Quorn- Heysen Trail 4 Quorn, South Australia, Australia
By Benjamin Screamer on 22-Oct-18. Waypoint GC7ZC3X

Cache archived because the carer is moving town and can't look after it. I have taken the TB with me and notified the owner.

Staying in Quorn for a few days and spent today finding the caches around town by deadly treadly and the geoute, most were quick easy finds .

Gosh it's beautiful country, we love being in the area.

After traipsing around Western Queensland for 4 1/2 weeks then having to head to Northern Territory then SA to try and get back home that way due to border closures.
After escaping from NT to SA I was spending a few days in SA before heading back to lockdown in Victoria.
Staying at Quorn for a couple of nights and after ditching the van in the caravan park it was time to try and find all of the caches around here and also the ones on the way back to Stirling North.
A lot easier to pull over with out a van.
I found a couple of caches on a lower section of this trail earlier this year around Crystal Brook and looks a very interesting one to do for the fitter ones of our community.

Thanks Benjamin Screamer TFTC.

Found it eventually when I realised I was searching on the wrong side of the road. I had a friend complete the Heysen Trail this time last year, I introduced her to geocaching at the Kuitpo forest section.

Earthworks is right !!
The bulldozer almost got this one
Saved by the hiding place

TFTC, and detour

Found despite earthworks around the cache

Full time nomads exploring SA. We are now heading north to Darwin, but diverted to Quorn to see the Silo Light show last night. Leaving today but decided to attempt some more caches here in Quorn before leaving.

The S.A. government has lifted travel restriction throughout the state. Happy geocaching!

This geocache is currently disabled because I support the government's non-essential activities restrictions that have been introduced because of the COVID-19 virus crisis. I encourage you all to suspend your geocaching activities ASAP. We must all work together to stop the virus spreading. The cache will be enabled in the future.

Another quick find, thanks for the cache. TFTHSL

Easy find amongst the rocks

Last find of the day as big drops start to fall

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.
A full day in Quorn gave us a whole map of smiley faces.

This caching stuff rocks. Thanks Benjamin Screamer

Another quick and easy find today. We've loved driving around and viewing the local scenery. TFTC

On the way home from the June Long Weekend QQQ event with Sebastbat and Jack the Monkey.
We loved Quorn so much we stayed an extra night then wandered home Tuesday!
Was good to find your cache as we traveled.
Hiked through here about five years ago!

It was the final day of the Quorn Quondam Quest (QQQ) weekend event, and it was a day of some local geocaching around Quorn, geocaching to the Pichi Richi Railway Woolshed Flat Train Station CITO event, a climb with [@Laighside Legends](http://coord.info/PR3BCW0) to Mount Brown, and then traveling back to Adelaide in the evening.

LL hadn't found this one before, so we both drove to this one in the morning, and another cache that didn't take long to find. I think that is the set of these Quorn Heysen Trail caches now, cheers Benjamin Screamer.

Found It!
A quick find here on the last day of June LWE. Haven't walked this part of the trail yet...
TFTC

Yet another piece of cache to respect Mr Heysen and his trail. I bet H423L can't wait to walk past these.

Found on the JLWE with four-fun and others- epic fun and games!!

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

Up this way for the JLWE and took the opportunity of a couple of local finds

In town for QQQ. Found with ma77hew and Geoboy while scoping out hiding spots for our game caches. Took TB. TFTC

Out with sir_spectre and BratKat in preparation for the JLWE. But of course you don't just come to an area for an event you also cache the local district. We may not have got big numbers but we did find some great caches and saw some amazing locations.
Thanks to Benjamin Screamer from mogni

Camped at Quorn for the JLWE?? This evening after attending the QQQ Feast it was time for a spot of night caching around town?? with hevwalker & scramping having fun as we go??????
Not so chilly tonight made it an enjoyable evening?

Out and about with Sir Spectre and Mogni for JLWE

We are in Quorn for the June Long Weekend. We are pseudo JLWE eventers as whilst we are here we are not doing the game day on Sunday. But with so many cachers around and so much going on couldn't resist making the journey up.
Camping at the Quorn Campsite so the hound doesn't upset anyone, what a lovely campsite it is too.
Had an terrific day of caching, today was about quality over quantity. It was a wonderful day to be alive, the scenery was spectacular, we loved seeing the Pichi Richi train. Quorn is a lovely place, we found the people to be so welcoming. We couldn't do as much as we wanted with the dog in tow but we still had a brilliant weekend.
Without a doubt we will be back up here sometime to head a bit deeper into the Flinders Ranges and see a bit more of the lovely scenery.
Quick find here of another one in this great series. Nice sized containers you have used too! TFTC Benjamin Screamer.

A quiet location today.

Easter 2020 sees SA hosting the next Easter big event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Check it out. We would love to see you there.

We arrived in Quorn yesterday, quite surprised by the scenery on the way through to Quorn with green hills! We have never been around here before so are enjoying spending a few days exploring the area. Cache was found in good condition. Mr 4Moule says he has always wanted to do some of this trail. Will have to pop it on the bucket list. TFTC

Found with Em and Chris during the weekend event

A nice sized container to off load some stuff that has been in the caching bag for a while. TFTC.

Quick find here, even in the dark!

Today would have been a beautiful walk along this trail - clear sky a slight breeze and not cold at all. A nicely tucked away spot that you found!
Thanks Benjamin Screamer

Thx for the cache! Cheers Peter

Got it

We have been travelling since January when we left Geelong and travelled up the centre to Alice then Darwin. We crossed the border into WA at the start of May and completed the Gibbs river road which has been one of the highlights so far
From Broome we travelled to cape leveque to find the best beach ever
From Broome we have then zig zagged from coast to inland to make sure we saw as much as we could
We are travelling along at our own pace and so will cache and see as much of the area as we can
Honestly it’s thank to caching that we get to see so much
TFTC
We have decided to stop in port Augusta for a few days as it seems to always be a place we drive straight through on our way back and forth up and down the centre

Happy to get the FTF
