Another day out and about with the MICKS and today we headed up to the hills as some of the team had a meeting to finalise some of the activities for WAGB in a few weeks.
Managed to always find myself in a car when the heavy rain came down and enjoyed the cooler weather as we walked through the bush.
By the time I called it a day I’d managed 30 finds, 1 adventure lab, 1 challenge signed & 0 DNF’s.

I added my name to the log at 13:02 on 6/5/2023.
This is find number 7115 for me.

G’day there Willissk, I was in this area today and found your cache The Burnt Out Log GC77FVC. Our name was added to the log book at 5:44 am on 29 November 2021. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

03-Jun-19
Sad to say, but all good things must come to an end, or so they say!! Found this one early Monday morning after packing up camp and hitting the road for towards home, making a rather long day of it, stopping here, there and everywhere, hunting down smileys along the way. Found this one in the first place I looked, missed it, then did a second lap, doh!! Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for the rest of us to come and find Willissk.

PS This cache is a micro, not a small, as it is definitely less than 100ml internal volume, as per the guidelines.
 
03-Jun-19
Got it. It was at the first place we looked but was smaller than we though and we over looked it. Eventually got it...

Tftc, found it Team Young
 
01-Jun-19
Over from Canberra with Grimraider, Kittykatch and Smittengranny for the West Australia Goes Big event. First time visiting over here and very excited to be out and about. We ventured into the bush to start the FOTT series and looking forward to completing this. Lots of work getting here but now to enjoy. TFTC
 
01-Jun-19
Log is wrecked from water getting into the cache.
 
01-Jun-19
Apologies for the generic logs. Another fabulous day in sunny WA. Great weather, great caches and great company again thanks to GrimRaider (Chauffeur extraordinaire), Kittykatch (Team Leader) and Joolay (cacher with built in GPS).
We started the day in Mt Helena and found 7 caches in the area before breakfast at Mundaring. Completely revitalised we took off for our planned attack on the FOTT series starting at GC83EAR and virtually travelled southwards with a few sidetracks. Having finished today's planned 52 caches, we became a bit carried away and started some of tomorrow's as well as we were keen to see the T5 caches. We were soon travelling back to Northam where we registered before logging some caches and returning for dinner.

Thanks again to the COs of this wonderful series. All caches were found to be in good condition with good coordinates and were signed, or stamped, as Capital Crunchers.
 
01-Jun-19
Found today with the Capital Crunchers team, here for the WA Goes Big Event. We picked up a few before heading to the FOTT trail. TFTC

Found it. TFTC Willissk. Teamed up with ullyssia and papillon367 to form the "A Team"
We had another attempt at more of the Kep Track. Chidlow to Mundaring with a few others included. A great day to blow the dust of the deadly treadly and enjoy the fresh air. This was a reasonably easy find
 
11-Aug-18
Today was a perfect day for another bite at the Kep track with ullyssia and Photo-Play, starting in Chidlow and finishing in Mundaring. This was a fairly quick find but the log is quite wet. Thank you for the cache Willissk.
