Parkeyerring Lake Ballaying, Western Australia, Australia

One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Should you like to resurrect the cache please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

From https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56

Unarchive a geocache
Archiving a geocache is meant to be a permanent action. Only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ can unarchive caches. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if the cache meets the current geocaching guidelines.

If a cache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance, it will not be unarchived.

Is this cache going to be replaced?

Passed this way again, but assumed this one had been archived as it wasn't showing up on either my gps or my companion's smart phone. Would have tried to find it a second time, but guess it can wait for another year or three for me to come back this way...

Gz was under water DNF

Was here to check out cache and although cache is probably ok, the water level is almost at a record high.

** This is a late log **

The caches I am now logging are from a day out caching with Mrs Jackylegs44. We couldn't decide which way to head, so eventually hatched a plan to do a bit of loop, seeing how far we got, aiming to pick up a few LGA's for their team along the way. All up I think we covered about 550km today, enjoying the scenery out the back of whoop whoop and collecting a small swag of smileys.

Since then, many more caches have been found and shared geocaching adventures have been enjoyed too, so it is about time that I got down to work on all those outstanding logs, albeit somewhat late.

I appreciate all the effort each of the cache owners has gone through to create and place each and every hide and I do not for one second take it for granted, I just need to get caught up so I can return to my usual style of individualized logs.

This was one that we spent considerable time at, but no joy for us here. We could see that the recent rains had raised the water level of the lake right up as high if not higher than where our gz was, so perhaps the cache has floated away somewhere. Thanks anyway Team Phyler

What a better way to spend Australia Day with a road trip exploring this great country of ours... And of course finding a few caches along the way

We could not believe how white the view was here... The kids just had to run out and see it close up! Of course we headed for the cache instead A quick find here & a few photos, before retreating back to the car from the heat [^]

Thanks for making us stop here Team Phlyer... & TFTC

The lake attracted me so the cache gave us a good excuse to explore a bit.
But it was a bit smelly and potentially dangerous to take Max the Geoute any closer
Log dutifully signed and replace but thanks for the excuse and the cache Team Phlyer

We had spotted the lakes on the way south and seen there was a cache here, so we stopped on the way back, made a quick find and had a quick look at the lake before the flies drove us away. TFTC!

Quick find. Tfth.

A quick trip to the great southern gave me an opportunity to grab a couple of caches to cross off a couple more Local Govt Authories for a challenge cache.

This lake is another spot I would have never found if I wasn't geocaching.




Team Phlyer. SVKR_WA found your cache on 9 November 2016. This find brings our finds count to 1660.

We have signed the log and replaced the hide as found.

Thanks for bringing us to this place.

Decided to get muggle to take me on a overnight georoad trip from Bunbury to Wagin via Boyup Brook, Kojonup and Woodanilling and a few little caching destinations along the way

Have never travelled from Woody to Wagin before so was surprised on this lake and so close to the road too

Nearly the end of the first days travel my little body was getting very weary so walking in the soft sand was torture.
I arrived at GZ to find sticks but no cache , thought it may have been muggled. Turned around and the container was about 7m way out in the open.

I did signing duties and put it back where it belongs and covered it up

TFTC

yes it's no longer a clip lock but a while plastic vitamin container but still small in size

Found. Not quite a clip lock container to us. More like a plastic jar, but great find! Thanks!

Found Parkeyerring Lake. No trackables to trade TNLN SL TFTH Team Phlyer.

I was on my way to Kukerin for a weekend of competition's so I grabbed a few caches along the way...

Hi there Team Phlyer - We found Parkeyerring Lake today - my find # 3518. SWMBO and I are on a short holiday of a few weeks duration on or about the south coast (and away from the Perth heat). The cache was found quickly and the container and log are both in good condition. SL. Thanks to Team Phlyer for the cache.

Tftc. Found 1 month ago but did not log

Nice lake but pretty dry

Nice one !

On my way to Katanning and taking a different route of course to pick up some geocaches. Great spot to pull up and stretch the legs took a couple of photos good find TFTC

Lovely walk to the lake. TFTC. Tor and Betsy, the travelling Westies roaming WA at present. We are from Oxenford near the Gold Coast in Queensland and thoroughly enjoying the West.

what a massive awesome lake

Catching up on logging finds tftc

Found As the sun goes down on another day.

TFTC great spot for a break

Nice spot to stretch. Thanks

Quickly found and it is a nice view from here

Geoson and I headed away for a boys trip and stopped by to grab some caches where the caravan would allow! This one was in the list and we soon had our name in the log book.

Team Phlyer - jinta29 found your cache Parkeyerring Lake on 17/07/2015 1:16 pm. This is my find #3447 and find #7 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Very serene place to visit.
It's tempting to stop for a long lunch.

This was a bit of a detour on our way out of town but it wasn't that far out. I seem to remember getting another one on this lake not far from here.
TFTC Team Phyler

A nice view even without any water

On the way back up from Albany TFTH

Driving back to Perth after a weekend away in Albany with cravo10, grabbing a few caches on the way. Tftc

Thanks so much for bringing us here .. What an incredible sight! it's dry and crunchy at the moment. Cache tucked away safely

Great quick stop. Took pathtag to put in a new destination!

TFTC awesome pit stop to find a cache. Signed log, dropped a pathtag

I found the screw top container where I'm sure Haggles left it. Still sitting pretty.

Something funny is going on! Maybe Barnzy found the old cache as the one I just found was the white screw top container and it had a log dating back to early '13. Not sure where it was meant to be as it was laying in the open, guessing wind/critters knocked it out of its hiding spot?
I re-hid it, probably not as well as I could've done so I apologise if it is not where it was originally (still at those co-ords). Took nothing and left some sea shells TFTC.

No sign of a cache in any of the trees within 10m of GZ

Nice lake tfth

TFTC! Found whilst driving to Perth from Albany.
Found a plastic container with no log sheet. May need a look from the CO.

Water in lake great to see. Unable to locate cache even though had another geocacher with me that had do'nt it before ((

Took geodog for walk at the lake. No water. Found easily, but was looking for a small clip lock container. We found white plastic screw top container, with geo info inside, few small trinkets. NO BOOK FOR SIGNING. Left Golden Coin, took nothing.

TFTC Team Phlyer

Tftc

Thanks

Cache was a bit exposed. TFTC

What a great little spot

Parked the car and headed to the lake for a look...get my phone out start looking around and geo-girl says, here it is just centimetres from my foot...as easy as that!

Thanks to the crew of Southern Boomers (Rick & Nicole) who replaced the missing cache this one is now available again.

A great place to set up for an afternoon with a book and snack and enjoy the peace and tranquility of the place. Today the lake was waterless but the beauty is still there. The soft sand around the edge of the lake made it feel like the beach without water

Called in here to check on cache as there had been a few DNF.....and it is missing. After 2 years that is very disappointing. However we will not be outdone by muggles and will install a new cache shortly......

The Albany Nomads ..Parked..Our ..Rings
And we also looked high and low with now luck..may be others will find it..or may be this cache has gone to Heaven ..Thanks any way

Searched for ages for this one. No easy find today.

[:(!] Mrs Grumpybump and I did a three day caching run from Perth to Albany and back, now we were heading back to Perth, parked the geocar close as possible to GZ and walked the rest of the way, on arrival at GZ, we had the cache in hand in a matter of minutes. TNLNSL TFTC/TFTH

No birds but plenty of water. Thanks for giving us another cache opportunity FelixII.

Enjoyed the brief stop over

Easy find

Easy find w/ JTHL6302...look out
for the spiders Tracey!!

Water everywhere. And it the end of summer...right?

Good spot for lunch as evidenced by Felix II photos. TFTC. I continue to be amazed by this wonderful country of ours.

We decided to make our own long weekend this weekend after working the last weekend. We were headinng to camp at Yornanning Dam for the weekend with friends. Then maybe down to Wagin for the Woolarama.

So up this morning 38degrees, not prepared to sit around the campsite so we teamed up with Mezzleowl and headed down to Wagin. The rest of our group were planning on going to the Woolarama but we had other ideas and targeted the caches in the area.

What a great spot for a cache. We have been through Wagin previously but didn't know this little gem was here!

Managed to pull up a log and have lunch here too whilst we enjoyed the view over the lake. Also managed a bit CITO too.

TFTC Team Phlyer

Got too love long weekends!!

Find number four (after skipping a few along the way).

Nice place, and an easy find!

TFTC

The geocache was a great find. The coords out by 24 m or was it just the tree cover?

TFTC

Nice clear lake today.
TNLNSL TFTC

Lovely day and enjoyed look at the lake - search for short - finally find the container - No swap. Signed the log. Thanks Team Phlyer.

MOZZIES, MOZZIES and more MOZZIES. If it weren't for the cache I reckon I could have stayed in the geomobile. TFTC.

I can't believe that only one recent log mentioned the mozzies; he too must be an east coaster. The lake had a fishy smell to it, and the GPS played up beneath those wretched power lines, but in the end there weren't too many places for the cache to be hidden, and it was soon at hand. TFTC TNLN

Found as we headed South for the long weekend.

Found on our way down to Albany, thanks for the dirversion. Nearly missed logging this one.

tfth. Took a travel bug to move on.

Easy find. Nearly got carried away by the mossies.
TNLN TFTIE

Found at 3.40pm GAFF1. We were camped in town so went for a bit of a caching tour before settling down for dinner. A lovely spot, but the receding water was a worry after all of the rain that has fallen recently - or didn't it reach this area?
Thanks Team Phyler.

This is a similar story to what Victoria went through with a ten year drought seeing most of these smaller lakes turn to nothing but dust. This year we had record rains and everything is back as it was ten years ago. Hopefully the same will happen to this area soon, it definitely needs it. The cache was a nice easy find all the same, hopefully on our next visit we have to tromp out through mud
Thanks again Team Phyler for the cache

Certainly a dry lake at the moment. Easy find cause the cache was exposed TFTH

Nice quick grab, small container so no room to make a swap. Had a quick look at the view over the lake and then headed back towards Wagin. TFTC.

Found on a drive to Albany. Very windy and fresh here today.

Thanks for the cache

WanderingAus wandered by, meandering through the countryside on the way to GC2KA92 WA Caching 10th Birthday Bash - Albany 2011 by tangowithcupcake, and made an extremely quick and easy GAFF 0 find.

My find No 3360, LCC, TNLNSL, grabbed Bee-Ware Geocoin (ref = TB1NB47), dropped my WanderingAus Happy New Year 2008 Gold GC and my WanderingAus GeoMobile TB in for a visit before grabbing them back again.

Found previously as one of the “Rainbow Coasters”.

The male Coaster spent a good number of years growing up in Wagin and had never stopped at the lake before. An easy grab, would be lovely to see the lake when full, unfortunately doesn’t happen very often these days. The 13th cache of the Coasters trip Albany to Katanning overnight, north to Dumbleyung and return.
