Found on a lovely Sunday morning! First Aussie cache, greetings from Switzerland! Thx!
Brad and Janet are on an epic 6 week trip aiming to travel along the Canning Stock Route, the longest stock route in the world. 51 wells and crossing 4 deserts. We are traveling with a group of 11 vehicles on a tour led by Ron and Trent Moon. We have the geomobile towing the mini-geohouse on wheels. We have a couple of caches to put out if we find a good spot. We will grab what we can as we pass. We have finished the CSR and now have a day in Meekatharra to restock etc. And grab a cache or two.TFTC
Back on holidays chasing the sun, travelling around and collecting a few caches on our way. Found your cache easily and it was in good condition. Thanks for adding to the enjoyment of holiday.GPS was 8m out and hint no longer relevant. Previous log provided the hint.
Sorry for the late log.Heading South now, back home.What an amazing place...We will definitely be back to explore further when we have more time.TB visited on its travels.TFTC
Found the cachet, however, could not write in the book as it was saturated…. I have left the lid off and turn the container upside down in the hope that it may dry out. It’s certainly can’t get any wetter than what it is….. thank you for bringing us to this look at really cool view
On the way to the south we made a little visit in Meekatharra and were looking for some Geocache. This is one of them we found. Thank you for the Cache.
a good view from here.

This was one of the caches we found while out exploring around Meekatharra with goingplaces2. Each log was signed with both names. Thanks for showing us a place of interest.
This was one of the available caches around Meekatharra which was on a target list that we wanted to look for together with ilook4geo. It was a nice easy find and the signing duties were soon done. Thanks go to Team Willows for placing this cache.
On a holiday with familysteiner. Checking out the desert before we head to the coast. Tftc
I almost didnt see it as it was well hidden. But well done to the people who hid it.
Found with kiwinic on our annual northern holiday. Another find in meeka ticked off the list. A nice view over town. TFTC
On an Adventure North. We have hitched the caravan are are intending to find some sunshine and warm weather.
Travelling along Hwy 94 and Hwy 1, our destination is Broome, via Karijini NP, then the trip home is along the coast sampling the towns we have yet to visit.
Of course along the way we will be getting a cache of two ......... and lots more.
Quick stop and find as we passed through the town

Thanks Team Willows for bringing me to this location and taking the time to hide and maintain this cache. I found the cache at 11:51:00. This was my Find 8 for today out of a Total number of 50 Finds and 4 DNF for for this Caching Outing. The cache was found in Good Condition and I signed the log and returned the cache as I found it.
This find brings my total number of Finds to 5362.
We parked our caravan at Peace Gorge for a couple of days, unloaded our mountain bikes and headed out for a morning of exploring and geocaching. This cache was the first find of today, a great hill climb allowed me to continue my training whilst travelling.
We had the place to ourselves and after a short search had this decent sized cache in hand. So good to see that caches bigger than a mint tin are still being placed.
We spent a while at the actual lookout taking photos and reading the informative boards - I learned a little more of the local history too.
Thanks.

Find 3 of 13 on day 3 of our road trip. Today we went from Cue to Mount Magnet the very long way round, via Wiluna/Leinster.
All good up here.

Heading north today and we had a stop over in Meekatharra. This was an easy find - my favourite kind - with quite an awesome view. Thanks for the reason to have a look. I left a pathtag. TFTC
Making our way to Marble Bar we took a slight detour to grab this one. We parked nearby and made the short walk to gz and a quick find once we were there. We added our names to your log book and returned your cache back to where it belongs. TFTC Team Willows
Making our way from Perth to Marble Bar and we were able to add this smilie to our map. The cache is safe and well here. Thanks for the hide and greetings from Baldivis.
Parked up and wandered along and made the find. Nice spot!!

Fantastic views from here. Found cache quickly. Thanks for placing this here. Tftc
It was out in the open but in good condition. You can see for miles up here. Thanks for bringing us to this place & TFTC Team Willows
We are heading up north to see some of the wonderful sights our great State has, the amazing scenery, the interesting history, the local characters, it's wonderful to see this part of Australia through the eyes of the local Geocachers.
We called into this little gem of a spot, full of the colourful sights of Meeka and the local history.
We found your cache tucked away neatly, and with signing duties done and dusted, we replaced the cache as found.
Thanks for sharing this interesting spot.

Drove the caravan up to the top and enjoyed the early morning view. Thanks Team Willows.
Going out for a trip with a few mates and decided to stop a some caching along the way. Found this one on our way thru... quick easy find. Thanks
Came from UK 40 years ago and my first job was on a station out from Meeka. I survived and this is first time back here--and it still looks the same!! Tftc
Up to the lookout for the view and a cache. Team Crackers came up as well but for them it was so cracker girl could take a few photos to add to the trip collage. A quick find once I headed over to GZ, thanks Team Willows for placing this cache.
Hi there Team Willows.
We found your cache **"Meeka with a View"** today. (This makes our find count 22704).
We cached from Cue to Meekatharra today - and found your cache **"Meeka with a View"** at 1:08:00 PM. (This brings our total find count to 22704). We had an interesting trek around the area & found 9 caches today & DNF'd 0.
Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wander around Australia. Thanks also for placing a large cache here. It made us feel really glad to find a large cache (with swaps) here.
**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:** We took some rubbish out of the cache.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
**Dropped Trackable:** "The BURKHILL Bear".
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny

With a few days off work it was time to head north and grab a few more caches to fill in my blank LGAs.
Out for a morning run while staying at the Meekatharra Caravan Park. This was the first one for the morning and i just missed the fabulous sunrise but as I reached the top there were 4 ladies there who told me how wonderful it was. I took a couple of photos for them then headed over to GZ. It was a quick find once there and well sheltered from the 4 ladies at the lookout. I gave them a wave on my back down the hill to the next one.
This was find number 1 for the day.

I found this one by complete accident, no phone, GPS just good old eyeballs. Not saying its a bad spot though. Thanks for the cache, made a n interesting walk even more so.
Another great view of Meekatharra.
While Mr L.S read the info I wandered off to find the cache.
Nice scenery from the path I took and the viewing spot.
Found the cache nicely hidden, signed the log and put
back into it's hiding place.
Thanks Team Willows

Waiting to catch a plane back to Perth and used the opportunity to explore some caches in the area. What lovely views. Tftc
Ninth day of our 'loop tour' to check out the wildflowers and pick up caches along the route.
Left Sandstone early and headed to Meeka basically for a look around as neither of us had been here before and to pick up the local caches. Steep climb in the Patrol with camper up to the lookout. Quick find while enjoying the surrounding views. Thanks Team Willows

On a big round trip, heading up to my sisters in Newman and then across to Karajini Np, Tom Price and then to my Dad's in Carnarvon, to Shark bay and Monkey Mia, to Gerardton and back though Perth to Mandurah. Tftc.
Camped last night at Nallan Nature Reserve and arrived in Meekatharra fairly early this morning. This was the first of the 9 caches we attempted here. We took the rough way to GZ but once there noticed a much smoother track only metres away so returned that way.
Took a spare container but it was not big enough for the log book and contents so hopefully the next finder will come better prepared.
Spent quite a while at the lookout building before leaving where interesting reading and great views were to be found.
Thanks.
