Think this one needs to go. The spot is no longer family friendly and if the space is cleared, maybe a more suitable spot for a cache could be found close by.
Multiple DNFs and now us. Heaps of stubbies, cans and a syringe to boot.
Recon this needs to be moved on. Not a good spot for kids to be hunting.

Horrible place scratched arm and back to pieces ...saw syringe ... not for me
No smiley for the 2nd time with this one... The Giant Golden Orb spider guarding the bush above my head had me doing the spider dance... thankfully Kylestell was there to reassure me... =P
No luck for us today. Unsure as to which end of the wall to approach as the plants have really grown since photos posted on your page ! No excuse but access really difficult
After our big move home from Townsville and after 8000km on the road we are staying in Pinjarra with some friends while we go house hunting. Had to do a few things in town today so we found this one on the way home. As we have cached out Townsville we are very excited to have a whole new play area with new exciting caches! Tftc sl tnln
Good hiding spot muggles everywhere though so take extra care had to step in and find this one for Loudy16 =P TFTC
Found with axell33 , the muggle cars seemed to space themselves out perfectly to keep us at bay until it was all clear!! Nice hide. Tyftc
Found this one with Leega after visiting the bakery in Pinjarra for lunch. Took awhile to grab the cache with the well spaced mobile muggles. Took just as long to be able to put the cache back. TFTC Shane'o.
Originally found under family caching name clan - wallace now branching out under own caching name
Have you noticed that everything becomes harder to see in the winter when the undergrowth is lush & wet? Well it becomes even harder when you loose your spectacles, as I did here. The good news is that it was after we found the cache. TFTC
Well that took a lot longer than it should have, I so nearly gave up, but just decided to have one more look and voila there it was. Certainly not where we expected it to be, or where we looked at first. Local golfers must reckon we are bad golfers to be searching around here for golf balls!
We didn't find any which is not surprising, but if anyone finds a pair of blue reading glasses here they belong to Clan-Wallace

Found this one today after a morning play at a nearby park. Quick easy find. Cache slightly wet.
Geo kids win this one and I was more then happy to let them. Cache was wet through so we emptied the cache as best we could and dropped of a TB TFTC
On our way home from a day of caching and grabbed a few on this side of the fwy. Another quick find for Fussbit, signed the log and placed back safely. The wall provides cover for muggles from the fwy, but the street running next to it was busy today, stealth needed. TFTC shayne'o
On our way home from Pinjarra AutumnOwl and I decided to break up the journey with a few caches along the way. A good spot just off the highway and a nice easy find. TFTC
Decided to git the road and fibd 13 caches to hit the 300finds. 5th of thirteen on the southwest highway and decided to stop and grab this one. I found a bike, some red undies and then eventually the cache!
Bike was still there and the cache too! As mentioned before cache was a little wet so we did some maintenance. Dried out the container, new zip-lock bag, threw out all the old wet goodies and let some new goodies. Not a big deal, just wondering why people complain about things being wet and do nothing. Keep the game enjoyable for everybody and DO something once you come across these issues, no need to wait for the CO at all. Anyway all good to go again! TFTC shayne'o.
After a big day on the 'ChooChoo' I needed one more find to get the 'numbers' right and stopped in here to put me right. Arrived at GZ and couldn't help noticing the abandoned bicycle and found the cache nearby. The log was a little wet but still signable.
Find #1799

Quick find here TFTH Loaded the geobike in the boot and set of to find some of the Choo Choo series. It was a warm day and soon realised we wouldn't be completing the series all in one day especially by push bike. We still had a great time finding caches and also picked up some odd caches we didn't find on the last trip down SWH.
TFTC! Found this cache today whilst we drove down to dwellingup and surrounds to have a crack at the Choo Choo Hotham valley series. Thanks for the cache.
I took the chance to get out of the house and find a few caches today by heading to the South West Hwy and ticking off as many as I could from Byford to Pinjarra. I started at about 8.30am and finished up just before 6pm. I stopped for lunch at the Pinjarra Bakery before heading north again to grab the ones on the other side of the road. I originally saw an imprint where the cache had been hiding before, but it was empty so checked other parts of the object here. I returned to where I saw the imprint to find the cache a few inches away. TFTC shayne'o
Found on the way home to Pinjarra after a picnic lunch at Fairbridge Village. Introduced “Red Robin59” to the fun of geocaching! Cache was found exposed, not rehidden well enough from last find.
Happy to find this one as my Sister Cassie & Co had tried to find it but given up, found it within a few minutes happy with myself. This was one of the finds I had today. A great weekend traveled down from Geraldton to spend all day Saturday Geocaching with my Sister we found 61 all up completely worn out but what an Awesome day.
A quick find on the way back home from the event cache in Bunbury.
Thanks
Thanks
Found it! Left a broken pen (the only one we had and there wasn't one in the cache). Easy find, but lots of muggles both in cars and cycling. Tftc!
Found it with stormyskyes, mysticwolf, aussiebird37 and Alec. Bit wet but otherwise good find. Tftc!!!
Found this one with my family (jasenjanine) after a fun day out in the bush... TFTC shayne'o [^]
Driving along the South West Highway today, this cache popped up on the GPSr... A quick turn & we were pulling up at GZ Not much traffic about today to wonder what we were up to, Jase found the cache in the first spot he looked... TFTC shayne'o
Today was my last day of vacation in Oz before returning to Sweden and my goal of obtaining my 4000th cache in Australia was just around the corner. Therefore me and corjam11 went out with a vengeance today to get my last 60 caches and we chose the South West highway to get them and a few others on the way. This was one of them, TFTC
oops...lucky in mikirst 4wd cause the sign i didnt see got a little bit squashed...TFTC
Nice easy one with no muggle spectators. Log is getting damp. If I was coming back this way I would have left it in the sun for an hour and it would have been dry with a temp. of 37C. TFTC
Changed the container for a same size dry one. Dried the contents and log as best as I could so hopefully things stay dry again. Thanks to the fellow cachers for helping me out and bringing this to my attention. Happy caching!
Wet inside cache. Have put log book in new plastic bag and dried it out as best as possible
Firstly I'd like to apologise for the generic log, I did the SWH run after a 12 hr nightshift and it was a record breaking trip for me with 62 finds total and only 2 DNF. I didn't take notes at every cache. Thank you to all the COs for placing the caches.
Cache was wet and smelly.
