I'm heading back towards Melbourne now and just slowly heading along picking up ad labs ,virtuals and earth cases as you never have any muggle problems with them and also attempting anything else that is close by.This one suited my needs nicely as I was heading for the gold fields to have a quick look around there so we stopped here and headed off to gz.I followed the GP r to gz but of course I searched the wrong location first and then once I was at the right location the cache was a nice quick find and our name has been added to the logbook and all returned as was.Thanks for the cache geotrakka,
A last minute decision to head up to Kal to see the boy, we couldnt help but stop and grab a few on the journey. Many thanks to geotrakka for placing and maintaining On the Road to the Goldfields. I was here on Saturday and this is my find 11573.

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. Thanks for the cache geotrakka
Still on the road heading east after free camping last night. Once I got me little legs up the embankment it was an easy find.TFTC
Caching around Perth and the west coast for a few weeks. TFTC. Great to have a stretch though the flies were thick.
Found it. TFTC geotrakka. Made a quick find here thanks, replaced as found. Great place for a break except for the traffic.
We are on a Bucket List Trek, from Busselton, in the South West corner of Australia, up to Cape York, Australia's most Northern land point, and return.
We are travelling through several iconic tracks, through the Gawler Ranges, the Oodnadatta Track, the Birdsville Track, the Bloomfield Track and the PDR Track to Cape York. Now returning home via Nhulunbuy, Wadeye, down through the middle to Uluru and across the Great Central Road back to WA, a little detour out here before arriving home.
As we meander across this awesome country, we stopped here to enjoy the scenery, check out the history and wonder what life was like here all those years ago.
Thanks to the CO's for adding to our journey as we headed to Cape York and back.

Travelling with iluvtrekking up the WA coast to Darwin, down the Centre and in the Flinders. After spending some time in Peterbough, Minlaton, Moonta,Whyalla and Wudinna we are now headed home.

Up early this morning to grab the local hides before doing the same in Kalgoorlie and beyond. Thanks geotrakka

Full time Nomads since March 2014, in WA to visit family.
Having been in Perth to visit family our stay has come to an end and we are on our way to Broken Hill for the Mundi Mundi Bash. Of course we can't travel all that way without finding a cache or 2 along the way. We stopped and stretched our legs today at your cache.

Out in a wheatbelt trip collecting some of the latest offerings. Love the open country back roads especially during the holidays. Great way to avoid those in a hurry.
Collected a good handful of Geocaches thanks to the COs that place them! TFTC
