If the throwdown was placed in the pruned tree at GZ then it’s gone - those two trees have been removed completely. If it was placed somewhere else then I checked the nearest alternative host but couldn’t find anything. So either the cache is gone or the coords are no longer correct - either way the CO needs to check on this one.
Found out it had been replaced so came back to grab it but they have replaced the carpark instead.
Couldn’t find it! Checked it out on a Wednesday night, very busy! There’s a lot of fencing around, not sure if it affects it or not. Saw a tree root laying on the ground. Will go back during the day time.
All good ..quiet spot on a sunny Monday morning..cache and log in good condition tftc
Thanks to Lyn Pat and Nathan for replacement... it is good hide spot. Signed the log as EV. thanks for the cache and hunt.
Performed maintenance. The other team logs show it must be missing. Obvious place at about head height and no other places so well concealed.
Container is about 80mm high and should be waterproof.

Knew we had the right place. I even brought along another mint tin to put the log in! Sadly I think it has now gone without a trace.
Luckily the parking place is almost empty this Sunday arvo. One more cache to reach 400 so going to 6009. TFTC!
Ditto. We found the logbook in situ in its plastic bag. Do we get bonus points for finding the lid of the mint tinTFTC
Cache missing although it appears from the activity comments that others have replaced it with a log in a bag. Suspect it was muggled by tree loopers.
Found the lid of a mint tin and some munched up metal which I guess was the cache. I replaced the log and put it on a ziplock bag . I hope this is ok with the owner.
Tree loppers have been. We found the blacked out lid to the mint tin cache but no cache or log. Needs replacing.
amryall, I found your cache Captain Fig . Log sheet is damp but writable . SL TFTH.
Ventured north of the river for a geo adventure. Lots of rain the first few hours but then settled to intermittent showers. We found 37 caches on our outing today.
A quick find here
TFTC amryall this is find # 1959 for us

There is a lot of regrowth on the fig tree that makes this cache quite difficult to find. It is still there. Thanks for the cache.
Not much of a fig tree, but easy enough to find. Log little bit wet, otherwise all good. Tftc!
Nicely hidden. Have driven past here a thousand times, but traveling by bike today.
Log paper was very wet, left in sunshine to dry for a minute. TFTC!

Relatively easy find... Cache a little waterlogged but log holding up alright. Shame I didn't have enough time to stop for a pint!
A quick stop by here on the way to the Royal show to see one of my ponies compete. Had to wait for a passerby before getting out of the car but its a nice quiet spot here and container was a quick find. Now on to the hustle and bustle of the show TFTC amryall
Enjoying a holiday in Perth with tmann421 and collecting a few caches along the way.
Another great hide here. TFTC

Quick and easy - and I avoided stopping in the local watering hole for a beer. Next time.
My first ever geocache experience, even tho not a swap cache, left a little something
A nice easy find in a nearly empty car park. The log was completely destroyed. Replaced log and left TB

Those fig trees are thriving! Lots of new growth and branches everywhere. I appreciated the hint, it made the find less frustrating. Thanks
Nice straight forward find there this morning in a great hiding spot. GZ was really quiet which made it easier. Thank you for the cache amryall.
I was just pulling into the car park when I had a call to pick up my friend from Hollywood Hospital, so thankfully it was a quick find after parking right next to said tree.

Happy to make a quick find here - car park was nice and quiet despite its proximity to the racetrack of Stirling Highway. TFTC!
Nice quick find. I was worried because I'm quite short. But had no troubles reaching it
A quick and easy park and grab near a place very familiar to me during my uni days. TFTC
Pulled into carpark enroute to UWA, hoping for food and amenities. Got a cache instead. Bargain.
Found it on an early morning bike ride, to keep my streak going. Nice and easy despite there being a few possible hiding spots. Log sheet(s) in good order (and dry) despite not being inside a ziplock bag. I didn't have one with me otherwise I'd have done it myself. Thanks for the cache amryall.
I had an appointment in this neck of the woods, so I stayed on the bus a few stops more. Walked to GZ, and saw a few young 'uns looking around the host, and as I approached one of them had the cache in hand, their first find.
TFTC amryall!

Heading down Stirling Highway after a caching run in Ellis Brook area to pick up my wife's spec's, which someone had found on the road in North Fremantle. Noticed this cache just off the highway, so decided to stop off and grab it.
Quick find and signed the log. Thanks for the hide amryall.

Found this on the way to Freo. I had Groucho Marx's song, 'Hooray for Captain Spaulding' in my head the whole time due to the name of the nearby shopping strip. Thanks for the hide, amryall, glad you didn't grow up in the pub.
