Today we took an afternoon drive to the Myalup area. This had been on our radar for a good few weeks and today was the ideal day with temperatures only in the high twenties it was perfect weather to explore. We were certainly impressed and intrigued by the chain of salt lakes that are a feature of the area along with all the bird life that they attract. We were also intrigued by the constant sound of crickets and certainly saw several of them too. Then on to the beach side which was quite blowy and choppy but refreshing none the less. All in all a great afternoon of geocaching and exploring in another beautiful WA location.

This is our third cache of the day. It is a pleasant drive along the road next to the lake. We parked up here and took the short stroll into the bush which was really nice with the exception of avoiding several groups of frisky ants . The geocache was soon located ,we then continued to walk to the edge of the lake taking in the vista and taking lots of photos. TFTC

Thanks Team Binningup for placing this cache for us to find.

Headed out and about for a few hours of geocaching. No real plan for the day, just headed south and see where I end up.

Hi there Team Binningup.

We tried caching north of Bunbury today & found your cache **"Yalgorup Lakes 5"** at 10:51:00 AM .(This makes our find count 23628).

Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Nothing.

Thank you Team Binningup for adding to our adventure.

Regards

Ian & Penny

Nice view of the lake. Clever hide. TFTC
 
20-Aug-19
Easy find for a cacher. Muggles would probably just ignore it.

In good condition. Lake looking very nice tonight with only a light breeze. Will definitely return in Spring.

The jinta mob has been a bit lacking in cache finds lately so Mrs jinta decided that a weekend away was in order to try and grab a few caches while exploring this area! We headed towards Bunbury grabbing a few GCA caches along the way and had an absolute blast collecting caches this weekend. Fave points will be awarded when deserved, thanks for putting this cache out. Cheers and TFTC.

G’day there Team Binningup, I was in this area today and found your cache Yalgorup Lakes 5 GC74ZXV. I added my name to the log book at 10:32 am on 16 November 2018. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

This cache find brings our total find count to 10110. Woohoo!!

Heading down to my WAGB campsite a little early and stopped off here to pick up the Myalup caches on the way. Great way to break up the drive and stretch the legs, and the lovely locations of these caches is a bonus too Smile Really nice drive along this winding road picking up the 6 caches alongside Yalgorup Lake. I had the road all to myself and every GZ was deserted as well. Perfect Smile Lake is looking splendid too, lots of birds seen (no roos though). All caches were nice easy finds, no problems at any of them. Thanks for placing these along here, unlikely I’d have made the detour otherwise! Took lots of photos too Smile TFTC

Souvenir hunting has started.

Rach and I decided today since she was free we'd go caching no matter what the weather. It started of with heavy rain, thankfully I had two umbrellas, then we had moments of clear weather and some sun before a light sprinkle of rain. Not too bad in the grand scheme of things.

After getting a FTF on a GA in Harvey we headed to Yarloop, grabbed a few caches there and a few more on the way back to Harvey before a few around town and on the way home back to Bunbury

Had time for these two Yalgorup caches before heading home so Rach could get kids from school. A quick find by Rach when we reached GZ. Great views

Great camo. Great place to investigate the lake. We wrote our names in the sand under the water and they stayed in the clay. Geokids thought that was awesome

Found this one on a beautiful autumn day out and about with a very old friend of mine, showing him the ropes of geocaching. He isn't convinced that it is something he would ever get into, but he can see the attraction and realizes that it is something that I am very passionate about. Besides, don't have time to bother with negative muggles anymore, lol.

No problems finding this one. I spotted it as soon as we arrived but I stood back and asked muggle friend it he could spot that which didn't look quite right. He was suitable impressed with the hide and his skepticism in the game was assuaged a fraction. Thanks for the smiley and for bringing us to such a great location Team Binningup
 
28-May-17
A fairly quick find.


TFTC Team Binningup this is find # 2361 for us.

Had a huge day off planned with Cravo10, so decided we should head down South of Mandurah to cleanup some new series of caches that have been published and clean up the caches on the journey between Mandurah and Bunbury so that we can have a caching trip to Bunbury soon that doesn't involve too many stops on the way down so that we can actually cache out Bunbury and Busselton in the coming months.

Our first stop was the John Tognela walk trail caches, which included one archived cache found in great condition, lovely walk and special thanks to webbly wa for replacing the first one that was clearly lost in the fires.

We then tried for the ponder this series by Jinta29, which was going to give us some huge amounts of months unloved, found 8 of the 9 in the series, with a DNF on number one which gives us 48 months of unloved.

We cleaned up the OOH YEHs heading south caches on the way down which were all nice quick finds with good co ords. I wonder how far this series will end up going? Hopefully all the way to Bunbury Very Happy

We then headed to grab the new yalgorup five caches that were recently placed, all found in good order and were in such a lovely area that I'd love to explore more, hopefully you can place a few more caches in this series and we can come back and spend more time exploring the area.

We then continued back towards Mandurah caching up a storm grabbing everything along the way that we could, including trying for some archived caches that are long gone, so we weren't all that successful on that front. We found a good variety of caches today and was good to finally make another huge dent in the Mandurah caches so we won't need too many caching runs down here to keep the area clean

Thanks to the local COs for their hides and we can't wait to come back to the area, we had a great day. Thanks

Decided to head south with the hubby to grab the 5 Yalgorup lake caches. This was a very good camo job on this one that took me a few minutes to spot. A fav point for this one TFTC Team Binningup
