After an early morning meetup with a group of cachers heading to the Northern Flinders, we left Munno Para and headed north. I had Bradley with me and we were travelling in convoy with Skippy, Freddo, O’cholio, Burtons, Wackys, Parrotheads, Nibs, Team Waldron and Adrian Mc for the geocaching event in the Flinders, “We Didn’t Start the Fire”.
Our travels took us through Riverton, Burra, Hallett, Terowie, Peterborough to Yunta under threatening skies. It wasnt until we hit Yunta that the moisture started to fall although it wasnt much. It became apparent once we left Yunta on the dirt that they had quite a bit of rain prior to our arrival as the road was mud. This proved to be fun for the first 10 kms when it dried out and we were then hit by a dust storm followed by more rain.
We arrived at Chambers Gorge a little later than expected, meaning that the climb to the top of Mt Chambers would have to wait till morning. As soon as we set up camp, the rain left and we had a magnificent sunset on Mt Chambers coupled with some rainbows – spectacular.
We spent the night around the campfire solving the problems of the world.
Caches for the day:
GC1KKBF – Peterborough or Petersburg?
GCA562 – Desert Dice …/ Roadkill …
