After logging 2 second DNFs today for the non found caches I was super excited about locating this one. Trust your gps more than the hint

Hi there urch.

We found your cache **"CW ~ Creery Wetlands"** at 12:40:00 PM today. This cache makes our find count 14819.

We came back for a second look, and once we stopped looking for a "small mint tin now, tucked away towards the base of a large tree" as the cache notes suggest, we found a 200ml Sistema a short distance away.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour around Mandurah today & ended up finding a variety of container types and sizes hidden along the way. All up we found 14 caches & DNF'd 2.

Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

This is the 2nd of 2 caches we didn't find today. Twisted[:(!]

We spent quite some time here at around 11:56:00 AM, but we just couldn't locate your cache. It's either a very clever hide or we are suffering from "cache blindness", so here's a DNF from us - - - not stating it's not there... just that we couldn't spot it. Twisted

Found it but not sure if it's the right one. Didn't find the small mint tin but a small sistema container...
 
12-Aug-16
Found this not saw from GZ. Muggers?
 
06-Aug-16
Found it. Not a small mint tin, was smaller. Almost gave up on this one, not at the base of the tree.

And again my phone gps was bouncing all over the place, so hard to pinpoint!

TFTC
 
30-Jul-16
Found it I think? What I found was a small bison container close to the tree, not a mint tin as mentioned in the description. Also the last log entry was over a year ago, so not sure if what I found is the correct cache, but looked for ages and no mint tin in sight.

Good one

Mac very sensibly waited in the car while we offered ourselves up for the mozzies evening meal! Thanks for replacing this one Urch. 3 out of 3 on yours today, thanks for hiding puzzles for us to find.

Still catching up on some caching we did on our most recent trip to WA from Perth south to Augusta and a few places in between.

We had the pleasure of living in Busselton in 2015 for six months then spent a further six months living in Mandurah before moving back to nsw. We have been back twice in the past 18 months as it always invites us back especially to the warm days and beautiful scenery and beaches.

It's a real shame that we only discovered geocaching just when we were moving back to nsw so we have a lot of catching up to do in our favourite places in WA each time we return.

TFTC TNLN. Until next time WA it's been an absolute pleasure.

Once again this cache had done a runner. Replaced it again and covered well. PLEASE do the same when replacing, and be discreet!

Don't know how well the previous finders hid it. We thought it would be relatively easy but we looked for ages, to no avail. Thanks anyway urch

Day thirty two of the WA road trip with BettyBoo3747.
Spent the day travelling around east of Mandurah doing the odd cache, and sampling a few series.
A nice entrance to the park - crossing the water. A water bird was playing snakes as we walked across, unfortunately I wasn't fast enough with the camera before he dived again.
I was still reading the information boards when BB came up with the hide.
Thanks, Robmc.

# 8053. Another lovely Autumn Day so Robmc and I head out to find some of the local challenges, puzzles, trails and other sundry finds. It's ANZAC Day so - "Lest We Forget"!

It was a lovely walk across the bridge to get into the enclosed area. A lot of cormorants were hanging themselves out to dry wherever they could. We had mixed forturnes with this little series. This was our first find and although I had my hand on the container quickly it took me a while to coax it from its hiding place. A good size to start us off.

Thanks urch

I was out and about on an early morning caching run and this one was on the list.

A nice easy find here and a wonderful spot to sit for a minute and listen to the wildlife Big Grin

With a couple of hours to spare, we headed down Mandurah way today to find a few caches... After waiting for huge downpour of rain to pass, we made our way to this cache! Our GPSr's seemed to go a little crazy here, but after reading the clue the cache was quickly to hand Big Grin

TFTC urch [^] We would have liked to continue our walk here, but we could see more rain coming so bolted back to the car instead! Cache was in good condition.

Edit: Visited TB which was previously marked as missing.

25-Jan-14
So after finding this cache we had to retrace our steps in the heat to walk the long way back to the car Razz Silly us for parking where we did. All good though as we enjoyed the walk ( sort of ) and got to look at houses and think about colour schemes Razz
This cache was completely exposed and log slightly damp but still usable. SL and covered the cache with cammo. Mr Luna enjoyed reading the information sign Smile
On the way back to the car we met some children fishing who asked if we saw any wild pigs during our walk [?]
TFTC and the series Urch - loved it !
adding to my favourites for the series overall ....
 
14-Jan-14
Found during an early morning bike ride through the area. Contents slightly damp so I dried as best I could. The Mosquitos used me for breakfast.
 
13-Dec-13
Another day caching around Mandurah, and the area we used to live.
Got the bikes out for these 4 caches, and enjoyed the trail.
Thanks for the cache, urch.
