We are heading home to Vic after a road trip to WA and this was a nice hide on the way through Wilmington

Continuing our journey east from WA and home to Vic. Had a great weekend at WAGB and now seeing the sights and ticking off LGA's.Ticking off unvisited LGA's after staying at Quorn overnight. On first circuit I missed it, and started to be concerned GZ had have some recent work - but phew, all is good.TFTC TB's visited

TFTC

The Adders next leg with the Muggle Mr's from our short stay in Peterborough to Port Augusta where we are booked in to travel the return trip to Quorn on the Pichi Richi railway.All caches were in good condition unless stated otherwise.Another quick find that was easily spotted on approach to GZ. Log was fine.TFTC

Spotted it before i pulled upThanks for the cache chrispy89. It's always nice when a cache is a little different.

Quickly found, hidden in plain view. Thanks for the cache

We didn't find it. The point placed me right in the middle of the road

creative

Heading home and if it's common it's done well as we could not find

Easy find if you know that kind of cammo. The wire that holds the log is missing, so be careful, it will fall. TFTC

I found this cache as I headed back to Adelaide after a trip to the Northern Territory with Freddo for a few weeks.The cache was a quick find and was in good condition.Thanks chrispy89 for the cache.

Heading to QLD from WA picking up a few LGAs on the way. Thanks COs for placing and maintaining late log

TFTC

Thanks

Couldnt find it!

A quick find with frmen1. Good cammo. I had it in my head that these had been painted lol TFTC

Great cammo, but found with tassie expat while passing through. Thanks

Tftc - decided in an essay we arvo so time to take small detours

TFTC a quick find after knowing other finds done recently:) a lovely quiet town

Paper wet difficult to write on

Thinking perhaps we are not good at finding micro hides ahhah

We are travelling with Pprass and have set up in Melrose for a couple of days.Today we went our separate ways -Mr Morris hiking Alligator Gorge and Lady Morris visited Wilmington with the Prasses.Thanks for the caches chrispy89

Tftc. Nice hide.

First for the day on our way to Murray bridge. Love this hide. Tft c

WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 7 - Jamestown to Whyalla via Caltowie , Melrose, Wilmington and Pt Augusta. I spent the morning doing a caching lap of Jamestown, including a previous DNF. Then I was on the road. I managed to stop regularly and in each of the small towns I passed though to do some of the caches along the way. As I went further west it began to warm up. I was very cold In Jamestown last night. I did some Labs in Melrose and in Whyalla before getting set up for the night and going on a short tour around town. I was trying to do at least one cache in each ton I passed, and there were not many to choose from here. There is work going on at GZ, but the cache is safely above it and has not been disturbed.Thanks for the cache chrispy8946510.25 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 2013 Movember Blue A#267**Albida**

On our way to the Flinders we stopped here for a good find and sign.Another silo past it's use by date.Lots of them around the country.

Staying at Stony creek bush camp and doing the local caches. Tftc

Found it TFTC Found in good condition. Boy we can now spot those one from mile away. Our 10th find drove us crazy with one of theses

Clever camouflage. HINT you do not have to jump the fence

Still slowly making our way west back home to WA but a day trip up to Quorn via Port Augusta is todays plan.Grabbing caches as we go, easier to stop when not towing.A nice easy oneTFTC

OCW PelDroedGwin and geodog Peppa Staying at Spears Creek we took the very scenic drive up to pretty Wilmington. A quick drive by on a quiet day. Tftc

Ocw the Bebes as we stay in PA. Nice drive by the hills and this lovely village. Familiar hide once at GZ. Tftc

Went for a little drive with Dad and Mum to go back to the Puppet Museum to buy one of the China dolls after seeing them on Wednesday when I bought some puppets ..... a shame Brian is selling e erything up as his wife Rosemary is suffering leukaemia. I saw this cache and said to Dad can we grab so off we went, when I read it was a micro I thought I would be searching for a while but no a familiar container so I knew that was it. Signed log put back and back on the road this makes 40 finds this trip. Tftc chrispy89

Mr Tardis was out for an adventure bike ride through some back roads and tracks around Orroroo and surrounding areas.

Wilmington is a lovely quiet town with some stunning scenery.

I'm happy to say that I spotted the cache before I got off the bike. An interesting cache container that I wasn't expecting to see out here, these containers are much more popular in Adelaide.

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache chrispy89.

Found it!! Great cache!! TFTC

Was nervous about this one due to the symbols in the cache name but was pleasantly surprised with a quick in and out.

Tftc love these caches.

Nice cover

Log book now dry but worse for getting wet. Good camo

Some really big silos here, but then again they really aren't small are they? The cache was found after a short search as I've come across this sort of container before. My partner Karyn71 was impressed. TNLN. Cheers.

Found by Chookster after I didn't recognise a cache!

Day 5 was Port Augusta to Mildura. An early start had me watching the sunrise over The Remarkables. Another amazing day on the road. Thank you!

The Non Wangaratta Event Tour 2021!
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. Not needing anything for my yearly goals I hoped I didn't add too many to the DNFs [B)]

DAY 4: Grab a few move solved puzzles and head to Terowie.
Seen quite a few of these before making this yet another quick find as we passed through.

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. 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. That should keep me busy again this year! [:o)]

***Thanks chrispy89 for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. ***
Logs prepared and published through GSAK.

Thank you!

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Had an afternoon free while staying in Wilmington so decided to head out and find a cache or two. Headed out and this was the first target. Reached GZ and as I hopped out of the car spotted the cache. Grabbed it and signed the log and replaced all as found. No artwork on these silos yet. Wonder how long that will take.
Gratias pro cache chrispy89

visiting here to see the puppet museum

After traipsing around Western Queensland for 4 1/2 weeks then having to head to Northern Territory then SA to try and get back home that way due to border closures.
After escaping from NT to SA I was spending a few days in SA before heading back to lockdown in Victoria.
Staying at Quorn for a couple of nights and after ditching the van in the caravan park it was time to try and find all of the caches around here and also the ones on the way back to Stirling North.
A lot easier to pull over with out a van.
Forget to log these last few caches when I got home so here I go.
Added a new log and bag when I was here a while ago.

Thanks chrispy89 TFTC
