09-Oct-24
Had a gig in Ceduna and now travelling home slowly with Mrs Mellison. Weve just had a nice dip on the beach, first for the season, and now a quick cache before we head back to Whyalla to catch up with some friends. An uncharacteristically non-windy day! TFTC

We are on a road trip from the NSW/Vic border to W.A. for a wedding. We stayed the night in Port Augusta and thought wed collect a few caches while travelling to Whyalla. We detoured to Port Lowly for a look and had a picnic lunch while there. The lighthouse was impressive and the water colour was spectacular. What a great spot for a cache

A day of caching in and around Whyalla. I have 48 hours to relocate a vehicle here, but got all the way to Whyalla last night, so today is just mooching around locally and caching before an evening flight home. My first time to this spot. The colours of the water are spectacular; its a pity that its windy and hazy today so you cant see the Flinders very well or Port Pirie either. No trouble finding the cache though. Thanks for putting a hide here YeahRight80. Its officially a mega.GCA1DNA The Great Leap ForwardAdelaide, South Australia, February 29, 2024.Wed love to have your company.

Found while visiting Whyalla for a few days with Team Waldron and TeamAstro, with the aim of finding as many caches as possible in Whyalla and surrounds. Day 1 saw us travel up from Adelaide and tour the very scenic coastline around Port Bonython and Point Lowly. On Day 2 we headed out to the Fill In The Gaps" (FITG) series, then to Iron Knob and back via the First To Find Power Trail (FTF PT) series. On Day 3 we cached in and around the City of Whyalla, and on Day 4 headed out to Whyalla Conservation Park before heading for home. Thanks for the cache YeahRight80!

Checking out more of Whyalla, the steel city, where every corner has a rusty mint tin...
and some of the nearby coast today as well.

As usual, a day packed with exercise and great views. Cool

Spotted your cache along the way CoolBig GrinSmile

Took a short while, but went back to the basics and soon had the cache in hand.

Appreciate Tempo 0 for placing and maintaining this cache on our SA geo game map Cool

Searching with Purrfect Di and Jack the Monkey, finding and signing cache logs alone or with family and friends using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Whereyougo, Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S21u, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just plain old dumb luck WinkCoolBig Grin Plenty of that luck stuff actually!!!
*Logs are composed and published using GSAK of course.*

A couple of maintenance assist tasks on the trail caches too. Looked like there had been some extreme weather since we were here last... oh yep, the floods the day after we left!!!

Caching is a hazardous activity!
Keep a lookout for sand traps, 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 any old bugs from alpha to omega !!! . [xx(]

Try to keep Travel Bugs as the only bugs you share and pass on Big Grin
Now everything's opening more - even more important to sanitise and safely distance!!!


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

Thanks heaps for reading all this addition to the log word count! There's a challenge somewhere, apparently! You win a virtual smile for the effort and getting to the end of the log Wink

The Non Wangaratta Event Tour 2021! Razz
Covid has postponed the Mega in Victoria until January but leave had been granted for AnyMules to attend with me and Bushfire. So Anymules and I went on a tour to Eyre Peninsular and mid north South Australia instead whilst Bushfire joined us in spirit only as covid meant he couldn't come here either. Big Grin Not needing anything for my yearly goals I hoped I didn't add too many to the DNFs [B)]Cool

Day 3: Exploring around the outskirts of Whyalla. Cool
This was a clever hide, but not too clever for us! Smile

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. Twisted So once again trying and fill my calendar with multi-caches and complete loop 11 again this year. [^] For my third goal I will try and get my DNF numbers from over fifty to single digits. Cool That should keep me busy again this year! [:o)]

***Thanks YeahRight80 for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin
