Didn't find it after much searching ... hasn't been found in a long time. Think it needs some owner maintenance
This is a great spot to explore. There is history of the town in all the names. TFTC on our holiday from Adelaide.
Quick find in Lincoln, must walk these trails one day. Grabbed TB, heading east soon. TFTC 
A quick and easy find in the obvious caching spot.

Hi there viper231.
We found your cache **"dghoffy"** at 2:13:00 PM today. (This makes our find count 15726).
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around Port Lincoln today. On our journey we found a wide variety of container types amongst our 19 caches (& 7 DNF's) today. Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
Yaaay, after a long string of DNF's - we've finally found a live one.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

This was part of a road trip with a difference with my muggle dad, we hit the high (Not really) seas on the P&O Pacific Jewel which started in Melbourne and headed for Port Lincoln Via Kangaroo Island. It was a pleasant five days where relaxing was the theme.
Today we woke to a particularly bad day weather wise with an overcast sky and rain falling. I was determined to at least head onto land and find a few caches. Even tho I was here last year, There were still a lot of caches to find here. After walking for about 30 minutes, the rain stopped and the weather turned into a nice day. This was the first cache of the day and I was surprised to see it had not been found since last July. I have found a few dghoffy caches and they are indeed fantastic. This cache was a nice quick find in a deserted park.
**Thanks to viper231 for the cache. TNLN.

CPwanderer, GoodLook and I headed off for a weekend in Port Lincoln via an overnight stop in Whyalla
Our weekend was unexpectedly extended by a day due to illness and so my tally at the end of the 'weekend' was 168 cache finds
Sadly this was marred by a massive 28 DNFs
Port Lincoln, despite being virgin caching territory for all 3 of us, did not provide us with the pleasure that we had anticipated
So many of the caches were bison tubes and those that we did find, quite often were in places where a larger cache could have been hidden
The other issue was the lack of maintenance on many caches
There are people trying their best to maintain the 'wheres wolly' cache hides however their resources are stretched thinly..... so if you are heading over, please pack heaps of cache maintenance containers, bags and log books and help out where you can. [^]
That being said, the trip was still a blast and some great caches were found and great views were seen!
Sometimes I think CP's paper lets him down... we found this, our first find of the day, in the morning of the 26th

After 2 DNFs this morning we finally find the cache and grab a smiley.....despite this being a good cache we are not enjoying caching in Pt Lincoln so far
Found whilst on a road trip with CPwanderer and Locus Cache, with the aim of the weekend to cache in and around Port Lincoln - fresh territory for us all. We certainly had a great time, however with a DNF rate of about 40% [:(!], it was tough going! We did however thoroughly enjoy the beautiful locations and scenery.
After joking all day on the Sunday we should spend another night in Pt Lincoln, circumstances presented that meant we needed to extend our time away! We took it slowly on the way home which enabled us to once again visit some terrific places
Thanks for the cache

We found this cache as part of a 4 day trip which went from Adelaide to Sceale Bay returning to Adelaide. The purpose of the trip was to remove Freddo was his home location too near the Clipsal 500 track and for us and Freddo to achieve a difficulty 4 1/2 and terrain 4 cache to make us well rounded cachers. The cache we needed to find was located near Venus Bay and we successfully completed this goal early on Friday morning which left us plenty of time to find "just one more". Loved the scenery and having the opportunity revisit this great area 
Thanks to viper231 for placing this cache.
