One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.

I was in the area for work, so I decided to stop in at this park afterwards and go for a little walk. A quick and easy find here, as it was plainly visible. I suspect it's covering had fallen down, so I replaced it when I left.

Thanks for the cache harmsen11!
 
01-Jun-12
Lovely contains. One could go somewhere else in the park! Thanks harmsen11

Greetings from Canada! Left a UK penny.

It was just getting dark as I arrived at GZ. Fortunately the area was deserted since it took a few attempts to return things the way I had found them. Always great to find a shiny new cache, even when it's a replacement cache. Thanks for the cache harmsen11.
 
05-May-12
Had been before but it was missing this time it was a easy find t4th
 
29-Apr-12
This is a really lovely park and we had it to ourselves today. A quick find although the camo was good.
 
14-Apr-12
Found too easily as the camo object was on the ground, meaning that the cache was plainly visible from 50+ metres away. I replaced the camo object, but you might want to check that is secure. SL. TNLN. TFTH harmsen11

Found on a lovely day however did not extract the cache to sign the log as muggles in the area were very suspicious of me and didn't want to compromise the cache again.
 
01-Apr-12
Cache replaced. Now a Shakespeare waterproof capsule.
 
25-Feb-12
Cache has definitely been muggled. We didn't find the container, all we found was a plastic pocket with the log, two coins and astro boy sitting in the nook of a tree. Just as we were wondering if it had indeed been found we opened the log and saw an abusive and colourful msg left by whoever muggled it. We put it back where we found it but it might need some tlc. Thanks anyway.
 
25-Feb-12
Will check on Cache as soon as possible and replace.
 
13-Feb-12
Nice easy find once I managed to get near GZ after all the muggles moved on (so many dog walkers today!). TFTC

Sorry for the delay log, we were out on a double point munzee hunt when we found this but it didn't show up on the mobile app. Forgot about it for awhile and then remembered. TFTC harmsen11.
 
16-Jan-12
Found your geocache while searching for the Munzee. Cheers.
 
04-Jan-12
I remember coming here ages ago for a lovely botanical-walk. We also found another geocache over here that has long gone after being muggled. ... It is good that the area has a hide in it again. And what a fantastic hide this is, too. TFTC harmsen11. We loved it!!
 
04-Jan-12
Stealth was required while retrieving this since there were people playing basketball on the court nearby. I love the container too. TFTH harmsen11 Big Grin

We came home this way from caching in Henderson to try and find a GCA frog - but unfortunately we were not successful there.

This cache however was found right on GZ. Very nicely hidden and we loved the container, we have not seen one of these before.

Captured the Munzee while we were here.
Thanks for the cache harmsen11.

Cool What to do on a warm Perth day, I had some plans to do some things around the house, particularly that the rest of the clan was working today, but the geowife said, why don't you go grab some caches, I did not have to be told twice! Grabbed the GPSr, loaded an update, and off to grab some caches before it became really hot. Razz

I have been to this park before, but that time it was a DNF, today was different, I approached the area where the pointer was indicating, but soon saw the likely spot, the GPSr was indicating a different spot, but a quick check of the hint and the cache was to hand, this is the largest one of these caches I have come across. I signed the log, took the travel bug and captured the munzee. Thanks harmsen11 for the cache. Big Grin

G'Day

I'm sorry, but your recent move has brought your cache too close to the Traditional Cache of "GC2Z4RF - Magpie" and will need to be moved. Please read the following item on cache saturation http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=304#saturation


I've disabled this listing for the time being, could you please move it to a new location that fits within the saturation guidelines. Once that is done you may enable the cache.

Rgds,
Matt - Ministro.

-- Copy of email sent to Ministro --
Hi Ministro,
I can not find any cache called Magpie as stated below and there was no cache listed in this park when listed- I think you have made an error here. Please correct and re-enable the cache as soon as possible.
Think you.
Regards,

Harmsen11
 
19-Dec-11
Very interesting. Magpie http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GC2Z4RF is much earlier than this cache (GC2Z < GC39), but it doesn't count in saturation because IT HASN'T BEEN PUBLISHED.

If you visit http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GC2Z4RF you get the error message "Sorry, you cannot view this cache listing until it has been published", but of course Ministro doesn't get that error message.

Caches beginning GC2Z were published early in July 2011. I do not believe the space should be held for five or more months while a cacher gets his/her act into gear.

Sir Frederik Samson Park is a legitimate owner of the space, let it be, let it be, let it be...

As an after-thought, not publishing for five and a half months is like being Temporarily Disabled for five and a half months - Ministro should archive Magpie.

I’m glad they left some bush land here I used to come here in my younger days looking for rabbits and dump cars, that when the whole area of Samson was only bush. Enjoy the short walk this morning found quite quickly TFTH SL

[:(!] Went for a later afternoon of caching, with Mrs GB, we had this one in hand in a matter of minutes TNLNSL TFTC

Mr Felix was working in Baldivis and Wellard today. As the cache was published and he was still way down South, decided to have a look for the cache on the way home and let the traffic ease before heading north.

Bumped into Chwiliwr on arrival and after replacing the cache also met up with Yonnie33. Busy part of caching world down south here.Big Grin

Also found using the hint co-ords out nearly 12metres for us.

Our co-ords S32 04.143 E115 47.944

Nice to find a harmsen11 cache after finding some of your munzees previously.

Saw this published and was pushed out the door by the Better Half to go find it.

My GPS had the coordinates out a bit but the hint pointed me in the right direction. Unfortunately there was muggles playing basketball so had to do the searching out of their sight and took the cache some distance into the bush to sign it and then returned it carefully as they were still there.

As it had been a while since I was last here I went for a walk around one of the walk tracks and was returning from the main info sign when I spied Mr FelixII walking up the track. Had a quick conversation and departed leaving him to go for the cache and me to return home.

Thanks harmsen11 for the cache.
