Blue Wren Stoneville, Western Australia, Australia
By Gekko 1 on 21-Apr-07. Waypoint GC12ANW

Stopped with one of the younger Col117 members. I suspect we could have driven very close to GZ, but we didnt. The cache has seen better days but we managed to sign the mouldy log. Thanks.

Not signable

TFTC found Sunday afternoon while visiting grandparents

I’ve had this cache on my watch list fir a while, saw that it had some recent finds. So I thought I would add my name to the damp log tftc

A quick find after reading the hint.
We accessed the cache from Stoneville Road.
TFTC Gekko 1 this is find #13734 for us.

Stopped off on our way home to grab this one, found easily if you enter off stoneville road, not on anyone's property, this is a reserve, found as described, TFTC

Tftc

Easy find once on the right path. TFTC.

Easy find once we checked out the description.
TFTC.

the listed coordinates are well inside someones property. the surrounding fencing looks quite new. so maybe it needs to be checked.

The listed coordinates are inside private property. Can the CO please check

DNF because gps took us into people’s Driveways...

And I was looking after Blue Wren for Gekko 1 while they were living over east. The original cache was at the stump I think but i moved it 3 metres so cachers wouldn't be seen so easily from the house nearby. There was virtually nothing left of the old cache when I took it over unofficially. Cheers Parkacruz, all is good.

Blue Wren was transferred from Gekko 1 to user parkacruz

Coming back from the equestrian centre nearby decided to call in for a few caches. Container here is very wet. There was water inside the bag but still managed to sign the log. TFTC

Great hide thanks

Found with yo_sharpie fun find tftc

Great hide tyfc

Out for a little drive today to pick up the Disney Mountains series in the area, plus grab a few other caches that are on the way or close by This was one on my hit list for today. Parked up just off Stoneville Road - not sure it's 'official' parking but seemed a good place to leave the car From there it was a nice easy walk through the bush to GZ. Based on the cache page I was expecting a tough search but in actual fact I was lucky enough to go straight to it - found in the first place I looked! Always nice when that happens, just doesn't happen very often, lol. Very peaceful area so could sign the log without fear of muggles, and was then soon having a nice stroll back to the car. All good here, no problems at all - TFTC

Found 27/9/18

TFTC Gekko 1. Great hide.

Geohub spotted it just as I read the hint! Tftc

turned our frown upside down.

Damaged by rain, logbook needs replacing

I forgot to go & look for the old logbook. I will go back & collect the bits.

Found it! Was just lying on the ground open, the paper inside was soaked through and previous logs were unreadable.

Found it on a nice sunny morning when I replaced the cache & logbook. TFTC Gekko1.

Back up and running thanks to Astrohiker

If some one can replace it would be greatly appreciated as I now live interstate

Found it second time here. Did not find under grass tree found in a stump with the lid left open. Was so wet I could not write my name in it , so photo evidence it is!

Very wet inside needs maintenance.

Tried both sets of coordinates & expanded search to every grass tree in the vicinity but we came up empty handed today. We did however have a pleasant walk in perfect weather & enjoyed the Black Cocatoos.

TFTC! Had a few spare hours to kill with Cravo10 this morning and wanting to grab the CITO event on Toodyay road to help do our bit for the community so we hatched a plan to grab a bunch of local caches and attend the back half of the rubbish event.

We completed the remaining TbroG caches we had left, with two DNFs, which became one after a second look for the paperbark cache. We managed to bump into Granett and SVKR sat around 8am and left them to their devices as they were planning to complete the whole series.

The series took us a bit longer than planned with some of the caches taking a good dig around to find which consequently pushed us later to attend the CITO event. Managed to get there around 1030, with half an hour to spare, but no cachers in sight. We saw a nice big rubbish pile so we decided to head across to the red hill side where the team Bingara cache was located and cleaned up a bunch of tyres and assorted house hold litter that had been placed there over an extended period and dropped it back with the pile.

Was a good morning out on the trail, thanks

Out on a days caching with barnzy12. Again picked him up from Belmont and away we went.

We were ultimately heading to the scenic view CITO event and made a few stops along the way. The Tbrog series was on the agenda

By the time we arrived to the event at 10.30 no one was around and rubbish was in a large pile. We decided to use take a few bags and picked up rubbish on the way up the hill to the cache simply red. Returning we threw the bags on the pile and headed for home.

Big boy found this one! Nice walk tftc!!

My first geocache and a short walk from home. Great hiding spot.

Nice little piece of bushland in Stoneville...

Fantastic hide and the kids loved looking in the little surprise thanks

Second time back to this cache!
Last time I was here, was around 5 years ago. Love this area

Tricky find this one

A very late log, found with parkacruz and piknik15 but we never logged online which we are now rectifying TFTC

Logged under Mummy & Daddy's name smileyjims but I have my own name now, I found this cache with them and wrote in the log book with them TFTC

Orrsome Family found it without problems, thankfully. I took the rather large and unusual TB. TFTC

Fortunately it wasn't too long before Orrsome Family found the goods. Could have been a LONG search. Spot on coords. Took the very interesting and LARGE TB. TFTC

In a sea of grass trees. Thank goodness familysteiner and i gave ourselves a time limit but found in about 5. Woohoo.

Expected to be here for a long time but BINGO got it nice and quick (about 3 minutes) beautiful location which we didn't even know was here. TFTC

Tftc!

Lots of really itchy stuff around. TFTC

Found ages ago but never logged it.

It took a very long time to find this one(1 hole hour)!! After a bit of a walk to get there and a long search under about 10 or so grass trees we still hadn't found it and as we only have sat mum got out her Phone and turned on the GPS and we found it about 1minute later we found it should not be too hard with GPS:)

Out and about with my kids, we stopped by this little reserve to find this cache... Initially I was worried as there we fire trucks everywhere on arrival! Turns out they were doing a burn off at the other end of the reserve & the cache was quickly found by DangerMouse09

Thanks for showing us this spot Gekko 1... And TFTC [^] Cache was in good condition.

Prescribed burn happening this weekend so cache may be affected

Quick and easy find, thanks guys : )

Tricky to locate with minimal phone signal but good hide.
Nice area tucked away

TFTH. All in good condition and left as found.

Found It! T4TC

First find for Geohounds. Thanks

Our first geocache. Very exciting. Thank you. The geohounds.

Tftc. . Great wee hide. We introduced a juggle to geocaching.... She enjoyed the experience today..... The Geokids were a wee bit apprehensive about the dogs. But in the end we got past them.

Top spot, this. A lovely little reserve, natural but not too wild and overgrown. Took about five minutes to locate the cache since there are quite a few places it could be hiding, (accurate coordinates are a help).

There's a pack of large, excitable dogs in the adjacent property on Stoneville Road. It looked like the fence was just a bit too low to stop them jumping over if they really wanted to, so I had visions of being tossed-about like a rag doll before being eaten. In tomorrow's West Australian: "All they could find of him was a blood-stained GPS and a pair of glasses."

Quick and easy find. TFTC.

Geo-hubby fortunately made a quick find of this one. Thanks Gekko 1

Nice little reserve. Nice little walk through the many grass trees.

TFTC

Difficult to find and interesting location but we found it - yay! A great end to a day of caching!

Nice Spot, driven passed plenty of times but never knew it was there. TFTC

Great spot - nice walk

Found it

Lovely little walk in the bush.. No wrens though, kids too loud! Lol TFTC

Been past this cache million times on walks but now found it.

Found it after 5 min. Great location. TFTC.

Thanks, fantastic little park. Found it on app so co- ords fine. Signed and replaced.

Great day for an arvo walk! TFTC

Tftc

Been past many time. This time I stopped and it was an easy find after a nice short walk TFTC

This was our 1st cache find in a caching run of 7 Finds & 0 DNFs today.
We found it at 12:18 so this now makes our total find count 7604.

What a wonderful place.
Thanks for not placing an eclipse tin or a 200ml Sistema here. For over ten years we have steadily watched the quality of caches get worse and worse. Once upon a time caches seemed to be "regular" sized,and well stocked with goodies for kids to swap. Nowadays it seems like every other cache is small and devoid anything to induce children to enjoy the hunt. It made us feel really good to find this cache in a "special" place.

Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (Around 2 metres.)
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Smiley Badge.
Thanks Gekko 1 for the hunt today.

saw a tawny frog mouth

Getting hot. Found with the Parky Pigs.

Dropped off TravelPuppy2.

Easy one close by

found while out caching at night a good little hide

TFTC

Good hide, nice walk in to get it. Thanks

last one for the evening

great place for a walk

TFTC

A quick find but still managed to get drenched. Pretty little bush walk, thanks Gekko1.

A very pleasant walk down the track to a fairly quick find. Collected the trackable left by Felix the day before and dropped off a trackable I'd collected from Bennet Springs the previous day. TFTC Gekko 1!

Mrs Felix out caching with Spatialriq today.

Hmmm didn't read the cache page before we tried this one But soon found out that we werent going to find the cache that way [xx(]. So once the directions were read we almost managed to make this one a driveby!

Dropped off a TB

Looking forward to meeting other cachers at WA goes BIG in 2013 - GC45X55

TFTC Gekko 1

Initially took the wrong road then found the way in. Even managed to drive within about 15m of the cache. Found after a few minutes of hunting. Tftc.

Wonderful little reserve - didn't know it existed. Thanks for the cache, lucky to find it quickly.

Tftc GPS definately jumping around but found it pretty quickly

After reading the note I decided this one was worth a try. Found right where the GPSr lead me. TTFC

At the request of the CO I went out today to check this cache. The container is still there and in the same position that I found the original back in July when I replaced it with the current one as the original was US. Checked the contents and all is OK.

Been a couple of times to check on this, to change container, and it has either been moved or taken, not where it used to be

Couldn't find it. Was not under the grass tree.

(chwiliwr team catch up log)

Found this cache without problems but it was completely wet except for the log which was only damp in the bottle. We dried everything out and replaced everything in a sistema container.
So the cache container is now a 'small'.

Thanks Gekko 1 for the cache.
