Hi there WA K Team.
We found your cache **"MST: Flooded Gum"** today. (This makes our find count 23540).
Following through on our passion of walking around parks, lakes and along walking tracks we decided to attempt the caches around the Wannanup marina today. We thoroughly enjoyed our walk and the scenery. It's a real pity we only found 2 caches today & DNF'd 4.
Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Nothing.
Thank you WA K Team for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

Went for a late night walk with my dog Khaizer to have a look, was fairly dark around 7:30pm, looked for a good 20 minutes and wasn’t able to find anything, going to go back soon while it’s daylight to have another look 
Easy find but silly me took me a bit to retrieve it. Had a giggle at myself - TFTC
A spontaneous day trip with Geogypsy up to Mandurah for a day full of caching.
Some awesome caches along the way.

I had a mission today to go and collect one of my cache series that I was going to archive. While down this way I decided to have a crack at the caches in the area and this cache was one I found on my journey. TFTC

Found by Mary & David at 1725. More magnificent trees to admire. Delighted that you are doing a trail of them so we can learn. Our last one for the day, and we'll be sorry to leave. Our thanks to WA K Team.
Found with jak2169
Took awhile until we realised there was an easier way to find

Had a huge day off planned with Cravo10, so decided we should head down South of Mandurah to cleanup some new series of caches that have been published and clean up the caches on the journey between Mandurah and Bunbury so that we can have a caching trip to Bunbury soon that doesn't involve too many stops on the way down so that we can actually cache out Bunbury and Busselton in the coming months.
Our first stop was the John Tognela walk trail caches, which included one archived cache found in great condition, lovely walk and special thanks to webbly wa for replacing the first one that was clearly lost in the fires.
We then tried for the ponder this series by Jinta29, which was going to give us some huge amounts of months unloved, found 8 of the 9 in the series, with a DNF on number one which gives us 48 months of unloved.
We cleaned up the OOH YEHs heading south caches on the way down which were all nice quick finds with good co ords. I wonder how far this series will end up going? Hopefully all the way to Bunbury
We then headed to grab the new yalgorup five caches that were recently placed, all found in good order and were in such a lovely area that I'd love to explore more, hopefully you can place a few more caches in this series and we can come back and spend more time exploring the area.
We then continued back towards Mandurah caching up a storm grabbing everything along the way that we could, including trying for some archived caches that are long gone, so we weren't all that successful on that front. We found a good variety of caches today and was good to finally make another huge dent in the Mandurah caches so we won't need too many caching runs down here to keep the area clean
Thanks to the local COs for their hides and we can't wait to come back to the area, we had a great day. Thanks

Quick detour on our way home from church today. Easy find having read the hint first. TFTC.
The hint was very helpful, check it before you look for the cache. Look carefully. We found this cache quickly and easily

Out for a big day caching to start off the new year and try to beat our record for most finds in a day! We managed to beat our record and only had 4 DNF's for the whole day, go us. Had a great time exploring this area. TFTC SL
Another fun find with Just-Lookin while on holiday.
Thanks for helping show us the area.

Good sneaky hide....had to dislodge the cache first to retreave it as it was wedged in pretty tight on an angle but after using my special mcgiver pocket knife i had it in my hand....very windy clod wet rainy day but managed in between the showers...TFTH
As I approached GZ, I realised a neighbour was watching me form their car. I then took great exaggerated care to appear to be taking photos of this significant tree with my gpsr until they drove off.
I spotted the cache quickly but then had to manufacture a retrieval device MacGyver style from a twig, barbed wire and duct tape (well only the stick really).
Thanks WA K Team for the caching fun

TFTC, found it with my youngest son on the bikes this morning, if was not for the hint I do not think we would have found it. good hide.
Originally logged under family name of clan-wallace now slowly transitioning to new name
Quick Park & Grab despite the fact that 'long drop' means something completely different to Geohubby.
We did take time to stop & admire the tree, I really enjoy this series. TFTC

Another glorious day to be out and about, espcially when geocaching! Another beautiful old tree. TFTC.
Found it. Place brings a lot of memories. When we were constructing Eastport I did water testing here every day twice a day for 10 years!
Day twenty nine of the WA road trip with BettyBoo3747.
Spent the day on the deadly treadlies riding around Falcon looking at the water from many different angles.
Just starting to turn for home, but time to squeeze in a few more caches.
A few lovely trees here, and some interesting information about the registry.
Thanks, Robmc.

# 7955. Our first full day in Falcon and Robmc and I jumped on the bicycles for some touring around - sight-seeing and gathering caches, or trying to. A lovely 18km ride around the beaches and canals but a not totally successful day caching wise. The result was 15 finds and 5 DNF's.
This tree was certainly impressive with interesting bark. Circled all three before finally locating the hide. Now to continue to wend our way back to our accommodation.
Thanks WA K Team

Only two of the GeoFamily went searching for this one with GeoKid 2 finding it first! A quick find. Cheers
Looked for about half hour could not find found a couple of good spots but nothing there.
We think we found it but nothing was in the hidey hole. We will try again another time. Happy Boxing Day!
