28-Nov-21
I was staying at the Minlaton caravan park for a couple of days. Using it as a base to explore the local area.
Having spent the morning on the nearby Fishy trail, it was time to slow down, get out of the car and explore on foot. I drove to the centroid of this little trail and continued on foot.

All caches found without problems.

Thanks for the cache clan greenwood.

Today after a night shift of being "essential" again, I met up with Mr Froghoppin for a drive and a few caches to find. Turned out to be a huge day with a small length of fishin' line and several nearby caches located and logged. Thanks to Mr Frog for doing the driving and making it all happen.
Most caches today were in pretty good condition, with a few needing some TLC and some showing evidence of the recent much appreciated rainfall Razz

Nicely hidden in the obvious hollow.

thanks clan greenwood for placing and maintaining this cache Big Grin


---- Cool ---- Cool ----


2020 - the caching curve has been flat long enough ! ! !
But do keep washing your hands. Exercise. Cache. Eat. Cache. Repeat.
And stay home if you're sick!

Support the regions by placing lots more caches! ( especially around the Barossa please [:o)] )

After doing a second day on the Gone fishin series, we grabbed a few caches on the way back to Minlaton. This was one of them. Thanks clan greenwood
 
10-Apr-19
A last minute trip that was purely made due to there being a CITO at Minlaton, off I went caching at a few stops along the way from Adelaide, collecting a few of the T.O.Y caches.
Arrived at the event for the evening to meet some lovely people from different parts of the world. We chatted and shouted so many stories around culture and the differences between countries, lots of random caching experiences and as well just some random conversations. After the event I had planned to do some of the geo art further south. I was soon joined by team GBS and what legends they are, some amazing people and they went guns blazing along the trails.
From 7-12 we found just over 210 caches. The trail is in very poor condition and probably needs a maintenance run in the near future. Some of the caches are broken or just a log book.
Day 2 I woke up and did some local caching before the CITO. The CITO was fantastic with 4 large bags being collected. I soon said my good byes and targeted the rest of the T.O.Y series along the eastern coast line. All the caches in the series are all in good condition.
Then I farted for the event back in Adelaide by mid day. Overall a total of 255 caches for an overnight trip and some long time caching friends made.
Thanks to all the Cache owners for their placements
Sorry for the generic log.

Cooler today, cloud cover, so we thought we'd gather some caches instead of moss. Out and about with messy61. Brown Christmas Beetles and white snails galore, some slithery snakes and sleeping lizards; sticks and bull ants and long tall grass...but we never did see a unicorn.... Cache found with no critters...not even the headless man was out and about this afternoon. Tftc.

Tftc. Nice walk
 
03-Oct-18
Found with dty73 and youban on our Yorke Peninsula invasion! All logs signed DTY (dty73/Tankengine/youban). - Had a great day today, in that we didn't do any of the power trails! That was a very nice change! So a nice variety and some very nice locations! Thanks!
 
03-Oct-18
We have a small team travelling to The Yorke Peninsula from Canberra. It was decided by the group before we left that our team name would be DTY, although I act like the boss, I rarely am and so the initials actually stand for - dty73, Tankengine & Youban.

Today the team decided that it was a “tourist day” and we would go have a look around a small part of the peninsula to see what there is. But of course like true geocachers we couldn’t help taking a caching route as we went. We ended up getting a lot more than we expected, but we did have a good time.

A very easy park and grab at a good location. The tree really does remind me of sleepy hollow. Tftc clan greenwood!!!

Was down in Minlaton with LLL51 to watch the football grand final and we decided to get a few caches before heading back to Moonta. [^]
Stopped here as we made our way around Minlaton picking up caches we didn't get on our last visit. Were pleased for easy finds as it was very cold. Big Grin
Thanks for the cache clan greenwood. Smile

After a rough night at Port Rickaby we headed off very early for breakfast at Minlaton to begin day 2 of our rest, relaxation and rejuvenation week, with caches chucked in, just a few here as we are hoping to get the fishies series finished today. TFTC
 
05-Sep-18
We’ve left Maitland after three nights. A lovely town with some beautiful old houses built from what we assume is the local stone. On our way to Minlaton for a few more nights to continue our assault on the Gone Fishn’ power trail.
It’s great to find a few different sized and different types of hides after so many more micros in the bush! But we do appreciate the enormous effort made by all the CO’s on the Yorke Peninsula.
A simple straightforward find in a logical spot.

10-Jul-18
Day 2 of the Yorke Peninsula adventure. The main goal for today was to finish the geoart and we made it! Anchor, fish, jellyfish, hook and two starfish! We also had time to collect a few traditional caches that were nearby. Far too much caching for any sane person... TFTC!
 
10-Jul-18

Found with sharkiefan

A Big week was planned to travel around South Australia, staying in Minlaton, Tarlee and Adelaide. We cache along a number of Trails, managed to grab a few off the beaten track, some well known caches and the odd one that came up on the map as we were travelling around.

It ended up being a massive week of 2960 odd kilometers travelled, with day find counts of 25, 256, 361, 318, 66, 205, 104 and 76 (yep thats 1411 for the 8 days)

Found with FUF009.
We headed out of St Arnaud, VIC early this morning and drove practically non stop to Minlaton with either totally random stops for caches or specifically selected caches.
It felt like a very quick drive despite it actually being about 8 hours all up.
Such a nice change of scenery and nice for both of us to have free range caching rather than the limited range St Arnaud has left for FUF009 and difficult Melbourne caching for me.
All caches found were in good form unless mentioned at the start of my log.
Apologies for the generic log but I just can't do individual logs after the mass of caches that were found. I'm so tired they all have merged into one big cluster.
Thanks to all the COs for their hides. Tftc
