No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

As both the caches required to get the coordinates for this cache have been archived, surely this one needs to go too? Not my call, but obviously the only way to find it is to make contact with a prior finder which is not really the intention of geocaching. Thanks.
 
01-Jan-12
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm 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 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

Although we didn't find either of the previous caches, we phoned a friend and got the clues for this final. A short walk and a quick find. We even didn't fall down into the river!
Nice spot.
Thanks, Robmc.

A nice stroll along the banks of the lovely Swan RIver to get this one.
A few people out on the water enjoying the great weather.
The cache was found after a brief search.

A quick stroll for an easy find. Number 100!! Whooo!! ^_^ Great cache, thank you! TNLN

Picked up today on a very pleasant early morning on the Swan. Nice hide. TFTC

A great series - In Perth for a couple of weeks and it's great to get around all of these spots. I'm not giving anything away if I say I didn't see a horse. Clear skies from TeamAstro. [^]

Had the bits to this a couple of months ago and came here today in the fading light with my brother. Was very happy to bump into an old school mate along the way, and he asked what we were doing but I don't think we converted him

We looked at ground zero for a minute and then I threw all my valuables into my caching bag just in case I fell in, but we climbed through the railing and found the cache in the first place we looked. TFTC!
 
01-Dec-10
I solved the puzzle earlier in the week and decided to visit the GZ in the afternoon. However, an ambulance was parked at an event just near the site; its two officers resting nearby just in case something happened. Not wanting to arouse their suspicion, I decided to come back later. Thankfully, my brother decided to join me after he finished work, and we returned to the site. We found the cache in the first spot we looked. TFTC

this was a good hide, though it was a bit of a hike from the other caches
i managed to stay up top but did have to retrieve my phone which nearly went for a dip in the river

Finished the series - fun! Nice view of river. T: toy car. L: whiteout. Also took Princess Cosmo (hitchhiking card) to assist her on her way. TFTC!
 
22-Sep-10
After getting the coords for this cache I stopped off and for the life of me could not find it. When I twigged that I was looking at the unedited GZ and not the real one, I made my way to the right spot. Once there, fisherman within 20m put me off so I came back. On the second go around I managed to find the cache quite easily.

After being at gz two weeks ago it was a quick find today. I don't know what I did there before.
Anyway, thanks for the nice series and the cache.

Got the information for this one a couple of weeks ago, but haven't been out that way since.
Found while my son slept in the sling on my front and my daughter stayed on the path. Was a bit difficult, but we found it in the end. Unfortunately the Cache notes got blown away and I could not go after them, so they are gone - Sorry.
Daughter chose a red ball & left a toy car. Grabbed the Kiwi TB to move on elsewhere. TFTH Smile

Up the hill, down the hill then up again!! FINALLY found it! TNLNSl thanks for a great multi!!
 
27-Dec-09
This was cool. Gathered the clues and let google earth show us the spot to look... Fortunately we know the area or this might have been tricky... Cache was well hidden in a tricky spot yet, truthfully, only a meter-ish from the path.. None the less one of Thaboyz did have a fall getting to this one... Crumbly ground led to a small amount of blood shed but a great find. Yay!!!

Took awesome angel pendant and 10,000 note... Have seen similar angels in the area... Will re-cache if they have a mission.

Left manga toy and bouncy ball...

Thaboyz

also should mention that there are muggles fishing everywhere at night around here... one of them appeared out of the darkness directly below the cache... fortunately most of the fisher people around here are too keen on their 'catch' to interfere with anyone else 'finding' theirs!

This is the first Mystery Cache I am able to solve in Australia! Thank you for this lovely cache in a lovely setting of the Swan River. Greeting from Geocaching Malaysia in Facebook.

We don't normally do these number-gathering caches but are very glad we decided to do this one. Magnificent location, nice hiding place - who could want more. Thanks Robots
 
12-Oct-09
Found the two clue caches a long long long time ago, but ofcourse lost my records of them so had to re-find both today. (Both are in good condition.)

After that finally got this one crossed of the list, even if I did nearly nose dive into the swan!!

Another great walk along our beautiful river to this cache. Bit of a tricky retrieval, but soon had it signed and replaced. Thanks for another hunt, Robots.
 
05-Sep-09
Fixing this one up.
 
05-Sep-09
Have been thinking about the progression of our cache placing, and realised I prefer the idea of either a well put together cache or a GZ that is very interesting, or ideally always having both.

The location is still very nice; however the earlier container was a cheap plastic sandwich container, and so we visited today and replaced it with a nicer, camo painted 400ml Sistema.

We hope you like this new, improved cache. Smile

Collected the info we needed without any problem then it was off to the cache. Part of our near midnight caching escapade with AlliedOz. We startled a fisherman near gz. Cache found easily enough . Thanks the_robots Big GrinBig Grin
 
24-Apr-09
You have to love caching at night! Cool So little traffic, much cooler and not many muggles.
Fishermen might disagree when they are caught like a rabbit in the beam of a Led Lenser P7 (A torch..so bright... think x-files bright)
I think he might be regaining his vision around now.

Nice little Multi, 3 caches for the price of one almost.
Found with Liz and Bruce.

Cheers

Found easily after watching the boats on the river nearby whilst having a break from work.

Thanks for the cache.
 
07-Apr-09
I didn't have the listing with me (generating the Cachemate file is all well and good, but it's even more useful if you put it on the bloody PDA!) so I took a punt as to how the numbers I'd collected would be used.
The first (and most obvious) combination looked sensible, and so it turned out to be.

There were workmen putting in another concrete path here, but I don't know why it's here since the existing path is quite new and only a couple of metres away... Must go back in a couple of months and see what their plans were.

Hey! This is a nice park. We haven't kayaked here yet so we'll probably be back. I wonder how busy it is on the weekend.
Thanks for the fun 'multi'. I like the smilies for each stage...Big Grin
 
22-Mar-09
Great mystery cache. The preceding caches were cunningly hidden. And the cache was well placed. I scared a muggle, though, as I climbed from the bushes. She was not a happy chappy. Not sure why. She'd gone a ways down the track before I came out.

Anyway, TNLNSL, TFTC.
 
22-Mar-09
Took the lower path and had to climb up again. Left 'Eric the Landrover' geocoin. great series, thank you for the effort. TN

Last cache for the day. I almost look the lower path along the shore but was glad I didn't when I found the cache.

I can remember having a few pub lunches at the Ascot, I didn't know it had closed down, could have done with a cold one to finish off the days caching.

TNLN thanks for the series.

This was the last one to find in this series. really quite easy to find with them all being so close to the city.
Took Lion of Africa

As with the two caches leading up to this find, our GPS displayed around 15m in error compared to the stated co-ords. So we had to really hunt about but of course found it in the end. Nicely hidden.
Look out for the Kamakazi Mozzies!!!

Easy find once the muggles were out of the way. This was our first multi-cache and we really enjoyed it. Was nice to see a new part of town and spend some time by the river.

Left details in logbook. Took nothing.

Accompanied with Varuna. Found the cache at 3.10pm. We enjoyed walk along to the cache and lovely view the river as well. Took Aussie Geocoin. SL. Thanks The_Robots for organising the cache and hunt.
 
07-Feb-09
A nice and quick find. Everlasting used her body to shield in the view of 2 muggles sitting in their ambo whilst quickly fetched, signed, and returned to its hidden. They seem to take no notice of what we were doing as they were busily chatting. There were no muggles on the footpath in sight. Enjoyed view the river in the beautiful weather. Thanks to the_robots for the cache that we enjoyed doing it.

WanderingAus wandered by and made a quick GAFF 1 find in my old stomping ground. In the early 1960s I used to fish from the bank up and down this stretch of the river, but there was no path then, and no nearby park either. Sad to see the Ascot Inn is now closed, but nice to see the park with the BBQs and picnic tables.

My find No 1154, LCC, T "Filly" toy (because I couldn't fit it back into the containerTwisted), L flying horse and pair of dice, grabbed Tristan & Katia TB (ref = TB11QGY), dropped Australia 2007 GC (ref = TB1MKNY), also dropped my WanderingAus Happy New Year 2008 Gold GC in for a visit before grabbing it back again.

*Recommended* *Overall Experience: 3*

Required information in hand, we found the cache without any problems. Retrieved Pilot 172 GC and dropped off Tristan & Katia TB. We then had our morning cuppa in the park next to the river. Thanks for the cache Robots.

I found the other two parts to this cache then headed straight over. I was a bit worried when directly opposite where the arrow was pointing was parked an ambulance. Thankfully the ambo was fast asleep in the front seat with no sign of a partner. I quickly retrieved the cache, signed the log, took the GC's, Left 2x GC's, replaced the cache and was then quickly on my way. TFTH.

Woohoo!! FTF @ 9pm Big Grin

I completed the 2 preliminary caches this afternoon, and had a hunch about what was going on, so I put a few numbers into Google Earth, and this was actually the most likely spot I came up with. Tonight I was on the PC when this cache was published so after confirming the coordinages I immediately raced out the door, without reading the rest of the cache page and noting the size of the cache, or taking the clue with me.

At GZ there were a lot of people fishing, and one guy in particular was right below where I wanted to search. I spent a bit of time casually looking around, but didn't find the cache, and couldn't search too hard as he was only metres away. On returning to the path I walked straight into the railing of the fence, so in defeat and with a huge lump appearing on my forehead I gave in and went home to read the cache page.

Got home and read the page, got the size of the cache, and checked the clue. Well, that can't be too hard I thought, so I jumped back in the car and headed off again. Happily all the fisher-people had cleared off by now, and I had my torch with me, and found the cache very quickly.

Left Newfoundland GC, thanks for the series robots!
