We are on a caravanning trip around Australia and are staying the night at Stenhorse campground and decided to go for a bit of an explore. We stopped at cable bay end so I could walk in and grab this cache. After a bit if searching I located this one. All good with the cache.Thanks for placing it here for us to find

Great hiding spot, TFTC!

Well just as I found it the hubby found it opposite - but we replaced it into the holder that it should be. Tftc

Bit tricky but clever

Off on our annual birthday caching trip, Purrfect Di, Mattycat and Jack coming along for the ride...
This year it's cleaning out Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park time. Something I started back on new year's eve 2012/2013 with two of my sons!

Today for Matty's 19th (maths...cats...) , on the 19th, we found 19 caches... yours was one of them !

Continuing up the track we were joined by an inquisitive emu, who helped us I'm sure!

We are grateful to The X-Trailers for planning and maintaining this cache on our ever growing SA cache map!




---

Travelling all over wherever we can - searching, spotting hidden items and signing cache logs using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Whereyougo, Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S21u, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just a guess or plain old dumb luck
Heaps of the luck stuff really !!!

*Most of the online logs are composed and published with GSAK of course*.**

Beware ! Caching is a very hazardous activity!
Look out for sand, mud, floodwaters, snakes, surprise cliffs, roos, wombats, things falling from trees, bulldust, and floods, and try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall off your ladder...
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- and do watch out for bugs !!! . [xx(]

Ensure Travel Bugs are the Only bugs you share and pass on (Covid cancels caching!)
Keep a safe distance - cache the countryside


Great of all those placing quality caches out and about around the country areas,
in sensible safe places especially! - it keeps our game fun, and interesting

We do appreciate if you actually did read all this extra addition to the log word count! There's a challenge somewhere out there, or so we've been told! You win a virtual smiley for the effort and getting to the end of the log Maybe if I worked out where it is I could do it and go back to normal logs again ! If you find the challenge let me know and we can put an end to these long logs !!!

[:o)]


The end. For now...

Found
Container might be in need of replacement soon. Quite rusty

After an early start to the day in Edithburgh, we headed out on a coolish day with iluvtrekking to grab some finds in Innes NP and others a bit further afield. Thanks X-Trailers-Earthlight

Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.
We set off early on a cold and cloudy morning with the threat of rain, which fortunately didn't eventuate. We enjoy the small towns, beaches, cliffs, history and ruins we encounter along the way. Thanks for your cache Earthlight and The X-Trailers.

Glad I eventually read the hint!. Terrific stories of your POP and memories of those days bygone have made this series really interesting! Day 7 in SA after numerous trips were sabotaged due to you know what and its the first day it has not been more than a chilly brisk! The Innes National Park and it’s caches was high on the list along with several other random caches so hoping to tick all boxes before heading back to home base. I’m out on trusty treadles aka my mtb to explore the trails and surroundings. I’ve learnt theRE are plenty of quality SA caches - plenty to pique the curiosity and anticipation of another surprise or fun cache. Happy and relieved to record no DNF’s today and on average most were located ‘relatively’ quickly. TFTC AND THE FUN and the effort to contribute to this fave game

Great geocaching day. Great location. Thanks

Maintenance run today
All good at h z

Found with gridge98 on a weekend away to the yorke peninsula.

Thanks for the cache

This was our main attack for the day, we set off from the Marion bay end and headed along the trail finding them, we found all but one cache along this trail. All the other caches are in good order. Watch out for the magpie near the old buildings too.

A big trip away to the yorke peninsula planned for the weekend travelling around touristing and have a look at sights I’ve seen before, plus camping over the 4 days wherever we needed up at the end of the day. Plus why not find 116 caches along the way for the trip. Despite the wind on the first evening the rest of the trip we were delighted by the beautiful weather.

Thanks for the cache

Nearly gave up on this one - looked for ages and the light was failing. Just about to give up so I wasn't walking back to Mallee Lodge in the dark when I spotted it! Thanks for a lovely walk.

Out for a stroll with Southern Cross Caching around Innes National Park. We started walking at Inneston and cached our way back to Stenhouse Bay, following the old railway line and the fire trail spurs.
There was very interesting history here, I was only vaguely aware of the fact that a train used to run along here. It would have been interesting seeing it operating, probably not at shinkansen speeds
The houses around Inneston have been well preserved and it would be good to book one sometime for a stay.

This cache was found using a Garmin GPS 64s at 10:13:00 AM and was 1 of 28 finds today.
Thanks The X-Trailers

Found while caching with Shonkylogic for the day. I came over to start on the power trails but this was a much more inviting thanks for a great trails and enjoyable walk. Cache in good condition.

Cheers and Happy Hunting

Second of the day on a nice walk. TFTC

Checked on this one today
All good

Cool hide

Found while visiting Innes National Park and staying for several nights in the Inneston Managers Lodge. Today I set out on my bicycle for an interesting tour of Inneston finding caches along the way. Thanks for the cache The X-Trailers and Earthlight!

Nice walk for a few caches TFTC

Our second day exploring this wonderful park, today we started at Stenhouse bay, exploring walking tracks and find a few caches along the way, after lunch we decided a walk would work off some food, a walk along the fire track was next on our list, disturbed a few kangaroos along the way but the cache was soon found and signed

All good to cache again

Attention Cachers. This geocache is currently out of action due to the government coronavirus crisis related non essential activities restrictions. I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Lets all work together to stop the spread of the virus

Found It!
There's definitely been a kangaroo living here. Or multiple kangaroos. They certainly poop a lot anyway.

Back in SA for Xmas so doing maintenance run down here for earthlight and ourselves.
It's a year since being in Innes National Park and still love it.
Cache all ok for next finder

Tftc

Lucky angle - unexpected! TFTC

Found while camping near by. March Flys are a pain. SLTFTH

After a week on the power trails with only diversions here and there to pick up other caches we are treating ourselves to a day in the Innes National Park.
A chance to maybe see some wonderful scenery and the native flora and fauna and even a lighthouse or two.
Decided to go a bit further down the track and collect this one to make tomorrow’s effort a bit more localised.
Thought we might have been foolhardy when we arrived at GZ but luckily for us it was spotted quite quickly.

This is my fav cache along this trail. Today was doing a maintenance run for The X-Trailers. Sadly had to replace cache as didnt have a new lid. Still cable tied and same co ords.

Nice find

Easy find

The SWAGJJ team has embarked on day 3 and are enjoying the caching pleasures of the Yorke Peninsula! So much on offer and such a wondrous part of our great land! So many caches makes for a busy and fun filled day! Amazing views today and rather windy ! TFTC

Team SWAGJJ is visiting the Yorke Peninsula this week to complete the geo art and collect traditionals, multis and other types along the way. Seeing some amazing country side and views as well. Thanks to all the COs for placing these caches.

Yorke Peninsula Day 3: A small break for power trails (after a quick 60 caches from the fishing line...). Then we collected caches around the Yorketown and Edithburgh area and in the Innes National Park. Some spectacular scenery to take in, strong winds to battle on top of cliffs, and another exhausting day. Signed as SWAG-JJ. TFTC!

Day 3 visiting Yorke Peninsula from QLD for a week of caching with geo friends Waz and Vic, Ardom, Gcoven, JACS Team and joojoo57.
Enjoying the SA countryside and the vast amount of caches to find. All logs stamped with our team name SWAG-JJ
A big thank you to all CO's for the time and effort in placing these caches for our enjoyment.

Found July 11, 2018

Travelling down from Queensland with my fellow cachers Snickersallan, Waz and Vik, Ardom, Gcoven and JooJoo57. We have planned a week long adventure to collect all the geoart, the fishing line and anything else we can get. Thanks for the cache!

Day 3: A bit of a slower day today, did a smidge of the powertrail, a swag of traditionals and a few other randoms along the way.

Today Gary and I wandered around Innes National Park - we loved it! Some of the cache hides were easy, others were more challenging, but overall we enjoyed a wonderful day with fantastic weather.

Thanks for the cache The X-Trailers
------------------------------------------

Woo hoo, the lovely Micaparamedic and I decided we would attend the June Long Weekend Event in South Australia (Edithburgh) and make the most of a road trip to the glorious Yorke Peninsula by spending a week away - NICE! [^]

We particularly enjoyed exploring Innes National Park and focussing on the new earth caches on the YP and in Burra.

Geocaching has taken me on many adventures over the years all over Australia and overseas. It has also introduced me to a brilliant and diverse group of people, many of whom are now close friends.
Today I was lucky enough to be out and about with some of those friends and we targeted this cache.
Sorry for the late log, but thanks for adding to the adventure!

Thanks The X-Trailers for placing this cache.

Just did a few of these today.
Will be back later in the year to explore more...
Took a lil while to find this one, and when I did the lid has been gnawed upon...
Nice hide, blends in.

Thanks for the cache The X-Trailers

Still walking.

A slow wander along with Team Waldron had us finding these ones where were found them. Sometimes we looked at the hint and it helped! No one around today.

Thanks to The X-Trailers and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

Was over on Yorkes for the annual work "debrief" camp at Gleeson Landing. While the others were out surfing and fishing, I headed out caching.

Managed to clear the southern Yorke map for now but one cache.

TFTC.

Second stop, daddy emu with his 'tweens' following TFTC

Quick find with scag0002

Qiuck find. Found with wils0382

I found this cache on a awesome trip to the fabulas Yorke Peninsula.
Thanks for placing the cache - I had an awesome time finding it.

This cache was a welcome break in the shade
There was no break from the flies !! [:o]

This installment of the walk took a little longer than the others.
Possibly because of cache blindness

The clue did help in the end,
as I turned around and almost banged me head on the cache


TFTC !!

Over this way for the weekend with a frog got in a bit of cache maintanance and took the Yorkes tour.
One of many fun finds around the peninsular [^]
Cheers & TFTC

Too cold for snakes today. Quick find this time.

Beta tested this cache whislt walking the firetrack with The X-trailers.
It was an easy walk and enjoyed the wildlife and scenery along the way.
At the end we walked the Thompson Pfitzner trail to place other caches .A great day was had by us both reminiscing about our times spent over the years.
This time we had spent our birthday camping at Cable Bay.

First we must appologise for the generic logs.

We came to Yorke Peninsular with Speedmistress who hails from Queensland to cache our little hearts out and this we are doing.

We solved loads of puzzles prior to coming and with all the earth, multi, trads and puzzles there are here we were never lacking in variety.

When we found caches that needed repair we have done our best to do what was possible, unfortunately we have now run out of spare containers, so no more repairs can be done. We have enjoyed the scenery, the walks, the animal life and the challenges that was encountered while traveling the Peninsular. Not all the caches have been attempted due to time restraints but those have been earmarked for future visits.
We also would like to thank Speedmistress for supplying our geocaching chariot.
A huge thanks to all the cache owners for placing these caches for us to enjoy.

On this occassion, I am doing a generic log. I have travelled from Queensland to meet up with Muff1 for a Geocaching extravaganza on the beautiful Yorke Peninsular. Our goal to Cache, Cache and Cache. Each day our "finds" have been growing in number, some days more productive then others. We have also been careful to take time to appreciate the natural wonder of the areas we have visited. The variety of caches was interesting, some very clever, some the quick grab they were designed to be. A big thank you to all of the dedicated Cache placers who have made this possible.

Found it while on a run/ride.

Spent way too long here. Looked at nearly every tree but to no avail.

Today we are heading back to the Yorke peninsula to chase a few first to finds up for grabs and continue finding caches here, its great to be back on the Yorke peninsula and what was suppose to be a overnight stay ended up being 2 nights and 3 days here on the Yorke peninsula, we managed to find quite a few while here and on our third day we had to head back earlier than planned after car issues, the weather was very pleasant while here and we look forward to returning back here to keep finding more caches, we packed the push bikes to make doing this trail easier and while they made it easier the pushies became a pain every time we needed to take something out of the car as there was one in the boot and the other on the back seat, time to invest in a bike carrier i reckon lol, it was a great ride along here and some of the hides were very evil but we managed to find them all...in the end lol, the horse flies through here are quite thick and i killed over 20 of the blighters, I even got to see a mallee fowl while i was here so that was a highlight for me : ) TFTC

Realising last night that I had nothing on today, I decided to go or a late night drive.
Arriving at Stenhouse Bay about 4.30am, I tried sleeping as it was raining but as soon as the rain stopped I headed out on the pushbike, in the dark, to find some caches.
Even at night, this is a lovely area with the night creatures' sounds, the sighing of the wind and the patter of misting (and sometimes a bit heavier) rain
It wasn't long before daylight dawned and I had a blast riding the rocky, sandy and tree branch riddled track
Branches hung low and many times I had to duck to avoid hitting my head.

I saw a fox, emus, kangaroos, birds, many rabbits and a malleefowl , there just happened to be a malleefowl sign right near where I saw it cross the track to tell me what it was
After riding the track, I rode back along the road to the car and then spent the day just sightseeing and casually caching
The day's total cache finds was 23 with 15 FTFs

Having been to this area previously with the CO, I have heard some great stories and enjoyed these trails this morning. The signs are informative and the peace and serenity of riding through dripping wet bush is awesome! [^]

A couple of the newer hides in this series are EVIL and took me ages to find them however most were quite easy and quick.
the hide types vary and so it is never boring [^]
Woohoo! *FTF*

EVIL!!! I looked and looked and while the description stated a camo eclipse tin, the hide was a preformed tube.
Very sneakily hidden!
