Resilience is right the continuation to stay and sign when confronted by the giant roaches made a geomum cringe - alas the cache was found easily log signed and covered. Cache container looking like the Pilbara sun is taking its toll! TFTH SL

Girlfromthebush got this one before I even got up to the sculpture. TFTH SL cheers

Took photo of cache but don't know how to upload it.

Cache will need to be replaced.

Found what appears to be cache. It is disintergrating. Container, paper and pen. Couldnt locate another just in case there is another cache??

Found but forgot pen. Cache could use a little care/replacement maybe. Worth a stop and a pretty cool sculpture tftc

Found. Lots of flies and cockroaches

Cool!

Driving through to Mt Augustus, we decided to take the longer way around so we could stop in at Paraburdoo. Been many years since we’ve been here. We enjoyed our walk around all the interpretive signs and then finding the cache. Thanks for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Heading home the long way from a quick visit to the grandkids in Karratha and stopped off for the night in Paraburdoo.
Came to this cache after spending four hours at the hospital getting my injured thumb treated.

We found a shattered sistema under a tree then Mr dimor found a mint tin out in the open, finally I found another sistema. We put contents of tin in the good sistema and took the pieces of the shattered one.

Took the TB

A lovely sculpture, thanks for bringing us here

Tftc. On our way to Karijini. Great wildflowers.

Interesting location

Forgot our pen. Rookie mistake.

Nice place to see in the way home from karijini TFTC

Tftc and getting us to appreciating the sculpture

What a brilliant sculpture

Cords spot, glad we stopped, cool sculpture TFTC

Container broken & contents scattered on ground. Covered as best we could.

An lovely sculpture with an interesting read about how and why it was made.
Pity to see some people have graffiti it.

Cache easily found. Left swap and TB to continue journey.

Thanks Kyzabra

Found! But container was very damaged so replaced with a tin we also added a trinket

Also please note there are two caches in this location. Close to each other. We filled in log and added a trinket

Found !

Really interesting info. Loved the location.tftc fVe

We headed out on the Para - TP loop on a caching mission, what a brilliant place to highlight so a favorite point your way TFTC Kyzabra

Great view TFTC

Well worth the wander through the artwork! Lovely spot & quick find. TFTC

Coming past here again and dipping some TBs

Found on a windy afternoon, in good condition. TFTC

nice quick find, replaced container and log.

Looks like a giant life saver candy. No container here - just a log sheet in a bit of plastic. Thanks Kyzabra

Quick find. Cache log book is in a small plastic bag only - looks like litter. Had no box with us. Proper box would be great Nice Spot though.

Today our tour - which began in Perth, WA , and led us thru Western, Northern and Southern Australia back to Perth, was simply driving from Gascoyne Junction to Mt Augustus NP.


On the way we came to some interesting locations. Here we searched, found and logged this Tradi-Cache.

Weather was good in the morning and it should even get better during the day.

Thanks to 'Kyzabra' for showing us this location, for the fun we had with 'Resilience' and the smiley. The search here and today didn't take too much time, fortunately.

Greetings from Germany and we hope to see you soon in the forest, prairie, desert or outback .

Thanks for encouraging to stop at this excellent sculpture, I'm sure we would have sailed right on past if not for your cache Kyzabra. A fave point for the sculpture.

Been prospecting in the Ashburton for 7 weeks. Had to log at least one find before leaving.

Found during my half lap advanture from Adelaide. Container and log book in good condition. TFTC.

Took an oversize load into Parapurdoo Mine today and nabbed this geo on the way out. TFTC

Loved this sculpture Tftc

Found it on the way from Mount Augusta to Karijini.
Thanks for the Cache

Found - nice statue, boy the flies were hungry!

Well that was a good walk after work picked up travel bug and will move it on to continue its journey tftc

Found after being recently replaced. Thanks.

Thanks heaps to Mikaelajoy1 who headed out and replaced the container for me.
All good to go again.
Love the help.

As per the last 2 logs i think it gone
Found SPOR but no container
TFTC

I’m out of action at the moment and won’t get back to Parra for a number of weeks.

If anyone is heading up that way, I’m more than happy for a replacement to be put out.

It wasn’t a hard find. A small sistema at the base of a shrub.

If you wish to replace so you can get that smiley, flick me a message and I’ll update the listing to reflect.
Other wise I’ll be up that way later in the year.

No luck for us today with this one. We found a bush with a lot of strewn around rocks but no cache. The kids enjoyed the walk up to the sculpture though.

Thanks anyway Kyzabra.

pug002 dnf 21/8/2018 on our way through Parabadoo onto Lancelin. GPS and phone spot on where it was supposed to be. Read the clue but we could not find it there. I expanded the search but did not appear to be any likely spot. Thanks anyway Kyzabra it was a lovely place to see

A nice place to visit on sunset

Last for the day and being after 4pm we expected to have this place to ourselves but no, two muggles on pushbikes headed up the track just as we pulled up. Rotters left their icecream sticks on the ground and on one of the information signs too!!!!
As I wanted to give them time to look and leave I read the signs on the way up and that was a good way to do it as it gave me a better appreciation of the sculpture once there. It is way more impressive up close than from the highway.
Once they left I wandered over and made the find and then it was down to have a quick tour of the town before heading to our camp spot for the night at the Beasley River.
We are now heading into caching wilderness with over 300 kms until our next search.
Thanks and a favourite point from us for making us come for a closer look at this.

On a big round trip, heading up to my sisters in Newman and then across to Karajini Np, Tom Price and then to my Dad's in Carnarvon, to Shark bay and Monkey Mia, to Gerardton and back though Perth to Mandurah. Tftc.

Thanks for bringing us here. Loved the art and the wildflowers are just starting. A favourite . Tftc

On our 2018 trip from Geelong. Went up to Alice and then Darwin and across to WA
Amazing trip so far
We find ourselves in Tim price and will explore this area for a week
What do the muggles see, we are taken to some great spots thanks to caching
Fantastic sculpture

A quick find after admiring the sculpture here, what an amazing piece of work. Enjoyed the short walk in too. Good to stretch the legs TFTC

TFTC nice easy find great art work

After a lot of planning, geoson Xpert_Cacher and I are off on a camping road trip up north. 8 days of driving, exploring, Geocaching and camping in swags. The plan has us travelling nearly 5000km grabbing plenty of caches and crossing off a pile of LGAs.

Day 6 - up and about early this morning as we drive from Tom Price to Paraburdoo and the into camp at Exmouth.

Nice piece of art and a nice story behind it.

Kyzabra SVKR_WA found your cache Resilience today at 07:54:47 25 Apr 2018.

I am happy to have found it and thank you for placing it and adding to this great game.

This find brings my find count to 3013

After having a good time at Exmouth it's time to drive to our next destination: Karijini. There were not many geocaches on the road but we picked every cache up which we passed by! We were surprised about the wonderful landscapes! In our eyes it was like driving trough a fairtale! We are not used to see that much of green scenery in Australia! We booked a cottage in Eco lodge, wich lies in a scenic landscape aswell! We are looking forward to our stay in Karijini!

Greetings from Belgium!

**Individual log:**

Nice art!

Quick find while popping into town to get a vehicle...tftc

Flew In for work and convinced my muggle ride to stop off at a couple of places ! Tftc

Great spot TFTC

An awesome piece of art which shows its wonderful colour especially in the morning or evening light. Thanks for placing the cache there, otherwise we would probably not have stopped.

Having a great day with a 100% strike rate

Found interesting sculpture

We really liked this sculpture. There was a stink bug cockroach thing that was protecting the cache and kept sticking his bum at us wherever we moved. Managed to sign the log though and head off. Thanks for the cache

Day 36 on my trip from Perth to the Red Centre Experience in Alice Springs with m4yb and Max the GeoUte pulling Jonathan Swift the Jaycp camper trailer.

What an adventure it has been and great to get some caches along the route.

Now on our homeward journey via some great places and hopefully some great caches. Interesting bit off art! Train went past while we were signing duties
TFTC

On the way home after the most excellent Red Centre Experience Event at Alice Springsmaking Paraburdoo a refuelling stop for Max the GeoUte and ourselves.
Walked up to the artwork, then made the find. And to show the resilience of the mining industry, an ore train went by.
Thanks for this cache Kyzabra!

The information about the how steel plate was formed into the required shape by blasting was really interesting. The cache was an easy find and the duties were soon done. Thanks to Kyzabra for bringing us here to stop and view this sculpture and learn something about the technique used to create it.

Lovely spot with lots wildflowers.Ta

Great sculpture! The cache was a good reason to visit it so thank you for bringing us here. Wildflowers are glorious too.

Found with friends

Wahoo a STF. I seen a mention on FB of this cache when I was on R & R last week and walked from camp out to "Resilience" after work the day I flew back in. Ive been working at one of the mines for 5 months and never knew about this artwork. Thats the beauty of Geocaching - going to places you never knew existed. TFTC

Took WOZ For a visit

Don't get the chance for many FTF up this way! Taking the kids off to play some Ingress and Pokémon Go decided I better check if Kyzabra had hidden a cache on a recent visit. Sure enough it turned into a Ingress/Pokémon/Geocache hunt TFTC
