No luck, but didn't try too long given the other recent logs. Lovely day to be out though!

Sorry I can no longer maintain this hide.
It goes missing weekly and it is to much to handle.
I suggest it be archived to open up the spot.

Archived

Obvious where it would have been but not there. Can anyone confirm if it is there?

Couldn't find this. Hunted high and low but to no avail. Seems I'm not alone!!

I will not be able to maintain this cache any more. If the owner is still active email me and I will discuss plans. Other wise it needs to be archived

Looked for ages when boats left. Kids were disappointed. We'll come back again.

No joy

It beat me

No joy here today either.

After much searching I checked the hint which resulted in a thorough search around a particular landmark but with no luck. I widened the diameter of the search but still came up empty. I will return to retry another day.

A good search of the likely areas failed to reveal the cache

I looked quite a bit, but thanks to the hint I found it at last. TFTC and greetings from Switzerland

Pretty sure it's missing

Wasn't able to find it even though we looked up and down the posts. very tricky and lots of muggles around making it awkward and hard to be discrete

Pretty quick find once I resorted to checking logs, and realised it was a nano. TFTC - perfectly placed for waiting for the ferry.

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Found

Found with dojo but no word on the lid

Looks like it's missing. Don't have a spare on me to replace I'm afraid.

I couldn't find this geocache, maybe I'll have better luck next time!

I couldn't find this geocache, maybe I'll have better luck next time!

Have a spare nano on me and have placed it here this evening. Hope this helps x

I've replaced the cache twice already and i think the only thing that won't go missing is a magnetic nano. i haven't got any at the moment so please consider the cache disabled until i get some. when i do i will post another note

On our first sweep past. We will sweep again.

We spent a long time looking around the statue and even around other statues in the line and couldn't find it. Either very well hidden or MIA. Can you confirm it is indeed there and give us a hint please?
Thanks!!!

Spent a little bit of time searching in and around statue. Lots of muggles around and couldnt find cache easy enough. Thought we covered whole statue though.

I replaced cache and will maintain it if CO will not. Cache is still a mint tin

17 needs maintenance logs and one owner maintenance.
Cache is not being maintained by owner.
Time to go

Not there, needs to be replaced please.

Searched around the statue but nowhere to be seen will wait till someone finds till I hunt again

Pretty solid and convincing clue but no cache.

Searched Venus and Friends thoroughly then widened search without success

We looked,went for coffee at the markets, looked again less muggles still dnf. Enjoyed touring the visiting tall ships though. Cjmr

A bus load of muggles arrived just as I reached Ground Zero. Will try another time!

Found after looking really stupid for around 5mins because the coordinates were a tad out. As we have up Pete read something which gave us a clue! If only we spent that time reading rather than bum up in the air searching. Oh well this GeoFamily had a lively day at Freo today:) thanks

Unfortunately there was someone parked right in front of GZ so i couldn't search without being obvious! Maybe next time!

Cool found the cache after a trip on the ferry but I could not see the word in the lid.

Used a caching tool to locate and then had to carefully time the snatch and return as even on a quiet day this area is busy. Very satisfying to get this one undetected.

Found after a night out in freo. Tftc

Geo daughter found this one after a great night at the event nearby, tftc

My first cache

Came reasonably early to avoid muggles, tyftc

Found at 12.55 Took a bit of time but finally success! TFTC

Out on a caching day around Freo today with Mistraluna, who came armed with a replacement for this cache. After signing the log, it was replaced according to the hint, somewhat distant from the given coords, according to our GPSs. Thanks for the cache the robots.

Out today up Freo way with urch in the navigator's seat. From reading previous logs, I suspected that this one was missing, so came prepared. We gave this gz a good search, but came up empty handed. We then looked for the obvious spot for the cache to be and placed a replacement, as per the listings description. Hope that earns us our smiley face. Thanks the robots

Took coords at Venus and Friends: S 32° 03.160 E 115° 44.532

No luck looking for this one. Three of us looked for about 10 minutes in the obvious spots.

The cache has gone I'm afraid....

No container, magnets or paper was found, att required.

No joy with this one today

Found @ 15:55!

In reality, I only found the magnets as mentioned in previous logs.

I was planning to reinstate the container and today from my pack of spares, but realised too late that I have still not returned them to my caching kit!

Will try to repair this cache (if the CO does not) the next time I visit, as it seems fairly popular...

Found it

good little mission, watch for muggles. tftc

The GPS gave anothr spot, but we found the statue before so we found it. THX

No luck for me

We trusted the coordinates of our GPS. But I think the coordinates are a bit off. However - with the hint we searched for a while. Then we (Liz Loggy & Family) had it in our hands. THX for showing us this nice spot on the way to the Museum.

TB visit

TFTC #226

A+M12345, actual living in Beijing/China, now on vacation because of Chinese New Year

Found and signed the paper before leaving for Rotto this morning.
Would be nice to have the proper container.
TFTC

Its ... gone

didn't find it Found the sculture and look in between it but there was nothing anywhere to find

Tftf, magnet and paper only

Yep gotta say, needs a bit of attention. Also found the two magnets and bit of paper - no clues. Thanks robots, hopefully you can get this up and running again.

Cache missing and only 2 magnets with some ripped Rottnest Express brochure in the middle. Clue is missing as well. Owner intervention needed ASAP!

This cache needs urgent maintenance. The mint tin is missing and the clue you need to the final is missing as well. The log between the magnets is a piece of brochure. Please fix this ASAP!

Find #184. Found the magnets with the piece of ripped off brochere in between. This cache needs urgent maintenance. The mint tin is missing and the clue you need to the final is missing as well. Please fix this ASAP! TNLNSL TFTC

Out on a New Years Eve caching run in Freo. Cache is not there and instead are two magnets with a nit of paper in the middle. Missing the clue as well. Owner intervention is definitely required! TFTMWABOBITM (Thanks For The Magents With The Bit Of Brochere In The Middle)

Found the two magnets and added our names to the tiny log sheet.
No muffles around- too hot to stand around!!
Some maintenance is in order.

no luck, searched every possible hides on the pole, then extended the search to surrounding... still got nothing

Disappointed I couldn't find it. I was in the right spot. Ran my hands over entire sculpture but no luck. Could it have been muggled?

Tracking TB visit

Found whilst on holiday from Norway with my family. TFTC.

The hint was pretty clear and we found two large magnets but no box. We added a piece of paper as a log but it needs looking at.

Found two magnets but no box so we added a log sheet not protected against the elements. Maybe if will allow others to log but will need replacing soon.

Had a great trip to Rottnest. TFTC.

Found magnets with nothing attached....looked very suspiciously like it was the work of muggles

easy find on a quite friday arvo TFTC SL

TFTC!

Found it. Had no pen so couldn't log. Not many muggles.

Our last geocache in Australia for this trip, but we shall return.

Does this cache have/need a magnet?

Found this Cache on the way from Darwin to Perth on our Honeymoon. TFTC greetings from Switzerland

Mimi was the first who discovered the cache after a short search. Thank you for showing us this nice location.

During her stay in Fremantle Mimi found this cache easily and was happy about her found.

Yay after riding around rotto we enjoyed this cache at the end

#602 There were so many people near GZ today. But that also provided a "cover" as we didn't stick out hanging out at GZ. Spotted the object in the hint and soon enough found the cache. TFTC!

Nice easy find.

Nice easy find on a day trip from Warwick. TFTC.

This was once a faster fund.
Beautiful art there at the harbor is.

TFTC

Yay got it. It was on ground so I put in place. Nice muggle free stormy morning.

Muggles parked right in front of it.

Came back here and with the muggles gone (replaced by different muggles, but a little further away) the find was easily made. TFTC!!!

Found it,

Time: 14.00

Here we are in pretty Fremantle, ready for another round of exploring and caching.

Lovely Venus was first on the list and she didn't disappoint. The cache needs a new log book as there are scraps if paper being used, and the magnets are no longer on the container.

TNLNSL. TFTC

Magnets missing. Cool spot TFTC

Magnets still there but no cache.
