YAY Finally changing this from a DNF (10/1/21) to a FOUND IT (6/7/24)Found it instantly and I swear I looked in the same spot last time!! Either way can finally get this one off my mind hahaTFTC

Nice hiding spot

A beautiful tribute to those who fought in the war. Thank you for the cache

A quick find on a blustery day before the rain sets in. TFTC Cheers Lead n Lace

Good little spot

There's a lot to see in this little park, not to mention the super views. It was a misty arvo with a rainbow out at sea, great weather for caching because muggles were scarce. The cache was found quickly... MrG's theory on the perfect hide at this spot was clearly the same as the COs. TFTC jowiba.

On our travels we found ourselves in Denham and took the opportunity to grab a few caches, we wanted to stop at pioneer park to look at the captain denhams rock, so thanks for bringing us here, a nice quick find.

Found with e.gregory1 on a trip from Adelaide to north-western Western Australia for a little over four weeks. We spent three nights on the Steep Point/Carrarang and Peron Peninsulas, staying at Shelter Bay for a night and Big Lagoon in Francois Peron National Park for the following two nights. Enjoyed visiting this scenic area finding a variety of caches around Denham, out to Cape Peron and across to Monkey Mia. Thanks for the cache jowiba!

Found on a trip to Western Australia from Adelaide with FeatherWaite. Last night we camped at Big Lagoon in the Francois Peron National Park. Today we travelled up to Cape Peron, exploring the various side-tracks, before heading into Denham finding caches along the way. We then headed back out to Big Lagoon again to camp.Some interesting history here.Thanks jowiba for the cache.

Tftc..didn't take long. Lovely views from up here

Found it on my trip to Shark Bay. Nice and interesting memorial park.TFTC

A quick find after a short walk from our accomodation, here as part of a research team tagging tiger sharks. Thanks for the cache jowiba

Found 15:36Three months of travelling in Western Australia with Muggle friends from the East coast; stopover in Singapore on the outward and return flights. Caches and labs where they are on the way and can be done without too much effort. You may forgive me for using the same standard phrase everywhere, but there's not much more to it than that. Many thanks to all the owners for making our hobby possible. If there is anything wrong with the cache, more detailed information follows..

This one took way longer than it should.

Suite de notre priple en Australie: sur la route de Monkey Mia, on fait une pause Denham. On logue en team Mado. Merci pour la cache et la dcouverte de ce lieu. Bien en place

Nous continuons notre voyage en Australie, direction aujourd'hui Monkey Mia. Un petit arrt Dunham pour pique-niquer et jaunir quelques points. TFTC logue en team Mado.

Quickly discovered during an evening walk. Thanks for hiding it.

That one took a while. Spent some 10 minutes in the heat but finally we got lucky. Thanks for taking us here. Cache is in good order. Cheers from Bavaria Madhome

Visiting shark bay with emukka. After spending a few nights in monkey we came to see the town and do some caching, tftc!

Tftc!

Easy find on Day 4 of our honeymoon! Tftc

In good condition. Great view Thanks

Walked up from town to visit this one while waiting for the hms Sydney film to start. I found this one relatively fast but it only had one name on the replacement log. I did continue searching for a bit but then it was time to leave.Thanks for placing this cache here

Walking the Discovery trail today and reading some interesting plaques. A quick find here thanks.

Lots of great history and a great view. TFTC

Found it. The view was beautiful. There was a lot of old history to look into. TFTC!!!

A short trip to the area and of course some caches had to be found. Arrived and thought lots of tricky spots depending on how small the hide is. A read of the hint and a bit of a think to come up with the find. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC

Easy find

Lovely little educational find

A nice little find whilst doing the walking trail.

Denham Day 2
Have now booked into the Shark Bay Caravanpark for a couple of days.
This is an amazing area to explore, we found a variety of cahes. for our country
A nice park to give thanks to those who made many sacrifices
Thankyou to the CO's for hiding this cache

Found it TFTC

WA road trip day ? Heading south then west and north again, seems to go the wrong way..
Went to the moon on the way and ended up in shark bay.

Bingo bango - glad of a quick find as the sun goes down. Stunning coastline - and of course what else to expect! The trip is making me think about re-imagining Australian history - Noticeably there’s no mention of the Captain Cook !!! In Denham for a few days with plenty of time to explore on trusty treadles and appreciate another AUS World Heritage site. Have travelled WEST from home base 4200 km away and that includes altitude as well so enjoying the landscape and habitat changes of this BIG country. TFTC and the lure to visit.

PS - amazing rust rate here!

TFTC super confusing for me but got there eventually

I'm heading north, not sure how far up we will go.
It's an amazing place, we will come back soon.

We are from the Netherlands! Today we found this cache! TFTC!

One more green dot in Denham that waits to be transformed in a yellow smiley. Together with Little-Inegüxle we first searched at the wrong object. While Little-Inegüxle lost his patience and went on spotting other objects I was still lying under the first object searching for the box. A short while later he came back with a big smile and had the box in his hands...

Thanks for the cache and regards from Switzerland.

Cool spot!

TFTC- found with rainygirl74

Found with Dozenmater, TFTC

Nice view.

Loving the caches in historical places..
Great cache, a little tricky to get but all good..
Thanx
(Photo is not a clue of where it's hidden in the park)

What a historic park with many memories restored. Quick find here, thought it was going to be harder due to the rating. We certainly accessed this the long way! TFTC

First cache in this morning in Denham. Good found A very nice park TFTC and greetings from Switzerland

SPOLIERS AHEAD:













Very cool cache. It was underneath a wheel and was the first time my brother&sister found one!

Tftc. A bit tight to get, looked in that place a few times but got there eventually. Great park.

Nice view nice hide

Such a lovely little memorial park, walked over here on our first night stay and checked it out while my phone charged, came back today as I saw a cache and thought I might know where it was. Such a nice view

A lovely spot with a great view. The small carriage you see here in pioneer park can be seen in use on a photograph in the old pub.

TFTC it was a great find a little difficult to get to though

Found. Thank you. Would have missed this place if it wasn’t here.

Very very tricky! Great hide! Tftc

Great park! Worth a visit, tricky find also.

TFTC easy find

This one was a bit tricky, TFTC

Good hidey spot. A hidden away gem of a park. Finding these places are the reason we love caching.TFTC

Found at 3:45pm. I like it but you do know I have big hands. My honey bee keeper Geocoin visited.

Glad this cache was enabled.
Quick, easy find.
Passing through Denham on my way to Monkey Mia.

Good to go

Thanks to fellow geocacher Happy Feet 1 who performed the necessary maintenance for me. So highly appreciated, that is the way to keep the caches going. All good to go again.

In town for the day, grabbing a few Caches.

Contacted CO and have replaced this container with his permission. It was a lovely little park to check out.

Thanks for placing the cache and doing the maintenance needed for us, to have enjoyment in finding it.

Looked for 15mins but couldn't find this one.

Apparently the cache has gone missing. I will disable for now but as I am away for an extended stay I will not be able to maintain it. Hopefully some fellow geocachers are willing to help out here otherwise I will have to remove the listing. Thanks in advance.

Still another DNF. Going on previous logs,this one needs reviewing. Thanks for bringing us here though.

Doesn't seem to exist. Please read previous logs.

Sorry couldn't find it

No luck today

Searched high and low but no luck today

Couldn’t find this one
