TFTC. We have been past here many times but finally stopped today as there were no vehicles parked. Nice quick find
WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 54 - Bunbury to Fremantle via Mundijong. I did some roadside caches along the highway before it became freeway. I had two more counties on the radar, so I took a bit of a detour and found a fantastic little village Mundijong. From there it was back on main roads and from Armidale it was all built up. I tried a reserve for some series caching, but it was very hard going off trail and I struggled. After setting up, I headed into Fremantle itself for dinner and then I went for a bit of a walk and managed three more before heading home for the night.Things started smoothly with several finds before things started getting difficult. The main problem was getting back on the road as the traffic got heavier all morning.Thanks for the cache WA K Team47864.9 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 2008 Northern Territory GC A#113**Albida**
Stop stopped to switch drivers found that there was a cache about 50 metres away and so we had to find it. TFTC
Caching around Perth and the west coast for a few weeks. TFTC. Nice to have this place empty today after driving past many times.
Achilles had a few hours with which he could go treasure hunting. It was a frustrating day as there was an outside chance he would get to his 1000th find, but fell several short.
A quick find made a nice change of pace. The only difficulty for our hero was waiting for a couple of Trojans to leave the area.

Out with the Cockburn Boys on a night run down deep SoR. This was one of the stop offs for the night.
Quick P&G as it started to rain as the cold front started to pass over. Cheers WA K Team!

I've driven past this one too may times on the way home from work. TFTC nice hide
Found it, nice little hide! I would have had trouble without the hint. My phone had about 3 metres away all the time
I had been down to complete over half the shipwreck series and was on my way home feeling a bit tired, cold and lacking in energy after canoeing about 18km. But it thought i still have energy to grab this cache which i have been past so many times. I pulled and stopped jumped out of the car and walked to gz and grabbed the first thing i saw and bingo. Signed the log and on my way again.I found this cache in under 30 seconds from getting out of the car. Have seen something elsewhere. Thanks for the cache WA K team and making me stop here and grab your cache. This made for 31 finds and 0 dnf's for the day.
A quick find with friends on the first day of Spring (Rainbow Scjaz, TruSeekTrio and Bartman's Boyz) on our way up to do an Escape Room challenge. Great cache! Thank you sl
Found this one with Scjaz, Bartman Boys and Truseek Trio on our way to an Escape Room find. Tftc
Quick find after the family with the car and caravan left - they probably wondered what we were doing...
We have seen some hides like this one before - well constructed to last

Heading back to the city from working near Mandurah, decided to make a stop for the cache. TFTC WA K Team.
Driven past this one so many times as it tends to come up pretty quick. Kept an eye out for it today and pulled into the rest bay making a quick find of the cleverly hidden container once at GZ.
WA K Team I found your cache at 3:32pm, this was the 2nd of 2 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 4083. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

So wish we had our bikes with us (from QLD) as all the caches that are on the Bike Way are making me go green with envy. Quick grab for this cache TFTC
Thanks for the hide. Found a clever hide after a short search. On our way to Perth to see some of the fringe festival.
TFTC! Spent a hit Saturday afternoon down in the peel and Mandurah region soaking up the sun and the local attractions with Cravo10, Itskate and muggle wife. We had a lovely lunch in halls head before exploring some of the beaches followed by a small bunch of caching on the way home along the highways and freeway to round out a long hot day!
Was probably better being down in Mandurah than watching the Aussies get pumped in the cricket!! Looks like we're gonna need a record run chase to beat the South Africans!!
Looking forward to our day trip a bit further down this way tomorrow. Thanks to the local COs

Driving pass this one every day in the dark. Today it was still daylight so parked my near the GZ and after a bit of a look around had a container in my hand. Tftc
I was in the area today, and so I decided that I would try tackle this cache. I stopped here on my way back to Perth and, after parking my car nearby, I walked the short distance to GZ. I searched for a while before finding the sneaky cache.
WA K Team, I found your cache ‘Heavy Stop North’ today. It was the fifth find of five finds today with zero DNF’s and brings my total count to 603. The cache was found in a good condition so I signed the log book and replaced it as I found it. Thanks for the hide and for bringing me to this location.

Found it after a bit of a search. Ingenious hide. A bit higher than I thought. SL TFTC
In a hurry to get to Perth so only grabbed this cache on the way since basically right on the freeway.
Only had a couple of cyclists go past then I was free to have a good look. Thankfully only took a few minutes and had cache in hand
Very clever hide
will have to remember this one when in similar surroundings again

Last find of the daytime after caching in Mandurah. I tried one, Spider Jockey07 found it in another. TFTC
Originally logged under family name of clan-wallace now slowly transitioning to new name
We were supposed to meet up here but geohubby rang to say he had got it just as I had arrived at clearing out my nanos#4. So he is a bit ahead of me, strange that as he is in the car & I am on my bike. TFTC
Heading north with my tour guide Mistraluna, she pointed this one out as a must-do. And I was not to be disappointed. Thanks WA K Team
A quick trip to Baldivis to look at a car (1950 Chevy) and as we were early managed to grab a few caches on the way. Nice hide. TFTC
Woo hoo another find. On the way to mandurah we noticed this one, and it was a quick stop on our way home. Geo H had it worked out in short time. Thanks.
Having stayed in Bunbury for the night and NYE, I headed back home along the SWH to grab as many as I could. I only lasted until just after Burekup when I gave it in and decided to head home and grab them another day. I made my way back along the Forrest Hwy instead and picked up the odd one here and there. I enjoy finding this style of cache, and was pleasantly surprised to find this one along the way. TFTC WA K Team
I have lost count the amount of times I have driven past and thought .....I must stop and grab that cache!!
Well today was the day and I have to admit that it took me longer than it should have as I had something else in mind on what it was........damn mindsets.
Anyway, I found it eventually and went DOH!!
Lucky for me there were no other cars or trucks around to wonder what the heck I was doing.
TFTH WA K Team.......I am happy to finally have a smiley here

On the way to Mandurah we missed seeing the cache on the other side of the road, but not this one on the way home. A quick find after looking where it wasn't (without the GPS), so SL before continuing on our way. Thanks to WA K Team for the cache.
Found this one on way home from Mandurah. Was expecting same as other truck stop but pleasantly surprised. Nice one.
Very busy truck stop. I used my bike as cover by leaning it against the cache place. Today I could retrieve the cache easily thanks to Mr Luna Maya. I thought about ducking across to grab the other one but chickened out. TFTC WA K Team.
