Out for a day of caching around Darlington, Mundaring and the surrounding areas to cleanup the huge number of caches around these parts that have evaded us for a while.

A lot of bush caching today with some nice finds through John Forrest National Park, which I’ve always wanted to explore, but never got around to. The highlight of the walk apart from some great caches, informative signs along the trail, beautiful bridges, nice trails and great scenery was a walk through the Swan View Tunnel, which was absolutely awesome.

The other major walk of the day was around the Boya Quarry which is simply amazing for people that have never visited (I know many attended dark energy’s event out this way when his earth caches were still active in the quarry) beautiful views in particular from the top of the quarry and looking up the beautiful cliffs throughout the area.

We collected a bunch of other caches around the dam in JFNP, central Mundaring, and the Boya areas.

An amazing day out that finishes finding two old archived caches that have seen better days but would have been amazing to have seen in their heyday.

Thanks to all of the local COs for a great days caching, we had lots of fun. Thanks

Found it easily enough. Retrieval was another matter. First tried some creative use of tools but in the end had to take the long way around.

Find 4 of 14 with 1 DNF on a bike ride along the Railway Reserve from John Forrest to Mount Helena for lunch at the tavern. We cached on the way east, riding into a headwind and uphill. After lunch we flew back down which was very pleasant.

All the finds were pretty quick, but the DNF was not.

The few caches along here have been poking me in the eye every time I look at the map for a while now, so decided to clear some up.

Was checking out a nearby object but the phone kept pushing me slightly west, where thanks to good coords I ended up making the find.

** This is a very late log**

The caches I am now logging were ones I have found since setting off on a geocaching roadtrip with Eaglette2017 - the mission was to pick up just 5 more LGA caches as well as my geocaching centroid to enable me to qualify for a challenge cache over in Victoria that I visited when over there late last year. We had an absolute ball on our three days away, visiting many great locations, having lots of laughs and picking up many smileys.

Since then, I have been putting off logging any caches until I caught up on the ones from that wonderful adventure. Many, many more caches have been found and shared geocaching adventures have been enjoyed since then too, so it is about time that I got down to work on all those outstanding logs, albeit somewhat late.

I appreciate all the effort each of the cache owners has gone through to create and place each and every hide and I do not for one second take it for granted, I just need to get caught up so I can return to my usual style of individualized logs.

Shared today's adventure with Eliktrisiti and we had the best day. Thanks so much for all our smileys true blue containers.

On a warm afternoon I got a leave pass for some caching. A very cute cache container here Smile I pass by here often on my bike, but don't get the chance to stop and find caches, so I was happy to be able to come here and find this one today.

I left another GCA moveable cache nearby.

Thanks for the cache true blue containers!

Saw this cache published earlier on in the day & whilst heading down to Perth to see Jase in hospital, I decided to swing by this cache... Surely he wouldn't mind if we got there a little later than expected Wink

I had checked to see that there were no logs as yet, but thought for sure that it would have been found by now [?] Anyway we found a spot to park & took the short walk to GZ before circling around for a short time before spotting the likely spot... Sure enough we found the nicely themed cache just as the GPS decided to snap out of it Razz Upon opening the prize, we found a blank log book for the second time today...

TFTC true blue containers Big Grin The kids enjoyed finding this cute cache!
