Such a beautiful sunny Winters day so after attending an afternoon appointment I decided the next couple of hours would be best spent on the treadley knocking off a few of The Periodic Table series of caches.

My strike rate was a bit hit and miss along the way sometimes moving along after only a short search due to time constraints so there were a few DNF's in the mix. But seeing as most containers had been either replaced or checked recently, I was thankful for 14 finds today.

Great to see this epic series being maintained so many thanks to Cirrus_WA and to BlaKids for placing the series initially. What a huge task!

TFTC

Heading south collecting a few more in this series.

That was a very neat rock.

Out n about finding some caches TFTH

Out for a cycle today to grab the final caches in the periodic table series. I alighted at Warnbro Station with my bike, cycle along Safety Bay Rd via Baldivis and then hit the tarmac. Finished up at Kwinana and enjoyed a well air conditioned train ride back up the freeway. All caches were in good condition unless otherwise mentioned below. Thanks to all the COs.

Quick find. All is well here. Cheers Cirrus_WA!

Nice one.

After a big morning at Lake Walyungup, I thought I’d hit the PT series from the bottom of the table up. I made 19 finds and one DNF in the series. This is an excellent series spanning a huge distance. Well done on maintaining it. TFTC

Quick find here.
TFTC BlaKids, adopted by CJ_252 this is find # 7881 for us.

Find 5 of 13 caches on a 7 km walk my young fella today clearing the area within walking distance of home. TFTC

With our bicycles we made the series from the elements.
Here we began with Nr. 49 and are able to find every cache. Some logbook was wet, than we spent a new sheet of paper. So it was an successful day and we had a lot of fun.

Thank you and greetings from Germany send Moorhelmi

Nice easy find! TFTC! LS! RAF!

Another quick find

5th one today. Nice quick find

Easy to see and great coordinates. Thanks

Spent the day completing the southern section of the PT Series.

Started up at Mortimer Rd and had an enjoyable walk southward.

Ended the that with 25 finds and 5 DNF’s that I will rectify soon. TFTC.

Cool find

Yeah second one for the day. Kids loving periodic table

Today’s mission, find 54 caches so I can get that World Turtle Souvenir. 4 down, 50 to go. TFTC

Out with Nan (neva2old) parkacruz and piknik15 working on our souvenirs, hopefuully we will have enough today. tftc

DNF the first time but found on return.

Thank you! As I had a day off work, Photo_Play and I teamed up today to do the Periodic Table caches south of Thomas Road. Knowing that rain was expected in the afternoon, we made an early start on the bicycles. Most caches were straightforward finds, with a couple requiring a more thorough search.

Found It. TFTC BlaKids. My Visa was still current, so I teamed up with Ullyssia and came down to complete the Periodic Table series south from Thomas rd. Great series.

Out and about finishing the periodic table today, hopefully it stays nice and cool for this short run today.

A weekend caching with Pood, on the bikes. we found this on Sunday, much warmer than yesterday. TFTC

Im after numbers for January and what better way to start than with some periodic table caches. I picked up m4yb at the end in Baldivas so she could leave her car there to save a ride back before heading to the Kwinana Train station (Free parking on Public holidays). Here we met up with Megawat60 and started our morning bike ride south (Hopefully early enough to beat the heat). We had a lovely ride with a gentle breeze keeping the temperature down for most of the way. My knees were a bit sore by the end but it was certainly an enjoyable and worthwhile morning with most of the caches quick finds shared amongst the 3 of us. The only dampener was the 2 DNFs in a row but that makes it easier to fix. TFTC and series LouBla and BlaKids

Out with WebblyWA for her numbers and m4yb for the exercise before it gets too hot.

Thanks for the series and I am glad to have it ticked off the list bar the few DNF's

The ride continues. It is warming up but the end is in sight. Megawat60, WebblyWA and I take turns being the lucky finders, we sign the log (as M, W & M for speed and so we dont take up too much log space!) and onto the next one.
About there we spied a 4WD in the bushes at the side of the freeway... a speed camera but he didn't get us! TFTC!

A bit warm out there this morning in our attempt to complete the Periodic Table. Had to be on the look-out for any of our reptilian friends but breathing easy now. Thanks for setting up this lengthy set of caches BlaKids and loubla.

Decided today was a great day for a bike ride and some caching along the way so what better series to do than this one!So we took off early this morning to see how many we could find before the bike seat became a pain in the butt! SL TFTC

Found it. Madeline G.

Another quickie TFTC

Out with hhheddy & dezzabills polishing off this series by bike. It's been an interesting journey, reciting thru the table of elements one by one, like back in science class. The overall distance daunting, but just kept focused one at a time; having buddies help search effort and spur each other along to the end invaluable. As anticipated most caches were easy to find and in good condition, some required extra effort; couple out in the open, couple half-buried; dozen wet log papers. In hindsight could've been prepared to dry log papers & bring some mint tin replacements.
Thank you for the cache series!

tftc blakids

I have been looking at the periodic table series of caches for some time now. Since I have decided to complete a challenge I need the numbers hence the reason for the run today. I took the day off work and co=opted a couple of fellow cachers, Lazarus_68 and Dezzabills. I thought a couple of days would finish the series off, So today we set off early on our pushbikes with the idea of completing as many as we could manage. As it turns out we made it all the way to the end. We were very fortunate to find the caches quicker than expected. So to sum up the day we found 117 caches in the periodic table and a couple of extras along the way giving me a grand total of 119 for the day. Not bad if I say so myself, and surprisingly there were no DNF's so all in all a great day. The ride down from home in Como took us 6 hours and 58 minutes. While my fellow cachers took the train home I toughed it out and rode home in just over 2 hours. We stopped several times down and back for a break and a bite to eat to refuel the bodies.

This was the 116th find of 119 for the day and was found at 2:58PM Thanks BlaKids/loubla for the cache. hhheddy

Found Flerovium (114). TFTH BlaKids.

Yay! Tftc!

ReadyRex found your cache. Took a minute or two to find this one but there it was. Signed the log. This is our 1345 find. Thanks BlaKids & LouBla for the hunt.

Yay. First one for the ride.

Went out for a bike ride with jackyleggs, we rode almost 30 kms
It was good exercise, but we pulled up a bit sore.
Tftc

Out for a ride today, to pick up some caches, and what a misson it was. Started at Cockburn shopping centre,and finished off at Baldivis, 26 km of pain. 76 finds and 3 dnfs for the day.Thanks to Roma308 for joining the misson.Tftc sl tnln.

Plastic test-tube made me laugh! Matches theme perfectly!

Out this afternoon with Oshiel and jjjzellis to start the Periodic Table. TFTC - find #8 today

Not so much cover here but I don't sopose any one on the highway can stop to see what I'm up to anyway

Decided today to finish off the periodic table series and rack up some numbers. Threw the treadly into the back of the ute and parked up near Sulphur Rd, Headed south along the bike path and came back via some of the back roads. 28k's and about 6½ hours later I was back at the car totally knackered. Spent a good portion of the return journey walking the bike along the busier roads.

About to leave empty handed then spotted the dodgy camo.

BlaKids I found your cache at 10:36am, this was the 28th of 37 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 2895. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

I'm looking forward to meeting other geocachers in Pinjarra at the 'WA GOES BIG IN 2016' event on the 4th - 5th June. Registrations now open.

Up in Perth for a week from Albany, this trail was number one on the list of things to do. Starting in Perth and riding south we managed to find most caches in the series with only 4 that we couldn't find! We had some test tubes of our own which we replaced with some of the more broken containers but unfortunately didn't have enough to replace them all. Thanks for the epic series guys and also for maintaining them so well!

Found with axell33 and geodog. Slowly but surely we are counting the periodic table down! Tyftc

Found this one with Leega and the Geopooch. Short search turned up the prize. Another couple of the periodic table down at this rate we should have them done by 2018. TFTC BlaKids.

On holidays from SA staying with Yangebup Mick , Had previously done the middle section , Was dropped off down south and Picked up at the Leach Hwy , Thanks for the fun BlaKids

Tftc Cheers

A bit hidden but found it in the end. TFTC

Epic fail you pwned us n00bs... You are only as good as your next find.

Found on the second look. It eluded me heading out.
Given a whole day to go caching in Perth the inner scientist in Freddo could not resist the geeky awesomeness of a Periodic Table PT. With bicycle supplied by .K.B. I travelled by train to Kwinana and folllowed the trail of elements from one end to the other. The cache finds ranged from seen as I arrived, to hides that have me looking for twice the 3 minutes I had allowed. Some caches were replaced. A few caches were unfound and will stand as DNF's.
I know these elements. My job as a metallurgist means that I deal with a large portion of the common 92 at work. There was a sense of pride reeling them off. And then there was the joy of cruising along on a bike on a beautiful winter day that actually feels like an Indian summer.

This cache was found using a Garmin GPSr, Montana 650t, Oregon 550 or Dakota 20. Waypoints and paperless geocaching downloaded via GSAK 8.

Out on a maintenance run. Previous problems reported on this one. Found it easily, moving on. BlaKids.

Maintenance performed, see previous log, happy hunting.

Day thirty one of the WA road trip with BettyBoo3747.
Spent the day on the deadly treadlies riding a part of the Periodic Table Series. We started in the lower third at Francium, and went south until we ran out of elements, then back to the car for a picnic lunch.
After lunch we headed north as far as Holmium before calling it a day.
Two DNFs and a few replaced containers due to fire damage (BB will send you an email with details), but on the whole most were good hides, and very accurate co-ordinates.
A good sized container to base the power trail upon.
Lots of bike riding muggles (and a caching one - Hi, Clan-Wallace!), but most had their head down speeding along the trail.
A lovely day for a ride and cache.

A lot of chopping of the path side plants had happened here, and all the rubble swept under the bushes. I suspect the cache is somewhat buried and we didn't uncover it today. A DNF for us here.

Thanks for this section of the trail, Robmc.

We spent quite a bit of time searching here but the shrubbery to the ground and prickly at that meant it was too difficult to search well. There has been quite a bit of trimming here also.

Headed Off with Geoson this morning on the bikes to complete a major section of this series.
It was frustrating me seeing all those green icons on the side of the freeway as I drove to work so I wanted to get rid of them

3 1/2 hours, 19km, and a lot of smileys later, we called it quits. A great run with most being easy finds. A couple of hunts, and scrambles but all in all an enjoyable morning.

All the caches and logs are in good condition. Some of the logs looking a bit tired but definatley will last a bit longer.

This was cache number 5 out of 59 for today. Also our total find number 2494
Thanks BlaKids for this hide.

With tree cover all the way to the ground it took a bit of prodding to find the ununquadium. TFTC.

Originally found under family caching name clan-wallace, now re logging under own name.

This series caught our eye back in UK before visiting family in Secret Harbour, so we decided to make a start. Got dropped off at Kwinana Station and cycled south to Safety Bay road. It was a good bike path and very quiet, only meeting a couple of other cyclists. We did meet a couple of snakes and a really nasty looking, large spider. The caches were all reasonably easy to find, barring a couple. The coordinates were mostly very accurate and we had a really good day. TFTC.

Introduced to geocaching by a workmate and really liked the idea of it. Found a few with him and was hooked pretty quickly. He said to try this power trail because it was a good way to get an understanding of what this treasure hunt is all about and a great way to start off. Got a few tips and tricks with a good briefing, signed me up with an account and said to call if I got stuck. Well i must say that once the first couple were found the rest seemed to just jump out. I got the knack of this I think. Had such a good time finding them i didn't read about the elements, will do that tonight when at home by myself and the place is kid free. Was told to cut and paste a big story onto each one so, I guess this is it. Had the day off work and the missus has the kids over in Merredin for the weekend. Got up early today, packed a bag of goodies and the dusty mountain bike and I set off. Backpack full of water and plenty of sangas, I was set for the day. Wasn't sure if I would get to the end but was determined to find a bunch. I reckon the kids will love this when they get back.

Find 4 of 57
Our second day on this power trail with a stretch objective to do all 57 caches that were left - objective achieved, our only DNF at Sodium which was expected after a run of DNFs since the path was re-modelled through that section. Train to Kwinana, ride down to Safety Bay, turn north for 35 caches all found quickly before lunch at Cockburn Central. Quick ride half way to Murdoch then 22 more caches to the finish and the train home from Canning Bridge. An excellent day out, thanks Loubla and BlaKids.

After completing the northern part of this series yesterday, I wanted to strike while the iron was hot today and finish off the southern part. I left home at 8.30am and returned home at 12.40pm after a 33.1km ride with 39 caches and no DNFs. I thoroughly enjoyed the series, and will be happy to do the ride again to collect the few smilies that I missed yesterday. Thanks for the ride and the series loubla and BlaKids.

We thought today would be a good day for a bike ride, so what better than to ride the Kwinana Freeway Bike Trail and indulge both our passion for caching and interest in science by completing the Periodic Table Of The Elements.
We probably ‘bit off more than we could chew’, but what do you do then? Take bigger bites and chew like mad!!
Both Mr & Mrs SKI have completed science degrees in their youth, Mr SKI an Applied Chemistry one. We actually met at Uni in some shared chemistry and physics classes. Mrs SKI uses her qualification regularly, but this may be the first time Mr SKI has really made use of his in over 35+ years. A dubious statistic!
We really enjoyed the ride on another of Perth’s fabulous bike tracks. They are wonderful. Thanks to the crew for the considerable effort that has gone into producing the series.
Apologies for the generic log, but at the end of a long day we are unable to remember individual hides.

Out on me new mountain bike today grabbing some caches along the way. We trekked over 30 kms today just on our bikes alone. Had mikirst with me for company. TFTC

A lovely day for a bike ride along the freeway with S'n'N to find some caches.

A beautiful Winter's day and a chance to knock over a few more elements.
8/13 today

TFTC. Back to get some more.

Found today on our geo bike caching expedition along the freeway cycle path . Quick find, log signed and we were soon on our way. Thanks for putting this cache here. All good with the cache.

This morning we started to do the second part of the periodic table series, as the first part was only published until no. 80 last year in January. Fortunately it was not as hot as yesterday, but 26° was still warm. It was a nice bike ride along the freeway and we found all containers, saw lots of very big spiders [xx(] and finally solved the Periodic Table.

TFTC and best regards from Germany.

I got on the train in Rockingham with my bike and got off at Kwinana train station where I started my caching trip south to Baldivas. This was a very hot day to go caching. I got just less than 40 caches in two hours and one DNF. Thanks for a great trail and tomorrow we will tackle the northern section. Greetings from Sweden.

Decided to take an early morning train trip South and cycle back home picking up a few caches along the way. Thanks. Great fun.
