Away for the June Long Weekend with TheWhiteDogGang.We based ourselves at Orroroo and travelled far and wide over 4 days. We managed 1,500 kms during our travels.We managed to find some really old caches, one from 2001, and even managed to get all 9 terrain ratings. Not bad for 2 old farts with no coordination.The weather was dry if not cold on occasions.A good way to spend 4 days.Clever hide.TFTC

My 2nd day of my trip heading to and around the Eyre Peninsular. Today I left from Applia and ended up in Iron Knob for the night. This cache would be find number 6 of 34 for the day and find Number 14 in total for this trip away.

Guess where to look as I approached. Nice one.

Full time nomads exploring SA. We are now heading north to Darwin, but diverted to Quorn to see the Silo Light show. Unhooked the caravan and headed out to tackle a few caches before returning in time to pack our picnic for the show.

Clever hide, i like it. I didn't like the extra 457379657 litres of water on the grass that my shoes soaked up [B)] after the rain.
Dang! Who cares about my old shoes... the rain is waaaaay more important. Follow up rains is the boon for the crops already looking very healthy [^]

So after a great weekend of fun, frivolity and food in Quorn we packed up camp and headed back home to Adelaide. We took the scenic route and found 33 caches on our way plus adding 5 new dnfs to our tally.
It was quite overcast but we didn't get wet so that was a bonus. It was nice to see some of these small country towns although we were quite underwhelmed by the Golden North factory at Laura we had been expecting something much grander and a nice ice cream cafe! We had a nice packed lunch at Wirrabra and finally arrived home at 6pm in time to cook a roast supper.
Thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Quorn another part of the state we would like to explore further.
Nice hide here. Always good to find something other than a mint tin and good for a cache to be hidden in plain sight, only a cacher will know. TFTC chripsy89

Out for another day of caching while waiting on van repairs. Whatever would we do without caching. It's been many a year since we last visited this area and a few new caches about. Had a smile at this one as we have an identical one of our own at home. Great minds think alike and are deserving of fav point. Tftc

On the road for work and decided to add a few caches to the GPS to break up the long days.

I don't understand why but the GPS sent me around the twist.. When I actually looked up... I worked it out.

Thanks for the cache Chrispy89 Very Happy

39/55 for today - my best day so far. Day 6 of an 8 Day road trip through SA.
Whyalla to Iron Knob through to Renmark. Stopping whenever I felt like it, wherever I felt like it, if there was a cache nearby anyway.
I drove past a lot but didn't have time to get them all!

I was sure there would be snakes here! Maybe there was but I didn't see any.
A quick find of the cache, all good here. Signed and replaced.

Thanks

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

We made this trip up north to pick up some of the caches we keep driving past as we head to/from the outback Razz.
Spotted the hide quickly and given the location, took a chance and found the cache [8].

Thanks Chrispy89.

Apologies for the late log ... life interrupted my logging. I hate it when that happens! Sad

Mrs Gizmo escaped for a two day caching trip to Port Augusta with Dr Owl and CPwanderer.

Day 2 had us making a few finds before breakfast and a few more before lunch. Then we made our way home, caching along the way.

It was still raining so this was a wet find. Nice sized container after many mint tin finds during our trip.

CPWanderer, Gizmo's Gang and Owl were heading home after an excellent adventure, but not before a few more caches. This one was a soggy find (it was still drizzling), but a welcome change from too many mint tins in the bush over the trip.
