WeSt onYa Traditional Cache

Cache is hidden in the small gold mining and sheep farming town of Westonia. 

Town is very well presented. The buildings in the town are restored to a high standard to show a old world charm. The cahes is hidden in a display of old houses. Westonia is located just over four hours' drive east of Perth in Western Australia, where the Wheatbelt meets the Goldfields. The town owes its origin to gold mining, although it now relies on wheat and sheep farming.  In 1915 Westonia had two mines in operation and by 1917 there was a population in excess of 2000. This quickly diminished when mining operations ceased in 1948. The mine has since reopened in 2009.
