ATM Madness # 1 Wanneroo, Western Australia, Australia
By schmidhot on 09-Feb-10. Waypoint GC23TDC

So sad

I suggest this one be archived as there has been no response to the maintenance requests.

6 months of DNFS. Thought I might as well try while in the area. No luck though.

Can we pls check this one? . Looked a few times now on our very early morning walks . No muggles and no cache either

2nd time trying. Has this cache been muggled?

3rd time looking now and still no luck are we sure it's still there ....

I've heard that cheats never prosper but I've been honest enough on this cache with 4 prior searches so time for a different approach.

Tried in low peak muggle time and no luck.

We think possibly smuggled by muggle.

Out on a caching run in NOR territory with OOH YEH & MNS13.

A quick find here as co ords were spot on. Not many people around on a Sunday either, well in this particular spot there weren't

TFTH schmidhot

Out on a day of caching north of the river with skippy 46 and MNS13. We had a great day with 27 finds and only 1 DNF that appeared to be missing. We found a variety of well constructed caches so i will be handing out quite a few well deserved favourite points.
We were quite lucky there wasnt to many muggles about close to GZ and we found the cache in the first place we looked TFTC schmidhot

In the area today with Skippy46 & Ooh Yeh trying to bump up our find tallies. We had a very productive day with 27 finds and 1 DNF.

Nice quick find made here. All while suffering from hunger pains and yummy food smells. I think lunch might be called for!

Thanks for the cache schmidhot

This one has been on my radar for ages but each time i stop passed there are too many people around. The answer, night caching. Waited for shops to close and everyone to leave and then it was a quick grab and sign. Tftc.

New cache positioned this morning the old one has been muggled again
Please use stealth for this one there is alot of muggle traffic in this area and return cahce to origanal position
Thanks

All good to go again after new cache placed this morning

I think this is worth a look. no luck today on a visit to the bottle o

Will check on tonight

This is my fifth visit to GZ since I logged a DNF on Boxing Day 2011. On each of the 4 prior visits, it has turned out that there hasn't been a cache to find at GZ. I wonder whether it's the same story today????

2 searches now of the likely structures at GZ have been fruitless. Hopefully it's still here.

This cache is sure proving to be a thorn in my caching side. No joy today.

too many muggles around on a Saturday morning so didn't manage to find

Great cache found on a quiet night with Dmac5

Nice cache fund with coh3n cheers

TFTC

Clinkars sat down near the spot then i started looking and eventually i got it

Been driving close to this for way too long before grabbing! This a home made or purchased design? I like it! TFTC

Tftc

Yaaay last time it wasnt here lol

Awesome find! Stealth was used! LOL
Magnet glue isn't holding
TFTC

We were stealth like lol

Magnet dropping out

Yay we found it, windy evening out and lovely benches to sit at and muggle watch... Tftc

Previous logger must be trippin' [:o)] No clear found log since July 2012. CO needs to archive or replace.

Original cache has been muggled so i have replaced the cache again with exact same as original cache happy caching all

Is it still here?

YAAAY!!! Look at the trees

Yaaaay! Look at the trees

Keeps loggin this one not the one I'm at

Searched between 10:50pm and 11:10pm on a balmy Boxing Day evening. Still no sign of a cache so I'll keep watching the listing.

Sorry, edited immediately. DNF.

Second visit (almost a year apart!) and sadly no success today either. Hopefully it'll be third time lucky!

Out with burkeyloi to show him the ropes at caching. Just killing some spare time whilst near by.
DNF for us. Will have to return at a muggleless hour. TFTC

Found

Found after waiting for muggles to move
TFTC

Looked long and hard without success. Spotted by other cachers. I will return.

Nice quick found, tftc

Nice quick find. Tftc

Was with GHFB, TfTC.

Found after being given a little help from FelixII (well a lot of help really!!) who I met up with a little earlier in the evening. Had searched for this one on Saturday and GPS was all over the place and I was attracting attention from passers by so decioded to abandon search. (Signed log RKG to save space)
56th cache in Australia whilst on a short holiday from Wales. TFTC

Walk past this one every day took ages to find, found yesterday and realised I had taken tweezers out when flew last so had to come back today

Pipped at the post....Glad to find...Beware of Drunken Pirates..

Ha ha Black Rat beat you too it - took us less than 30 seconds!

ok it's back on the new cache is now in place so game on fellow geo's

hey there fellow cache's as it happens the muggles have struck again and ATM #1 has been muggled I am currently working on replacing the cache as it is one of our favorites so stay tuned for a new release

Happy Caching

No luck here....Searched many, many, many times with no luck. Teamed up with The Purple Pirate57 and still couldn't find it. Hopefully we are wrong. Will monitor blog just in case.

just got back from the goldcoast will check on cache asap

Think this one is long gone....

Searched all the seats in this area (even those 20m from my GZ). So either the tin's not on a seat or it's vanished. Certainly there's plenty of ATM's though!

looked all around, but could not find it. Thanks for the hunt.

We love these hides! Loads of muggles so attempted discretion! TFTC.

Nothing like a brazen mid afternoon grab. TFTC.

Quick but discrete find with plenty of muggles about. TFTH.

Very novel hide. Quite a challenge with plenty of muggles around. TFTC

Was a sneaky grab in a very busy area. TFTC

TFTC

We had arrived early to 'the gathering' and as we were assured that our assistance was not required, we decided to check out a few of the caches in this area. This was the third of ten for the day. Luckily this was a quick and dry find as a heavy shower was only seconds away as we arrived at GZ. TFTC

Major muggle area, luckily the closest muggle was too busy on her phone and truong to get money out of an atm. Tried to be inconspicuous, the cache was even touched...had to bend down and have an obvious look. Fantastic hide! Tfth

A quick find while dodging the showers on our way to the nearby Event.

Love these kinds of sneaky hunts

Found it, coords were a bit out as it was a cloudy day TFTC

Found it TFTC

This one had us thrown for a little while as the coordinates were taking us elsewhere. Then Geo-Hero suddenly found it ..... and we all so pleased. The Kat said she had looked in the same spot too, but missed it. We had lots of fun with this one. TFTH

Found it! Came here with Xinders and The Kat who were busy looking in other areas when I suddenly spotted it. Very happy to find it! TFTC

Oooh! How could I have missed it!! This was found by Geo-Hero .... I looked in the same spot and then went on to broaden the search elsewhere ... when he quietly (as he does) spoke (he is always calm) ... "I've found it!" I guess it would not have paid to yell, with the amount of muggles around that day!! TFTC schmidhot!

As rudi63 and I were heading home after attending the Northern Burbs Brunch and completing some caches in the area, we came by this one and I could not let it go as I remembered reading it when it was published. Thankfully the area was clear when we arrived and I managed to make a very quick find in an obvious location

Thanks for the cache schmidhot

Cheers

With Wileyclan, headed north today to attend the event and grab some caches in an area that we do not often visit. Rain and storms today did not dampen our enthusiasm, but lack of local knowledge did mean that some of the navigating left a little to be desired

A wrong turn just before Wanneroo road and we went past this cache, a vacant pack nearby and a quick grab. Thanks for the cache

Quick spotted the container and signed the log. Thanks schmidhot.

Very nice

very good, son found it.

Search was very stealthy until geoson yells at the top of his voice 'I found it!' tfth

Tricky little find well worth the time.

A quick find with very few muggles about.

Thanks for the cache.

A quick find, aided by the fact that there were 3 of us, so we didn't look quite so suspicious! TFTC

Stopped by with kellyxley and princess Fiona. Love this series so was quite happy to stop for it on our way to the next cache. Easy find here. TFTC!

Mr Bushies2 spotted it straight away because we have our similar cache back at home! Thanks schmidhot for the brilliant cache.

Couldn't find it, though we looked for ages. Found a cheap fruit & vege shop nearby though, so I will be back

Yay we finally found it.

Another quick grab while in the area for the orienteering SL TFTC

Second in a bad start for a day out caching. Relatively busy but spent a bit of time looking but no success on this one. maybe try again if time on hols permits

[B)] Arrived GZ @ Sat 18:00. This appears to be a very busy time for muggles to frequent the ATM. Found Seat... Talked to the "Bride & Groom" for clues.. no answers.. Will Return to this one at a low ATM demand time for good search.

Love it when you find them where you think they will be. BN. SOS. BDTNFAEAWSN

Aquick find once we had outsat some muggles on the seats

TFTC

Found today officially after a previous visit with ash.on.android. This is a real hot spot for dubious muggles so caution is necessary. A nice cache, thanks!

Wonderful to find after looking unsuccessfully twice at another cache. However the best reading I could get on this was 4m and it kept wanting to turn me right into a brick wall!

My first cache, tried a few others with no success, so was a big boost to my confidence thanks very much!

Phew, found this little blighter! With all the hustle and bustle going on noone took any notice of me scratching about with my shoes. But got quite a fright when looking over my shoulder to see someone staring at me through the shop window - beware the male manequin! Thanks for the hunt schmidhot.

nice quick find again, great series schmidhot, tftc

had a go at this one a few months ago with no luck....on this vsit col117 had cache in hand within 30 seconds...thanks schmidhot

Having had the opportunity for a FTF on this one, and being the only person to log a DNF, I went back today for another look. Found it in 2 seconds flat. TFTC, I will check out some other ATM Madness caches now. Cheers

Found after a short search in the morning before the area becomes muggle central. TFTH
