Thanx

WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 54 - Bunbury to Fremantle via Mundijong. I did some roadside caches along the highway before it became freeway. I had two more counties on the radar, so I took a bit of a detour and found a fantastic little village Mundijong. From there it was back on main roads and from Armidale it was all built up. I tried a reserve for some series caching, but it was very hard going off trail and I struggled. After setting up, I headed into Fremantle itself for dinner and then I went for a bit of a walk and managed three more before heading home for the night.It was now time to head on and I did a few more roadside caches along the way. Some were a little off the road, bit were still easy to access. I did miss a few of the ones I tried, but this one went fine.Thanks for the cache Granett47872.17 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & Cache Queensland Cal A#437**Albida**

Out on a bit of a cache hunt before picking my daughter up from a camp in the area.Quick find here. TFTC

Good geocatch

Taurus Six and I have taken an extra day off work to make it a five day Easter Break . We had a leisurely morning before heading to the Crooked Carrot for brunch. Our favourite spot when heading up the highway. Our geocaching aim today was to meander through the suburbs of Perth chipping away at Adventure Labs and picking up traditional caches nearby. We were ultimately heading for the Swan Valley where we are spending the Easter break. Absolutely beautiful weather making the criss cross across the Metro area even more enjoyable from the ocean to the hills.This was our eighth Cache find of the day along with nearby Adventure Lab elements. The road was surprisingly very busy around here . It is clearly a main short cut for people on work days. There was a good parking spot near gz which made it much easier to find, log and replace cache . Thanks for the cache.

Nice little find

Enjoying a short a trip to W.A. and surrounding areas with tmann421
Saw lots of sites and enjoyed the finds.
Thanks to the cache owners for the efforts involved in their hides.

Heading back to Perth now - getting some caches on the way!

Tftf nicely hidden!

Nice and easy

Out today enjoying a little drive to pick up some caches in & around Mundijong & Jarrahdale... a bunch of which I had actually found previously but forgot to log, doh, and others like this one that were new. Pulled the car over and was pleased to make a quick find after a short rummage around. Sadly a fair bit of rubbish around here so the hint was welcome. All ok with the cache here today - TFTC

Down in serpentine doing a quote so naturally had to grab a cache to add some kms to my cache to cache distance. A quick find with a nice view TFTC

A particularly pleasing field nearby. Lots of grazing sheep.
TFTC Granett

Nice quick find here after completing the Momentum Obstacle Course Race in Keysbrook TFTC

What can I say - orrsome view! TFTC.

Yay, my 75th, a nice easy one on the way home from a craft weekend in Jarrahdale. TFTC

Catching up on my online logs.
The Better Half and I went out for a day of caching. We found about 26 caches and DNF'd around 4.
Was an enjoyable day except when we came up against the numerous roadworks around the area and had to change our plans a few times.

Cache found without problems. Log signed and cache returned as found.

Thanks Granett for placing this cache for us to find.

This one has been a nemesis cache for me. Seeing had been maintained, I pulled in and made a quick find.

Great success!!

TFTC Granett

Quick easy find...had to be stealthy and use my geo4wd as a buffer as there was a lot traffic going past...container and log in good condition.
TFTC and

Replaced with a preform tube hidden behind a rock, I hope it lasts.

I was unable to spot this one in the time I alotted myself. Will try again another time.

Very long weeds but searched everywhere the hint suggested but no luck.

2nd time round with no success. Lots of fresh weeds growing here now.

Cheers for the hide Granett

Dnf to much rubbish

A speedy find.

I came, I saw, I signed the log. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.

Cache is in good condition.

Off on another day hunting with Ebenie & Geotrakka. At least the sun is shining today after a very wet day yesterday. Thanks

Awesome thanks out with PollyMichele and Geotrakka.

Nice easy park and find TFTC

Out for a day of caching with axell33 and the geopups with the Mystery at the Museum Challenge in mind. We are hoping the rain holds off while we're out on our adventure on this already soggy kind of day. This one is our first for the day and a nice quick find. Thanks for the cache.

Heading up the hill to Jarrahdale to hunt down some of Stephen King Novels series and thought we would stop and grab this one to start off our caching day. Quick search turned up our prize and we soon had the log signed and cache returned to its original spot. Now to head up the hill. TFTC Granett

Found it. TFTC.

With buttercup380

Second time looking and auspom67 had it before I even got out of the car

Found it. Lots of rubbish. Eugh

Found. What a shame people think its ok to dump rubbish wherever they want to.

I DNF this one a long time ago. Returned today for an easy quick find this time. TFTC

Lots rubbish but no cache. Thanks anyway

Granett this is my 14th cache of 64 finds of the day and brings my total find count to 407. The container is in good condition. SLTFTC.

Found SWH...Orrsome Family in good condition by base of tree. SL TFTH Granett.

After getting about 110 caches on trails in this area we decided to get a few more SWH caches and some others.
The mission was to get 120 caches before my event started in Rockingham, and we succeeded.
Logged these together with Outlaw166.

TFTC!

Day 2 of 2 with Geogypsy on our round trip to Perth to visit the family.
A lot of unique and fun caches along the way back down along SWH.
A quick find, TFTC

Day 2 out and about with Schnappy96, on our girls trip caching! An easy find TFTC

Found very quickly in the likley spot.

Congratulations to the Orrsome Family for your achievements in this great game of ours



Thanks for the cache Granett, found it at 2:02:00 PM it was cache number 2901 for me and was number 23 in my run of 26 finds and 3 DNFs for today's geocaching effort.

Cheers

We headed out to collect some more smilies around and along the SWH today, we are happy to say that we came up trumps here, most of today's finds were quick, we loved the variety of caches that we came across, thanks to all CO's that placed these caches for us to find TFTC

TFTC

Such a nice day that I thought that I would try and knock off some more of the SWH caches and a few others on the way. Most were found quite easily although a few took a little longer. It was so green down here with lots of fat cows and some beautiful wildflowers to look at. Only a couple of DNFs so a good day Tftc

Found the co-ords a little out on this one, but we found it in the end. Looking forward to doing more of this series. TFTH!

Out to collect some smilies on a beautiful sunny winters day.

Blended in well with the rubbish that had been dumped there. TFTC

Easy find, no pencil tytc

This was good timing as Luna Maya was signing the log just as I got there. She kindly handed me the log to put my mark on. Found after the event nearby, my first time in Mundijong but not the last as it is a beautiful area. Thank you for the cache Granett.

Our last find for the day before heading home. The sun shining on a beautiful Autumn Day. SL TFTC Granett.
So much rubbish near GZ ...

Nice quick find

Miss 6 found this one by herself. TFTF!

Found it. TFTC Granett. Had a current visa so I went south across the boarder into the depths of the unknown. The day was for relaxation and geocaching but maybe not in that order. I have previously done some of this SWH series and today I have returned for a second attempt to gain a few more smileys. What can I say here, it was Orrsome but it would have been better with cake. shame about the rubbish people dump

So much rubbish near the cache. Why do people do that when they have bins at home. Cache found without to much trouble. Thanks

Fitted in nicely with all the rubbish here. Pity Tftc

Found container in middle of parking area. Found log in dirt away from container. No idea where it was hidden.
I've hidden it same area..

TFTC.

We're 99% certain that we found this cache. In a very "risky" location.

We were driving back to Perth, turned off SW highway. Stopped in an obvious spot for a pee against a tree... Looked where I was about to pee -- and saw an obvious cache container!

Standard small Sistema container, properly closed, mostly covered. It contains just a log strip, with plenty of logged visits... now including ours.

*But*... nothing else! Not even a cache code nor a cache name. Just the log. I'll post a "needs maintenance" for the owner.

See our log for today...

Cache needs an identifier (GC code and name). And perhaps move it *behind* the tree!

After a dreadful working week (the surrounds to this week perfectly suited my week!) I needed some caching therapy. Initially I made searching for this one much harder than it needed to be. Thanks to the hints in previous logs it turned out to be an easy find.

Tftc

Headed out on this nice Saturday arvo with the hubby to pick up some caches a bit further away from home to help us close in on a milestone soon. Quick find and replaced as found. Tftc

I have been looking to head out to Kojonup for sometime to collect a few of the WanAus feeder caches for the RWA and DWA series. After touching base with the boys, Granett decided to join the road trip.

And early start to and a heap of kilometres covered.

What an Orrsome cache. Well, maybe not. But an Orrsome cacher and also cache owner who was with me for this find on the way home.

Granett, Kyzabra found your cache SWH...Orrsome Family, the cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Grabbed this on the way home after picking up +4 from a nearby camp. TFTC

After dropping the geoboy at work early this morning, I headed down to Jarrahdale to make another dent in the Civilisation Series. These caches are such an asset to this area and I am privileged to live pretty close to the lot.

Grabbed this one in the way home. Nice quick find.


Granett - SVKR_WA found your cache SWH...Orrsome Family at 11:12:29 on the 18 Nov 2017. This find brings our total finds to 2401.

We appreciate the effort you have gone to in placing this cache for our fun and enjoyment.

Hi there Granett - having decided to go to the Mundijong Markets, we decided to look for a few caches on the way home. This was one of those and the container and log were found in good condition - SL. Thanks to Granett for this cache - our find #5103

Nice quick find. Thx for the cache

Yay! Out caching with Team 8Ball and Cassie &Co.
TFTC

Getting dark now getting harder

Down from Geraldton enjoying the drive and the scenery with Team Bastholm and Cassie &Co. Thank you.

Day Eleven of our holiday in Western Oz.
Bettyboo3747 and I have spent the morning on the South West Highway between Jarrahdale and Pinjarra, and the afternoon trying to find a cache that still exists on the way back to Rockingham.

The first for the morning, always good to get off to a good start with a quick find.
Thanks, Robmc.

#12664. Day 11 of our WA holiday and our 6th day based in Rockingham. Robmc and I decided to tackle the SWH Series between Jarrahdale and Pinjarra. We managed a nice run of 44 caches before lunch and then the wheels fell off somewhat as we made our way home via Mandurah. So many caches were not viable so we didn't feel like wasting time searching. It was hard to find some caches that were still in play.

This was our first one for morning and a glimpse of blue helped us make a quick find.

Thanks Granett

A quick find on my way to Busselton. Thanks Granett.

Thanks Granett for the cache. It was found in Good Condition

This find brings my total number of Finds to 3493.

Just where it should be, a nice quick find.

Nice quick cache right where it was meant to be TFTC Granett

A quick stop to claim another SWH orrsome.

A nice day for some caching. Thanks for the hide.

Spent the day trying to finish off the rest of SWH and had some success but had to give up when the rain became too heavy and persistent in the afternoon. This is one of the caches I was lucky enough to find. Thanks for placing and maintaining it!

*Found this while House Sitting in Bedfordale*

*Out and about grabbing a couple of SWH Caches*...

A short search, found cache, stamped and returned. Area around GZ is a dumping ground by the looks of things.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment Granett. Appreciate your effort.

Took my mum out for a day of geocaching fun. She is great at spotting caches before me and doesn't let me forget it, I think she needs her own caching account.
Yes she found this one before me
TFTC Granett

Our last day around this neck of the woods before heading home, this was another find for us whilst caching in the area… Spotted the obvious tree but of course looked on the wrong side first before finding the well covered cache

Thanks Granett [^]

After dropping daughter at airport at 1.30pm to head home we came this way to cache.
The plan was to find as many as possible on my list before it got dark.
Managed many km and 26 on the way home, which all helps as this month is my numbers month

well this cache nearly wasn't as Orrsome as its namesake. Looked in all the obviously wrong places, trod in something that didn't look too good (with so much rubbish here) and walked around with a spider web attached.
I had just finished 'calling it' to muggle when I tried one last easy spot and there it was, phew as I didn't want a

TFTC

All good and replaced as found

Out and about bright and early grabbing some SWH caches. Thanks to the COs that have placed and maintain these for our caching pleasure.

TFTC Granett this is find # 2458 for us.

Unfortunate dnf

Could do with a bit of cleaning up

Heading out into Gnome Territory this morning, decided to stop here along the way. Nice quick grab in pitch black.

TFTC Granett.

Granett, KrabiBoy found your cache SWH...Orrsome Family on 10/6/17.

Quick detour out to Mundijong on the way home from work. Park and grab here. TFTC.
