TFTC...needs maintenance...but thanks...

Found this cache out in the open and very wet- lid doesn't fit properly. Replaced it in the tree fork..Great place though- thanks.

My thanks to the finders who don't seem capable of hiding caches or closing containers. Reviewer won't let me leave this disabled until November, so it's gone.

Found it thismorning tried writting in log book but it was saturated coz the lid wasnt on properly! Letting it dry out and put lid back on this arvo nice and tight!
Cheers

[:(!] Went for a long weekend (WA Day) caching run to Kalgoorlie and back spending two nights camped at Coolgardie, on our third day we are now heading back to Perth and picking up some caches along the way and this was one of them, parked the geocar as close as possible to GZ and walked the rest of the way, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes.

SL TFTC/TFTH WanderingAus.

Great hide!!

Sneaky sneaky! TFTC WanderingAus.

Found the cache on the ground, I checked the hint and from that placed it where it looked like it belonged and where I got the best GPS reading..

Good find late in the day. TFTH

Here from Canada, doing a bit of caching as we explore Australia....

Quick find

Thanks for the hide WanderingAus!

Many thanks from Peter for this cache on the 13. Australia Trip (2012/2013).
Cheers Peter

TFTC. Found on a caching trip with Cravo10 from Perth to Kalgoorlie, Esperance and everywhere else along the way.

Out on a geocaching getaway with barnzy12. From Perth to Kalgoorlie to Esperance back to Perth in 3 days. Tftc.

Easy find. Thanks for the cache.

Found with wot & Devar.

On the way home. A good opportunity to get off the highway. Quite surprised how many homes had solar panels on the roof in town. Probably should look into it more to help power my numerous gadgets. Thanks for relieving the monotony.

Attached a photo of Mel's headstone - never seen one like this before!

found quickly and replaced so it could not be seen

On a bit of a sales trip around WA and thought while I had an hour to spare I'd find a cache or 2. Too many muggles in town but none out here. An easy find now back to work. TFTC!!

As I was running out of daylight I was going to bypass this cache and just go for the new one nearby but decided that it shouldn't take too long so drove in. It was lucky that I did as the cache might not have survived. I found it just off the road/track and well away from where I assumed it had been hidden. There were a couple of other small things nearby from the graves so I assume it was one of the birds that tried to take it.

I placed it back with a lot more cover over it.

Thanks WanderingAus for the cache.

Found on our great Aussie holiday (from Perth around the coast and back to Perth) thanks for a great cache in interesting spot

We originally went out to the cemetery with not much luck, just finding bits of rubbish and flowers. We went home. We then thought of the places we hadn't yet looked and headed back out there. As we arrived we saw a few muggles cleaning up the place, but we ignored them and soon after found the cache. Much fun, going out to search for more soon !

Ahhhhhhhh holidays!!!!!!! Our 27th find in a new adventure east

No multi again, the war heroes must be rolling in there graves! Easy find though

Found this one on our way out to Kalgoorlie. 2nd Cemetery visit for the day to find a cache. Some council workers were about - probably wondered what we were up to. TFTC.

Very easy find for us as the cache was out in the open, we spotted it from meters away. Log book signed and Cache hidden away again out of sight.

We found it during our 3-weeks holiday in Western Australia.

Left silver charm ty

Took a detour for breakky, tftc

On our way from Perth to the Wave Rock (where we finally could not go because of flodded roads) and then to Kalgoorlie we were spending the night in Merredin. TFTC!

When I got to the cache I realised I had already found this one a year ago, so am logging it now as it seems I have done it twice.!!!! Thanks

An easy find while there were no muggles around. Some did arrive as I was walking back towards the Prado. No swaps, SL. Thanks for the cache.

TQWR

Found with the bro. Cheers

WanderingAus wandered by, taking a very roundabout way to get to Bruce Rock for the annual Back To The Bush Veterans Reunion, and doing some cache maintenance and cache hunting on the way.

This one was in good shape, survived another winter and looking good for another year or two.

While I was there I grabbed Space Gate Geocoin (ref = TB38JA7) and visited a bunch of travellers just to give them some air.

Happy caching,
Keith

Nice quick find, first for the day. SL Left Space Gate Geocoin TN TFTC

Grabbed this one on our way to Bruce Rock. I told the geowife this would be the last one for the day, I was wrong (again).

Looked in the wrong tree due to gps failing but then found it after a few minutes. Great spot.

Try it at night, adds another element to it.

Another big storm approaching but found it just before rain reached us

No one around except the residence, chilly wind.
TFTH

We found it. We had to wait for a few muggles to finish paying their respects the we were into it. TNLN. Thanx for the cache.

Not where we thought it would be - but not hard to find. Found by middle geokid.TFTH

Found at one of my fave locations! Great to stop for a break here when fatigue is setting in! Who would have thought Merredin could be so pretty and peaceful?! Thanks!

Funeral was on at the time when we arrived. To respect the person that died and the people at the funeral we waited until it was over to find the cache.
TNLN, TFTC!

Our 2nd cache along our Kal to Perth drive.

Brad was looking for this cache and found it be accident while Kirra was waiting in the car with sleeping baby Jayden.
We took a Kangaroo pathtag [2784218] and left some money coins.

Thanks for the cache.

Brad, Kirra & baby Jayden.

Perth 10.9. This marked the spot I had to change GPX files on the GPS, so I spent 15mins playing with the computer. After that the cache was a simple find in another cemetery. Thanks.

Our second find - a nice easy one to find on a sunny afternoon.

I wouldn't say it was dead easy, but we found it!

We were dying to go there, thanks WanAus

Found this in Company of Devildog3 on our 2800KM trip 4 day bender geocaching TFTC and Devildog and his blooming bee just wouldnt F*&^%ing leave us alone

GOOD FIND. VERY COLOURFUL.

Found with the Reluctant Companion on our trip to Albany for the Ulysses AGM Event. Easy find on a very hot afternoon. TNLN. TFTC.

This was a hard one to get!! but getting a second to find was well worth it.
On hols from Belfast NI
TNLN SL
Thanks

Pulled up and the GPSr pointed straight ahead 130m so I thought I might pace it out to GZ leaving the GPSr in the car, not good. Had to walk the 130m back to the car to get the unit and read the description so I knew for sure what I was looking for.

Seems I only missed finding it the first time by millimetres, just didn't see it.
