4 DNFs and not found since last year. Time for CO to confirm its still there.
Couldn't find this one, thought admittedly I may not have looked as hard as I could have, seeing as people were everywhere, parking their cars right up to tree line.
No luck today. Log hints were gave me good idea of what to look for sorry no luck
Found!! No where near where i searched before!! Signed somewhere on the full log tftc

Great hiding spot! Log is full so couldn't sign. A bit too realistic looking!!!
Quick find, first place I looked. Just enough room to scrawl my initials. TFTC.
Maybe I just got lucky with this one, but I found it in the first place I looked. Very surprised! Log is full. TFTC thelb3ll
Pretty sure what I was looking for but only found the genuine artifact!
Gps was sending me this way and that. Found what could be an offending item but no log. Then muggles got more & I had to move on
Out for a day of caching north of the river again.
Found without problems as I suspected what this one was before arriving.
Thanks thelb3ll for the cache.

Made a relatively early start this morning, heading up to the northern suburbs for a caching foray. Lots of finds throughout the day, so lots of smileys too. Managed to find this little blighter quickly enough. Thanks (I think!!) thelb3ll
The GPSr had us a good few metres out on the grass but we broadened the search a little to make a reasonably quick find.
We've seen a couple of these previously but we always poke 'em with a stick first....don't want to grab a real one, do we?

This was our first of a day up north with m4yb, certainly has that yukkie factor, but glad to be safe to handle and now a smilie. Thanks thelb3ll.
On our Friday caching day, megawat60 drove geoJazz #2, parked it up the road and we looked for 3 caches. This one was first up, I had a bit of an idea from reading the logs and was happy to make the find, which I prodded first just to make sure. TFTC thelb3ll!
Another full day of Geocaching With Mr Drovers today to finish the area we didn't cover last Monday. It is a beautiful day and lots of great hides along the way. TFTC
Another enjoyable day, caching with JacobsCrew.
We headed to the north of Perth, where we visited lots of
local urban parks & bushland, with a good variety of hides.
Thanks for the cache, thelb3ll.

I've seen the same style of cache before but it still had the eeew factor. Thanks thelb3ll.
Walked down to this one from the
"wheels on the bus"with Mr Felix.
Spotted the cache immediately on our arrival. So quickly onto the next.

Another opportune chance for us to hunt some caches for an hour with The Machman.
Mr Felix and The Machman walked to this one from The wheels on the bus whilst Mrs Felix returned for the car. At GZ there were plenty of work vehicles and trucks nearby but they paid them no heed as they searched.
Have seen one of these caches before, but slightly different. Reckon the placement of this one is great. Should last here.

As always, cant understand how I missed it the first time, retrieval tool mk 1 very handy. TFTC.
I was given a hint by a previous finder, happy to say it's still here and within 5m of my GZ. TFTC thelb3ll
Super hide on a super Morning.
Unlike yesterday when the weathewr matched the cache.

This cache container was muggled again! Will place a different container before replacing .
Logging a 2nd DNF here. I had the same GZ today as the first day of publication. That matched everyone else's GZ on the day too.
I have placed green tape on the wall at the GZ I know everyone is getting, I'd be grateful if you can check the distance of the tape from your GPSr GZ. I found one of your caches 20m away from the listed GZ this morning and then another one that was spot on! Perhaps you need to check which DATUM your device is using.

Yes, sometimes it does happen - and today it was a quick find with iluvtrekking. Interesting container thelb3ll.
Found the coordinates to be out a little but we still made the find quickly enough with richlink. Thanks for the cache an novel container.
After a DNF, I checked it was still there and that the coordinates were right. The coordinates were exact on 5 different devices and cache was still there.
Return visit - quick find, as we knew all the likely spots. Can see why it might have been muggled! Thanks for sorting it.

Just upgraded to premium member and playing around with pocket queries for the first time, this listing came up in my search so race out the door as this park is 2 minutes from my house to see if I could be FTF. Arrived GZ and began search. Had muggle dog walkers continuously walking by with their doggy doo shovels and bags, So acting casual was the key (but was looking very on the suss side) Was sure I found the cache but to no avail. Had a look at the clue and starting prodding around with my stick, Persistences paid off Can see why the first cache was muggled so quickly as we really love our clean parks In Iluka. FTF 1200 31/8 TFTC thelbell

While I was at church I saw that this one had been re-enabled, so I decided to drop in after church to find this one and some of the others in the area. The GPS initially sent me to the wrong cluster of trees, but after searching there for a while and coming up empty I moved to the other spot, and soon found the cache.
I was second to find around 1pm. Thanks for the cache thelb3ll!

Well I approached this one in two minds....1/ Will I succeed where others failed or 2/This might be hard...
Well it defeated Me folks... Must be a unique one will try again I am sure...

Arrived on the scene to find olthomas searching. We looked together for another 20 minutes until GHFB arrived also. The 4 us us continued searching until we all lost heart and reluctantly left without smiley. But not before GHFB graciously gifted a Pathtag!
Was great to put faces to screen names and chat to both olthomas and GHFB, Great to meet you all!
Will watch the logs and hopefully return soon.
After a lap of the park to try the other 3 caches i returned (stubbornly) to have another look, no epiphany...

Another frustrating search. Mrs O headed for this one having thrown the kids out at kiss and drive at school and gone straight there. Well I searched for a good 20 mins (avoiding the neighbours comings and goings) before Mr O texted to say he was on his way. We searched together for another 5 mins before Amryall showed (nice to meet you!) and then maybe another 5-10 mins before Ghfb arrived. So four of us searched to no avail. We even got clever and worked out how far out previously published caches had been found from the published GZ and tried that.... still no luck. But it wasn't a complete waste of time. I found $2.70!!!! Will be interested to see how the logs pan out for this one.
Arrived at GZ to find olthomas and amryall already on the hunt. After 30 mins of searching (for me) I've left them to it. Today my caching is North. Nice to meet you amryall.
