WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 43 - York to Wandering via Beverly and some vary back roads. It was straight back to Beverly, to then get on a new road heading South West. This gave me a good go at few Wandoo caches before trying some road option google wanted, but tomtom was not so keen on. This seemed to mean dirt. Despite the rain, both sections were firm, and I even managed one cache out in the who knows where before arriving in Wandering. Once set up I wandered around town, if you can call a council town with no shops a town, for the Labs and a couple of other caches. After a quirt afternoon doing logs, it was off to the tavern for dinner. At least there was a good crowd there.Once I reached this new section of road, it was back to roadside caching while carefully placing the van out of the way. It was not very busy, just a huge tractor at one point. All the caches found were in good condition except one.Thanks for the cache Keego_and_Chil47541.4 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 2015 From the Ashes A#323**Albida**

With the rain stopping for the day I thought Id race out and continue the Wandoo series today. Blue skies and fresh temps keeping me motivated to do as much as I can for today! The road is nice and quiet today which allows me to drive like a granny between stops. Thanks for placing this series for us to enjoy
Out with Chwiliwr for a maintenance run of his Wandoo caches and also doing some maintenance of these Wandoo caches placed by Keego and Chil. Where it was necessary he replaced containers and/or logs and then I signed the log. All this section is now OK to be found.
Thanks Keego and Chil for placing these caches for me to find.

I overnighted in York and today I slowly made my way through Beverley and some of the Wandoo series towards Brookton Highway. Nice sunny day for caching but with a strong wind.
Nice quick one here to start my Wandoo afternoon.

Found with Whitburn2321 a couple of weeks ago, forgot to log the find, cheers for the cache
Left home in the wheatbelt to do a trip to metro area which normally takes around two hours; but today it took 6 hours with a plan of getting 63 caches but time got the better of us and only did 36 caches along WestDale road and Brookton highway. Some interesting finds but sadly 3 DNF’s.
Cheers for being the runner Prycee2709, get through them a lot quicker with a driver and runner.
Long day hunting now logging all of today’s caches, sorry for generic logs.
Thanks for the Wandoo series.

Yep, let out briefly from Covid-19 isolation area closure, just a wee bit of exercise and fresh air. I had a geocaching driver and decided to do a few of the Wandoo series which is located not far from the farm who kindly allowed us to stay during the lockdown when we had nowhere else to go.
The container and log book were all good at this one of the series.

Thanks for the series. I only had time to stop for a few today as I had places to be. Coordinates were all good and containers well maintained.
Out and about with Team Barritts for couple of days caching adventures around York and Wandoo NP.
Thanks to all the CO's for their hides and bringing us to these fantastic places.

Quite a large spider had made itself a home right underneath the cache. Squealed a bit then I picked it up! haha
Spent the day trying to finish off this series. I was expecting more leaf litter hiding the caches but most were quick finds. Lots of different camos and a few that made me think twice. Only 6 dnfs because of fire or verge clearing. Tftc.
Up and out about early with Neva2old to claim a few smileys, we headed out to make a start on the Wandoo Series and any that jumped out along the way. After a quick search this cache was soon in hand and a smiley claimed TFTF

Thank you! I headed out with papillon367 to finish off this series. The two of us managed to locate most caches without too much trouble, and it was a great day for a drive.
Ullyssia and I teamed up for a full day of caching to finish the Wandoo series that we had started in January. We completed the "bird" series and found all the minerals. Most caches were quick finds as the coordinates were spot on. Thank you for the hide and for the series Keego_and_Chil.
Going to have to pick up sometime on the way home so this will have to be the last one for this road. Oh well good reason to come back out this way. Nice quick park and grab on this one. TFTC Keego and Chil.
Found, this series is going to be completed one day, but not today! Good to get some more done along the way. Day 2 with axell33 on our wheatbelt run. Beautiful paddocks of gold, ready for harvest. So many great caches taking us to amazing places. Thank you for this cache.
Just when I thought my brain was writing cheques my body can't cash I found it yeah
Monts decided today was a good day for geocaching as he wanted uninterrupted napping, due to keeping me awake most of the night. TFTC Keego_and_Chil

Out caching around the Area.
Had very heavy rain during the early morning.

Spent aus day caching with muskcat83 and janssej and kids. Thanks for the series. Will be back to finish
Met up with ctvanderlinden and muskcat83 for the day in search of my 1000th find. Needed 52 to achieve this goal - we ended up with 101 for the day! It was a warm Australia Day, but a great way to spend the day in the bush, seeing kangaroos, wallaby's and even a race horse goanna! Thanks heaps for the series - we'll be back at some point to finish it off i'm sure!

A call went out and a plan was hatched to tackle the Wandoo series. Very early this morning we joined forces with WebblyWA to see how we would fair and with the expectation that it would be good to complete at least half the series. We started and just cached, cached and cached finishing 11.5 hours later with 138 finds and the series completed apart from one that is temp disabled. Had a great day and a huge thanks to the CO's and those that maintain the series. Sorry for the mostly generic logs.

January's challenge mission for me was to collect at least 300 caches. Knowing I could get almost half way there with one series, I put out a call to see who would like to join me on an epic WANDOO day and Team Fratra was up for it so plans were made. We met up early collecting the first cache at 6.45am. Completing the series 11 and a half hours later, with No DNFs and only one glitch left on the map of a cache that is currently disabled. My total for the day finished up with a few extras at 140 as darkness, wind and rain set in.
It was a wonderful day and we had great weather for the majority of the day. Massive thanks to the COs and everyone that has put work into maintaining the series.
Cache #67 for the day. TNLN

Out to complete a few more caches in the Wandoo series today. I thought the weather would catch up with me sometime during the day but I seemed to be lucky and missed all the rain. I found the first cache at 10:46 and the last one at 17:35 before calling it a day. All in all There was sixty three finds and three DNF's, so a fairly successful day. This was find number twenty six for the day and was a fairly quick find Thanks keego and chil for the cache.
Found on a nice winter’s day with Le Boof, during our second run at this trail. Thanks for getting us out to towns near to Perth that we should visit more often.
Found quickly, cache in good condition.

Out today to complete the Wandoo series. It has taken us 4 trips so far and today we had a few minerals and birds to go.
It was a great day for it. We loved the variety of containers, types of hides and the great drive through the countryside.
We ended missing a couple of letters, so we still have to work out the bonus box.

Due to the +40 heat predicted today, The Wandoo series was highest on the geocaching list. This was due to being mostly park and grab, therefore it was 50/50 between air conditioning and searching.
Had a great day and really enjoyed it with over 100 finds and a couple of DNF's. Thanks for your effort Keego and Chil
