Had a good look. Sadly did not find

A quick find here although it was strewn along the ground. The local mower man must have accidentally wipper snipped it but all good and back where I think it belongs. TFTC

Out and about again, this time down in the Collie- Boyup Brook area, it was a really wet day so it was slow going - had a careful of muggles.

Found a variety of hides and in different areas which made for a nice day. Generally quick finds today

Thanks to all the CO’s for the hides I found.

A very small place and seemingly peaceful found cache tfth

Heading to Broomehill to start the Holland Track.

Beauges, I found Duranillan today. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.

Quick find on our way out of town from Collie parkrun to the next adventure. TFTC

Taking the back to my destination in order to grab a few caches. Small little town, quick grab. TFTC

TFTC. Nice easy find

Great spot not to obvious but not too hard. Small container with only a log but still fun.

A quick stop on my way to Narrogin from Bridgetown. Thanks.

Found on our drive to Albany tonight by torchlight! All good Tftc

Quick park & find. Tftc

A quick find in this sleepy little town.
Caching our way home from an enjoyable WAGB weekend.

TFTC Beauges

Woohoo !!! Found it !!!
On the way beach home to Bunbury from Albany and had the chance to gather a few smileys along the way as I had the time today.
Nice quick find here.
TFTC

Very quiet town when we visited. Maybe it is always quiet here?

Tftc

Nice easy one today tyfc

Great coordinates so an easy find.
We had fun pronouncing the town name.
Thanks.

Quick find . While we are staying at lake Towerrining.

Tftf

Stopped here for lunch and a quick find! TFTC!

Awesome Quick drive through. Thanks

Had to laugh, Mr ILT walked into the shop and the man inside said with surprise
"Where did you come from?" just as though he had never seen a non-local before. Must admit though, I don't think there was any body else in town today.

Thank you Beauges

Thanks nice hide. Had to come back as there were road workers here before

Found on a nice drive home from work with ryno80

Decided to do a caching run to Albany and stay overnight and cache on the way home. Our aim was to pick up as many as possible including multi,s and puzzle caches that the hubby had solved. Most caches were found quickly with a few that took a bit of searching to find. A big thanks to all the CO,S for placing the caches for us and everyone else to find.

TFTH headed down to Albany for a quick weekend trip. Needed to do some maintenance on some down that way and made the most of it by finding a few along the way.

On the trip home the main aim of the game was to find the My Home series of caches. All these were found in good condition and made for some fun caching through the. Country side. A. Good range of camo containers and sizes.

Ended up with 20 finds and 9 caches checked on. Just short of 1000km on the Geocar with the weather perfect on both days.

Thanks for bringing me back down this way and as usual I'm sure it won't be long until I return again.

With a rare additional weekend off secured, plans were hatched to go out and find s bunch of caches to keep the numbers ticking over. We thought why not kill two birds with one stone, do some running repairs on our Albany caches, and finally, and I mean finally grab the My Home series, which has been on the radar for far too long.

This is my kind of geocaching, nice country driving, some different styles of container and good times with good mates, what more can you want. We're finally getting close to having the whole route from Perth to Albany along Albany highway cleaned up. It's taken five years so far, and we've nearly cached out every town along the route, and the alternative route via Cranbrook including just about every town between. Hopefully we can pickup a few more on our next run down. Thanks

First log for 2017 took a bit of searching got the smiley in the end TFTC

This one took us a little while, had to take a second look over the place but was easy in the end, tftc!

Out and about for a country drive over the New Year's long Weekend.
This is why we enjoy caching, it gets us out and about seeing bits of history as we travel.
Found your cache and thanks for sharing this interesting spot.
TFTC

A cute little town,
That why we enjoy caching, this has been on our to do list for a few years, finally called in.
TFTC

Found it! Bit longer to find as the GPS jumped around but soon the cache was in hand tftc !

Nice quick find
TFTC

It is certainly tucked away. Tftc

Heading to darkan for supplies, stopped off for a quick find

Tftc Beagues

Looked for a little bit but found it tucked away and hidden well

Found on our way to our next adventure to our newest addition of camp sites during the school holidays.
We're looking forward to this place though as we checked it out on our way home from Augusta @ Easter.
Thanks for a quick break in our journey.

I am heading down to Albany to attend the WA Caching Turns Fifteen Bash, so I headed off early on Friday morning to make the most of a caching day.

I took the long, winding road and found myself in the area.

Nice little town here, and a quick find had me on the road once more.

TFTC.

I found your cache Duranillan on 4/03/2016 at 9:43 AM.
This is my find #2280 and find #7 today.

Love these out of the way, little forgotten towns that just happen to have a cache in it to make the visit more memorable. This little town will have a last memory as it sells beer and I needed some for our last night at the lake nearby. How could I have miscalculated my requirements? Well I did but having signed this cache in the morning and before I had my first beer I realised that the shop MUST sell some, as it's the only shop for miles. and it did and was helped out by a lovely guy and very friendly. Love the bush.

This one took us a little while longer than normal, but m4yb had it in hand after I had tried a few other possible spots.

Also love that they are not often found, so it makes them more special.

Thanks for placing this cache Beauges.

Having 3 days camping at lake Towerrining, kayaking and just enjoying the water, the best place to be during heatwave temperatures.
Today we went for a little drive to neighbouring towns, this one is a nice little stop, and a handy cache to put a smiley on the map. TFTC Beauges.

Easy find on a passing visit to Duranilling. TFTC

Hidden well

Hidden well

A nice hide here and I found it in the second place I looked . A sleepy little town [^]

After staying at the caravan park in Katanning, geoson and I did a bit more exploring (ok, ok ... caching) before we headed away towards home. We managed to find this one on our travels and added our name to the log!

Beauges - jinta29 found your cache Duranillan on 18/07/2015 11:30 am. This is my find #3461 and find #6 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Thanks

Tftc

A quick park and grab. Thanks for bringing us here again. TFTC

Found this one on the homeward journey after a week of awesome caching around the Great Southern area. Am sad to be going home, but duty calls.

Was making good time until I hit the Darkan/Collie Road - lots of roadworks in progress - so was great to have a reason to pull off every now and then to find a cache.

Thanks Beauges

Lovely spot to stop and reflect on the days gone by. It is hard to know if these towns were because of rail, or rail was because of many little country towns. But no longer much of either. Thanks for the cache.

A quick search in the rain and the cache was found. SL TSLS TFTC Beauges

Very long grass in the area kept this one hidden else the cache is gone.
A quiet spot on a busy weekend.

A very quick find by me after muggle partner walked right over it . No. 17/18 find today.

I'm sure it was mean't to be hidden and not just on the grass to be seen by everyone. So I've hidden it for now but the grass won't be there to protect it forever so someone will probably need to find a better spot for it.

Then took a drive around town before starting our journey home. When it's only a few streets there's no problems there.

TFTC, sign log and back on the rd.

A really easy find on my way through. Could do with a new log as there's no room left.

A quick stop and a quick find in one of these small 'towns' that are dotted around the southwest. A good opportunity to stretch the legs
TFTC

The rest of my caching family had found this cache previously, but hadn't logged it. We were down this way again at Easter for another visit to see our good farming friends kcsun71. I took the chance the skip away by myself - on the pretence of getting the paper - to catch up on this missed cache. Thanks for the hunt.

Got too love long weekends!!

Nice quick find on our return path homewards, number 27 for our trip.

TFTC

Found with my muggle mates while camping nearby at make Towerrinning, not sure if i have converted them but they had fun. found with ease. TFTC

Quick find on the way to Bunbury for the weekend. Nice drive through some different country side.

Called into the small shop for a roadside snack, and then a nice stroll to the cache, our third and final cache for the day. Thanks Beauges.

Found it hard to get past the keeper of the cache....
I thought Beauges may have put this fella here to guard the cache
TFTC

Littlest member of the team found it on a wild and blustery day.

Very quiet in town this morning on our way to Hyden. Cache had rolled out of its hidey hole so lucky we decided on the detour to wipe this one off our 'to do' list!

Easy find, took nothing and left a shell.....Great to break the trip up home....

Poor old station siding has seen better days.

Took : whistle
Left : bubbles

Never been out this way before. Easy find in a nice quiet little town. One of the locals asked what we were up to AFTER we replaced the hide. So we told him and he said he was really interested. He had a gps in his truck he used for tracking soil samples. Another convert maybe TN Left whistle. Grabbed Buzz Lightyear TB. TFTC

Yayy a first to find. TFTC Left Buzz lightyear travel bug and took geocoin.
