No luck here today despite reading the hint to confirm I was on the right track.
Unlike others my GPS narrowed down on a spot and stuck to it

Looked but no luck. Our GPS had us looking in a large area. Probably 10m square. We guessed the likely style of the cache but nothing found. After 25 minutes we moved along. We will put it in the too hard basket.
Really tough to find but got there in the end. Spoke in the ground was broken. Thanks.
We were about to leave when when I saw it looks as though it's lose as it came out weplaced it back after done
A very late log, found with parkacruz and piknik15 but we never logged online which we are now rectifying TFTC
Out with Smileyjims and piknik15 and stopped off to grab a few smilies on a short break on our busy day, a great hide that we are happy to add our name too TFTC
We almost gave up on this one. It is the very first one I have ever found in Australia. Fittingly, it is close to our friends house.
The hint really helps! It’s in a rather odd spot though. Had a great time looking for it, almost tripped over it. Looks a little like this
Pay attention to the hint! Tricky one but my daughter was stoked to find it thank you!
Lovely place to stop on a Lovely fresh morning on my way to work. Love the hiding spot. Tftc
Thanks . This is brilliant! Definately needed the hint. Thanks Grammie and Grumpy. Hard to write the log though.
This one is hidden where most people wouldn’t think to look - very creative indeed
I don't know how many times I've looked for this little guy but today I in passing he was just sitting there waiting for me to find him!
Out to show a girlfriend and her 2 daughters how to cache and had gone through the map near her home to get some very different caches so as they could see a variety of hides.
My girlfriends eldest daughter spotted this cache, they were in love with geocaching by this stage! TFTC Grammie & Grumpy:)
I apologise for the late posting of finding this cache (I have been sick and then completely forgot).

A nice quick find here thanks to the hint.
TFTC Grammie & Grumpy this is find # 1860 for us

After success at our last GZ by the CO we decided to head down the road a little to another park and another find by the CO. I made the quick find in a quiet park as it had fallen over and was a little obvious. Great camo job here signed log and returned it as it should be in the same spot. TFTC Grammie & Grumpy
Started off about 10m from GZ, but after sorting that out (and taking a look at a spoiler photo) eventually made the find. TFTC Grammie & Grumpy.
This was a tricky little hide. I searched around for a while, the GPS kept jumping around and sending me to other places, and I had checked the hint, and even seen the cache but not put my thinking cap on.
Later I went back to that spot after examining quite a few others, and voila! there was the well concealed cache. Very clever, thanks Grammie & Grumpy!

I'm sure I've DNFed here a few times previously, but I also found the cache once too. Either way, I resigned the log although it looks like the signatures wipe off. Thanks for the cache.
Up in Canning vale area, for a meeting , decided to pick up a couple of caches before heading home.tftc
Well it took a while to find as I had to dodge muggles. But it was eventually found. That is a nice camo!! TFTC
With a morning to myself I had a few errands to run, and then grab a couple of caches
At GZ found plenty of options. Didn't take too long to make the find.
Grammie & Grumpy. SVKR_WA found your cache on 27 October 2016. This find brings our finds count to 1648.
We have signed the log and replaced the hide as found.
Thanks for bringing us to this place.

TFTC! Another Thursday afternoon caching run with Cravo10. We've slowed down on the Ji bet of bush caches were getting due to the warmer weather and the serpents coming out of their winter hidey holes.
Today we focused our attention on the south eastern suburbs of Perth starting with the tour de Tonkin series in Armadale before heading down Wharton road to grab a few park and grabs through the southern river and canning vale areas including some of the laxa pepper pig series of puzzles which I made a meal of inputting the wrong cache co ordinates into the Cachly app before heading out so I really struggled finding a t4 tree climbing cache which was meant to be a small micro!! Alas we DNF at both caches at the same location!!
One of the highlights of the day was the teamaustralia cache tubular trouble PB problem, which had a great camo and a great concept behind it, special thanks to team laxa for keeping it going after the owners left the game.
We then ventured through parkwood and bull creek collecting more park and grabs before heading into duck territory to cleanup some of his latest creations, including his 100th hide dead end at the site of the old pumps01 cache which sadly had to be archived (was some of my fondest early moments of caching).
We then completed the prospecting fun puzzle and evil intent caches at piney lakes which were both great although we had trouble locating the nuggets, we only managed to find two but the numbers were rusted off so we did the old try every combination trick whilst trying to desperately locate more nuggets and whilst walking back and forth to evil intent cache which was another good duck cache and different too.
Thanks to the local COs for a greats days caching.

TFTH out and about with Barnzy12.
Another great day with the sun shining and warm day compared to the long winter we have had.
Found a variety of cache types today as we cleared the map in and around the canningvale area. Drove past work on multiple occasions today however not once was I keen to go in.
Thanks to all the COs for the placement of the caches TFTC

Quick find while out and about hitting up garage sales. Cache has water in it but log still writeable. Tftc
No chance I would have thought to look there without the hint but that made it relatively quick. Log is wet and I couldn't sign it even with my trusty permanent pen. Have taken a photo of required
Found in a neat place with a plastic log sheet. Brilliant hide. TFTH Grammie & Grumpy.
Cool hide. Log is a bit old and cannot read other entries. Saw a cool bug as well. Not a travel one but local
A few muggles in the distance had to time my search but I found the sneaky hide pretty quickly tftc
Finally found it! Also found some supplies for our own caches!!! Score! Tftc G & G!!
Lucky we'd found a few similar so kind of knew what to look for. TFTC! Not an easy find.
Out riding with geo daughter and she says any geo caching around here!! Good hide tricky to find!
Just relogging under a new account. Signed log under an old account of dcorunna on this day
After looking for the 2nd time in Karri park for over an hour, there is still no sighting of the cache.
I've let the geoteam down! Could not find after a 20min search. May return later on my journeys
Out on the mid afternoon sun.
GPS keeps bringing me to a tree, I know i'm near but I wasn't sure what I was looking for.

It's well dark by now and there're some dodgy looking customers hanging around the kids playground. (Perhaps they thought I was a bit dodgy too, snooping around in the bush after dark.)
But with the trusty torch I had a quick find of a cache similar to another I grabbed a short while ago.
TFTC Grammie & grumpy.

A quick found second time round for this one as the first time it was nearly dark when I searched, wasn't surprised i didn't find it then. Was able to sign the and replace before the dog walking muggles came past.
