We are on our way back over to the West for a friends memorial service in Geraldton but this trip we are taking our time , enjoying the drive and picking up a few caches and taking in the scenery. We are mainly concentrating on Ad Labs, Earth caches and Virtual's as these don't give you any muggle problems. Of course there will be others in between.We pulled up here to grab a ad lab waypoint but we're not going to go past a trad so close without at least having a look. A few muggles were about but none that were a real problem and after a little bit of search the cache was in hand and we happily added our name to the log and returned everything as found. Many thanks WebblyWA for showing us this great location, we're off to have a coffee now..

Taurus Six and I have taken an extra day off work to make it a five day Easter Break. This is day four and another fabulous day staying in and exploring the beautiful Swan Valley Region. We have indulged in sufficient wineries the last couple of days so today we thought we would venture a little bit further a field and head to the hills area for geocaching and exploring . One area on our radar today was the cluster of five challenge caches near Gidgegannup , then we came south and completed a full circuit including Parkerville, Stoneville, Mount Helens , Sawyers Valley, Mundaring and Darlington then back through Midland as we headed back to our accommodation near Upper Swan . It was a beautiful warm autumnal day , the surrounding bush was fabulous and all and all it was a great day of geocaching .This is our seventh cache find of the day in this beautiful area . We pulled up near gz but had to wait for muggles to go before we could search for the cache. Clever hint soon had cache in hand . Thanks for the cache .

A quick find here.

Today it is the WAGB 2020 event. With both of us in a tight timeframe and not being able to spend the whole day at the event, Kyzabra and I headed out early towards the event.

The plan is to grab a few caches along the way and pop into the event at start tone, stay a little
While and then head off to our respective busy afternoons.

Always great to see everyone at an event and WAGB tends to bring a greater number of cachers out to meet.


WebblyWA SVKR_WA is happy to have found your cache Toodyay Trek -Gidge Picnic today at 10:02:13 21 Nov 2020. This brings my find count to 4525

WebblyWA - Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment. We love travelling and visiting some places that we would only visit due to this game.

Parked nearby and wandered over to GZ, cache was easy to find with the right angles as there was no cover for the container.

After signing I put everything back where I had found it and sprinkled some leaves for some extra concealment.

Thanks WebblyWA for placing this cache for me to find, this is find number 2545 for me.

After the leaving the two events the Better Half and I did a tour of some caches that I hadn't found on previous trips up this way. We met another couple of cachers at this cache just finishing signing the log.

We signed the log and returned the cache to where it indicated as being found by the other cachers.

We had a trip planned for this neck of the woods in March but the ‘Rona virus put a halt to that and we have only just got around to booking some free time to get away from home. This cache was one we targeted for our two day mini-adventure, cheers and TFTC.

G’day there WebblyWA, I was in this area today and found your cache Toodyay Trek -Gidge Picnic GC6N530. I added my name to the log book at 11:38 am on 8 October 2020. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

This was a DNF for me last year (MIA) and has been spoiling my map ever since! Each time I've been past since then it has been taunting me... until I saw recently that the CO had performed some maintenance and it was back in play Smile With the lovely weather today I headed out to spend the afternoon at Noble Falls with the geohound and of course stopped off here on the way to have a look. Headed straight to the GZ I searched previously and this time after a little rummage the cache revealed itself Smile Great to finally put a smiley here! No problems here for me today, it was a nice easy find - TFTC
 
23-Aug-19
Brisk find on a wet day.
Tftc.
 
07-Aug-19
Having picked the wrong area to search last week (which to be fair did match the hint) I returned today in the knowledge that the cache was waiting to be found. I adjusted my search to another area which also matched the hint and made a swift find. Left my pathtag. TFTC
 
31-Jul-19
GZ was easily worked out. I started at the bottom and worked my way up. I know where I’d have hidden it and I reached in as far as I could with the provided elevation but didn’t feel anything (all 6). I didn’t have my TOTT with me for such a search so it’s a no from me.
 
31-Jul-19
Cache was replaced last weekend, it is not on the gazebo and never has been. No tools are required to extract the cache or log. Happy Hunting all Smile

Nice hide. Worked out from the hint. All well with cache. Tftc
 
05-Aug-18
Great find just off the road
 
03-Aug-18
I came here last week , I could see where the cache should be, so today I replaced it as per the hint. I hope you don't mind
 
24-Jun-18
sad face for us, Wondering if missing as looked at clue and pretty sure found the right spot saw an area that looked liked something was there but now gone
 
26-May-18
Unfortunately we came up empty handed here today, will get back some time to turn that frown upside down
 
30-Mar-18
We didn't even look for this one as some muggles were having a get together. We will be back to locate.

Was in Perth (and Rockingham for the WAGB event) for a few days. Had today to myself and decided to go for a drive to Toodyay. Loaded up the GPS with the caches along the way and set off.

Made the find here after spotting the other one. Well played.

Thanks for the cache

Out for a day of caching around the TBROG series with dezzabills and Lasarus_68. I managed to find 72 caches for the day with one DNF so all in all it was a good day to be out caching. Some of the caches had been found by dezzabills and or Lazarus so we all had a different find count for the day. Most of the series were found quite quickly with the odd one taking a little more time. The one thing we will have to do is return and finish off the series at a later date. This was find number sixty seven for the day and one of the few not in the TBROG series. The cache was very wet and I had to empty out water from the container, log was damp and OK.
 
05-Jun-17
tftc webblywa out caching with lzarus68 and hhhedy and we had just completed over half of the tbrog series and we stopped by here to grab this cache. I immediately thought the hint related to one thing there and a couple of minutes later hhhedy found the cache. The clue is very ingenious. well done. The cache had water in it as these type of containers are not water proof.
 
05-Jun-17
Out with buddies hhheddy & dezzabills, following the TbroG series, making most of public holiday + perfect weather.
Water found inside the container, but log paper still dry. Thank you WebblyWA!
