Coordinates had us in the middle of the track but cache was soon located in the obvious place! Thanks AusTrackers
Foud! Very nice trail, saw a lot of kangaroos on the way! This one was nicely hidden and easy to find! Very well done, hope we can find the others as well and solve the mystery one!
Raced to find this one to get everything for the puzzle cache as the day drew to a close. TFTC
Made an hour this morning for a trip before school. To add to the lovely views on this walk we also saw some Rainbow Bee-eaters catching some breakfast.
hacked cross country from Vire to the rocks a bit southwest then all swearing and uphill in a b-line to here.. too much fun, thanks..
Came to do the CPS series but, after seeing that the parking waypoint was right next to the first in this series, decided to double up.
Easiest find of the series so far. TFTC AusTrackers.

Found this while House Sitting in Bedfordale*
*Out and about letting my GPS be my guide*...
This series caught my eye, I needed a cache or two to continue my streak and I thought that I would take a bite out of it.
A beautiful walk through this lovely area search, found the cache, stamped and returned.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment AusTrackers. Appreciate your efforts.

TFTC! Another Thursday out with Cravo10 to pickup a few more series in the outer suburbs of Perth, I think we may be finally starting to make a dent in the list
We headed to gosnells/kenwick area first picking up the Charli series by Grannett which was similar to the Charli walk series we did quite some time ago but a nice walk along a sealed path for most of the way apart from a few deviations into the bush. We found them all except number 3 which we may return to in the dry season!!
We then tried for a few allied prankster archived caches from the ants and birds series, with 5 of the 6 attempted located safe and sound although we did have to add a logbook to two of them as someone had damaged the micro caches. All still there and working well otherwise.
With Cravo10 rolling his ankle it made the day a bit tougher, but I did make him soldier through the CPS series near roleystone and the carpobrotus series by austrackers nearby which were both enjoyable and all found in easy logical spots, we will return another day to grab the three final caches as well as me and Bs caches further up the road.
Thanks to the local COS for a great days caching. Thanks

Found Scens. I didn’t know why, but I took the souvenir finder card. Later, I realise the card is a requirement to the mystery puzzle, Carpobrotus virescens. LN SL TFTH AusTrackers.
After caching in the area last Saturday we decided to come back and visit the nearby Araluen Park and hunt down some of the remaining hides. The two series in the Wungong Regional Park were very inviting, so we left the car at the published parking area and off we went.
The hides in the Carpobrotus virescens were pretty easy to find, so I just add a generic log saying thanks for the effort.

We found this one today whilst out doing the cps caches. A great excuse to head back to the area and finish this new set now
Headed out to do this series today with the muggle son who sometimes likes to tag along on some of my hikes. Parked at the suggested waypoint and about two hours later we were back at the car after a nice stroll albeit with a few ups and downs to get the heart pumping.
Found all the caches plus a couple of others easily enough along with the final although it took a while before we stumbled upon the main track. Muggle son's name is in the logs as Shano88, he probably wont log online.
Spotted this one from the path for another easy find.
AusTrackers I found your cache at 1:11pm, this was the 7th of 9 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 2056. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

I walked cross-country to here from Eclipseae Mintalis via CPS-28 and CPS-27 and found it a generally easy walk over relatively flat ground. After finding the cache easily I worked out the coordinates for the final then headed off to look for that. Thanks to Austrackers for the cache and the series.
Nice find just off track. Boys get a buzzz when they can find them wi Th out help
KID FREE DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These only come along once in a blue moon, so Janine and I took full advantage of it and headed into the hills.
The day was a bit warmer than we had thought it may be, but we still had a pretty productive day.
Overall we had one DNF and one failure to complete a really easy puzzle.

Headed out with MNS13 for some kid free caching in the Wungong Regional Park... After backtracking & making our way back up the hill towards this cache, we were well & truly stuffed! We probably should have headed back to the car, but after finding this cache & having yet another drinks break we continued on
After making a total balls up of the final co-ords we were in no position to return to the final today, so this was to be the last of the series for now We shall return another day & hopefully in much cooler conditions!
Thanks for the series so far AusTrackers [^] Cache was in good condition.

Out today with Geodad with 1 1/2 hours to kill so we tackled The Carpobrotus series.Most were good co-ords and 1 cache took a while longer then others but found in the end.

I had this series on the radar for a while and today was the day to grab some smileys up here. A nice early start and I found the first few by torchlight However, I did have a blonde/senior (which is funny as I am neither) moment in that I recorded the clues for the final wrong and I was not able to grab it . I am not too disappointed though as it means I will have to come here again. The coords were very accurate and all containers were quickly found. TFTC and series Austrackers I will be back
I think we might just have the record for completing this set of caches in the longest period of time!! Our final one of the series, it's only took us almost three years to complete the set! Mystery cache, here we come!!
After work with 2 hours to spare, I decided to do the caches in this hill, I came a cross a number of good hide and all caches were in good condition...TFTC
whilst on Holiday visiting my big sister who is lucky enough to Live in Perth we introduced her to Geocaching her and her Hubby are now hooked we had done plenty of other caches on out travels but this was the first time that she had done a multicache puzzle and oh boy what a puzzle this was it is very well thought out and nice easy finds you have to love the Australian Bush, came across a few Kangaroo's whilst searching the bush land for these which were 7+ feet tall and were not that amused as to having there territory walked all over lol but our year old loved having the roo's so close, hopefully one day these caches will be our local ones.
Out on a morning of caching with the geohubby and we were only intending to do the CPS series but we parked in the wrong spot so we did this series as well. We have definately had a workout this morning walking up and down the hills but it was a nice cool day and we only got rained on twice. All caches were found quickly and info picked up for the final cache at the end TFTC AusTrackers
Gotta love weekends! After a crazy week, was great to get out on the geocaching trail again. Six out of six found very quickly. Now where is that final hiding? Thanks AusTrackers
First of the series attempted today with KC41194.
Planning on collecting all the nearby ones!
One of 20 finds for the day!

Nice stash of stuff. After trudging through bush and spiderwebs we then discovered the dirty great big track that leads straight to this cache. D'oh! TFTC.
Re-logging under new team name ONLINE ONLY (were formerly part of TheChatterboxes but the team had got too large). If CO is not ok with this please contact me. Thanks.
Found the last one, but did not get to do the 7th as had not loaded the information and the phone battery was just about out. Hopefully will get back to finish it. Thanks for a lovely little series in a peaceful spot.
[:(!] Went for a day of caching, parked the geocar close to Cayden's Cache and walked in from there, on arrival at GZ, did not have to use the GPS to find this cache, and within a couple of minutes I had the cache in hand. TNLNSL TFTC/TFTH
We have replaced the container in the same spot - the tree/white ants do appear to have "consumed" the old container as the whole area under the tree has shrunk considerably.
Was checking all the caches in this area whilst on the way doing a circuit of my own.
I couldn't find this one and the GZ I got today was not what I remembered when I first found it. If it is meant to be in the hollow of the upright tree that I had as GZ then it may be covered over by whiteants but I thought this one was a log so am not sure what was going on with it.

Out with iluvtrekking for the day so we decided to make a men and ladies team and split the three series in this location between us. The guys headed off to do their half and the girls completed the fabulous Austrackers set of caches before locating the final.Thank heaven after getting up the slope from Vire that it was a relatively flat track to this one. Loved it Austrackers.
Found as part of the girls team during a day out with richlink. TFTH Austrackers.
Still catching our breath from climbing Mt Everest, we stopped off here to make a very fast find. We were geting concerned about all the ups and downs on the way in as it meant a lot on the way out. Or so we thought.
We grabbed one clue card between us, seeing as we were hunting together
Thanks for the cache AusTrackers
Cheers

Great artwork and clever multi idea. So glad didn't try and attempt this series in summer. Am getting quite a work out from the rollercoaster terrain. It's all good.
The last one in the series before the final, and after sitting down on the log to try and line up the puzzle cards unsuccessfully on my leg I moved down to the main trail and just lined them up there.
On to the final prize! Thanks for the cache AusTrackers!

WanderingAus wandered by, chasing the Carpobrotus virescens series so that I could hopefully find GC2V13Y Carpobrotus virescens as my 4,500th find. The walk back up the hill had me really huffing and puffing, another lung would have come in handy, so I was glad to make another extremely quick and easy GAFF 0 find so that I could sit down for a rest.
My find No 4499, LCC, TNLNSL, dropped my WanderingAus Happy New Year 2008 Gold GC, my WanderingAus GeoMobile TB and a couple of other travellers in for a visit before grabbing them back again.
There was a pencil in the cache but no pencil sharpener, so I dropped in a pencil sharpener.
Having found all six of the feeder caches, I worked out the wrong coordinates and headed off to the first wrong spot for a hunt. After half an hour of fruitless searching I had a re-think, thought I'd spotted the trick, and headed off to another wrong spot for another 30 minute fruitless search. Time got the better of me, so I headed for home, emailed the cache owner, and less than a minute later spotted the real trick to the puzzle (I think). Another hunt tomorrow will tell one way or the other, but it was still a very interesting afternoon of caching.

Thought I'd get our for an afternoon of walking and geocaching , so I looked for an area of high cache density and found this spot. Great area for a walk, a little hot today but there was a nice breeze when it opened up a little. No problem finding any of the caches... TFT series.
Most of the hides in this series have been well selected. This one is no exception. TNLNSL
left geokids at bottom under tree for wolves, did this one on my own. Tnln, tftc..
Last series for "Carpobrotus Virescens" - Hope it is correct... Smile. Signed the log. Thanks AusTrackers.
Continuint deeper into the forest and the final clue is found for this series. So was very sad when, having a well earned rest to work out the puzzle section, found that one of the cards was missing. So packed the remaining ones away and set off to commence the next series of caches starting nearby.
Thanks again, AusTrackers.
Thanks again, AusTrackers.
When returning from VIRE we somehow ended up on a track running parallel, to the main track.
So we made a slight diversion to get back on route to find the Cache.
Onto the FINAL !!!

Out caching with The Machman. Somehow we managed to end up on the wrong track again! (making a habit of this) So we managed to follow an animal track 100mt to wend our way to this cache. Hopefully back on target now? Off to the final!
This Regional park is a great way to spend a plesant mild winters afternoon strolling along the pathways and disturbing the native animals. As usual, caches are in excellent condition but clue cards are running very low. TFTC
Found this one easily however left clue printout for Carpobrotus virescens home so for the last one we have to come back (may be tomorrow). Thanks for the cache.
Well I messed up and set GPS for next closest after Carpo and wandered into Carobrotos a quick look there and continued on to here now to walk all the way back to Vire.
Please excuse the cut and paste for this series.
We had a couple of days before the kids finished school for 2 weeks so it was decided to hit a few caches and get some much needed exercise while we were at it.
This series fits the bill with plenty of hills to get the blood pumping and some amazing views to help take your breath away.
All caches were well placed and easy enough to find once the GPS settled and that is what you need when doing a series like this.
This is the type of walk and thought that makes AusTrackers caches a cut above the norm, the efforts you guys go to! it makes doing your caches a pleasure and always a sense of an achievement at the final goal.
Thanks for making the game so much fun.

Back up the hill today to find this one well worth the climb, great view across the valley. Dropped off Aurics Ambition to contiue its travels. TFTH
Found with McQuillanB. Wish we had gone up to this one first BEFORE going down to the next.

Final one in the series for me before going for the bonus. Somehow I'd completely left all details about 'brotus' at home so had to go for the final with only five of the series found. A great piece of natural camouflaging is going on with white ants making a nest around the cache box. If it doesn't get found regularly it could completely disappear. TFTC.
Finally got back up here to continue the series. Late in the afternoon, plenty of Kangaroos watching us. Found without any trouble.
Another one in the set.
This is the sort of caching we love.
Your wife must by now be wondering where all her Kitchen containers are going.
We took the Everglades Geocoin and will move it along soon.

Lucky last! That finishes the series! It's been an amazing walk on a beautiful day. Took a wrong turn to this cache though and ended up having to scour up a steep slope to reach her. Overall, a most excellent series. All the clues from the previous caches have been put together and it's now time for one last leg up the hill to the puzzle cache. Fingers crossed for a ftf! ^_^ Thank you!
