WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 129 - Katherine Day 2. The temperature again rose quickly in the morning. I am still recovering, but I decided a short trip for fuel and a cache would be ok. I was soon back inside and resting again. It was a bit further than expected, but the cache was found at an old memorial that might have been harder access when the railway line went past here. Today a very quick find and not much sign reading as it is completely bleached.Thanks for the cache territoryenrights48981.1 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 100 Finds Achievement A#64**Albida**

I see dead people.Freddo and e.gregory1 were heading up the middle of Australia following Stuart's well trodden route. We were travelling in air conditoned comfort and style. No stale food. No camels to carry water. We were leaving the cold winter for the northern season.Today was the day to find this cache. Today is the tenth day of Augustus Caesar's Month in the wonderful year of twenty twenty four. We found your cache container and added some inky stuff to the paper sheet or note pad you have supplied for a log book or scroll. The cache container and log book or scroll were in good condition. It was so hot. No wind today.With the log signed and the cache replaced it was time to leave. Onwards to the next cache. Woot, that is not to far.I would like to show my respect and acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Land, and their continuing connection to it. I wish to pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past, present and emerging.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

Wow if it wasnt for this cache we wouldnt have realized the graves were here. We had been out to Katherine Gorge in the morning and after a helicopter flight and a good hike we decided a loop of Katherine to explore and some park and grab type caches were on the cards. We didnt mind a bit of a walk but we were pretty buggered and the humidity is a shock for these weary South Australians. We always find it interesting to read the headstones of our early settlers as their lives were so different and darn tough compared to ours. Thety seem to be made of much sturdier stuff than us.
Thanks territoryenrights for the cache.

Lovely to visit this historic site. We have a few days here in Catherine and really enjoying exploring as much as possible.
We replaced the clip lock bag to keep this one going a little longer.
Log signed.

Catching up on some late logs, now that I have time, while travelling.

We are on the road travelling up through central Australian and down the coast of WA. I hope to grab a few caches along the way.

This was a quick find once at GZ.

Thanks territoryenrights for placing this cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy finding it.

Travelling again with ilook4geo and heading north to pick up some of the caches around the Katherine region. This was one we found after a quick search, the log was signed and all was replaced as found. Thanks go to territoryenrights for placing this cache.

Hunting along with goingplaces2 and picking up caches they have not done before. Enjoyed each discovery and adding names to each log where possible. TFTC.

After attending the mega in Townsville we are now heading for Darwin. First a couple of nights in Katherine at the Riverview cp. This was one of the caches we targeted and found. Thanks for arranging the hide.
 
02-Nov-21
My second trip up here in three weeks, but only a night in Katherine before heading west. With a 7am departure, I made time for a quick pre-drive grab and this one was nice and close to the digs. [^]

I took the long way around as it turned out and after recent rain, the hire car got a chunk of mud on the tires and up the sides. Ah well... Big Grin At GZ, I pulled the cache from the first place I looked and quickly added my name to the log. Smile

Interesting that I lived in Kathering for 3.5 years in the late 90's (Yes, the family endured the 98 floods during that time) and never knew this site existed. That's why I love this game, it's always slipping in the surprise locations.

Thanks for the cache territoryenrights.

Katherine seems to have a few caches at grave sites and I love cemetery caches. This one was found quickly and easily. Someone has had a rum party by these grave sites by the look of the empty bottles here.

In Katherine on an unusually cool day... just warm enough for a dip in the hot springs. The town was looking fresh and green considering it was the dry season. Having visited many times this little cemetery was a new addition to our knowledge of Katherine. Fascinating. Left a few pathtags.

What I love about caching is when it takes me to places and teaches me things I would never find otherwise. This is a perfect example. Thank you for placing this cache at such a nice little piece of history.

Interesting tiny little cemetery that is tucked away here along the highway. Would not know its there unless you have a reason to go and look, but there is a sign explaining the area. TFTC

We had pulled over to try and google some fishing spots, so while he was doing that, I looked up some caches, this one looked like something we would be interested in, turns out it was! Another spot off the grid that should really be sign posted. TFTC.

A quiet day in Katherine as we prepare to start travelling south east on our way to visit the grandkids in Cairns then Weipa. It has been a long trip since the Red Centre Experience over Easter as we have visited the west coast , traversed the Gibb River Road and I squeezed in 2 week trip to Cambodia and Vietnam.
A really relaxed day with 5 quick easy finds. Thanks to all the COs for placing these caches for us to find. All logs were signed, mostly as SG as I so often do in small caches to save space.

Found at 12:13:00 PM. Heading North to escape the cold weather. Great to find caravan accessible caches along the way.

Thanks territoryenrights.Smile

We decided to stay the night in Katherine, mainly to do the Cutta Cutta caves tour and then see how many other local caches we could locate whilst exploring the area.

We had a little bit of trouble trying to find the way in here without having to push our way through the spear grass but that was sorted out in the end and we arrived at this really interesting area. Reading the sign the record keeping of the day was a little less accurate than today's standards. There is no way known that we would have identified this as a cemetery unless we had been told and definitely one of the smaller ones we have visited. The well hidden cache was a nice easy find in a logical spot for a geocachers and our name has now been added to the log.

Thanks territoryenrights for showing us this fantastic location, a favourite point from us.
