WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 84 - Geraldton to Euraday area via Northampton. Today was a steady drive north for half a day. I did a couple of caches as I left Geraldton and then managed to pick up a few more along the way. The best bit was a detour for the Ajana Binnu Trail Labs and caches. The old dam was very impressive and must have been quite impressive when the lid was intact. My roadside camp was a little noisy, but had some network coverage so I was able to keep a bit up to date. Hamelin pool for tomorrow, even less driving and only one cache to do.This cache was right outside the caravan park I have been staying in, and it was always a reserve cache, I just had to walk out to visit this morning before I left. It was nt too hard to see and the log was soon signed.Thanks for the cache The Keogh's48604.1 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & November 2024 Fenrislfr the Vnagandr A#537**Albida**

Di Morgan was in town and I was able to join them for a mornings caching around the suburbs of Geraldton

We visited some scenic locations, some that I hadn't visited before even though we have spent a fair bit of time in the area over the last few years.

Some caches were found relatively quickly but some were not. The last cache of the morning for me not too far from Di Morgans caravan park and a relatively quick find.

Thanks to all for placing these for us to find.

Back on the road again, heading north. Dongara to Geraldton
Stopped for a couple of caches along the highway & now camped at the caravanpark for four nights
Sight seeing around town & finding a few caches & doing part of ALs
A variety of caches found today in some very interesting locations.
This was the closest to the park took some time to find as I was looking for a T1.5, I couldn't have reached that cache.
Thankyou to the CO's for hiding this cache

On the hunting trail with SeasonedBird while in town for the wedding of the year. It’s a great day for caching.
TFTC The Keogh's

For anyone making Geo plans, do yourself a favour and visit Australia’s only current Geotour at Ballarat while it lasts: https://www.geocaching.com/play/geotours/ballarat-victoria

And for anyone that can travel to Longreach, Queensland, late September 2023, Google “QOGM” which is the Queensland Outback Geocaching Muster. You’ll have at least 8 or 9 days of pure geocaching fun with around 200 like minded people attending a mix of events and access to over 200 geocaches placed by the QOGM team. It’s not a Mega, it’s better.

Day two of a northern adventure with Mr’s Z, T & B and SirFancy.
Today was a day off two halves all around Geraldton.
The morning was spent walking around Point Moore and West End before retreating to the accommodation for lunch and a swim.
The afternoon was our numbers run for the day completing the series along Alexander Drive, grabbing a couple of mysteries and having a run around at the foreshore.
Today I finished with 25 finds, 7 adventure labs and 2 DNF’s.

Caching in the Greater Geraldton area today. Our intention for the day was to attack some power trails and do map cleanup around town.

Quick grab with a hint of a previous finder. Cheers The Keogh's! Big Grin

Thank you! On a road trip to Exmouth and back. Happy to find the cache. I'd got into town later than expected, so I pitched the tent, cooked dinner and looked at caches for tomorrow. Only to find a cache just metres from my tent! An after dinner walk had that sorted.

Up from Perth for a wet but enjoyable camping trip this weekend Smile Staying at the nearby Belair park so headed out for a walk this morning before the rain got too heavy. This cache was very close by and a surprisingly quick and easy find. Nano is no longer but the replacement was still placed very sneakily. But my eagle eyes spotted it straight away Smile Luckily no buses came along (I’ve had that happen before!). All ok here, TFTC

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
 
12-Jul-20
Confirming with original CO but as others have suggested this is a new bus shelter and bench when compared to the background of old photos. Cache is highly unlikely to have been moved to the new one!!

UPDATE - original CO confirms this is a different shelter and thus cache is most likely gone.
 
12-Jul-20
Have replaced this cache due to new bus stop being put in.
Happy caching
 
10-Jul-20
This surely is a brand new bus stop and so we didn't look for a cache here as it's a bit unlikely it survived the transformation.

Couldn't find anything.
