Been here before but didn't look if there was a geocache nearby. My signal on my phone is bad. The art is amazing and the tree was too difficult for me to get under. So thanks to cdp001 for doing the hard work. Signed log and left pathtag. Thanks for the Adventure. *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*
Easy find. Thanks for the cache. There's always a hard way and an easy way to get to things. Took the easier way in the end.
Fantastic silo art! Coords are a few metres off, but cache is well hidden! Put a lil swap in there too. TFTC
Spring Victorian Incursion 2024.Day Two: Kaniva to BallaratWeather: still quite windy, otherwise perfect. I hadnt planned to log any caches in Horsham today, but heres my Duntulum fix for this trip. An easier find thanks to the size of the cache. I had to come here to complete the Adventure Lab - I have so many half completed ones all over the country. Thanks for putting a cache here Duntulum.
Not going to lie, but Smug is one of my favourite street artist's and his work is amazing. Have been looking forward to visiting this silo for awhile now. Cache in great condition.
Hugely impressive! On a multi mission with weirdobiker after the Lameroo Ludicrous Leg Warmers events in SA and now heading back east via a through different LGA's. Its been great exploring the country out west with plenty of highlights to remember. TFTC and the lure.
After being in Lameroo for the annual JLWE event this year with an 80s theme, we are slowly making our way homeOut and about with Ronice88 today to pick up caches here, there and everywhere.Ive loved visiting the silo art in these smaller towns and it is a bonus to have this cache here
Found it . Tftc. Doing caches in the area especially at silo art. Greetings from Adelaide.
Away for the ANZAC Day weekend painted Silo Art tour. (Self drive) picking up a cache at each location. TFTC

Travelling from the Mornington Peninsula to Jeparit today, collecting leap day caches along the way. This was the last find for the day. Luckily I have left this cache for a rainy day (not that there was any rain in sight!). Very crispy and crunchy underfoot at GZ. TFTC.
Out for a post dinner drive with frmen1. We have both stopped here before but work has prevented us from geocaching (I know...we need to find different jobs lol). A quick find and all is in order. Interesting blurb on information board. TFTC
Found while exploring around this interesting area. It's in good condition. Thanks for placing it.
Stopped to admire the art but left forgetting to grab the cache. Thankfully went the wrong way so turned around and grabbed the cache on the way back.Thanks Duntulum for the cache.Found at 3:47pm on 28/12/2023. Find # 2721
Great location would love to know the history of the old building next door Thanx for the Adventure Duntulum Stay Dirty 20894:21pmSmokeyBearOG
Heading to Wyperfield NP and stopped to admire this silo art. After a short search we located the cache, all good here. Now to continue our journey.TFTC
Suscoe was heading westward today. We had been joined by Phetlern after catching up with them.
The drizzle was gradually clearing as we headed further towards the South Australian border.
We eneded up with a cloudy sky with a little bit of blue peeping through here and there.
The countryside is lovely and green.
Thanks to Duntulum for this hide.
The silos here are quite impressive.

Together with Suscoe, we had been looking forward to another trip to South Australia for quite some time. Plans finalised, an early start from home and we were on our way, with Bordertown the rendevous point. Quite by chance we caught up with Suscoe at "Poor Diggers" in Stawell. Together from there we found a great variety of caches, including this one and completed a number of Adventure Labs as we made our way westward, grateful for the half hour we earned before reaching Bordertown.
Thanks to Duntulum for adding this cache to the gameboard.

Made this harder than it should have been. The coords were a good 15m out so spread out!! Found in the last place looked.
Found out and about during a quick trip to the southern deserts where the stars shine so bright!
Thanks Duntulum and clear skies from TeamAstro. ️ Cache the planet!

Took a lot of finding, nowhere where my gps was taking me. But eventually found it hiding. Thanks for bringing us here
We were heading through to Jeparit for an overnight stay.
Saw that there was a cache at the painted silo, so stopped to look at both.
It always astounds me how the artists manage the perspective of the art in such huge scale!

TFTC Duntulum for your cache Arkona Silo Art. We are travelling from Ararat to Dimboola today. Once parked up in Dimboola we unhitched the car and went caching. Our main target was the challenge caches along Nursery Road, however we detoured to Arkona for the AL first and then targeted a few of the traditionals in the area before we met the challenge.
Found it baking in the sun but all contents are fine. Enjoying our 4 day silo art roadtrip and finding caches along the way. The abandoned homestead here is interesting too. Loved this artwork, very clever. Also saw Smag's work within the town of Dimboola.
Quick find while on road trip from Canberra with corvettePete. Stopped to check out the silo and found the cache tftc
Well there was an event I saw published in Bordertown hosted by Roaming Howie and since I was able to have 4 days off I decided to head over to attend the event and then to also do a few of the On Ya Bike series to finish off my D/T loop.
Throw a few oldies into the mix for my Ausmer grid and it was going to be a busy weekend with lots of Km’s.
So after attending an event, finding the ones required on the OYB series, surviving the heat then wind a forgotten challenge series then a few oldies and making it back to Victoria for the night it was time to head home.
Collecting caches that I come past as they say just one more.
A nicer day today with the heat turned down a bit.
This one and the silo art was another detour I made and one of the reasons it took me 12 hours to get from Kaniva to home in Melbourne.
The art was very impressive on this one and I got it after reading the info on it.
Big things are continuing to happen! Are you joining the fun again in 2023?

An arvo drive to Dimmy. After securing a shiny i was then off to gather some smilies around the town.
A detour out of Dimmy to get the ad lab here and this cache. Interesting fresh artwork.

This silo art isn't as well know about so thanks to this cache, I made the quick drive out from Dimboola while there for a family reunion weekend.
My Mum and q few other family members joined me and we're glad they did, turns out many of them who grew up in Dim actually knew Roley and had fond memories. While the oldies reminisced, my 9yr old niece and I nicked off to make the find. TFTC!

Silo Art Trail tours and Finding your cache Duntulum, thank you so much for placing it.
After attending a Celebration Event in Dimboola this morning, we headed out to this new-ish silo art and cache. Initially thought we might have to fight through long grass and thick bush but it turned out to be much simpler than that. Great silo art to view and it was terrific to have a cache to find here as well. Thank you for placing it Duntulum. All nice and dry at GZ.
We actually thought of placing a cache here when visiting the new Silo Art on our first visit but this is much better! A return trip to admire the great artwork and a smiley as well.
Thanks Duntulum for the placement.

Found by Mary and David at 15:50. A great tribute to the late Roley Klinge. Frogs were very noisy in the nearby flooded creek. Our thanks to Duntulum.
After much talk and hype we had decided to head away for a few nights over the long weekend to tackle and cache our way around this part of the state with our main goal being the Border Track, this was one we came across as part of the crew assault. With several sets of eyes and hands we quickly had this on located and logged, thanks Duntulum for the hide, nice art canvas also you brought us to.

On our way to meet up with 'The Crew' for a bit of bush bashing and geocaching this weekend! This has to be one of our favourite silo art pieces of all. Thanks for the cache Duntulum.

Setting off northward for an adventure around Mallee Country this was one of the first stops.
Sometimes being the 'invisible' man like the subjject on the silos would help when looking for caches in high muggle areas. And that reminds me - one of the best things about a camping roadtrip to desolate bushland is that there are no muggles.
Cache was found easily although I was quite wary of the tall grass.
Thanks, Duntulum.

Out and about today in search of some sunshine and caches. This was a nice size cache with an interesting view.
We enjoyed finding your cache
A nice park and grab on my way to Rainbow!! Beautiful art work displayed here.
Cache is in good condition and ready for it's next visitor.

After being in Horsham at the other silos we headed here to find a wonderful example of silos. They keep getting better and better especially when there is a cache nearby tftc
Stopped by whilst doing Silo Art Trail #3, so found this nearby one also.

We enjoy checking out the silo art that is popping up around us, one day we do intend to take a trip to see all the silo art. This artist has a great eye his work is so realistic. A great size container deserves to have a TB visit it for awhile. SL TFTC

Well, this is certainly a very interesting design which caused us to stop, think and scratch our heads. Accurate coordinates led to a quick find of a good sized cache. Thanks Duntulum for another enjoyable cache. Hopefully there will be more silo art caches in the area.
