Lovely morning had a couple of hours spare after DNFing at the nearby new duck43 cache at garden city so headed across and made a quick find after waking up Clontarf hill. Cache still there and in great condition. Too good of a spot not to have a listed cache, maybe someone can change that!

Container left in its hides hole with no covering, so we changed that. Great spot, looking forward to finding other caches by firnsy, hope all is well at your end in NZ mate

Wow back from NZ and time to track down some local caches that have been on our to do list for ages.

So Mrs Felix and The Machman teamed up today for a Freo...ish day of caching.

Well we parked the car then tried to find the right track. Think it was our third go before we were on the right path.

Then when I got to the cache, I realised the TB I wanted to leave was still in the car Surprised

Was 8.20am when we were here, but the view was a little foggy/cloudy. Bet it's great on a clear day.

Out Caching Felix for the first time in a while and we had an extensive list of caches
South of the River to attempt. Starting off in Fremantle before heading East.

On approach I was sure I had found this cache before, or certainly a cache at this location, but it
proved not to be the case.

Wandered up the hill, took in the view over Fremantle and soon found the cache.

Thanks for bringing us to this point.

Good walk to the top for some great views. TFTC.
 
23-Sep-12
Easy find after first having enjoyed the great views from the top. It would be a shame if this would disappear and be replaced by a motorway Sad. TFTC firnsy.
 
22-Sep-12
After a 100 metre walk into the bush we found the cache we stopped and looked at a lizard on the way and got spiked a few times because of the spiky bushes, altogether it was gr8 fun! TFTC TFTH
 
16-Sep-12
Short climb up and an easy find. Enjoyed the view and signed the log. TFTH

Back in business! There is a new container in a slightly different location ... just a few centimetres from the original location, so no need to update the coordinates. Thanks to vidahoy, the original log book is included in the new cache. Cheers Vid.

Dropped of TB.
 
15-Apr-12
Will check this out next weekend and replace/relocate as necessary.
 
15-Apr-12
I'm afraid this one has been muggled. I found the logbook on the ground by the path at GZ and no sign of a container. The last log entry was from ChrisRG on the 12/3/12 but no entry from cravo10 unless there is another container? Check it out Firnsy and I was looking forward to finding your larger container!
 
09-Apr-12
Short walk and cache was in hand tftc
 
12-Mar-12
I think I approached this one form the wrong side> I parked 500m away at the bottom of the hill and made my way up but came across a fence and gate blocking my path. I soon found a way around and reached the top then took a little while to locate the cache but once I found the right path it was fairly obvious.

Joined up with iluvtrekking for a days caching in the area. A very clever hide and not in the immediately obvious spot.

Found with richlink. A quick dash up the hill and the cache was in hand. TFTH.
 
19-Feb-12
[:(!] Went for a late afternoon/night of caching with Mrs GrumpyBump, after walking up the hill we arrived at GZ, Mrs GrumpyBump indicated the likely spot and sure enough there it was and within minutes we had the cache in hand, then we spent a bit of time looking at night lights, then we walked back down the hill to the car.
