Woohoo, this archived cache is still there!
We were sitting around home on a gloriously sunny Good Friday and decided to head out and grab a few smilies. There was no real plan, we decided to let the GPS guide from spot to spot and had an absolute blast while out and about. TFTC
G’day there heboose, I was in this area today and found your cache Horcruxes - Rowena Ravenclaw's Diadem GC3V1MC. I added my name to the log book at 12:20 pm on 30 March 2018. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!
This brings our total find count to 9375

Had a friend in town and promised him a caching run so a loop of the canning was decided upon, so with kb in tow we spent an afternoon on the bikes.
managed to track down quite readily.

Caching with Col117 and KB today on bikes, did a trip round the water. Great route with great views and superb caches. Col117 made the find here, enjoying the cycle today. TFTC.
Secluded spot on the river. Sat on the jetty to sign the log. Thanks for the cache.
After many DNFs at the old location, found this one within seconds. Finally I can sleep at night!
Fifth in our search and delighted to find the cache in this lovely little waterside spot. It was delightful in the vicinity to see a commemorative seat remembering a loved one who used to enjoy the view here, a much wiser idea than to spend the same amount on flowers which only last a week. Hope someone puts a seat on my nature strip after my demise.
Picked up a trackable here to help continue its journey.

Lovely little hidden away part of the river. First stop for our new trackable Mega-dactyl. Hope she flies far and wide
Replaced container with logbook, clue and pen, unfortunately no diadem yet, so if you're on heading that way feel free the throw one there.
Happy horcruxing

Had a quick check here but no luck. A friendly local on the jetty told us that they knew where it used to be, having seen plenty of people find it in the past, but it's not there any more. Please replace!
Quite a few DNF in a row on this cache, and AusLoron and I searched the 'typical' hide spots for the series thoroughly. Could the CO please check that the cache hasn't gone missing?
Definitely not here anymore, Elrin and I have done most of the Horcrux series between us and there is certainly a pattern to the hides, yet after checking all the likely spots (and then some unlikely ones) we were still coming up empty.
Not a total loss though, as the extra walk out here meant walking back to the car we got to see a pod of dolphins carousing in the river! Hardly a rare event for the Swan River but wonderful to see nonetheless. Elrin and I agree caching has certainly opened our eyes and helped us see a lot more of the beauty our city has to offer. We watched the dolphins until they disappeared around the bend

A beautiful area for a cache, it was disappointing not to find it. AusLoron and I did get to watch some dolphins playing in the river and really enjoyed the architecture nearby though. Cheers
Sad to log a DNF on this one as it the only one in the series we could not find, looks like we won;t be able to defeat You-Know-Who
We had a good search for 20 minutes but no luck. Will watch list it and come back next time.
This one had me puzzled for a bit - even ventured out onto the small jetty, only to discover, that that is not a very safe option and totally unnecessary! Eventually found it, grabbed what was needed and headed off to Mr Potter.
Nice easy find. Thanks for bringing us to this part of the river. Geo son is a huge HP fan. TFTC.
Aha. After my DNF of a few weeks back I've been waiting for this to be relocated/replaced as it's the last in the series for me. Found this morning on an early morning bike ride. I was able to push by bike along the very narrow walk trail to the new cache location. Thanks for the cache and thanks for the series. Now I'm able to go and search for the final.

Didn't find it. Looked in the obvious spots. After seeing previous DNF I didn't spend a great deal of time here, especially as I only had on ankle socks (with shoes) and shorts. Not an ideal attire while wandering around dubious locations with lots of high grass etc. I'll return when I see a confirmed find.
After completing some of the periodic table caches nearby, we decided to go for a quick ride along the foreshore & find a few more caches... In this case "not find" Searched around & around, keeping our eyes on the bees whilst we searched but no luck for us.
TFTH heboose Think our luck has really run out here & as this is the 4th DNF of the day, it is time to go home

Didn't take too long to uncover, the detour around the bees was the most difficult they really put a sting on the time it took for this cache
Searched for close to 2 hours today, spread between 2 attempts. Not sure if cache is missing or if I was the one missing, but will be heading back soon to try again!
Another exciting trek through an enchanted land. This was our 5th of the series. Love it.
Found it. Great spot. It was just lying on the ground. I lifted it into the nearest tree to save it from rain. Tftc
Came back to the area today to pick up the last of the Horcruxes series. Little bit of a walk to this one but it was a quick find once at GZ.
Got bitten by what I thought was a wasp but on reading some of the logs it may have been a bee, did the signing duties and got the hell out of there.

Another one in the series complete. Certified bush basher now! TNLN. TFTC heboose (again)
There's a few trees around with bee hives but they weren't too close to worry about.
It was a nice quick find here but there is a bee's nest next to the cache and I didn't get the chance to write down the clues. I was a little worried getting strung. Got the cache back to it's hiding spot but it will need attention from the CO...TFTC
A little bit overgrown, so you might want to watch for snakes, but a cute walk along a tiny path to find it from the Harry Potter cache. Found with Geomother.
A quick find between passers-by.
Thanks heboose for the cache!

I left the bike at home today and took a leisurely stroll around the river to see a few caches I haven't got around to yet. This was cache number 3. Very secluded area. This was yet another quick find for me which kept me moving along the river at a great pace. TFTC heboose
Found with my dad and his dad. There were a number of bees buzzing around to the left of GZ (beehive?), but Grandpa had the cojones to reach for the box. TFTC.
Picking up a few caches on the way to a friend's place. Second find of this series. TFTC hebosse!
Today, we decided to have a nice drive along the river
to pick up a few of the caches that we missed on our first visit.
We enjoyed the parkland's and found a good variety of hides.
Picked up 4 more of this series today, all caches in good condition.
Thanks for the cache, heboose.

TFTF. Out walking the dogs. Did not bring a pencil. Nice relaxing spot. Lots of mozzies though!
Amazing! There were a whole heap of robin-sized birds flying about in the nearby field. I think there were about 10 in all. They were swooping, diving, having such a good time. We were sure to keep our distance though... after all, it's still spring and those birds can be very protective at times! Xinders and I have now found 3 of the Horcuxes and are well on our way to destroying Lord Voldemort for the greater good of Perth!!!! TFTC heboose
I never realised that there was a path all the way down here. Now I can come back with a camera and take some good shots of those pelicans that are always on top of the green houseboat. Yay! (The pelican's weren't there today but I know they'll be back. I've taken pictures of them from the other side of the river but never had the opportunity to get close. So pleased to find the path!!)
The cache is hidden away in a great hiding spot. It was actually exposed and I spotted it from a distance, though I don't think anyone else would have seen it, unless looking really hard for it. Loving this series. TFTC! Looking forward to finding the others.

on our bikes yet again trying to finish most of the highway and the periodic table series. and zig zagging around the suburb to beat whoever was in front of us for the competition putting them a good distance behind TFTC TFTH

Out with my brother, sister and geodad, we got lots of caches this afternoon, unfortunately a few DNF's today. Thanks for all the hides.
GSAGC #347. Horcrux find number 3 ... I've got you in my sights H-W-M-N-B-N [8] TFTH.

Went looking for this series, a while ago, forgot to log. OPPS! Any way nice series. TFTH
Managed to find the first three in this series on a wonderful walking trail along the edge of the river. Came to grief at the fourth as daylight finally got the better of the terrain and my lack of torch. Just goes to show that decent sized caches CAN be hidden successfully around suburbia! Left my pathtag, took quite a few mozzies!
Thanks for the cache heboose.

We have started this serial Harry Potter but we could find only four of them. In that case how can we find the bonus? Greetings from Belgium.
Parked the car, and like a previous finder, made my way on foot to each of these in the series.
A quick find here, and again a nice sized container, thanks heboose

I parked my car at the end of Brentwood Ave, and walked to all 4 caches from here. The track along the foreshore was lovely, and very enjoyable to walk along.
I was pleased to make a very quick find here, of a good sized container. I noted the information I needed for the final.
Thanks for the cache heboose!

I made the mistake of approaching this from the south, but no bicycles allowed on goat track. Easier to cycle across reserve. TFTC.
