We didn't find this one today - however was raining quite hard so we only looked briefly.
The name threw me on this one. I spent a few minutes searching the nearby objects then I notices it was a 'small' container and there wasn't anywhere to hide a small where I was searching so I looked around and spotted a likely candidate and yes that was it.

It was a quick find, but took longer to replace while waiting for neighbors taking out their bins, thanks.
GPS a little out so was first looking at rhe wrong host, but then quickly saw something out of place TFTC
It's a bit obvious so I wonder how long it will last this time.
Left a TB as a surprise for someone.

I'm always hesitant when looking for these caches.. I'd hate to damage something I shouldn't. A lovely park stop on this sweltering day.

Great camouflage! A quick find tonight after a brief detour on my way home from work. The park was very quiet, which made my search easier. Thank you for the cache ruffdawg.

New cache after the old got muggled
New cache in play and new co-ords relocating cache 32 meters from original location, hopefully less visible to muggles
Unfortunately this hide has vanished
Hopefully I will have a suitable replacement soon.

Having a nice hour exploring these two local parks; we're over from the UK for a month and staying local. We'll be emigrating out here later in the year so for now we're just picking up a few random caches on our travels (got to save some for when we live here, lol). Took a few minutes to twig this clever hide, and then quite a long time to actually extract the container - it's no longer stuck to the lid so quite tricky to pull up from the bottom. Tiny fingers would help! We managed it eventually but the CO might like to check this one out and repair / modify to assist future finders. Our 20th Oz find TFTC
Lots of muggles using the park this sunny afternoon. Managed to grab the cache discreetly. TFTC
Find 4 of 14 today.
Had a couple of hours to ride from Trigg into the city and pick up some caches along the way. Quick find here of an unusually hidden cache. Very wet inside, the cap could do with a rubber seal on it. TFTC.

Love it, brilliant idea!!! Just saying, a little bit of water got into it and the pencil is ruined, but the sheet is alright...
Looking around the area and found this! Must be a place of bad reception because I started off going somewhere weird!
Found it within seconds but because were so derpy took us five minutes to find out how to get the log bottle out. Wow, we're so clueless. Tftc
Found it - had to be a bit sneaky as there were lots of muggles around lol -thanks
TFTC easy find but stealth required today as lots of muggles in the park

An early start for a morning of caching, in the Innaloo area.
We visited lots of parks, bushland and the local shopping center,
where we found a good variety of hides.
Thanks for the cache, ruffdawg.

Kicked it to see if it would fall over the first time and it didn't. Came back a minute later and figured it out. If you think about it's location in proximity to other larger objects you might realise it has no other function. Signed MBS
Replaced with a new cache container and different camo but still in the same location.

Sorry to say that this one has been muggled, and all that was left was the lid, complete with camo still attached. Will need to be replaced.
Headed northwards with OOH YEH in the drivers seat and me as navigator, picking up from where we left off last time we were up this way. Found the remains of the cache container. Sorry, but didn't have a replacement cache with me today. Thanks for the find though ruffdawg
Out on a day of caching with mistraluna and we had another successful day. We ended up with 34 finds and a few that appear to be missing. we found what was left of the container obviously the cache has been muggled again TFTC ruffdawq
Replaced cache - please ensure that you are careful to cover when you replace : )
Went for a look after dark and found the log and a pencil just lying on the ground, no mint tin! Will return items when new cache is in place
Nice quick find once at the GZ. Luckily the area was quiet this afternoon so made the hunt, sign and replace a doddle. TFTC.
Spotted this clever camo fairly quickly. Found while out and about on my bike at dawn this morning. TFTC
I too found this one on the ground. once logged I put it back where I think it goes
Looking for a few local caches after a second year old's birthday party...
Camo cache laying on the ground about 1m from GZ...now hidden in obvious pozzy..

Really liked the camo scuba tank container! And nice to find a brand new log to sign. TFTC
Had a look around the big tree near the GZ but had no luck. Lots of nooks and crannies where I thought it could be but to no avail.
This used to be my local park and I have done many, many laps around it with a dog so it was nice to return.
Nice spot and an elegant but simple camouflaged hide. thanks.
