Day 9 of the road trip - today I'm relocating from Leonora to Leinster and picking up the caches along the way Smile This was another one that I stopped off at. If it had been closer to the road it would have been a cache & dash, haha. Was spotted peeping out as I walked over to GZ which made for a very easy find Smile No problems here today - TFTC

Catching up with very late logs.

After a great trip along the Canni9ng Stock route and then visiting friends in Gerald ton it was now time to start heading home, of course stopping along the way to pick up any caches that appeared on the screen.

We pulled up near gz and after a nice quick search we were rewarded with an easy find and while signing the log we noticed a lot of dust in the distance so we assumed that the copper and zinc mine is still an active one.

Many thanks shady Ninja for keeling this one going.

A quick find on our way to Kalgoorlie.TFTC

Over the years, geocaching has taken me on many adventures, including interesting destinations all over my home continent of Australia and many overseas as well. It has also introduced me to a diverse group of like-minded caching tragics, many of whom I now call close friends.

Today, I was lucky enough to be out and about searching for caches, something I do on almost a daily basis. This was one cache that was targeted and found.

Sorry for the late and generic log, something I am notorious for. Thank you Shady_Ninjafor adding to the adventure that is geocaching.

11-Jul-19
Had a trip out to The historic ghost town of Gwalia planned for some time now and with the wife keen to check out some of the ghost towns and various ruins throughout the goldfields it was sure to be a great trip.

We travelled to Kalgoorlie and then upto Gwalia where we stayed at Hoover House, which is the old mine managers house for the sons of gwalia mine and offered great views of the pit.

We took a day trip out to Laverton and Leinster with a small detour to grab a few caches along the great central road. After our detours from Leonora we dropped back into Kal and down to Esperance for the last night of our trip.

A great trip away and thanks for all the caches along the journey. Thank you to the COs for their caches.
 
09-Jul-19
With a few days off work it was time to head north and grab a few more caches to fill in my blank LGAs.
I pulled over for this one on our way down to Kalgoorlie. and it didn't take too long to find.

This was find number 4 for the day.

Found on our way from Sandstone to Niagara Dam. Amazing stories of those early prospectors and settlers. A hard life. How many went out to find their fortune to never return. They could not imagine how mining is done now. Tftc

Quick find
 
18-Jul-18
The clue made this one easy to spot.
We are thoroughly enjoying our trip to the area and are perfecting the one finger wave!!!!
Only downside is the number of dead cattle beside the road. Even saw one cow and calf which was a bit sad.
Makes you make sure you are camped before dusk though.
Thanks.

This trip through the Goldfields has been a while in the planning and the main mission was to collect caches in at least another 8 Local Government Areas to qualify for a challenge cache recently set up by megawatt60! I didn’t really have a plan on where I would be sleeping and was happy to throw the swag down once the daylight became in short supply. From Kalgoorlie I headed north as far as Leinster with a few deviations along the way. I then headed west through Mt Magnet and then meandered my way back towards Perth. I had GC and GCA caches lined up and tried to grab as many as I could while passing by. Cheers to all the CO’s for the hides and hopefully I can head back one day soon to clean up the caches I wasn’t able to find on this trip. TFTC

G’day there Shady_Ninja, I was in this area today and found your cache Jag Blue GC2P4D9. I added my name to the log book at 6:29 am on 4 April 2018. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

This brings our total find count to 9434

Is there any mineral they do not mine around here Razz
I thought it was all about nickel and gold Red Face
Well there sure are a lot of mines !!
The constant streams of road trains testify to that !! Smile

Here outside a different sort of mine,
a cache was easy to dig up [^]
I'm guessing this mine is owned by the Dutch ??
What else could the NL on the sign refer to ?? Big Grin

Found at 11:59 AM GAFF5 in the company of xambo4u, &others and Ian&Sue - Team Pathfinder..
Parked the 4 vans on the side of the mine road and then a short walk to the cache with no undue hardships and the cache was quickly spotted. These few caches along this road have really been appreciated to break up our trip.
Thanks Shady_Ninja.

Thanks Shady Ninja for the cache. We had the company of Team Pathfinder, pprass & xambo4u.
 
All four caravans managed to safely park which allowed us to head off and find this cache. A quick find was pleasing as the flies were very friendly here.

We followed a set of footprints to this cache, which we presume belong to the previous finder, who must have only just beat us to the cache.
Found on our Grey Nomad trip round Australia. A heartfelt thank you to all the Cachers who take the trouble to hide caches, for the likes of us to break our journeys on. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.

Hello!

Jag Blue has now been replaced! Different container to last time but the name still works.

I didn't have a notebook to use as a logbook so I have improvised.
Madness or genius, you decide! Its waterproof without even trying! Razz

Pen inside, plus a few other bits a pieces.
