due to two DNF by very experienced cachers, one can assume the cache has been muggled and now where in the vicinity . im unable to go there myself so for the time being it archived.
Headed out this way today intending to do the Car Rally Series plus a few others. My second DNF here, despite four of us looking for quite some time. If it is still there, it is well and truly hidden. Thanks anyway...
The better half and I joined up with Mistraluna and Gwiber for a day of caching in Forrestfield and decided to go a bit further to do the newer caches that had been published after we had planned the day.
After doing the other cache nearby we came up to this one but it must be too well hidden as none of could find it.

Second dnf of the morning. Poked around for ages but found nothing but leaves, and a pretty amazing looking tree!
Out on a day of caching with skippy 46 in the high wycombe and kalamunda area. We had a successful day with 20 finds and 2 that appear to be missing. we were a bit concerned when we got to this one with all the prior DNFS but today was our lucky day and we made a fairly quick find here after searching all the possible hidey holes.

Out and about with OOH YEH for a day of caching. We made a fairly quick find here after searching a couple of possible places. OOH YEH made her 2300th cache find here and was also attacked by ants which were crawling all over her, so its a memorable find.

Happened to be in the area visiting a friend for some R&R after a hectic few weeks moving out of my house. Checked on it and it's still where I originally placed it.I think it's an easy find but then you always do when you've placed it yourself. I may add a hint or up the difficulty. Happy hunting.
I am moving house tomorrow so may be a week before I can get back there so temp disabling it. The hiidey hole it's in it could have been placed too far back or someone has Amstradkided it Sorry Steve! If it's gone I will replace it with a bison tube attached to something. This was only my second cache placed so a bit naive about caches being put back in a harder place than where you had hidden them. Sorry you guys had a wasted journey.
Awww found easily today... Was right there......
Thanks for the Pathtag Richlink!

Headed north yet again, this time teaming up with jasenjanine and little DangerMouse09. Day started off a bit shaky for all of us, but we weren't deterred from our mission. This one proved elusive for us today. But we did find something that looked a little bit sus, so we assumed that the cache had been muggled. Wonder if the others that found it today were there before or after us?? Will be watching this one. Thanks anyway trevkevred
We arrived at this lovely park hoping for a quick find... Unfortunately it was not to be Search we did & we could not find it... Oh well, another reason to come back here now Thanks for the hunt trevkevred.
Yes gps was sending us in all directions. Looked in obvious spots then broadened search.
Probably looking right at it.... grrr I hate it when people say easy find & I cant find it....
Will have to try again later.

Doing the rounds of the area with iluvtrekking and came upon this pretty park. Our geo-pooch enjoyed the scramble over the rocks while we searched for the container.

Mmm. Plenty of nooks and crannys here! Was a few metres off GZ but got it after 20 minutes after broadening the search. Took the hourglass, left a blue bead. TFTC.
I was visiting friends who live the next street after Zamia on the other side of Gooseberry Hill Road. I stopped past this cache on the way, spent 15 minutes searching and couldn'r find it. Stopped again on the way home before rolling down the hill and was pleased to spot the cache this time. Thanks trevkevred.
[:(!] Before heading off to Northam for the weekend we decided to pick up a couple of caches along the way before leaving the big smoke, parked the geocar as close as possible to GZ and walked the rest of the way, on arrival at GZ we had the cache in hand after several minutes of searching.

This took awhile but after laying low from dog walking muggles and stepping back looking at the bigger picture junior geo discover it
Lovely park. The GeoFur enjoyed clambering on the rocks and jumping in the stream. Thanks for bringing us here
After arriving to live permanently in the West yesterday there was some business to take care of in the hills. After work came play and this was a great reward for todays efforts. Good little hide. Found with Mr CDM261. TFTC!
Found while on our way back to our accommodation.
Quick detour to see the King of the Castle ... and we weren't the dirty rascals.
SL - Cache to small for TB's so they just visited.

We still had some more time so this looked like a bit of a drive by. We parked close, checked for muggles and then made a quick find. With the signing duties complete we rehid with time to go and get some more. TFTC.
Wow nice house around this town... Yes spotted the cache phew!!!... Signed the log. Thanks trevkevred
Mrs Felix had worked a 13 hour night shift and she still wanted to go Geocaching in the morning, direct from work!!! Addicted or what???
Anyway we decided to tackle some caches in and around High Wycombe.
Nice reserves, all new to me, the Cache was left nearly out of sight and reach, so was fortunate to find it pretty quickly.
Left it in a slightly more generous position for the next finder in case they don't have Inspector Gadget arms.

After working night shift last night Mrs Felix teamed up with The Machman to tackle some caches in and around High Wycombe.
This could be oh so tricky, but luckily MM spotted the cache.

I searched in the immediate area where the gps seemed to be saying the cache was. The area matched the description but no cache was to be found. I was about to broaden the search when I spied something suspicious and soon had the cache in hand. TFTC.
looked win every rock crevice and tree fork......fairly overgrown and snakey spot so gave up
The GPS was jumping all about the place here so couldn't get much of a fix, but hoping that the cache title gave a bit of a hint, started a search right where it was hidden, for a very fortunate find. Thanks for the hunt trevkevred.
We enjoyed visiting and finding this cache. Good one for the younger Geocacher! TFTC
Only a couple of hundred metres from my old home, so I know the park well. Thanks for the cache.
A nice quiet and small park which we would not have found unless looking for the cache. Thank you for taking us there!
Family was off preparing for the wedding, so I had a bit of spare time. Met a guy with 2 huskies as I began my walk to the cache. Thankfully my GPS agrees with yours as there are many spots to search and it is well camouflaged. Only took 10 minutes. TFTC
On arrival at the cache saw a person with a beautiful white german shepherd comming up towards the cache. I left my wife at the cache and took Jazl my geodog down the reserve away from the other dog with instructions to look for the cache while I was walking the dog. Glancing back I saw my wife had commenced what was to be about a 10 minute conversation with the owner of the shepherd.
I returned located the cache. Left bird TFTC

Could not find this one....was wondering if it was gone but with a find since then I will have to go back and look again.
We found with relative ease. It was a bit exposed in its location so planted it back a bit further within its hiding place so not visible by muggles. Our first cache in WA.
I thought it was going to be a hard find at first. I didn`t see any trackable in there. TFTC.
Nice little park. We found the cache all nice and tucked into it's hidey hole. Took GC to move along. I think El Cacholoco got bit by a wasp or something that had crawled up his shorts. He's fine now.
We've eyed off this linear park for ages as a cache site, but now we got the opportunity to find one rather than place one!
We ragged rascals around these ragged rocks rooted, until the telltale gleam of camo plastic was seen.
Nobody overlooking us as far as we could see...

Lovely park, I could hear the muggles across the road playing in their swimming pool on this very hot day (wished I was joining them too), but no-one ever appeared on the balcony, so I was able to search freely. Took quite a search to find this one, and eventually it was right in front of my face... I was searching all the deeper, darker spots first.
Left Hai ! TB. Thanks for the cache trevkevred!

My brother duncdonut73 sent me a message this afternoon to tell me that 4 caches had been hidden near my house. Unfortunately, with meetings throughout the day, I could only get to them after work. This was the last of the four caches, and I managed to locate it easily around 6:30pm. Thanks trevkevred for an interesting end to the afternoon
FTF yaaaaaaaay
I saw this come up during morning tea break and I was out the door within 5 minutes flat, telling the boss: “I have something important to pick up, will be back in ¾ hour” (always tell your boss the truth lucky for me he didn’t care enough to ask WHAT I was picking up). It’s amazing how many little suburban pieces of nice bush are in this area.
