With the Motobike 3 Weeks Holliday in Western Australia. We have make the Holland-Track. Good found by the Coordinates. TFTC Pitfeder Switzerland
Holidaying in the south west for a couple of weeks & we made a small detour to Fernhook Falls whilst heading to Walpole for a few days... We took the short walk down to GZ where Jase made a quick find of the replacement sistema before spending some time exploring the area - There was only a trickle in the stream but the area was still well worth the visit TFTC teamdundat
We stayed in the campground overnight and did the boardwalk this morning. Sad to see the ammo can gone, but found a square plastic sistema replacement in good condition. Took some great photos of a kookaburra asleep in a tree just next to us.

Wow, found this cache it seemed like in the middle of no where. This is no phone reception in the area, so good luck
No reception so we had nothing but some approx coordinates on the phone. Took a look under the platform from two different angles but came up empty, so will have to try again on a future trip- tftc
Found it during an adventurous drive. There is a lot of water so the waterfall is very big.
Unfortunately couldnt load all the information, had a quick look around but had to move on with no luck. Hopefully I can make it back and try again another day .
Replacement cache left in place. Boardwalk has had some stabilising repairs so assume cache went awol at that time. Have been camping here during the school holidays- one of my favourite least populated parks in WA!
Looks like recent repairs due to a tree crushing the boardwalk may have resulted in the cache being removed during the repairs. We could find no sign of the box.
Definetly nothing here. 3 sets of eyes and 3 nav devices, and collectively over an hour looking. No luck for us. After departing and reading previous logs I would suggest a maintenance check is required. Travelling with Lidds and Miss Goosey.
Quick find. Found ziplock bag and improvised in signing. Could do with a replacement container. Thanks for the hide.
Great spot but someone took the box! Only a bunch of items left wet in the weather great location though
Found contents of the cache laid out on the viewing deck with lots of rubbish and food scraps around them. Didn’t have a spare container on me so I’ve put everything together under the deck. Also our 100th find ! Thanks for bringing us here is an amazing little spot!
A beautiful location, can't wait to come back when the water is 'falling', TFTC!!!
Found with mandate7 and friends on a day exploring the forests around Walpole and enjoying the long weekend at rest point guess it would be spectacular in the winter time thanks for the cache
Found with bigSalmon1 whilst exploring Walpole forrests. Pity we have had such a dry season maybe I’ll return in winter and see it in full spender TFTC
Today we went to the Giant Tingle Tree and mt Frankland NP. The road was bumpy and the dust penetrated all the cracks of the car. Also we were able to find some geocaches and thank all owners for laying out the cans.
Tijdens een daguitstap naar de mooiste plaatsen rond Walpole deze cache gezocht en gevonden.

Quick stroll down to the waterless falls ... must be the affects of climate change .. tftc
Great spot. Water running beautifully. Toy swapped. Ken still there keeping an eye on things
What a brilliant camping spot. We will be back for this one.
So quiet today.
Since it was so nice we dropped the two trackable items we had with us into the cache.
That are being cared for by the freakiest Ken... Or is it Barbie doll.
See photo....

#240 Visiting from Sydney and doing all the tourist destinations. What a superb location, hasn't been much rain but this place would rock after heavy rains. TFTC teamdundat
After the 2 ftfs down the road, we headed off to this one . Found quickly, falls not flowing that much, but was still nice. Tftc. sl tnln.
I'm on holiday in Australia together with KirstinNL. After visiting the Tree Top Walk and Mount Frankland, we came up here to see the falls.
Plenty of water going through today as it has been raining very much the last 10 days. I hope Rowells pool looks better in the summer, because today it did not look very appealing to swim in. Oranje-like water coming from the falls creating lots of foam (or whatever it actually is...).
Even though, a place site to have been. There was nobody else on site, so we did not have to be very stealthy. Found the cache without any problems.
Around 15:23 we found the cache.
teamdundat, thank you for creating, placing and maintaining this cache!

Trying out camping for the first family time at fernhook falls. Discovered there was a geocache nearby. Found it after a cool swim in rowley pool to rescue a netball. Had a travel bug which we took to move on...
Thanks for the cache
Thanks for the cache
Thanks for taking us to this amazing place teamdundat! Taking a bit of a detour from Walpole to home stopping to find a few of the more out of the way caches on the way back home. What a magical spot we are planing our return visit. Favourite point and photo added.
Down in Denmark and surrounds for the weekend with Rach 2
Today is our homeward journey so a quick stop off here for my first cache of the morning. We had to do a bit of road clearing so we could get through, looks like a tree recently fell down up the road a bit.
We weren't game to put our hand and grab the cache as Rach saw something move at GZ so she kindly grabbed it from behind after stomping on the boardwalk to hopefully scare off any nasty creatures
My poor 2wd didn't like the corrugations, should have had the 200 series instead
TFTC and brining us here, the campgrounds look nice

What a great location. Not on the plan to go here today, but the sign pointed us in the direction. Had lunch, had a walk, about to have a swim but decided not too as we didn’t have bathers. Then went looking for the cache, great location!

Today we left Denmark, sadly, and drove on to Pemberton.
We did some caching along the way, and this was one we found.
After walking down to the deck, an easy find was made here. Liked the hide, the container and the location, so a very nice find, thank you.
Lasrt one for the day.

On an extended trip and currently in the southwest of WA. Loving it here – great individual trees, great forests, great cliffs and beaches and a cache or two to find as a bonus. What a great waterfall. Plenty of foam around this morning. TFTC teamdundat.
Beautiful spot and a lot of water in the river at the moment. The falls were quite impressive. The cache was a quick find once the boardwalk was clear of visitors. Thank you for the cache teamdundat.
Found it while spending the holidays camping on the south coast.
Peaceful spot.

Good one TFTC gps a little inaccurate but it was a fun and reasonably quick search.
We had a hunch we'd been at this spot before, a few years back...but The Forest is so magical one can return here and never get enough with caches making our ego's happy
Nice one and easy to find. TFTC !
Nice one and easy to find. TFTC !
After a night in Walpole it was time to head into the forests, check out some waterfalls, catch a Tram and climb a big tree, of course, grabbing some caches on the way. TFTC.
Wow! The geokid and I set up camp in one of the huts for the last two nights! Camping luxury! What a delightful place! Last nights rain was divine on the tin roof!! Thank you so much for leading us here- it was the geocache that had us explore this spot! We will be back here for sure
pug002 found it on our trip south geocaching. TFTC teamdunat, yes thanks for taking us here seeing so many places we would never have seen if we had not been geocaching.
Waterfall not flowing today but it was a lovely circuit walk. Thanks for bringing us out here! TFTH TNLN
A quick and easy find, complete with a family of huntsman spiders keeping guard! TFTC!!!
On my way to a event at crystal springs decided to come have a look at the falls and of course grab the cache. Beautiful spit thanks for placing a cache here
A weekend away with the lads had been planned and a big day caching yesterday with a 18km hike.
Kyzabra, Jinta29, Granett, Krabiboy and I were heading home and decided to grab a few on the way home.
We parked at the wrong spot and made hard work getting in but found easily.

On a caching trip from Margaret river to Albany. Picked up many along the way and saw some great sights TFTH TFTC
A few months back, Granett mentioned that he wanted to try and tackle Top On Hop again. That was all the invitation we needed, and the plans started from there.
jinta29 and I headed down a day early to make the most of the trip and collect lots of smilies and old caches. This one was on the list.
Jinta29 made a quick grab here after we clambered our way across the rocks of the falls.

After an epic weekend away with a successful attempt at Mt Hopkins 'Top on Hop' ([url=http://coord.info/GC5GDXZ]GC5GDXZ[/url]) in the company of AlliedOz, jinta29, KrabiBoy and Kyzabra it was time to head back to our 'normal' lives. But as geoaddicts should know, the chance for a few group finds along the way was always a distinct possibility. And fellow local 'addict' loudy16, was along as well to provide guidance where needed.
We all managed to park in the wrong spot here and took the treacherous route to GZ where loudy16 was waiting. Nevertheless log signed and onto the next one.
teamdundat I found your cache at 6:58am, this was the 1st of 16 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 2502. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

We stayed here over night and found this big cache before cooking. TFTC The Shredder and Skyryser
What a glorious spot. WA is certainly full of wonder. An easy find thanks to the hint. Cache in good condition. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache. SL
Found it! Stayed in the bush camp here! Great place and beautiful falls in winter. Left Buzzy the TB.
Travelling from Walpole to Margaret River today and diverted up this way from Mt Frankland to get a few old caches. Found easily enough and the falls were running well. Thanks for the cache.
Found this geocache whilst camping at Fernhook Falls. Lovely spot - TFTC teamdundat.
