Grabbed this guy after trekking out to Sabina Source. A successful trip into the forest. Tftc
A drive thru the park looking for wildflowers and a cache. Found in good condition thank you.
Final day of the Busso weekend and just picking up a few more in the area before heading off towards home. Had my sights set on the ABBA series along the road, but first was keen to pay the unloved 'Sabina Source' hide a visit, and that would take me right past this GZ. A quick park and grab here, everything is ok. TFTC
I needed just one more cache before calling it a day. This looked promising. The drive was over quickly, but only after another missed turn.
I carefully drove down the last road to the cache. I turned around first and parked such that another vehicle could pass should on turn up (none did though).
The cache itself was found very soon after commencing the search.
Final photos were taken and it was time to get ‘home’.

Wasn't sure how to get to this one till I found the side road... bit of off roading adventure!
We’re trying to get to 300 caches today so we decided to do a drive to Busselton and this is the first one we found, TFTC
Finally our girls weekend has arrived Kapelula, Meme28, Geotrekka and I C Nothing are heading south with four full days of caching to celebrate some birthdays and geo milestones. We have been puzzling like crazy in preparation so our aim is to find those caches and everything else that takes our fancy. Maybe even a challenge or two. Signed log as Kameingt.
Nice quick cache before starting the Holden series.

Hi there cul8rr.
We found your cache **"Direct Hit 2 !!!!!"** at 12:49:00 PM today. (This makes our find count 23682).
We decided to attempt some caches in and around the Nanup area today. We thoroughly enjoyed our walks and the scenery & found 2 caches today & DNF'd 2.
Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thank you cul8rr for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

Having been camping in Busselton for a few days, we decided it was time to pick up a few more caches in Capel and then continue checking out a lot more of the vehicle caches out of town. Our aim, along with ilook4geo, was to do a round trip and finish by going back to Busselton by a different route.
This was a nice easy find found as per the info on the cache page. Log was signed and replaced. Job done. Thanks to cul8rr for placing this cache.

Busselton and surrounds have given us a lot of caches to find, together with goingplaces2. Today was a good day and we found a total of 50 caches. Some were harder that others to locate and took longer, but all logs were signed as required. Thanks to each CO.
Slight detour as the job at the mine site up the road wasn’t ready to go yet. Geo’s are a great way of filling in time when there are delays with work. TFTC
My GPS had difficulty pointing me to GZ, close to giving up and logging DNF, but tried one more spot and BINGO there it was nicely hidden from passing muggles. Thank you cul8rr
Day 5 of our visit to WA for the WAGB18 event in Dunsborough. Today involves travelling to Manjimup and back to Busselton via Capel. Amazed with many different wildflowers we saw today! Many thanks to the COs who have placed and maintained their caches along the highways and byways that we will be travelling in the next week or so.
Day 5 of the trip to WA and doing a round trip from Busselton to Manjimup and Capel and back to Busselton and visiting other villages, towns and country sides on our way. Thank you to all the CO's for placing their various caches and taking us to places we may not have visited, if not for geocaching. TFTC
Had the track to ourselves so it had to be done. Quick find and in good condition. TFTC.
Headed out early with Neva2old to attack the Holden series and a few along the way, happy to say we came up trumps here and walked away with a smilie TFTC
What better to do with some holidays than a road trip? We headed South for two days to help clear the map in preparation for the WAGB event later this year.
Using Busselton as our base for the trip, we did a full days caching from Perth to Busselton on day 1 and made it into Busselton just before the rain set in which washed out our night caching plans for the evening.
Day 2 saw us cleanup the last of the Busselton caches we had on the list and head to Dunsborough to grab a few around there and some along the back roads.
Was a great little trip with many a good sight.
Thanks to the local COs for their caches.

Headed down to Northcliffe for the long weekend and found a number of caches on the way and in the area.
Took a while as the coordinates were about 15m out for us.
Thanks cul8rr for the hide.

This cache had me working extremely hard. I don't have a car that can go off road so I broke out the mountain bike. After finding the nearby cache and decided to ride on to this one. I struggled through soft sand and up hills that I thought were never going to end. I had the sweat pouring and spiders dangling from my helmet whilst the kangaroos scattered.
Quick find at GZ and more sweating and panting to get back to my car. TFTC

Hi there cul8rr - We found Direct Hit 2 !!!!! today - our find # 3579. SWMBO and I are on a short holiday of a few weeks duration but today we were heading towards Bunbury. The cache was found quickly and the container and log are both in good condition. SL. Thanks to cul8rr for the cache.
We saw our first roos in WA as we approached the gz. Not sure our rental car was meant for this road. We miss our Ford Escape.

In the South West for a couple of days with my Geoson XpertCach3r and the objective of completing the Holden Series and a few others. Had a little disaster first up when we arrived near the first cache and the GPSr batteries were flat. A quick look around for the charging cord and we were away.
This was a great days caching with 93 finds in total, and 2 DNFs. A wide variety of cache containers, very accurate co-ordinates and good company made the day even better.
Thanks to all cache owners for their efforts. Apologies for the generic logs.

Kyzabra, AlliedOz, Krabiboy and I had hatched a plan many moons ago to head away on a caching trip and this area fitted the bill for us! We met up with Granett on the Friday night too! We had a fantastic couple of nights away grabbing caches and telling yarns along the way. We met up with a few other cachers, roasted marshmallows and had an ale or two which was also good fun.
Apologies for the generic log and I will add favourite points to the ones I enjoyed the most.

A detour between the Holden series and the WAGB arrow brought us here.
This weekend away has been in the planning for some time. Jinta29, AlliedOZ, Krabiboy and I decided a trip south was in order and Granett was a late inclusion.
We camped the night prior at Ironstone and headed out today with the main goal of knocking over the Holden series then picking up some others in the area. This was one !!
Sorry about the generic log, but there is a camp fire and "refreshments" to get back to
cul8rr - Kyzabra found your cache Direct Hit 2 !!!!! on 19/09/2015 11:20 am. This is my find #3850 and find #88 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Kyzabra, Allied Oz, Jinta29 and I had been planning an assault on the Holden series for quite a while, so we made a weekend of it, came down Friday and camped at Ironstone for two nights. We were joined by Granett and headed out today with the main goal of collecting the Holden series and a few other caches around the area. This was one that we managed to find. TFTC cul8rr
Was fortunate to discover a couple of weeks ago that a plan was being hatched to tackle the Holden series and was lucky enough to join Kyzabra, jinta29, KrabiBoy and AlliedOz for one of those memorable geocaching days. It was a bit squishy in the back seat so we devised a rotation plan that seemed to favour some more than others.
Nevertheless it was great day interspersed with some spirited banter. The series in total took about 3hrs 50mins to complete. That done it was time to head into Busso for some sustenance but of course we had to pick up a cache or two on the way.
It was pretty easy to spot GZ here where AlliedOz made the quick find.
cul8rr I found your cache at 11:21am, this was the 87th of 111 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 2281. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

The plan to tackle this area down south was hatched over a couple of weeks and along with Kyzabra, jinta29, KrabiBoy and Granett. I tagged along and had a ripper weekend picking up this geocache along with a large series and many other caches in the area over a couple of days.
Please excuse the generic log, refer to Kyzabra, jinta29, KrabiBoy or Granetts logs for the days details.
I have a logging problem it has been 561 days since I found this cache or Or 1 year, 6 months, 14 days, sorry about that.
TFTC a great time was had by all, only 1 DNF all weekend.

On the way home from the Holden series and I was already soaked to the bone so I thought one more cache will be ok.
Made a nice quick find, signed log, replaced and headed home for a nice warm shower and dry clothes

Stopped to log a find here on a glorious afternoon while exploring the area. Thanks for the cache.
Beautiful bushland, shrubs were in flower and everything glistening in the early morning sun. Thanks cul8rr.
Spent our afternoon caching before resting up for WAGB 2015 tomorrow. Found this one. TFTC
Family fun geocaching day. 300km , plenty of big puddles to go through off road, rain, sun, spiders and more. Thanks for the cache.
Had planned an early start today but wasn't meant to be. Headed southwards first, following our noses from one cache to the next. Made a slight detour off of the highway to grab this one. Thanks for the cache cul8rr
This was our first taste of gravel road driving for the day - plenty more was to follow. No problems finding the cache. Thanks for the hunt cul8rr.
On an exploratory drive to check out where the Secret Witcher MTB trails were. I'll have to return with my bike.
Easy find, that tree never had a chance!
Now down to Nannup for lunch.
