This was our last morning in the Margaret river area, and with the wife let curled up in bed I headed off with a goal of hitting the challenge series up near Dunsbourgh. I took off at about 5am and found all bar I in the series that required a tott I didnt have on board.After finding a safe place to park I was soon at ground zero with cache in hand and pen ready to record my name for prosperity. Cache was safely returned and off onto the next adventure.A big thanks to the cache owner for making this cache available to be found by like minded individuals.Cheers
An easy find by hollowfrog, so while she did the signing duties I took some TB pics. TFTCsigned log as gLTB - Thin Blue line hitchin' a ride on Big Red.
Once again out with The Machman for our 11th WA Goes Big event. Left Perth early this morning and started cache hunting just South of Busselton. A good array of hides and excellent weather. TFTC
WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 51 - Bunbury Day 3. Day trip to Margaret River via Bussellton. I went a bit further today and visited some old favorite spots and a few new ones on a longish day. I had morning tea in Bussellton and a walk along the fore shore. Next was the push to The Margaret River Chocolate Factory, and big highlight of the area. I had to be very restrained. Next was onto Margaret River itself for lunch and a few Labs. I even managed a bit of a trail of puzzles that had been part of the pre trip solving. I ended the day with another stop in Bussellton for a few more labs when it was not as busy. I even went a short way out the Jetty. I was home just after dark for dinner n the van.I was on my way home now. I skipped this one on the way south as it was on the wrong side of the road. I was happy to find an excellent hint and the cache was very quickly located and signed.Thanks for the cache richlink47764.23 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 2014 Fathers of Rocketry A#298**Albida**
Nice quick find here with the help of the phone camera. What a great truck! Had a peek into the ajar drivers door.... it was like looking back in time. Tftc
A welcoming spot to pull off the highway and stretch the legs. An easy find here with the hint. Thanks for the cache
Wanted to pick up some caches while on holiday and this was in a very convenient spot. Driving from the dentist in Vasse to the chocolate factory this was a perfect drive-by cacheIt was a little difficult to get the log out of container without tweezers. The log book needs to be put back spine facing outThanks for placing it
Nice little pit stop for drink refills, easy park and grab at night with no muggles around. TFTC
Enjoying a week in Eagle Bay with my Dad. Beautiful part of the south. Thanks to the COs for placing these caches and adding to my week away.
What a great visual

Cache in good condition.
This is my 3430 find.

As I walked out the door this morning Mr B asked me to take his new costume mask caching and grabbing some photos along the way.
This seemed like the perfect opportunity to crack it out and I’m sure passing motorists thought I was a little crazy.
Took a few minutes to finally locate this cache and get our names on the log but we got there in the end.

With the family booked in to head out to see a show I had the day to myself and gave SirFancy a call and arranged for a day out running about the South West.
We hit up Cowaramup, Busselton, Capel & Bunbury chasing cache and labs along the way.
A long and successful day in the car had me collecting 9 finds, 16 adventure labs and 0 DNF’s.

G’day richlink, unfortunately I wasn’t able to find your cache today (Saturday 6/8/2022). Cheers for the hunt anyway!
Really not my day today. A lot of DNFs. As I was on a time restriction I ended up having to throw the towel in.

Today TaurusSix and I both took an early mark from work, mid afternoon, so we could make the most of the weekend we had planned in Margaret River . We set off wanting to get there before dark therefore setting ourselves only a few geocaching stops on the way through. The weather stayed onside it was mild and overcast.
This was our first geocache stop of the afternoon. The traffic was quite heavy so the hardest bit was pulling off the road. When we saw the host object and we thought we might be here for a while . As luck would have it , it only took a moment or two before we had cache in hand. Once signed and replaced the difficult bit was getting back onto the road , waiting for a gap in the traffic. TFTC

Must have driven past this one a few times without stopping - today was the day. TFTC!
I was picked up by a guy driving from Capel to Margaret River, and we did a quick stop here so I could check off the LGA of Busselton. 8 for 8 on finds today. Off to Margaret River and then to Augusta
Heading down to Margs for a long weekend and as usual added in a few caches along the way to break up the journey. This was one that I stopped off at today. Parked up very close by then wandered over to the host. After a brief moment of horror when I walked into a spider web (we don't get along), I started checking out likely spots on the vehicle. Cache was very quickly spotted thanks to info on the cache page and previous comments. This isn't a venue I have explored previously so another one to add to the list for a future trip All ok here today, TFTC
Found this one on a weekend trip to yallingup for a friend's wedding we had some spare time in between a thought we would find a few cashes it was a wonderful weekend and seen many things TFTC
Not an easy find with so many sets of eyes looking. Probsty got it eventually.

Nice easy find. Thanks for the hint and previous cache description in activity. Cache in good order. Tftc
Found by Facitman and Mrs Facit on our SW-WA-GA at 1515
Another cache that we've driven past a few times in the last couple of days. Mrs F made a careful stop and we admired the red truck for a few minutes before carefully searching what we thought might be a spider's paradise. The cache reveled itself quite quickly so we wrote our log and continued our journey.
Thanks Richlink

Stealth mode activated, pretending to take pictures and selfies as our decoy while we searched. Helpful to see the comment it is a black magnetic mint container, not the nano we thought. Great cache and great wine
It's not a nano, it's a black mint tin. Magnetic. It was on the ground, now it's tucked again. TFTC
Had totally forgotten to log this cache after finding it on holidays with Harrowang - had lost the piece of paper and just found it while having a spring clean up! TFTC!
From Wangaratta, Victoria to Western Australia. Family - 4 adults, 1 tweenager - 2 Geocaching Teams - Harrowang and Beavar - on holidays for a week. Day 2 - Busselton to Cape Leeuwin and back up to Sorrento Beach in Perth. Be from Beavar found it right where she said it would be! SL at 11.33am #6331 Nice truck. TFTC richlink
pug002 found it 15/1/2019 on our trip to Cow Town for square dancing. TFTC richlink
Had to quickly pull over the car but great quick find. Took some photos in front d the vineyard too. TFTC!
Hi there richlink - we decided on a day trip to Margaret River today and to include a stop for some Venison on the way back. This cache was a quick find along the way. The container and log are in good condition - SL. Thanks to richlink for this cache - our find #6027.
Woohoo found it!! Had a quick look a few weeks ago but took busy and raining so decided to leave it for another day. Great old truck TFTC
Our plan today was to find caches along the beautiful Dunsborough Coast, attend the CITO event, find an Earthcache to earn our Souvenir , then finishing the day with taking lady Moo Moo to Cow Town. What a great day , loved seeing all of the WA Goes Big 2018 flags on cars and meeting many Geocachers at different hides. SL TFTC

Found yesterday with a group of fellow geocachers as part of the amazing race. WAGB 2018 Tftc
Found while out and about with Luna Maya on the WAGB18 weekend. Easy find. SL. TFTC.
TFTH. Have admired this for many many years. Great to stop by while on a hunt with WA Goes Big. Thanks to the DB’s for their help.
Every year we have wanted to attend the WAGB event and each time, for various reasons, it was something we just could not seem to achieve ... that was until this year at least With the date planned for the 2018 event being close to the school holidays, we were determined to make it this year.[^] We had a great time catching up with old friends, making some new ones, and finding some terrific caches while we were in the area.
As part of the event, we participated in the Amazing Race activity and searched for this cache along the way. The cache was found easily and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our way.
Thank you richlink for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy
