Chewbacca72 and I are traveling during 4 months through Singapore, Australia and New Zealand. A few caches that are on our way should not be missing. This cache is one of them. Wow, what a view! Many thanks to Bushies2 for hiding. Best regards, searchersab

Zusammen mit searchersab geht es fr 4 Monate auf Reise, dabei kommen wir nach Singapur, dann an die Westkste Australiens, wir fahren die great ocean road von Sydney nach Adelaide, danach bereisen wir noch Nord und Sdneuseeland. Dieser Cache lag auf unserer Route, vielen Dank an den Owner Bushies2 frs Auslegen und Herfhren

Had a good hunt but no luck today

A quick rock scramble and log was soon signed. TFTC

Logging a day late, but Happy Fathers Day for yesterday.Our last day at Lake Argyle Weve enjoyed swimming and kayaking at the lake, wallowing in the infinity pool, and especially 9 days of yoga with Wendy TFTC

Found as described in the noteTFTCLieb ' s Gruessli #12625

TFTC.....nice park.

On our travels we found ourselves at lake argyle and took the opportunity to grab this cache, such a beautiful part of our country thanks for bringing us here

Found after a short search. Thank you.

Nice hide!Left a starry path tag.TFTC!

Found it after a bit of searching and climbing, it was good fun though.TFTH

WOO HOO - I found 'Have A Picnic' today while visiting the Lake Argyle area and checking out the Dam Wall. It took a bit to find and I also found a snake skin during my search. Thanks Bushies2 for setting up this cache. On tour with Kimberley Wild for 14 days with 18 muggles.PS: The Troll Dolls [TN6TR0] were with me on my adventures through the Kimberley Region.

No joy

A nice quiet spot for a picnic.Checked a few spots before reading previous logs, one of which pointed me in the right direction.SL TNLN TFTC

Made this one harder than it needed to be, venturing too far up the hill and to the left. On the way down I checked out a few more spots and there it was! Happy to make a find here. Tftc

Too many moving things and too scared to go hunting under rocks

Found it TFTC

Searched high and low. Not in the cards for us to find today.

We're staying in the caravan park but since we're travelling with geodog, only 1 of us could enjoy the boat tour. Today I opted for the walking tour instead. But boy, have I underestimated to walk out of here. After finding the cavhe... easily thankfully, I checked out a few freshies chilling below, hada picnic in the lovely park... now the daunting walk back to camp. At least the views are stunning and the effort worthwhile. Grabbed the TB. Tftc

Visited here 5 years ago and had a DNF, today I turned my frown upside down! Spotted a croc in the river and had the obligatory picnic.

Tftc

What a cool place got a picnic. TFTC

We have come to visit Lake Argyle and have just come back from doing a cruise so decided to head down here before we leave. With two of us looking it was a nice quick find.
Thanks for the cache

Tftc - found on a 12 month lap round Australia. We are from Tassie. Thanks for showing us this spot

Traveling north with richlink to Darwin and beyond enjoying the stunning scenery and finding a cache or two along the way. This place is breathtaking, thanks Bushies2.

Found it after a bit! Great hiding spot.

Pete climbed found it. Think I would’ve given up.

We searched quite for a long time but didn't manage to find the box.

A late log...
We enjoyed a picnic and the cache too !!!
BEWARE of the python in the men's toilet

Found it after awhile. Coordinates were off a bit. It’s not where you first think it is

Before we leave for Kununurra, we were impressed by the outlet of the hydroelectrical works and found the cache here, thanks

Sadly no joy on this one. Lots of big rocks. Lots of leaves and lots of poking and prodding.

With FiveTays-TT TFTC

Found with Slack1962 on our travels. TFTC

We saw a lot of DNF, but decided to have a go anyway. We found it just a few metres off the base directly up where coordinates take you (about 6m out from GZ) in a big rock next between 2 small (2m 1 is spikey) trees. Thanks

Third person to find this cache today. At 3pm. My NSW and Honey Bee coins visited.

Tftc

Well. Started heading to find this one. Seen a lot of people hadn’t so I was determined to locate. Took a bit boys gave up. So I started the search again. From the start. Looked up and spotted it. Not as far up as I thought (or where the phone had me). But cache is still in play. TFTC what a lovely spot to have lunch and chill before our cruise on the lake.

No luck today

Checked under every big rock.

Wasn’t able to find it, also a hard climb and was spiders everywhere

Bugger. Just out of reach with my dodgy ankle. Next time.

Climbing on very rough hillside no luck

TFTC

Thanks. No crocs today

Tftc well camo, easy find lovely spot to visit

Not sure why this had to be placed quite so far up the hill when there were plenty of more accessible spots below. Barneycache stood at the bottom watching me climb around in my jandals. Coords seemed fairly accurate in the end and cache was where you'd expect it to be. TFTC

Quick easy find thanks

Easy find. No big snakes there this time

Nowhere near where I was looking!! Read the recent finds!! Boyfriend had to swoop in and save the day

Mr M climbed all over the rocks but I spotted it as I was walking up. More like under the rock than in it, lol. A lovely area for a picnic. Mangoes were unripe and way too high to get anyway. Clearly everyone plucks the lower ones when the time is ripe. Not a croc in sight either, sadly. Was hoping to see a freshie. TFTC

Took the drive out to Lake Argyle today from where I’m working in Kununurra. Managed to snag the last few remaining caches out here. I really should have taken the time to complete them when I was here in 2019 knowing how close I was go them but alas it was great to return to this magical location.

Thanks for the find.

Co ords are a bit off here, luckily I spotted it walking/climbing up. Use hint or you’ll be searching for ages.

Nice hide. Lovely spot for a picnic. Left some stars for little kids and big kids alike

Find 6 of 14 on another full day of 4WDing, hiking and caching - cleaning up K-town and down to Lake Argyle and back.

What an interesting spot. The water is fairly exploding out of the outlet pipes at the moment. We drove to the end for the cache and made our way up the slope - too far as it turned out, the coords had us higher up than necessary. On the way back from GZ, Mr. O. made a painful error and didn't look up properly while wearing a cycling cap obscuring his vision - CLONK on the horizontal tree branch - laid him out for a little while with tweety birds and stars circling his bonce. Watch for that branch!

TFTC Bushies2!

Up from Geraldton TFTF. Such a lovely little spot

I had a lunch here and after grabbed this one, tftc!

Gotcha

Phone bouncing all over, so used Garmin GPS for a quicker find. Thanks for the Markndee Pathtag TFTC

1st find in W.A. would love to stay here but it is fully booked TFTC

Found with crack'n Lee lee and 2beez

First one in WA for this trip after an hour getting past the border.
Great little picnic area with good views of the outflow from the power station.
Nice easy find.
Thanks for bringing us here today Bushies2

Found, logged and left stars to shine when here in 2019.
When here today I only just realised I did not log the visit
Great spot snd camp grounds are getting better
Tftc

Tftc found with Crack n Lee Lee & 2As. So glad to be here in WA. Love the area

We are spending a few weeks travelling to some of Western Australia's warmer regions and grabbing a couple of the LGAs that I need.
out for a morning run from the nearby caravan park. It was easy running here but it's going to be all uphill on the way back. .
It was very pleasant down here in the early morning. Still shaded from the sun by the dam and hills and they had the sprinklers going so it was quite cool.
It took me a while to locate the cache but that was good because I needed a little rest before tackling the uphill run back.
This was find number 1 for the day.
TFTC Bushies2

Bit of a scramble up the rocks for a old guy. Found after a while staring me in the face.
Tftc

Clearly visible when in the right spot. Tftc

Saw a snake before we found the cache so be careful. Lovely little park. TFTC

2nd cache we have found, thanks Levis’s .

Thank you! I headed off on a two week group tour of the Kimberley, from Broome to Kununurra via the Gibb River Road, then back via the Great Northern Highway. Being an organised trip, all caching was opportunistic rather than planned.
This one took waaay longer than perhaps it should have to find. But it was an enjoyable walk to the cache, and it was interesting reading the plaques on the way about the dam and the lake.

Tftc

My first WA cache after leaving the state 4.5 years ago. On a big roadtrip back home from Hobart via Darwin through Kununurra. Staying at the Lake Argyle Resort. Absolutely worth the stay A couple of rocks were the GZ could have been but found it after a quick look around. TFTC

Unfortunately could not locate this one. Too Hot spent five mins but could not locate. Car said 42 when we got back in the car. Will have to wait until next we visit this region.

Great location on a beautiful day. Tftc

We ran from the store to here this morning. Much easier running there than back up the hill.

A quick find here.

TFTC Bushies2

Wow just blown away by this beautiful area. We jogged down so now a hot run back up the hill TFTC!!

After a few mins rock hopping we eventually found it TFTC

What a lovely peaceful spot. We sat & watched & listened to lots of little birds flitting through the trees. Thanks for bringing us here & TFTC Bushies2

Took a bit too find but found it in the end

We found it after some search.
TFTC

Quick and easy find. Thanks mate

Came for a swim on the lake side then visited the dam wall. All very quiet with corona virus lockdown. Lucky GEO-caching is well suited to social distancing. TFTC.

Almost beat us but did another walk through with a bit more attention to the hint and got him!! Great little cache!!!

Out here with my brothers after doing a trip up the Canning Stock route, very interesting. thanks, sorry for the late log.

Quick stop to find this cache after a bbq pontoon cruise on the lake

Sniff

What a great spot, worth spending the time around here searching, Tftc!
