Nice ride..easier anti clockwise. Thanks!

Great find! Good weather too as the track was dry

Thanks:)

TFTC Track wet in patches

Track was pretty mushy, but we were able to walk/paddle around the worst bits. Cache found without trouble in good condition. TFTC

Still very wet but cache is nice and dry

No luck, nearly had to swim to get there . Will try again when less wet.

Pat and I discovered someone living in a tent not too far from the cache so we backtracked out of there and approached the cache from another track. I was looking about 8-10 metres away when I heard Pat call out that he had found it, signed the log and moved on. Thank you WanderingAus.

A wet walk to the cache along the tracks. We found a home that someone lives in along one of the tracks so back out of that location.Cache was about 6m out but not hard to find.

Thank you very much, easy enough but still exciting to find

Found, thanks!

IM LITERALLY LIKE THAT!!!

Can't find it

Thanks! A bit of searching in the scrub, and a few scratches

TFTC

After attending the Christmas event, collecting smileys along Canning River before heading back to North Perth with my Geobike.Thanks WanderingAus for hiding and maintenance.

Thanks for the cache. Lovely spot for a family walk.

Hellova adventure getting here as most of the area is water logged. Had to access the area via some small trails. So exciting!

Easy to find and great fun.

A bit of a squishy squelchy walk in parts to get there but found the well stocked cache in good condition (and dry). Nice to find a 16yo cache! TFTC, WanderingAus, and for keeping it alive!

Happy to say we found it this time. Last time we couldn't access GZ due to flooding but it wasn't as bad today, so we gave it another try. All in perfect order. Thanks very much for hiding and maintaining this cache.

Took advantage of this lovely winter's day to collect some of these riverside caches. A quick find here at GZ. Tftc

Enjoyed my walk to the GZ. Good day to find this cache as its nice and dry. Cache in good condition. TFTC

TFTC wanaus.

Not sure if the cache is where it's supposed to be. Was lying on the ground pretty much in the open. Regardless, I'm glad I went barefoot for this one as most of the trail in was a river

Easy find but not great to get to if it’s been raining a lot

Dodged the showers and found this well hidden hide. Thanks for the hide

OK nice

Found it! 23/4/22 26° blue skies. Out on our bikes for a ride along the river.

A little intense to get to but a fun find!

Fun

Perfit

Exhilarating find!

Nots of water and mud on path. Lots of fun. Thank you

We were unable to find this cache. Lots of water around, and we’re not very experienced

Found!

Nice spot, passed by on my permitted 1 hour lockdown exercise walk on ANZAC Day 2021. TNLNTFTC

Found it, still in good condition and matches the hint.

Found!

Out for a cycle on this fine arvo. Headed East with the breeze behind all the way out to Cannington, before I battled it the 16km back home. Found plenty of good quality caches.

Cycled along the sandy track out to here. Took a little bit of searching before I located the cache. All was in excellent condition. Log was fresh too. Cheers WanderingAus!

TFTC. Nice track into this remote cache. Thanks for bringing us here. Beautiful natural environment amongst the urban environment

Swapped a bouncy ball

Introducing Jensen8813 to the game with the geo kids today.
Our last find for today as geo kids are beginning to fade.
A fav for our morning doing your caches.
Thanks for the hide WanderingAus

Little bit hard but was fun!

WanderingAus wandered by on a maintenance run, confirmed the cache was missing again, and replaced it in the same spot.

The cache is now a drab camo'd 65mm diameter 165mm high plastic screw top container, with log book, finders cards, pen, two pencils, a pencil sharpener, and a few swaps.

Good to go again.

###Cache Owner Action Needed###
This cache has been brought to my attention as likely to be missing.
After a string of successful Finds, it has now had a string of DNFs. I agree that this certainly suggests that something has happened at the cache location which requires investigation by the CO.
I am going to Disable it, and I'll check back in 4 weeks to see if either

- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated when action will be taken

If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then regrettably the cache will be archived.

The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Thank you

I was following the navigation, and I searched around the area, but after 15 minutes I still couldn't find the geocache.

Looked everywhere, can’t find this one. It’s a decent size so perhaps the gps is off?

Lovely spot, nice stroll from home. But didn't find after 20mins of looking. Will try again another time.

No luck today

Couldn’t find it

Couldn’t find

We got stuck in bogey sand and I looked at my phone and looked into the bush and I saw the box right Infront of me me and my friend now will go find more

Awesome

Took a little while as we were looking a bit far from the cache. Finally found and hidden in plain site!

Good find, took a little bit since location was a bit off.

Nope

WanderingAus wandered by on a maintenance run, and replaced the cache container and all contents.

The cache is still a drab painted 120mm diameter 200mm high (2 litre) round screw-top container, with log book, finders cards, pen, two pencils, a pencil sharpener, and a few swaps.

Great spot

WanderingAus wandered by on a maintenance run, and replaced the cache container and all contents.

The cache is now a drab camo'd 90mm diameter 200mm high plastic screw top container, with log book, finders cards, pen, two pencils, pencil sharpener, and a selection of swaps.

Looked for quite a while but no sign.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Thx for the geograph it was preety cool how it was under a stick

Another quick find tftc

Wandering around this lovely area. As I walked in saw the sign about snakes and wandered if I would see one. 2 mins later I came across a tiger snek doing his thing. We exchanged curious looks and both went about our business. Quick find at GZ. Very nice walk. TFTC.

Day 152 of our 366 day straight challenge.

Definitely chose the wrong path to this cache today. On the plus side I discovered my boots are actually waterproof. And I was very thankful I chose these shoes for today!

Once I eventually arrived at GZ I was rewarded with a quick and easy find. Cache in good condition, log signed and cache replaced as found. Now to get back to the car the other way TFTC!

Find 2 of 15 on a MTB ride through the Canning River wetlands and vaious parts south. Significantly warmer than our previous wintry rides today which made for a lovely ride. 5 DNFs along the way - defeated by some tough hides.

Managed to ride the whole way out to this one. Previously the start of the track was underwater but it's all subsided now. Quick find.

TFTC WanderingAus!

Cool find TFTC

Thanks

Nice find. Tftc The-Shredder

Found quickly with The-Shredder. TFTC

Thanks

Nice walk with the

Nice walk through the bush. Track was a bit wet. Cache all good.

Bush path, flooded in parts, close to the river. Thanks for the cache.

Thank you! Quick find.

Nice short walk off the track. Found quite easily once the GPS settled.

Continuing our walk on this lovely winter's morning. All in very good condition.TFTC

An other beautiful day for geobiking.
Quick find.
TFTC

Bike ride around the river collecting caches that have been on the to-do list. Lovely day for it. Tfth

TFTC, it was a bit of a walk, lucky the weather was good today and not to hot.

Still chasing down my last few hidden dates to reach my end of year goal. So this mornings early (to beat the heat) caching adventure was brought to you by the city of Canning. After grabbing my missing dates quickly, I had time to spare so decided to have a wander down the river. Sadly the dogs didn't come because they would of loved this. This one was a bit too snake scary for my likings but what are the odds on the short 10ms it was off the track. All good no slithery things and was rewarded by a great cache. The last one for the day as its starting to warm out so its home and aircon time. Will return to complete the series on another day as I really enjoyed these caches. TFTC and series WanderingAus

Had charged past this spot before chasing the final of a multi, so focused on the prize that I didn't realise that there was another cache in the vicinity. Managed to pick it up today with almost no help from the phone GPS. TFTC WanderingAus.

Lovely series of non-micro caches in lovely surroundings. TFTH. The paths into the geocache GZ were very muddy and flooded this weekend. The terrain could even go up to a 3 starat this time of year. We approaches it all on foot, and not by kayak. Did a bit of wading, got wet sneakers. Good little adventure. Thanks L: calling card. T: nothing.

Been eyeing off this one for a while but was awaiting winter to make our second attempt. First attempt was aborted due to the fact that it was summer and we left the track too early and ended up with serious bush bashing disorder. After closer scrutiny of the geocaching map, we realised an easier route was possible and so we headed out. Arrived via the track and found the huge cache full of swag. SLTNLN. THANKS WanAus for a great cache.

Last one of the day.
Got bitten by a mozzie/ant/spider (couldn't see it...) but we found the cache!! ^^

Spiderwebs ahhh

WanderingAus wandered by on a maintenance run, replaced the container with a drab painted 120mm diameter 200mm high round screw-top container. Cache contents were mostly in good condition, topped up the finders cards and added a few swaps.

Tftc and introducing me to this new walking spot on my way home from work. Ditto about maintenance required the lid is only a rim now

Our final find for today. Another easy one for the kids.

The container lid is broken, managed to place some plastic between the container and the lid which may keep it dry temporarily but the lid doesn't seal.

Found on an early morning walk. As previously noted the container lid is broken, managed to place some plastic between the container and the lid which may keep it dry temporarily but the lid doesn't seal. TFTC WanderingAus

Found it! Should I add that geocaching in the dark automatically adds one or two difficulty points to the cache? This cache ought to be upgraded to an ammo box, the current container is FUBAR. TFTC! Nice spooky spot at night!

As others have mentioned, the lid has totally disintegrated. Cache contents are dry for now. Took TB, LN. SL at 12:30pm. TFTC -regards 38degsouth -Melbourne, VIC.

Needs a bit of tlc lids broken. Good find

Found it after a long ride through water which was across the track. I had hoped the recent rain would have made the sandy track easy to ride on. Instead, it made it very difficult with hundreds of metres of water to cycle through. Despite that I found the cache easy enough and signed the log. As previous cachers have said the container lid is broken and needs replacing to keep the rain out. Thanks for the cache WanderingAus.
