Logs
We took a drive down to Dongara today to check this cache, the Irwin River has broken through st the ocean and GZ has been flooded. We couldn't get close to GS because of the flowing river but know for certain the cache will have gone.
Time to retire this one and make way for something new.

We realy enjoyed the walk to GZ but unfortunately we were unable to find the cache. Thanks Ian&Sue, maybe next time.
Thanks. Grew legs again. Found outside hide in vegetation. Could have dropped from eaves. Have replaced within hide.
Last time we were in Australia and spend our holiday in the western part of the country – that was fantastic!
We landed in Perth and from this great town we went to the east and the north – we were on the Wave Rock, in Kalgoorlie, in Nambung Nationalpark, on the Hutt Lagoon, in Kalbarri NP and on the Shark Bay.
All the time we visited there the main attractions – but we wanted to do our hobby (geocaching), too.
So we looked for the boxes next to the highways and on all the wonderful places during our tour.
Here we could found the box very well - nice view + nice walk, we say thanks to the owner and thanks for the cache.

Found it! No pen but have photographic evidence that can be produced as required (didn't want to post a spoiler).
I enjoyed a stroll from the lookout to the hide this morning
No birds were hiding here !! [:o)]
So I concentrated on finding the cache instead.
Thank goodness for clues sometimes !!
Though this clue was a bit vague ...
... there is water on both sides and how can a six sided structure have a right hand corner ?
Didn't matter, the look up bit was all I needed and soon found a well hidden cache
TFTC and stroll.

Very good hide at the hide
Up here visiting some wonderful people, and taking a walk along the coast - prior to the week end rains and storms. Had cracking clear sunshine and blue skies with big swells thumping onto the beach.
You can tell we enjoyed this cache and all the resplendent bird life.
TFTC - ( it's in good condition )

This cache had definitely disappeared so we replaced it for Teampathfinder and confirmed its ok to log. TFTC. Great spot for a walk along the river from the lookout.
Just logging out find again after it was deleted by mistake. We found this cache on our trip to Geraldton. We had 45 finds that day with a few that took a bit of searching. Had a great time whilst in Geraldton and we will have to come back to find the caches we ran out of time to do . TFTC Ian&Sue-TeamPathfinder
Left at 3.30am from Perth to go to Geraldton for a few days, and stopped along the way to pick up some caches. Most caches were found quite quickly with a few tricky ones that took a bit of searching. Managed to find 45 on the way with only 1 DNF which I think might be missing .Looking forward to finding more tomorrow TFTC
A fast and easy find during our heritage walk through town. TFTC The Shredder and Skyryser
Not a good start to the day. Mr. Wombat was low but nothing. Nice walk on a nice day.
Cache was lying on the ground when we arrived so we hid it back at GZ in the obvious spot.

A beautiful morning for walking and managed to find a cache as well. Thanks for placing and maintaining this one. Signed log.
Took more time to follow instructions and there it was - cunningly concealed.

Out and about with pprass and &0thers on our travels. Called in to check out some local scenery. This looked like it would be a nice walk and it was. Water on both sides and you get to see some pelicans to boot. With permission pprass replaced container. Thanks for us here
Found at 10:59 AM GAFF? in the company of xambo4u and &others.
We were here 4 years and 2 months ago and clearly remember the path from the lookout to this rotunda and we clearly remember that we couldn't find the cache. This time we brought along some reinforcements to search and after another lovely walk we got down low and searched in all of the corners, but couldn't find anything. So we replaced it [^]

Did a big loop today to pick up some caches in the mid-west, with mixed results, I'm afraid. Only found 14 out of 20 caches, quite a poor result of 70%. Couldn't find this one despite confusing clues. How can you face the water, when you're in a hexagonal structure with water on 3 sides? anyway, like previous two cachers, no luck.
Another sad face today. Spent way to long grovelling for this one and had to walk away.
This one took me ages to find, as the cache wasn't quite where the hint seemed to suggest. I've replaced it as I found it however, in case that is where the CO intended it to be. The boys were busy fishing for bream nearby so at least I could hunt in peace. TFTC
Looked high & low & every single corner. Then told by my oldest to giv up. Hope for the next person that it is just hiding! Thanks for the nice view.
Found on a drive around the town. Nice walk to see the water and mouth of the river. Lots of seaweed. Tftc
This was another find in Western Australia while crossing Northern Territory and Western Australia from Darwin to Perth on Gibb River Road through the Kimberlys. During this 8500km journey we've met many nice and friendly people [^], visited countless marvelous places, saw lots of interesting local wildlife (and plants), took some 2500 pictures home and logged some 300 Caches .
We finally got this one after some sneaking and creaping at different corners .
Thanks for the cache, we've enjoyed it very much [^].

Found at 11:33:00 AM with thepope. Had a nice walk in from the lookout and as the tide was out we could even walk across the mouth of the river. Once again thepope made the find..
Thanks Ian&Sue - Team Pathfinder.

This cache was checked by a previous finder over Easter and is still in place. I have added a hint to help with finding.
This IS a sneaky, tricky cache and very well camoflagued. It was still there when we came through late February on our way to the SAMega event. We will check again on our return trip and maybe make it a bit easier to spot.
On our way from Perth to Darwin we saw many great things and places - many of them thanks to geocaching! We thank the owners for sharing their favorite spots with us by hiding their caches!
Combed the area & found some interesting stuff but no cache. Will try again next time in town.
Well done "The Cache-Shoe Nuts". We looked and looked and failed. Didn't see "The Cache-Shoe Nuts" "find" log, so just presumed the worst and gave up.
We will be replacing this cache with a brand new one in a few days - it is still available in the meantime.
Found It!! YAY! Not an easy find and it's looking a bit worse for wear but it is still definitely there. Without giving too much away....the cache is............Nah, I'll let Ian and Sue drop a clue if they think it's needed......T4TC Team Pathfinder!
We've been back for the 4th time and still can't find, thinking this one might be missing if anyone is in the area and wouldn't mind having a look for us, would be great cheers
We will pop down and take a look but it is definitely not an easy find as it is well camouflaged.
Searched thoroughly high and low on this one, but even after calling in for help I had to leave empty handed. Absolutely love the spot but I'm left with a micro sized hole in my heart as I make the long and lonely walk back to the car. Thanks for the experience!
Very chuffed that we found this one. The log is on its last legs. The cache lid is very rusted but still fits....just. Took us a while to find after looking high then low. Great view out to sea. TFTC
DNF. Nice walk along the river, just nice with a cooling breeze. We could not spot the cache though, we searched, high and low, inside and outside but no luck. Could be us or our Dongara caching efforts are not as good as in other places. We spotted a huge white bird from very close. I think it was a Sea Eagle. Very special!
A very hot walk but loved the pelicans. It took us awhile to find but luckily Mum has good eyes.
Surprisingly quick find for me and my muggle mum. Forgot pen so couldn't sign log. Tftc
Came from the Caravan park end and were disappointed not to find this. We had the area to ourselves except for a pelican.
Whenever we see structures like this (Or Military guns) we prepare for our DNF Speech.LOL.
Fantastic spot though, and enjoying our wedding Anniversary week end up here.

walked from the caravan park, across the water to gz. looked for awhile, geohubby found, well hidden. you will need to take a pen with you.thanks for the cache. beautiful spot and a lovely walk.
Enjoyed the walk along the beach to this one although there is a lot of seaweed in places. Mr Beetle found in a place where Mr B had already searched. Don't you hate that!! Thanks.
A lovely day and location but we made this one a lot harder than it should have been. Four pairs of eyes with one pair belonging to the disbelieving son in law. We were about to give up when, as luck would have it, the disbeliever found it. I think he is now converted. The container is still in fairly good shape although it took a while to get the log out. Still has room for a few more names. SL TFTH Team Pathfinder

Another night time find. Took a walk along the beach whilst some of the others in our group were fishing nearby. Had a team of eyes to help out so the cache was soon in hand.
Cache itself is showing signs of salt air wear - the lid has actually detached although it is still in place.
Ready for the Fourth Geocoin is not in residence and probably should be marked as missing by the cache owner as it's been gone since may last year.
Thanks for the cache and hunt, Ian&Sue.

We took a nice walk on the beach where nobody else has been exept us. It took a while until we found the cache but we finally made it. Dropped a small trackable item into it. Hope it will find its way to New Zealand.
TFTC!

Nice walk along the river to get to this cache. Easy find and enjoyable views. TFTC Brocky5

Found it after about 10mins searching... **Note: We would recommend replacing the cache container as this one was extremely hard to open (had rusted shut)... Signed log & left frog
Thank you Ian and Sue, that was a great cache. We pretended to be birdwatching when muggles appeared.
DNF at 10.30am. We enjoyed the walk along the beach with the waves crashing just metres away. We then started looking and we found nothing. Couldn't even find a place for a tricky hide!
Too good for us - thanks Ian&Sue.

Lovely spot good walk lots of mugglers out and about might had somthing to do with the sunshine great day out left travel bug USM130 and small boomeranga
Not today.
Looked high & low to no avail.
Its either gone walkabout or we were looking in wrong spot.
Thanks for the nice walk.

This was not such an easy find for us but success is just as sweet! Long walk along the beach followed by a longer hike back through the sandhills. TFTC.
Nice walk but had to dodge bees through one section. An easy enough find though log book a little difficult to extract from the container. SL TFTC
