Found while staying and exploring the town. Took a minute to refocus and trip over this one. TFT+
On our travels we found ourselves in Tom Price and took the opportunity to grab a few caches, it took us a moment to get our geo senses on this one but soon had the cache in hand, thanks for placing this fun cache
Found this cache whilst on our two month adventure throughout central Australia and remote parts of WA.Grabbed a few quick caches in town before heading back to Karijini for the day. Not where I expected.Thanks to all the COs for adding to our adventure. TFTC
Found with Crafty Dusty and the geopooches on our road trip around Aus from Sydney. Cheers!
Found on our visit into Tom Price as gorges in Karijini are closed due to rain. Like the big truck and other displays. TFTC
Found with e.gregory1 on a trip from Adelaide to north-western Western Australia. After staying at Miliyanha Campground in Millstream Chichester National Park for the previous two nights we traveled to Tom Price to spend the afternoon finding a few caches along the way and around the town before rolling my swag out along the track to Karijini. A very quick find here after reading some logs. Thanks for the cache Happy1956!
Found on a trip to Western Australia from Adelaide with FeatherWaite. We camped in Millstream-Chichester National Park again last night before heading down to Tom Price and Karijini National Park.A quick find here.Thanks Happy1956 for the cache.
Found while killing time waiting until I could check in to my accommodation.At first I focused on the wrong object, then found it after expanding my search and checking a few other spots.If my maths is right (its probably not!), I could do almost 45,000km in my Subaru with this fuel tank.SL TFTC
Had a good look all around the mine cart but no luck. Didn't even get to do the extra challenges, couldn't even manage the find! ?????????
Arrived back into town, and the area was nice and quiet, so a quick f indeed and photo. Sorry, I'm useless at Maths so no hope on the consumption estimate. Tftc
Found it on my 20 minute break took a couple of minutes but sometime you need to look outside of the box to see what you are looking for. Have fun on the hunt The first for 2024.
Back on holidays chasing the sun, travelling around and collecting a few caches on our way. Found your cache easily and it was in good condition. Thanks for adding to the enjoyment of holiday.
Coordinates were pretty seen close for us! Ground zero and a few steps and geo brain on got us the find! TFTH SL
Not the easiest find, took a few minutes, co-odds are slightly out. Car can travel ~24000km!!
Found it. Not where I expected to, but a reasonably easy find in an interesting location.
I can drive approximately 1850km on 1 tank of fuel towing my caravan. Unfortunately I was there by myself and was unable to take a really good photo. TFTC.

We estimate about 21,500 kms on one tank. We could do our whole trip. We found this cache, but not where we expected.
Well that took a new strategy- a few metres out gave a few options - the last resort revealed the treasure - BINGO BANGO thanks to patient geo-driver! Now it’s on to Karijini after a look at the massive TONKA. TFTC and the cheeky fun!
Sorry for the late log.Heading East now, then we will be heading south. Not where I thought it would beTB visited on its travels.TFTC

We've been camped up near Hamersley Gorge and tonight we're heading to Dales campground but first some shopping to replenish the stores. This was a great place to parkour caravan while we sorted out things and the nearby cache was a bonus!

It was a very tricky cache to find. 25000 km for our car is what we think is roughly what we could drive. Here is our photo: (below)
Great cache and yes, about 5mtrs off coordinates.. Great find, but tricky so look close lol
THANX

Wow! Super hard to find, and a great adventure. My friends Craig Adela Cruz and Jamie Douglas and I Emily Weightman spent 4 hours looking for it! Huge thanks to the creator of the geocache and good luck to everyone else!
What a huge vehicle, just filled our tank with diesel at the Shell station, we are heading direction Exmouth,TFTC
Busy place with lots of caravans and cars around. Nice easy find when not distracted by all the nice machinery on display. Thanks for placing this cache for our enjoyment.
