Hunting around every day finding and signing using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Whereyougo, Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S20+, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just plain old dumb luck WinkCoolBig Grin Quite a lot of that actually!!!
*Logs are composed and published using GSAK of course.*

Please do stay as safe as possible when caching.
Keep a lookout for bogs, snakes, surprise cliffs, boxing roos, wombats, bulldust, and floods,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- but especially lookout for bugs from alpha to omega !!! . [xx(]

Try to keep Travel Bugs as the only bugs you share and pass on Big Grin
Now our borders are open - even more important to sanitise and safely distance!!!


Much appreciation of all those placing quality caches out and about around the countryside,
in sensible safe places especially! - it keeps our game safe, fun, and interesting Cool

Went walking here today after climbing Mt Remarkable this morning. Stayed here at Mambray for a couple of days camping and was amazed at the beauty of this place. The trees are amazing which makes me both awe-struck and angry as these big trees should be everywhere. But hey... farmers are the biggest "environmentalists" aren't they? Hats off and full respect to the land-owner who saved these trees as he cared. TNLN. Cheers.

Full time nomads since 2014. Still tootling around the country trying to avoid Covid hotspots.

Not sure why I do this sometimes. Thought this one would be right near the camp grounds. Alas, after a small walk (seemed like ages), I finally stumbled across GZ. No where is it. After looking around for a while, finally located the hide - easier than I thought! Perhaps if it wasn't raining, this would have been more fun. Still, TFTC Smile

After Mrs DISK went for a drive over the Bridle Track Razz, it was time to head north to our camp spot for the night, via a detour to the Baroota Reservoir and the caches along the way Wink.
Well, we've setup our camp now, so it was time for a short walk before making dinner Razz.
All quiet in this part of the camping area today, with not a drop of water in the creek Big Grin. TNLNSL.

Find #7722**

Day twenty of my across the Nullarbor, then to Perth via Denmark trip. Unfortunately I was now on my way back home after a great couple of weeks getting to Perth, I guess it had to happen at some point. I am now really close to the end, but not before attend the June Long Weekend events nearby in Wirrabara.

Next on the list was a visit to Mount Remarkable National Park. Wow, what an amazing location, sure glad I stopped in today. Stopped in to check out the campsites on the way out and to find this cache.

**Thanks to FVPS for the cache. TNLN**
