Love a bit of a bush trek, but we are still approx 40 metres from the cache & the growth is over our heads & quite dense, quick group confab & thats a no for us, so the cache will stay un-searched for today
It was really fun to find there wasn’t much in it but we put some more stuff in it
Day 4 Of our WAGB22 adventures: A great start to the day- a scenic country drive although a bit bumpy along a 4WD track. Cito event in Collie. Several more caches found and lots of laughs . What a full day . Thanks to all the COs for placing and maintaining their caches for others to find , tftc
Day 4 of caching our way around Bunbury and surrounds for WAGB22. Ive enjoyed the variety of hides down here. Thank you to the COs for placing these caches out here for others to enjoy. Apologies for the generic logs.
In Bunbury and Collie for WAGB2022! A massive weekend of caching and catching up with friends. A big thank you to all the COs that have placed caches for this weekend, as well as COs maintained by existing listings. You have made this weekend what it is! Apologies for the generic logs. Cheers Blaze169!
In the bunbury area for WAGB22, out with a few other caches to try our luck.

The March flies did not deter me now. On to the second cache for the day. Getting to a parking spot in the shade was easy enough. Then I had to look for an “in” towards the cache. A minute or two later I’d found an old trackway.
I walked with care along the old track until it opened up and I saw the object containing the GZ. The flies had left me alone on my trek through the thick scrub but were awaiting for me at the clearing.
The cache itself was found very quickly. Then I backed out to get a photo or two before retracing my steps. The walk overall was enjoyable.

Stayed at Collie for the weekend, The weather was a very nice day . [^]
Hidden date 2015 - 5 years ago - all bushland grow and terrain should be 2

Found on my way to Collie Motorplex to watch Deefa71 race vintage motorbikes. Tftc:)
Enjoyed (and endured) a mountain bike ride around the first 9 caches of this series. Eight quick finds plus a DNF at the old gate which is probably missing. The quarry at the far point was an interesting spot! Aimed to do all 19 of them but our cut across under the power lines just wasn’t rideable without an engine so we returned to the car (and a final find at the Eagles) with our tails between our legs. Thanks for placing this series!
Decided to grab a few caches while heading home from the long weekend to earn the new souvenirs.
Most caches were easy park and grabs.
Thanks Blaze169 for the hide.

Hi there Blaze169 - after the event at the Potters Gorge Campground last night and a good nights sleep (in the warm at the Caravan Park) we started just a little late looking for some spare batteries and a part for the caravan. After that we headed out with some serious caching in mind with difficulty up to 2.0 and terrain up to 4.5 . All in all a great days caching split in the middle with lunch at a local cafe. Thanks to Blaze169 for this cache - our find #5752.
Road tripping & finding a few caches, this was our next target... The gizmo was still going crazy & we circled around in head high bushes before discovering the cache, returning back to the car we were covered in scratches & blood from the vampire March flies attacking us Boy I hope this doesn't continue

Day 3 of the Southern Adventure with pommieparkin2 and megawat60.
After our night in Collie we hit the road and headed West. Here we did most of the AFL and greatly enjoyed the caches and the bushland. Thanks for this cache and series!

Having driven past the AFL series a few times now, we decided to make a bit of a day of it to get em all... Despite being Rugby Union followers
relatively easy find after a bit of a trek through the scrub. Cache was in good order.

Hi there Blaze169.
We found your cache **"#5 swans"** at 9:36:00 AM today. This was our 7th cache find today & this one brings our total find count to 15256.
Today's cache run started off by Ian nominating a cache some distance away from our camp site. Then we took a route that was mostly determined by the next closest cache according to our GPS. (Which turned out to be a series - very sneaky choice Ian).
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around the area & ended up finding quite a variety of container types, and sizes hidden along our route, some were where we thought they were, and some we had to search around for a little while. At the end of the day we found 26 caches today & DNF'd 2. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
Overall, today's cache run was very enjoyable, but please excuse our boilerplate log as we find it really difficult to craft individual logs when we attempt so many caches in a day.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found this cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** Container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

TFTC! A HUGE day out caching up a storm with Cravo10 in the lovely south of this great state of ours, namely in the coal mining town of Collie.
We met up in Pinjarra, and grabbed three of the Multi caches in town, a lovely LKA which provided a nice walk around the historic cemetery and another instalment in the well known and highly regarded Zoom in caches. After completing the multi caches we headed down south west highway grabbing the few remaining caches we had on the highway that are either new or we've missed on previous visits.
We made our way along coalfield highway towards the collie township, completing the Footy Teams series as we went. We encountered some neat camo caches, with all caches being nice quick and easy finds, unfortunately a number of the micro type caches have had a tough winter and need new log books due to water and mould. Still a great series and well put together by blaze169.
We then made our way into Collie, with not much to find around town as we've visited twice before and there doesn't seem to be any active cachers in town anymore to publish new caches which is a real shame.
We went around town collecting stuff on the outskirts of town including wet and wild which we managed to grab in the 4wd and the EArth cache which was a nice addition to the area in a very deserving spot.
We found our way back along the highway to pinjarra after amassing 35 odd finds and a solid days effort, can't wait to come back down this way to complete the ready player one series, the snake island t5 cache and the new caches in Harvey which seems to be booming currently. Until next time, thanks to the local COs for their caches.

TFTH spent the day out with Barnzy12 again today as he had planned a trip to Collie and needed a driver again, let's face it I wanted to come along. We met in Pinjarra and made our way out from there. After completing the AFL series we made a few other finds around the place and after a few hours we then headed back to Pinjarra.
Most were found in good condition TNLN.

I was down in Collie for the weekend for a mountain bike race, and after practise this afternoon I had some time to come and find a few caches so I thought I would start on the footy series.
Getting into the swing of things now, a quick and easy find here.
Thanks for the cache Blaze169!

Down this way today for some caching.
Hubby and I did well with 28 finds and no DNFs.
All caches found easily and no slithering creatures were spotted, thank goodness.
Quick find in the beautiful old red gum tree.
Left an extagz here for the next finder.
Find #18 for us today.

Muggle had the day off work and has a 4WD so I hatched a plan tho I did have to tell him since he was the driver . And thankfully no whinging or whining was heard , think he may have enjoyed himself
Since we had no power at home we left a bit earlier than planned, went and grabbed Rach2 (naturally) and off we headed
I did want to start at #1 Freo first but easier to just follow a more normal route and not zig zag our way around.
I thought it may have been the big hollow log but it wasn't but was close by

I was in the area today so decided to out grab this series.
All caches were found with good coords and used the hints a couple of times.
Some of the tins are going to need some attention. With the notebook and plastic bag, in there, the lids aren't clipping down tight and done are getting damp.

Gps wanted to play games here but I decided to ignore it and had cache in hand soon after. Tftc
We met up with richlink this morning to do the Footy Series befor we had to head home again. We had a great time in the rain, thanks Blaze169.
Despite the continuous wet weather today, we met up with iluvtrekking at 0830 to attempt the Footy series. Glad to say all were found and we enjoyed the variety of hides and containers. Thank you Blaze169
After looking in all the obvious places I decided to look at the hint and made the find soon after TFTC
After attending the CITO event in Bunbury with redlipsandunicorns (and the 2 grandkids) my mission was to tackle the footy caches. wasnt sure how i was going to go in the Toyota aurion but overall i managed most of them. I couldnt get to the last cache at the end of each track as the Aurion couldnt take the deep ruts and pot holes but most caches were found and i really liked your magnetic caches in the bush. I will have to come back down with the 4x4 to get the ones i missed TFTC Blaze169
enjoying the bush and getting involved in this series thanks Blaze169 for the cache
