I'm on a road trip from the NSW/Vic border. We have been caching along the way and have now turned for home. Nice quick find while we pulled over to look at the silo art
TFTC - nice quick find on the way out of town, while stopping to check out the silo art.
Tftclast day of our 4wk trip east and back. Decided to cache heavily from southern cross to Meckering then head home
WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 72 - Wyalkatchem to Westonia via Trayning, Nungarin and Merredin. Today I was back at heading to new Counties. I stopped at as many of the roadside caches as I could. I did a few cemetery multis. When I reached Merredin, it was time to do some Labs alongside some great caches around town. I was happy to get off the main road and head towards Westonia where my afternoon was split up by a few different activities before cooking dinner at the van. I'm heading back west on a new row of counties north of the past few.I was not initially planning to come out to this cache, but the Labs I was doing brought me out here, so I took the extra time to locate this cache and sign the log.Thanks for the cache mavz24348351.17 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & Geocaching NSW 2016 A#449**Albida**

Just a quick drive in. No comment on the art as I have been spoilt in the Eastern states. TFTC
On the Way to Perth we are today on the road from Merredin to Kelleberin. We found a lot of good geocaches. Some a nice places, some just on the street. Thank you for the Cache !
We noticed this cache needed a new log book so we stopped by on the way home to replace it.
All good to go and ready for more visits.
Merredin is the home of a great bakery. Do yourself a favour and get something tasty while driving through.

Was driving through today on my way to an overnight camp in Westonia, before heading on to Kalgoorlie tomorrow. Day 1 of a 2-week road trip Another quick but interesting stop off. Good to see the sign included the coords... but even better to make a super fast find of the cache No problems here today - TFTC

Day 5 of my trip to Geraldton to see old friends that aren't traveling too well aiming for any adventure labs, earth caches and virtual's and of course any others that appear on the radar.
I was in the area doing one of the stages of the Labs and enjoying the fantastic view when I noticed this one on the screen. It will be great when the adventure Labs and geocaching finally get together so you only have to use one map.
Once at gz the cache was located quickly and our name was added to the log.
Thanks mavz243 for the cache.

Been in Merredin for years and only just realised these are a thing in the wheatbelt and all over WA
On the long train from Adelaide and was hoping to catch a glimpse of this mural but we’re on the wrong side and we can’t get off
A fun trip but not good for caching. I just wanted to log this to the prove that I was here.

On a road trip around the wheatbelt areas of Western Australia for a few weeks. We are enjoying the many friendly towns along the way, whether staying in the CP’s or camping out. So far, we have found every cache that we have looked for, and hopefully our streak will last as we move around to the next town and beyond. Thank you so much to the CO’s of every cache for placing them for our enjoyment. They certainly bring you to many spots that you might not stop at otherwise.
Have found many of the ‘leaping’ caches so far, and this one has been added to the list.

Went out late in the evening with a touch and found it straight away.
Great spot.
Great spot.
I arrived at the same time as a convoy of four 4WDs, making it rather cramped in the parking bay. Just as I was thinking that they were all going to stare at the silos forever, they simultaneously left. A quick find and sign thereafter. Thanks mavz243.
Probsty and I hatched a plan to knock off the northern wheat belt LGA’s after signing the Regional Cacher Challenge in Kulin. Not a bad effort, with 1000kms of driving on a cool winter’s day.

Hi mavz243, found “Leaping in Merredin” today on the way out to get some wheatbelt LGA caches with Morgo. Decided it was time to knock off the northern wheatbelt LGAs after signing a wheatbelt challenge cache in Kulin last weekend. Planned a 1000km round trip for 13 LGAs today!

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for us to find. Having driven up for Busselton it was pretty dark by the time I got here. We will have to drop by in the daylight to see the artwork.
Great art. Probably wouldn’t have stopped without this and good to know all about it.
