This cache was disabled by Geocaching HQ Admin (Lackey)! (See note 16/1/2015.)
We have been waiting (with baited breath) to find out whether our cache can stay in this location. It's close to a track, quite educational and has received many favourable comments, so it would be a pity if we couldn't keep it.

Picked up Pathtag before City of S beats us. Thanks Barrikon

Find 400! Hope this one can be relocated to comply. Pathtag left to celebrate number 400. Swaps made. TFTC

Quick visit to check on our full size cache. Added a few more trinkets. 'Discovered' 'Llangwathan Cross' GC and 'Treasure me that' TB. Didn't notice 'Around Australia' TB. Perhaps the next visitor could check and report?

Our first day out at Star Swamp, have been waiting for the snakes to go by by's and the weather to be a bit cooler, today was superb. After a nice ride and not a success at our first hunt, it was great to find this nice size container, so dropped of Treasure Me That.

Thanks UltraVets for a great cache.

This was my second attempt at this, and today I ended up near it just by chance while finding signs for a nearby puzzle... Not sure why I made it so difficult last time, today the hound I went went straight to it

Spent another great day caching with JacobsCrew, in the northern suburbs of Perth.
Visited lots of parks & did some bush walks, where we found a good variety of caches
& some clever hides. Thanks for the cache, UltraVets.

Easy find. Geoson thrilled to see the actual container. Geodog in training had to be carried through terrain (rather delicate canine who dislikes anything sharp). Great info too about the trees. Thanks for this one.

Always good to find a big container in the bush thanks

Great to see a regular sized cache in Star Swamp. An unusual tree there that looks like it may be fire affected too. But anywho, if you say it was for making a shield then who am I to argue. TNLNSL TFTC UltraVets

After doing some maintenance nearby, this was an obvious need-to-find. TFTC!

Great fun, thanks

Nice one it was easy .

Geokids found this one first! 5th and last for the day in the reserve, a great little adventure and this final cache is a great size for swaps. TFTC

Thanks for the cache. Unfortunately no trackables inside.

Did not find because I was confused about using the compass. Will try again now I understand!

Thanks
