You have to go where you shouldn't. There were three caravans and a car parked when I came in. The car and one caravan left shortly after and the other ones were in conversation. I don't think they saw me going off track. I could see were it is from the path which made for a quick sign and replace. TFTC

Quite windy today so the log tried to escape, just got it in time and added my name! Great to see the cliffs and a number of other visitors all happy to be out and say hello.Last night we stayed on one of the many camp sites on the Clifftops of the Bight, ending the day quite late at Maralinga. Quite a long day but great to spend time exploring Koonalda with its historic relics and caves. It is a superb fascinating area I'm pleased to have experienced. Opportunities to visit the clifftops of the bight not passed over as we were going past. Time was against us as we were to be at Maralinga that afternoon. A lot was missed but stopped for the big things too close to want to miss and still made it to our destination, set up and joined the other campers for the evening camp fire. Thanks for your cache!

2485 - Last evening after a nice meal at the Border Village Roadhouse, I headed back to my room to plan out the drive for today, including which caches I would target and which areas I would investigate and sightsee at. This cache looked like it offered both, so it was a definite stop on my way east. When I pulled into the car park here one caravan was just leaving so I had the place to myself, which was perfect timing for a cache like this where I needed to head off the beaten track so to speak. Found in good condition in the obvious hiding spot at 10:55am. Thanks for placing the cache here Freddo the Chocolate Frog and for showing off this part of the beautiful Aussie coastline.

Not only Eyre passed this way... so did a million flies today. I'd imagine Eyre was pretty impressed with the scenery along here.. we certainly were. TFTC Freddo.

WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 15 - Yalata to Eucla via Nulllabor Roadhouse and Koonalda NP. The area along the Bunda cliffs was fantastic and the side trips well worth the extra dust involved. Lots of travelers in the Eucla van park. There was not a great deal of caching but I did a few side trips and saw some amazing places. A pity there is not way to get into some of the bigger caves anymore.This next viewpoint out onto the cliffs was no less inspiring than the other locations. As I walked out to give the earth cache a go, I stopped by this cache to sign my name on the cache in good condition.Thanks for the cache Freddo46736.6 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & PEACE FOR UKRAINE 2022 A#504**Albida**

After leaving the Nullarbor Roadhouse, our next stop will be Madura for one night.The rest areas and along the way are such a highlight of this part of the trip. This was a quick find at GZ, and then we made our way down to the lookout for some more spectacular fuse under bright blue sky. Thanks Freddo Domsky

Making our way home to the SW of WA after attending The Great Leap Forward Mega event in Adelaide. Grabbing caches here and there along the Highway as we go, if there is room for car and van.Last night we camped a few kms east of Nullarbor Roadhouse, we were later joined by two wizzbangers and a truck, and apparently a few other trucks that I didnt hear pull up , didnt hear them leave either and they would have been less than 50m from us, oops I slept well .A nice easy find tho would have preferred it being closer to the boardwalk as hard to be stealthy when having to get to GZ

On the long drive home and so glad we decided to pop down here for a look. Its certainly a dramatic seascape. Cache was obviously placed before the fences were installed. Waited for other people to clear out before hopping through and making the find. TFTC

On the 2nd leg of the long haul east, Norseman to Nullarbor today. Stopped by here to checkt he views although we near got blown off the cliffs in the gales. The muggle man was none to pleased when I then headed towards GZ, so thankfully it was a pain free find. Thanks for the hide here Freddo the Chocolate Frog

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 two travelling from Streaky Bay to Border Village on a 5 day 3,100km adventure. It was very bleak and cold morning 13c bult felt like 5 in Ceduna and the temp did get somewhat better later in the day. Did not have a jumper as i left Perth in a heatwave and arrived to one in SA. .Ended up buying a jumper at Ceduna. Now for a contrast the day before ranged between 36 and 45!!!And there are hundreds of signs saying do not drive tired so geocaching helped with that.The weather did eventually turn out nice for a while and i arrived here and there was no one else around. It was blowing an absolute gale here and was difficult just trying to walk to the lookout. This was a very quick find.Found lots of caches on the trip. Thanks for the cache and making me get out and stretch and to see this amazing place freddo frog - i prefer strawberry freddo frogs rather then chocolate.

Found during three weeks away with e.gregory1 on a trip along WA's Great Central Road and a caching circuit of the WA Goldfields. We travelled North on the Stuart Highway and out to Kings Canyon to Uluru and Kata Tjuta. From there we headed in a south-westerly direction along the Great Central Road with a number of detours along the way, including Surveyor Generals Corner and Empress Spring. Then it was down to Laverton and Leonora before turning South to Menzies and Kalgoorlie. A few days were spent on a circuit back up to Lake Carey and around to Queen Victoria Spring before returning to Kalgoorlie, then out to Coolgardie, Kambalda and Norseman, and heading for home along the Eyre Highway. Today we traveled from Caiguna to Nullabor finding caches along the way. Thanks for the cache Freddo!

Found on another enjoyable trip with FeatherWaite over 3-weeks through South Australia, Northern Territory and Western Australia. This time the plan was to head up to Kings Canyon, across to the WA border via Uluru and Kata-Tjuta, then down the Great Central Road, with a few side-trips along the way before eventually getting to the Goldfields and then home via Queen Victoria Springs and the Eyre Highway.

We had some mixed weather to start, with a few overnight showers initially, but mostly warm and sunny days. The nights were often cold though!

A quick find in a place I’ve been many times before.

Thanks Freddo for the cache.

Half the team had to start heading east for their own medical appointments appointment while the other half stayed with their friends in Geraldton. I'm heading down south and had to pick up a few caches to break up the drive. I'm concentrating mainly on adventure labs, virtual's and earth caches as you don't have to worry about muggles as much but I'm also stopping for any that look like as though they maybe a quick find.

Eyre and Wylie may have passed by here but I was not going too. With a trad and an earh cache for the one park why would I.
I studied the GPSr for some time here but GZ did not change. I then saw something suspicious in the distance and knew that would be the hide. I headed off to GZ for a nice quick find and added our name to the log and returned as was. I was just heading back to the track and I could hear a vehicle coming so my timing was excellent.
Many thanks Freddo the chocolate Frog for the cache and great information.
