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.

11-Feb-15
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.
 
11-Feb-15
Nobody's been able to locate this for quite a while. Looks like it could be gone.
 
24-Jan-15
Had a good look in the early a.m. No luck. I suspect this is gone.

Hi,

Didn't find this one. Searched and searched but it wasn't there.
 
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.
 
04-Sep-14
No luck for me. Try again another day
 
05-Aug-14
Cool

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

This is not obvious! Or it's gone... Or I'm oblivious! Oh well, great sunset.
 
06-Jul-14
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!
 
22-Jun-14
Well done to geo son 2 - after waiting for the muggles to clear out we made an easy find.

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. Smile

#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.
 
19-Mar-14
Had wait for quite a while to replace the cache as a fellow was just hanging around watching. Finally looked away for a bit.
 
17-Feb-14
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.
 
10-Jan-14
Lots of muggles but still found OK without attracting attention.

Thanks FTC and the series.
 
02-Jan-14

Spent another great day caching with JacobsCrew, in the northern suburbs of Perth.

& some clever hides. Thanks for the cache, Zodiakhorizon.

12-Nov-13
Found on an early morning walk. Love the beach!
 
04-Nov-13
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!

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!

TFTC!

27-Apr-13
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 [^]
 
16-Apr-13
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.
 
14-Apr-13
After #10 was found, we knew what to look for. Quick find this time.

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!
