TFTC! Out for another Wheatbelt drive with Cravo10 to cleanup a bunch of caches published since or that we left since our last visit a couple of years back.

Had a great day out covering approx 900km and visiting a large number of country towns that have very low cache density. Highlights included finding more of zed' archived caches and visiting roe lookout which had fantastic views of the countryside.

Thanks

[Teal] As we head from town to town as part of our "Purposeful Meander around Oz" the Rats and the Mini Rats found this cache. Dad did most of the hard work here and the detail of our find can be found in the Rats log. Sorry for the duplicate log but it takes nothing away from the find.

Thanks for showing us this spot on our trip.

Heading out of Perth on another weekend jaunt to learn about our new caravan and train the cat how she has to travel and find caches as a GeoCat on our trip around Australia.

Camping at Kokerbin rock this weekend. With a late arrival Friday we didn't have time to search for caches till today.

We locked up the van with the cat inside and set off on a tour to include Bruce Rock, Narembeen and Corrigin before returning.

When we realised this was to be a ZH nano we were a bit nervous before our arrival. But upon seeing this cute guy we were hopeful, thankfully Mr Felix came up with the goods in a reasonable time frame. Signed the log then went and checked out the nearby amphitheatre and scanned a few munzees too!

Looking forward to meeting other cachers at WA goes BIG in 2013 - GC45X55

[:(!] Went for day of geocaching with my darling geowife as we drove through the following towns. York, Quairading, Bruce Rock, Corrigin, Beverley, York and then going on home, picking up some caches along the way and this was one of them, parking our new geoGrand Vitara (3 door) as close as possible to GZ and we walked the 15 odd meters to the cache, on arrival at GZ we had the cache in hand in a matter of minutes.

WanderingAus wandered by during the annual Back To The Bush Veterans Reunion at Bush Rock, and this cache popped into view on TomTom. I swung in and parked, walked over, and worked out where the cache would be, but the muggle intensity was very high so I walked on by.

The next day I took another pass at it during the Saturday morning markets, but the muggle intensity was even higher. I returned to the sports ground/campground to spruce up for the dedication of a new memorial to honour all those from the Bruce Rock District who served during World War I and World War II and were Killed In Action.

After a moving ceremony and commemoration I passed by 'The Bunker' once more, and this time the coast was clear and I made an extremly quick and easy GAFF 0 find before retreating to the cover of the far corner of the building to sign the log. On returning the cache I was almost muggled by a young member of the Kelmscott/Pinjarra 10th Light Horse Ceremonial Troop, but I evaded capture and then went over for a chat with the young light horseman.

My Groundspeak find No 2,8887, overall find No 5,172, TNLNSL.

*Overall Experience: 2*
