No probs finding this one, a black roach was happily guarding it for all geocaches. TFTC
After passing a few roos who didn't seen to care I was there made the easy find. TNLN. TFTC.
I recently moved here and didnt know this conservation area was here, it was a good little stroll today! When I was walking out we saw a kangaroo just chilling next to the path, didn't seem bothered at all that I was there. TFTC
Set to work at Balcatta for the day and decided to head up early to grab a few caches before work, This one was a quick find with a nice container...TFTC
Found while out on a cache run with the Geochildren. Had a wonderful time walking in the reserve. TFTC
After a walk across the park and along the track,logged in without too much bother..TFTC!!
TFTC! Second on a morning stroll with geowife and geodog with TB (now a cacher). Very cool!
Another day seeking out caches near the 98/99 bus route!
Find 6 of 8, and an enjoyable bushwalk.
Located cache, SL, left some stickers I had brought for the occasion.
TFTC K.B.!
ETA: my DD has identified the souvenir I brought home... a kangaroo tick! Appropriate for the area, must have been when I put my bag on the ground to SL and leave stickers! [:0]

Out with the geohubby picking up some more of the caches in the area. Not bad going we found 30 by 2pm with only 1 DNF. Most caches were easy finds and a few took a bit of searching and a couple were very sneaky hides....Walking up to this cache we saw some very friendly roos. Found cache quickly TFTC K.B
Lovely hide - we were here at dusk and the roos were out keeping us company. Nice stash too - kids did some trades. TFTC
Found easily but was guarded by some of the locals. However they did not seem to worried about me. SL TFTC.
What fun!
This was my first geocache find Took my cousin with me, we were honestly surprised to find anything!! Hahaha. Took Spiderman pencil, left temporary tattoo sheet Lot's of roos about at dusk! x x

Find #241. On a short bike caching run in the Dianella area.
Took a while as I was trying to avoid the plants in the area as much as possible but still when I got home I found 3 ticks on myself which I assume came from the area around this cache (And in particular this cache). Obviously not careful enough! Everyone make sure you do a tick check when you finish up for the day! Thanks for the cache again Kbinuk2005!!

Day two and a warmer, drier day greeted me as I left the accom in town. Nice hide and find. This time I headed North and found a great variety of caches and hides, and also visiting spots I'd never been to before. Thanks again kbinuk2005, nice walk to GZ and hide
Found @ 12:24!
Find #10 on my last caching run in the area before moving accommodation again!
Quick find thanks to description and the strange-looking burnt tree!
I liked the case and it is still well-stocked and in a good condition.
TNLN TFTC!

Found whilst out on a morning run with Kiwi1502. My most productive morn ever!. TFTH
This a great little hiding place. No shortage of pencils in the cache that's for sure. TNLNSL TFTC
Great hiding place! I've left the coin for Coggin1965 to take, the kids loved the stationery.
Sooo excited - my first geocoin! Found this with my 3 sons and the young one loved the stationary. TFTC.
Quickest find yet!! Stands out well - we needed this quick find to boost morale!
I was very tempted to take a Barbie pencil but seeings I didnt have anything to leave, we had a quick photo and wrote in the log

Evening was upon us but we thought we'd try one more for the day. The Kangaroos were out in full force (baby pilgrim thought they were out to get her). GPS was jumping around quite a bit, and we were down to under 10% power left in the unit so the race was on. Fortunately we managed to locate it quickly before the power went out. Problem was that it was pretty dark when we found it and got a little disorientated in the bush, the power in the GPS was now gone.......but we managed to find the track again without too much time passing. Great spot here. TFTCSL
A quick and easy find here, in a lovely bush reserve. When I was near here the other day I saw some great kangaroos and they were super friendly too. I was able to walk right up to them and they were not worried about me at all, I could have reached out to touch them.
Unfortunately I forgot to take a writing implement with me to the cache, and although there were 11 pencils in the cache, none of them could be used to sign the log, so I did my best with a piece of charcoal.
Thanks for the cache KB!

Last find before heading back to the shops to stop Mrs Meekal spending too much money. TFTC.
Third enjoyable find from kbinuk2005 today. Very nice bush setting, some of which I'll take home with me as charcoal stains on the not so geoshirt . Probably 20m from the path the way we took. TFTC!!
Picked Fabulous Firsday to go caching with Keego and Chil as our second major attack on the Northern Suburbs. Our mode of transport this time was by bike and it proved to be a winner having found over 20 caches in 90mins. I was always last to arrive at each cache short of breath.
As general comment most caches were very easy to find compared to some caches in the Southern Suburbs and in open areas, the playground caches concerned me as anybody watching us would have seen two old guys looking under equipment. Some bush hides surprised me as I know of some owners not liking to look for caches in those areas but they were mostly one step off the path.
We left the area feeling very successful in finding every cache and liking the easy hides.
Congratulations go to the owners of these caches in giving us a great tour of the area and the knowledge that simple is sometimes better.

My first real caching sortie into the much maligned Northside of the Swan River with AmstradKid. All caches were done by manual pedal power and little knowledge of where we were going... lol. A quick find in a lovely bush area. SL TFTC KB
We were consumed with curiosity when heading for this cache. Now-- I can rest easy, knowing what a Pooh tin is. Nice little cache. TFTC kbinuk2005
A quick find of the cache - another one big enough for a few GC swaps. Retrieved the 2 GCs - Yosemite and World Diabeties 2007. Dropped Gnome TB and Owl TB. Thanks for the cache kbinuk2005.
The grassed area by the car park had heaps of lounging kangaroos, obviously used to the traffic. Some lovely Banksia trees in the bush here too at the moment. Easy find and lovely not to find another micro. Left two GCs. Thanks for the hunt.
Did a spot of caching on the way to work this morning. This was the first find of the day. Nice quiet walk to the GZ for a quick find. Cache was being guarded by several kangaroo's who weren't intertested at all in me poking around. TFTC.
After meeting iluvtrekking we set out on a big day of caching. A bit of a walk to get to this one but we did it in the end. A lovely surprise for kids - we didn't take a pencil although they were sooo tempting!
Well after all the drama at Fabulous February 29, I decided to beat a hasty path out of the area.
So was heading for Nollamara when I realised I could grab this one.
Came across a huge Kangaroo out on the grass nearby. Managed to get covered in charcoal and bring home about 12 ticks, but none had bitten me so far!
Left GC.

I was coming out to find this cache with Ozcrawf jnr (Pink_Bilby) but she decided that she'd rather visit gran than do a few caches so I came to find it on my own. A nice simple find. I've resisted the temptation to find out what smiggle is. I'll keep my innocence (or ignorance) for a while longer. TFTC.
Hopped on road bike to knock off a few more KB caches....approached this from wrong side, so threw bike over fence and climbed over....wasn't expecting to see roos today...cheers KB
We walked through the conservation with our aunty who placed the cache. S was standing on GZ when J pushed her off to find the cache. J took the penguin eraser and S took the transport card holder. Thanks for the cache.
I didn't read the map all that well so ended up a few hundred meters away to the west before being stopped by some fences so instead of driving around I decided to do some walking around the new few caches. Found the gate in the fence close to the cache so didn't have to walk all that far extra to find the cache. Cache was found without problems.
Thanks kbinuk2005 for the cache.
Thanks kbinuk2005 for the cache.
Last cache for the day... Again meet Sno Seeker at the cache, signed the log. back to the car and saw some kangaroos... tick??? Thanks kbinuk2005.
Looped north on the way home to grab the last three of this cluster. Everlasting turned up here as I was signing the log. Short stroll and a quick find . SL TFTC
This one was closer to where I work than I thought. When it popped up I thought I had a pretty good idea of where it was so thats where I finished my run this morning but when I checked the GPS I was about 50m away so I followed the GPS the long way around the fences and made a quick find. Took TB

I am sure I read somewhere in your logs that you were taking March off from placing Caches?
But they keep popping up on my Geo Map, so thank you, very grateful.
Found with no problems, will have to bring Miss Chocoholic to this one as she is the typical
teenage Smiggle addict....!!

[:(!] Went for a late evening/night of caching with Mrs GrumpyBump, we were on our way to this area when this cache came on to our I-phone, we stopped the car, typed in the coordinates into our Tom Tom and we were on our way, arrived close to GZ, parked the car and then walked straight to GZ and within a couple of minutes we had the cache in hand and noticed a blank log, surprise, surprise , we were the FTF at 6.40 pm
