Found at 3:41 PM GAFF2.We were in the vicinity on our way back to camp so we decided to head over and have another go. This time we concentrated on a different level and suddenly something literally popped up! It was the camo that had been buried by sand!We now understand how we missed it yesterday as we were kind of misled by the "magnetic" part of the cache description Thanks to The Westy MobFeedback: It's now IPS.
DNF at 3:00 PM. Well call us amateurs, but we checked the area and came up with nothing Must not be that much "in plain view" or else surely we would have seen it - well maybe we were not looking with the right type of hide in mind.
Thank you for placing this cache. We were so lucky that the cache owner walked past to give us a hand- Thankyou.
Hi there The Westy Mob. We're here in Geraldton for several months house/dog sitting while the owners are away holidaying. We found this cache today at about 11:54:00 AM. TN, LN, SL. Thanks to The Westy Mob for this cache - our find 10817 and the 3rd of 6 finds for the day.FieldNotes: The cache and log were both found in good condition.
Im really not having any luck finding caches in Geraldton. My 5th DNF. Had a bit of a search around but found nothing suspicious of a hidden cache. I was loosing light and the dogs across the road were kicking up a fuss with their owner coming onto the veranda to tell them to be quiet. Time to abandon this one. Another sad face on the Geraldton map. Maybe one day Ill get back this way.
Looks like some work has been done where the cache would have been so needs maintenance please
Could not find this one today! not sure if it needs maintenance- JACK AND ALIYAH
Caching in the Greater Geraldton area today. Our intention for the day was to attack some power trails and do map cleanup around town.
Quick find. Noisy dogs across the road though. Cache needs a new log. Cheers The Westy Mob!

Day 3 of the road trip with the boys C10,B12,L1.77 - lots of laughs and perhaps a little therapy will be needed after this trip. But one thing is for sure - I am determined to get a few more yellows on the map on my final full day here in Gero. Many thanks to the COs for the mix of caches. Sorry for the genetic log
Sneaky hide thanks
Sneaky hide thanks
After enjoying the waves at Drummond Point this was an easy park and grab cache.

After about a hour of looking was able to find put back in original spot. Do need a keen eye but with patience it’s is easy to find. Good luck guys
Thanks The Westy Mob for placing and maintaining this cache. Out and about with Barnzy12 getting a few smily faces.
Found yesterday. Camo is missing, look where the internets arrow points you and you shall find it.
Heading north for a camping weekend in Kalbarri and plugged a few random caches in to grab on the drive up This was one that I stopped at. What a lovely spot, shame I didn't have the geohound with me, he'd have loved a run here Parked up right by GZ and made an immediate find of the cache - a very brazen 'hide'! Just as I got back in the car the occupants of the house opposite pulled up in their car, what's the chances! Close one, but I left undetected All good here - TFTC
My first for Geraldton. Arriving from Albany yesterday good to be out on the trial. Cache needs some attention.
Thanks
Thanks
Day twenty of our 'loop tour'. As per previous logs - found it. Thanks The Westy Mob
I don't think I found the original cache. This one had only 1 log and was about 10m from gz. Tftc
Up in Geraldton for IGD and to clean up some more of the map, another smiley claimed TFTC
We searched and searched but all to no avail here. Nice spot but only a sad face for us today. Thanks for bringing us here The Westerly Mob.

Thanks The Westy Mob
Thanks The Westy Mob
Was relieved to make a quick find here after our last DNF. Neat cache, thanks Westy Mob!
TFTC! This cache was found on my two and a bit day GeoTrip to Geraldton and surrounds to attend the International Geocaching Day event in Greenough.
The weekend started with a nighttime drive from Perth to Geraldton getting in at 1140pm after finding a couple of caches along the way in the dark. I rose on my first day in town as grabbed supplies before some CBD caching and then some more hides in Greenough before the event. I had a nice little run after the event following the guys chasing a few of the FTFs before getting back to my planned routes to help cleanup a lot of the newly published caches since my last visit in 2013. Had a reasonable day, which went Pretty pear shaped come mid afternoon, with a large number of DNFs in the northern Geraldton suburbs. I returned to my accomodation to freshen up and watch a bit of footy before heading out again on a night time run around the CBD. Big Mistake. had one of those blind nights, where the easy finds were impossible and I resorted to PAF to help guide me on some of the simplest hides!!
I was back on the saddle the next day grabbing a bunch of caches in southern Geraldton before attending the CITO event. Grabbed a few bits of rubbish and got talking to the local COs, where were most amused by my DNFs LOL. They were gracious enough to provide a large number of hints which Ive stored in the memory bank for next year!
Thanks to all of the locals for your hospitality this weekend and I'm looking forward to attending next year! Thanks

A neat container here . Now the hint makes sense! The log book is not full
The jinta mob decided to head north to Geraldton for the third time to celebrate International Geocaching Day! We grabbed a variety of caches along the way and this was one of them. A great weekend away and we can't wait until next year.

Out and about with jrlt we knew what we were looking for and after a small search dodging passing muggles Geo J gave the 'got it' cry and we all crowded around for a look! Nice camo! TFTC
We joined forces with Robroy_co for this one. With advice to the GeoJuniors to watch out for doggie land mines we hunted here and there and did our best to look inconspicuous for the passers by. GeoJ made to discovery of this very well camo'd cache. TFTC The Westy Mob!
Took newbie Whippet to show some different hides. Found it straight away. Great hide and very excited young Whippet.
Nicely and naturally disguised. Log itself a bit the worse for wear. May need looking at.

Checking out the sights of Geraldton on a few days stopover.
Hardly any muggles around and mostly good quick finds.
Seen a few like this, but they are always a good fun hide.

Found it but couldn't log. Stuck on/in a snail hahah. Might need to be replaced.
And our second find. Great hiding place. Found it in a matter of minutes getting out of the car.
A previous log made this one easier to find. But I smiled when I did find it.... very cute. TFTC
