Day 36 of 365! This years resolution is to find at least a cache a day. Not only for the thrill of the chase but I’ll also get super fit as well!
Pretty sure I’d attempted this cache a few years ago and failed but found the cache that used to be on the road side of the car park. Easy find here today. Tftc!
This paraglider was just floating around near GZ singing.

blingg, I found your cache Iluka Beach Smile. The log sheet is damp and torn, but writable. I’ve put the log sheet in a new dry ziplock bag. SL Thank you for bringing me here and TFTH. Images show:
01 From Illuka Beach facing west towards Tamala Limestone [Late Pleistocene (126,000 to 11,700 years ago)] shoreline platform cut by marine erosion.
02 Marmion Marine Park – From Trigg Island to Burns Rocks.

Cravo10 joined me today for our first really HUGE caching day for 2017, targeting a bunch of caches North of the River between Burns Beach and Woodlands, where we would be attending the Megawat60 "plus 5" event at jackadder lake to help Richard celebrate a special milestone.

We met up at our standard jaunt Cockburn Gateways car park for a 6am start to beat the heat, traffic and the weather! We drove all the way to the end of the freeway to complete yhe Neerabup Nature Trail caches, the find 30 trail caches and the ever elusive "60 attribute challenge" which has been on my geocaching radar since about forever! All caches were found in good condition in the series and we had no problems locating the final cache of the series.

We continued on a downward run picking up park and grab cache after park and grab cache after park and grab cache to try and cleanup some of the map up this way as we don't often travel this far north so we really needed to make the most of it.

We had got to around 1130 and had nearly 40 caches to our name and decided to pull into the shops to get some supplies and then head to the event, it was great to finally put some faces to some names I've seen amongst the logs over the last few months and years.

The highlight of the day would have to be the cake. THAT cake. OMG. Coolest cake I've seen in a very long time. Check the event images to see more.

We finished up the day after bidding our farewells to the crowds at the lake and tackling some caches in Stirling before heading to grab the nearby LBH cache and then called it quits some 7.5hrs of caching later.

We found a great variety of caches, some camo, some bush, some urban, and some big standard. Variety was the order of the day today as we managed to pickup a couple of mystery caches, a heap of traditionals, a multi, a letterbox hybrid and finally an event cache.

Thanks for a huge day out local COs we can't wait to come back soon.
