Archive unfortunately

Update I am awaiting the arrival of the replacement caches for this one anyway now hopefully

Apologies looked and yes this is missing. Will disable

Currently back east but will be back next week with supply's and hopefully fix this one.

On our WA road trip with Geo-rge, Miss Jane & EMDH.

No luck with this one.

Thanks for brining us to this part of WA.

TFTH Teamdjbilo

No muggles around... i had a good look but couldnt put a smile on this one.

Couldn't locate this time, Maybe on out next visit.

Had a good long search but to no avail.

No luck here as well. Checked high and low buy ended up empty handed. Thanks anyway Teamdjbilo.

Checked the spots matching the hint and the coords, but couldn't get a decent search going thanks to a surprising abundance of muggles early in the morning.

The mirror came in really handy this afternoon. TFTC!

LOG BOOK NEEDS REPLACING.

Found with M and TWDG on the way back to Adelaide. What is with all the nanos in Kal? Do they not sell Eclipse Mints in WA? TFTC

Found on TWDG's return road trip from Xmas/New Year in WA.
Anja & Setsujoku came along for the ride, shared the driving & found all the caches
Nice hide, interesting spot
TFTC

Found on our Operation Return from sand groper trip with TWDG & Anja.

3 days, Perth to Adelaide, and a lot of caches in between.

23 find for the drive back to adelaide!

TNLNSL

Here from Canada, caching our way across Australia....

Had a good look for this one but unfortuately came up empty handed.

Thanks anyways Teamdjbilo

We did the cache then walked up to the bridge hoping for a train but no. Then of course as we were walking to the next cache we heard it. Typical! TFTC.

Out on a geocaching getaway with barnzy12. From Perth to Kalgoorlie to Esperance back to Perth in 3 days. Tftc.

TFTC. Found on a caching trip with Cravo10 from Perth to Kalgoorlie, Esperance and everywhere else along the way.

Easy find with the clue, however the log is too full to be able to log. TFTC

Had a nice walk before breakfast to find this one. Stopped in the store across the street and got a sandwich for lunch. Nothing like multi-tasking!

Found on our stopover on the Indian Pacific before we took a walk around town. Not the easiest spot to get to but we found it. Tftc.

Arrived early on a warm day after hotel checkout to catch The Prospector to Perth. First timer. Station desterted.TFTC

Found it as we were leaving Kalgoorlie, but there was not anywhere to write on the log though. TFTC

Great, another one on our travels around WA! TFTC!

Log book full, squeezed our monika in over another.
Area very grotty under foot ....... take care!

Log book completely full... We used the last spot... Great find... Not where we expected it but after a bit of searching we found it... Yay yay
Number 32 on our holiday yay

On the way home to Perth on the Indian Pacific whilst on a wander about town during a stop we just checked and discovered this one was nearby. Geocache male member found it. Explained concept to another train traveller and have another convert. Great hide.

Being an old railwayman it is always a pleasure to visit railway stations and let me say this is a magnificcent station
Signed log which is neally fit.
TFTC

TFTC. Took a while but managed to find it! Needs a new log. This one is now full!!

Looked for ages but no luck

Wasn't going to let this one go and yes, it wasn't as difficult as I was making it out to be. *bows head in shame* I'm sure I'd been over the spot it was in five times already.
TFTC

Looking at all of the 'Easy Find' comments is very disheartening. No luck for this little black duck.

Felt a bit conspicuous with road works going on.

had to look a couples of times our first micro, cheers

Found this cache at 4:10pm while in Kalgoorlie for a few days and sightseeing and caching as we go.
Loved the story on the history of the Prospector.
Thanks Teamdjbilo for the history lesson and the hide.
The Bushies NSW

Found this one easy when the train made a stop on its way to Sydney. Almost midnight but still no problem.

A quick find in a very quiet place on a Sunday afternoon. Walked up to the top of the bridge after returning cache. Thanks.

I ended up in Kalgoorlie for work for the day and had the opportunity to pick up a couple of caches before heading back to the hotel for the night. In tow was one rather bemused muggle co-worker.

This cache was a relatively quick find. Shame I was too busy gas bagging (I tend to do that) to notice the meter box before I slammed into it head first - OOOOOOOWWWWWWWCCHH!! Co-worker nearly wet himself laughing. I was so preoccupied with nursing my battered skull, the walk to the next cache passed quite quickly.

TFTC Teamdjbilo

Nobody around at 6am. Cool though.
TFTC

Started to doubt this was here. Once found, realised what we'd got ourselves into chasing nanos.

A quick find after fittingly dropping the geo-girlfriend off to catch the prospector home. TFTC

A quick easy find. While doing some cache-in' had to do some trash-outin' there was so much around. Thanks for the cute 'lil cache Teamdjbilo.

found

First microcache find! Thanks for the history too!

I must have looked over it twice before I found it. Grabbed on a stop over on the Indian Pacific.

What an amazing town. Came here on a tour and we were glad a cache was here to have us pause and take in the sights here. The old railway station and the wonderful Anzac Memorial. Drove around town and marvelled at some of the lovely old and elegant buildings. Thanks for the cache Teamdjbilo. Brought a few trackables to gain some miles for a visit.

TFTH

very well done good spot

Found with mjayrippa. Tfth

Took us a few minutes to get this one! Muggles about.

Pastafreak163 and gradem visited today, nice quick find. Tfth.

Gradem and I visited today, nice quick find. Tfth.

Out for a morning walk and as this one is across the road from my accommodation it had to be a good starting point. An easy find with very few muggles around.

TFTC

My travellers came for a visit too, cheers!

Easy 1st find for a day combined with business, shopping and caching. Think I signed the log as the 7th though. TFTC.

I reckon that there must have been a 'special' on these little nanos in the west recently! This was an easy find with the hint though. TFTC

Nice quick find. Mrs KC said "check there" and almost dropped it. Signed log and then moved up to the cenotaph to pay our respects. TFTC

Tricky, but found.

Quick find in between bridge crossing muggles.TFTC.

TFTC!

What a tricky little bugger! This one took all my super caching powers as you really need to look. These nano caches are bloody hard to find but when you do find them, you feel like you have just won the Footy Grand Final!!!
TFTC

Could not find it i don't know why. TFTH

TFTH - nice one

Quick find while waiting to reboard the Indian Pacific for last leg to Perth. TFTC

Nice easy one with the Geocachlettes. Thanks for the hunt!

Nice easy one, thanks!

Found while trying to clean up all of the caches in Kalgoorlie. TFTC

Good hide. Found quickly. I spent a New Year's Eve a few years ago sitting on the 'Indian Pacific' at this very station with my wife and EsromL. TFTC

Not many people around late on a wet afternoon!

Easy find on a chilly day. TFTH

Found at 11.15.

Had to wait to retrieve this as a memorial
service for the Boar War was underway at the Memorial.
Once they had all left it was easy to retrieve.

Spotted again by eagleye.

TFTC

Took about 15mins. Was at night. Good hiding spot. Easier i'n the day!

Easy find!

Found after short search. No muggles. TFTH.

Nice and easy find

An enjoyable early morning walk with friends on Easter Sunday. With 12 of us climbing all over the bridge and fence, it was lucky that there were no muggles around. TFTH

Easy find by Ms Bushies2. Thanks Teamdjbilo for the cache and fun.

Looked for ages in the dark, during our short stop on the Indian Pacific. Maybe next time!!!

This is Awesome!!!! Second find....

Having so much fun...

Took me awhile to find Nano but i just had to crouch down low

"Go Team penguin007"

Was glad for the hint - then it was just a matter or figuring out which fence..... definitely a daytime hunt

This is so much easier to find during the day. We went looking last night but only had one torch between the 4 of us, wasn't easy.
Even today we were looking for a while, I think we were about to give up and go on to the next one. We walked over the bridge looking down at the fence the whole time, run our hands over the top the whole length of the fence, nothing!!!!
Once you know where it is, really easy to find. Can just about drive passed really slow and see it.

tftc sl. didn't find a train but found the cache

A quick and easy find with no muggles in sight.

Found easy once knew what we were looking for.

Easy find. Not a Muggle to be seen on a late Saturday arvo. TFTC.

Aha, another great train journey that I plan to take one of these days!!!

This will be the closest I'll get for a while.

Was a little concerned about where I was sticking my fingers at GZ, but found without too many issues. Again, an early-ish start meant minimal muggle activity.

TFTC and cheers from Germany.

Easy find. Did the walk over the bridge and geo-junior was happy to see The Prospector train in the station. Found at 6.00pm.

This is our 4350th overall find.

Found at about 5:15 PM. Found this one after a huge day or two travelling out to Kal for work. It was a quick find with no muggles around this afternoon.

Thanks to Teamdjbilo for the cache.

Easy find, we found it just as the Prospector was leaving. Stood up at the top of the bridge and waved it on its way as we signed the log.

I love this town! There are so many fantastic historic places around here, and this is one of them. I have some of these micro caches but have not put any of them out yet. They seem to be working well. TFTC

Found fairly quickly. Interesting places nearby.TFTC

YAY! We found it on the second visit.
First time there was other geo-muggles around.

Returned at night to use nightcover stealth.
We found exactly where we were first searching.

We are the 6th to find this micro.

Thanks for the cache!

Brad, Kirra and baby Jayden.
