I looked in the trees. They have so many holes. Then I checked the comments again. Apparently the coordinates are pretty good. So I stood there and looked. And then I saw it. TFTC

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.Here were a few campers some distance from the cache area. I did a lap before I was very happy to fins the outer contain ere where it was. This could have been so much worse.Thanks for the cache Barrikon48355.21 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 2016 10th Anniversary Compass Rose Pyxis A#338**Albida**

Found it once we followed the GPS.. instinct had it totally wrong.The rain hadn't stopped and we were complaining about getting wet again but at least we hadn't tipped a cement truck over like someone had on the corner across the road. There's now a new bit of road furniture in the form of a pile of cement. I reckon that guy would have been wishing he hadn't turned up for work today. TFTC Barrikon.

After spending a few days in Gawler it was time for to drive my mums (well my car now) from Gawler back to Perth. This was day five travelling from Coolgardie to home in Balcatta on a 5 day 3,100km adventure. There are hundreds of signs saying do not drive tired so geocaching helped with that.I trucked on across the beautiful scenery grabbing many caches.It was a nice cool beautiful morning and i headed out of town to grab some caches to the north and back into town to grab a couple then headed west grabbing lots of caches on the final leg of my adventure.This was a very quick find with a 4wd full of muggles watching me on the other side.Thanks for the cache Barrikon.

A quick find with geo hero sitting in the car watching me heading for the cactus. He casually gets out and finds the cache which was right under my nose the whole time. TFTC and for the proximity of it to a loo.

Out and about again, after camping out at the Aurora Ranges overnight, headed back home via GE Hwy. made some regular stops to get some caches along the way home with some big detours.

Found a variety of hides and in different areas which made for a nice day. Generally quick finds today

Thanks to all the CO’s for the hides I found.
 
06-Nov-22
We went towards the GZ and glad it wasn't in the cactus plant. While thinking about possibilities we saw the probable cache location.
Cache was found and logged.
We then sat under the nearby pergola and made some afternoon tea.
Its a popular place for self contained campers to overnight.
Be aware that there are Double Gee's. Check the bottom of your shoes so you don't take them home or move them to other places down the road.

After finishing the Great Southern Land series and Lab cache the Better Half and I were tossing up whether to stay another night in the area or head home.

It was a great day of caching but was a bit tired so we voted to head for home.

A quick stop here and a quick find. Log signed and replaced.

Thanks Barrikon for placing this cache here for us to find.

Spending a bit of time travelling around WA wheatbelt checking out the wildflowers.
We have stayed overnight at this spot before but today we were only passing through. Wasn't sure when the name refered to until I found it. I thought it may have something to do with the boys in blue.Wink

Stopped by here for a pit stop and cache find.
The container was found after a short search around the area and spotting something that just didn’t fit with its surroundings.

Joined in on the fun heading out into the Wheatbelt for some camping with caching friends.
Left early Saturday morning and managed to get up the hill and well on the road by the time the sun came up.
The goal for the first day was to pick up a couple of new LGA’s and meet up at Baladjie Rock to set up camp and grab the new cache there.
Sunday started a lot slower and after packing everything stopped once for a cache while getting home in time to spend the afternoon with the kids.
Fantastic couple of days away had me walking in the door with 27 finds, 16 adventure labs and 0 DNF’s.

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.

It's great to be able to travel through WA, NT and SA and see so many quaint little country towns.
As we meander home to WA from GeoVenture 2020 (in 2021), Millicent, we stopped to put a smiley here.
It's wonderful to explore WA and SA through the eyes of a Geocacher,
especially when it takes us to such interesting places.
A quaint old pub, would have been awesome In it’s day Smile
Thanks for sharing this interesting historical town site.

Out and about today on a journey through the Wheatbelt caching our way through Merredin, Kulin, Lake Grace, Dumbleyung and many a back road in between.

We really enjoy caching along the backroads and roads less travelled seeing the places that locals have chosen to share with us.

Thanks to the many COs caches we found, we had an awesome day out.

Came up to grab a few bits and pieces from Geotrakka as she cleans out an old family warehouse. Reticulation parts always come in handy when you are on acreage. Geotrakka thought we should go for a quick drive to see all the wild flowers and grab a few caches along the way. I like the play on words relating to the cacheTFTC

Made good use of a visit from Neva2old while Im home in Merredin. Took her out to Burra to have a look at wildflowers and of course to grab some caches.
How big is the prickly pear !! Cool camo here - Thanks Barrikon for the effort you put in. TFTC
