Decided it was time to focus my maintenance efforts on a few good caches rather than lots of average caches. The Lake Richmond series has had a good run, but all good things must come to an end. Container will be removed
TFTC! Out for a few quick finds with Jackyboy27 on a beautiful spring day in Rocky, exactly as hint suggests
Heaps of muggles walking around here this afternoon. We had to be quick signing this one and putting it back. TFTH!
yaaay! Found it, now I think I know what I’m looking for at another location that I think I saw somewhere else
Having spent the morning walking around Point Peron followed by lunch, we then came on to do this circular walk. The view and birdlife were amazing but we had 4 DNFs and 5 finds - not a good ratio.
Quick find and the last one of the day. TFTC and a favourite for the series and alpha values!

Found and signed, thank you. Was here in 2015, but on!y had time do the first two or three. Back to finish off the walk round.
Last cache left in my circuit of the lake. Thanks for a fairly quick cache to finish off with (only after I got home I realised that I forgot to do the mystery final... I'll have to come back!)
A few hours in the afternoon to kill and the weather was perfect for walking, so I decided to do the trek around Lake Richmond. All caches were found relatively easily, except for Number Seven which continues to be elusive. Loved the variety of containers and I so glad that I made the visit today. TFTC KrabiBoy
End of long walk - gave it one more try and there it was . Many thanks for the cache

Very interesting information around the lake. Surprised to see local development so close to the critically endangered thromatolites! Thanks for bringing us here.
Find 24 of 31 with 2 DNFs on a bike ride around Rocko as part of WAGB2017. An excellent day out and a well-organised event.
Nice easy find, TFTC KrabiBoy

Thanks for the hide enjoying a nice walk around the lake. Out enjoying the sun and finding a few caches around Rockingham during the WAGB event. Made over double digits between attending sessions and socialising so happy with our efforts. Always good to explore new ground.
A weekend away with SEMIK and Phoenix Flare so we could attend WA Goes Big 2017, and what an amazing weekend we had. The location was fantastic and we thoroughly enjoyed many of the quality caches that had been placed in the immediate area!
Having wandered down the coastline for a bit, we opted to walk the Lake Richmond circle. Again, some amazing views were enjoyed by the team, and a mostly successful hunt.
This was find number 15 of 23 for the day for me. TFTC KrabiBoy!

Was proud to represent SA with RideTheGeoWalrus and SEMIK during WAGB with beautiful sunny weather keeping us going.

Day Six of our holiday in Western Oz..
Bettyboo3747 and I have spent our day in Rockingham walking around doing some very scenic caches. Lake Richmond in the morning, and Point Peron after lunch.
Looped the base of the lake and we are halfway around. BB spotted this one quite quickly.
Thanks, Robmc.

#12586. Day 6 of our WA holiday - Our first full day in Rockingham. After gathering some supplies we took the geo-chariot to Lake Richmond and walked the walk. After lunch we went to Cape Peron where we admired the scenery and gathered up a few more caches. Not a wholly successful day, having 5 DNF's, however I added a smilie to a 2002 cache and we found a couple of ammo tin hides and I discovered a painted rock.
Still walking the walk but getting hotter and slower and we ain't done yet. A quick find here in a shady spot so we added our names (first again) and continued on.
Thanks KrabiBoy

A beautiful day to walk the dogs so brought everyone down to perform maintenance on this series. Needed to replace the cache here.
Beginning to think geocaching is not for me. Found rocks but no cache - looked for good ten minutes
S, T, 3K and 1D out today - GeodogJ slipped her lead and did a runner so we got more exercise than planned haha.
Yet another find for K#2 - tftc

When we arrived here some council workers were just finishing up but one insisted on having a chin wag so we obliged and he kept us chatting until,his co worker had finished blowing some leaves.
As mum and I walked down the track I read out the hint to her and showed her which tree but wanted to wait until the council workers were back in their car and gone but she never heard me and made a bee line to the cache, thus claiming another find lol

Would have been a nice easy find for geo daughter if she wasn't being a giant geo PITA
On a walk around the lake with the Geopartner Itskate this morning waiting for the ships to open. A pleasant walk around thanks for brining us here
Just to add to our previous log we found the cache with no stones near it. We have tried to put back as the hint describes. Happy caching.
We weren't going to stop for this one as it had so many DNF's but it's definitely there A quick find . TFTC
If it's suppose to be close to the track then we couldn't find it. We found three rocks behind a tree but we didn't want to crawl into the bush to look further.
Did not find this cache, not to say that its not there perhaps we need to open hr eyes.
Cache grabbed with Mortimer 57 during our fantastic 3 weeks trip in Western Australia. Thank you to all the owners for their great job. We had a lot of fun to do Geocaching in your country !
Greetings from France!

Nice walk around the lake with Emjuma57! We had a lot of fun geocaching in the area! Thanks to the owner, and greetings from France!
Found by Mary & David, in convoy with Alansee and micaparamedic (logged as ACMPMM), at 1505. Wonderful! Pelicans in flight! Our thanks to KrabiBoy.
Found this one with a friend a few weeks ago but wasn't a cacher now that I am thought I would come back and log it
