Destination Minnivale and what has become a tradition of sorts... BYO Marshmallows number V. Some fun with friends around a camp fire sharing some drinks, some hint, some tall stories and plenty of laughs.

Day two off with 3 car out on the road picking up caches here and there.
I'm with Kyzabra, the fitzys, Granett, Cirrus_WA, SVKR and sir fancy

The plan today is loose, no real plan just Caching with mates.

Found by me after others had tried and failed

Spent last night in minivale and decided to head out today with Allied_OZ, Granett and SVKR_WA and The Fitzys for a day grabbing some nearby caches. Plan initially was Dowerin, then Wyalkatchem then wherever. Sir Fancy and Cirrus_WA joined us for the morning as well.
Always on the hunt for archived caches and spotted this on my list. Happy to say came up trumps and made a fine.

Many thanks to Zodiakhorizon for placing and maintaining Dead Centre of Town - Cowcowing. I was here at 11:17 am on Saturday and this is my find 9655.

AlliedOz made the find here after Granett had already been through there.

On a camping trip with a pile of like minded geocachers. We headed out today for a run around the area. Tagging along was Granett, Kyzabra, AlliedOz, Sit Fancy, Cirrus, and The Fitzys.
As usual when we get together, a fun time is had with much banter and laughs.

Zodiakhorizon SVKR_WA is happy to have found your cache Dead Centre of Town - Cowcowing today at 11:17:50 9 Oct 2021. This brings my find count to 5020

Zodiakhorizon - Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment. We love travelling and visiting some places that we would only visit due to this game.

Searched high and low, multiple times by multiple people with nothing to show for it until AlliedOz let his fingers for the walking and found the cache.

Woke up bright and early and had a slow morning around the campsite.
Had a bit of chat about plans for the day and joined up with SirFancy, Kyzabra, AlliedOz, Granett, SVKR_WA & Fitzys.
Started off heading into Dowerin before making our way across to Wyalkatchem.
We turned north towards Koorda so I was able to tick off a new LGA. After stopping in town for lunch we made our way back to camp and waited for everyone else to arrive for a fantastic marshmallow event.
Had a ball out and about today with 26 finds.

After camping overnight in Minnivale ahead of tonight's Marshmallow event [GC9G5TP](https://coord.info/GC9G5TP) we headed out in a convoy of three cars to pick up a few smileys about the place.

Another archived hide crossed off the list. AlliedOz came up with the goods in a spot I'd already checked.


Zodiakhorizon I found your cache at 11:18am, this was the 14th of 18 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 7101. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Had a great couple of days away travelling the Wheatbelt. We got as far north as Beacon, as Far East as Elachbutting Rock and as far south as Kwolyin.

We spent the first night af Elachbutting Rock with Geotrakka and the second night with around ten teams at Kwolyin.

We metup with Richlink to attempt some high terrain caches near Mukinbudin, where multiple people was a nescessity for safety purposes.

We enjoyed travelling the backroads, camping under the stars and seeing amazing sights without all the people.

Great weekend away and have uploaded a bunch of pictures with the logs.

Thanks to the COs fat and wide for their caches and a great weekend.

Avoiding the rain in Perth we headed out for a day trip around the wheatbelt, finding a few caches along the way... Whilst in Wylie, we decided that we would head out to Cowcowing & see if this cache was still here? The Nuvi took us the shortest route (which was by no means the best route) & with all the rain recently we found ourselves engaged in 4WD for the second time today Surprised

On approach of GZ, we noticed a motorhome driving by & we surprised to see the bitumen road going right by the little cemetery [o:)] It was not hard to track down the clues & we had already guessed where GZ was... Perhaps we should have just looked there before doing the maths Wink

TFTC Zodiakhorizon [^] Not really sure why this one got archived as it is so close to the listed co-ords? Anyway not too worry our name is in the book, cheers Cool

Hi
This really should be fixed up as it is not a traditional cache.

You need to make it a traditional by changing the coordinates to where the final is or archive this listing and submit a new one as a multi.

Regards

Had planned a trip out into the SW but unfortunately it couldn't happen as planned so decided to take a drive out this way instead.

Was a quick find here but I don't know how it was published as a traditional when it is obviously a multi.

Thanks Zodiakhorizon for the cache.

Obvious spot but still took persistence to find. TFTC

I was meeting up with a colleague in Cowcowing and made an early start to pick up a couple of local caches on the way. After gathering the required info i soon had the cache in hand. TFTC.

Interesting location but why have a parking area on one side and the entry gate on the road side?

On a weekend Camping trip, heading East to the Goldfields with the Felix duo, hoping to fill in some gaps on the "The Well-Travelled and Aged Cacher Challenge". (GC3TR3M).

Ended up traveling over 1500Km over three days, so a fantastic road trip.

We guess where the hide was a soon as we stopped at the Cemetery, but still worked
out the coords anyway...!!!

Cheers for the hide.

How often can you say "nice cemetery"? Not often as we do not usually like them at all but this one is small and tidy and a beaut on its own. Cache was easily spotted. We are having a real "nano" sunday. TFTC Zodiakhorizon & Blondie.

Sitting having breakfast friday morning, checked for new caches and found that Zodiakhorizon and Blondie had left another trail of nano's across the country side. We quite enjoy these caches and getting out in the country so off we went. A enjoyable different kind of multi/traditional cache. Found quickly, third FTF for the day and last cache for the day.
