravel and tarmac roads. The weather was great, only on last day we got some rain.

All the caches logged as Team Ice, T-ice or Tice with kapeka, laalaa and Hiltsu. We had a great trip!

Today our trip continued from Port Augusta to Port Vincent. On a way we visited beautiful Weeroona Island, spend some time at Port Pirie, visited Moonta's himalayas and found many caches on the way.

Thanks for the cache and greetings from Finland!
