29. IGD 2021 - Geocacher Malyalling, Western Australia, Australia
By Probsty and Morgo the Geo on 17-Jul-21. Waypoint GC9F3G6

Out and about in the Wheatbelt, with the typical winter weather, howling wind, freezing cold, the odd drizzle of rain but nothing to get us drenched!A few rather large puddles on the edges of the road to jump over to get to some of the caches, a little bit of fun to see if this oldie can still do it!! I didnt fall in, so thats even better!Its nice and quiet out here on the back roads, only the odd vehicle passing by as we stopped to pick up a cache.All the caches were found easily, a couple were wet, but all were easy to retrieve, open, the with signing duties done and dusted, the caches were replaced as found.Thanks for the puzzles and the series out here in the Wheatbelt.TFTC

We had solved the puzzles in this series soon after they were published but this was the first opportunity we had to come back to find them! We found all the caches we attempted, some easier than others! The weather was horrendous, freezing cold and windy! It was very wet and muddy and we had to wade in to some of the sites but we had the best time! Some very different cache containers, thanks Morgo the geo and apologies for the generic log but there were just sooo many!

Found at 11:48 AM GAFF1.These caches are well placed, with excellent co-ords and in very logical spots for us cachers to spot. Makes for an excellent series that will be reported in dispatches Thanks to Probsty

Finding caches without taking the phone and by hints and distance alone can have a down side in places like this. Umm.... which one............ Got it! TFTC Probsty.

WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 31 - Wickepin area day. My plan for the day was the IGD series west of Wickepin. I had a lot of them sorted out before I left home and last night I finished th rest of the puzzles, only leaving the field puzzles to be dealt with. I started with the drive along to The Rabbit Proof Fence Road via a few tree caches. Then there were some great artwork or gadget caches before a pit stop for a chat with a local cacher, always great to meet locals. From there it was into the IGD. It was steady caching, only a few were a problem to locate for me. I should have kept up with the final puzzles, so in the end there was quite a bit of doubling back to get to those, but they were all sorted out and found before heading back to camp at Wickepin. I took a short break to relax and have a snack before going on a walk around the ton to find the three local caches. Dinner at the van tonight, the pub is not operating at the moment. Off to Wagin tomorrow for two more counties.There was no walking for the driving section of the day, all the caches were within a few meters of the road and with few exceptions, they were all found without any problems.Thanks for the cache Probsty47111.50 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & Ghost Jeep #3 A#45**Albida**

10:06***I used today's free time to fill my cup. This time I decided to go on the IGD - Kulin 2021 geo-art trail.My day started bright and early. I didn't see any cars until around lunchtime (friendly muggler who probably was thinking why there is a car stopped next to the road ) and then many cars on the main road back home. Today I managed to have 73 finds, 4 DNF. Not sure when I will come back to Kulin but there are still plenty of caches around and probably new ones coming along too. So bye 2023 and bring on 2024!

Thanks

Easy one

In Narrogin for WAGB23 - found these today with Coliver66 & Coliver95 , cheers.

Here in Narrogin for WAGB23 - out & about today with geomother @Coliver66 & my human @Bigill95, found these along the way, signed log and returned.

Thank you for the cache and for the series Morgo the geo and Probsty, a quick find here.
Arrived in Narrogin last night for WAGB 2023 and today my plan was to tackle this geo-art since both my usual geocaching buddies already have their smilies here. It was a bit slower by myself but still a very enjoyable day. I only saw 3 cars, and 2 of them were geocachers! All but 2 caches were found very quickly, all clues collected and the series completed. Left a few pathtags and favorite points along the way. I think that solving the Bush Nuts jigidi took me about twice as long as finding all the hides today!

Full time nomads since February 2014, back in WA to visit family.

In Narrogin for WA Goes Big 2023. Wow 10years!

Mrs F wrote a list last night but with a late night chat with PollyMichele a realisation of some new caches another hour to get the GPSr updated and the list was rewritten to add 6 new caches. With a very early start for us (7.00am) via the Hot Bread shop a full on day followed with over 90smilies including 4 x FTF and 2 x STF.

Wickepin Day 2
This morning we headed back to the IGD trail, had to wait longer at the road works this time.
This was a good series, with good hints & some interesting cache containers. Continued our trek back along the Rubbit proof fence picking up the many caches on our way home.
This afternoon it was looking for caches closer to town.
Thankyou to the CO's for placing these caches.

TFTC. Day 3 of caching adventure. We have had this series solved for a long time and are happy to be out and about collecting the smilies. Thanks for the series and placing these caches for us to find. Signed and replaced as found

pug002 found it 14/8/22 on our trip to Kulin geocaching. Same thing Geo Hubby and Geo pug puppy stayed in the car unless I needed help. TFTC Probsty:)]

Found on a solo trip to the west from SA.

I last visited and cached in this area around three years ago, but there have been plenty of new caches of interest to me since then, so I thought a return visit was in order.

There is quite a bit more water laying around and the ground is much wetter than when I was last here. That has caused a few inconvenient road closures, necessitating changes in plans, and restricted access to some of the caches I was keen to get to. Such is life!

I camped near Kulin last night and completed the Tin Horse Highway series this morning then made my way to this series.

I found all but one of the puzzle caches in the series and spent a bit of time sloshing through waterlogged ground and jumping over drains and puddles to get to some of them. A lot of the areas along the trail were under water, but all the caches were high and dry, although many had a little water in them and logbooks were damp. The one puzzle cache I didn’t attempt was surrounded by a ‘moat’ of sorts that I didn’t feel like wading through!

Thanks Probsty for a great puzzle series.

Awesome day out. Thanks. Tftc

Completing the mysteries this trip and the trads next… thank you for this series here and geo art!

Tftc found this one on a great week of caching with ringtailposs and pixel the physico pug and cache bear

Found today with falcon351, geohound pixel and cachebear tftc

Today was the day I hit Kulin, having lots of puzzles solved, but not visited.
Thanks Morgo the geo and Probsty for their efforts. Some fun containers used.

Out for another caching adventure in Kulin with BJA3.  This trip has been planned for a while to come and finish off from last year's IGD event.

Cache & log in good condition,  TFTC!

Day 2 of long weekend caching with TeamBarritts in Kulin and surrounds. Tftc!

On a road trip around the wheatbelt areas of Western Australia for a few weeks. Re-visiting beautiful Kulin. We were here almost a year ago completing the THH. It’s always a friendly little town and a great caravan park. Spent a few days here finding all the many new caches that were placed in the last year. Thought we would need a week, but we managed them all in two days. Thanks to all the CO’s for placing the many varied cache containers and for all the puzzles to solve. We really enjoyed finding all the caches.

Find 43 of 77 with 1 DNF, finishing off the Tin Horse Highway and almost finishing the IGD Wogolins.

TFTC Probsty!

Walked back to this cache and claimed another quick find once I arrived.

Day two on the charge to 1000 finds for the calendar year had SirFancy and I up early and heading to grab all the caches of the IGD Compass geo-art.
We enjoyed the coolness of the morning with SirFancy walking to grab the traditionals while I used the car to grab the puzzles.
After grabbing some FTF’s and fuel in Kulin we headed back to the farm to have a very late breakfast before starting our way home via Wickepin and Narrogin.
Another successful day in the Wheatbelt arriving home with 73 finds and 0 DNF’s

Day 2 of 2 for Myself and Cirrus_WA’s Kulin trip, We woke up early and headed out to do the IGD series, then as we were finishing we were just finishing we got word that some FTF’s were available near Kulin town, we stop past and picked up Burns345 and we landed at GZ and scored the FTF’s and it was back to the homestead for shower and breakfast for me.

Cirrus_WA and I then made our way back home stopping through Wickepin and Narrogin getting caches on the way.

Been a great two days with over 140 finds and 0 DNF’s.




This is my 1163 find.
Thank you Probsty for placing and maintaining this cache.

Another big day trip with redlipsandunicorns and little eevee to clear up some more caches up this way. We left early and got back late, got rained on but all caches were found. A big thanks to all the CO,S for placing these caches for everyone to find.

Found on Wednesday. Loved the deserted roads; didn’t see another car! Thanks for the caches.

Out and about with richlink gathering up some of the new caches that have popped up in and around Kulin since our last visit a couple of months ago.
We really enjoyed the day, dodging some very heavy showers and trying to avoid the constant icy wind. The variety of hides and cache containers are awsome.
We appreciate the work required to set up the puzzles and then to hide them & maintain them.
Our thanks to all involved.

Out with ILT on a bitterly cold and blustery day Arrived just as the rain started. Thanks Probsty and Morgothegeo

Now that IGD 2021 is over and all the caches in the geo-art have been found, I can now log all of my co-conspirator’s caches (with approval of Probsty of course).

Excellent work Probsty, the series has and will continue to be a success.

How nice is the canola!!

At the bonfire the owner showed us this piece of Geo-Art.
Therefore this morning we solved some of the puzzles.
Some puzzles we didn't solve, but we found the caches as well, because in the gaps we looked for the traces on the road, and the cacher-highways.

After a heavy group puzzle solving session we ventured out to claim our prizes. TFTC

Great Geoart, thanks Morgo and Probsty for a great job.

**FTF**Woohoo! Part two of an epic day - we were sitting around logging this mornings finds when our phones went off. We all looked at one another and new this would need to be a team effort. Very impressed with the geoart. We raced off each if us having our own chore. Navigator, driver, problem solver, puzzle grinder, finders and pow! Off we went. Such an exciting buzz to see a new series out here and loved that it was not all the same. Sure kept us on our toes! Signed as ‘The Tinnies’ Bravo morgothegeo for putting together a sweet series. A lot of work put into this! Cheers!

Out and about for day 2 of the Kulin event weekend! Thank you to all the COs for their efforts!

We were lounging back at the hotel shooting the breeze after an epic 24hours at IGD in Kulin when this series came out so we rolled into the cars and made our way towards this seriously impressive geoart.

Solving puzzles on the fly, some teamwork and some guesswork and we had an absolute blast out here.

Thanks morgo the geo and probsty for a great series.

Moving towards GZ and solving on limited cell reception had us doubling back on these roads a few times this afternoon. Made for a good afternoon signed as team Tinnies *FTF*
