Dropped off a couple of TB's

Easy find

Staying next 2 nights in Wallaroo but taking the long way there. Haven't cached this area before.

Dropped off three TB's. Replaced the container, which had failed and was full of water and mould. All good to go now. Tftc.

TYFTC! Water logged, so did not sign. Tipped the water out and popped it back. Nice easy find.
With the accidentally abandoned train on the side of the road at the moment. Something extra to look at!

Found it, no travel bugs but just as well they might have drowned. Tipped the water out and put it back in place. TFTC

Woke up to a chilly morning - hoping it’s going to warm up though. Another day exploring Port Pirie and surrounds with iluvtrekking. Thanks Ferret52

Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure. We are enjoying our time travelling SA. Fantastic towns, ruins, beaches and cliffs. Thanks to all the COs for taking us on a geo-guided tour.

Away for a few days with Featherwaite to clear up Kadina to Port Pirie.

We pretty much achieved our target barring a few dnfs.

Raining today so long grass is our curse. After a short walk it was a quick find.

Found on a trip to Crystal Brook and Port Pirie with Team Waldron for a few days. It rained steadily for the morning but gradually eased by mid afternoon. The aim for the weekend was to find as many caches as possible in the area which we accomplished with damp clothes, soggy shoes and a muddy car. Thanks for the cache Ferret52!

After looking for caches to the south, it was time to cruise around Port Pirie to see what we could find around the town . Watched the storm roll over while eating lunch, so it was rather wet and soggy by the time I got here .
Been a long time since we played with travel bugs , so it was a quick find and sign here .
TNLNSL.
Thanks for one more Ferret52.

Dropped off Cookie 1 remembers. Took two trackables.

Full time nomads since 2014. Still tootling around the country trying to avoid Covid hotspots.

Back in SA for harvest work. Spending 2 weeks in Port Pirie, today we attempted a couple some caches after lunch. such a beautiful day to be out and about exploring after the last few days.

Dropped in 2 Trackables.

hello

Well it’s 2021 and I have finally said good bye to a not so great 2020 and it was great to finally be able to have a reasonable holiday as I have not had a decent break since 2019.
Made to South Australia and finally crossing the boarder and then being greeted by a couple of very friendly SA police offices for which i had the official paper work to allow me to enter.
After making my way west along the Eyre Hwy I went as far as Penong and the Eyre Hwy which I have not travelled along since the late 70’s when I was on a holiday with my folks and this was the last holiday before I started full time work as a sparkie and finding a few caches as I go.
Geocaching when towing a van is not always easy and I have to be a bit selective on which ones I decide to try and find for safe parking purposes especially along busy highways.
So then it was down to the Eyre Peninsula to see the sites down there Venus Bay, Coffin Bay National Park and Lincoln National Park were some highlights and I will come back again to have a better look around.
So after nearly 2 weeks spent on the Eyre Peninsula it was time to start heading back to Victoria but another lockdown in Vic has just occurred so now to change my plans again.
So after driving from one peninsula to another peninsula it was time to do some more exploring.
So I’m spending a couple of nights at Port Germein but as I’m I need of fuel I set off early in the morning to head towards Port Pirie and fill up.
So after fueling up this was the first stop for the day and I picked up a TB to move it along
I soon located this one and added my name to the log and now to continue my journey.
Now to head to Port Pirie for a look around.
Thanks Ferret52 TFTC.

Quick find. Took TB and left a TB. TFTC

We grabbed this one while heading out of town and back to family where we staying. This one looks like a good container but all the same it had quite a bit of water in it. A good wet spring season hereabouts Contents were good and dry however, so all is good. Thanks for the hide.

Right about where this cache is hidden is where i reckon the railway bypass should go to avoid that huge sharp curve to the west ha ha

The cache was found at the log signed at 08:43 on Monday 28/9/20.
The log-book bag within was split and the log was a bit moist so i added a new bag with some moisture-munchers to keep it dry [^]

a quick drive by on our way to a weekend of Geocaching in Port Pirie with Geo hubby Animal62.

A day out for some caching adventures with Mattycat, still in a moon boot for the broken foot was relegated to navigating, hints and checking for clues if the cache proved elusive while the cat did the searching and signing, quick find for the short stroll, quite a few residents sitting in here today left for others to move on this time, cache was a quick find for us today

Needed a driver reviver stop.
This looked like a good cache.
An easy find after trudging across the scrub.

I logged 7 TB’s in this cache.
Somebody come and move some on please.

TNLNSL TFTC Ferret52

Quick stop by the side of the road after missing a few caches before hand due to a dodgy Gps signal. Once I saw there were travel bugs here I needed to stop!
Note: thongs aren't the best style of footware to approach this cache.

Took TB. TFTC

Out with sir_spectre on our way to the JLWE. But of course you don't just come to an area for an event you also cache the entire way there. We may have wandered off the normal route but the scenery was great.
We may not have got big numbers but we did find some great caches and saw some amazing locations.
Thanks to Ferret52 from mogni

Unexpected stay in pirie was a good excuse to grab a few local caches. Surprised to only find 2 TB present today so will move them along and replaced with 2 more to rest here. TFTC!

Quick stop to swap a few tbs
Day 1
Adelaide to port Augusta.
This trip saw me travel to Maralinga to do the tour of the nuclear test site then up the Googs track, past lake Gairdner on to Mount Ive station, then in to the Gawler Rangers and finally hiking up Mount Remarkable before heading home.

Tb drop

Found by The Marathon Man and pnutbeagle on our 3-month Australia holiday after travelling from snowy and cold Northern Ontario Canada.

Finally found some time to get caught up in my logs - we are back in Canada now so time is available to log.

Please see The Marathon Man's Log for our experience finding the cache

Sorry for the late log - trying to get caught up on our cache logs

Found by The Marathon Man and pnutbeagle on our 3-month Australia holiday after travelling from snowy and cold Northern Ontario Canada. Now trying to log a week worth of geocaching finds

The cache was found as we travelled from from Port Pirie, SAvto Adelaide, SA to visit the National Train Museum and to camp for the night. one of 1 DNF's and only 2 finds today - Most of the founds were quickly found.

No problems here - WOW - a geocache which had all the trackables indicated as being in the cache that were in the cache. Took 2 trackables to take back to Canada with us in a couple of weeks after visiting more caches in SA and then NT

Hi there Ferret52. This cache was found on a day out caching and touring about Port Pirie. The container and log are in good condition - SL. Thanks to Ferret52 for this cache - our find # 6215.

TB Drop

TB Drop - quite a few trackables in there now.

A nice little drive by on our way back from a weekend in the Flinders Ranges!

With our Flinders Ranges geocaching weekend at an end, jesswrigley and I were headed back to Adelaide via Port Augusta and various geocaches in between.

We made a small stop to the side of the highway, and went for a jog inside this small highway strip. The cache was then found. I swapped 3 TB, although 1 TB seemed to be missing. Cheers for the TB stop.

An easy find, despite a fair bit of traffic nearby in the late afternoon.
Dropped off a couple of travel bugs and coins that we have had for a while, might be back later with some more. The plectrum is wanting to get to Perth and Australia is wanting to get to Uluru.

A busy spot but there was ample parking for the cars. A short walk - look left and right!!

Thanks to Ferret52 and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

A couple of road crossings and a few metres of walking soon had the cache in hand. TFTC

Found while passing through. No TBs yet. TFTC.

Another quick stop. Well, finding the cache was easy. The numerous u-turns to get to the cache were not. No TBs today, so the cache is obviously eating them again.

A quick find on my way back to Adelaide. I grabbed the TB inside. TFTC

Found it with the family plus one today. Thanks!

Returned original logbook which was found 40km North in the Mambray Creek Baptist /Methodist Church cache.

Log book missing? New one in place. Dropped off TB

Easy find. Cheers.
Should I have been worried about snakes?

Bit of a wander with Purrfect Di, muggle Alex, Sebastbat and Jack today.
Nice spot to hide things in the dark!
Might feel exposed on a busy day.
Thanks for this cache Ferret52

Our Spring Geocaching trip go this year to Australia...yes you read right, in Finland is spring now.
We visit in Australia (Adelaide, Murray Bridge, Port Augusta, Whyalla, Coober Pedy, Uluru, Alice Springs, Port Vincent and other place which are on the way those places) on April 05.-20.

We see many beautiful place where we visit and enjoy every cache what we found, so humble thanks every cache owner that you hiding this cache!

We (kapeka, laalaa, J&T. and Hiltsu) use common nickname Team ICE, T-ICE or TICE that we saves space in the logbook.

Thanks For To Cache!
Greetings from Finland

Team ICE on a two week geocaching trip in Australia. Our main target was the Red Centre Experience at Alice Springs but of course we did some caching in other places too. We drove from Adelaide to Alice Springs and then back. We saw lots of interesting and beutiful places like opal mines at Coober Pedy, Ayers Rock and Kata Tjuta. Our rental travelled almost 6500km on gravel and tarmac roads. The weather was great, only on last day we got some rain.

All the caches logged as Team Ice, T-ice or Tice with kapeka, laalaa and Hiltsu. We had a great trip!

Today our trip continued from Port Augusta to Port Vincent. On a way we visited beautiful Weeroona Island, spend some time at Port Pirie, visited Moonta's himalayas and found many caches on the way.

Thanks for the cache and greetings from Finland!

Found it with TICE [Hiltsu, J&T, kapeka & laalaa]

We had fun with caching few weeks here in Australia ( South Australia and Northern Territory ). Lots of geocaches and many sort of them too. We saw awesome places, weather was good all the time and people were friendly and polite. Caches were pretty similar like in our home country. Of course there were some exeptions. Nice and huge country!

Greetings from Finland!

Tice (Team Ice: laalaa, J&T., Hiltsu and kapeka) in Australia. Sun was shining and we had fun. Today we drove to South.
Thanks for the cache.
Greetings from Finland.

We re-visited this cache today to drop off a travel bug that's trying to make it's way to Western Australia.

Hi there Ferret52.

We found your cache **"Dazza's Travel Bug Stop"** at 11:50:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 15969).

We cached around Gladstone, Port Pirie and Napperby today. On our trek we found a variety of container types. & ended up finding 32 caches with 0 DNF's.

Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**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.
**Grabbed all the trackables.**

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Alice trip 2017. Day 4. Today was the day I caught up with Sol de Lune and LuckL10n in Burra. We joined forces for the journey to Alice Springs. Today was a short trip to Pt Augusta collecting plenty of caches along the way. I did an old TB hotel out on the island some time ago, so it is good to see another one now.

Thanks.

#6436 - 14:25; Day 6 of the Alice Mega Road Trip with Sol de lune and now albida33 who joined us this morning for the rest of the trip, so most logs were signed S.A.L. as a result. After a second night in Burra, we were now caching our way to Port Augusta via Spalding, Gulnare, Crystal Brook, Port Pirie, Napperby, Weeroona Island and Baroota. Last stop on the way out of Port Pirie, just before crossing the highway for a bit of caching on the back roads. TFTC Ferret52

After overnighting in Port Pirie it is time to continue our journey northward to the Oz Mega Event in Alice Springs. But first we must place some more smiles on the map for this area.

We've done enough around town and it's now time to hit the road and head north.

TNLN SL TFTC

On the road to the Alice Springs Mega with LuckyL10n and Albida33. We headed through Burra and Port Pirie before arriving in Port Augusta for the trek up the highway. Collected a good number of caches and all were found with no issues and the logs were soon signed. (Some logs were signed as S.A.L. to save space.)

Thanks for the cache and fun in getting to it and finding it.

A quick find, although there were a lot of ants! Dropped one TB and took Two. Tftc

In Port Pirie for a few days on our way to the mega in Alice Springs. TFTC
