With such beautiful weather today, we decided for a trip out Byford way and to find a few caches too... We did a bit of a circle here before heading bush towards the cache After Master 2 found the cache we found the easy way out!
TFTC AK & Allied Pranksters [^] The wildflowers are just starting to come out & I imagine this place in a month would be teaming with lots of pretty flowers! Cache was in good condition... Took Nothing, Left AutonomousAnonymous ORANGE TAG TB

Out with a day of caching with Branzy12, This was a quick find ...TFTC...No TB there
TFTC. Teamed up with JacobsCrew to tackle a bunch of caches out in the bushland near Byford, mainly the AP series. This was found on our walks around. Was a lovely day out and thoroughly enjoyed! Thanks
Quick find in an obvious hide. So much better than scratching around and playing hide and seek with a nano!!.
Dropped a TB that would love to visit the tree walks, so if your heading down south maybe stop by and take it with you.
Thanks for the hide Allied Pranksters

Had an enjoyable walk in this little bit of bushland. Lucky locals to have this! SL, TNLN, TFTC AP!
We decided to tackle some caches on the Southwest Highway, between Armadale & North Dandalup.
Enjoyed the variety of caches, some with interesting camo, and good hides.
Went for a walk amongst the wildflowers, timing was good as it was muggle free.
Many thanks for the cache, Allied Pranksters.

Found during a wonderful afternoon of geocaching and much reminiscing as we walked around Byford.
Thanks for bringing us back to this place, we really have just passed through since leaving back in the early 1980's.
We found the cache and plenty of lovely wildflowers too, the log was signed and we very carefully returned it to it hidey hole.

Headed off to find the 20 odd new SWH caches today. It is our 18th Wedding Anniversary and couldn't think of a better way to spend it than stop start driving and taking 5 hours to get from Armadale to Pinjarra!! I am sure my husband could think of a better way - like playing golf!! But this is what we did!
A 6am start at Armadale Maccas for the traditional early morning caching breakfast and then off we went. 36 on the list in total and a determined attitude!!! We are walking in the Leukemia Foundation Light the Night walk on 2nd October so $1 will be donated for every cache that we find today!!!
Sorry about the copy and paste of the main log, but hopefully each will be personalized a bit.
Number 40!!!! $40 raised for the Leukemia Foundation! What a day.
TFTC - time for a coffee

This should have been a quick find but we just couldn't see it. The GPSr kept telling me the cache was in the garden but we knew that couldn't be right. Eventually the geospouse found it in the "obvious" place! TFTC
Found quickly in the obvious place, though not firmly anywhere. SL. I haven't been here before, though I have lived in Armadale for over 15 years. Thanks to AmstradKid for the cache.
Quick find. Not sure if the cache was correctly hidden when I found it as it wasn't "firmly" placed anywhere and there really was no way of "firmly" placing it in that location. So I hid it about six inches above the location where I found it and it is firmly in place there. SL. TFTH AmstradKid.
TFTC, quick find whilst in Tue Byford area. Took TB, heading to its destination next week.
Awesome Find Dropped off a TB please help it get to the Busselton Jetty. It's attached to rubber duck, with attitude, all the way from Texas, US!!! Help him get to the Jetty Happy Geocaching Cheers x
Quick easy one here. Cache was quite exposed, so camo'ed it with some bark and leaves to help protect it from prying muggle eyes. Thanks AmstradKid
Nice little area in Byford area. Lovely little area for a cache as well. Found on a day out caching in the area. TFTH AmstradKid.
As it was going to be a cooler day today we decided to tackle the Oakford Stakes series as it promised to be a good walk - and it was. Got Mr Ed & Nelly completed and then set off to Byford for an enjoyable lunch at the patisserie. After lunch we decided to tackle some of the caches around Byford.
A nice hide in this small piece of bushland. Signed log and left one of our path tags.
Thanks for the cache AmstradKid. [^]

[:(!] Went for a early morning session of caching with Mrs GB, arrived at GZ and had it in hand in a matter of minutes TNLNSL TFTC
An ideal cache with parking nearby and pathways providing access to within 3m of the cache. Geokid friendly. TFTC
We met up with iluvtrekking for a 'big day out' caching in the Jarrahdale/Armadale area.After an easy find we enoyed a lunch break in the nearby car park.
Day 69 .. Number five.......

After a bit of a walk, GPSr started to show us the way, the weather condition and terrain were causing it to bounce a little, but I need to exercise. Nice and easy find, TN, SL, took pic of creek running thru bushland, left Thong KR and Perth KR TFTC
A Quick caching run to pick a few in the foot hills. Arrived at the parking spot near the GZ and started to follow the pointer to the magic spot, only to wander past a muggle walking her dog. Slowed down to look at the local flora whilst the muggle departed the area. Once she was gone, the cache was quickly uncovered, the log signed and the cache returned to its resting place. Thanks Amstrakid for the cache.
dropped past this one on our way to get lunch, nice quick easy find TFTF TNLN
Found it!
Fantastic afternoon out with Team Tsotras - thanks guys!
Thanks Amstradkid!

Found this one after a nice visit of the Serpentine Falls.Dropped of TB Gizmo TFTC
After going for a mountain bike ride at Jarrahdale we stopped at this one on the way home. A quick and easy find, and from reading the description it looked like the cache was not in the intended position, so I have replaced it back in the correct spot as best as I could and I hope it stays there alright.
Lovely spot of bushland. Thanks for the cache AmstradKid!

The last GC find of our 12day holiday of the Southwest. Picked this one up between rain showers as we headed for the Freeway to go North. TFTC AmstradKid.
This was the first cache we did on our lightning Journey around the South west
We found over 100 caches in 5 days
We did lots of walking and it was very hot but a lot of fun finding them all.
We are glad we did this when the kiddies were all inside the school ...it made it a lot easier.
A bright torch may help !!!
