It's the time for Mr Hunters' to take his big annual leave chunk for the year, 1.5 years into his first full time social work role in his home city of Canberra. This year, I decided to jump on my parents' holiday to Perth (next week) but beforehand, I wanted a solo geocaching splurge. I spotted the LGA series not too far from Perth, so I soon booked accommodation for 5 nights in Boddington with the intention to finish the entire series within that time. I was really looking forward to some quiet time for solo geocaching and to have simple pub meals in a quiet country town, I've been extremely busy over the past few months and given my job involves a lot of emotional energy, I wanted to visit a secluded location as far away from home as you can get, absolutely brilliant. I've hired a Toyota Landcruiser at a bargain price and put together a list of albums to listen to whilst on the drive (for each day's log, I'll list the albums that I listened to that day).Fri 15 Nov: The cool change was felt very much today, it was 10 degrees cooler and the breeze was around the for the whole day, a lovely drive indeed. 185 caches today, I had 16 DNFs though which would've put me over 200 for the day, but all good! Saw one sheep escape through the fence and wandering around on the road, then accidently frightened a herd of cows when I accidently honked my car horn. One muggle car did stop to ask what I was doing, but it was a very positive conversation. At this rate, I should have the series finished (i.e. all caches found or attempted) by tomorrow, but we'll see! Today's albums: ABBA Gold (ABBA), The Very Best (INXS), Found It (The Travel Bugs), Six: The Musical (Six), Graceland (Paul Simon), Sultans of Swing: The Very Best of Dire Straits (Dire Straits), Future Nostalgia (Dua Lipa), Radical Optimism (Dua Lipa), Storm Front (Billy Joel), River of Dreams (Billy Joel).
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.

In the area to knock off a few more of this monumental PowerTrail that has inspired us over the years to place our own PT. Love the effort that has gone into this with great placements and great hints. Apologies for the generic logs....I know you understand! We started at 520am (the first dozen were tough in the dark) and finished at 1250pm and managed another 167 finds today with only a handful of DNFs due to land clearing and fences being replaced....a fun and enjoyable day, albeit exhausting..... we were hoping to beat our daily find record of 201 which we achieved last time we were out here but we may have set our bar too high on such a glorious sunny day and in the end the idea of a pub lunch and a beer back at Quindanning was too tempting. No problemo, still leaves another 150-ish for us to come back to. Thank you FellowshipOfTheTrail for another fun day out finding caches!
Impromptu trip to Albany meant I could stop past this series and knock a couple off.

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.**

Find 223 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.

Today TaurusSix and I were initially unsure what our geocaching plan might look like. One of us had to work this morning so it was only going to be for an afternoon at best. However we did decide that we wanted to collect a few today to keep our stats up for the month and for the year. So we decided to head back to the LGA series and collect another string. We headed out via Collie to. Williams stopping off at Collie for a quick bakery lunch then once in Williams we entered the series through Carne Road. The weather was overcast and there had clearly been rain but so far so good it is holding up for us.
This is our twenty first geocaching find of the day. The sun is out the birds are singing, the nearby sheep are baaaing and all in all it is a lovely afternoon geocaching in the country. TFTC
Thanks again Fellowship of The Trail for placing and maintaining this series. It is very much appreciated.

A big weekend finishing off the LGA series and finding caches in the surrounding areas with the BODS11 crew (Meme28, Burns345, I C Nothing, Kapelula, Cirrus_WA, Sir Fancy, Leg5, Lachlan1.77, geotrakka, PilotJen and PilotMal). Sorry about the generic logs.
Team BODS11 Saturday morning, up and left at 6am to complete all 563 LGA caches near Boddington.
This is my 2489 find.
Thank you FellowshipOfTheTrail for placing and maintaining this cache.

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.

Started our 2nd tour of WA now touring around the south. 10 January 2022 1:42 pm Tyfc FellowshipOfTheTrail total caches now 3543
On a maintenance run to the LGA series checking on a few hides. This container was indeed missing, replaced with a new preform.
There was a rock at GZ as indicated by the hint but as the last visitor mentioned there was no cache container. It appears that this cache is MIA
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.
This one had a pile of rocks but no cache that we could locate sadly

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
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.
Out for a day of caching, nice quick and easy find. Nice area for a drive, very quiet out here.

Big day of caching/cycling the WA LGA series on Zilko & Narrakine Road with Morgo the geo, then we jumped onto NSW series on Carne Road. Thanks for the series, an awesome day. nice quick finds
The LGA series has been on the list for a long time. Probsty and I stitched up a plan of heading off early, riding the MTB’s along Zilko Rd from Quindanning to Williams and crack the ton. We did with 130 finds, both our biggest day of caching. We stayed at the Ye Olde English Inne, an iconic pub of Quindanning and the start of the Captain Fawcett Track.
Thanks to the Fellowship of the Trail for such an epic series. So much fun and so many more still to find.

Staying in wandering for a couple days and after doing a local town loop and cache we hit this series for a few finds
Headed out for a morning of caching before camping for the night at the new Lake Kepwari camp site (which i highly recommend). Around 180 caches found woth only a couple of DNF's.

Hi there FellowshipOfTheTrail.
We found your cache **"LGA Upper Lachlan Shire NSW"** today. (This makes our find count 23163).
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

We moved though this part of the series quickly as they were in obvious locations mostly. This one was the same placement as the mast few we have found. Quick and easy. Great for Numbers.
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
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.
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. Thnak you for putting all the caches out there for us to find.
A trip to Perth on my leave saw me do 21 on the way up, starting at LGA Orroroo/Carrieton SA through to LGA Wandering.
The white ants in the host at the first or second one along here had claimed ownership of the preform container so had to find a screwdriver to chip it out.
Thought I was going to DNF at LGA Narrabri but walked around a bit and found the log sheet alone about 15 meters further along the road in the grass. Located a clipseal bag in the car (which had my tea bags in) and replaced it under the rock at the tree for my return journey where I put it in to a small sistema. All good here now.
Return journey a few days later had me doing the 25 from LGA Chittering to LGA Narembeen. Had one DNF which was at LGA Westonia and suspect it may actually be MIA due to proximity to a nearby farmhouse. Did not have anything to make a full replacement.
Have finally made a start on the LGA series after it has been out for almost 2 years now.
Had fun and broke the trip up nicely.
Thanks for the series FOTT.
Cheers

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 3 today with 166 smilies.
An adventurous day with a mob of sheep being herded up the road towards us, then a muggle farmer asking why we were at her new fence. Into Williams for some petrol and whaddya know 5km up the road we had a flat tyre with a screw in it.
TFTC Guys.

FellowshipOfTheTrail this is my 24th cache of 213 finds of the day and brings my total find count to 480. The container is in good condition. SLTFTC.
DAY 2 out in Boddington with Team Bastholm and Cassie & Co, on an adventurous two day trip.
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.
On our tour to Perth from Albany we passed this trail. It was a nice trail, we found many caches. Thanks from Sweden.
Day 1 of 2 with Geogypsy on our round trip to Perth to visit the family.
A lot of unique and fun caches along the way up SWH.

After flying 'over West', caching in Perth for a day and a bit and then hitting the LGA trail yesterday it was time to see whether I could achieve another 'tonne' on the LGA power trail today. Despite starting a little later than yesterday I seemed to be a little more trail 'fit' and only DNF'd a couple whilst finding 105 including a regular sized ammo can! I think that deserves the FP that I generally award a power trail.
Thanks to all those involved for putting the caches out and no doubt attending to regular maintenance issues. The roads used for the trail are decently remote and no doubt a maintenance run would take a fair chunk of a day to complete even for those living reasonably close. Any other contributors would probably have to contribute a full day what with the travel to and from home. This interstate cacher appreciates the effort taken.

I had a (pleasantly) unexpected day off work today so decided to head down here again for the 6th time to get some numbers to bring me closer to my milestone 5000th. Approximately 50 very quick finds with one DNF.
I noted that some of the caches were some way from their original hiding spots - I suspect they have been moved by animals as they become more active in the warmer weather, so hopefully future finders will remember to place a rock or two on top of those at ground level to prevent cache creep. TFTC

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!
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.

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 2820 for me and was number 176 in my run of 217 finds and 9 DNFs for today's geocaching effort.

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 for this great series Fellowship of the Trail.
Had done a couple during road trips recently so decided this is a great spot in winter for racking up quick finds for the challenge. Started at Crossman area then ventured further south and picked up all on Narrakine. Enjoyed the easy finds with good company (AD & kbnbn) and good music. Jumped the gentle winter stream flowing to retrieve some. Good to see farm country so beautiful & green with plenty of new lambs and calves. It took us a couple of hours and caches were found in great condition excepting 2 DNF (one from recent fire, one MIA) and only one wet log. Thanks again.

Started at Crossman area then ventured further south and picked up all on Narrakine. Enjoyed the easy finds with good company (AD & kbnbn) and good music. Jumped the gentle winter stream flowing to retrieve some. Good to see farm country so beautiful & green with plenty of new lambs and calves.

Have been wanting to do these caches for quite some time now and finally had a spare weekend free! So geo wife and I decided to book a night in Boddington on the Friday and make our way through the caches on the Saturday. Nice country side to been seen as we travelled along. Quick and easy finds! We will have to come back again to finish the rest!! TFTC
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 #5523.
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.
I found it at 7:44:00 AM on Sunday, 04 March 2018
This is my find #21 out of 209 today.
Total finds to date : 6300

Headed out over the long weekend with Granett and Kyzabra for a bit of camping and a lot of caching.
Trying to have a big day or two knocking of the LGA series, and a few others.

Found it. TFTC FellowshipOfTheTrail. On the way to Albany and . . Oh dear ! I took a wrong turn. Just couldn't resist the temptation to do a few more of this great series. Only have a limited time so I will not be finished today but i'll be back to do another section later.
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.

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
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
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 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.

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.
Part of our clan got together and decided on an ambitious total of approx 224 for the day. We drove down from home base (Perth area) bright and early. We - muskcat83, janssej & ctvdlinden - split the kids up and continued on. We had a great day out and found 221 (4 DNF's). Thanks for the series and so happy they are back online again.
Joined up with Geosister (janssej) and Brother and Sister in laws clan (ctvdlinden) on a preplaned trip to do the LGA series in Williams. We logged all our finds with MCJ (a play on MCG as we are all cricket lovers). TFTC and the putting the series together. All in all, we found 221 caches for the day and 4 dnf's.
This was the 26th cache for the day, the weather forecast was for warm weather, but it didn’t bother us at all. A great day out.
Currently, I haven’t found any caches in this LGA as i haven't been to NSW as a geocacher yet.

Headed out to make a big dent in this series. All up we had 221 finds for the day (220 in this series) and 4dnf's. All caches signed as MCJ to represent the clan Muskat83, ctvdlinden and myself, janssej, which was an easy acronym to remember seeing the cricket was on the radio.
All in all, a great day out - the heat didn't affect us too much as I think it was cooler in Boddington than it was in the metro area. Lots of competition going on, especially between all the geokids as to who would have success at each cache. Thanks for the great series and glad it's back online!
None of my 3 NSW caches were found in this LGA.
