Area looks overgrown with spikey plants, I searched around the non-spikey tree but there were still lots of branches and bark, couldn't spot the cache
WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 35 - William Day. I stayed an extra night in William to have a go at the LGA trail on a day I needed plenty of caches. I did sleep in a bit and I got away at a leisurely time of the morning, but I was still on the rail at 0930. I had an enjoyable two hours doing sixty out of sixty six caches. All that I found except one or two were in great condition for their age. There have been a few replacements, and the mint tins do not serve well as containers along here. There were six DNFs, all due to farmers clearing fence lines for new fences and in some places burning of the remains. Once had done all the aches I was planning on doing I headed back into town and got to some home work, catching up on logging. The whole verge has been cleared. Thanks.Albida
Very bushy, stump at gz, loads of leaves so no luck today, could be there just too many leaves for us today
Williams now camping in the caravan park
Back on the LGA trail again today
Thankyou to the CO's for placing these caches.

First Day (for us) On The.... *LGA!*
Another very nice find on a geocaching adventure with woolwood9.
We enjoyed the drive / walk around the area.
Our Experience:
Had a couple of farmers stop us who didn't seem very happy about this trail at all.
On day 3 we were talking to a farmer who was very friendly and happy about it!
Tons of dust, 36 degrees - energy draining heat, seeds in socks, flies and spiders.
OVERALL: great fun and fantastic numbers of finds!
**Appreciate the efforts of all involved.**

Found it. TFTC FellowshipOfTheTrail. Came to this area to try to finish the ones I missed in the LGA series. This was a DNF in Nov'2018. Roadworks here at the moment but still happy to make a find here today, replaced as found.
Today the geocaching mission for TaurusSix and I is to head back to the LGA series and collect another string of geocaches . We have really enjoyed doing stretches of this trail over several months and visits now. It is always a nice drive, we love getting out into the country, for the most part it is quite deserted and muggle free. And of course we like to collect lots of caches. Today the weather is particularly pleasant, a lovely spring day with the sun shining and a light breeze. The canola in the nearby fields is looking particularly spectacular at the moment with lots of rolling yellow paddocks as far as the eye can see. All in all a perfect day for geocaching.
This is our thirty fifth cache find of the day along with two dnf’s. This is a particularly peaceful stretch of the trail, we have not seen a muggle all day and that’s a good thing. TFTC

Find 143 of 223 with 6 DNFs on our biggest ever day of caching. Back in June after hitting 9000 finds, we set a target to get to 10000 before our 10 year anniversary of starting caching which was back in September 2012. This series along with a three week trip to Europe were always going to be key to getting our quickest thousand and after today we are a lot closer.
We started out early (not as early as some) and cached from 915 till 5ish with a long break in Boddington for lunch. We soon got into the rhythm of leapfrogging with Mrs O in the car and Mr O on a mountain bike covering 55km across the day, up hill and down dale, on gravel, sand and tarmac.
This awesome series is the pre-eminent power trail in WA and we are so happy it is almost on the doorstep. Thanks to everyone involved in the organisation, placement and maintenance of these caches.

Out on a caching weekend with Team BODS11 the main aim is to locate and log all the LGA Series caches. Glad to say that mission completed. Thanks FOTT for this series.
Our plan on Day 2 of our big bods weekend had the BODS11 team hitting the road straight for the LGA’s. Awesome series.
Cache found and logged!

Started our 2nd tour of WA now touring around the south and doing the LFA series. Thank you for a great series. 11 January 2022 10:57 am Tyfc FellowshipOfTheTrail total caches now 3548
One of our targets for our current visit to Western Australia is the Local Government Area series near Boddington. We made a start about a week ago and then went to Bunbury and Busselton for a few days. Yesterday we returned to Boddington to continue the LGA series.
With overnight rain, we wondered about the state of the gravel roads but they were good. Rain fell of and on for the first hour or so, but the weather gradually improved during the remainder of the day and we had a good days caching. Today we looked for 131 of the LGA caches, finding all but seven of them. Unless stated otherwise, accurate coordinates and the hints led to quick finds. The cache containers were in good condition but, as should be expected, many of the log books are showing signs of being used by many cachers, some being badly torn. On the other hand, it was pleasing to see today that a number of containers and logbooks have been replaced.
We really enjoy the concept of the LGA trail. Congratulations to the members of the FellowshipOfTheTrail on an excellent series which must have taken extensive planning and a large amount of time to prepare and place each of the caches.

7th go at finishing this great series. Thank you for all involved in placing out caches. Funny that it has not been accessed much this year. So sad that 13 out of the 72 we did today could not be found. Put a watch on them all so we can come back one day and find them along with the other 10 dnf's from other sections. Hopefully they need replacing and we're not there.
The day was all about finding as many caches as we could on the LGA series. Headed out early but went on a detour to grab a FTF available in our own LGA which had been taunting us for a week. After a bit of off-roading, and another FTF added to our stats, we headed off again. Two hours later we arrived in Quindanning ready to start the trail. The weather wasn’t the best - cold and blustery, but any day you can get out for a bit of caching is a good day. Thoroughly enjoyed the day searching for these caches with Pollythecollie finding 124 caches with only 4 DNFs recorded. Thanks FOTT for your work in creating and maintaining this series.
Thank you to the fellowship of the trail crew for placing this series for us to find. Up early today to get on the road to get as many of the series as we could. With a goal in mind to qualify for certain challenge caches. Distracted by a FTF in Kirup we didn’t get up here until just before lunch. Made up time on the trail and managed to miss the rain. All containers were found in good condition on coordinates unless other wise noted
I spoke too soon! After some refreshed motivation and perseverance we found it! Was rather buried and not as per the hint, have moved it to reflect the hint.
Probsty and I were always going out to finish the Quindanning LGA caches today. We diverted off to Harvey Dam for some recently published caches. We hit before Mundays Rd first up before tacking Narrakine Rd. There is no one around and the caches are rolling into each other.
We had a huge day of hunting LGAs and a massive thanks to the Fellowship of the Trail for placing and maintaining them. It’s a big job and we really appreciate it.
This one was a tough one. The tree at GZ has suffered a terrible fate... the now stump is sprouting like crazy and concealed the cache very well. With a bit of pruning and digging we found the cache. Hopefully it is easier to find now.

Another day on the LGA series. Beautiful views all around here. Thanks for the caches and sorry for the generic posts. TFTC
On a maintenance run to the LGA series checking on a few hides. This container was indeed missing, replaced with a new preform.
A maintenance run is planned for early in the new year, apologies for the delay.
Hi there FellowshipOfTheTrail.
We found your cache **"LGA Conargo NSW"** today. (This makes our find count 23122).
Today we headed out from Williams and attempted our second loop of the LGA group of caches. We thoroughly enjoyed today's cache finds, but please excuse our boilerplate logs - we know it's not really a good excuse, but we find it difficult to craft individual logs when we attempt so many similar caches in a day. [:(!]
We found 133 caches today & DNF'd 1. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels. Our log or stamp is not necessarily placed in the last spot in the book or sheet. If we find a blank spot when we open the log - that is where it goes.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found most caches within a few metres of where our GPS said we should be looking. [:(!] (We did have to look a little further afield for some though). [:(!]
**Cache Condition:** The containers and log books were mostly in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny

After getting up nice and early (4:00) i made the journey from Albany to start The Fellowship of the Trails LGA series. It did not disappoint, starting at Carne rd and wandering through the the back roads till light became dark and i became thirsty! So i settled into the Quindanning inne for a couple of brews and a beautiful meal (thanks ladies) All up a huge day of hunting. Thanks for putting out this series, it must have taken all involved a huge effort which i'm sure all geocachers are very happy with. TFTC
Tagged along with Gma Allinaday to find the FellowshipOfTheTrail series. We had a fun few days looking for all caches. I loved all the lambs in the fields but the red back spiders that were on a few of the caches not so much. Thank you for putting all the caches out there for us to find.
Finally had a spare few days to go and tackle the FellowshipOffTheTrail series with my two granddaughters. Accommodation booked in Boddington a few months earlier, which we used as our base, we set off in high spirits to find all those caches. We had some big days, and also a few shorter ones. Given that it was the middle of winter, we had near perfect caching weather. Not a drop of rain, the roads were nice and smooth with little dust. The fields were lush and green with an abundance of newly born lambs, which were a never ending source of amusement for the girls. We found most of the caches where they were meant to be. Some had been strewn a number of metres away by animals. Some fences have been realigned....one cache location was some 10metres inside a new fence. Some caches have been wiped out by the grader widening the road and pushing all the dirt up. Some trees have also succumbed to new fences. Wherever possible, we have replaced caches.....approx. 26 or so, which will keep the trail alive. Many thanks to those responsible for placing all these caches. I can only imagine how much time has gone into that.
Apologies for the generic logs and thanks for the series. We do not apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to Fellowship of the Trail for placing these here for our enjoyment.

Decided went to LGA series for weekend...
Found all caches BUT expect two caches called LGA Wiluna WA and LGA Gloucester NSW - the tree is gone and another landscape - assume for new fence...
Saw a pair of tawny frogmouth owl, Snake, a kangaroo, blue-tongued, plenty farm animals...
Thanks for FellowshipOfTheTrail for the hide the cache and hunt.

Well we had plans to be in Albany this week, but plans changed so we were heading towards Dunsborough when plans changed again! Needed somewhere to stop for 1 week and the LGA series popped up on our radar!
So day 2 today and a leisurely start at 10.00 and back at the caravan by 4.30pm with 181smilies today.
We did have some trouble today with new fences having been installed, so a fair bit of searching further afield in the hope of finding displaced containers. still a good days hunt.
TFTC Guys.

FellowshipOfTheTrail this is my 78th cache of 213 finds of the day and brings my total find count to 534. The container is in good condition. SLTFTC.
My seventh visit to LGA country, and sadly not my last as unlike other cachers I have limited tolerance for power trails and so cap my caching day at 2 hours/50 finds. Looks like I'll have to make another two or three visits in order to complete the map. Sought 50 today and found all 50 - no DNFs which makes for a relatively pleasant day. All were quick finds as per the hint. TFTC
The caching effort today was a record one with 154 caches found. It was cooler today, so the assault on the LGA series with goingplaces2, gave a great result. Most were easy to find. All logs had initials used. Thanks go to FellowshipOfTheTrail for this cache placement.
As it started out being a much cooler and rather overcast day, we were soon out hunting caches with ilook4geo. We were determined to make a dent in the locally availables caches and found about 154, which is a total that we were pleased with. Most of the caches in this LGA series were quite quick and easy to find today. Each log had our initials added.Thanks go to FellowshipOfTheTrail for placing this cache and for adding another smiley to our caching map.
After a peaceful night camping at Armoin, megawat60 and I set off to hopefully clear up our remaining FOTT LGA’s. Quick find here, TFTC!
Out again with m4yb hoping to clean up the LGA series plus a few others before we head to WAGB.
Thanks for the smile and hide FOTT

Suscoe was travelling between Perth And Albany today.
We had spotted these trails a while ago and so we just had to take in a few of the roads in the short time we had available
Almost all caches were found in good condition.
It was a lovely Spring day with some sunshine, some cloud and good roads including freshly graded gravel.

Mr Wileyclan and I planned to attack a section of this lengthy series. An early start and a drive to the south most section.
A long day, and success in that we broke a few PBs. for me it was the most in a Day, the most in a Weekend, and the most in a month. Most of the caches were easy finds, some took a little longer to search for, but at least we kept the DNF tally to a low acceptable level.
We had a fun day, we did beleive that the Fellowship missed the opportunity to achieve some silly puns with some of the LGA names.
Fantastic power series.

Thanks FellowshipOfTheTrail for bringing me to this location. I found the cache at 13:11:00. This was my Find 143 for today out of a Total number of 217 Finds and 9 DNF for for this Caching Outing. The cache was found in Good Condition and I returned the cache as I found it.
This find brings my total number of Finds to 4286.

rudi63 and I headed out to have a go at part of the LGA series today. We made the choice to start with the southern section of the series and see how we went. We made pretty good time overall, finding a bit over 200 of them in about 7 hours or so, which included a bit of back tracking over completed areas and also stopping for lunch.
Most of the finds were made rather easily. A few were found out in the open and then replaced where the hint said the cache should be and a few are the dreaded now. Overall a fun, but tiring, day and a big thank you to all that are a part of FellowshipOfTheTrail.
Thanks for the cache FellowshipOfTheTrail, it was cache number 2787 for me and was number 143 in my run of 217 finds and 9 DNFs for today's geocaching effort.
Cheers

Hi there FellowshipOfTheTrail - the current challenge fron GC was a good reason for me to head down and look for some of the LGA series of caches. I headed towards the southermost section and began. In all 222 finds with 3 DNF's (maybe I didn't look hard enough). SL. The container and log are in good contidion for all caches found. Thanks to FellowshipOfTheTrail for this cache - our find #5579.
Granett, SVKR_WA and I had hatched a plan to head out and knock over some of the LGA series and also see how many we could get in a day. Our goal was 200 as we wanted to camp up as well so had to leave early.
We ended up with around 200 of the series. Starting at 7.00ish and finishing here at 1.30pm to head of and find a nearby cache and also do some maintenance.
We had a great day with many laughs shared at the expense of ourselves and also other members of the Fellowship
We decided to head up to Congelin to camp for the night where I am writing this log.
Thanks FellowshipOfTheTrail for placing this cache.

This is my find #58 out of 209 today.

Am super, super happy! They're all done!! Yay!!!
Now I have to log them all. Not so super happy now am I?
Oh well, here goes - all will be pretty much generic, unless something about the cache, the location or something else at gz warrants a mention.
Numbers, numbers, numbers. Not normally my thing, but I did enjoy the two days spent out there with geobuddy marke8183. I supplied the food, drink, directions and other necessities whilst he did the driving, and all without a complaint. Sweet man that he is. And numbers aren't his thing either. He has probably visited about a half of all the caches I have logged and yet he has only logged 158 to date.
The Fellowship of the Trail have put in a lot of work in setting up this power trail. I can only imagine how many visits they had to make to get them all out, and then the maintenance will be ongoing. Power to them!! Awesome work guys. Thanks.

Back again today to finish off this series with Parkacruz. We had another early start and managed to finish the series before 9am. Thankyou FellowshipOftheTrail for the series and maintaining it
Another early day out with neva2old, we hit the road at 3am in aim to finish off the LGA series, which was done in a few hours and started to chip away at a few other series too. We had a great day out and we think we finished off with over 200 smileys for the day (will put the final number in the last log) we had a handful of DNF's after spending a considerable time on the hunt but are happy to say we come up trumps here today TFTC
Tftc out and about to finish this series on a warm day usingthe acronym prfg , hoping we dont come across any snakes ,did find a rather large lizard and a herd of cows that delighted the bulls in the paddock beside us as the passed us down the road. Loving this series.
Out for a day of caching, nice cool weather for an early start leaving Busselton this morning at 5am, only 18 degrees atm, got the first Cache at 7.51am. Caching Under the acronym of PRFG.

A long, record-breaking day with Spatialriq collecting as many caches on the LGA series as we could. 328 in total for me and the only blemish was a section of flooded road we couldn't access.
All quick finds except where the rain had washed the leaf litter around the base of trees.
The ants were out in force but luckily there were no reptiles.
Thanks Fellowship for this great series.

Thanks Fellowship for this great series.
Organised a full caching day with ssclan to find as many of the LGA series as we could. So left the Northern suburbs around 5am arriving at the first cache around 7:15am (after breaky at Armadale maccas). Found the last cache around 5:15pm, and got home around 7:30pm.
Ended up with 329 finds in about 10hrs! Managed to complete the entire Southern section and a good amount of the Western side, apart from 5 that were unreachable due to some flooded roads. Luckily all the rain hadn't effected the roads. Also picked up a few other caches in the area.
A great days geocaching, smashed my previous day record of 150, and also passed the 5,000 finds mark too!
Thanks to the Fellowship for putting all these geocaches out, a massive effort I'm sure.

A great days geocaching, smashed my previous day record of 150, and also passed the 5,000 finds mark too!

Out for a day of caching with MissNerdBerger to grab a few caches to complete some goals that I had set myself for this year, to get 100 finds in a day and complete the year with a least 365 caches.
The day started a little later than expected and after being collected by MNB we started the drive down towards Williams to complete some more of the LGA series that we started just after they got published.
After stopping off for a couple of the Australian Bushrangers series on the drive down we quickly got into a groove collecting the LGA caches. Our morning was quite successful collecting 68 finds, I had a good chat to a farmer who although not a cacher himself was familiar with the activity and mentioned possibly getting into it when he finds some more spare time. With fuel getting a little low and bellies the same we headed into Williams for lunch.
A quick drive south to grab a couple of golden ammo cans and we were back in LGA country and working to the 100 caches in a day goal. Although there was still daylight available to us we made the decision to grab find 100 and start heading back home, after doing the math we still have just over 400 LGA caches to get.
All in all, it was a great day and I was able to get my 365th find for the year with our 30th find (LGA Cunderdin WA), passed 800 total caches (Thomas and John Clarke – Australian Bushranger) and hit triple figures for the day (LGA Bunbury WA)
Thanks to all the CO’s for placing the caches and MNB for joining me.

Back out to finish the LGA series, it was a nice cool day today, not hot and sticky like the last couple of times. Thanks for fixing the caches that we're missing. I really thought it was funny how the Mandurah cache was missing. That will be a mystery that will never be solved. No snakes again today, , but a couple of sand monitors and plenty of bobtail . Thanks to everyone for placing these caches for everyone to find, you guy's did amazing job, which must of taken alot of time. We found the people that live out in the area, to be really friendly and always stopping to see if your ok. Seen some really good wheat crops today, and we seen some really bad cutting of the wheat, MUST be newbies, terrible, left so much money in the padlock. Please be careful with the wheat trucks using the roads this time of the year. Tftc, sl, tnln.
Headed out with Granett this morning to replace a few of the missing LGA series. While we were here we decided to put our name is a few log sheets.
Replaced with a fresh container
FellowshipOfTheTrail - I was out and about today and found your cache LGA Conargo NSW at 10:01:32 on 16 Dec 2017. This find brings my count to 2435.
Thank you for placing this cache and contributing to this great game. The log was signed and cache replaced.

The Fellowship was out today conducting some maintenance on the LGA series. This one was missing, replaced with a new container.
Spent my share of time here and there is mounting DNF's. I think the CO needs to check.
pug002 did not find 12/11/2017 on our trip to do the LGA trail. No sign of it. Thanks for the trail FellowshipOfTheTrail

Day Eighteen of our holiday in Western Oz.
Bettyboo3747 and I loitered around Quindanning, and we did a few more of the LGA series.
A lovely sunny day with green fields, lots of wildflowers, and dry roads.
Our second day on the LGA series. We started near the pub and cut across to Williams for lunch (and out internet fix), then back to do the arms of that track, finishing up back at the pub for dinner.
I think we did most of the WA series and fair slug of the NSW series.
A good container to use for the series, and a nice collection of hides
Thanks, Robmc.

#13183. Day 18 of our WA holiday and our first day based at Quindanning.
A full day chasing more caches in the LGA Series. First cache signed at 8.00am and we put in a solid 3.5 hours before heading into Williams for lunch and for some internet reception.
Another glorious day with fields of gold and fields of green, blue skies and plenty of wonderful scenery in all directions. We are also enjoying the wildflower displays along the roadsides.
We were pleased to see the ammo can at LGA Boddington. At LGA Wandering we had a nasty experience with a swarm of wasps (we originally thought they were bees, but on reflection think they were wasps as they chased us all the way to the car, into the car and would not leave us alone.
After lunch we put in some more hard yards and ended up with a day's total of 202, our best day ever.
Thanks FellowshipOfTheTrails

Found by Mary & David at 1204 on our third and final day on the LGA trail. Delighted to finish them all today. Our thanks to FellowshipOfTheTrail.
We made a very early start today with richlink and JacobsCrew2 to endeavour to complete this series in one day. All caches were found and logs signed with our team name for the day RIJ. We had a lot of fun along the way and retired exhausted at the end of the trail.
Thank you FellowshipOfTheTrail - a sterling effort!
Thank you FellowshipOfTheTrail - a sterling effort!
After conferring with previous finders and at their encouragement, together with iluvtrekking and JacobsCrew2 we decided to embark on an attempt to log all caches in this series in the one day. It took a lot of pre-planning and mapping to be confident we could do it, so Fathers Day was nominated for the quest. Arrived at the first cache before sun up on a day that proved to be very chilly with the temperature not rising above 12 deg all day. We worked systematically through the different sections and were elated to have logged (used RIJ to record our visit) all the finds due to excellent co-ords provided by the various CO's of the series. This is definitely our type of scenery for caching and although it was cold, we all enjoyed the day and will remember it for a long time to come. Thank you FellowshipOfTheTrail
Day 1 of the LGA caches.
7.5 hours of caching saw us with just over 200 finds.
After seeing these published last week we hatched a plan to make a start on this series on our next days off. Booked a nights accommodation and left home bright and early armed with some information from previous finders, the most important being the addition of wellie boots to our TOTTs.
A huge thanks to the Fellowship of the Trail lads for a great series.
TFTC FellowshipOfTheTrail this is find # 2857 for us.

As part of the FOTT I am pleased to be able to log this one as a find! The series took many months of planning and was not without the odd hiccup but we managed to jump the hurdles and keep the series in place. A fantastic addition to geocaching in WA and I am proud of the efforts of the other FOTT members (AlliedOz, Granett, KrabiBoy, Kyzabra and SVKR_WA) for all they have done in getting this series up and running.
2TF WebblyWA & I decided that we would have a crack at this series but that we would do it at a leisurely pace....there really is no alternative for me anyway. We spent some of our time craftily dodging showers of rain & leaping over impromptu streams. Well I sought of gracefully stepped over little streams but Webby had to bound over gushing torrents of water, she was successful too.....most of the time
We agreed to sign the logs WeePP.....I think.....but to be honest I got a bit confused & signed various abbreviations of our combined team names. We were second behind Team Bock, for all but one...
We had a fantastic few hours down here and a HUGE thank you goes to The Fellowship of The Trail

With pesky and inconvenient work taking up my Friday and my phone pinging to remind me of what I was missing, (The closest ones were in my notification range) I had to settle for clearing out over 100 emails from my inbox and a Saturday assault. I joined up with PP2 and we decided to tackle the southerly caches first. There were no logs online but we knew they would be gone!
We arrived at/in Chittering to make a start and saw our first 'BOCK' Log guessing immediately what it stood for. A theme for all but 2 today. We added our names next to them 'WePP' and continued along the quiet roads. Seeing less than 10 cars from the time we turned off the highway to the time we reappeared. A great day out jumping puddles, climbing embankments, dodging the rain and quick and easy finds. We only had one muggle driver question us and the passenger had at least heard of geocaching told her, "its kind of like orienteering" - this satisfied the driver and they continued on. Massive thanks to the Fellowship Of The Trail team your hard work is to be commended. A huge bonus for Western Australia. Congratulations to the FTFing team of the century too- Team BOCK. I didn't quite beat my best day caching but wasn't far off maybe next time.
