Dry Creek is not always dry. At this time of the year it can occasionally turn into a raging torrent.
Dry creek is a whole system of creeks. The Dry Creek wetlands are composed of many separate sections running from the eastern edge of the suburbs to the sea outlet of Dry Creek. They form part of the storm water management system for the City of Salisbury and the City of Port Adelaide Enfield and are connected to numerous drains that run across the Adelaide Plains including this part of Dry Creek, as well as being the outflow point for storm water pipes. Some of the wetlands have been extensively landscaped but have only limited public access. Dry Creek rises in the Tea Tree Gully Range , near Glenara Vineyard collecting many tributaries on its way through Yatala Vale, passing through Elder Green to Wynn Vale dam. Following in close proximity to Golden Grove road, passing through properties of early settlers. Several large tributaries flow through Fairview Park, Banksia Park, Redwood park and Ridgehaven and meet Dry Creek near Drumminor on Golden Grove road, through Modbury North and Modbury where a tributary from Tea Tree Gully and another from Anstey Hill area joins near McIntire and North East roads. Another tributary comes from Hope Valley , Highbury area and joins Dry Creek near Kelly road. These tributaries collect a great amount of water and by the time Dry Creek reaches Grand Junction road, it is here it takes a sharp turn and one can see where the force of the water has eroded the banks. Dry Creek travels out of the Tea Tree Gully council area through Valley View, Walkley Heights , Pooraka, Mawson Lakes through the wetlands and finally out to sea at the Barker Inlet This cache is on a fairly new footbridge that has replaced an older one along a section of Dry Creek that follows Golden Grove Road. A network of Footpaths and cycle paths have been added along this part of Dry creek. You are looking for a 3.5 litre container.
