Old Salts Bunbury, Western Australia, Australia
By Manxmann on 18-Feb-09. Waypoint GC1MTBN

Unfortunately "Old Salts" appears to have been muggled. It's nowhere to be found. RIP !

Old Salts seems to have been muggled, and is no longer to be found.

Third time looking for this one without success. Will persist. Thanks for the hunt.

Fair bit of equipment there at the moment for the work on the jetty. Will go back when it's been moved into place.

Dropped by to pick up mover tb.

2nd for today 6:45AM great spot TNLN SL TFTH

Dropped by to swap trackables.

This was find number 6 of 17 on a day trip from Albany to Bunbury return.

Couldn't see the trackable in there that was supposed to be there.

Nice easy find even with the fisher people around.

Took bungy cord, left packet of beads, pair of earrings and 2 TBs.

Found with bikemad

Spied out of the corner of my eye as the GPSr was telling me to keep walking past hehe. Cheers from Sydney. Nice little spot.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Perth 10.18. It took two visits to avoid people taking a break nearby, but it was in a logical position and a great area. Thanks.

A bit of seaching but we found it after reading other logs. Took nothing, signed the log and left our calling card.TFTH & TFTC

A bright moment in a horrible, dull old day. Cold and sprinkling but got the car TB. The other one was not there. Of course, I was by myself hunting until about 5 fisherpeople showed up so had to wait for them to go by. As usual no-one took any notice; I'm not sure how any of these neighbourhood watch programs work!!

Visited it today, enjoyed the trip and the view! Found it very quickly. Grabbed the Licking Crocodile!

Just to log the Peugot - I still can't do it mobil with the iPhone.

Found this cache with El Campo and SophieBol, who's new to geocaching but very successful TFTC

This is a good one. Very cool location! The TB Mini Bearing has gone already and SophieBol grabed the Crock, TheKlaass left our Racing car - bye, Bye Peugeot! TST LST. TFTC

nice location for a cache,lots of muggles around

Nice easy find, lots of muggles in the area so had to be discret. Took Bearing TB, TFTC

Nice place, easy find on our tour though southwest of Australia, 8650mi away from our home coordinates.
Thanks for hiding

Checked "Old Salts" yesterday, it is in its' original position.

Left Bearing TB took nothing. Beware cache has moved.....not too hard to work out where it is now ( grease on hands) but dont be tempted to cross the fence into dangerous territory. Thanks for the cache. TB was logged under group name ( The GBKs)

Found yesterday using individual name. Dropped travel bug, but it was found under the team name The GBKs so logging to show TB dropped......am I confused....maybe maybe not....anyway that should all be sorted now. Thanks for the cache.

A nice easy one today, TFTC

Very nice area. I enjoyed this one a lot!

Well we didn't think we were going to be able to do this one because a ute was parked at GZ with the occupant reading a paper & looking straight at it. However a smooth pass and it was retrieved and taken back to the car signed log and returned under the guise of taking photographs TFTC&H Manxmann

GREAT SPOT TFTC

Found this cache near a 99 year old fellow - I hope he lives to see 100!

The GPS took me a bit off location while the Mrs walks up and simply pulled out the container. Find #12 to end the day. TFTH, nice spot.

Nice and easy...no muggles around. TFTH

Easy find with Allys Angels

My geosister walks up and says "is this it?"t4th

Stopped at GZ and the youngest said "is this it" a real quick cache in a very fresh spot. TFTH

If anyone finds a scout pocket knife can you please contact us. Many thanks 2+4

Great location on a hot day TFTH Took nothing Left Necklace.

Great historic location got a real feeling of history while serching for the cache. Thanks for bringing this tourist here!

Had a good look but muggles in boat pulled up to fish.

nice quick find. a place i use to drop a line in at. Found by Mr Macca. TFTC

The Jetty is run down and needing repairs it looks like they started but then stopped. It would be an expensive undertaking to refurbish it but we hope it gets going again as it would be excellent to come back and walk along it.
We sat and watched a bulk carrier steam into port. They are huge and a bit scarey. How do you stop an object that big is you take a wrong turn?
Thanks...we liked that area of town it still has the old home town feel about it

1815 - Found during a run down to Bunbury....

I'm usually not that good at these types of finds - but the size and some karma led me straight to the cache in the light rain...

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Location of GZ afforded us a closer view of "Rhapsody of the Seas" cruise ship. It also allowed the locals to view the ship also as well as several fishermen on the adjacent rocks. As such, extracting the cache from it's hidding place & replacing it later required a bit of care, but with two of us, was quickly done. Signing the log etc was easy - did it in the car away from prioring muggle's eyes. TFTC Now for a trip north.

A nice view from this location of Rhapsody of the Seas in port. Unfortunately, there were quite a lot of muggles also wanting a look at the boat so traffic in the area was quite heavy. Still, cache was soon discovered and extracted. We had to take it back to the car to complete the logging duties then wait for an opportune moment to replace it in its hiding spot. TN. Left a gold pirate coin. Also grabbed the Travelling Gnome TB to continue its journey. TFTC.

Again very windy, but an easey find. Took a snake a left little bungy and gnome TB, TFTC

Sometimes a nice easy find is just what you need. It certainly was tonight after a fruitless 30 minutes picking up pebbles on the other side of the water. Interesting spot too - thanks for bringing us here

The wind was so strong we were nearly blown off. TNLN TFTC

very windy

i think i spent more time working out how the thing works rather than looking for the cache..
Just happy to be there..

Found with wot and cuzza. Another one for our 08-08-2009 geocaching bunbury trip! There were a whole bunch of western power workers hanging around, and we had to wait for them to move on, but as they did I spotted the cache cleverly tucked away. The old salt is a lovely old piece of machinery, it looks like it'd recently been sandblasted and repainted too. Thanks for the cache!

found with wot and devar. tftc!

quick find... nice views

GPS had a "moment" with this one, but another good one

All is well
Didnt take T/B so still waiting
Cheers

Funny place, nice vieuw, take out a snake, put in a anchor.

Found ok after a snoop around. Geo-grandson saves the day!
Picked up a German G/coin which does not show in inventory yet so will leave logging for a coule of days to allow it logged.
Dropped off Princess T/B to continue travelling.
Took 2 train tokens, scuba toy and anchor key ring.
Left toy car, 2 souveneir spoons and a toy ring.

Mrs cache seems to be getting better than I am, i had looked in to this one, and didn't see it. mrs smartypants looks and spots it straight away.
T Eifel tower and chinese coins,
L ID retractor, and two Tasmanian tokens, Don Riveer, and Tazzie Devil.

Last time my gpsr didn't tell me where to go and searched at the wrong place. R0gue found it in a matter of few seconds. TNLN. Thanks for the cache

Having crossed off one of Varuna's nemesis caches we continued on to this one, which she had also previously DNF'd. I arrived before her, and walked over and spotted the cache immediately.
I guess it's the luck of the draw sometimes There were a few muggles about, fishing etc, so we had to carefully pick our spot to replace the cache.
No swaps, thanks for the cache!

Very tranquil this morning. cache located after a short search. Thanks Manxmann

After a bit of a walk around the GPS decided it was going to play silly buggers, so a quick read of the description and logs had us cache in hand.

An easy find in an obvious place. Thought we may have had to crane our necks looking for this one

Fun cache, beautiful area

Nice cache, a few muggles around though.

got it
t=casino chip
l=electrical tape

Logging this find after our golfing trip to Bunbury. Thought this one would be a long trek like Australind Groyne but we drove right up. Searched around a bit but kept coming back to the obvious place and found it when we tried harder. Took two small coins, left Casino Chip. TFTH

An easy find and an interesting array of items for swaps. T4TC. Took 'Purple Hat Duck' TB. TNSL Very difficult to avoid the grease.

Dropped back to release Purple Duck Hat TB as it was time for it to get circulating again. Found Nemo TB and took that one.

TTF. Foiled again by manxmann - we had scoped out this very location last weekend and were preparing a cache to return with - like minds! Great spot, beware the grease trap!
Strange about our calling card being in the cache already - maybe we sleep-cache and don't realise it!!
Left: Nemo TB

We found this one this afternoon however we can't claim FTF as TeamBeanDare beat us to it. Also saw a Richlink card inside but no log entry?

Very nice spot on a late afternoon. I haven't been here since I was a little tacker and used to fish from the old jetty.

TNLNSL Thanks for the hunt!

Yahoo *FTF* this place has seen better days. Thanks for the cache.
