Atom Ant leave home Yangebup, Western Australia, Australia
By Lizzar on 29-Jan-11. Waypoint GC2N1HY

Construction in the area access to cache is taken over by earth moving equiment going in and out, Atom ant will move to another location.

Disable for now Bulldozer in area doing land clearing unsure at this stage what's going on in here.

Find 17 of 37 on two mountain bike rides around Cockburn/Yangebup, then after lunch and waiting for the temperature to really warm up, Thomsons Lake. Today's target was 36 finds to make 2020 a record year and hit 1500 finds and thanks to various COs placing and maintaining some compact series we made it, specifically Lazarus_68, ChrisRG and fratra. Lachlan1.77, I C Nothing and Barnzy12 also chipped in with some random caches just where we needed them!

Getting a bit warm now and the remoteness of this cache caused a slight sense of humour loss as we battled soft sand and scratchy bush. Very fortunately, the cache had been left lying down, or had blown over, so it was a lot easier to spot than intended. Put it back the right way up as we left, of course

TFTC Greggiths!

Nice.coordinates for me were spot on..crisp new log..cache in excellent condition tftc

Replace log

Find #331 of 365 streak. Arrived at GZ and thought I might be in for a long hunt. With the nearby school at recess I didn't want to be spotted lurking in the bushes. Luckily I spotted a well blended camo quickly. TFTC.

Well this one has been on my to-do-list for years and since I needed a pick me up today was the day. Made a nice quick find here only to find my pen had died on me, maybe shouldnt have pinched it from somewhere in the first place! CO has pic and given the ok to log it, thanks mate.

Day 241 of our 366 day straight challenge.

On our way to nanna and Grandad's so stopped by here for the cache. Found straight away on my second sweep while the geokids sat on the nearby log. After a bit we managed to open the cache, apparently it's not a screw top.... TFTC Lizzar a fav from us for camo.

I've up dated the Terrain rating as things have change a little around here.

Loads of litter and mosquito we will be back

We were sitting home twiddling our thumbs and decided to head out on this stunning winters day and grab some caches. This was one of the hides that we targeted for today! Cheers and TFTC.

I really like what you have done here Lizzar, the construction job is absolutely worthy of a fave point from us and we have awarded one accordingly! Great stuff, keep ‘em coming.

G’day there Lizzar, I was in this area today and found your cache Atom Ant leave home GC2N1HY. I added my name to the log book at 10:55 am on 24 June 2018. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

This cache find brings our total find count to 9718. Woohoo!!

Little Sunday afternoon outing with Spike to he can reach his goal with the challenge!

Spike found this one within a few minutes! Car wreck nearby was pretty cool saw a cat out in the bush too!

Popped out to get a few caches to complete the planetary challenge!

A clever Camo, can't say I've seen anything like it before.

Found by X. TFTH

Creative find

Nice wee construction here Lizzar so thanks for taking the time to make the find that much more fun.

Searched everything and everywhere and finally uncovered the very clever camo.
A favourite point.

TFTC Lizzar this is find # 3877 for us.

## Found it this time. Great hide but like the previous finder it was on its side so was able to find it relatively quickly. Great camo. A fave ##

Im sure I would have missed it, if it had been the right way up. But it had fallen over on its side and I noticed that natural object didnt quite look right. Great cache!

Found after a brief search in between showers. TFTH.

This cache could've been hard but we were lucky to stumble upon it quickly. TFTH.

A particularly nasty camo for this terrain.
I really hope it wasn't AA, I'm not taking any responsibility, but an ant was harmed in the making of this find. TFTC.

Geo Oma made the find! Thanks for the hide. Cool hide!

Clever cache. Grandmother found

On our way looking for christmas lights and it was too light so we stopped for a caching break. Thanks for the hide

Nice camo, tricky find. Glad the undergrowth wasn't too bad. Tftc!

DNF'd here a few months ago but this time used my brain a little more, thought things through and was able to come up with the very well camo'd cache. TFTC Lizzar.

Check on cache all is still good the wildflowers are out near the cache

Check on cache all is still good the wildflowers are out near the cache

Came past after finishing the series around the lake. Got redrenched with long wet grass and ended up with sqwelchy shoes. This would have been fine if we had found it but this didn't happen even though i thought i knew what we were looking for. weeds were too high and thick and wet and there was a lot of ground to cover. Next time ? Tftc.

Good camo. I haven't seen one like this before. After hunting around in the wrong places for a while I spotted this likely object that didn't look quite natural

Not taking DNF's very well at the moment. Spent ages on this one. Maybe next time.

Daniel, Lewis & Jess

It's a hard one. Try agaim tomorrow.

Found it thanks to clue. Could go with a pencil but il have to log it later when i come back

Out and about in good Friday tfth TFTC

TFTC! Found on good Friday, with nothing to do and nowhere to go, we go caching. Thanks

Replace with New log the old one was just a bit wet

great cache. out with my muggle friend on a morning walk. tftc

Decided to not even look for this one as i saw the really long grass on this warm afternoon. Another day I'll be back

What a great cache. Thanks

Originally logged under family name of clan-wallace now slowly transitioning to new name

Still following in your wake CybergranV. Yes we were admiring the camo too. The log is wet. TFTC

Found this one today whilst heading home from Coogee. I turned up at school lunchtime so felt like a bit of a creeper...great camo & lovley walk amongst the soring wildflowers. TFTC Lizzar

After a short walk through the bush we found the car, widened our search and Muggle Hubby located this very cleverly constructed cache container. Thanks for bringing us into this little patch

Once at GZ I knew what not to search and had no trouble spotting the cache as it was upside down, I reckon I would have found it regardless as I've seen something like this before. Very well constructed cache though. Replaced right way up and went on my way.

Lizzar I found your cache at 5:11pm, this was the 1st of 1 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 2090. The cache was in good order thanks for bringing me to this area.

SLTFTC

Came past today to avenge my DNF from last time I was here. This time I was able to spot it rather quickly. I spent a little bit of time searching the car last time round but today I almost spotted it immediately. TFTC Lizzar.

Am visiting Yangebup Mick from SA we decided to do some Geos while the girls went shopping ! Quick find tnln Thanks Lizzar After not finding it last year had to come back for another crack Great Camo !

Check on cache Still in place I have added an extra hint as there been some searching activity going on still in plain view.

Great one, forgot pen, but took photo as proof.

Dnf

But of a stroll through the hot dusty bush and we were rewarded by a very clever cammo. TFTC

Sooooo hard to find! Bush everywhere, where long pants n runners! Got the spot but couldn't find the geocache! We will be back tomorrow to search!

Found with jasenjanine... TFTC Lizzar

In the area today to clean up a few caches, and this one had us scratching our heads for a while [?]. The Gps'r was pretty certain of where it wanted us to be, but i wasn't so sure that it would be in the middle of the grassy area! A slight expansion of our search area eventually led us to this clever hide ... although it did take about 15 minutes to track down.
All good with this cache, great camo ... Thanks Lizzar

Found it but no pen. Ok, clues make sense now!!!!!!

G

Nice find this morning with LivingBumbleBee. Very nice and creative camo! TFTC!

Check on today still there, same spot, still in plain view, kind off,

Was hoping to get a nice quick find here, but I couldn't spot this one. There was a fair bit of undergrowth, so may have missed it. I will be back.

Nice to see what the camouflage was. Thanks!

Someone missed the corner....

First camo find very over grown around it now fun times

Braved the long grass hoping not to meet any slithering things. Co-ords spot on. Found Adam Ant home. Cool camo. TFTC Lizzar.

With a cool day forecasted, we decided to do a couple of small trails in the area.
We enjoyed this great little cache, which was a little cheeky.
Worth a favourite point from us.
Thanks for the hunt today, Lizzar.

Taking my girlfriend 7 year old son on a geocaching day and he loves it.. We manage to do 18 in total .. Nice quick find with a beautiful day. Great Camo... I loved it TFTC

After reading T Samson entry about the log was wet and seeing the photos from Salbs & Sammiimitch holding the wet log I Have now replace it with a New Dry log.

#7

Incredible camo!!!!

great little cache pop in on my lunch break

note
Log was wet and looks like Adam had his mates round for a few

TFTC

Took a lot more than it should have, as I did not believe the GPS and insisted to look at the wrong spot. Nice job, TFTH.

Jackpat found this one. Good hide. TFTC

liked how you named the cache and the camo was great

jackpat found this 1 nice 1!!!!!!!

Cool hide! Took awhile to find Tftc

Followed the ant trail - or was it the geotrail, to GZ and had a bit of a look about wondering where Atom's new home might be constructed and it was with a bit of anxiety that I cautiously poked at what I thought might be it. Turned out I was at the right address! Very nice architecture!
Thanks for a great fun cache, Lizzar.

Was out with Keego doing caches nearby and Keego having found this one long ago wanted to watch me find this one.
I waited for the GPS to settle then searched for about 5mins before finding the cache.
TFTC

Wow!!! admired your created the camo - good one... [^] [^] [^] Signed the log. Thanks Lizzar

This cache has been on our radar for a considerable amount of time, so while our Patrol was having some work done on it nearby, we headed off in the courtesy car. Only had time to do two caches, this being one of them. Great camo. Thanks Lizzar.

Well Cammoed. We only spotted it because it looked different to other things. The leaf matter was hiding most of it. at first I though it was an old weathered tennis ball.
Thanks for the cache

Loved the camo! Had a crazy lady panic moment when I walked thru a giant spider web near the GZ, but don't think anyone saw!
TFTC.

Check on cache today there has been some activity going on near the old car wreak, look like kids been playing here, the spot where the cache is, is not as good as it was before and the cache has been move and was expose in the open lucky still in one piece I put it back where it should be may have been a dog that play with it. The cache could be a bit more easier to find if you know what your looking for but not for muggles as the camo is still good.

I too was worried about crossing paths with a slithering inhabitant of this piece of bushland, but I made it there and back without incident. Found the cache after walking in circles for a while. Well made cache Lizzar, thanks for the hide.

didnt look too hard worried about those crawly things !

Check on cache area after the little storm we had, a little bit of damage near the cache, it may be a little bit easier at this time.
OOH YEH, entry 19/9/12 about its overgrown at the moment, et cetera. Yes it still is.

Nice hide

I thought i was going to be logging a DNF here. The cache is not in plain view anymore as the bush area is really overgrown at the moment, I was actually having second thoughts about looking for the cache as the grass was nearly as tall as me and i was a bit concerned about snakes. But after about 30 minutes of walking around in circles i happened to see someting that looked a bit odd. YAH it was the cache, great camo job TFTC

Good fun - great cache. Boots and long pants recommended.

Generally I found the caches in this southern area tough going. This was no exception. With the difficulty and terrain ratings I was expecting much easier. Even after a friend told me exactly what I was looking for, it took 20min to locate the cache - I've really got to stay north! Thanks for the cache Lizzar.

GPS took US a little astray,but eventually led us in the right direction. Terrific camouflage
1 January 2012

Found on a morning cache run with Mr and Mrs FelixII.

Mrs FelixII found this one first and has her mitts on it faster than you could say FelixII!

Awesome cache, totally deserves points for creativity!

TFTC Lizzar

Met up today with Tanzanite1982 to join forces for a morning caching. 3 pairs of eyes better than 2, you know.

Last one with Tanzanite, so it was truly good to see the work you put into this cache. Quickly spotted by Mrs Felix though.

TFTC Lizzar

Hunted in a few locations around Atom Ant's old car as my GPS had me going in circles. Eventually found it. Great camo!. TFTH Lizzar. SL. TNLN

Awarded well deserved favourite point!

I went checking on the cache this weekend I found out if you walking on the track near the cyclone wire fence where the trees are beware of magpies swooping so far this is the only spot they are at, the cache area still safe

The gps took a while to settle, but finally led me to the spot.
Extra good camo.
I practically discovered it by accident whilst poking about.

This one almost got the better of me, I was looking & looking, finally found it the little sucker!!

Out and about today working in the Cockburn area, so I thoufgt I would pick up a few caches as well. This one had intrigued me for a while, so off to hunt this one down. After a quick walk thru the bush and the lovely smelling Fresias, I was at GZ. It took a while for the GPSr to settle but kept pointing to one spot, after a quick look the sneaky cache was revealed. A nice hide, it is always nice to see a different cache container, thanks Lizzar for the cache SL.

In the Beeliar area looking for some caches, nice camo, took a little while.

Thanks Lizzar.

Great camo, definitely appreciate the effort put into that, wandered around for about 2 minutes before spotting it! Thanks guys
