Found on the way into Denham. The container broke in my hands so replaced it and all good to go.

Two caches for the price of one here...then we were off to the beach.

The Big Western Australia trip in 2018. Day 31. After a night at the very remote Red Bluff, I turned south again. Now weather is a problem, the road into Steep Point is closed, so I headed to Denham and Francis Peron NP on Shark Bay.
This one was missing few years ago, but has now been replaced, and is definitely a different container (black) than the GC cache.
Thanks

Didn’t find a black one but did find an Actizyme one named dog fence cache. Swapped toy for minion!
We emailed the CO to ask if they intended to replace or archive this cache, predictably we we didn't get a response.
As this is an interesting location worthy of a cache we decided to replace the container and log. The cache is now a large plastic fish oil container painted black and has been place within 4m of the listed coordinates.
We have left a little gift for the next finder, but beware of the guardian.

WA2016 caching and Dive trip. Day 19. I was not able to locate the cache here.

A this cache hasn't been found for so long it may need to be retrieved and relocated to a more accessible spot....either that or up the difficulty rating somewhat.
Like previous cachers we had no luck with this one either. We spent quite a while poking around inside the bushes with long sticks but no luck I'm afraid. I can't imagine the cache has been muggled because it is not in a likely 'muggle' area but I reckon the CO should have a go at retrieving the cache and moving it to a more accessible spot in the bushes.
I walked past THAT post about four times to and from the geomobile and it never failed to make me JUMP....even though I was expecting the surprise
Thanks anyway briana and keith for a cache in a great spot. We would not have stopped otherwise and enjoyed the 'surprise'.

As previous cachers experience, unfortunately DNF this cache. Spectacular area here with magnificient scenery.

Since this one has only had one find and that was nearly 2 years ago we spent the obligatory 15 minutes on it. It might be there but the bushes have probably grown a fair bit in that time and it is very difficult to get in under them easily, although we did try . The only thing we found that looked slightly hopeful was a cordial bottle with some rolled up paper in it. The paper wouldn't come out and from what we could see it had no writing on it only black mould. Such a pity this has gone as most people driving past wouldn't realise what happens when you approach the grid. Thanks anyway.
Nice easy cache. Bit exposed. Interesting to hear the "dogs" barking
