Today we are making our way to Port Augusta for a few days.We decided to come and visit this island and have a look around. The views are spectacular, and today certainly it was not actually an island! On the map it looks like it is an island. At the end of our walk, we came to find this one and pretty soon had our name added to the log. Thanks Liz and Bruce for showing us this location and giving us another Adventure today on our travels.

Last night fitzy_1965 and I stayed at the Wilmington Hotel. Old facilities but new air con was a winner! And honest locals as we realised in the morning that we had left the car keys on the dashboard last night!Our plan today was to collect oldies & counties and whatever inbetween whilst making our way back to my cousin's house for a family dinner.All caches found quickly and easily unless otherwise mentioned. This was one of them.

34,308. Found with minniek during our trip to The Great Leap Forward Mega Event in Adelaide on 29th February 2024.Day 4 : After staying overnight at the Wilmington Pub, we headed out hunting for more Counties, oldies and other interesting caches. We do enjoy meandering around the countryside doing this. Hopefully we will cross off a bunch more South Australian Counties today. Lots of great caches to choose from as well. This was the next cache - and it was a nice quick find once at GZ. Stamped the log, replaced the cache as found, then we continued on to the next one.Thanks Liz and Bruce !!

After over seven weeks on the road, I'm back home and finally catching up on all my logging.Caching in South Australia was fantastic, so many good hides to find, and we found ourselves zigzagging all over the place doing lots of geoart but of course ran out of time to get everything done on our to-do list.The majority of caches we found were in great condition and well maintained, which is a credit to all the CO's who placed them, so thank you.Our logs were mostly signed as 5 for QLD to save room on the log sheets, and no doubt, we'll be back again in the near future.
 
28-Feb-24
We are ion South Australia for the leap Year Mega. After an early start from our overnight accommodation, we set off to find the caches on our target list.All caches were found and signed as "5 for QLD" for our traveling group of hatzofff (myself), RoddyC, Imbunda, Snickersallan and grannysmith1947.Today we target some geo art and other caches. Loving the area, but it is very hot and quite windy today.

After wandering around W.A. for the last 3 months caravanning, caching and hunting wildflowers, we are slowly making our way home to Adelaide. Always stay here at Laurie Park and go into Pirie to get the Pickled Seafood. Too windy to travel so decided to cache instead.

Sebastbat took Jack and myself for a long drive... and we ended up at your cache SurprisedBig GrinSmile

Quite surprised at how busy the major roads were, so got off the beaten track whenever we could Wink

Seems the further north we went the more we wanted to go north, but all good things must come to an end sadly, so eventually we went home again! But we might just do it all again tomorrow Razz

Hot property out here with an awesome view of the smelter stack [:o)]
Always nice to log a Liz and Bruce original Cool
So true that we drive past a lot and rarely think to go over... today we did!

Thanks for putting it out there Liz and Bruce

Wherever we go caches are located and logged using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S20+, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just plain old dumb luck WinkCoolBig Grin
*Logs are composed and published using GSAK of course.*

Please do stay safe when caching.
Lookout for mud, snakes, surprise cliffs, wild goats, wombats, bulldust, and floods,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- but especially lookout for bugs. [xx(]

Make sure that Travel Bugs are the only bugs you share and pass on Big Grin
Now our borders are open - even more important to sanitise and safely distance!!!


We really appreciate all those placing quality caches out and about around the countryside,
it keeps our game safe, fun, and interesting Cool

Well it’s 2021 and I have finally said good bye to a not so great 2020 and it was great to finally be able to have a reasonable holiday as I have not had a decent break since 2019.
Made to South Australia and finally crossing the boarder and then being greeted by a couple of very friendly SA police offices for which i had the official paper work to allow me to enter.
After making my way west along the Eyre Hwy I went as far as Penong and the Eyre Hwy which I have not travelled along since the late 70’s when I was on a holiday with my folks and this was the last holiday before I started full time work as a sparkie and finding a few caches as I go.
Geocaching when towing a van is not always easy and I have to be a bit selective on which ones I decide to try and find for safe parking purposes especially along busy highways.
So then it was down to the Eyre Peninsula to see the sites down there Venus Bay, Coffin Bay National Park and Lincoln National Park were some highlights and I will come back again to have a better look around.
So after nearly 2 weeks spent on the Eyre Peninsula it was time to start heading back to Victoria but another lockdown in Vic has just occurred so now to change my plans again.
So Port Germaine was my next target for the night.
Another morning spent driving in the rain as I have not had the best weather on this trip what ever happened to summer.
The rain has stopped and as I have rounded the the bay and heading back down south the weather is beautiful on this side of town.
I have finally reached my destination for the night which is Port Germein so time to set up.
Another nice day is beaconing so I did the pier walk early which in my mind I had walked half way to Whyalla by the time I got to the end.
So now to tackle some caches around the town then widen my search area.
After travelling the scenic route it was time to head back up to Port Germein and pick up a few caches heading north.
Took the detour into Weeroona Island and after crossing the causeway I realised I was not really on an island.
A drive around the well set up island I found somewhere to park and walked down to this one.
After a very thorough search as my GPS was not playing fair with me I eventually spotted the cache, added my name to the log and on to the next one.
Thanks Liz and Bruce TFTEC.

Out on a road trip to explore the mid North. Stopping and grabbing a few caches along the way to break up the journey.

Cache and contents all in good condition.

During our new years break, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to the Eyre Peninsula to travel around the various coastal towns. We started the trip with Jeep trouble, but then continued in our alternative vehicle without 4WD to stick to the main tourist roads where possible. We travelled south-west to Tumby Bay and Port Lincoln via Whyalla, Cowell, Cleve, Arno Bay; west across to Coffin Bay; and then north-west to Streaky Bay and Ceduna via Elliston, and Venus Bay. We then headed back east staying in Kimba via Poochera, Wudinna, Lock, and Darke Peak.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I commenced our adventure, stopping off in Port Wakefield for that Adventure Lab and a few other geocaches. However, our trip in the Jeep was short lived when the clutch failed just before Port Pirie. A tow back to Adelaide, and start once again in jesswrigley's Mazda 2 meant we only made it as far as Port Augusta today (not Tumby Bay as planned). We did make a short detour to Weroona Island, which had some interesting history.

We made the walk down from the road above, and after briefly searching around, we found the good hiding place. It was nice to have found this oldie 10/2003 hidden cache. The cache container and logbook were in good shape, although the logbook appears to be inconsistent with the last finder? Thanks Liz and Bruce for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Found while we toured a circuit of the Flinders Ranges, Marree, Roxby Downs, Woomera and Port Augusta for the week, mostly touring the backroads and visiting many scenic and interesting locations. This was found on the last day of our holiday on our way back home. Thanks for the cache Liz and Bruce!

Thought we'd detour via Weeroona Island today, particularly since we've driven past a good dozen times over the years and there's a good handfull of caches here (just like you described) [^].
It was damp, wet and windy on our arrival, but not raining Smile. Was checking out some of the real estate prices as we drove around [8] and obviously this is a very attractive place in better weather Surprised!

Slowly heading in the direction direction of Quorn. Targeting multi's and any trad that is along the way. quick find.
found with mogni on route to Quorn for the June Long Weekend event, we have left a day early to grab some extra caches.

Found it with TICE [Hiltsu, J&T, kapeka & laalaa]

We had fun with caching few weeks here in Australia ( South Australia and Northern Territory ). Lots of geocaches and many sort of them too. We saw awesome places, weather was good all the time and people were friendly and polite. Caches were pretty similar like in our home country. Of course there were some exeptions. Nice and huge country!

Greetings from Finland!

Team ICE on a two week geocaching trip in Australia. Our main target was the Red Centre Experience at Alice Springs but of course we did some caching in other places too. We drove from Adelaide to Alice Springs and then back. We saw lots of interesting and beutiful places like opal mines at Coober Pedy, Ayers Rock and Kata Tjuta. Our rental travelled almost 6500km on gravel and tarmac roads. The weather was great, only on last day we got some rain.

All the caches logged as Team Ice, T-ice or Tice with kapeka, laalaa and Hiltsu. We had a great trip!

Today our trip continued from Port Augusta to Port Vincent. On a way we visited beautiful Weeroona Island, spend some time at Port Pirie, visited Moonta's himalayas and found many caches on the way.

Thanks for the cache and greetings from Finland!

While on an amazing 7000km roadtrip to the NT with Pacgirl we did a lot of sightseeing, and a little bit of caching along the way as well Smile. The aim was simply to drive north towards the Red Centre, do a couple of laps around Uluru (one by car, and one on foot), and then head back south to Victoria.
Day 13 had us continuing our journey southwards towards home via Mildura.
I was keen to find this cache as it is quite old. So we took a quick detour into Weeroona Island .
Taking note of recent sightings I carefully made my way to GZ where fortunately it was a quick and easy find.
Thanks, Liz and Bruce.
 
06-Oct-16
I took a lot of care here given the recent cache log entries, and luckily snake free for my visit. A lovely spot to visit.

In view of the above log note and the serious swooping I just received by a Maggie on the other side I think I'll leave the snake guarding this cache. Thanks anyway.

WARNING!!!!!!!!!! Large Black snake seen by local resident going into the rock pile at the GZ a lot of long grass around. Be very careful.
