Out caching early in the morning to beat the heat of the day. Found this one after grabbing a couple at the top of Mt Brown. While I was sitting down signing the log there was a noise in the undergrowth behind me, so I looked around and was greeted by a Goanna, managed to snap a couple of pictures. Thanks for the cache.
TFTC! After collecting a bunch of new caches around the atwell area I came down to complete the Pioneers series of caches which have been on my radar for quite some time. Was a nice walk, would have been better on bike, with a good variety of caches and experiences. Thanks
Thought I'd find the three on this path on the way home from work today. Thankfully I brought my rain jacket! Easy find - TFTC
Last one for this trip - could have walked on but had only downloaded 6. Took a while for the GPS to settle and we spent some time looking in other likely places before seeing the obvious
We decided to take the dogs for a good run & finish the Caches in Mt Brown reserve. It was an early start so it was a bit chilly as we walked to the first one. It was easily found & in good condition. we then had a discussion & decided that Geohubby & the dogs would continue walking to Ap 048 & 047 & I would go back to the car & park as close as I could to 047 & pick them up. I was to phone with my exact location.......not a well thought out plan! Oh TFTC .
On the way to work, i decided to detour and get my morning caching fix. And the longer days mean it's actually light
I decided to tackle this series and up around the lake. Left the car at 5.10am and back at 7.05 for 12 finds and a DNF A very enjoyable early morning walk.
This was a nice quick find to start the day.
I'm Looking forward to meeting other geocachers at WA GOES BIG IN 2015, in Busselton.

Decided that today was finally going to be the day that I got out the mountain bike and headed through this bit of bushland collecting caches. I parked near GC4MB50 and headed in. Enjoyed the little downhill section heading to this one, and again the GPS was spot on the money. Quickly found, I signed log and returned. Was a little difficult to get the cache to snap back together, but got it eventually. TFTC.
Visiting from Adelaide, fantastic area for walking and geocaching.

Found while back in the area for work. Called by for a quick walk before starting. Thanks.
Another day caching south of the river, in beautiful Perth.
Started the morning early with a bike ride at Lake Mount Brown.
We were not disappointed, with a good variety of cache hides.
Many thanks for the cache, Allied Pranksters.

An RDO today along with some great weather saw me dusting off the mountain bike to turn some of these icons into smileys. I really enjoyed this area and there was a great variety of caches (with some very clever camos) and hiding spots, not many muggles either! Too many flies though
I spent about two and a half hours total here and only had 2 DNF's. TFTC Allied Pranksters

Out on the last day of the Great Scout Geocaching competition and trying to get the lead in the Cubs section for WA. Will have to see how the other cubs go. Thanks for all the caches we had fun!!!
Out with patfam (geofamily) to get caches on last day of great scout competition. I hope to be on the leader board for the joeys section. Thanks for the caches
out on a geocaching run trying to keep my lead on the last day of the great scout geocaching competition doing a few in Coogee and mount lake brown are TFTC's
TFTC. Wet blustery day. but the wild flowers made up for the poor conditions:-) Had a Great walk.
Woohoo! My first cache find and such a beautiful area in which to explore.
What a great day to go cacheing, sun was out on a fine winters day.
Geodaughter had a friend over so we took her cacheing and created a new cache nut.

Nice easy find thanks. Picked up on a nice 34 km ride south from Fremantle. Will shoot for the others on future rides through the area.
The cache is in good condition.

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.
TFTC! Nice easy find and definitely improved the mood of the junior reluctantly participating in this hot walk
6193 + 808 = 7001. Found during a work trip to WA.
Heading to the airport to go home but I had time for a few more caches. I'd walked in from the other direction a while ago so today I went in from this end for three quick finds and a DNF. This one was a quick find and I was soon on my way to the next one.
Thanks Allied Pranksters !!
TNLN - TFTC !!

[:(!] Went for a caching run for the day, after doing the Periodic Table run, we then continued on our caching run once again and we decided to give this series a go, parked the geocar at the Henderson Cliffs car park and I rode the geobike from there and the geowife then picked me up at the corner of Cockburn Road and Success Way, on arrival at GZ and within minutes I had the cache in hand.

I chose to backtrack, then continue along the trail towards this one. Master 3, still full of energy we were still going at a great rate. Cache was found easily and we were soon onto the next.
TFTC Allied Pranksters I'm starting to wonder if these pathways have been specially made for this caching series [?] Not a soul about today...

Found @ 14:11.
Thought I would try to get all the caches around Beeliar Park today. This was find #15!
Being new here, it is good to find out a bit about the history of the area.
Bit of a stroll through the bush to reach this one. Would love to know what the nearby archaeological site was for...

One last quick find here after attending the numbers event in Rockingham. Great range of caches in this series. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thanks Allied Pranksters
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.
Lovely day to do this series and all so very interesting.

Off the bike, off with the gloves, sign the log, gloves back on, back on the bike. Just the way it should be! Thanks for the cache Allied Pranksters. I think this might have been the one under the really heavy camo. Fortunately I could just lift one end; the entire thing would've proved too heavy for this non wonder woman.
Out on an afternoon caching trip with Tiger Rose WA Oz to complete a few more of the Pioneer Series.
It was a great afternoon for a walk. This was the second of 5 we found and an easy find off the path.
Signed the log and left one of our stretchy lizards.
Thanks for the cache and series Allied Pranksters. We have enjoyed the walk and the history lessons. [^]

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.
A strange little hiding spot.
Thanks Allied Pranksters.

Out on a very grand morning, with my geo buddy 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.
A straight forward one on this occasion, no problems, so we climbed back on the "pushy" and moved on.

Decided since it was a beautiful morning that would do all of the Henderson caches by foot this was number 1 t4th
Joined forces with iluvtrekking for a caching foray in the Henderson area. The boys took off on their bikes to do the cycle path while us girls did the 'hard yards' on the other caches in the area. By all accounts the guys appreciated a range of finds from easy to very challenging but they managed to collect smileys at every one.
I would love to come back here with a bike, but it is a nice walk on foot too. Wasn't too difficult to find, and I also really like the little history lesson here Great work Allied Pranksters!
Took the geo tribe for a great walk around Mt Brown had skippy46 in tow all the way...
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.TFTC
Parked the geobike at GZ but it wasn't til after I'd moved it a few metres that I found the cache behind it

Such a great day for caching with the kids on bikes and the dog towing geo mum around on her bike. Basher junior claimed the find of this one with a bit of help.
Day 10.... No.12
Quick find to finish the days caching before making the walk back north. Will be back to finish the rest of a very cool series!!! (hopefully next time not under the cover of darkness!!)

Mr & Mrs Felix out on pushbikes for the day. (albeit electric ones)
GPS werent playing the game, Mr Felix had turned his off as it was consistently giving him an 8mt variance. So relying on 1 GPS (in the hands of Mrs, boy Mr was not happy.....) we struggled here. GPS kept trying to send us bush, knowing we shouldn't be there we had the cache in hand.

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.
A quick find. Thanks for the hunt Allied Pranksters & Keego_and_Chil.

Loaded the bicycle on to the car rake and head down to Henderson to attempt the Pioneer Series. The morning was pleasantly warm and the cycle path was an easy way to travel to all of the indicated locations. Thanks K & C and Allied Pranksters for this series [^]
Another quick find and I am really getting into this series. Just as I arrived at the indicated location and got off the bike, I was surprised by a muggle passing at speed on his bike, a brief greeting, and I was alone again to sign the log and return the cache to its resting place.

After doing the 2 caches published today and then going home we learnt that there was a whole series of these caches so came back out again this afternoon to do them all. A quick one to find unlike some of the previous ones.
Thanks for another series.
