This seems to regularly go missing. I am archiving it and will come up with a better replacement in the near future
Long search with out luck. There are some new tree cuttings so we suspect that it went with them.
From previous logs we were prepared and took a replacement container just in case! We found the totally damaged container, looks like a lawnmower did some damage indeed. We managed to get a part of th logbook out and a large part of the geocaching leaflet. We re-used both for the newly camoed container and tucked it away "high and dry" so hopefully no further damage to be done. TFTC arnott.family.
I found the cache, but unfortunately it seems to have been run over by a lawnmower or something else as it's quite squashed. I tried to extract the log, but couldn't get it out, so I scribbled an 'R' through the small opening. Picture attached.
This one could do with a replacement, as it's also missing its lid and won't be any good in the rain.
Thanks for the cache arnott.family.

Yes, found the munted cache container, log well and truly lodged in there tightly. TFTC
Must have mis lodged its self during the bad weather on the weekend so we have replaced it in a location we believe it may have been originally could owner please check when possible TFTC
Please check co ordinates and replace properly as was found laying in full view on the ground. Thanks
Took a couple of minutes to locate this cache; I was looking in all the wrong places! Thanks for the cache arnott.family.
Managed to find it at 7:30 at night with torches good spot, "For the Boys" was really a clue !
Great hiding place. We almost gave up looking for it. Forgot my pen do couldn't sign.
I will check this out when I am next in the area. Until then I will disable so as not to waste anyone's time.
Four pairs of eyes searched but we could not find this cache.
Thanks for the hunt arnott.family.

We did not find it today. I kind of hope it has been muggled - otherwise it's just me, not able to see the forest for the trees, so to speak! This goes on our 'try again later' list, which I'm sorry to say is getting way too long.
looked at GZ and didn't find it. Lots of signs that young muggles have been in the area so have a sad feeling it's been found by muggles
It had me looking in the wrong location to start with but It was long before I spotted it...TFTC
TFTC Didn't have a pen to sign the log. Placed cache back where we found it
I found this cache with my family (jasenjanine) whilst driving through the area... Thanks arnott.family
After spending the day out around these parts, we stopped to find this cache on our way home... A quick find here for me, although it was Jase to start the search & obviously not in the right places

After last weekends earthcache event, I realized how many caches were still out this way waiting to be found. So we headed back up this way again this weekend. This one took a bit of searching, but I was determined to find it. Mundaring was my stepfathers first home (so he was truly a Mundaring Boy), and I think of him every time I come out this way. Thanks for the cache arnott.family
Had me foxed for a while, poking about the likely spots in a likely tree. Decided to stand back and take a wider look and then it struck me between the eyes. TFTC!
This was our 1st cache find in a caching run of 1 Finds & 0 DNFs today.
We found it at 10:56 so this now makes our total find count 7591.

this one just about beat us, just aswe were about to walk away we spoted it, very nice hide
[:(!] On our way to Northam to visit our six geograndchildren for the day and we picked up some caches along the way and this was one of them, parked the geocar as close as possible to GZ and walked in from there, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes.

Found in a different location to a previous visit by my geofriend out with me. Easy find
Heading home after a week away. Were wondering if we were going to be able to find a cache today when the Tomtom alerted us to a nearby unfound cache.
so a quick loop through Mundaring and we were in a dead end street with the caravan on the back [B)]
Out jumped Mr Felix to try for the cache whilst Mrs Felix stayed with the 'whingy' cat in the car. The approach to GZ was a bit squishy with all the recent rains but not too much trouble with the cache, the hardest part was getting the log out of the tin, the 'snaplock' is a bit too large and depending on how it is placed can be tricky removing.
Almost about to seek the pliers, but finally achieved mission impossible and the log was signed before trying to turn around with the van on.

*FTF* @ 9:06am. I'd been lurking round the naturist place up the road looking for Running Bare and was just giving up when I saw this one had just been published. Phew, I could get my souvenir for the day and a First to Find! A nice easy find made trickier by the torrential downpour and the boggy ground. Good camo! Thanks arnott.family
