###Cache Owner Action Needed###
This cache has been brought to my attention as likely to be missing.
After a string of successful Finds, it has now had a string of DNFs. I agree that this certainly suggests that something has happened at the cache location which requires investigation by the CO, gradem.
The cache will be disabled and I'll check back in 30 days to see if either
- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated in a Note log here, when action will be taken
**If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then we can only assume that the cache has been abandoned and, regrettably, it will be archived.**
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.
Thank you

Spent a good amount of time on, under and at the sides of the structure to no avail.
Finally called it quits when a large spider dropped out of its home courtesy of me prodding into every nook and cranny with a stick.

This was my first attempt at geocaching. No idea what I'm looking for. Found lots of empty coffee cups in the garden. Hopefully I'll get better at this...
We headed to Leederville to do a quick item-shop so saw there were a couple of caches near the Station. Wet morning made our initial search very disappointing to come up empty-handed and miserable. Decided to pull the pin and make our purchase. Returning to the station, we decided to have another crack. We thought the terrain was a 1 so it had to be wheelchair accessible but ended up just relying on the great coordinates to make the find. Thanks for the new log here. All's in great shape.
Nice quick find here while my kitty is at an appointment at Perth Cat Hospital. Only quick as I read some helpful hints before beginning my search, thanks previous posters tftc and cool find!
The log was full so we replaced it.
We took a photo of the old log for memories.

Found it it was easy, couldn't of done it without the picture way down the list though... Watch out for spider webs!
we found it but there is not much space left in the log! couldn’t have found it without photos, thanks guys
Exploring Leederville this morning on our way into the city. This one was a relatively quick find with the help of a previous log. TFTC gradem

IN town for my final specialist appointment, grabbed this one on the way home.

Thanks gradem for bringing me to this location. I found the cache at 14:10:00. This was my Find 9 for today out of a Total number of 9 Finds and 0 DNF for for this Caching Outing. The cache was found in Good Condition and I returned the cache as I found it.
This find brings my total number of Finds to 4556.

We thought it quite exposed. I doubt it has always been in that spot. However we put it back where we found it. TFTC
Headed up to the Eagles training session, and couldn't get a couple of caches while in the area, Tftc.
Great geocache! Very challenging and tricky. Just remember that the clouds are really beautiful in Perth!
Rather quick find after choosing the „right side“. Need to be tall or use a tool to get to it. Tftc The-Shredder
I left my GPS at home today, so had to resort to using my phone to find a few caches [:o)]. After the walk across the overpass, i ended up finding this one quite quickly thanks to a few photos that have been posted

I am visiting Perth, staying with my sister in West Leederville, and sought out this cache which eluded me on my previous visit in July. Success this time, thanks to the photos of the cache which meant that I knew what to look for! Thank you Gradem for installing and maintaining this cache.
Thank you! I really wanted to fill in a day on my calendar, and this one was conveniently on my way home. I decided to give it a go even though I'd DNF'ed here previously. I admit it took me a while to find as my preconceived ideas led me astray, but as soon as I spotted it, I couldn't figure out how I'd missed it.
Was dark and couldn't find it. Will come back in the next few days for another crack
A nice quick find here today, and an almost blank log sheet! The cache blends in nicely and is located in a good hiding spot, away from passing traffic. I had an appointment nearby mid-morning so it was a great opportunity to look for this cache at an off-peak time. Thank you for the hide gradem.
No luck for me today. Perhaps I shouldn't have picked morning peak hour to look? Will be back to try again another time.
This was a confusing clue. Made harder with the fact there was loose rubbish everywhere.
Pretty strange though!

First of the new year. Second time here. Can't figure out how I missed it last time. Didn't even bother unfurling the log as everyone is saying it is totally chockers, so I too took a photo. Thanks for the cache.
Nicely camoed against its backdrop. Took a while to get the right angle for the find. Didn't have a replacement log on us, sorry. TFTC!
