WanAus 47 - River Return #1 Riverton, Western Australia, Australia
By WanderingAus on 07-Feb-08. Waypoint GC1966K

What a great way to spend a sunny Saturday morning! Bring some water and snacks because it's quite the walk for little lolly-legs. Finding a good swishy stick to ward off the nope ropes near the end is important too. Thanks for the cache! Bulked it up with a few more swaps

Solving puzzles and inputting coordinates as part of a multicache was a first for us but happy we found it in the end! The final cache was completely buried maybe due to weather but thankfully not in the grass. Left some croc charms for the next people to find. Tftc!

Like many others this one was an issue for me. I tried twice before but waypoint 5 stumped me.A few years later and I was back to sort it out. A few more simple errors are making me feel illiterate. At way point 5 I again misread the instructions but the area was much clearer than my last visit. After a frustrating 10 minutes I finally spotted what I had overlooked previously. Finally!Off to GZ and a quick find there. TFTC and the frustration.

Started this cache a few months ago and pulled the notebook out and came around to WP5 to start the hunt for the final coordinates.With the final location plugged in we made our way to some suitable parking and found a goat track to follow towards GZ.Progress slowed as we neared 0m as the scrub got quicker.With the signal bouncing around a little the phones went away and we started checking all the good looking hosts.Took about 5 minutes and a couple of passes before monkeywand spotted the hide and we were able to add our names to the log.Walking back to the car ended up being much quicker. A Tuesday night out with monkeywand where we looped around the city starting In Hamilton Hill, heading across to Riverton, up to Shenton Park and the made our way along Stirling Hey.A good variety of caches were found and I collected 6 finds and 1 DNF. Thanks WanderingAus for placing WanAus 47 - River Return #1 for me and others to find.I added my name to the log at 21:51 on 7/11/2023.This is find number 7806 for me.

Out and about with Cirrus_WA for another Tuesday night caching run. Gave us a good search in the dark

Lovely day for a CITO event. Muggle enjoyed his paddle and then bike riding around the river picking up a few caches. Thanks

Found after a nearby kayaking CITO event. I fetched the required information for this multi many, many moons ago. Cheers WanderingAus!

Found with TeamBarritts, Arnottfamily and neva2old after CITO event!! Tftc!! ??

Found this very well hidden cache with TeamBarritts, BJA3 and neva2old.

Met up here with several other geocachers fir this find , had to do a bit of digging as the cache hadn’t been found in over a year. All good here .

Some logs signed as N2O.

This is my 11500find.
Thankyou WanderingAus for placing and maintaining this cache

Attending the nearby CITO with BJA3, we also managed to pick up some close by hides. This one was found after a short search and some digging. Found with BJA3, Arnottfamily and N2O.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for us and others to enjoy finding!

Must be the first person NOT to find this one. Lots of evidence of other cachers scouring the area, but alas I came up with nothing. Withstood the mozzies as long as I could but had to give up eventually.

TFTC . Kept mostly dry.

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

Found it

TFTC. This was a great adventure, working our way through the waypoints which took about 1 hour. No problems at all and a nice find in the end. Nice off the beaten track location got ground zero. The cache is in good condition. Signed log, swapped some SWAG and replaced cache.

Started this multi a few years back never quite made it to GZ... Today whilst in the area I decided to finally finish it off, much to the kids disgust

Not sure about the T rating on this one, but eventually got to GZ soaked & scratched where the kids made a quick find on arrival Thought about trying to get out a different way but the saying goes something like better the devil you know [};)]

TFTC WanderingAus Happy to finally cross this one off....

In the area and picked up a find here TFTH

Out this morning before tafe in thornlie so decided to grab a few caches in the burbs including a few puzzles that I had managed to stumble through and solve. Thanks for a nice morning out.

This little orange dot had been mostly hiding itself cleverly behind a yellow smiley so mostly ignored it. we had given it a go years ago but stumbled at the second last wp. Decided to redo it yesterday and after another wrong pole, finally got the coords for the final. They were there all the time but had missed them in the failing light. headed out to gz and realised i needed to go back and dig out the wellys that were used in the previous multi. to say there was a bit of bush bashing to get to gz is an understatement. Not a place to be in summer but managed to find a relatively easier path in to the cache tree. Glad these multis are now all found. thanks for the maintenance, even if you don't answer calls for help.

Three attempts at this one but got there in the end. A bit of a mix up at one off the poles

WanderingAus wandered by on a maintenance run, found the cache all in good order. Added two swaps.

WanderingAus wandered by on a maintenance run, and found the container in pretty bad shape.

I replaced the broken container with a drab camo'd 90mm high x 90mm diameter round screw-top container, and replaced all the contents, with new log book, pen, two pencils, sharpener, and a few small swaps.

An other beautiful day for geobiking.
We have to juggle between the serie and the multi. At WP we didn't know what we have to look after. When we decided to leave we found the good tree !! We jump on our bikes and go for the final.

This cache has been a thorn in our side for the last 12 months or so. It originally came to our attention when a couple of caches we submitted were knocked back due to being too close to this one. Not being huge multi fans we put it to one side and forgot about it. A recent conversation with another cacher made us question the actual location of the final so with renewed interest we set off in search. We collected all the way points by car but came a bit unstuck when we misinterpreted something and transposed something else. Finally everything fell in to place and we happily signed the log today

TFTC WanderingAus this is find # 2245 for us.

Collected all of the coordinates & then made our way to the finale. Don't know what's happening here as we found the cache just as Ooh Yeh described it.....strewn all over the place. So we too set about putting it all back together. We signed beneath Ooh Yeh's name & then began to wonder if there was another cache lurking around here somewhere as there were no other signatures on this one(it does have a laminated sheet with all the geocache info on it so it is a cache) Anyway TFTC

Had to back-track a few times as using my Garmin 72H has no backgound maps. Nevertheless enjoyed the walk and the simple clues. Cache is in good condition. Caution in the warmer months just in case our reptilian friends are up and about as there's a bit of bush-bashing to get to the GZ. Thanks WanAus, a smiley for our first Multi.

Performed some basic maintenance on the cache. The container isn't too bad, but it's not going to get absolutely soaked. I left a new logbook+plastic baggie, but you'll still need to bring your own pen for this one. Also dropped a TB.
Also, I found my pen! It was hanging from a bush quite a ways away from the cache! Must have brushed by it and it snagged it.

I have had this one on my hitlist for quite a long time, and did all the groundwork to get the final coordinates yesterday. I was surprised to find the final is actually about a 10 minute walk from home so I left it for today to take the dog for a walk to it! However, somewhere on the way I dropped my pen and I was not able to sign the log. I think i'll come back tomorrow and bring a replacement log book with me. Thanks for the nice long multi WanAus, and an awesome final spot to hide a cache.

I had to drop my mum at Bentley Hospital today so with a few hours to kill before picking her back up i headed out to grab some caches. I was starting to run out of time but decided to stop and do this one. After finally coming up with a set of co-ords i made my way to GZ. Once at GZ i noticed a grey plastic bag on the ground and after a bit more searching it was clear the cache has been muggled. I found another plastic bag and then i found the container which was cracked and full of water nearby. I gathered everything up and dried the container out but everything in the container is missing except the laminated geocaching note. I have put a piece of paper inside a plastic bag which i have signed and I put the container back in both plastic bags. My GZ had me at the tree so i have placed the container in the fork of the tree and covered it with a branch. The CO will have to replace the cache as its broken TFTC WanderingAus

That was a bit of a mission. Thought I had enough time yesterday morning to do a multi, so a couple of hours later thanks to some dodgy maths and path choices, I made the find. Thanks for putting in the time and effort to set this one up WanderingAus. TNLNSL.

I completed this cache over a series of early morning bike rides, as I went to each new waypoint on consecutive mornings. Finally I had the final coordinates and it was an easy stroll to the cache. Easily found in an area where I thought I was going to have some difficulty. All waypoint tags are in good order and I had no problems at all. Thanks for this cache WanderingAus.

Dropped the car off at a workshop in Willetton, so jumped on the geo-bike to collect a few smiles in the area.
I had to give up the search last December as the WP5 was damaged, this was the perfect time to finish this series off. Fortunately I had the geotagged photo in my phone, so I did not have to start the whole series again.
WO5 is OK now, and I could shoot to the final location. I had some issues with choosing the right track, but eventually got there.
Thanks for this well planned series.

We found it again. 4 years after the first time we found it ☺

WanderingAus wandered by, put new tags on the unburnt portions of two trees at Waypoint 5.

All good to go again.

catching up with Ricklinks and iluvtrekking for another day of geocaching in the new year, ..TFTC

While the geo-men were doing the Canning kayak series, Mrs iluvtrekking and I headed off to do this multi. When we downloaded to info there was no mention of the fire at w/p 5. So we did the previous w/p's to indeed arrive at w/p5 to find a fire had removed most evidence of w/p tags. I spotted a shrivelled bit of dymo tape on a tree and removed it. Returned to the car and together Mrs iluvtrekking and I scrutinised the burnt remnant using torch and magnifying glass. Surprisingly we were able to faintly make out most of the numbers but one digit we had a choice of a 9 or a 0. Fortunately was able to contact the CO while we were still in the area and quickly got the right digit confirmed. Returned to the kayak series to pick up the men then headed to gz. Send the three geo-men off down the track while Mrs iluvtrekking, the geo-schnauzers and I stayed in the comfort of the air-conned vehicles. Apparently a quick find at gz. Thanks WanAus for another well planned multi.

We had fun with this one finding all the information required without a hitch until WP5 when our luck changed. We were unaware of the fire, at first we were devastated but then Mrs richlink spotted the melted piece of dynamo tape on a tree. After some excellent detective work we were able to make out all but one of the numbers. After the CO confirmed our numbers we were able to sign the log and feel very satisfied with our efforts. Thanks WanAus, another enjoyable multi.

Arrived to the "final" started following the numbers, but arriving to WP5 we found the area burnt down a bit, and only found remains of the plastic tag.

I have been collecting these waypoints for the last week or so . Today I just had #5 and the final to get . Jeez I think I took the wrong way to get to the container , very tall and dense scrub . Anyway I pressed on and made the find [^]. As always, I found an easier way out

WanderingAus - jinta29 found your cache WanAus 47 - River Return #1 on 2/12/2014 6:27 am. This is my find #2459 and find #5 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Our first ever smiley!

Decided to finally track this one down during the last week. Knocked off all the waypoints by car yesterday. My calculations for waypoint 5 must have been a little bit off as the GPSr was pointing into the backyard of a private residence. There were some likely candidates in the opposite direction and was to pleased to spot the tag with the final co-ords.

Today I grabbed the geodog and went in search of the final. A bit of a bush bash to get to GZ but a quick find once there.

Took TB

SLTFTC

Thought I would focus my hunt around picking up some puzzle caches that had been sitting in the solved pile for a while. Headed northwards and started the day in the Manning area. Then headed down do these riverside ones. The council have just been through and mown most of the grassy areas down, so not too much chance of finding any snakes today, fortunately.

Made one miscalculation at the second waypoint, but soon had that sorted out and quickly finished off the rest. Cache was found in good condition too. Left a trackable to continue its journey. Thanks WanderingAus

WanderingAus wandered by to Waypoint 5 on a maintenance run. The tags were missing, so I stapled another two on dead trees, one at the calculated coords, and one about 3 metres further from the path.

It was all smooth sailing until I got to way point 5. It seems like I was in the right place but I couldn't see any metal or plastic tags on any of the trees.

Would have given this another 0.5 on difficulty as don't think it is partially wheelchair friendly. A nice easy cache all the same and thank you WanderingAus. TNLF

It has been some time since I found any WanderingAus caches so with three near by I decided a wander was in order. I was not sure if I had sufficient time to complete this one but decided to make a start. Fortunately I made no mathematical mistakes so after gathering all the WP on finally sound the cache in the bush as I was expecting.

Thanks WanderingAus.

TFTC.

I was having a lot of fun with this multi, it took me past a couple of houses that friends of mine used to live in! Good memories.

Problem is though, I was carrying 2 GPSR's (my phone and my Garmin) and both gave me WP5 as being in someones backyard. I went back to the previous power pole, double checked the number (and my math), went back to WP5 and found the same thing! I searched around all the nearby trees but ended up having to leave as I was beginning to draw muggle attention. I have noticed the other logs saying it's out by about 10 metres though. It was dark by the time I was at WP5 so I will return and have a better look during the daytime.

Thanks for the hunt so far!

took a while but got there in the end...tftc...cheers...

I've had a couple of cracks at this, first time had geo-daughter in tow, made it to WP5 before she started to get ancy (pretty good for a 2 yo, and considering I started doubting the numbers wo was walking around in circles), 2nd time checked numbers for WP5, made (what I thought was a correction), went back, pressed for time, no luck, came home, thought "shiny metal tag" will be extra shiny with a flash light in the dark, checked and corrected numbers AGAIN, returned, GPS jumping all over, so again fail. Gah.

Mrs Felix still working all of Easter, so Mr Felix teamed up with Tanzanite! for an adventurous days caching South of the River!

It seems if there is a hard way to do things we will find it.

A nice simple little multi by WanderingAus. I think it's time to upgrade my glasses. Struggled to read the numbers when we got to each waypoint. We checked as we went along.

Didn't really find a path either. So took the best track we could between the waypoints to our GZ. On arrival at GZ we looked and looked but couldn't find a cache. Self doubt is the worst possible thing.

Being uncertain of the waypoints we retraced our steps but they were all correct! We chose a different way into GZ on our 2nd try... Not the best option in fact the absolute worst option 2nd time around. We are both cut and scratched after a full bush bash to GZ.

Darn it we arrived back at the same tree! Tricky seeing as we had the same co-ords. [:o)]

Oh well lets have another look! Tired, scratched & hungry now as it was 1pm we searched again. Gradually we expanded our search out into areas that were very unlikely to hold the cache. Finally Mr Felix came up with the goods in thick bush 6-7metres from GZ.

The cache had been clearly muggled by a 4 legged muggle! The outer bag had been extensively chewed but the cache itself appears to be okay. Had some mucky sweet stuff inside which we removed but otherwise seems okay. Have placed it back in the obvious location for the next intrepid cacher. Hmmm due to us double checking everything and bushbashing it took us 2 hours to complete this cache!

At least it was a glorious day to be out caching. Pssst Tanzanite is cranky about her new sneakers being all mucky and dirty after our efforts here! (What a girl.....)

TFTC WanderingAus

Out for a day of caching with Mr Felix II and what a dirty and periodically frustrating day it was - luckily for me I had paired up with a buddy who saved my sanity on this most trying of caching days!

AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I rename this cache "hokey pokey". In and out, back and forth we went trying to sort out this sodding thing. By the end of it I was that angry I was shaking all about! As previously posted by Mr Felix serious time was spent checking and rechecking our movements. It was bad enough going into the bush for GZ the first time around (Thompson Clan, you lie!!!!! There was no meadow here, just bush upon bush with splintery little thorns on them! Talk about a cache log that built up my optimism only to have it teared down again

I was oh so close to chucking a minor tantie when Mr FelixII suggested tackling the cache from a different angle, but soldier on I did (I'm so brave!). Lucky for us, Mr FelixII had the inclination to look further afield and find the abandoned cache in bushland a good 10 metres from GZ. I was so happy I felt like hugging him.

After having only recently removed my last splinter of the same ilk acquired at the March rogaine, I have a whole stack of new ones to keep me entertained on those boring nights when I think I have nothing to do.

WanderingAus, we will be having words about this cache later you sadist. Thanks for the hunt though!

OK..found it. The shinny numbers are hard to see but it wasn't until the last post I found you can verify on another lable. Waypoint 5 ..MMMMM, tricky for me to find easiest way in but had a good walk.
Took the TB TFTC WanderingAus it was fun.

Oops, I forgot to log that I returned with the finders cards on Saturday evening and also dropped in a supply of swaps.

Now very much good to go.

WanderingAus wandered by on a maintenance run, all was good, but I couldn't find the supply of Finders Cards in my backpack, so I went back to the geoPajer and looked there, and still didn't find them, so I returned to the cache to make sure I hadn't dropped them there. Dropped Travel Bug Dog Tag (Ref = TB33B1Y) (A VIP Pass for the 2009 Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta), also dropped my WanderingAus GeoMobile TB and a couple of other travellers in for a visit before grabbing them back again.

I'll return with the finders cards soon.

Glad to finally knock this one off but a good adventure. Like blingg I had trouble with the last way point but today let the gps settle longer and there was way point. Good puzzle to get to GZ which the last 100m was covered with water but in lovely flower meadow. Found easily but there was a huge centipede inside which gave a bit of a shock! TFTC.

I returned this morning to the given co-ords and did a circuit of the piece of infrastructure without seeing required info then did another turn this time without my sunglasses on and the faint numbers appeared, so off to WP2, the numbers here and at WP3 and WP4, were hard to distinquish, but after doing the series a second time I still could not find WP5

Not sure what blingg is on about as I've been slowly doing this one this week since I ride past every day. Number is still there on the 'infrastructure' and not painted over.

It seems blingg was mistaken. thompson_clan logged "Number is still there on the 'infrastructure' and not painted over", so the freebie is now painted over.

When Blingg got to the start point he found the piece of "infrastructure " had been repainted and the letters and numbers covered over. A temporary fix is in.

Couldn't even start as I could see no numbers on the "infrastructure"

What a great day we had...geodog, muggle bf and I! Out for the day! One after one we got them all pretty easily. Metal tag at Waypoint 5 wdidnt seem to be there. Plastic one was (half on) - is starting to fall off tree and didnt have anything to find it.

So with final coordinates to the cache we set out....Circling the GZ at a distance of 60-80 metres we could not find a way in. Geodog was havign a great time testing the depth of all the puddles for us. Finally we decided it was time to bush bash our way in....and when the muggle bf with the GPS pointed in a direction with a distance I could tell exaclty where it was....once we got in the find was easy. NOTHING in the cache though besides paper....wish I had a geocoin on me I couldve dropped here but had left one in car! LOL.

This was a great day out and Muggle bf had a ball and geodog slept well that night

TFTC. TNLN

Nearly gave up but we didn't and we found it. Sylvia, Alycia (7yrs), James (4yrs) and Michael (2yr). There wasn't many items left in the cache. We didn't leave or take anything, just logged our visit.

We a really fun afternoon.

Found it after wandering up a few wrong tracks till we found the right one. Tree at waypoint 5 was about 9 metres off with my GPS and seemed to have lost it's shiny metal tag, but still had it's plastic tag.
Cache was a bit wet externally so I dried it out as best I could.

This Multi was a long walk!! I didn't think it would be that long. lol Thought we'd leave lunch in the car and go do the multi then come back, have lunch and then go look for some of the other caches in the area. Well we finished the multi! Finally! and found all the ones we had marked to look for on the way back to the car to get our lunch at 3pm!! (Poor Kids) Mental note...next time maybe eat lunch before ding a multi!! At least we had snacks and water!

We had lunch and headed off to Carousel for a Madzoon Icecream (frozen Yogurt)

Had a lovely (full) afternoon wandering around the river!!

We had planned for a full day's ramble round these parks -- but ended up with just a couple of short hours to spare. So we took the car from point to point.

A great little multi -- but not recommended by car when schools are closing! Lots of ins and outs along unknown (to us) roads, twisting & turning, avoiding children on foot and parents in cars... And we were even poo-bombed by a crow.

Still a lot of fun with the level of "puzzle" challenge that we like. ie straightforward... Thank you

took us three days to find but we finally can say we found it. I had a little trouble with the the metal tag waypoint but got across the line with the help of kat 09 eyes and xinders. The last waypoint was a great location.

We've been meaning to do this one for a while ... and finally did it over a few days. We thoroughly enjoyed looking for the waypoints and the final destination was just beautiful. We made a mistake with the last waypoint and found ourselves going back to the pole (just like Mickydv did!) checking it again, and again (yes, we went back twice ) .... and recalculating .... and still the gps was off by at least 10 metres.... so we used common sense .... and thought "Hmmm which tree would WanAus pick in a place like this???" ... and luckily we found the right tree with the co-ordinates .... yay!! Thank you so much WanAus! Also a huge thank you to the dogs and us for replacing the cache!!

Found all the waypoints on the weekend and left the final destination to today. It was easy to do this by car however we make a few mistakes with one of the calculations which set us back. We could not find the metal tags but found the co-ordinates on plastic. You've put the cache in a great spot. It is beautiful this time of the year with all the flowers beginning to bloom. I don't understand how it got muggled. The cache is nice and dry in its double bag. Final co-ordinates spot on! TFTC WanAus and to The dogs and us for replacing it.

We enjoyed finding all the waypoints and we did that a few days ago, finding this cache only today. I really loved the final location. There are so many plants there. We saw Kangaroo Paws in bloom and huge white lillies in the distance .... There were also different types of sundews and many other plants there. It was a good time to look for the cache. Thank you!!

Have been avoiding this one for ages as I'm not usually that keen on mutis....but decided to knuckle down and give it a go as it was the last cache to clear a 5km radius from my home coords and ended up really enjoying a winter afternoon's ride around this lovely suburb....had to turn back once as I misread numbers on pole andWP5 took quite a search but soon had cache in hand...Thanks again wanaus and thanks to the dogs and us for replacing cache...great to see another example of the spirit of the caching community.

On Sunday we decided to start WanAus series of river Caches we got as far as the tree but it was too dark to see anything so we went back to the car. On Monday we started again we couldnt find the shiny tag but found the plastic one OK we went to the final location and found some one had been before us and took the Cache. We had a good look around and found the plastic bag so we put it back where it should have been. After further searching we found a red pencil sharpener and a can cooler with Machmahon on it, this was in very good condition it hadn't been on the ground long. It maybe wasn't even in the Cache to start with I had a look and couldn't see if any one had left one. Thanks WanAus for a great multi cache and we will look forward to doing more of yours.

Took adult geo-offspring with us on this lovely sunny day and enjoyed the hunt. The cache however was full of ants. I was amazed to see that no one has been here since Nov 2009. They should. Took Triceratops. Put in Charonosaurus.

We have the advantage of using our daughter new car today. Had thought of doing this cache on foot but since the car is there! An awesome multi – TFTH, WanderingAus.

Followed Dark Energy and OzMom caching and this is my first multi in Australia. We had fun locating those power poles and shiny metal plates! Thanks for the multi, WanderingAus.

It was just yesterday I got this car and today it’s off geocaching! I don’t really mind really. After all it is put into good use! Thank you WanderingAus. That was a great multi!

This mark the first encounter of the great WanderingAus. We were pretty happy to have been successful to find this multi. Hard work but certainly worth the effort! TFTC, WanderingAus. Greeting from Geocaching Malaysia in Facebook.

Found it with iTreasureHunt2. Battled a bit of wind and rain to get there. Good ride on the bikes. iTreasureHunt2 got swooped by a magpie just after Waypoint 3 The hardest bit was locating the tree at Waypoint4. GPS played a trick, so we ate an apple each and went fro a ride to the nearby board walk. On return the GPS made more sense. The flowers near the final GZ were stunning. (Last time we were in this area there no flowers.) TNLN TFTH

Found it with iTreasureHunt. Had a few showers and it was very very windy. Good ride on the bikes. Waypoint 1 was dead easy. I got swooped by a magpie just after Waypoint 3 . GPS played tricks at waypoint 5 because iTreasureHunt made a mistake. The final GZ was muddy and floody but the cache was high and dry. It was not very covered when we got there so we left it more covered. Good fun ride back to the car.

Found with no real problems, Gps accurate to all co-ordinates and the final GZ. Long walk but lovely after a successful day of geo caching. Geo Dog loved it especially the swimming in the puddles after the recent rains.
Thanks for the hunt.
TNLN

Bugger... got all the way to the tree and couldn't find the tag with the cache co-ords.

Definitely a nice bit of travelling around, had not been to the 1st waypoint area for about 10 years and brought back fond memories of the area. Had to scrounge around for a while at waypoint 5 before finding it. Then GZ was fine.
TNLNSL
Thanks for the Hunt

Nice walk. Made the realisation that all cachers need to vote for Daylights Savings, there just isnt enough light anymore!!!

TFTC TNLNSL

I took the walk option with my 5 year old son. It certainly took us through the burbs before returning us to the river. Got to waypoint five but didn't have time to look as had to pick up the rest of the family. sprinted back to car> will finish off shortly I hope.

As this was our nearest unfound to Curtin we thought we would start it today. In the event we kept on until we completed it just before dark.

This certainly takes the cacher all over the shop! Glad I used the car option because it would be a fair hike back to the car if on foot!
GZ area was fairly wet underfoot on the way in and I had to backtrack a couple of times to find a better way in as some of the possibilities were underwater.
A quick find though. Had nothing to trade. Cache is in good order.
Thanks for this series of caches, WanderingAus.
TNLN SL

Drove around the waypoints for this one, then found the cache easily after a not-so-easy journey in to GZ, during which I lost the lenscap of my new camera which was out on its first caching day! The cache was being guarded by a blue-tongue lizard which remained motionless in its sentry duty only a metre from the cache - and yes it was still alive. TNLN. Thanks WanderingAus.

coudn't find a power pole at WP2 with only 5 numbers on a shiny metal plate, all had 6 or 7 digits

(chwiliwr team catch up log)

Chwiliwr had a little problem with miss keying the second waypoint and so we ended up going extra distance and then the sun was not in the right position to read the second last waypoint properly so initially went to the wrong position but soon corrected and the cache found.

Thanks for the cache.

Had a little problem with misskeying the second waypoint and going extra distance and then the sun was not in the right position to read the second last waypoint properly so initially went to the wrong position but soon corrected and the cache found. Took the TB and the Geocoin.

Thanks for the cache.

Had a good time wandering around the different waypoints for this cache, making a bit more difficult than intended by getting the wrong posts and reading the numbers wrong... and then tripping over a log at WP5 [B)]
Took TBs, left Flying Flag TB & Aust GC & $2 note.
Thanks for the hunt, WanderingAus.

Nice walk... didn't realise what 1.5 CroKs were, now I do. Long walk back to the car, but very enjoyable on a lovely Perth day.

Took Matchbox Car (only because we couldn't fit it back in)

Left Lucy the Elephant, No Gruff! and the Boomerang TB's

TFTH

Enjoyed driving around the waypoints for this one, and picked up a few other caches on the way. Due to the tree coverage my coords at WP5 (looking for the tag on the tree)were about 8m out. Searching here was made more difficult by the mozzies, but I didn't see them at any of the other WP's.

Another great trip around the river areas. Took nothing, left Snoopy TB, thanks for the cache.

Dropped "Whangarei, New Zealand" Unite for Diabetes Travel Bug, also dropped WanderingAus Happy New Year 2008 Gold GC for a visit before grabbing it again to continue it's travels.
