Pretty sure we can guess where it would have been hidden but no trace. Judging by the DNFs I think it's probably no longer here. Nice beach at Trigg as ever. So still worth the visit.
Hard one did not find. As I see from all the comments that I am not the only one. Thanks anyway
Returned to the crime scene with my A1 Geosleuth. Looked in a wide area of where it should/could be. My best guess, and agreed with by geo-wife is that it is missing. Will post a note so CO will be alerted.
Nobody's been able to locate this for quite a while. Looks like it could be gone.
Couldn't find this one. Widened the search and checked all the obvious places when I realised that the GPS was off by a good bit but still nothing. Hoping it hasn't gone missing.
Out on a day of caching day with Skippy 46. Being a saturday there was lots of muggles about but we still managed to find 22 caches with a few DNFS. Pretty sure this one is missing, we spent a few minutes searching but found nothing TFTH
Amazing! 3 teams of geocachers all rocked up at the same time on a wet and wild day. Go figure! First time I've ever met another geocacher at the same spot... and none of us could find it!
Well done to geo son 2 - after waiting for the muggles to clear out we made an easy find.
Quick find. First time seeing a cache this small. So cute. Forgot writing implement so couldn't sign log. TFTC.
Out with GeoHubby & 'not-so-Geo' daughter, car shopping. Stopped off for a quick bite at the beach & a very quick park & grab before heading home. TFTC

My second find for the day, and really had to practice stealth with a few eager surfers gearing up. Nice quick find even if my Garmin had me looking elsewhere. Thanks ZH, another of yours and another smiley.
Muggles around but still managed to find and replace. Forgot my writing stick tho!
Quick grab while in the area for work. Would love to grab the bike and cover the series one day.
Out with the geokids at trigg beach. Lovely Autumn arvo. Gps off by about 10m. Tftc.
#565 for us, found today while the kids were in lockdown at the Champion Lifesaver event at nearby Trigg Island SLSC.
Well, this one was almost a disaster....
Arrived at GZ and soon realised I was going to have to ignore the GPS as there was a car parked right were the GPS had GZ. Widened the search an pretty soon found the cache in really the only obvious place. No-one around, so the grab was easy. I moved away a little to sign the log and that's when the fun started.
While in the process of reassembling the cache, it came apart and one bit hit the fence, bouncing who knows where. There followed a period of scrabbling about and looking for a needle in a haystack..or a nano-top in the long-grass. I as about to give up and start looking for somewhere safe to leave the remaining part and the log, when I happened to spot the base ! I then had to wait 15 minutes or so for a break in the passing joggers/walkers/dog owners/pram pushers/surfers and even the guys who came to pick up the bags of weeds left by the volunteers. Finally the break came, the cache was hastily put back and I returned to Trigg SLSC for the rest of the event.
Thanks for the cache and the heart attack Zodiakhorizon!
(PS...don't think I have ever written such a long log for a nano before !!!)

Found without too much trouble but the coords on my GPS were no where near the cache. Great beach.
Had wait for quite a while to replace the cache as a fellow was just hanging around watching. Finally looked away for a bit.
I was headed back from hiking the Trigg and needed a break here anyway. My knees are making me do a slow crawl on the backside of this 12km hike.
Lots of muggles but still found OK without attracting attention.
Thanks FTC and the series.

Thank goodness for Muggle Nannas. Out and about showing Mrs Bert's visiting mum the local scenery. GPS was all over the place. Nanna suggested to check this over here and there it was. TFTC!!!!
Cache is a nano but not too hard to find. When searching keep left on the foot walk. tftc
Today we found our first cache in Australia together with mick_ully. We had to search around a little bit but a few meters in the Off we could finally found the small container. Thank you for hiding. TFTC
Spent another great day caching with JacobsCrew, in the northern suburbs of Perth.
Visited lots of parks & did some bush walks, where we found a good variety of caches
& some clever hides. Thanks for the cache, Zodiakhorizon.

Here I am on another Monday adventure with The Drovers, It is the biggest caching day for me , a total of 81 caches for the day. It has been a great with fantastic company. I had a wonderful day in beaut weather conditions. We started here and it was a quick find ...TFTC
Thought that this place would be quieter on a week day! but no, today's muggy weather brought out the swimming muggles. A car pulled up near me during my search and I had to patiently wait and look at the ocean while they slopped on the sunscreen.
But found the little blighter, SL, TFTC!

Grabbing some caches with J+J.au while on a caching holiday from N.S.W. Great location. TFTC
Quick find , too windy for muggles today. Went and Checked the beach out, no swimming today. TFTC
Couldn't fnd this one, but reading some of the logs I think I took the coordinates too literally.
Found @ 15:15!
Find #03 on an impromptu caching run after visiting a friend in Scarborough. Caught two buses to get there, but decide to walk back and find a few caches on the way!
Quick find in the obvious location. Problem was waiting for a gap in the passing muggle to retrieve it!
Signed log and had to wait even longer for a gap so I could return it to the hide!

Staying at the nearby hotel for a relaxing weekend. After breakfast we took a walk to enjoy the day and pick up a few caches along the way. Unfortunately a number of the caches had multipe DNFs so we were restricted to 3 or 4 posibilities
A not so quick find for us as we had GZ in the car park. A gradually widening search eventually spotted a likely hide and subsequently the cache.
Replace the log as it was full.
Thanks for the cache Zodiakhorizon [^]

Great hiding place! The GPS told us GZ was right in the middle of the car park, decided that couldn't be right so we just had a look around and had the cache after a few minutes:) Needs a new log (current log is full). Could do with a little wd-40 on the bottom-it is rusting a little, nothing huge!
TFTC, this one gave us alot of enjoyment.

No problems finding this one. I am slowly knocking these off one by one. A glorious day for a swim at the beach. TFTC Zodiakhorizon
After failing to find No.8 this one was a pleasant very easy find in the very obvious location. Lucky for me there were not very many people in the carpark this afternoon, so I didn't have to wait long to make a grab for it, or to replace it.
Thanks for the cache ZH!

Out for another caching trek with AndrewSWRT, this time in the GEO work ute to stay out of the wind and weather on this miserable day. Soon got on to adding to the tally.
Quick park and grab.

Cycling on the beach, logging the missing caches.
Despite the cold weather a lot of surfers around. Had to wait a while to hide back.

Took a few minutes to find this one. My GPS wanted me to search about 8 meteres away from the true GZ. I then got myself in a position to see this plain view cache. SL. TFTH Zh
Such an easy find. Little brother claimed it though.
What a lovely day to go geocaching.

Out caching with iluvtrekking on a warm Sunday arvo. This was our first find in the 'Take 30' series. We will be back another day to complete the remainder.
We managed to make a quick find as very few mugglers anywhere near the hide. TFTC
