I ventured up to this end of the world to grab a few GA moveable caches and found this cache whilst in the area. TFTC.
Last cache for me in the reserve today. Quick find at GZ.
Didnt leave my pen for another one.

This will be my last cache in Perth for a while as my holiday here is at an end, but thanks to all the cachers that have taken me to places that I wouldn't have seen without their caches. Left a Turtle TB and took the Irish geocoin but didn't see any other trackables. TFTC.
Great idea swapable pens. Good chance of there being a writing stick in the cache.
Easy find as expected. Beginner caches are just my style. Sadly between here and finding your next cache I lost my new birthday space pen. Quite ironic, given the name of the cache. Thanks for the cache kambrook.
The Banksias were a picture here. Honeysucker (Dimboola Cacher) would be sucking every bush here.
Thanks to kambrook and clear skies from TeamAstro.
Ended up being an easy find but for some reason I insisted in looking under all the spiky, scratchy bushes first. Left a Melbourne Tigers Basketball pen that has a roll out banner. Thanks for this themed cache Kambrook.
Should have looked where I thought it was instead of following GPS, would have been a quicker find. TFTC
Geo-dog's 1st park today. Been to caches nearby but missed this one. Nice and easy. Saw some kangaroos. TFTC TNLN
My oldest daughter, HTech, was having a tea party for her 8th birthday, so the rest of us were kicked out of the house. What better way to spend the afternoon than picking up a string of 3 caches in the urban bush. This one was soon found by ETech (while LTech watched on from the pram back on the track). TNLN TFTC
Found with bsurin65, duncdonut73 and Princess Fiona and bumped into some newbies on their first hunt. TFTC
Nice little spot. Found with bsurin65, kellyxley and Princess Fiona and bumped into some newbies on their first hunt. I'm not sure if all pens are mightier than swords, particular when they run out of ink. TFTC!
Found with duncdonut73, kellyxley and Fiona. We turned up at the GZ to find several new geocachers also searching for the cache, so it didn't take long for someone to find it. TFTC!
Pleased to find this cache in better condition than the nearby GCA caches. Can't believe how lucky we were not to lose it to the fire. The cache container is melted but still in 1 piece! Perfect condition and no water in the cache. TFTC Kambrook
Located on a bike ride this morning. Did a pen swap (UWA Club pen for a Foster Post Office pen). Also took the GC which I plan to deposit in the South West next week.
12th cache for today. Found cache OK and in good condition.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
Lovely walk.Be great in the springtime when the flowers are out.Thanks for the cache.
This was an easy find today after us thinking the cache may have been burnt. We were kinda right it had been licked by the fire, but all still there. SL TNLN TFTC
Thought it would be easy but didn't search too long as GZ is right on the edge of a very recent fire. So may have been cooked!! But, will keep a watch on it and come back another day.
Took Mrs Moneybox to explain to me why the cache was full of one particular item. I think this one could do with parking coordinates thrown in so us geocachers don't get arrested trying to get to the cache and back to the car. It's hard to sneak about in the dead of night when you have to use a torch. At least this time I was quick with the camera so if anybody askes "she did it". TFTC
Perth 10.13. The first of five caches along this track. Fantastic bush. Thanks.

I've played golf on the course next door
and didn't even know this great reserve was here.
Really enjoyed my walk around it today with the dog.
Took a pen that didn't work and left a pen that did !!
Cheers for the hunt

Great area of bush not far from a friends house. A couple of young fellas hooning around the tracks on a motorbike made it more of a challenge although you could hear them coming from miles away.
Left a pen from NZ

The 2nd GC cache we did tonight whilst out grabbing some GCA caches with my normal night caching sidekick the_robots. A good walk through the bush at night with the sound of engines and screeching tyres in the distance.
A nice easy find though you would think that most of the pens would work DOH

Found this one quick and easy, on a night journey with Shael6636. We were pleased to find so many Geocaching Australia caches in this park as well (this one has more pens than the others though! ). Thanks for bringing us here! TFTC.
Nice and easy find by Mr Bushies2. As we walked back to our trooper, there were two cute dogs trotting in front of us, the little dog was barking at us and the bigger dog was wary but both wagged their tails which was pretty safe for us! The little dog came up to us and sniffed our hands before trotting away to their home. Thanks Kambrook for another cache nearby.
had a look around for awhile for this one but couldn't find it will have try again soon
Very enjoyable stroll before finding the 2 caches in same bushland, took geocoin. Thanks for bringing me here
Loved this cache, such a great idea. Third cache for the day, nice walk through this urban bushland. Thanks for the cache kambrook. TFTC. TNLNSL

Accompanied with Varuna for the afternoon.... We come from another side - ooops but saw Kangaroo on the golf area also beauty flowers... We enjoyed walk along to the cache. No swap. SL. Thanks kambrook for organising the cache and hunt.
We enjoyed wandering to get to the cache. Found it quickly. Thanks for great location and cache.
A warm sunny day so use a stick to flick things away. You just never know . Very nice area TFTH
enjoyable walk to cache, quickly found and signed log then back to the motor with the barking dogs at the nearby fences!
TNLNSL cheers 4 da cache kambrook!

Found this and 3 Geocaching Australia caches at same time. Couldn't find a pen so i didn't sign log(just kidding). Lots of flowers out. Nice spot, thanks for the cache.

Took a while to find this one my navigator tried to take me through someone's house ahhh!!! had to navigate a couple of turns myself to find this one... Maybe this is why its called "Mightier than the sword" either that or my naviator is set to find the shortest route (through someones house) lol
Took a while to find once in the bush.
Found it easily when I started to try and think of the best place I would hide something!!!
Jordan (3yrs) was very excited to find cache and choose himself a new pen unfortunately I took a pen from Burswood Resort to leave in the cache but I think it may of been lost somewhere near the big ants nest during the sudden ants nest attach on my 3yr old.
My 3yr old learnt all about ants when he decided to take a much needed rest and sit down right onto of a big ants nest.
Ants from head to toe!!!

2nd find for the day. With all the rain we had recently it's nice to know that plastic containers are waterproof.
