Yorke Peninsula road trip, day 4. Our after-dinner bike ride tonight was on the loop around the causeway.TFTC
The JAMS (JJ52, allister w, mogni, sir_spectre) crew went on a Yorkes Adventure. There were a few targets for the weekend, including finishing the fishing line, hosting a CITO, clearing a few DNF's and just having some fun.
All caches were left better than we found them.
Thanks

Quick find
Out with the JAMS crew for a weekend down the York's. The JAMS members along this weekend were JJ52, Allister w, Mogni and Sir_spectre. We came to finish off the last of the finish line for all of us and then goto a CITO event i was hosting near Kalpara. JJ52 and Allister W were target some certain cache types for the hard sounvier online bage. After Finishing the fishing line geoart we cached along the coast to Edithburgh and still only got to Edithburgh for dinner. Saturday was a cooler day for power trailing and only 1 snake was sighted, sunday started off cold but soon turned in to nice caching weather. We stopped for lunch in Stansbury on the way home.
Another weekend away with the JAMS team heading over to Yorkes to finally complete the fishing line along with other random caches that one or another of us had not found. It was a fun couple of days, Saturday was cold and windy along the coast but Sunday was a lovely sunny day with no wind, perfect for caching. After completing the fishing line...yay! we headed towards the coast and picked up a few caches around Port Moorowie before winding our way to Edithburgh where we stayed the night. Sunday morning we drove around Edithburgh then walked from there to Coobowie. After finishing there we headed to Wool Bay to avenge a couple of previous DNF's. Then it was lunch in Stansbury before heading to the CITO near Kulpara. A great weekend and lots of different caches found.
We drove to this one and it was a quick find.
Thanks for the cache earthlight and The X-trailers.

Found on 2/4/21 with spidermonkeys mum. Many thanks for the cache. Love Coobowie!
Today was our last day on the Yorke Peninsula, so we decided to head south from Port Vincent and checkout Stansbury to Edithburg area.
As we were driving I noticed this causeway and I wanted to get a closer look. The old stone construction got my interest.
While stopped to take some photos, I checked the app and noted there was this cache nearby so I thought I would get it (we need a few caches so we can pay up that fave we owe you for the Living Fossils EC!!!).
And luckily your cache page gave us the history of the causeway.

Yay. Found it. Another fun adventure, many thanks for the hide.
Possibly our last Easter at stansbury, we headed out in search of iced coffee. Nothing much happening in Coobowie but Edithburgh was alive!!! Sea eagle made all of the 5 finds while I was busy counting down (he even came up with the coords for the multi that had us wading through sludge. ). Anyway, a good opportunity to add to our list of Walk the Yorkes.
GeoVenture Mega Event at Millicent, still looking forward to it!! A new date has been set for October 2nd 2021 now. Have a look at GC82DAN.

After dinner this evening it was approaching dark so Davidwazza and I thought we would do this walk from Edithburgh to Coobowie. We left a car at either end to save us the walk back. A nice walk along the trail chatting away. Most of the caches were easy find and a few took a bit to find in the dark. All up a good little series and caches are all good
A quick overnight trip to the Yorkes for 1.5 days of solid caching. I did a bit of the geoart by myself before meeting up with Davidwazza for a majority of the day caching around Innes National Park. With an event in the evening in Edithburgh headed over there before going for a nice walk along the water front for the evening. Day 2 I made my way from Edithburgh along the coast line and back home by lunch time. A total of 169 caches for the trip.

Spending the long weekend on the Yorke Peninsula. I parked the car in Coobowie and I set off on my bike towards Edithburgh. A great path between the two towns makes for an enjoyable ride and perfect for geocaching. I picked lots of geocaches along the way.
Once at Edithburgh, I explored the town and grabbed a couple more caches south of the city before returning back to Edithburg for some dinner.
One or two were difficult finds, but the vast majority were found without problems. All caches were in good condition.
Thanks for the cache earthlight and The X-trailers.

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 was the last day on the Peninsula before we head hone tomorrow. So the team decided that it was a “tourist day” and we would go have a look down the coast a bit. 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.
Another straightforward find. Tftc earthlight and The X-Trailers!!!

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!
As this is a generic log comments relevant to this cache will be placed at the end. On a caching trip with Dty73 & Tankengine to Yorke Peninsula. Team signed as DTY. Thank you all the cache owners who have put so much effort in placing and maintaining these caches. Our last day on the peninsula so we decided that we would explore the area around Edithburgh. The weather had turned chilly and the odd spit of rain came and went. Cache all good. Kutgw
Our last day in Edithburgh, but we have been waiting for the promised sunny day of light wind so we can head north along the coast. Some great scenery and caching is hopefully in store.
Sorry-the log are starting to get a bit repetitious but we are having a great time, walking in the sun and the breeze, collecting caches as we go, enjoying the scenery and appreciating the caches. it’s nice that the hides are not to onerous, but just subtle enuf to make us work for a few of them. Others we have found pretty quickly. Life’s always more interesting if things don’t come too easy!
This one was nice and quick, a good drive by.
