Vk6PA, you are right, this cache has been muggled. I notice a broken limb near the stump has been marked with fluoro paint. Perhaps the Shire are planning to remove it ?
In any event, "Stumped" has met a grissly end after being placed December 2008.
We won't replace it at this stage but may look at a new spot - maybe without the barking dogs !
Thanks everyone.

Couldn't find due to some rude cow at 2 Castlereagh taking photos of us while we were trying to find it. Saying she's taking photos of everyone because of bushfires!
Found it !!!! Was quicker than I thought, good sized cache. Damm dogs in house just go nuts barking so hard to be unnoticed. Took nothing, left nothing. May returned to exchange items

Out for a hunt with whiteslea. Took a bit to figure out how to get in. Tftc. Tnln. Container in good condition
Took the hard way in, but soon spotted likely hiding spot. Tomatoesrule did the signing honours. TFTC
Rach2 spotted it first but I retrieved it. Nice and quiet today everyone must have been away for Easter. TFTC
Went out today to pick up a few caches, that we had missed on previous visits.
Try to search quietly, but muggle mutts near by, never let up barking the whole time we were there.
A quick find, signed and replaced. T:N, L: dinosaur.
Many thanks for the cache, manxmann.

Found while taking Kira (geodog) for a walk. Dogs in the nearby house barked alot and as early morning I tried to hide Kira from them as much as possible so they didn't bark at her. Looked around behind the tree first so dogs couldn't see me but no luck. So moved around to the front and there it was. Quickly signed log and got out of there accompanied by much barking from these annoying dogs. TFTC
This was our 8th cache find in a caching run of 12 Finds & 1 DNFs today.

This is a nice combination of bushland and parkland. A fairly quick find and then onto more Southern searching. Dropped off Before I Die GC.
Thanks for the cache manxmann.

Soaking wet and freezing cold in the dark with a rapidly fading torch, we decided to walk from Millars walk. TFTC.
Once at GZ it was a quick find. Didn't have trouble with the noisy dog until I was leaving.
Thanks manxmann for the cache.
Thanks manxmann for the cache.
Made a fairly quick find here today. As mentioned earlier the nearby dogs are very noisey but not enough to spoil the experience.

A bit of push bike riding today to pick up the caches around Mill bridge. Very touchy (barks a lot) dogs in the house nearby. Approach from the path further back from the road to avoid their notice. Retrieved racer trackable. Took pack of erasers and left combo lock. TFTC
Found this one in the dark. Nifty little hideaway. Thanks for bringing me here. Dropped a TB. Tftc
Jnr Geocacher identified a possible location for this find, but did not feel game enough to uncover it. Mum and dad Geocacher kept looking until mum Geocacher climbed over the log, picked up a stick and bravely uncovered the suspected location to find the cache! Great spot. TNLN. TFTH. (the thread at top of container has been cracked, lid does not screw on- or at least it can be pulled off rather than unscrewed - not sure if you knew manxmann - cache still seems secure tho).
Out for a 2 day caching adventure with AndrewSWRT. Hitting the Australind and Collie area to clear the map and add to the tally. Out to crack the 500 mark.

Out for a 2 day caching adventure with SPN WRC aiming for Australind and Collie.
Nice park , there seems to be quite a few in millbridge but they all lack seating, a quick find, TFTC.
Out on another day of caching with skippy 46, Kristybelle and ben was 1992. we decided to do another run to bunbury and pick up a few on the way as well. a quick find but the dogs nearby did a lot of barking TFTH
Had a nice short walk along the path but the had to go thru the bush which proved difficult as we couldn't see an easier way in. Cache was located quickly and I scoped out a, maybe, quicker way out but the little dog in the house could see us and wouldn't stop yapping. So we decided to go out the same way we came in.

Thanks for the hide. Found on Christmas Day taking a quick walk from the family.
A nice park. Fought off a few trees to get to this one but got there. Took yoyo left snake.
** Screw top part on canister is breaking off in parts but does still works

Our first cache! Very exciting for us though I think the owners of those dogs hate us. We left a hacky sack. Thanks!
Great ride to the cache on the moped. Dog alerted and had to wait for it to settle. Muggles playing in the park.
It would appear that recent sforms may have slightly effected the access to this cache. could spy a silhouetted figure in the dark and knew that it was my target. pushed through the few covered Hoylake of a few horizontal trees and made my way to GZ. located cache, signed log and took TB. trashed out a bottle that was lying on the cache!

Found this one on Mother's Day. Drizzling with rain, but was keeping the muggles away, so good day for caching. I was rewarded here by seeing the cutest, littlest frog - it was so tiny. Signed the log and replaced the cache before heading off to the next cache. Thanks

Nice quick little find. Ditto about the dog barking. Could hear him as I was riding down the street after the find. TFTC
Passing through today to stay at Eaton/Australind before heading back to Perth.
Lucky we had our new tomtom with us with up to date maps to get us around in this new area.
On arrival here there was a council worker on his quad bike spraying the grass. He looked a sight, riding the bike with his helmet on and crawling over the grass at 2km/hr.
Walked past him to find the cache, and grab the TB. Then as we journeyed on to another cache he came riding out of the depot again. think he must have refilled his pest spray and been on the way back. Haha.

Nearby dog heard me rustling in the bushes. Fortunately a brief visit. Thanks for the cache manxmann.
found quickly some nice small swaps but had to get out of there fast as we were standing right on an ants nest! TFTC:)
Off the beaten track a little, could hear many frogs from here today. Nice. Took pirate coin, left Diabetes Walk keyring. TFTC
We decided to seek this one on the way to the shops. Nice position, although the new house being completed on the left (looking toward the fence) provides full view of seekers and the cache. No muggles or tradespeople there today. TFTC - kids liked this one, the first they've found with a kitty. They were discussing the sorts of things they might trade next time we come across such a cache.
stopped here for morning tea
took bracelet, and godo
left yoyo, elephant, parachute man

A long day of caching on the way to and around Bunbury ...
Had me stumped for a bit but once I read the cache description, I found this quickly. TFTC!
