As per all other logs not found. Hiding holes in tree are full of water as well
I checked on this today and it's definitely missing from its hidey holes. Maintenance required.
Catching up on past finds, so a bit late on doing the online logs .
This was a DNF for me as well.

Great find. Tricky one as dexter the monkey doesnt live there anymore. Snuggle container in itself by the tree all in all a good find.
Spotted as soon as I rocked up as camo had come off. I've covered it with a little bark so it doesn't get muggled. Hope that's ok. TFTC.
With school holidays upon us I chose to take the kids riding around this area to find a cache or two! After packing up our bikes we made our way here for a picnic lunch before finding the cache
Thanks JD2003 Cache was a quick find... If only it was that quick to get the kids off the playground

Headed up NOR today with Jinta29 with the prinary goal of collecting as many of our solved puzzles as we could.
One of the traditionals we decided to detour for. Lucky I read the hint or one of us probably would have wasted some time.
I'm Looking forward to meeting other geocachers at WA GOES BIG IN 2015, in Busselton.

Kyzabra and I had a mission to make a foray into this part of town with the main aim of grabbing solved puzzles and multis. Of course there would be the odd traditional thrown in for good measure.
A nice quick find here after adjusting our elevation

Great little find... Very easy and kid suitable -we signed the log! Watch out for spiders!
So many cobwebs.... Those spiders really love Dexter. No probs though - just dusted them off and signed the log. Cheers
Oh dexter, you've been on my radar for a while now! Now get off it - I've found you! TFTC
Neat little hide. I was stalled by a muggle asking me for a quote as I parked work car infront of gz. TFTC
Took me more time than it should have one this one...instinct took logic down the wrong path!
Took a photograph. Left a footprint

Cache is missing from original hiding spot. CO doesn't seem to have logged on since their initial couple of weeks of caching. A temporary replacement has been placed in an equally as sneaky spot in the tree.
No luck here for me. Looked high and low.
After reading the first half of the hint I even climbed up the tree... Then read the second part on the top and climbed down...
Maybe would worth a check.

Quick find once at GZ just on dusk. Easily spotted as the covering that used to cover the cache was on the ground. Replace as best I could so hopefully will stay well hidden. TFTC.
TFTC! Quick find whilst out with JoshyT07 on a georun thru inglewood and surrounds
Love Paul Frank!!
My kids call him monkey man cos he looks like the offspring of a human and a monkey!!
Thanks for cache

Fun for the kids! Thankyou though we saw it from a few metres away as the camouflage is in pieces and the box is so bright. Swapped some loot .thankyou
After DNFing on this cache when trying for FTF I had been watching it since then, and saw the coordinate change. Today I had the chance to come back and fix up that frowny face. It still took a bit of searching!
The camo fell to pieces when I touched it, and I tried to put it back together as best as possible, but it may need some fixing/glue-ing.
Thanks for the cache JD2003!

Our new geofriend is getting the hang of this and found this one. They were hoping to have to climb the tree but no such luck. Thanks
Out early before this morning doing a caching before work , while enjoying the variety of hides in the area...TFTC
Cute container that was very nicely concealed. Found with iluvtrekking after a couple laps of the feature. Thanks JD2003.

Out on a day of caching with skippy 46. We had quite a successful day with 23 finds in about 5 hours and most caches were found quite quickly. We used ChrisRG co-ords but it still took a few minutes of searching to find the cute monkey tin TFTC JD2003
Thought it had been muggled at first and was just about to give up when I found it.
Loved the container and I think you did a great job on your first cache.

I read the logs last night and saw that the coords were a bit out so I avoided the obvious place and moved to the next obvious one. It was a quick find as the geocache was lying open on the ground with the contents scattered. I don't think anything has gone missing, log book and pen are still there along with a small eraser. I signed the log and put it all back together (I like the tin) and put it back where I think it may have been originally. It may pay to keep an eye on this one in case it gets muggled again.
My Coords for the cache were S31 54.622 E115 52.662

I found this cache on the weekend but have been holding off logging the find until I could provide a suggested coordinate. When I archived a nearby cache, I hid a bison high in the exact tree you have hidden in. My coordinate was very similar to that suggested in ChrisRG's log. I logged your cute monkey tin and removed my bison in the same visit. Great to have another cache so close to home. Thanks for the hide JD2003.
Another day out with Mistraluna and the Better Half caching.
Found the cache without problems once we read the listing and worked out where GZ was supposed to be.
Thanks JD2003 for the cache.

Another epic day of caching, continuing on from where I left off last weekend. The cache wasn't found at the listed coordinates, instead we read previous logs and searched some distance away. Sneaky hide. Thanks JD2003
First not to find
My GPS directed me to the large tree in the center of the park, by the bench seat. I searched high and low, but didn't find the tin.
I was carefully watched by 7 magpies, so maybe they have snaffled the cache as a prize for their nest...

*FTF* at 7.40pm. Cute container - we have one of these caches ourselves! I found the coords to be approx. 15m out and suggest CO recalculate these. My GPS suggested GZ was at S 31 54.618 E 115 52.659. TFTC
