Great hide! Loved it

Hay, that's pretty cool! Fav from us! Great spot! Cheers cobber.

Tricky and small

We are on a caravanning trip around Australia seeing the sights and finding a few caches along the way. We had gone for a bike ride to collect a couple of caches and then come to this one. Having found a plough one recently I was sure I would locate it. It didn't take too long before I spotted the hide. I was amazed at the different ploughs on display here.Thanks for the cache.

No luck today!

Wow sneaky hide, it does blend in well. The log is stuck so we couldnt sign it. TFTC

Thanks for my first find!

Had arvo tea at the cafe after sea horse geoart then out for caching around here. Love the sculpture TFTH

Last find of the day, found at dusk. No the cache isn't magnetic like the hint says. That blends in really well. That took longer than it should but we were all tired and hungry by then. Found with Mogni and JJ52. All logs stamped as JAMS. It was a day when the JAMS crew got together again or at least three out of the five of us. Plan A was to do the Abandoned railway trail on e-bikes but Allister is out with injury so, Plan B was a day the three of us ( the remianing one is STILL on holiday, that is a dam long holiday ) and host a CITO in propect ( i need a CITO in that LGA ) on sunday and find caches " in that general area ), Mogni decided we needed to attend a event on the yorke's on saturday. So Plan C was born. Off to the Yorke's it was, the first cache found was in Kulpara and then working down to Port Victoria then over to the Welcome to the Yorke Valley Dam event and some tasty food provided and then some more caching to our overnight accommodation in Adrossan. Sunday saw us caching along the coast on the way home, somehow taking a detour through Mallala before getting to prospect to host Cane Reserve Clean up CITO, I even got a cacher from England at the CITO. 80 finds plus labs for the weekend away, it wasn't about the numbers, it was about a relaxing time away. Any caches that were found broken/cracked/etc were replaced and any full log books were replaced.

Cunning little hide. TFTC

A nice variation on the magnetic not a nano on a piece of machinery . Well done you for thinking outside the box TFTC.

Took another 20 minutes. Still didnt find it.

3rd time lucky ( and a PAF) We started with this one today and we have finished.A lovely ride down the coast, a few lovely caches and sights to see.YP has been good to us.Thank for placing and maintaining this trick little cache.

Looked for quite some time. No luck today

Tftc. What a great spot..thanks for bringing me here. Didn't take me as long as I expected

Too good for me, and not for the first time either!

We decided to do this one at night as it was the closest to the caravan park. Going by the title we thought it wouldnt be too hard in the dark with a torch. My heart fell momentarily when we got to the site and saw the number, but we found it. Great hide, and thanks for taking us to an interesting location we would have missed otherwise.

Found by the youngest geocacher on her tenth birthday holiday. Tftc

On our way to Adelaide today to prepare for the Great Leap Forward mega event tomorrow.Kiscardi and I decided to explore south of Port Vincent before heading back to the big smoke.We had lunch in Yorke and are now heading north.I took Kiscardi to the AdLabs here and we collected a couple more hides while doing so.Not one of my favourite places to search but after a short while I spotted the well hidden cache.TFTC

Caching as team SPBINZ: Sidewaze, Paddlechick, Bullertrout, IsisNZ and Nanzie from Nelson, New Zealand. Having had one record day caching (430+) and then another quite full on (200+) were a bit more laid back today, taking our time for a good look around, several AdLabs some earthcaches and generally a more laid-back sort of a day.People sometimes ask how you can see much of the scenery when youre so busy caching but I find I see more than the average tourist who keeps to tar-sealed roads and drives from town to town. So, another awesome day exploring rural and small town South Australia.Greetings from the Shaky Isles across the ditch and many thanks for the hide.

Visiting the area with NZ_B, Mr Mcgoo and Marchwood. Today Marchwood and I decided to explore the area further south of Port Vincent - and also pick up some caches along the way before heading up to Adelaide for the Great Leap Forward Mega tomorrow. Looks like the day will be a little cooler - yah. What a great area for geocaching - Really enjoyed visiting lots of seaside towns. Thanks to all the Co's for the caches and ad labs that we picked up on our way.Thanks to YararooW for the cache

Thanks for replacing the log for me, new supply of logs just just arrived last week but beat me to it Cheers

Found by hubby really quick as I spoke to him as we started looking I said it is a hard one to find but with in s3conds he said he found it how I did not believe him at first but then he pulled out the log we did replace the log as log book full and was tatty put back in place Found on the way to meet some kiwis for a event at Port Vincent FISH AND CHIPS Too TFTC

We were not going to attempt this but being close we did make the attempt. No luck for us in spite of a good look and feel.

So many old implements here... But with the hint it was a little easier...Just a bit more looking and had the cache in hand shortly after....Nice display of old machinery...Thanks Yararoo Wanderes for the cache

Tricky but great find!!!

Tricky little one and well hidden

Found after a few minutes search. Log wet. Sorry we didn't have a replacement. TFTC

Found after a brief search. Clever hide.TFTC

Log is wet and starting to disintegrate.Very difficult to roll back up.CO may wish to replace.Thanks

Checked On This today.Cache is in place as per the hint.FelixII

Couldnt find it today.

It smells like roasted chicken when we look for this cute cache.Thanks for the cacheGreetings from France and the Yukon

I searched for this briefly 9 years ago, but didn't find it. Today, it was found with the help of a couple of previous finders on our way home.Thanks again to Yararoo Wanderers for the cache.

We found this cache after a nearby dinner with the Vic Cachers. Glad that we spotted this one early. Thanks from D & HA B-A

Farming technology has definitely come along way!! We come from the South East where all the drains were dug by hand tools nowadays those farm owners have probably forgotten how to use hand tools, if it doesnt start with a key its not getting used haha.The farmers have invented a heap of implements from necessity, work smarter not harder we say, seeing all the paddocks on the Yorkes we think all the big machinery is a necessity, cant imagine pushing a plough around.Thanks Yarrow Wanderes for the cache.

Didnt find today, will have to save it for another trip!

After coming here for several years and not finding it, today was the day the blue sad face turned into a smiley. Was shocked when I found it within 2 minutes! Tftc!

Too good for me. Thanks anyway.

Found this magnetic cache easy enough. Signed log then went to return it to original location and discovered it was no longer magnetic - wait, what?
Spent ages trying to locate ‘magnet’.
Didn’t really know what we were looking for.
The bad news is we couldn’t find the magnet
The good news is we were able to secure the cache in a good location within 30cm of original spot
Have photos I can send the CO is required.
Thx

We probably would have missed this if it wasn’t for the cache! Definite favourite TFTC

Found while out and about with JeffEddy and Mickyfam4. Took a bit of looking and searching through the previous logs, but we soon had it in hand. Tftc.

Out caching while staying in the region for the weekend. Took a little while to find it. TFTC

Too hard for us today!

Too easy! Sometimes you just see it right away ??

After all the geoarts done . Start to local areas and closer where we stayed. The weather are so awesome and very warm. Seesighting around. Stunning view and beautiful to look around areas. Great team workout

TFTC. Quick trip to YP to grab some caches before wooding season starts and we can’t travel !

Happy caching and safe travels!

What a great place to stop and have a stretch of the lakes. The horse drawn cloud looks fantastic. Very well done and an awesome pub. Pretty cool Little town thank you for placing the studio.

I got lucky with this one! Was out for a walk yesterday and thought I'd check this one out. Made the approach for a look and it was just there on the ground. So went back today and signed log. I put it back...but not on the ground... TFTC!

Staying a couple of nights in Ardrossan for a geocaching trip in multiple towns across the Yorke Peninsula, with a few new hides along the way.

Day 3: Visiting Northern Ardrossan, Port Clinton, Port Wakefield and Two Wells, as well as a few other localities on the way back home.

Goldy's first multiple day trip for the primary mission of finding and hiding caches was a good one. 63 caches found by 26 different COs, 875+ kilometres driven, 21 towns visited and 14 caches hidden.

Took a few minutes to located as there's a lot of places to look, luckily the cache was located and is goon condition.

Thanks for bringing me here.

Stamped the log book and returned the cache to its hiding spot.

Thanks YararooW for this cache.

Find No.1054

We walked from the nearby caravan park and had a look for this one.
Geohubby spotted it and the log was soon signed.
Some interesting history here

Many thanks for the hide YararooW

Tftc huddo90 and the fam took a 3 day york trip stopping to find caches along the way

Great spot lots of history TFTC

Thank goodness my man has more patience than me. TFTC

We love our caching getaways with PP2, always lots of laughs. Happy to say we came up trumps and walked away with a smiley TFTC

Found, after frustratingly mis-leading GPS, about six metres westward of where the coords were indicating. Reading the clue literally helped.

Thanks for the cache; nice location; it gave me an idea for a very cunning container.

Found it. TFTC

Thanks for bringing us here! The kids love old machinery

Where would I hide it, yep got it ??TFTC

On a week's Odyssey of caching to Yorke Peninsula with associated sightseeing and cafes along the way. Thanks Yararoo Wanderers.

So easy yet so hard.

Clever little hide! Found during a weekend holidaying with friends! TFTC

Amazing machinery. Thanks for bringing us here. .

THanks for the quick cache

Easy find once the gps stopped having me across the road. Very interesting machinery. Loved the horse. Signed the log GT. TFTC.

Thanks Yararoo Wanderers for this hide. I am usually hopeless at these, and didnt hold out much hope for a find. It was dusk which didnt make it easy, and I spent a whole lot of time looking in the wrong location. Ha, my own fault. Once I had focussed on the right item, it was found very quickly. Thanks for making this easy, you could have made it a lot harder!

Found, signed and returned as found. Cache is in great condition. One of the better kept caches in this lovely town, which is littered with great possible hiding locations. I resisted the urge for my own placement. Find #5696

No. 3 on the trip back home after a lovely stay in Port Vincent. Coordinates were slightly off but the hint puts you back on track. TFTC! Sabo + JJ

Nice having the ports so close to the fields. Quite unique. TFTC.

Great hide

Thanks YararooW for the cache

Finally found. Took much longer than it should have. Tftc. Great sculpture.

Nice place lots of history I searched for 3 minutes and couldn't find it then my dad checked underneath and there it was I laughed at my self because it was so obvious

I was staying at the nearby caravan park so after a great (and cheap) parmigiana at the local hotel, I grabbed a couple of caches within walking distance.

Lots of potential GZs, each having lots of potential hiding spots. It wasn’t a short search, but it could have been longer. I think I got lucky and found the cache after five mins.

Thanks for the cache Yararoo Wanderes.
