No action for four months on needs maintenance log. Maybe time this one was archived.
Noble norwell took me here there to find cache, couldn't find it, noble norwell have confirmed it is missing
Found it! Well hidden was our first find ever so didn't exactly know what we were looking for my boyfriend tried to get the cache out for a good five minutes it was stuck in the hiding spot i honestly didn't think it was it till he got it free and opened it up! Hint: corner. Exciting stuff
The day started with cloud cover and a spit of rain, as we travelled to Dawesville.
But it soon warmed up, and became very humid.
We travelled the western side of the estuary, picked up a few caches and some
solved puzzles along the way. We were unable to attempt some caches, due to the
high muggle activities with the long weekend.
This cache was well hidden, but an easy find.
Thanks for the cache, Luke_d.

Up to Mandurah to do a few caches today. Thanks for bringing here in this series around this area.TFTC
Dragged muggle partner up this way to be my driver and helper while I add some more smileys to my total
I really was undecided about doing this one as didn't want to spend alot of time looking as still had to drive the 90km home but so glad I did as muggle partner found it while I was trying not to trip over the branches close by
Was a bit difficult to get cache in hand but finally managed, signed log and replaced.
Last find for the day
Find 20/20 and 3 dnf

Last day of the year and probably the last cache for 2013. Found while out riding early in the morning.
Glad spotted it otherwise I will never found it... Signed the log at 11:14am. Thanks Luke d
Found while completing a 37 kilometre circuit of Mandurah on our bikes.
We really enjoyed visiting all of our "old" haunts, so much has changed since we left here in 1997.
thanks.

What better way to spend a sunny Sunday than to go geocaching.
So with OOH YEH & Kristybelle, we set out to make a dent in the Mandurah area.
Quick find for us with no spiders or snakes spotted.....thank goodness!

I decided to have a day of geocaching in the mandurah area today. Skippy 46, geodaughter Kristybelle and her 6 year old son came along as well. We had a great day with no DNFS. A quick find for us TFTC Luke d
Out geocaching with my mum OOH YEH and her friend Skippy 46. A quick find TFTH
Out and about exploring Mandurah and surrounds today, this one pops up on the GPSr A quick detour and Jase had this in his hands in no time.
TFTC Luke_d [^] It seems the container was well and truly stuck but with a bit of force we managed to get it free.

We must of looked like crazy ppl looking through the bush while swatting mozzies every two seconds... after getting eaten alive we (2missk's) decided to give up... then i spotted it, why didnt i look there first!!!! TFTC
Realised this one was right behind where we were looking for it... very obvious! TFTC
17/ 19 for today. This was laying on the ground- not sure where it is supposed to be? Put it in an obvious but less obvious spot.
Followed the GPS into the bush for a loop first, before realising bush bashing was not required for this cache. Mickeydv found this cache no problems, although wandering around in his awful beanie I tease him that he could be suspected of some of the graffiti at GZ. Thanks for the cache Luke d.
A quick find, seems McFonz & Mrs Felix had cleaned up most of the spiders webs. TFTH.
Today in the area to tackle caches with MCFONZ (visiting from Albany) this was on the very long list for the day.
Was a bit confused here as I also had the GCA listing in my GPSr at a different co-ord?
Seeing as the other has no finds assume you changed your mind and listed this one.. Guessing the other needs Archiving...
Anyways an extremely quick find here, think the quickes of the day. Lots of graffiti in the area, not sure if that was before or after, may pay to check on the cache.

Thanks for quick n easy find, didn't appreciate walking through the spiders web though LOL.
Picked up geoson's friend after finishing the Christmas shopping, and he seemed keen to find out more about geocaching, so took the opportunity to grab this cache and another nearby. He actually found this one before me - beginner's luck! Signed the log and replaced the cache. Thanks.

Not too hard after reading the description and knowing what I was looking for. GZ put me into the scrub a couple of times.
was not hidden too well, but because of its location, Doubt people will spot it by accident.
Found with wot.
Easy find because it was sticking out and easily spotted. Just a tad too big for the hiding spot, I think.

Accurate coordinates and some comments in logs resulted in a quick find. TFTC Luke_d
Was on a maintenance run of my caches and thought it a good opportunity to find some of the closest to home caches that have so far eluded me. This was the first, an easy find. It is NOT in the sprinkler.
Thanks for the hunt Luke_d.
Thanks for the hunt Luke_d.
Found it, after walking through a big sticky spiders web! Cache was completely exposed so I hid it as well as I could. It's still peeking out so at risk of being muggled, given the amount of rubbish nearby. TFTH.
Our third find on our way into Mandurah for a days caching. This was a quick find in a quiet area. A lot of rubbish around gz so we are hoping it doesn't mean it is a hang out spot for locals who might spot the container.
Arrived close to the GZ and was pleased to see that there were no muggles to be seen, perhaps being a Sunday afternoon has its advantages. The GPSr took a while to settle down, but once it did it pointed to the location where the cache was hidden. A quick find, signed the log. Thanks Luke d for the cache

I was on the way back to the city and had just done Wileyclan's 'Welcome from the south' cache when I noticed that the coordinates for this cache had been updated so I turned around and headed south again to have another look. It turns out I nearly found it the last time as I had looked at the corner and the first panel but didn't go any further along so missed seeing the cache then. *FTF* 1.25pm
Thanks Luke_d for the cache.
NOTE there is an ants nest quite near the cache so watch where you stand when looking for and finding the cache as they bite like crazy.

I came down to the area to deliver some stuff and thought that I would do the new caches in the area and started with this one. I didn't realise that it was cross listed with another site. I arrived at GZ and found a drain within a metre and thought that it might be a nano that I was looking for so searched the metal grill with no success so widened the search to the vegetation but still no cache. I ended up playing ball with a friendly dog after a bit so wasted a bit of time here.
