Unfortunate defeat with this one today. Looked in every likely spot I could but the grass is long and green at the moment, so it might be hidden from my view. Will return again so that I can complete the hints to finish the series
 
02-Jul-23
Found on a nice sunny Winters day. Took the Geokids for a long walk, and hunted these down! Log on this one was very wet and soggy.

18-Oct-20
As per my Note for CPS-05, I was not willing to go bush-bashing for this one either...
Thanks for the placing the cache, anyway, Chwiliwr. I might look again another time. In cooler weather. With a friend. And a first aid kit Razz
 
28-Sep-20
And now to find the final one with clues from these first three ...
 
28-Sep-20
Got it Smile
 
06-Sep-20
We approached this one from the north and had to navigate the bush, only to see the path further south. A lily was out in flower near GZ.

A nice walk on a windy day around the Spectacles. In the end, the front come through and we got wet to the core. Still a fun afternoon.

Staying in the area this weekend in order to attend the WAGB event in Rockingham. That was yesterday, and today I am out on a long looping drive to pick up a few more caches in the area Smile Stopped off here for a walk around the bush and what a lovely spot it is too. A few cars parked up but virtually no-one seen out on the trails so could walk and search with ease Smile Geohound had a great time too! This was the third of the CPS hides and it was a nice quick find. Final clue grabbed (not literally by the way, I have been taking photos of the cards). All ok here, no problems at all - TFTC
 
10-Sep-17
Thank you! On my way home from wagb I stopped in to find a little more of the cps series. Happy to make the find here. Cache in good condition.
 
04-Sep-17
Took the opportunity today while the geo kids were busy to come and grab a few caches that they are not up to yet. Lovely afternoon for a walk with the geo dog. All easy finds and all caches in great condition. Tfth

25-Feb-17
Continuing my efforts to slowly knock off all the 'CPS' hides around the place I had these on the to-do list after an event in Rockingham. Bit of a warm day but a little sweat on the brow never hurt anybody.

A quick fid here once at GZ. Only 2 clue cards left in this cache. A nice handy seat to sit down and work out the final here, pity I left my reading glasses in the car. I think I worked it out though.

Chwiliwr I found your cache at 5:09pm, this was the 8th of 9 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 3877. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Quick found on our family trip into this area.
Thank you
 
28-Jan-17
Again thoroughly enjoying the CPS series it wasn't long before I noticed a potential hiding place and sure enough my GPSr confirmed it.
Now to work out the final's coordinates, where will it be?? Aha not what I was expecting but you never can tell Smile
Off we go...
 
17-Dec-16
Nice spot this one. The log is in good condition and has plenty of scope for future visitors. Thanks for setting up the series Chwiliwr. A few too many wriggly lines across the sandy tracks for our liking but Patch was aware and sent Spot in with the heavy and noisy boots.
 
15-Nov-16
Found CPS-06. TNLN SL TFTH Chwiliwr.

After being rained out the day before I returned bringing much nicer weather. After parking up I continued on my nice quiet trail. Really enjoyed this series with good paths to follow and not much rubbish laying around. No Roos were spotted but plenty of bird life. Loved the informative signs along the walk TFTC and Series Chwiliwr grabbed the clue and now to workout the final.

Beautiful area in winter thanks for the find
 
03-Jul-16
Headed out with Barnzy12 today for another run around the suburbs to clear the map.

As usual I was driver and Steve was navigator, in true form Steve loading coords wrong on the multi caches and gave minimal warning on where and when to turn.

On the plus side Steve had moved back to the IPhone club after a giving Samsung a go. Made things a little easier despite now only having cachley not the usual app anymore.

All the caches were found in good condition and in the obvious place. TFTH TFTC.

LTFTC! Spent the day out with Cravo10 between anketell road in mandogalup and baldivis further south cleaning up a bunch of caches that have been missed or published since our last visit to the area, we had a pretty good day out cleaning up a large number of caches and small series that have been in the to do list for far too long.

After having phone problems for a couple of weeks, switching to Samsung after some poor product service from Apple and then switching back to iPhone after having a number of issues completing my geocaching with the Samsung and the standard app, which is completely useless.

Now being on cachly is great it's like the old paid app, a few minor tweaks and it will be there!! One day the boys might get me to finally convert to geosphere!

We started the day grabbing a
Number of caches around the Kwinana loop trail (KLT), which was awesome as we haven't seen something like that in suburbia for a while, we then headed to Wellard where we picked up a number of park and grabs along with a few walks.

We then headed further south to complete the caches for kids trail and then finally back to anketell road to complete another leg of the CPS trail (been too long between drinks), which was a nice walk and a longer walk back to the final!

All caches were found in good condition, we enjoyed the variety today with a couple of walks, field puzzle, letterbox hybrid, and a nice multi to complete for the day.

As usual it wouldn't be a Barnzy and Cravo caching day without me stuffing up the co ords for a multi or puzzle (this time a multi) which had us looking some 50m from GZ!! And the odd piece of poor navigation (turn left, and then point backwards to the turn we "missed"!!

Thanks to all of the COs

We weren't prepared for geocaching today so didn't have a pen! but found none the less!
 
08-Jun-16
Found it after a freaky trek through long grass. Think i came in the wrong way. Found it nevertheless but there was no log. Sat on the log to work out the final coords and there was the log book wedged between a gap in the log. Rescued it, signed it and got the details. Tftc!
 
28-May-16
Found it. Bit wet!
