Thanks

Quick find here today on my way down to the Collie Motorplex. Unfortunately the container is broken and the logbook was found soaked on the ground. Will need some CO attention. Tftc

Found but the lid is wrecked and it’s full of water. Gunna need a new container out here. Tftc

Heading back to Perth now - getting some caches on the way!

All logs stamped: *tm/ww NZ*

Today TaurusSix and I are heading to Perth for things other than geocaching, however we decided to take the South West Highway route so we could collect some geocaches along the way, the one’s north of Pinjarra that we have not yet collected. It is a beautiful sunny day for a drive, the road was very busy so stealth needed at times and also a constant eye out for snakes. It’s nice to create a few more yellow smilies on this stretch of road. As well as pick up a few Adventure Labs and bonus’s.

This is our sixth cache find of the day along the SW Hwy. we continued along the off piste from the last cache . Nice big old tree for gz once there it was a nice quick find as it was on the ground. We replaced it in the most obvious spot. Now to get back onto the Hwy. Thanks for the cache Keego and Chil .

Found it! TFTC

When I pulled over I thought the cache was closer to the road and left the phone in the car, initial search turned up nothing so went to grab to see if o was on the right track… nope.
Walked over to the actual GZ and found the cache sitting on the ground in the open.
Have placed it back with a bit of cover to conceal it from the elements.

Thanks Keego_and_Chil for placing SWH...urch for me and others to find.
I added my name to the log at 23:57 on 13/8/2022.
This is find number 5502 for me.

Thanks for the geocache, it was very fun

Quick stop on the way home from Pinjarra

Found whilst on the way home after a day out and about caching in Bunbury and Collie with I C Nothing and Meme28. TFTH!

With a unofficial geocaching event in Collie this weekend Meme28 Kapelula and myself hatched a plan to escape the city for the weekend. We started early this morning after staying in collie overnight. Our is aim to find some caches to fill our challenge needs, old caches, high favourite caches and just whatever else takes our fancy. This cache was found in good condition thanks to CO’s for placing these caches for our enjoyment.

So while I was rummaging around in the thick green grass while the brown cows were watching at the fence, ICNOTHING found it within seconds. Hmmmph oh well another good find for the team Kapelula included!!!

Found this little geo on the way home from Pinjarra today. TFTC

Found it.

Grabbing some of the SWH series, we stopped to add this one to the collection. Another quick park and grab. We signed your log returned your cache back to where it lives. With the sun now gone! It’s time to get the geopooches home and fed. TFTC Keego_and_Chil.

Found with axell33 and the geopups as we add some more smilies to this great series! Thanks for the cache and greetings from Baldivis

Quick find here today. TFTC

Found today. TFTC nice and easy

I’ll admit that many a night I, too have been kept up late trying to solve a number of Urchs’ puzzles. Most attempts are fruitless but I enjoy the challenge nonetheless. Thanks Keego_and_Chil for placing this here in honour of Urch

Awesome thanks out with PollyMichele and Geotrakka.

Day 3 with Ebenie & Geotrakka nice early start with the sun up today thanks

Out nice and early to continue the SWH weekend. Found this nice and quick TFTC

Found it. TFTC Keego_and_chil. Came down here to do a few more of the South West highway Trial. This was another quick find here today

Found it. TFTC.

Tftc with Egl013

Tftc easy find our with wild brumby74

We headed out to collect some more smilies around and along the SWH today, we are happy to say that we came up trumps here, most of today's finds were quick, we loved the variety of caches that we came across, thanks to all CO's that placed these caches for us to find TFTC

Such a nice day that I thought that I would try and knock off some more of the SWH caches and a few others on the way. Most were found quite easily although a few took a little longer. It was so green down here with lots of fat cows and some beautiful wildflowers to look at. Only a couple of DNFs so a good day Tftc

Out on a caching run today, down to Pinjarra, first day of annual leave so of course have to put it to good use! Nice quick find on this cache, whilst on our drive back home. TFTC

Found with lynpatnat

Tftc - nice quick find which is what we needed as Driving Mrs. D. Is just about over caching by now after having to go and find the poor deserted toaster we left at our church youth camp yesterday

Happy to turn our frown into a smiley here.
A lovely day trip to Waroona, Yarloop, Harvey and anything in between cleaning up some caches.
TFTC Keego_and_Chil this is find # 3358 for us.

Found it

Nice quick find

15th for the day - TFTC

#12692. Day 11 of our WA holiday and our 6th day based in Rockingham. Robmc and I decided to tackle the SWH Series between Jarrahdale and Pinjarra. We managed a nice run of 44 caches before lunch and then the wheels fell off somewhat as we made our way home via Mandurah. So many caches were not viable so we didn't feel like wasting time searching. It was hard to find some caches that were still in play.

Pleased to have an easier find after a DNF at the last one.

Thanks Keego_and_Chil

Day Eleven of our holiday in Western Oz.
Bettyboo3747 and I have spent the morning on the South West Highway between Jarrahdale and Pinjarra, and the afternoon trying to find a cache that still exists on the way back to Rockingham.

We have done several of urch's caches, and this one was a nice easy find after the last DNF.
Thanks, Robmc.

Decided to try and get all the caches on the west side of SWH on way home..

TFTC..

Thank you! I decided to head down to Pinjarra for lunch and head home via the south west highway. Happy to make the find here.

It was buried in the middle of what had become a mound of composting wood/ant nest. I assume because it hadn't been found in a while nature and time had decided to try swallow it up. I was sure it was in that spot because of previous logs so kicked around the top of the composting heap and spotted the telltale blue of sistema clips.

I've since placed it a few meters closer to the listed coordinates as I thought that was more appropriate than burying it again.

Admittedly I didn't try too hard at this cache because the weather was being particularly unpleasant and I didn't want to get too drenched while expanding the search area as the most recent finder reported. Hopefully when I return next time it won't be nearly as wet and I get to have a good go at finding it!

No luck here today

No luck today

Sorry

Hi there Keego_and_Chil.

We found your cache **"SWH...urch"** at 2:27:00 PM today. This cache makes our find count 14878.

Our plan for the day was to complete some of the SWH series, together with a few others that were also close to the highway. We thoroughly enjoyed our drive attempting caches to the left on our way north and picking up the ones we missed on the return trip. We found a variety of container types and sizes hidden along the way, and also managed to pick up a couple of trackables.

Today we found 35 caches & DNF'd 3. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 9m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge if the container was large enough.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

No luck for us today

No find for us here.

Losing my touch. Will return another day.

Found it. Bloody termites... found it with geo hottie...

Found it with geobabe Bartman76

Making my way back to Perth to fly home tomorrow after having a great weekend at Fairbridge/Pinjarra for the WAGB event. This is a great series and help me remember some of the cache names over the weekend. Thanks to the COs.

Geocaching has taken me on many adventures over the years all over Australia and overseas. It has also introduced me to a brilliant and diverse group of people, many of whom are now close friends.

Today I was lucky enough to be out and about so I targeted this cache.

Sorry for the late log, but thanks for adding to the adventure!


Thanks Keego_and_Chil for placing this cache.

Having failed here yesterday (low blood sugar maybe?) stopped today with supervisors hoping that it would bring us luck. The Chief had it in seconds, don't ya love/hate that! TFTC

Walked around and around.
Lots of trampled grass threw us off lol

Found this with geowife Alikat66 and Avenger 63 tftf

Tftc with geowife and Avenger 1963

Had us stumped for 10mins. Look through EVERYTHING!

A quick find along the road. Tftc

Out night caching with Moneydork and Semik after the WA Goes Big 2016 Dinner. TFTC.

**this is a late log** I have recently made a major upgrade to my GSAK license and found this lovely feature that automatically tells me what caches I have marked found in GSAK but never logged on geocaching.com!! Yay, Clyde, you can have my money anytime! The caches I am logging in this batch were ones I found during WA Goes Big 2016. In an interest to get completely caught up, I am logging my past finds in bulk. I still have work to do after this, as I need to locate my notes from all of my earthcaches, but once those are in, I should be very close to current. I appreciate all the effort you go through to create and place your hides and do not for one second take it for granted, I just need to get caught up so I can return to my once pleasant logs. Cheers!

The WA Goes Big 2016 event provided the perfect excuse for me to pack up the wife and travel across to get some caches in WA. I have previously cached WA in 2008 (Perth to Geraldton and back) and 2011 (Kunninara) so it was great to head south from Perth this time.
This series was close to where we stayed during the WA goes big event at Pinjarra.
It was great to have such a great range of quality caches close to the event. TFTC.

Time: 2:15 pm
Find #7600**

Day fifteen of my across the Nullarbor, then to Perth via Denmark trip. After attending the WAGB2016 event, I headed out with Alansee and Mica Paramedic to go and find some local caches.

This one was fun, on approach there were some rather suspicious people hanging about. It turns out they had been there for 15 or 20 minutes. A very short time later, mica paramedic had the very well hidden cache in hand.

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

*12th / 13th November 2016 - GC65688 - Anglesea - Great Ocean Road - Victoria*

Found on a fun day caching with Micaparamedic and Ahomburg. We found almost all caches including a couple that had not been found for a while, and a couple of clever hides.

No joy today

Found while visiting the area from Victoria and after attending the WA goes big event, this on took us a little while but thankfully after being joined by other teams it was soon in hand, Thanks for the cache

Found the elusive small cache with the Cherad, micaparamedic, Alansee, ahomburg, and OzMom teams during WAGB 2016 event. It was micaparamedic that eventually found the cache. TFTH Keego_and_Chil.

I'm glad this puzzle wasn't as hard or didn't take as long as some of urch's puzzles. Was an easy find just not in the obvious spot. TFTC Keego and Chil

Took a drive out to do some more of the SWH series. It was a warm day, but perfect for car hopping along the highway. On my way back home. This one had me stumped for a few minutes. Found after reading logs and further searching, my gps was out 4 metres - but mine is usually out a few metres anyway. TFTC Keego and chil:)

Looked everywhere, could not find it.

Drove up to the West OZ Geocaching Meeting in Gosnells and decided to leave early and find a few caches along the way. Unfortunately it started raining heavily with a thunderstorm arriving quickly. So geoP had to make a quick dash out of the car to find the cache. Cache spotted quickly, signed and rehidden. tftc sl tnln

Tftc Cheers

Found cool TFTC

Had a few hours spare this morning so decided to hit the highway and grab a few SWH caches and a couple of Mundijong caches needed to qualify for a challenge cache. Lots of trucks on the road today so it was good that there were good pull offs for each cache.

This one took a long time as my GPSr had me about 10m from where I eventually found the cache. Ended up with GPSr and iPhone trying to locate the cache without any advantage from either. Resorted to walking around and poking in any likely location until I found the cache.

Thanks for the cache Keego_and_Chil [^] - cache was good and dry.

This was cache # 3 of 10 and 2 today for a total cache count of 2883.

Tftc nice easy find

Tftc nice find with blaze169 and grene11 on our way down the SWH grabbing geos

Spent the day collecting SWH geos with baconfamily33 blaze 169 and geogranny. Most of the caches were park and grabs but a few stumped us and we got a few DNF's
TFTC

Out with Mistraluna today and she generously stopped so I could locate this cache.

TFTC. Keego_and_Chil

Found it this time. Last time we were looking in the tree.
Thanks

Headed for home along a rarely used road, passing many caches along the way, but no time to stop for them. However had to pull over for this particular one that I have been meaning to get to for the last few years! Found after a bit of a search.
Thanks for this cache in particular, Keego_and_Chil.

Good quick find TFTC

Good quick find TFTC very friendly cows =)

Originally logged under family name of clan-wallace now slowly transitioning to new name

Did this one start life in a nasty, soggy, rotting spot or is it the victim of cach creep? Oh well we found it anyway. TFTC

One word for this area - Ugh! Not a pleasant place to put a cache that is supposed to be a tribute to another cacher. Maybe it has been moved from the original placement. So glad that Clan-Wallace found it, my coordinates were taking me to a nicer place.

we borrowed a friends car and set out early to attack some more of this series. had a good day retreating home with 48 finds for the day. so mikirst and myself were very happy with that outcome . tftc
