Time to call it quits on this one. Maybe some one else can place a cache here.

The bison tube was not where it should have been we placed it on one of the hand rails hope you can find it
Looked in the only possible spot without jumping fence and staying on the path even though it was 4m off. Looks like there was a nice little nested spot for it but, no go
Wasn't expecting to do a cache so early in the new year so I don't have a pen to LOG this one. I chuckled about the sprinkler hint - they,re everywhere!@!
I have a few of your finds and they don't disappoint. Very good hide.
The log is full no room left

Took me 2 trips up and down but I found the little peice, it does stand out but I great spot
I decided to try for a few GC's in my local area this afternoon and this was the only one I found out of 6 attempts. Location was almost spot-on and noticing what was there that shouldn't be soo had the cache in hand. Imaginative hide. TNLNSL TFTC Tomthewizz
Third time lucky. Found it thanks to the gecko hint and coords being 5m out hint. Very tricky. Thanks.
Hi there Tomthewizz.
We found your cache **"Port Bouvard Vista (New)"** today. (This makes our find count 23542).
Following through on our passion of walking around parks, lakes and along walking tracks we decided to attempt the caches around the Wannanup area today. We thoroughly enjoyed our walk and the scenery. We found 5 caches today & DNF'd 0.
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 5m 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 Tomthewizz for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

Second time here with different people and still no find. Thought well outside the box and still nothing. The coords take us off the pass but hint says to stay on the pass. Need better coords or better hint. Thanks.
Checked this one today and cache still there exactly as placed. Please remember in a lot of cases you have to think outside of the square to find a TTW cache!
Such a clever treasure! Our first find as a family. We were elated! Log signed by my 3 and 5 yr old daughters. Hint: make sure you log your visit
This is the coolest one we have found great hiding spot

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
Good hide really enjoyed it, can't see why this doesn't have that many favs

Took the mountain bike for a ride and see if I could find a few caches in the area, nice one. TFTC
Followed the spiral path to the top then back tracked to find a very well camoed cache. Awarding a fave here. Tftc, Tomthewizz
