Geocache Description:

This cache has been placed to primarily act as a transit cache for those wanting to move trackables to points further North and West e.g. NT and WA or into the Adelaide metropolitan area. Due to a an increased demand for accomodation the premises have undergone significant renovation and expansion. You are now looking for a large 5 Ltr Sistema container.


It is an excellent area to take a break for a quick leg stretch and the Geopets to do what nature demands they must. While close to the highway, it has parking well off the main road and the cache location is well concealed from passing vehicles.

Special note to all. You can do this cache the hard or easy way. Feedback has shown that a few have done it the hard way, not a great experience! I suggest you note the additional waypoints to make life easier. Repeated here for those who didn't put them in the GPSr:

Access: S34° 41.498 E 38° 34.099
Parking: S34° 41.506 E138° 34.060

I have borrowed this idea from 'Sturt-Newell TB Transit Lounge' GC136DA, thanks for the idea 'murf' The aim of the cache is to transit trackables out of the Adelaide area to caches placed further North that are specifically placed as exchange points. Examples of these exchange caches are 'At the Crossroad' GCPY7H and 'Backpacker TB & Coin Stopover' GC14HNK both located in the Port Augusta area. You can also use it as a staging point to get trackables coming inbound from North or West into Adelaide.

I am adopting the same rules as for 'Sturt-Newell TB Transit Lounge' which are, and I quote (once again thanks to 'murf'): "The only "rule" for this trackable cache is simple; "keep them moving"! Please, if you can help out any bugs/coins in the cache, take them with you. If there are any bugs/coins that have just been sitting in the cache and not moving, grab them and move them along somewhere! There are no: "only take a bug if you leave one" restrictions. This does mean that there will most likely not be any trackbables in this cache at times, but that is fine by me."

Within the cache are a number of bags labelled with the general destinations Northern Territory, Western Australia, Anywhere North and Adelaide Inbound. There are also blank cards and rubber bands for you to attach a brief note on your specific goal for the trackalbe if it does not have an Info Sheet attached. When taking a trackable please leave the bag. Thanks to SA ParrotHead for this idea.

In addition to it possibly containing trackables, it was originally stocked with a reasonable number of swaps.

Waypoints for the recommended vehicle access point and parking are included below.
