Logs
Found after 2 years but no log remains, only a shattered container with an old swap. I have supplied a photo, please feel free to remove this find if it is invalid due to not signing the log.
Catching up on a few late logs after the event here yesterday noticing that these were yet to be logged. Have back dated to original find date.
Headed out for a days caching behind the suburbs of Kelmscott and Armadale to cleanup a bunch of caches that have been on the map for far too long.
Good morning out with a mixture of walking and using the push bike on the flatter surfaces that are around.
Thanks to the COs for their caches in these parts, a great morning, albeit a bit cold. Thanks

This is effectively a private park for those with their houses backing onto the area. Lucky guys. We had to puff and pant our way to the location before getting to enjoy the vista. What a place. It would be great to see this improved and turned into a place to watch the skyshow/fireworks from. Grassed and reticulated with BBQs. I could see my family enjoying the view on a summers night. It just needs a better access for traffic.
Now...time to head home...what a slog that is...all uphill.
Cache in good condition and well placed.

Hi there nealerocks - today was planned day for a walk along this string of caches, with several others thrown in. This cache was one of the 'others' and while GZ was easy to find, the container and log was missing. I have left a new container and log - SL, but this cache has a needs maintenance flag on it so will be archived at some time if the CO does not remove it. Thanks to nealerocks for this cache - our find #5899.
After what had felt like a light cache finding month last month I decided to head out for a morning of caching trying to rack up some numbers . I headed out to Mundijong to grab some new caches and then headed north towards the hills to target some other areas that I had my eye on [^]. I had a fantastic time caching today and a big thanks to all the CO's for the effort in placing the caches!
nealerocks - jinta29 found your cache Wungong 1. This is my find #6036 and find #9 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

I was surprised to see how many cachers skip this one, but mind you it was a bit of a cardio to get back up on track but well worth it. Thank you for bringing us to enjoy the scenery, and kangaroos definitely enjoyed the view to the visitors.
Eliktrisiti and I decided that a little bit of rain wasn't going to deter us from tackling some of the bush caches in the Armadale hills area before the weather got too warm. Others thought we were crazy, but we donned our wet weather gear and ended up having a really great day of it. Found this one on the second big walk we had planned for the day, and even though it was a bit of a trek down the hill from the others we were doing, it seemed silly not to continue on down to this one. Some kangaroos watched us warily as we approached gz, located the cache and did our signing duties. When we looked up again, they had vanished completely. Then came the long trek back up that hill, with just a few stops to "admire the scenery". Thanks for the exercise and the smileys nealerocks
Found Wungong 1. Had a hard time finding access to this cache. GPS said go to Kundyl Ct, but there was no access from there – all private properties. Went around and around until set GPS to locate City View cache. Now the GPS said go to Balgor Ct. Thank God, there was access there – a window of no private property. I went from that window to Wungong 1. TNLN SL TFTH nealerocks.
Teamed up with Ross1957 today to tackle the nearby series. The weather was just perfect for a bush walk , beautiful area, great track. We should come here at dusk or dawn, am sure there well be dozens and dozens of roos grazing on the hill.

Found with Me&B while doing the nearby series.
Hell of a walk back up the hill.

After completing the Stairway to Heaven multi with iluvtrekking, the two geo-men went on to tackle the other caches in the reserve. They loved the walk through the reserve and the varying challenges with with terrain. Rewarded with a quick find at gz. Thanks nealerocks
Continuing along the track with richlink we saw some fantastic views, climbed the stairway to heaven, descended into the depths of the Wungong, marvelled at the wildlife and found some fantastic caches. Perfect! Thanks for the cache nealerocks.
I was out with Luna Maya doing The dogs are us series and we couldnt leave this cache behind. We noticed we had a bit of a downhill walk (about 350 metres i think) to get to the cache but once at GZ the cache was found quickly. We decided to stop for a drink and snack break here then it was time to go back up the hill. That hill didnt seem to bad going down but we were sure huffing and puffing going up lol.....Great views at this cache TFTC nealerocks
It was enjoyable to go for a " 6K walk" with Mrs Ooh Yeh to find a nearby series. The rain held off, the sun shined & we were quite pleased with ourselves to find all of the caches . We even had a few quick easy finds and completed the series in a timely manner
So we made a detour to find this cache Slip sliding downhill on the gravel track . SL. Then uphill to return to the series Oh dear - what a hill. There was a LOT of complaining, and the question of " why ". All good in the end - TFTC and the pretty scenery Nealerocks

I was in the area today to do the 'Stairway to Heaven' multi and decided to some other caches as well.
Made a quick find after walking down the hill ... I attracted the attention of a dog at one of the residences further down the hill. SL. Thanks for the hide nealerocks ... enjoyed my walk around this area and will be back for Wungong 2 one day.

With some unexpected kid free time today, I set my sight's on the new caches at Churchman Brook... Of course this one was too close to just walk on by, so I made the diversion to this cache along the way All downhill to get there and a quick find too... After enjoying the outlook for a few minutes, it was time to get the heart rate pumping and continue on my way
TFTC nealerocks [^] This is a lovely spot for a cache & it is a shame it has had little visits to it! Perhaps now with the new caches in the area you should see some new logs rolling in!

After my previous DNF I zeroed in on GZ from some distance away. Took the TB.
Thanks nealerocks.
Thanks nealerocks.
It was a bit warmer today than we first thought but non the less we enjoyed to walk saw lots of Kangaroos along this section. We can see the white picket fence close by here and we have always wonders how you got near it.Picked up GPS travel bug and dropped off KWI going west one.We were not quite sure if this cache was heading in the right direction but its a fairly new cache so its sure to be picked up soon.

Joint FTF with sparklyamy and my first cache for 2013. This was published as I was sitting by a pool 300m away but with kids in tow and only bathers and thongs a 3.5 terrain wasn't doable. Came back later that night and with some local knowledge managed to avoid much of the hike and had the cache in hand quickly. sparklyamy dropped of a new travel bug to begin its journey. TFTC!
My first FTF jointly with gleakk. Local knowledge helped us find this easily. The location is obvious once you are at GZ. TFTC nealerocks
