No luck here

Looked for ages!

Well hidden daz89. A good thing that I had tissues as everything was wet. Dried it out as best I could. The writing material was OK being plastic but the others were wet. Thanks for a good hide.

What a find, thank you for this one Had to go away from the pin point location, but is there, step a tiny bit away from where you are, it's easy once you take a few steps back.

thanks for the cache

Out with geo-sister Elliejay2024 enjoying a walk through some beautiful bush on a lovely sunny day. TFTC

TFTH Out with JaypreOut with Lego mandalorian helmet and green personIn with a wasp and bouncy ballHidden better now

We picked up many a rock but no cache was found

Easy find tfct

A treacherous hike through the bush made the cache ever so sweetTftc. Found it with @chrishere

TFTC @daz89 !! Found with @tman290

TFTC! Took skunkfunk and I way too long

Tftf

Great hint tftc

Nice quick find signed log and replaced tftc

Nice quick find here today, glad to avenge a previous DNF from a while back now TFTC

Thought this was going to be somewhat east but didnt end up finding it despite the cache size, might be back for another look some day:)

Tftc

After expanding our search slightly we had the cache in hand

TFTC. It was exposed.

Easily visible on approach. Signed, returned and added a bit of camo. Tftc

Hide very exposed & wet inside, but Log is dry. Have replaced & camo'd

Quick find just after footy, mighty Roleystone Colts for the win and a quick cache too, cheers for the cache

Easy find, thanks!!

Thanks

My GPS was bouncing around at GZ, spotted it after widening my search a bit. TFTC!

Great work OP. Very tricjy

Good hide, still intact

Up and over the fence we went and arrived at GZ a short time later.
Had to expand our search area a little to find the cache but got there in the end.

Out early with the geo-twins heading north to grab some caches around Wanneroo and Joondalup before the lunchtime event.
Traversed the suburbs of Caversham, Fremantle, Canning Vale & Byford on the way home.
The evening was spent at the second event for the day before staking a spot to watch the Rocko family fireworks and calling it a night.
A fantastic end to a bumper year has me claiming 56 finds, 8 adventure labs, 2 events attended and 0 DNF’s.

Thanks daz89 for placing Lightning Park for me and others to find.
I added my name to the log at 14:35 on 31/12/2022.
This is find number 6369 for me.

All in tact here TFTC

Found

Found!

Too well camouflaged

Quick little unplanned find so couldn’t sign the log!

Found

Very good hide, needs a bit of attention due to being water logged; tried to sign but too wet, we emptied the water out to help!

Was a bit wet inside including paper.
Didn't write in log but novel cache

Found it! TFTC.

Found in open close to GZ, very wet. Put in a new log and bag, and returned to GZ. Tftc

Found it! Good hide!

Tftc.

Liked the hide. Very creative.

Need to explore this area more.

Tree down in the area.

Easy find
Water-soaked log.
Left a new little notebook to sign.
Thanks

??

It's too wet to sign

Quick find

Log was too wet to log name

Found this one while walking in the beautiful bush land with the geodog. Easy find, log needs a hairdryer to remove the moisture. Didn’t have one on me so signed and replaced with a few more coverings than I found.

It's a little soggy, but found it! TFTC ️

Son opened the app to see what was close by. We had to take a detour but only grabbed one as it started raining. Luckily we had this one in hand quite quickly before the rain hit

We finally found some time for a walk through this lovely bush. Great camo, but cache isn't water tight so insides are a bit damaged. TFTC daz89

Left a fun sticker

Found it. TFTC daz89. Took a while, but I finally got it. Nice hide.

Awesome hide!

That's the sneaky spirit!

Nicely done .

TFTC. Found while visiting Lightning Swamp for the first time

Too many possibilities

Cool container! Found it after a quick hunt. Lots of stuff still inside too! TFTC!

Thank you! I headed out for a cache or ten and enjoyed walking around this area. Happy to make the find here.

Nice sized cache. Was wondering if it would still be here with all the trees down. But it's tucked in nicely. TFTC

Easy find-made a swap.a bit water damaged.watch out for many newly planted saplings (don't tread on them!) and watch out for stabbing your eyes on stray twigs! TFTC

Tough find for that one but got there in the end.

Easily found as was quite exposed. Have covered it up a bit now. TFTC

Great design!

12/4/20

Was unable to find this one, gps lead me to different spots, will be back another time.

GPS was a bit off, but we got there eventually. Cool container.

TFTC!

TFTF nice one to find, once we used our common sense GPS was off a bit

We walked right past it before rechecking and seeing the cunning hide. Thanks for the interesting cache.

this was a quick find while collecting caches here. TFTC daz89

Collecting smilies NOR. TFTC

Find 3 of 11 with 2 DNFs on a little ride around Beechboro and surrounds.

Mrs. O. found this one quickly.

TFTC daz89!

A very clever cache.
Out and about NOR collecting smilies.
TFTC daz89 this is find # 6743 for us.

Nice bit of camouflage. TFTC

Day 285 of our 366 day straight challenge. Up this way for day 2 of a course so squeezing in a few caches beforehand.

First find for this morning, exactly where the GPS said it should be. Log signed and cache replaced as found. Tftc

I was here with my grandson for a Tball carnival today. I took a little time out to go find this cache.

The location GPS was spot on, and it was a quick find. The cache was returned as found..


TFTC...

Out with B12 TFTH

A beautiful Day to be out collecting caches, last day of the caching year, an event to attend NOR so had to try and cleanup a bunch of the map.

Had a successful day and a nice time at the event chatting to all the regulars.

Thanks for a nice day out.

Always wanted to check out this area. TFTC

I have a couple of hours free this afternoon so just having a drive around this area to clear up the map a little and add some more smilies I ended up with 9 finds and 1 DNF so not bad at all Spent a good minutes here searching in the wrong place used on my interpretation of the hint. Turns out I was half right, lol. Area was a bit of a mess so wasn't sure if the cache was still in play or not, but just when I was thinking of giving it up a bit more prodding around finally uncovered the hide. Phew. And only a few steps away from GZ as well, lol. All ok here in the end - TFTC

TFTC nice easy one for the first day of spring

Was in the area picking up some lego, thought I would pick up a couple of caches while in the area, tftc.

Quick find TFTH

Out for a few more smilies this after noon, a clever hide here, took a little while but we got there in the end and we can now cross it off the list TFTC

Found, but I forgot my writing stick. I’ll pop back another time. TFTC!

Had an hour to kill while the missus was shopping so what is one to do? Grab some smiley's of course. Spent a about ten minutes rummaging around here, decided to move on.

daz89 I couldn't find your cache, this was my 1st DNF for the day. I did have 2 finds today so all is not lost.

TFTH

Tftc - took a friend for a cache or two...
Found once we widened our search - made a bit harder by torchlight

Found after widening my search a little.
Nicely done.
Thanks daz89

Took a while but found it. TFTC

Searched for a while but I had the right idea. TFTC

Time to kill, easy find

Awesome! TFTC. Found this without looking at the description or hint, if there is one. Nice not to be looking like a sad middle aged man tramping through the bush! The cache is in good condition and there is plenty of loot to be swapped.

The first find on our way around the park. Interesting area with a high water level at the moment, T4tc

Cool find! Took us a while, TFTC

After a long search we found the cache in the simplest spot, we over thought the clue!! TFTC

Great container! Thank you for a great cache. My kids swapped toys and we had a play on the little play ground near the ovals.

Nice quick one here when GPS finally settled down. All ok here TFTC daz89

Found it, quick find but a walk to get there

TFTH daz89 Started a bit later this morning than planned!! Lovely out in the sunshine though so hope the morning continues as per my plan. TB taken, LS and cache replaced. Clever hide, not what I was expecting!

Great hide. Tftc
