11-Dec-16
Another day of chasing down missing dates today with Geodogs Bobble and Zotti. This was our first stop. I didn't have much luck here last time when I did the other caches in the area but today it was a nice quick find. No snakes but a lovely spider web in front of the cache had me extracting it with caution. TFTC oneplusfive -It feels great to finally cross this one of the list.

Found this one with Leega and the Geohound. Nice quick find but the rain started coming down as we were signing the log. What seemed like a short walk to get there seemed like miles on the way back in the rain. Soon as we got home, beautiful and sunny. Nothing like a good caching shower. TFTC oneplusfive.
 
08-Jul-16
A quick grab for axell33 and the geodog today. Started warm and sunny, ended cold and soaked, then warm and sunny again all in 20 odd minutes. Tyftc

No success for us today - wondering if its been disturb as there appears to have been a bit of youth activity in the area - maybe a quick check from the owner to make sure its all okay

Months! Plenty of hiding spots I will try again another time!
 
28-May-15
Great spot for a cache once we worked out how to enter the area (please don't climb the fence)
Will return to walk the whole circuit. Thanks for showing us this place.

We decided to geocache in this area after taking our daughter to a friends house nearby. Geohubby found the hiding place quickly and this was our last find of the afternoon. The log was a little damp though the container seemed to seal properly. TFTC oneplusfive and for the history in the cache name Smile

Scan the area to see all possible hiding spots and found is the first sweep...TFTC

17-Jul-14
Stopped on the way home, parked at the shopping centre as suggested. As I crossed Nairn Road, I noticed a new-looking fence along the parkland, with a mean-looking electrical wire at the top.
I will come back on a day I have more time to investigate access off SB Road!
 
13-Jun-14
This place has grown cleaned up cache bit wet
 
13-Jun-14
Found and signed the log. Always thought this sport was someones farmland or something lol. I am finding so many walking trails and parks etc I never knew existed!! Thanks Smile
Cache was full of dirt and water, and a keyring had started to rust a bit Sad
Cleaned up the cache as best we could, items all now in plastic ziplocks inside the container.
Log it a bit damp but has been placed into a new ziplock.

[:(!] On a Sunday afternoon after church what else is there to do but to do some caching with the geowife and this was one of them, parked the geocar as close as possible to GZ and walked in from there, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes.

Nice morning run with the kids. This is day 4 if find 31in31. We noticed someone camping in the bush nearby, so took a wide berth around them, (just incase) we made quick work of this one. Thanks for the cache!!
 
04-Aug-13
Mum bought us out for a quick cache this morning. It was pretty cold, so we did this quickly. Thanks for the cache!
 
21-Jul-13
Found it. Thank goodness we have a 4WD but just a short walk off the road. Bring your own writing stick as it is missing.
 
25-May-13
After dropping geowife off to work for the afternoon, geoson and I decided to find some of the caches hidden around this area. Soon had this one in hand after a short walk from the parking spot. Swapped a toy fish for an eraser. TFTC oneplusfive.

Parked by the shopping centre and walked with geokids. Was a quick find.
 
13-Apr-13
A tough ride to GZ to log a quick find. Thanks oneplusfive.
 
10-Mar-13
Parked along the road on a warm evening, and started our walk towards where the compass was taking us, oops took the hard way but finally found where we should be looking.... TFTC.... log was a little soggy from the bubbles left behind. Very Happy
 
07-Feb-13
Put off doing this one since it was first placed as we are always in WA at a 'snakey' time. Braved it today which resulted in nothing but dirty feet after 20 minutes. Oh well it wasn't meant to be.
 
04-Feb-13
Quick find after a long days work TFTC

We were headed to the nearby shops when we decided to go for a little adventure along some tracks and found that the trail lead us straight to the cache Big Grin With temps in the 40's we left the kids watching us from the airconned car whilst we headed over to all those logs Surprised

Luckily for Jase he spotted the container straight away! I hadn't even begun my search [^] TFTC oneplusfive. A great spot for a cache, it's a wonder there are not more in this area [?] Cache was wet so we dried it out and chucked out all the soggy crap that was inside... It should be good for now Smile
 
27-Dec-12
Found @ 09:19!

Find #04 on a morning of local geocaching!

Interesting history lesson about the area...

Grass had been cut for me, so the walk to GZ was east!
Hint didn't really narrow down the potential hiding places, but found cache without any problems.

Contents had been water-damaged and logbook was still a bit damp but OK.

Would like to take a walk around here when it's a bit cooler...

TNLN TFTC!
 
09-Dec-12
Walked around the the long grass to GZ
Geosis walked straight to it and picked it up.
She has the eyes 0.0

Thanks
 
02-Dec-12
Great cache Smile
 
30-Nov-12
A fair walk after parking near the shops. Did not take too long to find in one of the obvious spots. The log book is starting to get damp but is signable. I did tip some water out of the cache and contents have water damage. TFTC oneplusfive SL
 
20-May-12
Found it. Out for a late sunday arvo treasure hunt with fellow cacher filthyhippies. Has this on the to do list and had treasure in hand within a few minutes.
Cheers
 
24-Apr-12
Took ages!!! Did the re-entry & still no success! Found a tattered grey plastic bag & feared the worst & were about to give up when one more poke with the trusty stic & there it was - minus grey bag!
 
21-Apr-12
Pulled in to park the car and the rain started Sad. Its not TOO heavy, and it SHOULD clear soon, my brain said in its cache obsessed thought stateWink. Like a rabbit being chased by a fox, off down the path I scampered. As I approached GZ the rain stopped [^]- the power of positive thinking perhaps??? Cache in hand in a short time, not a muggle in sight Smile.

TFTC oneplusfive Cool
 
25-Feb-12
Had had this one on my to do list for a while, and today was the day. I too hate snakes, but the lure of a Lotus Europa was too great - shame about the colour though as I have an aversion to all things yellow, so won't be keeping this TB for any longer than necessary. Signed the log, took teaspoon for cache down in Mandurah, left blue bubble mix. TFTC
 
24-Feb-12
Just done the weekly shopping and noticed that there is a large fence being errected to the east of this cache between it and the shops. Looks like they are building something. You might need to access this one from the south (Safety Bay Road) side.
The cache shouldn't in trouble as it sits in a protected area.
 
30-Jan-12
OK we thought after a nice big breakfast nearby we would get this one done early. A short walk from the shops and a quick find....or so we thought. Forcast for the day was 35'c and it soon heated up as did our temper is trying to find this one.
We climbed and stomped and looked but to no avail for such a long time.
A quick re-entry to the location from the clearing and there it was.
Took about 20 mins of looking to find it. So many spots for snakes to hide it wasn't funny.
 
21-Jan-12
Out on a run to find a few Baldivis and Lark Hill caches for the day. This was the second of 15 and a nice easy stroll from the shopping center car park.
Left one of our stretchy lizards and "Lotus Europa" TB
Thanks for the cache oneplusfive. [^]
 
16-Jan-12
Easy find Smile Thanks
 
21-Dec-11
Great bush walk took mad cowwww tb as it will want to travel overseas..
 
20-Dec-11
Parked at the nearyby shops (which we never knew existed :O) and battled the long grass to get to this cache. Thanks oneplusfive! Very Happy
 
09-Oct-11
After being dragged into work on a Sunday, I thought I'd 'reward' myself on the way home with a bit of caching. . .after a short stopmp through the long (wet) grass, there it was!!

Dropped trackable. . .

TFTC, oneplusfive!
 
08-Sep-11
Interesting story behind this one, certainly learnt something today. So thank you.

Had to trample through some long grass to get here and even in early spring the Mosquitos were out in force.
Fortunately it was a quick find by my caching partner (FELIX) so we were out of there quick sharp.

TFTC.

CoolA beautiful Spring day and a caching run through Baldivis with The Machman.

It took longer to decide where to park the car for this. Then a trek through the long grass and the cache was spotted as soon as we were at GZ.
