Coolest ammo box find
 
14-Apr-23
With Mr dimor having a couple of days off I thought a little road trip to grab some caches to get a tally of 100 for the month, sadly still many more finds to go.
Never been down this way before so definitely an adventure for us, and with Mr dimor being a locomotive engineer (train driver) he enjoyed the area.
Thought we’d be here for ages find this one but I glance it as soon as I was close enough, need Mr dimor’s muscles to open and close the cache.

Awarding a fav point for bringing us out here

Enjoying a bicycle round trip from Nannup, this being the turnaround point. It took me 4 hours which included 5 caches, getting lost once and a few rest stops to enjoy the surrounds. Highly recommended. TFTC.

Everything all good here. Nice to find a ten year old cache

Day two of my last road trip for 2017 with cravo10.

We started a bit later today, with a sleep in til 7am, we collected the few remaining caches around town before leaving town and heading towards Deanmill, Donnelly River, Nannup, Dunsborough, Busselton, Bunbury and finally back home to Perth.

We had a huge day collecting forty plus caches, even with a short detour to dunsbrough for work.

Really enjoyed finding some more of the Munda Biddi epic geocaches from their 2013 ride.

A great days caching. Thanks to the local COs for their hides over the last couple of days. We look forward to finding more caches on our next planned visits to the south west. Thanks

Quick find whilst out on a caching run with my mom ooh yeh / taking my Balinese partner out on his first Aussie caching day. We got into a bit of a mishap getting moms jeep bogged on the way out.....would have been a funny sight seeing Wayan and I pushing the car! Tftc Smile
 
12-Nov-16
Planned a big trip down south with redlipsandunicorns to find a pile of caches but it didn't go to plan and we didn't get many at all mainly due to some cycling event that was on. Nice quick find of the cache but it took a lot longer to push the car after getting it bogged lol....TFTC Oznaturist

Read the sign warning people to NOT walk on the bridge a bit too late. Found the cache no problem. Thanks Oznaturist
 
28-Oct-16
I had been planning to complete the Munda Biddi Trail from end to end for some months now and the time had finally arrived for the adventure Big Grin. I had thirteen days of mountain biking to get back to Perth from Albany and was able to collect a few geocaches along the way Smile.

A HUGE thanks to Oznaturist for placing this cache here, it certainly helped break my trip up and gave me some respite from my seat [^].

Oznaturist - jinta29 found your cache Cambrey Confest on 28/10/2016, 12:34 PM. This is my find #5968 and find #5 today. I was able to add my name to the log book and I replaced the container as found!

Camped at the pool nearby.. WHat a great spot. Had a couple of possums visit us, one we lay in the swag and watch him feed on the tree sap, then kept on waking up as the Kangaroos and wallaby's hopped past our camp towards the water for a drink.... Ya just gotta love camping in the bush.. Fantatstic ... TFTH
 
26-Oct-12
I love it when a rogain is somewhere other than Wandering, so Nannup was a must do... and ofcourse I wasn't going to let the opportunity to add a few more smilies to map go past.

Made the dash into this one on the way to the rogain, though the sun was setting so didn't get the chance to have a good look round, what a shame will have to come back!

Found with Kool Running. Took the new Cruze down a gravel road for 1.5k'ms to be stopped by a fallen tree. Kool running was in the groove, so we walked and jogged the remaining distance to claim the prize. Good exercise and training for the day. Will come past another day when on bikes doing the Mundabiddi Trail.

3rd and last cache for the afternoon in the Nannup area. No nudists in sight much to my kids relief. The Cambray Road was blocked heading north to Baker Road so we had to do a U-Turn to get out. Realised once on Baker Road that we could have taken the other road that heads north at the road block (forgotten the name now) as it joins Baker Road. Looks like there is iron in the rock around this cache site.
 
24-Dec-10
Whilst searching out some nearby caches, I had to come find this one. A nice little forest campsite I've used in the past. SL, little un took toy horse, left golf ball TFTC.
 
11-Oct-10
Another nice detour on our way back home from Pemberton. There was no one there, and we drove right up. A quick find by geoboy. Had a brief look around, but didn't see the pool that was mentioned - maybe due to our dry winter?! Pleased to see Volcayno and Beauges were last to visit! TFTC.

01-Mar-10
We could here the train whistles blowing and the workmen calling out, mmm... and nudists playing volley ball? I'm not sure about that one.

A good old fashioned Ammo Can cache, with good clean swaps, in an interesting, historic location. Left sunflower door knocker and took nothing.

Thanx for the cache Oznaturist.
 
26-Feb-10
Lunch spot on our way down South. The place was bare, ha ha made a mental note that this would make a good albeit hot campsite. Not much water in the pool. TFTH

Havn't been to the cache as yet but will be going shortly. The ConFest was actually held in 1978 cos I was there! (yes I used to be a Hippy) also went the following year to Nanga. Looking forward to seeing the Cambray site after these years. Thanks for the cache!

We were cycling a part of the just new opened Munda Biddi Cycling Trail, from Nannup to Jarrahwood, which is really beautiful! On the way we made a short stop at the Cambrey Siding to get this cache.

An interesting cache. I agree that it is 2WD all the way in (I was in one) but I'd hate to try to get out just after rain. There is a final slope down to the site which is deeply rutted and very steep. If there has been substantial rain it would be hard to get up it. The cache was pretty obvious from "behind" but irretrievable but not so obvious from the road. An ejoyable cache. TFTC
 
31-May-08
Found @ 1:00:52 PM (Cachemate time)

Found while touring with our friends Janet & Ray, but we didn't come in by the regular route - we approached via quite a number of 4WD tracks.

After a lovely light lunch at the Cider Factory in Donnybrook and feeling a little weary we decided it was time to go for a drive. So over to Nannup we headed, came across Cambray Sheep Cheese and did some tasting (YUM!)and shopping before heading down the bumpy but 2wd accessible road. We didn't find the pool but we found the cache very easily.

An easy find.
Looks like a nice place to camp.
Sorry we didnt get naked though Smile

the cache was a bit empty so we took nothing and left a couple of coke bottle cap magnets and a card.
The track in was a little rough in our lowered Commodore Smile
I think I should take the 4wd on these adventures.
