Sorry guys this one needs to be totally replaced. If the space is still available we may be able to do something better in the future.

Wow, took us while, gps was driving us nuts... Lid missing, needs a little tlc

Packet wet.
Exposed container.

Difficult to find as it's probably damaged.

Difficult to find. Needs some maintenance as the rain has attacked it.

Making my way back north and thought this looks like a nice bunch of caches. Was really surprised by the amount of effort gone into these. Excellent.

I am not sure how this one used to look. Looks like it may be missing some bits. Found the log on the ground and placed it back in, but I don't think it will hold for long. TFTC Moneybox.

Thanks for the hide Moneybox. Found this in position but looks like it's camo is broken off. Log book was water damaged so I replaced it with a new sheet of paper.

Found it but part missing and a little soggy

cool hide, out getting all in this part of Tuart Forest TFTC

The cache is looking a little worse for wear. We pleased to log the find after searching some wrong locations first. Thanks Moneybox.

The GPS had us busy conducting every increasing circles as we attempted to zero in on this one. As stated earlier, the stopper seal is damaged and the whole cache could benefit from some CO TLC.
Thanks for the cache Moneybox

Find 12 of 16 after the WA Goes Big 2015 weekend.

Geodad went on ahead and found this hanging by a bit of a rubbery thread so he put it back together as well as he could for the others to find, which they did. It might need fixing properly at some point.

TFTC Moneybox!

Heading home after the event and doing a few caches with ~Tango~ and Mistraluna on the way.

Found this cache without problems.

Thanks Moneybox for the cache.

Log too wet to write on , needs replacing
TFTC

found it on the ground but undamaged. put back in its place for the next hunter TFTC

Bit off course but found!

Kyzabra, AlliedOz and I had planned a trip down this way as a lead up to the WA Goes Big Event. This cache was on the list of our to-do's! We were collecting caches on the way home today.

Found this one after a short search . Nice camo on this one too

Moneybox - jinta29 found your cache Drove Us Nuts on 14/02/2015 1:41 pm. This is my find #2881 and find #20 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Jinta29, AlliedOZ, and I had planned a couple of days down south for some time now. A bit of planning for WA GOES BIG, and a lot of caching as well.

Day 2 and we are continuing our expedition.
Our GPSs disagreed initially but mine settled on a likely spit and soon enough I found the prize.

I'm Looking forward to meeting other geocachers at WA GOES BIG IN 2015, in Busselton.

Nuts lots of nuts and Roos tftc

Tftc discovered by master3 . Ver cute

Didn't need repair, just another nut attached which we've done. All good.

Down in Peppermint Grove Beach for the week and found time for a walk through the forest. Great place to find a cache or 10.
I could only find one. Not sure what's happened to the other one, sorry Drovers.
Thanks Moneybox.

Can't open treasure box. It needs some TLC.

I forgot to log this one on my phone! Thank you

Well named cache. Sadly they can't all be favourites as we don't have enough left

Lost the nut but great job. GeoDad & GeoDaughter went out caching once she got home from school. We've been meaning to come back for a while to complete this area & today we're on that mission now we've got better access!
TFTC

This cache needs repairing.

We were looking at the wrong tree for far too long. We find it eventually but the log book was wet so we put in a new one. tftc

Quick find. Also found lots of minibeasts. TFTC!!

Tftc found on the way back from the skate park meet up event

took awhile but i got it

Decided to head down to busselton with the geohubby for a few days of caching. we picked up a few caches in bunbury then we headed to capel to pick up all the caches we missed the last time we were there. Picked up a few caches in busselton but we will have to get the rest tomorrow as we ran out of day light. Not a bad day we had 43 finds and no DNFS.
Quick find here as the nut was broken and I didnt have any glue to repair it but the container is still working well TFTC Moneybox

Thx Moneybox. Haven't seen one like this before. Cool.

We took an afternoon drive in the Tuart forest and found some fantastic caches.
Thanks Moneybox.

Will need repairing.
Arrived and found the nuts to have dropped.....
Log was also drenched.
Had nothing on me to repair/help.
TFTC

My little girl found this one, she was so proud of herself.

Went off on my own to find this one. Then I got lost & didn't know where I'd left my bike. Ended up going around in a big circle until S'n'N found me. We finally found my bike

Unfortunately it looks like that the magnet is a bit strong and a previous cacher has broken the nut off the cache.

Nice one!

Nice one!

Tiny one

Log was still dry but outside of bag wet so must have leak in actual cache since it's broken.but still liked the idea of it. And beautiful time of day for this walk. Tftc

Went and replaced the log in this one and it definitely is in need of some maintenance. Needs to be resealed but we didn't have anything we could use to do this

It had water in it and log saturated so I brought log home if you want it.

Hopefully you aren't too far away

Hi Moneybox
The cache is broken - we picked up the top part and tucked it in close to cache.
Log is wet. We tried to absorb all the moisture with a tissue.

Number 11 for today.
TFTC, Moneybox.

GPS was sending me round and round in a circles and had to give up to get back to the football to pick up Geohubby and Geoson. Last one to collect in the forest so wasn't happy to give up, but will be back

Back down this way again. The way things are going I'll be classed as a 'local' shortly as been here often enough and still have a few more trips down for the last few

I always work out which one I'm going to do before I leave home so it's funny driving within metres of other ones that I haven't done yet just to get to the chosen one.
At least will know where to go at a later date

This one took way longer to find than it should have but gps was sending me around in a circle before it settled down and then it was my fault for not spying the cache when I should have

A clever one

There was water inside the case so the good old flannie shirt came in handy. Log was wet too but I just managed to put my initials on it and tried to dry it a bit.

After duties done then time to follow the tracks out

TFTC Moneybox.

I'll try and remember to take a new log down with me and/or a bag when I do one of the others nearby if you still arent home

TFTC found cache on the ground so replaced it in its rightfull place

Crazy man.TFTH

well done tftc

Headed off into the tuart forest to collect this new series. After letting our tyres down, we traversed the tracks making drive-by of all the finds. Another clever hide, geo-hubby found it by accident when we put his hand right on it. Thanks Moneybox.

Thanks. Another very clever, easy find.

After the Capel Event last weekend, I knew geobuddy Mark would be keen to head down and find the new Moneybox caches that had been published. Stopped to grab a few quick ones on the way down, but we didn't waste too much time - had a bigfoot or two to find. The Ford Focus handled the softer sand in the forest beautifully, though we did stop and stretch our legs out in the middle of big foots territory. Twas near here that we found the evidence of just how creative Mr and Mrs Moneybox have been and what an energetic "Lifestyle" they have, especially out here in the forest. The CO's will understand what we are referring to. Thanks Moneybox

An easy find on an afternoon out caching with Pood and Barjgods

This was our fourth day in WA after picking up our camper van at 1400 Wednesday. and picking up my daughter "Doscrapbooking"at 0100 Thursday morning at the International Airport.

We visited my sister , who is in a nursing home at Karrinup first up Thursday morning, and then cache our way to Capel for Moneybox's event today.

After the event Saturday, with a whole lot of new caches released , everybody headed for Tuart Forest, This was our next find (lost count)
We parked the camper at the entrence to the forest, and walked to the cache, didn't want to get stuck on the sandy tracks. When I got back to the camper, Dianne was already there, talking to SWB Archer who had found a few of the new ones, as he didn't have a smart phone, he was chasing them all over the place. It was also getting very dark.
He invited us [*D] to go with him to find the rest [^] that we hadn't found, and to help him with the ones [^]that he hadn't found, a very successful venture for all concerned.

I do love this type of cache, put my hand right on it. I can only emagine the work that went into creating the cache container.

The cache is

Yay a Great FTF
A nutsy story TFTC

Hello from Sweden and Queensland
Found with Sweet-Sour on our WA trip.
Tftc

Visiting Capel for the fabulous Capel Caching “C”apers event today.

When the event finished, we noticed that there were a heap of new caches. So we headed out hoping to make a FTF or 2.

We got to this one to find we were 2TF. Nice work on the cache.
