No longer geocaching, so will not be replacing the cache. Hope it brought new people to this beautiful area while it was still active. Happy caching
Found it after swimming lessons at Bicton Baths. Pretty easy find, though got our hands a bit dirty. Contains only wet logs. Not signed. TFTC
Easy find with small hands. We couldnt write on log though as it was soaked...
Found it but had a hard time reaching it. Log is an unusable sodden mess. TFTC jazzy5390 but needs some TLC.
Easy find. Log is waterlogged and its s little close to houses so watch out for muggles
Found this cache during our 2 week trip around Australia. 
Nice and easy find!
Cache was wet!!!!
Thanks for the cache!

Quick found with BissraFranky after attending the event nearby. Log is so wet we are unable to sign but took a photo of the cache. TFTC jazzy5390 
Easy find, nice spot.. No muggles in sight. Log is very wet so couldn't sign.
Good find, we thought it wasn't there but keep using the hint to find it! TFTC!¡
I found I. I left my mark. I replaced it and I left. TFTC. This was a tight fit. It was not going to work with my hands. I had to return to my car and get my long thin grabbie thingie from my geo kit. I got my smiley, but I did not even attempt to take the log out of the plastic bag, it was so wet. I left my mark in the piece of paper left by kelliezappa
Found it but unfortunately the log has gotten wet with recent rain I have added a new piece of paper but the log and inside plastic bag is wet 
almost missed it flash required
almost missed it flash required Great little hiding spot for this cache. Lovely lot pf Peppermint trees so glad the gps coords were spot on. TFTC!
Quick find thanks to empty park. Tfth. Maybe quick go on the swings then off to the next find. Thanks.
Day sixty one of the WA road trip with BettyBoo3747.
The last day in Perth before the long trip home. Jumped on the deadly treadlies and rode up to and along the Swan River. Lovely day for it. Lunch at Point Walter. Very hard to take!
As others have said, the log was mash. BB removed the cache and replaced it with a new (mint tin) and logbook in plastic bag - good to go.
Thanks, Robmc.

# 8289. Sadly our last day in the Fremantle area before we start our journey homewards. A beautiful day to get on the bikes and ride down to the river to enjoy the views and find some caches. We lunched at beautiful Point Walter. A great way to finish our time here. The tally was 15 finds and 3 DNF's (seem to be getting quite a few DNF's lately).
I removed the mushy logs (gross) from the container and left a new log sheet in a plastic bag in a new eclipse tin. This cache is all good to go again for now. A shame the CO appears to have lost interest in the game and his cache hides.
Thanks jazzy5390

What an awesome view!
Unfortunately wasn't able to sign as logs are wet and moldy. Needs a little tlc

Nice hide, although good luck to anyone with bigger hands than I. Might need a stick or something. Log is very damp. TFTC!!!!
Cache needs some serious love from the owner. The container clearly not waterproof and the hiding spot must pool with water because the log was very very wet.
A quick find but the log was soaking wet, rusty water going everywhere. Added a bit of paper to sign and headed off to the next hunt. TFTC
Elrin and I had this one as our first find of the day! Unfortunately, as others have mentioned the log is very damp, and in our case the tin was actually half full of water... We signed on some paper I had in my bag but this one definitely needs a bit of attention and maybe replacing with a new tin that is a little more waterproof.
Otherwise, it was a beautiful, quiet park with a lovely view of the river, and some great houses to look at on the walk up from the carpark!

Log sheet needs replacing. It is totally saturated as lid of tin was open and container was sitting in a pool of water. I had no supplies with me.
Quick find this morning after waiting for a bunch of recreational cyclists to pass by. However, I could not sign the log. I didn't even try as it is totally saturated. The lid of the tin was open and the tin was sitting in a pool of water. (I have attached photo instead). Definitely needs attention. I had no supplies with me. Thanks for the cache jazzy5390.
Not as close to the river as I was expecting but I did discover a nice park. Quick find thanks to the clear instructions in the description. Tftc
Nice easy find after dropping kid at the Bicton Baths for school. Nicely fills in a hole in my caching calendar. Only 11 days to go. Will have to check. A new log would be good here. Thanks jazzy5390 for the hide.

This was quite an easy find after I found the right tree to look in. Surprised to see three lollies that were probably bad. Btw WHATS WRONG WITH THE LOG???
Ok another quick find on a lovely Sunday. The log is in several pieces and is fragile beyond description. TFTC.
We were out and about in East Freo today and stopped in at this one while waiting for an appointment. I've ridden my bike past here many times before.
A quick-ish find. Thanks for the cache jazzy5390!

Wow, sticking my hands to extract this tin was tough but I succeeded in signing a really tatty log. TFTC
Fun find. Kids having a ball (big and small) took grey dinosaur and put green dinosaur inside. Loving the peppermint tree hunt around the area. Now heading to the coast for some ocean views. TFTC
Nice spot, easy find. No pen and log book is soggy. Toys were taken but we added one
Out finishing off the souvenir caches thing this afternoon and grabbed a couple more along the way. SL TFTC.
We were a bit apprehensive before we got near this one. The previous two we looked for along the river involved some serious scrambling on some steep riverbanks. Thankfully this one was much easier to access, set in a lovely park with some great houses nearby and a water view. Great spot to hide a cache.

Finished work and I had 2 hours before the sunset...It was a quick run to aim for 500 caches in one month...TFTC
Hey guys we found it. It was quite easy and fun we put some bracelets and lacky band characters in :)
:)Container was waaaaaay down in its hideyhole and couldnt retrieve it without a magnetic stick.
