Logs
Couple of days off work this week, so making the most of a wet day I headed out to some newly published caches near Northam, instead of doing the jobs I should have been doing.
Quick find after walking along the track. Log need replacing, but I was on foot and it was raining so didn’t have the opportunity to replace it. Next finder should bring a log to assist the CO. Cheers jasenjanine!

Found while staying a few days in Northam. Enjoying the caches on a overcast day
My GPS initially had me searching in the wrong place but I should know by now to trust my gut. TFTC!
After finding a cache at the top of the hill, one at the bottom seemed like a good idea. Parking was easily done. Some galahs overhead had a bit to say about my turning up.
The rain increased. Not that that made any difference to the current situation. The path was soaked, and so too my feet after a while. I trudged down the path, spending much of the time add to the side of it.
Mercifully the cache was spotted in the first place I looked.

Day 2 of WAGB22 week, and went to finish the GG Series in Northam and cleaned up the town of Northam, then cached to Toodyay and made a huge dent in that town.
Made 51 finds in total with 1 DNF today.
Thanks to all the CO’s for placing maintaining their hides.

Found it- the sheet is full of names, so couldn’t write. Will need to remember to pack more paper and pencils
Last leg of the KEP with MitchDem this morning, nice easy find as it was on the ground, logs full, TFTC
Out and about finding smiley's with BJA3 on our Fathers Day pseudo weekend. TFTC jasenjanine!
Last cache in the last light of the day. I would not want to be walking along here in snake season! This appears to be an awesome series, I’d love to do more, maybe on a future visit. Thanks jasenjanine.
Lol at the title. A dog wasn’t pleased to see me riding past but it was thankfully stuck on its side of the fence. Thanks for the cache.
Snuck in another before the sunset. This reminds me of my childhood spent walking the pipeline out the back track of our place.
Thanks for bringing me here jasenjanine

After Mr dimor grabbed a few hours sleep yesterday after finishing work at 8.00am we headed off for a few days away so I could claim the new Science souvenirs, with plans to stay in Northam for two nights and then Bruce Rock for another two.
What I thought was a slow start to our geocaching morning became even slower when we drove through town and saw a sign that said the markets were on. Naturally caching could wait while we had a wander around, ran into Geotrakka there so stopped for a chat.
Must have been close to lunch time before we headed to the first cache.
Being unable to cycle or walk the track we are only getting ones we can drive relatively close to, a quick walk down to this one and an even quicker find. TFTC

Didn’t know about this bike track before coming up to Northam, so without my bike found a few of the caches on foot with the geodog.
Hi there jasenjanine. I was out with Mistraluna for a couple of planned days of Geocaching around the FOTT trail near York. We had both worked out finals for all caches and using the Nuvi and both GPS's, all caches were found quickly - and the containers and logs are in good condition. TN, LN, SL. Thanks to jasenjanine for this cache - our find 8318
Headed to Northam early this morning and spent a few hours pick up some more caches along The Kep.
TFTC jasenjanine this is find # 8499 for us.

My second cache found while cycling along the Kep Track, and I've lost my first pen already! I'll have to remember to look for it on the way back. Thanks for the cache.
Quick easy find. Didn’t know this track existed! Thanks for bringing it to my attention. TFTH
pug002 found it 25th June 2019, found the Fence Line one and still had a few moments before appointment. TFTC jasenjanine
Many thanks to [@dezzabills](http://coord.info/PR8VCPD) for replacing the container at this one . We owe you one mate .
All good to go again.

Sad to say, but all good things must come to an end, or so they say!! Found this one early Monday morning after packing up camp and hitting the road for towards home, making a rather long day of it, stopping here, there and everywhere, hunting down smileys along the way. Hadn't planned on doing any more of this series, but seeing as how we were passing, we though "why not?" Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for the rest of us to come and find jasenjanine.
PS The lid of the container is missing. Replaced as found, though not sure how it will cope when the next rains come.

We didn't have time to properly explore the Kep, but luckily we could grab a few of these this morning before we drive home. TFTC jasenjanine
Was out caching on my own today after the brunch and came out here to grab some caches in the area. Thanks for this cache jasenjanine which was a very quick and easy find. Have planned on doing the whole length with a couple of other cachers on mountain bikes. Oh and replaced the container as the other one was perished.
(catch up log)
As we had a large amount of cash and other valuables in the car we didn't want to leave it for very long so I decided to stay with the vehicle while Chwiliwr went for a walk to do the nearby multi and the other traditions west of where we had parked. BigRyanFamily and ChrisRG, who we saw at the previous cache, had arrived near to where we parked so I continued with them for the rest of the caches.
After finding the multi we returned the way we had come to do the two traditions that we had bypassed on the way to the multi. This was the second of them.
Once at ground zero the cache was soon found. Log signed and cache returned as found.

Out for an afternoon of exercise and caching with BRF while at the WAGB19 event. We had walked up from the parking area at the start of the KEP track. We were joined by Chwiliwr who was on the same mission for the multi and he found this one. The lid for this one is damaged.
Signed the log and then posed for the photo for the BRF log.

A quick find here, unfortunately the lid is broken here which could be a problem in winter. TFTH!
The lid is broken, probably sun damage , quick find on a sunny day . Interesting to see this pipeline close up TFTC

Making use of our extra day in Northam prior to WAGB2019, by having an enjoyable walk along the KEP.
First find here! Lid is a bit cracked and may let in moisture when it eventually rains. TFTC jasenjanine!

We headed out to continue on the KEP series and any others along the way today with Neva2old, happy to say we came up trumps and claimed the smilie here TFTC
Out and about with Parkacruz getting some more of the kep done and some others along the way a quick find here tftc
Today we spend the day caching in Northam to get a bit further with the LGA challenge. It was a great day with many great caches . It was hot for us too, felt hotter than what it actually was. Interesting development planned for this area. TFTC
NEF. Why is it that every time we make plans to come out here it's so flipping hot! I hold the C.O. Personally responsible for prejudice against poms. TFTC jasenjanine
An awesome day out in Northam to explore the town and find some caches.
Short walk from the parking spot, found this one easily.

TFTC! Had a day out caching with Cravo10 to collect some of the new Toodyay Rd caches, before exploring the Toodyay township and then continuing on our journey to Northam where we picked up a couple of caches we haven't managed to get to on recent visits including an archived cache at the information bay just outside of town which was very well found by Bristag (read the associated logs - don't think it will ever go missing again!!) after completing the majority of our chores in Northam we continued on towards wundowie where we had a couple of caches we were desperate to find wundowie wonderland, which was quite amazing when you linked what we saw in person and what was on the aerial maps on the iPhone, simply amazing. Maybe jasenjanine can organise a nice event for us all go see the masterpiece!!
Then we went and tried for the highly rated BBF the drawer field puzzle cache by jasenjanine who never disappoint with their nicely constructed caches! Won't say much on here but it's well worth a look, leave yourself an hour to get it and you only need one or two fingers, no force required. Fav point for that one!
Great day out with only a dozen ish finds, but happy to add to the stats. Thanks to the local COs

Thank you! I set out with papillon367, Photo-Play and Bindi01 to cycle the Kep track between Bakers Hill and Northam. This was found after a short search.
Teamed up with Photo-Play, ullyssia and Bindi01 to tackle the KEP track by bike between Bakers Hill and Northam. We found this cache after a short search and kept moving. Thank you for the hide and for a great series jasenjanine.
I had been keeping an eye on this area for some time now and I finally decided to head here with my cycle and fill in an RDO. My main goal was grabbing as many of 'The Kep' series as I could but I was also able to get the smilies on a few nearby caches as well. Thanks to the cache owners for the placements and I apologise in advance for the generic logs .
