Just finished up work for the day in the area and wanted to make a quick find before heading home. Wasn't too many option at the coords and a quick find was made. TFTC Zodiakhorizon.
Was a bit rainy so it was flooded haha. Need to take my geoshoes off to get to it
Found within 10 seconds, because the cache was fairly visible. We were SO caution not to drop the cache in the water (we didnt though!!) A nice nano find and T4TC!!!!!
G'Day Zodiakhorizon. SVKR_WA found your cache on 1 July 2016. This find brings our finds count to 1381.
We have signed the log and replaced the hide as found.
Very cautious - terrified I was going to drop it
Thanks for bringing us to this place.

Found this one rather quickly on approach, very well hidden, but only a couple of spots here.

Originally found under family caching name clan-wallace, now re logging under own name.
I don't know why a previous finder thinks this one needs maintenance. Yes the nano is a little rusty on the base but it is still magnetic & opens easily. Perhaps it has already been 'maintained', anyway it's fine now.signed log CW to save space. TFTC
A sneaky hide here bit a systematic search of GZ soon had this one to hand .
With the weather starting to get a bit better and the days lengthening out, I headed away from home early this morning to grab some smileys on the way to work. This was one of the targets for the day!

Heading home, enough light left to grab a cache.
Was wondering where this cache was going to be when I parked up but as I approached GZ I realised what it would be on.
Log was wet so have replaced with new log sheet.

This one scared me a little... id be the blonde thatd drop it. But i didnt THANK GOSH! Quick little find. Tftc
Wow, there are some shoebox style houses out here. I was surprised at how much this area has grown. This looked like an original nano complete with original log which surprised me given the precarious location. There was some room still at the end of the log so I signed my initials before replacing. Thanks Zodiakhorizon.
On the road with JoshyJayPlay doing a Sunday cache run.....picked up most caches today...TFTC
No luck today.. Going to assume the water level is too high.. Will return after the rain.
With the day really starting to warm up by this stage, we got a little bit sneaky and drove right up to GZ.
We made a nice quick find, although extracting it was another story. Nothing a good multi tool couldn't fix though.
Thanks for the cache zodiakhorizon!

Headed out with MNS13 & our youngest today to find a couple caches, in between trying to remain cool in this heat MNS13 was quickly onto this one, no need to even get the kids out of the car... Extraction did cause a bit of a problem, lucky we had a handy tool for the job [^] TFTC Zodiakhorizon!
Found by my sister MalNatBur while put grabbing a few caches before picking the kids up from school. Took one look at the structure n thought great hope we don't lose it. TFTH
What an optimistic way to start a day's caching - with some ZH Nanos! But it sure does help to be in company with a previous finder! This was the fourth and last of the ones attempted. Will have to save the rest of these little blighters for another day.
Thanks for the cache Zodiakhorizon.

Out for the arvo to clear up the virus's and this was last on the list. Had a quick find here but retrieving took awhile, signed the log then had another problem returning it. Sorted it all out and its ready for the next person to catch the virus. I'm starting to like these virus's

Out with skippy 46 to try and find the last 5 of the nano virus. we found 4 and im sure the last one was missing. we found this one really quick but the hardest part was getting it out as it seemed to be stuck in its hidey hole. With a few differant tools we got it out and signed the log and hopefully it wont be so hard for the next person to get it out. TFTC Zodiakhorizon
After having done home owner jobs for 3 days in a row on the Easter Holiday weekend I decided I deserve Easter Monday off and enjoy the day doing some caching so I didn't say no this time when mistraluna asked if I wanted to come out to play.
I think we picked the sneaky series!

Caught the train up today and was picked up by Me&B at Cockburn station. Found this one on the second lap around the area. Another sneaky hide. Thanks Zodiakhorizon
While out and about in the Hammond Park area we decided to scout this one out. A quick search and it was soon found on the 2nd look. Sl TFTC ZH
With Keego and both of us missed it first time it was spotted by Keego after a short while.

Another Saturday night cache with BarnZy12. tftc
After 3 months with no finds, we were about to give up when cravo10 spotted it with torchlight. Great hide

Took advantage of the 2012 leap year to find some additional caches. Slowly working through the Nano - Virus and in doing so attempting to kill the virus off forever. I eventually got on top of this one after an extraction problem or two.
I think this only leaves the Nano-Kids Night Hunt. I will need to rent some kids before I tackle it, preferable kids that know where to look!!!!!
Thanks Zodiakhorizon.

Joined forces with iluvtrekking for a caching foray in the area. Tricky nano and as others have logged it is the extraction that is crucial here.
Currently on holidays, I have been doing lots of chores etc around home as the geowife was still at work. Finally on a piblic holiday she was home and we had nothing planned so I took off caching for the morning. The plan was to try and grab some nanos. I love nanos as they are ususally easy to find
I arrived at gound zero only to have a muggle park his van directly over the road from me. He looked at me a couple of times as I walked around the structure so I wandered off. When he went away I came back for another look without joy. I thought about it for a moment and checked out some more spots. Sure enough, there was the cache. I used the back of the keytags that I had to extract it from its hide and got out of there as fast as I could before the muggle started checking me out again.
Thanks once more Zodiak Horizon
Cheers

Quick find. Spotted the nano immediately on arrival at GZ. Tricky to remove and replace. SL. TFTH Zh.
While the park was empty today, there was a lot of traffic movement around courtesy of the neighbours. I missed the cache on my first sweep of the object, and was just perusing the previous logs, when I looked up and spotted it right in front of me! Excellent!
Luckily I had my extraction tool with me this time, and it wasn't long before I had the cache in hand (but the tool nearly fell in the drink...).
Thanks for the cache ZH!

Found during a morning caching run with Mr & Mrs FelixII. This one had me stumped but the expertise of the Felix' paid dividends.
Met up today with Tanzanite1982 to join forces for a morning caching. 3 pairs of eyes better than 2, you know.
Well after her previous DNF, here Mrs Felix didn't really even look. Left it to Tanzanite and Mr Felix. Almost gave up, and Mr Felix came up trumps. I looked there previously!!!!! (foot stamping)
Hmmmm TFTC (maybe, sort of) Zodiakhorizon. That was

We thought that we would tackle some nanos today and we were pleasantly surprised that we not only found most of them but we had a really good day doing it .
We knew where this had to be hidden but it still took a few minutes to locate it.
Thanks ZH

With all the overnight rain we had there was a large puddle around this one. I got wet feet retrieving it. It proved a little difficult to extract the cache from it's location, the little sucker just didn't want to let go.

Thanks LCollinge for the check up.... will do a run around on the Nano Virus/Verse series in teh next week or so and maybe add a few more!
One is like a gold fish in a bowl finding and then extracting this little fellow. Mugglers everywhere!! Log book completely filled. TFTC
I checked today on my way past & this one is definitely still there, in original hiding spot that I found a few months ago. Just for those wondering :)
The Geoson has his learners Permit, what better way to give him some driving experience than to cache. So as the rest of the family got ready for Sunday Trading, we headed out .

I had a quick search at what looked like a likely spot, but the search was interupted by lots of muggles converging on the park, will be back on another day.

Yep, another pesky nano!!!!!!!! This one being more peskier than the last. Not sure how me missed this one since above there are a couple of finds since I logged.
Well deserved of the crow eater nano rant. You know you want it:
Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

Oh dear three of us couldn't see anything even no clue/hint grrrrrr.... LOL.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Out on a caching run into the Southern Suburbs with Everlasting and Team Astro.
No luck for our group here! Even phoned a friend but still no luck. The object was full of water so possibly the cache has been washed away?

Logistics relatively tricky but found it pretty quickly. One of many in a four hour ZH nano-a-thon.TFTC

Had tried for the two caches between Infection and here but this was the first one found. Coordinates had us at the wrong object but eventually ignored that and soon found the nano.
Thanks for the cache.
