In Margs for the weekend, staying at the RAC Nature Park so I took the opportunity to grab some of these caches before the rain, that was forecast set in.

Some of the finds proved a little hard in the afternoon Twilight

Enjoyed the walk and the history lessons from the signs posted along the paths..

Wow, this one took me some searching as the colour of the can perfectly blended in with the ambient light at the time I was searching. But found it we did and our name in in the log.

Thanks for the cache the_lazy_hiker. Found at 10:53:00 AM it was cache number 3097 for me and was number 12 in my run of 16 finds and 0 DNFs for this holiday's geocaching effort.

Cheers Cool

Thanks for the hide and The Lazy Hiker

Day 4 exploring the picturesque SW with megawat60, now riding the geobikes through the Wharncliffe woodland. We left the bikes, enjoyed the walk except for the last 20 or so m off the track as the way in has got overgrown in the last 10 years, including blackberries. Was happy when he spotted it! Thanks for this cache lazy hiker!
 
26-Jan-19
Awesome! Tftc
 
24-Nov-18
A beautiful day for a hike in the woods looking for caches. This was a fun one. Took a bit of a search but after reading an old log that said it was a ways off the trail I followed the coordinates and it took me right to the cache. Sometimes you just have to trust the GPS.

Thanks for this fun ammo can in the woods The Lazy Hiker!

Found after longish search as gps took us away from GZ. Caching today with The X-Trailers. TFTC

TFTC! Had a lovely couple of days away with the Geowife, which ironically Cravo10 and ItsKate had booked into the same town as us for the weekend.

With strict instructions on how many caches I could get from the geowife it was a bit like pulling teeth to grab some caches and had to trade off buying a few extras for her to get "just one more"!! This would have to be some of the most expensive caching I've done for some time!!

We were lucky as the Geowife loves a sleep in some pre breakfast caching is allowed, which saw us renting bikes from the hair marron on Brussel highway (highly recommended) and tackling a bunch of the rails to trails series and the caches around wharncliffe mill, which was a huge amount of fun.

This weekend has got me extremely interested in completing the cape to cape track, so we may be back down this way sooner than we otherwise would have. It was a great weekend with some lovely views, awesome wineries, some breweries and who can't resist the olive oil and chocolate factory!! Thanks to the local COs

So a little get away down south was on order just a short stay to enjoy the tourist attractions or just some of our favourite food and beverage places. I will be honest B12 told me he was heading down and I thought a great time to catch some caches with him down there.
It didn't take long for the partners to soon see through the "coincidence" however luckily the 2 ladies love a sleep in and made for enough time to find a handful in the mornings.
 
02-Oct-16
Great walk
 
01-Oct-16
TFTC, it was a bit rainy but we enjoyed the walk. Nice cache.

We took the most direct track to this cache from Wharnclift mill 3 cache. I wouldn't advise accessing this one on a bike as the track was rather rough and it involved a water crossing. After finding the cache, took a more sensible way out.
 
05-Jun-16
With a group of 10 kids, we found it
 
05-Jun-16
Good find
 
03-Jun-16
I love how this game just pulls you off the beaten track occasionally ...this cache did just that but with perfect co-rods we were onto it pretty quick..thanks Eric and Sonja, a beauty.

Dropped off Pompom...

We noticed that a lot has changed since we created this cache. A lot of trees went down and the cache is not hidden in the original location anymore. We will come back and review the cache and description.

Great spot and find after a fantastic geo-challenge weekend family event by Nature Play WA.

Down in Margaret River doing some preliminary work for a Nature Play event proposed for the Wharncliffe Mill in May this year.

Whilst out and about we grabbed some caches.

Nice quick find whilst out on a walk around the mill area.

Thanks eric.sonja for the cache.

Was tricky! Dense bush so trickier with younger kids. Great cache though and well worth it!

At the moment I'm on a work and travel backpacking year through the world. Most of the time I'll spend in Australia and I'm trying to solve my 365 days of caching challenge during this trip. The chance of having a moving home zone should be takes, as it will make the challenge so much easier.

While staying on the Wharncliffe Mill camping ground I made a short walk around the forest around.

It took me quite a while to find the right way to this cache. This was probably more time consuming, than the search for the box itself. The way via the course of the stream is not the best idea..

But anyways, found the container, which is in a good condition.

TFTC and greetings from Germany

Rode the Pines MTB track then detoured off on the walk trails to this one...no walkers were harmed though Wink...very wet and overgrown but a wonderfully secluded and tranquil spot. Had to widen the search a bit and use the old cache radar but got it in the end. Thanks for the well stocked cache, I do love an ammo tin.
