TbroG - Embankment Gidgegannup, Western Australia, Australia
By blingg on 30-Jul-16. Waypoint GC6PCHM

No joy with this one today - only spent 15 minutes searching before moving on.

Full time nomads stopping in Toodyay for a while.

The plan for today was to tackle the caches in Avon Valley NP that only worked to a limit. Disappointed to find the track we wanted to take to some older caches has been closed again by DPAW.

Oh well we were able to find your cache before the day went downhill.

Knew where this one was, so MitchDem did a run up from the other side of the road, exactly where we thought, TFTC

Got a run up from the other side of the road and sent it easy

Out and about with Team Barritts for some more adventures! Great spot, tftc!

With the total fire ban in place we decided to head out for a few hours and clean up some of the map.

All good here, cache & log in good condition, TFTC!

Out with one mission in mind - to complete the TbroG series today. Thanks blingg for putting this series together in a beautiful part if the countryside.

Out with geotrakka for another day at the TbroG series. Tftc.

Nice quick find here.

The mountain goat needed two sticks to navigate up to this one.

Thank you! Out finding caches to work towards the current souvenir challenge. Also a good opportunity to finish off this series. Happy to make the find here.

Came over this way today for a few hours to try and finish off the TbroG series. I had 25 left, one of which was a previous DNF and appears to be MIA. So the aim today was to pick up the remaining 24. I got 23 of them - with another one seemingly MIA. But super happy! Especially as quite a few of the ones today had not been found for a long time (some over a year) Also pleased I came today as it seems a cycle race is taking place around these roads tomorrow so likely no chance of caching here then!

Individual cache note: Easier going up than coming down! Survived without a scratch and was pleased to make a very quick find at GZ. No problems here today - another quick find. TFTC

Treated myself to a geocaching afternoon today while the rest of Arnott.family were busy. Found quite a few and am nearly finished my Mystery at the Museum souvenirs.

No joy with this one

Found it. TFTC blingg. Came here to do more of this TbroG series.

Got this one. On a roll (not down the hill thankfully).

A quick find here.
Only 1 day to go and still 30 caches to find to complete my search for Hidden Creatures... This was my second day along this fun series with a nice variety of hides and placements. I started in the rain but thankfully the weather cleared up before the next front. Thank you for the cache and for the series blingg.

Steep climb, but easy find. TFTC

Catching up on some very late logging - three+ years late! Found with Neva2Old. Cheers.

Finally got back to finishing off this series. Only had 1 dnf today, so i'll be back to look for that another day. Thankyou blingg for the series and the interesting hides.

up the slippery slope and replaced log

After quick a scramble up a damp embankment we found a wet cache and even wetter log. Replaced upside down to try and drain, photo instead of signature....

We came up again this way to find the last 20 or so caches of the TbroG series and some others in the area.
Most caches were easy to locate, but a couple kept us going around in circles for a while. No DNFs today, happy days!

TFTC! Steep climb

Found safe and well.

Another cool but sunny day so off to get some caches with m4yb. Might even see how we go for a run at 300 in the month of June.

Thanks for the series and the hide blingg

Off to TbroG today withmegawat60 and the GeoJazz, with a few other caches as well. Quick climb and find. TFTC

Second round on the TBROG series for Lazarus_68, dezzabills and myself, We spent the day caching together and managed to find all the remaining caches in the series, this was find number seventeen out of thirty four finds for the day. Thanks bling for creating the series.

Out completing this series with geo-buddies.
Thank you blingg for the variety of hides.

TFTC Blingg and thanks for a great series. In company with hhhedy and lazarus 68 we headed around and completed all the caches today. It was an awesome day to be out and it was great to have completed your series. Loved many of your hides and also locations. Thanks for the outstanding time and effort you put into making it a great series.

Found with Mackerals. TFTC.

I had a couple of hours to kill so I thought I would do a few more of your series, I should complete it one day. No rush:)
I found 14 today and they were all in reasonable shape, some I see you have just maintained.
Thanks for hiding them all.
Oh, and that bought up my 1500th GC cache.

With the distractions of 4 FTFs to our names over, it was time to tackle what was actually planned for the day - TbroG.
The goal was to complete the 33 caches we had left, we almost made it finding 32 of the 33.
This was my first of the series and time for me to correct my previous DNF where co-ords had me in the middle of the road. Instead of the GPS I used the title and a bit of common sense to make the find. I even made it up and back down again unscathed showing off my best crab manoeuvres to the laughing PP2 waiting in the car. TFTC blingg always nice to turn a into a

Far be it for me to pass up the chance to go caching when offered So I packed a picnic & PP1 & I headed for the hills to attend to some unfinished business. All of the Tbrog we attempted today were found & in good condition. Love the interaction between cache names & location. TFTC

Awesome thanks

pug002 found it. Made an early start as weather promised to be hot, which it was. TFT hides only 2 DNF's will be going back as we were rather tired when it started to heat up. TFTC's blingg

Hi blingg I found your TbroG – Embankment dry and healthy. SL TFTH. Image shows: Short-billed (Carnaby’s) Black-Cockatoo feeding

Headed off early this morning with geobuddy Mark, but with no set plan as to where we were going, just northwards, and hopefully away from suburbia. On the way up the freeway, we discussed options and the area around Kalamunda/Mundaring looked promising, possibly even a bit north again. Heading out along Roe Highway, we though we would take Toodyay Road, then loop back through Parkerville, Stoneville and surrounds. As usually happens, we soon forgot the plan and just followed the gps from one cache to the next closest and before we knew it we were well into this awesome series of caches. We had the best day of caching that we have had for a long time too - some beautiful scenery, a good variety of hides, some easy and some more challenging, and great compay too. The only thing missing was a cold beer and a pub meal to break up our day, so nothing for it but to just keep on caching. We didn't complete the whole series though (geobuddy's man-flu was beginning to rear it's ugly head again), so we decided to leave the ones in the centre for another day. Great day out all around blingg, so a big thank you for all the work that went into getting them all out there for us to enjoy.

Hi there blingg. We found your cache **"TbroG - Embankment"** at 2:21:00 PM today.

This was our 53rd cache find in a caching run of 60 Finds & 1 DNFs today. (So this now makes our find count 15168.)

Today's cache run was to make a start on the TbroG series of caches (and of course any other caches we passed along the way too).

We thoroughly enjoyed today's cache finds, and gave each one a favourite point (for the hide, the parking area, the inventive camouflage, or the adventure).

Please excuse our boilerplate logs, we know it's not really a good excuse, but it's really difficult to craft individual logs when we attempt so many similar caches in a day.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 10m from where the GPS said we should be looking. (The coordinates are in the middle of the road)!
**Cache Condition:** Container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
** Left**: A Smiley Badge (if the container was big enough).

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Cool cache.

Took me a couple of laps to spot the container, though it shouldn't have. Cachers blindness! TFTC

Someone really needed to guard the car here and I was happy to take one for the team and send Freddo to the heights. Thanks for the cache.

Freddo found a cache. On tour with .K.B. Up there!

Gps played up a bit on this one. Managed the slope though and did get. Love the white wildflower. Tftc.

Another great cache, although with my knee still recovering from ACL surgery, the climb was a bit tricky at times. Thanks for the cache!

Another Friday morning, another caching trip to the hills. Ended up with 20 finds in 3hrs while focusing mainly on the TbroG series.
Most finds were pretty quick with coords spot on although one or two took a few minutes to track down.
Loving this series, I think one more sortie into the area souks be enough to finish it off. TFTC

Thanks for the Cache blingg

Teamed up with SVKR_WA today to make a start on the TbroG series picking up a few others along the way as well. It was rather miserable weather wise to begin with but fined up later on. A lot of variety in the cache containers kept us honest with most being found without problem.

Thought we had clambered up for nothing as the GPSr's were pointing 10 meters back down. They settled down eventually and I managed to spot the nicely hidden container.

blingg I found your cache at 12:31pm, this was the 51st of 61 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 3533. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Out today with Granett to make a start on the TbroG series, plus a few others. We had a bit of rain, a bit of sunshine, but the day was good.

Plenty of wildflowers, and a good variety of cache containers. Most co-ordinates were very good.

We ended the day with 61 finds and 2 DNFs

We clambered up the side here without falling back down too many times. Granett made the find, and we made the slide back down.

I had an RDO today and I was in need of a caching fix so I decided to head to this area . My main focus was to be the TbroG series and some of the other caches which were close by [^]. I had a fantastic time out here today and a big thanks to all the CO's for the effort in placing the caches!

blingg - jinta29 found your cache TbroG - Embankment. This is my find #5732 and find #7 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Decided to head back out to try and finish this series. Another successful day, finishing with 49 finds in 5 and a half hours. We have loved doing the series and enjoyed the many varied containers and had fun trying to guess where they may be hidden using the cache name as a possible clue. We have had 2 dnf's and we will return another day to hunt them down.

Took a while but eventually found it.

TFTC blingg this is find 1367 for us

Got up early to knock off a few more of this series. Love driving through here early in the morning. I was having a good with my GPS. Tftc.

This was a quick find in the logical place after a steep little climb to get up there. I had 328/354 for co-ordinates at gz, but it didn't really matter as it was an easy find. Signed log and replaced as found. Thanks for the cache.

Enjoying a holiday in Perth with tmann421 and collecting a few caches along the way.
Another great find here. TFTC

Another good find with Just-Lookin today.
Enjoyed the drive around finding this good series of cache hides.

After dropping our geo-hubby's off to do the Wooroloo series, Mrs iluvtrekking and I headed off in a clockwise direction to do the TbroG series. Due to it being a dry day we were able to complete the whole series but it was a long slog with only a short break at the Gidgegannup Bakery for a coffee. Most containers were found reasonably quickly with only a couple of PAF utilised to give us a perfect score for the day. Our gps's had us 10 mts from listed-ords to find cache. Thanks blingg for a great series and the tour around the back country roads which was a highlight.

Hi blingg, we found TbroG - Embankment today. All was in good order so we signed the log and replaced the cache as found. Thank you.

After a long mountain bike ride this morning I had the afternoon free for caching, and headed back out here to pick up where I left off yesterday afternoon. I managed 36 finds in 3 hours and no DNFs again today, woohoo!!

I missed the parking spot here heading east as I had a car on my tail and had to find somewhere to turn around and double back, but after that it was a relatively straight forward find.

Thanks for the cache and the series blingg!

Headed back up this way with the geodaughter Redlipsandunicorns to find all the new TborG caches that had come out since we were last here. We got to the first cache at 6.45AM and after picking up 51 caches we were finished by 2.30PM. All the caches were found with only one we had to go back to twice Tbrog Paruna as we didnt want to leave with a DNF. Nearly all the caches were spot on with the co-ords and most were found quickly with a few that took a bit of searching. An enjoyable series and now im just waiting to see if more will be coming out...TFTC blingg

Quick find whilst out caching with my mom ooh yeh. Of course it was me shoved up the wet soggy embankment hahaha tftc

Had left the farm early so decided to stop off and collect a few TbroG smileys on the way home. This was stop number 5 and like another my GPS pointed to the middle of the road. Did the embankment but no luck found a bottle but no cache here. My only DNF for the day so all was not lost

22783 found

Second day - The weather was lovely - perfect day for cache.. so went for a drive the country...
Enjoyed search - most of all cache is good coordinate spot. I trust my GPS. [^] [^]
Found 46 out of 47.

Thanks for organising the cache, blingg

Out with B12 to Get some of the new TbroG series. TFTC TFTH

*FTF* at 9.15am

Out for the next instalment of the TbroG caches around Gidge, this was the next one for us… After searching for the last cache for a while, I was starting to think that perhaps this was not going to be my day as I was here for a while before discovering this well hidden cache! The co-ords had me on the road, but the cache was in the obvious spot, just not obvious to me
