The wind farms seem to be popping up everywhere these days, but someone told us they turn them off if it gets too windy hmmm??How many roads must a man walk downBefore you call him a man?How many seas must a white dove sailBefore she sleeps in the sand?Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs flyBefore they're forever banned?The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the windThe answer is blowin' in the windYes, and how many years must a mountain existBefore it is washed to the sea?And how many years can some people existBefore they're allowed to be free?Yes, and how many times can a man turn his headAnd pretend that he just doesn't see?The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the windThe answer is blowin' in the windYes, and how many times must a man look upBefore he can see the sky?And how many ears must one man haveBefore he can hear people cry?Yes, and how many deaths will it take 'til he knowsThat too many people have died?The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the windThe answer is blowin' in the windThanks equipe de cinq for the cache.
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

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.
Stopped here as we are winding our way finding caches in out of the way spots.
Thanks for the cache equipe de cinq.

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.

It was so windy at the wind farm lol We have farms near us and I find the whoosh whoosh quite soothing. Then the y went quiet. Looks like they turn off for a rest period and then come back on. The cache was not where the hint indicated (saw that previous finder said the same and rehid where found). We popped it back where found which is still an easy find. TFTC
Found after a short search with tassie expat while visiting this interesting place. Thanks
Ms FV again has a committment this arvo so grabbing some smilies.
The hint didn't help! The cache was returned to the positioned found.
Thanks "equipe de cinq" for the cache

Cop that wind alright, least it wasn't as bad as yesterday. Interesting info here. TFTC
More of our annual birthday caching trip, Purrfect Di, Mattycat and Jack too coming along for the ride...
This year we've cleaned out Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park and then some surrounds. Something I started back on new year's eve 2012/2013 with two of my sons!
Now we're expanding across some of the peninsula's foot. While also sightseeing and relaxing a little too!
The weather has been quite mild for January, only one snake sighting, some emus, a roo, foxes, bunnies, and two bulls on the roads! All making for a fun trip.
And... we found your caches. Signed the logs. Made the smileys on the map .
An impressive array of big fans.
Much thanks to equipe de cinq 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 !!!

The end. For now...

Found on a day trip around the area during our holiday stay at Stansbury. Gives a great idea on just how big the windmills are. Tftc
The wind turbines were operating earlier in the day but by the time we go around to the viewing area they were off :/ It was still a great place to visit and see the turbines up close. Will have to visit again when we see they are running. I'm sure that is a sight to see. TFTC!
Out exploring. Having a great day.

They always amaze. Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
An unexpected chance to get away so I did. The YP always makes you smile even if the wind is seemingly from deepest south.
Thanks to equipe de cinq and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]

Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventur. We set off in sunshine today, a perfect day for Geocaching. TFTC
Another great winters day out with iluvtrekking picking up finds around Edithburgh. Thanks equipe de cinq
Another day out exploring - left Yorketown for the local market in Edithburgh and picked up a few caches along the way - TFTC
We have cached in this area on previous trips to Yorke Peninsular, it was wonderful to return to these wind monsters and wonder at the might. We enjoyed reading the signs that told us about the insides of the tower. SL TFTC
Logging a find as part of the beta tester crew for this giant is it art series.
I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count.
This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...
Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

Plenty to see at GZ.
Many thanks for the hide equipe de cinq

A quick easy find while showing the folks the YP, certainly a windy spot for the day.
Enjoying a few days on the bottom on the peninsula, enjoying the sights and finding a few smileys

We have spent the day driving the back roads of the lower Y.P. We have been taken to old ruins of churches schools and farms. Also a wind farm and painted water towers. Thanks to those who placed these caches. In some caches we have left something.
A short stop here today, managed to find the cache nicely hidden and all is well
With 2.5 days free and nothing to do, what better than to head to the yorke peninsula for a few days. I made a plan of trying to clean up majority of the caches on the peninsula going from cache to cache. Managed to come away with only a few left and 247 finds for the few day trip.

Quick find amongst the majestic wind farm. Driving around with Beary Organised after delicious Fish & chips in Edithburgh. TFTC TNLNSL
Quick find with CherryRose. Loved being able to get this close to the windfarm. Bigger than a micro. TFTC TNLNSL
Found It!
A quick find here. I vaguely remember having found a cache here before? You used to be able to walk out and stand right next to the tower but it looks like they've closed that off now.

Full time nomads since 2014.
Back in SA for harvest work, which is all but finished now. Heading to Edithburgh for lunch with friends, we of course managed to grab a few caches on the way down and back up.
