One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Will get there soon, a spare is found

Disabled for maintenance

Doing a run down stock road to find what I need to, to clear the map and get 30 for the day as it's the last day in November and I need 30 more for a 400 find month. Stumbled across this one so can log the find the "cap" seems to be broken leaves the cache exposed a little too much.

Found with cravo10, please read cravo's comment for concern relating to cache. TFTC

Found it. Awesome view

Easy find - almost got blown away!!

went to sign the log when I realised I have already found this one 3/8/14

Great place for a geocache !

TFTC.8.25. From Perth to Melbourne is our last vacation journey in Australia, along this route, we look for caches. Greetings from the Netherlands

Tricky little hide but managed to find it after a good search around. TFTH Keepsmilin

On a morning run to collect some caches toward my target for the month...TFTC

I parked here to do a bike run of some of the caches over the road at Beeliar Regional Park. I wasn't sure if there was anyone watching from their cars in the carpark and was dismayed when on returning the sneaky cache to its hiding spot a guy came running down to me. I thought I had either been busted or it was another cacher come to say "busted". But the guy wanted me to witness the whale in the water (we think it was a humpback) only 200m out. He thought he was going mad but barnacles, blowhole and all it was there. Massive. It seem to be taking shelter near the Marine Complex. So combined with finding this cache, a great way to finish a caching day.

Headed out today with Jinta29 and Welsy21 to grab a few caches before the Event meeting.
We decided to clean up our smilies around Woodman point as we each had a varying level of completenes..

On the way past, we grabbed this one on the way.
Nice sneaky hide thanks Pranksters again

I was quite annoyed with myself the other afternoon after coming to this spot. I didn't check my phone to see if there was one here, as I was too busy planning where to hide my own here. I then got home and realised that there was one there, and I hadn't found it because I was too pre-occupied...anyways, came past today after completing the remainder of the series and grabbed this one to finish it off. A nice quick grab. While I was here, there were a few tugboats working with a barge about 200m offshore. I sat and watched them for about half an hour before I was on my way. TFTC K & C.

Oooo tricky one. That's 60 for me now. Excellent guys.

Driving back from an overnight stay at Nanna's during which geokids didn't sleep well... they were starting annoy geo-dad. So we pulled in here to stretch our legs with a wander down to the lookout and gather a bit of fresh air.

What a great place for a cache I was thinking... I'll bet someone has one here. So I pulled my phone out and discovered it had a flat battery... Hmm where would I put a cache around here. With just a bit of a look around I spotted a likely location and sure enough there it was.

Thanks K & C.

Found the little blighter. Thanks.

Great find on the way home tftc

A blustery afternoon, a few fishing muffles, and a quick cache. Nice one!

A quick find with lemongum while touring the area. Had to time the retrieval around the local fishermen.

Found on my way home, a nice stop along the coast. SL TFTH and bringing us here.

As it was fairly hot today, we made our way down to the coast for a morning of caching.
There were not a lot of places to hide a cache at GZ, so this was a quick find.
Many thanks for the cache, Keego_and_Chil.

A quick find while heading home from the city. It is a great view from here and I loved the camo. TFTC Keego and Chil

Nice hide sadly didn't have a pen

Back in the area this morning and decided to call in for a quick search. Found it after a look in just about every other spot. An awesome little lookout with crystal clear water below on a classic spring day.

Great day and finally sunny and warm. Cache was a bit damp so dried it out before putting it back

Out today with Mr Luna Maya. Lucky for us the expected showers mainly kept away - we were able to enjoy the spring sunshine Well, this cache is where the weather turned nasty and there was rain !!! I would have liked to explore the cliffs some more, but not the right weather today Mr Luna Maya found this cache and loved the cammo. He spent a long time trying to ensure that the cache was returned to its correct position ( in the rain) SL TFTC Keego & Chil - great cammo

a great day out cycling for fathers day

Emmapat tripped over mattpat found it. TFTC

out for a fathers day cache after soccer decide to go to Kwinana on our bikes trying to get the ones there and managed to get 27 in all. we also tried to help dad get his 300 th on the way back although he only made it to 296.

happy fathers day ride after soccer on our bikes!!!H F day! TFTC TFTH

going for a ride down Kwinana way and also getting a couple on the way back trying to get dad (as a fathers day present ) to 300 but only got him to 296

Out for a fathers day caching ride and grabbed this one along with about 20 others TFTC TFTH

Didn't find it. Doesn't mean it wasn't there, just that the carpark was full and I couldn't look properly.

Quick find by geojakey.

Enjoying the variety of caches and locations. Found with J+J.au while on a caching holiday to WA. Greetings from N.S.W. SL..TFTC

Didn't take too long befor CIH. Standing on the platform you can see heaps of fish. Great spot. TFTC

Doing the pioneer series on the geo-bike. Final cache in the series for me, sat down in the end, and watched the water. Thanks for the whole series.

Clever! Tftf

The weather is perfect for geobike so decided doing "Poineers" series... only 1 DNF out of 14.... Signed the log. Thanks Keego_and_Chil and Allied Pranksters.

Beautiful hide and a nice surprise to find a blank log sheet. Thanks for replacing before we arrived! A few fishing muggles about but busy and far enough away to enable our search. TFTC!

Cache is back in place, you may need a common caching tool for this now, hopefully it will deter muggles a bit.. Please use stealth...

Down until I get chance to check the cache...

DNF @ 10:00.

Thought I would try to get all the caches around Beeliar Park today. This was supposed to be find #04!

I found what I suspected to be the hide, but it was empty.
Searched around for about 20 minutes, but found nothing...

Good view of the rocks and industry here - I would have liked to listen in on the geology trip a previous log mentioned!

TFTC anyway!

Casually geocaching on my lunchbreak.

Thx to mistaking for alerting us to this one missing.. Will replace soon..

K&C

Replaced cache

Quick dnf here after attending the numbers event in Rockingham. Found the hiding spot, but no cache. Made a call to the CO to verify, and yes, the cache has gone awol. They weren't far away, and had a replacement cache in place before we finished the rest of the series. So back to sign the log before heading home. Thanks Keego and Chil

I have enjoyed reading the history of our Pioneers.Thanks for your research, we too often fly by these areas without a second thought of who or what came before us.

TFTC.Allied Pranksters

A beautiful sunny afternoon so we decided we would return to this area to finish off this series which we started in June but ran out of daylight as we spent too long searching for Pioneers Mahogany (which is still a DNF ).

We arrived in the nearby car park just on sunset which was truly spectacular with a flat ocean, numerous small boats in the bay and no cloud. So we sat and admired the view for a few minutes.

Unfortunately there were 2 muggle fishermen sitting just off the main structure which made searching a little difficult, but we finally identified the hide and successfully retrieved the cache. A clever hide . Signed and replaced the cache in between discussions with the fishermen.

Thanks for the cache and the series Keego and Chill [^].

TFTH

very well hidden, took a bit to find but we got there.tnln

Needs new log [nearly full]
well hidden, beware Muggles. [busy car park]

My second time here, looked and looked, then u beauty.

The first time i looked for this one i searched for ages and could not find it. Today within a minute i spotted something that i didnt notice before and the cache was in my hand. Great hide.

Found this clever camo. TFTH K&C

I had a VERY whispered phone call to a friend regarding this cache.....I was running REALLY, REALLY late for work (ended up on the train!) and there were 3 men fishing super close to GZ. Signed the log and hightailed it out of there. Will need to return for my chance at redemption and sadly I ran out of time to find urch's puzzle. I'm sure there'll be a next time. In the mean time, you were often mean but always clever in this series. A warmer day would've been even better, but this cycle way needed some caches (I was the only person using it this morning) so thanks for the effort you put in to constructing these caches. Other than the key holder and a pencil with no lead at the first sistema (neither a big deal) all were brilliantly maintained. Thanks again Keego and Chil.

The Pioneers series has been on my mind for some time, with no bike to ride I was waiting for the cooler weather. I parked at one end and walk to all but the last three caches before moving to the sea end.

Finally found the sea and the last of the series. I was hoping for a nice quick find so I could marvel at the view. I was disappointed and spent some time searching.

Thanks Keego and Chil.

Out on a very grand morning, with Tanzanite, caching exclusively by "pushy" today.

This cycle trail is a very well kept secret and perfect for a Cache run, with lots of different terrain on offer
for a variety of hides.

This was our 14th find from 14 today.. but we were delayed somewhat, for as we arrived at GZ a geology teacher had just started a lecture with his students right where we wanted to search.

Tanzanite and I sat on the wall and started to listen, in fact I think we were the only ones listening as most of the students seemed very disinterested, chatting to each other, checking their phones , yawning, as the lecturer started to explain the history of the rock formations.

Despite the students obvious lack of interest the teacher continued for what seemed like an age, so Tanzanite delved into her bag and suggested we had "CAKE", great idea.... Oh... except the cake wasn't in the bag, it was in the car a good few KM's up the street. So we had water.

The lecturer continued, so I decided to walk down and join the class and see if it was possible to make a quick grab with no one noticing.

I am not sure if it was my intrusion, the obvious lack of interest from the students, or the lecturer running out of things to say about a piece of rock, but as I arrived the class gradually made it's way back to the car park leaving GZ free for Tanzanite and I to finally commence our search.

We checked the obvious places, and then I searched a little further a field and noticed something that needed some closer attention, and there it was.

Great hide. Certainly my favourite from a truly excellent series in a great location. Well worth the journey South and certainly another favourite.

After finding this final Cache, we decided to cycle back the length of the cycle path instead of the short cut on the road. We then headed over to the 18 km J and B Bike Hike on the Kwinana !!! Busy old morning.

Many thanks guys.

Oooooh, out for a day of caching on the deadly treadly with The Machman (TMM) south of the river

As a 'bubble wrap popper' from way back , I found it especially difficult pulling myself away from the tempting metal areas where the paintwork and metal had bubbled from corrosion. There were these massive air pockets that were just begging to be popped and pulled away! TMM dragged me away before I could get too carried away thankfully...

TFTC Keego_and_Chil

Cool hide. We didn't even know this was here. Thanks for bringing us here.

Joined forces with iluvtrekking for a foray in the Henderson area. Four pairs of eyes looking for this one and it did take a good five minutes before the sneeky hide was uncovered. At this point we didn't realise what was in store for the rest of the series.

Met richlink here as a starting point for a great days hunting. First for the day and it took a little while to find, a very cleaver hide. TFTH.

We borowed a bicycle from the lady next door for this series. This has confirmed our thoughts that an electric bicycle is the way to go for us. Now to start saving! We enjoyed the day and loved series and the originality of some of the hides. This one was very nice!! TFTC

this was by far the easiest of the series
TFTC

A good hide. I found it on my second visit after being frustrated by fisherfolk the first time.

Day 15... no.1

Nicely hidden, great spot, great series ..... good to come back here again

TFTC

This was a cool spot i had never been down by the coast here TFTH

Went back today for this one had the place to myself. Quick find. Great cache. TFTH.

My first attempt in this series today. Fishing muggle kept looking my way so out with the trusty camera while trying to look. That didn't work he moved closer. Will try again.

very sneaky hide, discovered just as we were about to give up. TFTH

Mr & Mrs Felix out on pushbikes for the day. (albeit electric ones)

Wow another super quick find for Mrs Felix, the mojo is definitely working today! (better than yesterday )

TFTC Keego and Chil, we enjoyed the best part of it.

What a great way to spend the last day of the year. We loaded the bikes last night and got off to an early start, picked up J B and his bike on the way and then set off to the southern regions of Perth .

We parked at the northern end of the bike path and made our way through this lovely series of caches.

This was REALLY good - deserving of a favourite vote. Thanks for the cache Keego_and_Chil & Allied Pranksters.

Picked up the old boy and his bike and ventured off to do this series, enjoyable series with a great range of camos.

very nice for the end of the series
tftc

Another great series...made for a fun ride...awesome variety...great locations..all in all a rewarding caching experience...good job!....TFTC

I had to come back here to do the last one of the series thinking it going to take time however I was quite surprise to fine it on the second place I looked I then had time to enjoy the view. Thanks for the series of caches it been fun enjoy very much TFTH SL

Not a muggle in sight. Quick find when my GPS settled. TFTH Keggo and Chil.

4184 + 231 = 4415. After a crappy weather day yesterday - today was beautiful - perfect caching day...

After work I had a bit of time to do a couple of caches...

Heading back to Freo I took the opportunity to grab a few of the caches in this area. Wow - looks like there are a few in this series - it'll take a few visites to try for them all ! First find of this series.

Thanks Keego and Chil !!

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

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 liked the camo, I saw a likely spot, but had to wait for some muggle tourist to take their photos and depart the area. My guess was correct and the cache was quickly to hand. Thanks K & C for the cache.

Spent 10 minutes or so looking around GZ, but my GPS wouldn't settle ... it had been like that all day ... maybe something to do with the cloud cover. Sunset-watching muggles showed up, so I decided to leave it for another time. Enjoying the series and look forward to finishing off this and the other DNF I've logged. TFTH K&C

I tried this one this morning but could not search thoroughly as there some fishermen fishing on rocks nearby. This afternoon I had the place to myself so was able to search a lot better. once again I had to trust the GPS as the coords are very close. Very tricky.
TFTC

Spent considerable time looking for this this afternoon as no one was around. Given the accuracy of the co-ords on the other caches in the series I was trusting the GPS which kept drawing me back to the central walkway, but could not find it.
Will have to make a return visit like ChrisRG and try again with the word "tricky" in mind.

*FTF* 17.20pm

After doing the 2 caches published today and then going home I learnt that there was a whole series of these caches so came back out again this afternoon to do them all. Started searching and got a telephone call from the better half wanting to know where I was as I had been a long time away from home. After hanging up I quickly found the cache after trusting the GPS to be right as it had been at all the previous caches.

Thanks Keego and Chil for another great series with Allied Pranksters even though it took a lot of walking to do them all in one go. Roughly 3 hours in the heat to walk from the 1st cache on the walk/cycleway.

The only one this morning that I didn't find. There were a couple of fishermen very close by so all I could do was sit down to take a rest and look around but nothing obvious spotted.
Will be back another day.
