Time to lay this one to rest.

Water is not receding so the cache needs to be disabled for a while.

Wow after storms the water was on the boardwalk

Searched and searched and searched over and over again but the tide was so high I just could not find it. Was with jamesknowlson who had previously found it and he believes it could be missing. Thanks anyways mister_clyde

Nice area for bird watching. Thanks.

Some more down south of Albany. Enjoying WAGB21 weekend. I put a mint tin about 5m away up high - looks like CO is t maintaining. Thanks for the hide

Found with nephew cache missing

Found where cache should be after a hint from spencer but the cache is missing which is why i was having trouble finding it

Cache needs replacing by the look of it

Cache needs replacing by the look of it
Empty hole no cache in the hiding spot

Found the spot cache should be with my son geocachehunter97
Cache is missing and needs replacement

Couldn't find most clues where about scraping my belly I'm 60 have trouble getting down so probably will have to skip this one unfortunately

We did actually find this back a year ago!
We're down again and forgot our found log got removed
An interesting search to be sure

We need to have a better look another time

Determined to not give up we spent a long time looking and reading previous logs. Not an easy find. Very well hidden. You don't need to get wet but you do need to scratch your belly. Keep looking.

No luck this time. Will be back!

After having finished exams last week, I spent this week planning a caching trip around Albany. I set off from home on my bike toward my newly published cache. Unfortunately some maintenance was required, and I temporarily disabled it from the phone immediately. So far, I wasn’t off to the best start, but hey, plenty ahead

A 30+km ride around Albany from Little grove, to Lower King, I managed to collect a total of 12 caches out of 15 attempted. A lovely day, and some truly superb views.

Wohoooo! Found it. After looking left, right, up, down, in out, and asking for a cheeky hint from Ian and Penny, I was finally able to locate the cache container. I was unsure as to what the flat blade screw driver was for, but hey, that doesn’t matter. Cache in hand, and log book signed. TFTC

We went looking for it but didn't find anything.

A good walk around to find the caches in the area. Heaps of birds, skinks and even a snake... But no turtles sadly. Cache is very tricky! But some creative thinking and balancing it was in hand. TFTC

Hi there mister_clyde.

We found your cache **"Tjuirtgellong"** at 11:11:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 23964).

We're staying in Albany for a few days, and today we decided to attempt a few caches near Emu Point. We found 4 caches & DNF'd 1.

Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 5m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge.

Thank you mister_clyde for adding to our adventure.

Regards

Ian & Penny

no luck in finding this one

Ahh
Tried again this year, but still couldn't find it
Maybe next time...

Done

There is nothing wrong with the cache, it needs no maintenance.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email or message centre) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

No luck

Lots of vandalism to shelter so maybe interrupted?

Hard to find

Found. Was hard to get out. Take something thin to flick it into your fingers. Leave it out a bit for the next person. Cheers.

Was an interesting find the locals helped us out great hiding place

We searched a fair bit, but there didn't seem to be a cache
Lively spot though!

I thought I'd come back today with more sets of eyes but we were still unlucky. I tried getting the kids to help but they didn't find anything for me at all.

Thanks anyway mister_clyde.

I searched for this one for about 20 minutes but had to give up when someone came to use the bird hide.

Thanks anyway mister_clyde.

We looked and looked but could not find the cache

A good struggle but help was at hand. Persevere but my coordsmade it 2m out

Fabulous hide TFTC

Searched high and low no joy

Finally found it after reading lots of logs and coming back for second try in the day TFTH FANTASTIC

Didnt find lookes for 5min

2nd June 2018, 11:48am
A quick look high & low, but no joy this time around

Dnf

Found it second time around! Great hide! Log sheet is stuck inside so couldn’t sign.

Tricky hide but found after a systematic search close to gz.favourite point from me for location and the effectiveness of the hide.

Easy to find

Not an easy one but with some help we got it. TFTC

With all the DNFs this one needs checking?? But good place to see frogs

Spent quite some time looking but could not find anything

Day Three in Albany, WA. After a big breakfast, Bettyboo3747 and I just toured a few caches around town, and then grabbed a few puzzles in the afternoon.
Our first cache after lunch.
A nice walk out along the boardwalk to the hide, but no cache could we find here today.
Thanks, Robmc.

Day 3 of our WA holiday. Robmc and I decided to spend the day caching around town. We headed towards Dog Rock, the water and the Mount this morning and then went a little further afield after lunch. Managed to find 16 for the day, but unfortunately also managed 6 DNF's, which was not so wonderful.

Our first search after lunch and just another DNF to add to the list for the day. We parked nearby and strolled across the lush green grass to the track and then onto the boardwalk. What a fantastic area that we would never have visited if not for this cache. I loved the paperparks lying around at crazy angles in the water. The water was high today and just about lapping the bottom of the bird hide. We searched for a long time but eventually had to admit defeat and continue on our way. We stopped to read the board on the way out. Certainly an interesting history to this area.

no luck here, great walk TFTH

Spent time searching, no luck. The water in the lake is quite high now

This hide was clearly beyond me – or at least maybe I just got up too early today. Anyway, we saw lots of different birds this morning all around the lake so the stroll was really nice anyway.

Thanks for showing this place!

Holy cow that was an amazing hide! Tftc

If I'd read the logs from several years ago I woukld've had a better idea where to look.

Finally found it behind all the cob webs cap was missing and pad is saturated and couldn't sign it so left a card to say we were there. TFTC

Tricky hide, Luhansk goodness it's Friday!

After a few dnf have finally found you hahah sneaky tftc

Beautiful place and great walk along the lake, but unfortunately I could not find the cache. I looked for a good 15 minutes before giving up. Thank you for making me discover this area anyway mister_clyde.

Searched for ages and had to abandon when two muggle bird watchers arrived.

22173 found

Wow wow excellent hide spot... love the view. signed the log.

Thanks to mister_clyde [^]

This cache took an age to find. Lovely location thanks mister_clyde.

Found myself in Albany today to attend the 15 Years of Caching im WA Event. I had a few caches on my must do list while I was in town, so came past here for a look.

We've been really impressed with the quality of hides down here so far and this was no exception.

TFTC.

I found your cache Tjuirtgellong on 5/03/2016 at 12:20 PM.
This is my find #2315 and find #16 today.

down in Albany for the event this weekend heading out picking up some caches with krabiboy, good find great camo really enjoyed this cache
TFTC

mister_clyde, I found your cache Tjuirtgellong on 5/03/2016 at 12:20 pm. This is my find #1267 and #13 today.

An unpronounceable cache name, but the cache certainly made itself obvious after a couple of minutes of poking around
TFTC on me bike ride around Albany today [^]

Got after a little search TFTH

Damn battery gone flat soent almost hour looking. We will be back

Well hidden good idea

Had me stumped for a while but then I spotted it! Tftc

Wow good fun a bit tricky but found it in the end don't be afraid of getting dirty

Found with Chaz and Triz on the 13th December 2015.

Yay second time lucky

First Geo with Chelz!!
Lots of fun, very interesting place. GZ perfect

Another sad ending to a search for treasure.

Found where I think it had been hidden if it is muggles have gotten to it and have taken it away

Too many muggles to look too hard!
Come back another time!

A few minutes wasted looking in the wrong spot. moved to a new location and found strait away.
CO might need to have a look at it as the lid has lost whatever was covering the large hole.
TFTC

Clever hide! Care is needed as almost dropped/lost the pencil within. Cheers TFTC

finally found it. bit damp though. lid has a hole in it.

boo hoo


I will search again

tftc

Thx for cache. Had trouble signing cache. Note pad is saturated.

Good hide tftc

Good old belly scratchin' fun!

Finally found this little blither - not without a hint from the co himself though. Had been looking in all the right places previously, just not quite there, as the gps had us looking a little further away. Today was the day to "take the place apart if we have to" and bingo, it didn't take hubby long to spot it - without taking anything apart...
Would suggest the next cacher to bring along a pencil sharpener though, unless you byo pen
Thanks for the cache mister clyde, it is a neat hide in a neat location!

PS: looks like the City has decided to change the access though, so the track close by is ploughed up and the road up above closed, bar for local traffic ...

No go for us today. Had a good look and read previous logs but still nothing.

Took awhile to find. Should have followed first instinct as that's where it was. Unfortunately part of the top is missing allowing log to get wet. TFTC

No joy!

Having done this one before and then having to re-find with fellow cacher, I feel I should be able to log it again....Lol. Great (new) hide as always and had us going for quite a while. I must admit the different angle of the Sun helped and the item inspired by a recent endoscopy proved to be useful too!!

OMG....we had to come back to this one again today as we spent what seemed like hours yesterday in fading light with no luck, but we were not put off, we were so determined to find this one as we know what Mr Clyde is like and we knew we would be in for a doozie of a cache.
We were not disappointed, what a great hide, even better because we finally found it. Yes GZ is correct and thank goodness for low tide.
Oh yes Woohoo.

So I only just found out about this strange activity called geocaching. Now you lot have got me hooked. First find and now I'm off to find some more. Cheers for the fun.

Very well hidden

Excellent hiding spot!!!!

Today we decided to explore Albany as showers were on the way according to the weather forecast.
First cache of the day, we had a good look around and eventually found this clever hide. Thankfully the coordinates were really spot on. Fav point from us, TFTH.

Great hide took us 2 trips to find this one. First time good look then second found in a reasonable amount of time. thanks

After doing Lake Seppings decided to continue around the lake and find this one
Found but log very wet but good hide
TFTC

Ooo ooooh nice one! Great hide thank you

Third time searching and found it...very nice hide! Geokid aged 6 said it was one of his favourites!

OMG, I did it!!

The 5/5 that is. (Haven't logged the find yet, but I will once I work out what to say.) I was still on a high from that achievement when I got to this cache.


And then my bubble of joy took a serious knock. Despite being with a previous finder, who let me get into all sorts of unladylike poses, I still came up empty handed. Then he joined in the search and couldn't find it either. Knowing that the hide style had changed from the original, he wasn't sure what he was looking for, so I guess we can forgive him.

He resorted to using PAF (the CO no less) for guidance. The little blighter was eventually found, and a very sneaky little hide it is too. Not sure how he pulled it off, but there it is. Mind you, my gps was still telling me 8m to gz when I did find it. I'll blame it on the weather, or how the planets were aligned, or something similar.

After signing and replacing, we headed up the road a short distance to be see a long neck tortoise meandering his way across the road towards the water. Gosh they can move fast when they don't want their photo taken.

Thanks for the smiley mister clyde, and arranging for the tortoise to be there when we were was sweet of you.

TFTC! Found on a day out around Albany to knock off as many explorer series caches as possible. Had come back to town to find this.

This was one I had put in the too hard basket for a long time given some of the logs that were written. Today was raining quite a lot so knew GZ would be clear. Made a good find in one of the first places I looked. The T rating should be upped given the go go gadget arms required and the potential to go for a drink.

Finally found after reading some recent logs. Pays not to give up too soon.

Great cache took a while but after reading some other people's logs it was easy.
