Geocache Description:


This cache replaces the one that was just down the road for the silos

 

this is another cache in my silos series. 6 of 110,


The gateway to the state’s mid-North region, Tarlee is the commercial and service centre for a mixed but predominantly wheat farming region. From the late 1860s, Tarlee has been a clearing centre for grain and a local buyer, Joseph Nock, set a record by stacking 65,000 bags of wheat. Modern methods of storing grain finally came to the town in 1963 when the first silo was built. An hour’s drive north of Adelaide, Tarlee was also a major marshalling transport point when the Kapunda and Burra copper mines were at their production peak
