Day 1, heading to Toodyay for the IGD weekend with BJA3. Thanks for placing and maintaining this hide for us and others to enjoy!
Found with TeamBarritts on day one of caching during the IGD weekend August 2024. Tftc!!
A day out for some solid caching, trails running from Goomaling to Northam and return, with some Northam caching as well. Signing as SAA, for sacada, albida, Aquilus1. Caches found with good coords and in good order. Great day out, thanks for the cache!
A caching trip from Canberra, ACT to Cape York, Qld and then around the gulf to East Arnhem Land, NT then over the top of WA and down to Perth.Interesting detours to Thursday Island, Mabuiag Island, Mornington Island, Doomadgee, Hells Gate, Nhulunbuy, Wadeye, Litchfield National Park, Wyndham, the Gibb River Road, Monkey Mia, Meekatharra, Wiluna, Laverton, Warburton, Kargoorlie, Westonia & Goomalling.TFTC. Signed as SAA for sacada, albida & Aquilus1. A great day grabbing a power trail and lots around the Northam area.
WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 70 - Goomalling Day. The day was a little overcast, but it has been a very cold night. Not freezing, but cold enough. I was joined by Sacada and Aqulus1 today as we did a trail south to Northam. We did some Labs in Northam and a few caches which were along the way or near th labs. Lunch was at one of the Northam bakeries before getting back in the car to head back to Goomalling via the second half of the cache trail. A great day with friends normally on the other side of the country. The evening turned wet and I stayed inside to cook dinner.In amongst the trail caches there were a few others that also went smoothly. From below this bridge does not look as neat as it does from above. Plenty of nooks and crannys, but the decent sized cache was soon found.Thanks for the cache Thejman8248280.32 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 2010 Antarctica A#187**Albida**
Long weekend road trip out to the Wheatbelt with the main aim to finish off the GG series that I started last year. Of course there were also plenty of extras thrown in too, including this one Parked up at the suggested spot and then took an easy walk towards the water. Great coords meant I ducked under at almost the exactly right spot! A very fast find here - TFTC

Full time nomads stopping in Toodyay for a while.
Headed out before it gets too hot to cache. Fun series that reminded us of our own families.

Found this one while out with MitchDem to finish off the GG series, nice easy find, TFTC
Went on a fun caching hunt today, together with ilook4geo and had a great time. This was a nice easy cache find in the expected sort of position. All is good with the container and log. Thanks for putting this cache into play go to Thejman82.
Kept goingplaces2 company on an enjoyable caching run today. Cache found, log was signed, all was replaced as found. Job done! Job was also made easier as there was a good parking place near the hide. Thanks for this adventure.
Day 1 of WAGB22 week, the plan was to go to Northam and do a few along the way including KEP Series near Clackline and the walk up the hills in Bobakine Nature Reserve. Did some GG Series but had to miss a few and some missing in the roadworks sections.
66 Finds and 4 DNF, and 1 not willing to swim in the Avon.
Thanks to all the CO’s for their hides and maintaining the series.

Sad that I didn’t find this one, I thought it was on the bridge, didn’t have the time to go around to look below. Thanks anyway
Came home from work and B12 put the call out to C10 and myself to head out for a quick drive out to Jennacubine to grab a FTF that was up for grabs. We met up at Cockburn Central just before 2000hrs and hit the frog and toad.
Grabbed this cache on the way back into town. Took a short hint before I spotted it. Cheers Thejman82!

Followed photoplay around this series. I had already planned a day in Northam today and the publication of this series meant some original caches were crossed off the list to make time. Thanks for the series.
Outnabout exploring. Nearly gave up as it was very drippy and muddy following the rain.
The photo is possibly a previous cachet taking a direct route.

What better way to spend a long weekend than packing up the car and heading off on a road trip? We made plans to meander our way to Northam and camp there overnight before setting sail for home. This was one of the caches we had targeted for the day and we also had some GCA caches, Waymarks and Adventure Labs on the radar. Cheers and TFTC.

A quorum of the Fott was here so we are retrospectively claiming the find. If that's an issue let us know.
Out and about with SVKR_WA to finish off the WAGB19 weekend in Northam. We were joined by AlliedOz here and it took a few minutes before the cache was spotted by SVKR_WA.

It's WA Goes Big day!
Out on an early morning geocaching run with the machman.

Good hiding spot! A quick find here during the WAGB19 week-end. Thank you for the cache Thejman82.
An interesting spot, someone had camped very recently, the fire was still smouldering. A nice easy find. TFTC
Found a recent log from a considerate muggle, maybe related to the bridge workers or campfire. See attached.

Took a run out to Northam and york with Redlipsandunicorns to pick up a few caches. Didnt get all of them on the list as it took us ages to get to northam with the traffic. The ones we did look for were all found with the cache of the day being Aviators Delight which took ages to find with the great camo job. A pleasant drive which we will do again on the weekend for WAGB. Thanks to all the CO,S for the caches
Out on a caching run with Ooh Yeh today, to continue trying to close in on my magical 2000th find, hopefully before WA Goes Big. Nice quick find here, in this nice little location, log signed and cache replaced as found. Really enjoyed the day out in the area, even more so as the geo-baby stayed happy for us haha! Tftc!
This is find #1965 for us!

Yay, found it! Husband wasn’t keen on the concept until we went looking, he found it
Thanks for taking me here. I only found the cache on my second lap as it was so well hidden away. Even under a bridge the coordinates are spot on.
GPS was denting us into the bush. Hubby found it then gave us hot and cold clues
Thank you
Thank you

We headed out today to claim some more smileys through the Avon valley, we had a mixture of caches with three fantastically executed field puzzles being the highlight of our day, we had a couple of DNF’s for the day but will get back to hopefully rectify that soon, all in all a great day out TFTC
