All good here. The coordinates are spot-on. The cash was neatly tucked away as described in the hint. TFTC.
Found a very possible GZ, but no Gc to be had! Will see following logs for updates
Staying close by. Here in Margaret River for a few days from NE VIC at much higher altitudes. The trail network and MTB has been awesome to explore. TFTC and the lure to stop by.
This was the second time we came back to find it - almost gave up but found it in the end! The photos others posted were a huge help. Thanks for another good hide.
Camping at RAC and thought we’d find a few caches. Fist one for the weekend found with Oliver and Rochelle! TFTC
Catching up on a whole lot of logging, so a bit of a late log...sorry! Found while visiting beautiful Margaret River. Staying nearby, we enjoyed the walks through the forest. Thank you for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.
What a beautiful area and great location for a cache, a favourite! This one also fills a spot for my Jasmer challenge. Lots of people enjoying the tracks today despite the rain. Thank you for the hide The_Lazy_Hiker.
Took us a little while to find but a great a cache with some great treasures. Bonus we got a walk on chimney trail with dog Sandie. Thankyoooo MCKENZIEFAM OUT
I got terribly lost on the mill MTB trails and walked my bike to this track to try to escape. Long grass to get to GZ. Thanks for the hide.
Out and about on a cool day with some time to grab a few caches.
Nice to find an ammo can in the bush !!
Too wet for the ants today.
Thanks for the cache The Lazy Hiker - all was in good order

In Margs for the weekend, staying at the RAC Nature Park so I took the opportunity to grab some of these caches before the rain, that was forecast set in.
Some of the finds proved a little hard in the afternoon Twilight
Enjoyed the walk and the history lessons from the signs posted along the paths..

Thanks the_lazy_hiker for bringing me to this location and taking the time to hide and maintain this cache. I found the cache at 17:31:00. This was my Find 8 for today out of a Total number of 13 Finds and 0 DNF for for this Caching Outing. The cache was found in Good Condition and I signed the log and returned the cache as I found it.
This find brings my total number of Finds to 5071.
Wow, this one took me some searching as the colour of the can perfectly blended in with the ambient light at the time I was searching. But found it we did and our name in in the log.
Thanks for the cache the_lazy_hiker. Found at 10:53:00 AM it was cache number 3097 for me and was number 12 in my run of 16 finds and 0 DNFs for this holiday's geocaching effort.
Cheers
This one was quite a journey! Across the bush and a tree bridge! Found with SharkandSparkle!
The combination of d2 t3, bush trail, ammo can always leads to a happy Chudles, and this was no exception!
Out ‘n about with m4yb getting a few caches.
Having some fun and chillaxing in the beautiful SouWest.
Tackling the rails and trails plus other series today. Bike out and off we go. We walked into this one and oh wow just love the trees. How awesome is nature.

Day 4 exploring the picturesque SW with megawat60, now riding the geobikes through the Wharncliffe woodland. We left the bikes, enjoyed the walk except for the last 20 or so m off the track as the way in has got overgrown in the last 10 years, including blackberries. Was happy when he spotted it! Thanks for this cache lazy hiker!
A beautiful day for a hike in the woods looking for caches. This was a fun one. Took a bit of a search but after reading an old log that said it was a ways off the trail I followed the coordinates and it took me right to the cache. Sometimes you just have to trust the GPS.
Thanks for this fun ammo can in the woods The Lazy Hiker!

The forecasted rain did not come, so we decided to head down to Margs for the markets and a walk in the forest.
Last find on the way back to the carpark.
Thanks the_lazy_hiker for the hide.

TFTC! Had a lovely couple of days away with the Geowife, which ironically Cravo10 and ItsKate had booked into the same town as us for the weekend.
With strict instructions on how many caches I could get from the geowife it was a bit like pulling teeth to grab some caches and had to trade off buying a few extras for her to get "just one more"!! This would have to be some of the most expensive caching I've done for some time!!
We were lucky as the Geowife loves a sleep in some pre breakfast caching is allowed, which saw us renting bikes from the hair marron on Brussel highway (highly recommended) and tackling a bunch of the rails to trails series and the caches around wharncliffe mill, which was a huge amount of fun.
This weekend has got me extremely interested in completing the cape to cape track, so we may be back down this way sooner than we otherwise would have. It was a great weekend with some lovely views, awesome wineries, some breweries and who can't resist the olive oil and chocolate factory!! Thanks to the local COs

So a little get away down south was on order just a short stay to enjoy the tourist attractions or just some of our favourite food and beverage places. I will be honest B12 told me he was heading down and I thought a great time to catch some caches with him down there.
It didn't take long for the partners to soon see through the "coincidence" however luckily the 2 ladies love a sleep in and made for enough time to find a handful in the mornings.
Great mornings walk through the forest. Should have brought the whole clan. Gps wasn't good through some parts but found all but one. Took and fallen branch across the creek. Tftc.
Trust your navigation and take the beaten path off the main path. Beautiful spot. Tftc
Found during our holiday in Australia.
Thanks to all COs.

We took the most direct track to this cache from Wharnclift mill 3 cache. I wouldn't advise accessing this one on a bike as the track was rather rough and it involved a water crossing. After finding the cache, took a more sensible way out.
I love how this game just pulls you off the beaten track occasionally ...this cache did just that but with perfect co-rods we were onto it pretty quick..thanks Eric and Sonja, a beauty.
Dropped off Pompom...
We noticed that a lot has changed since we created this cache. A lot of trees went down and the cache is not hidden in the original location anymore. We will come back and review the cache and description.

Great spot and find after a fantastic geo-challenge weekend family event by Nature Play WA.
Didn't realise there was a trail so we ended up going from the campsite and down through the bush. Finding it in the end made it an awesome adventure.
Found while cycling the Rails to Trails and taking a detour on Chimney Trail. Thanks.
Lovely Sunday afternoon walk through the forrest. Geokids had fun! Such a beautiful part of the world! TFTC.
Out with Chwiliwr today doing some work prepping for the upcoming Natureplay weekend around Margaret river.
We decided to grab some caches as well. This was a nice quick find whilst on our bush walk.

Down in Margaret River doing some preliminary work for a Nature Play event proposed for the Wharncliffe Mill in May this year.
Whilst out and about we grabbed some caches.
Nice quick find whilst out on a walk around the mill area.
Thanks eric.sonja for the cache.

Was tricky! Dense bush so trickier with younger kids. Great cache though and well worth it!
At the moment I'm on a work and travel backpacking year through the world. Most of the time I'll spend in Australia and I'm trying to solve my 365 days of caching challenge during this trip. The chance of having a moving home zone should be takes, as it will make the challenge so much easier.
While staying on the Wharncliffe Mill camping ground I made a short walk around the forest around.
It took me quite a while to find the right way to this cache. This was probably more time consuming, than the search for the box itself. The way via the course of the stream is not the best idea..
But anyways, found the container, which is in a good condition.
TFTC and greetings from Germany

Rode the Pines MTB track then detoured off on the walk trails to this one...no walkers were harmed though ...very wet and overgrown but a wonderfully secluded and tranquil spot. Had to widen the search a bit and use the old cache radar but got it in the end. Thanks for the well stocked cache, I do love an ammo tin.
