Had a fantastic morning with fratra doing some caching and picking up some caches for barnzy and cravo thanks to the guys for the funHad morning
Thanks to all that have found the caches along the Anzac Centenary Trail. We’ve had great fun reading your logs, but the time has come to archive the series. Special thanks to team Fratra for collecting the containers for us. Happy caching.
Down in Albany and hit the road with ringtailposs and Falcon351 to grab the ACT series this morning. A nice drive with no dnfs on the series.
TFTC crabzy11 this is find # 4148 for us.

Muggles long weekend so we came down here with Bruce for some r'n'r and a little caching too
Didn't start as early as I would have like as still so sore from yesterdays 'A' series of caches (getting in and out of the car so many times buggers the knees to a point of having trouble walking) but had to soldier on to these today
Most were easy finds tho some had crept a little or a lot but only 2 dnfs where I think one may be missing and the other later in the day with too many obstacles for my knees to endure
TFTC Found this one out in the open so put at nearest tree
Sorry for generic logging

Went as a group with Muskcat83, JakeVL, and timkramer (a newbie to caching!). As we were camping close by (in Denmark), we thought we would travel to Albany and complete this trail. We knew from Facebook that it would be archived soon, so thought we should put a row of smileys on our map. Thanks for the effort gone into making these caches, and the dedication theme of the series. Overall we completed what is left of the series with one DNF and found two extra caches along the way.
With the warning that this series is being archived, and with us being in Denmark, we thought we would go do this series. Thanks for the caches, the trucks did scare us a couple of times. Only one DNF for the day.

Given the number of DNF logs, this cache appears to be in need of a welfare check by the CO.

We looked high, we looked low, we looked in, we looked out, but today there was no way we could work this one out!
Unfortunately this 2/2 didn't want to show itself to us today!
Thanks for the hunt anyway crabzy11.

Hi Cravo10 and Barnzy12 I DNF your ACT 08. There are too many trees and too many needles and my allocated search time has run out. TFTH.
We found ourselves down in Albany for a family wedding, as it has been a long weekend we also found we couldn't book two nights in a caravan park as they insisted on a minimum of three! We had a day free so decided to make the most of it and find some geocaches. Between showers of rain we jumped puddles, forded bog holes and managed to stay mostly dry right up until our last cache find!
Thanks to everyone who hide caches and helped make another geocaching memory for us.

I am in Albany following the WA Goes big event.
With wild windy weather. Rain interrupted geocaching play on a couple of occasions, so I did trickier caches during the day and came back and came back and did this series (solo) at night.
Thanks for the great series of friendly finds.
I think one may be missing due to the current roadwork (I didn't stop to check it but they were grinding tree stumps there when I drove past earlier in the day).

Catching up with some late logs, therefore this unfortunately is going to be one of 'those logs'. I apologize in advance for the generic log, A combination of limited time and too many to log dictates that a generic log is best. I have enjoyed the hunt and being outdoors in this great country of ours, partaking in a pastime that I thoroughly enjoy. I usually head out by myself, but I thank those that have had the misfortune of my company in some of these ventures.
Thanks crabzy11 for placing this cache.

Found on a fun morning caching with Maccamob, Micaparamedic and Ahomburg. This one was a bit of a haystack but we got there.
**Date: 28 May 2016
Time: 9:09 am
Find #7402**
Day eight of my across the Nullarbor, then to Perth via Denmark trip began with another convoy of Victorians, (Alansee, Mica Paramedic and Maccamob) aiming to complete the ANZAC Centenary Trail as well as anything than crossed our path. The weather looked like it was about to turn nasty, so a quick earlyish start was in order. We would sign as MAAM, AMAM or some combination of those letters.
Cache #8 Ripper

Found by Mary & David, in convoy with micaparamedic, Alansee and ahomburg (sometimes logged as a variation of A.M.M.A.), at 0909. Our thanks to crabzy11.
DNF on this one due to setting time limit on these type caches ran out of time but due to plenty of foliage on ground think may be buried a bit
pug002 found it 12/4/2016 on our trip south geocaching. TFTC crabz11 Albany has turned out the weather for us so far.
Found with mudbuzzie while in Albany for the long weekend. We wandered along this trail collecting the geo's as we drove along. TFTC
We joined forces with Everlasting this morning to find the ACT series of caches. It could have been the day but we found that a few of coords were a little off but all caches were found without too much drama. Thanks for the mornings entertainment crabzy11.

In the horrible heat of the midday sun, I struggled up the hill from Bakers Junction to find a few of the ACT trail on the bike
Good job they have ice-creams back at the junction
Finding these busy, roadside caches is a great idea on the pushbike.
No need to ride on the road, unless of course there is no traffic anywhere !!
At the first sign of a road train coming I was back on the gravel
And nobody noticed me poking around in the roadside scenery for the cache
Phew !! Easy find here [^]
Oh !! And a big, big, big thankyou for the lack of flies [^]

Come down to Albany especially to nail the ACT series with Loudy16 and get my 500th geocache. Sorry for the repeated log crabzy11 but Im sure you understand. Thanks for a good day caching!
been talking about heading to Albany to pick up the Act 50 series to complete 300 in a month. after speaking with Dallyho we decided on a weekend and make it a overnighter to get some other caches in TFTC

Found these a while ago with Allinaday but forgot to log them. Had a lot of fun looking for the caches with my little sister. We sort of had a competition to see who could find the most. Thanks for the fun and for the caches.
Out and about with two of the 3littleblondes today and we decided to make an effort and complete this series. It was a fun series to do, especially with the kids, as most were easy to find. There was a bit of healthy competition going on, when pointed in a general direction, to see who would be the first to spot the cache. All the caches found today were dry and in good condition. Some were very exposed, so we re-hid them slightly better. Replaced Ziploc bag on one log, which had its bag missing. Thanks for a great series and for the work that went into placing them.
Beautiful day in my home town of Albany. Finally have time to knock this series off my list of to do's. Out with 35degreesSouth and the 4 geokids.
Thanks for putting this series together
Get out there!

A great time was had by all looking for this cache. The geo-kids loved it because it was an easy find for them. TFTC

Wasn't planning on coming back to finish off this series today, but had some time to fill in, so back I came. All quick finds too. Thanks again crabzy11
Woohoo !!! Found it !!! Nice easy find with Dymesbury today. TFTC. Enjoyed this series.
GZ for this cache was about 6m off according to our GPSr today, but still a relatively quick find. TFTC crabzy11.
Set out early from Denmark to tackle this power trail. All caches found without problem and we enjoyed the wander along the country roads. Thanks crabzy11
A quick find and sign then onto the next cache in the series. Thanks to crabzy11 for the cache
After spending the morning ticking off a good number of the “Bushranger Series” on the way down to Albany, I ventured out late in the afternoon to do half of the “ACT” series. Most were easy to locate, a few caused a bit of head scratching and some were a bit out due to tree cover. A bonus today was the most caches found in one day since I commenced caching in 2008.
Found. TFTC. Tor and Betsy, the travelling Westies roaming WA at present. We are from Oxenford near the Gold Coast in Queensland and thoroughly enjoying the West.
With Geobet&tor. With thanks for the cache from Angus the great GeoWestie and his Carer wo are grey (and white) nomads currently travelling in, and enjoying, WA.
Set off today to complete all 50 of this ACT series with Ajjnr86.
At about half way it started heavily raining but it didn't stop us, we pulled through and are now able to put a smiley face on them all.
Sorry for the repetitive log, couldn't come up with 50 things to say.
Awesome Cache series and not too hard to find.

This series was the main reason for my trip down to Albany this weekend. Most of the caches were found easily although some were a bit trickier than others! Thanks for putting them out for others to find.

TFTC! After assisting with the setup of this series I am now logging a find to clear from maps. Thanks
Trees and trees, and some lovely birds! Birds of prey are out today, must be the winds.
There was a break in the weather, thus time to find a few caches. Nice easy find, though the road is busy.

We were out caching today to do the ACT series but we also picked up some caches inbetween. All caches were found with a few that took a bit of searching. TFTC
Spent ages looking at base of trees (from the hint) but geoman found much higher than the ground. Maybe another cacher put it higher after the placement? Anyway, thought it would save others the scramble by letting everyone know, the hint is not correct! TFTH!
Had a few hours spare so what better thing to do then finding some caches. Nice cache trail with most easy finds. TFTC
As part of helping place this series I am now logging the find as FTF has been taken.
After seeing this new series pop up i had an rdo today, so got stuck into it first thing finding all the caches on offer in this series plus a couple of others along the way. All the caches were quite easily found only a couple were out on my gps but a bit of quick thinking solved that problem. An enjoyable series and a quick way to rack up the count. TFTC's cravo10 and barnzy12
Rushed out after going to friends house for dinner to see if we couldn't get a few FTF's after seeing all these new caches available! Searched and found most caches quite easily with torch! Tfth!
While I was out for a lantern walk with the kids hubby texted - there are new caches out - on Chesterpass Rd!
Well, didn't take much convincing to drop the kids home and indulge in my passion... four ftfs, then I had to pick up another junior in town.
TFTCs and another few smileys on the map
