I was in the area and I decided to find a couple of cache's. I had solved these puzzles a few months ago. I decided on a route to take and set off. This cache was the third closest after parking the car close by. There was a clear path to GZ where I made a quick find. It was a nice day to be out caching all these cache's were nice and easy finds.

.K.B., I found your cache 'Oz Mega 2014 #11' today. It was the sixth of eleven finds (and I only had one DNF). The cache was found in good condition, and so I signed the log book and replaced it as I found it. This cache brings my total count to 261. Thanks for the cache. Very cool design.

This series has been great generally as far as parking has been concerned, and this one was no exception, Muggle Hubby did the retrieval of the cache here, another with very accurate coordinates.
 
18-Jul-15
Thank you! Recently discovered this series, so I thought I go out and do them before they disappear. Found all but two.

Nice hiding spot! This was my third find out of 6 of this series this afternoon during my spare hour around Nedlands/Dalkeith. The log is a little bit damp. Thank you for the cache .K.B.
 
25-Apr-15
After a scramble to GZ, the cache was hand quickly. Thanks again .K.B for the puzzle.
 
12-Apr-15
I was thinking of denying AusLoron's claim that I was keen to climb behind a stump located next to wet trees, but she's right, it's true, I confess. The things I am willing to do to find a geocache... Cheers
 
12-Apr-15
Another find by Elrin, eager to climb up a damp incline and crouch behind a soggy stump. Thank goodness for that, as I only made it about halfway to the stump before I nearly tripped over myself and went back down to the path before I stacked it in front of the couple coming down the path.
 
31-Jan-15
Found on an early morning bike ride. I am very keen to complete all remaining caches in this series as I see they're soon to be archived. This was a quick find, behind the only stump in this location. As with one of the other caches I found this morning, I needed to remain out of sight of the triathletes across the road. Thanks for this series of caches .K.B.
 
22-Jan-15
I was out and about on an early morning caching run and this one was on the list.

Another nice easy find here and I am pleased that most of these caches are away from muggly eyes Big Grin

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

Registrations are now open - log your 'Will Attend' at GC5GR5X

.K.B. - jinta29 found your cache Oz Mega 2014 #11 on 22/01/2015 5:52 am. This is my find #2740 and find #4 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!
 
18-Dec-14
During my work and travel year in Australia I'm trying to solve my 365 days of caching challenge. Having a moving home zone should make this definitely way easier.

Today I planned to get the Oz Mega 2014 series, before it decays even more and probably gets archived. Most of the caches of the series were found and some of the tradis around as well.

TFTC and greetings from Germany
 
17-Dec-14
Found on a big geoday with the sis and the geokids TFTC Smile aka dougfam
 
14-Dec-14
I had the whole morning to myself and what better way to spend it than going for a bike ride and picking up a few caches. TFTC.
 
13-Dec-14
Yes, like others I've had these worked out for a while now... thought i'd better find them before the archive, time to go searching...

TFTC K.B.
 
23-Nov-14
Another one found with matey88 on a gorgeous day. TFTC!
 
02-Nov-14
find 10/20 for today. made a mad dash and spent the day with the geokiddies trying to bump this series out before archiving. tfts. with teagzd97
 
30-Oct-14
Find 12 of 21 in the Oz Mega 2014 series.
Saw the warnings about the series being archived so we sprung into action with a flurry of puzzle printing and solving so that we would be ready for our bike ride around the area today. Spent a couple of hours on lovely quiet roads and in quiet parks steadily working through the series, all quick finds apart from one DNF. An excellent series, thanks for all the caches .K.B.
 
25-Oct-14
I've decided to visit this area and to find all caches in this series. I managed it and enjoyed it very much. Thank you for the caches and greetings from Slovakia.
 
12-Oct-14
Found on a caching afternoon with jakl-B-hide and Pinkpanthr.
 
12-Oct-14
What a tantalising series ... And what a relief to have finally solved them all! Thanks for the fun! We had a fun family outing to find this series broken for many a play and cuppa and cake break.

Family find ...log sheet full, but we did manage to squeeze in our names
 
11-Oct-14
In Perth for a few days for a wedding, today was the main time I could find a few caches.
I had solved some of these at home and set out to explore.

05-Oct-14
An easy find thanks KB.
 
01-Oct-14
Nice quick one. Beautiful look at the Perth skyline at night from here!
 
03-Sep-14
Out with wifey and the geodog today for this series and it was a good find by wifey in an area we all never knew it existed.

It will although need a new log as it's completely full. TFTC Smile
 
02-Sep-14
Half of the FFLL team is out of Canberra traveling for work this week. We solved this series before she left Canberra in the hope of getting a ferw. After completing her presentations for the day, she headed out with a muggle friend who helped with the finds.

TFTC and for placing this series .K.B.
 
31-Aug-14
Out and about to collect a few more of this series today. Most were an easy find but there were 1 or 2 that were a little more tricky. TFTC - Most logs are wet and or full and need replacing
 
30-Aug-14
TFTC! Up to Perth for a weekend with friends and family, with a small side stop to attend the event in Sorrento to claim the last of my 7SOA. Thanks
 
30-Aug-14
Solved all the puzzles for the Oz Mega series a while ago and had the opportunity today to see how many I could track down. Manged to have ago at all 23 plus a couple of others, ended up with two DNF's on the series and one not attempted due to muggle activity.

Most were fairly straight forward finds with one or two tricky ones thrown in. All the co-ords seemed to be spot on, thanks for putting the series together KB, I visited a lot of great spots that I didn't know existed.

A quick find here but the log is full, manged to find a spot to sign.

Would have spent quite a bit of time on searching if there wasn't a hint. Good hide Smile TFTC.
 
10-Aug-14
Not too hard to find according to the hint, heap of ants around. tftc
 
10-Aug-14
Out with the kids making most of a beautiful day I had solved some of these mystery caches when they were first released, but last night I decided it was time to knock them off.

One more before we will have to call it a day darn it.

Nice area, thanks for the cache K.B.

thought we would take advantage of the lovely weather today and finish this series tftc
 
25-Jul-14
We parked the car and went for a nice stroll along the river.
 
11-Jul-14
I had the day off to attending a family wedding, so I had a few spare hours to go for a walk along the river and find some caches that have been on my hit list for a while. A perfect morning for some geocaching. After looking at the hint it could be in only one place. I didn't know this path was here and I should explore it one day. TFTC kb
 
23-Jun-14
No mistaking where this one was going to be, I had GZ picked on approach. A quick glance around, no-one near, I swooped on GZ and retrieved the container from under the camo... [^] Tucked nicely out the way, I added my name to the log while keeping an eye to my right, then tucked it back and moved on pronto... Wink

Cheers .K.B.

TFTC. Log to follow
 
11-Jun-14
There seem to be quite a lot of paths along here, heading upwards. I found the coordinates a little bit out here, but with the hint it was a quick find in the only place it could be! Thanks for the cache and the series .K.B.!
 
08-Jun-14
Sad to say that despite all early good intentions, life changes interfered and I was unable to make it to the Mega this year. However all these puzzles to add to the puzzle stats is most welcome. I attempted them all, and found most, with 1 unable to get to because it was surrounded by muggles, and 4 unable to be found.
The rain held off and despite all my finds being micros, they were mostly easy finds, most were found with wonderful views, beaches and parklands along the magnificent Swan River. A most rewarding afternoon of sightseeing. Many thanks, K.B.
 
07-Jun-14
Had a free day as Mrs K was busy doing reports so decided a trip to Perth was in order to attend one of the WWFM events and then do the OZ Mega series and a few others in the area along the way.
I solved all the puzzles before we went to the Mega so I thought it was about time to get these done Wink
In the end I ran out of time so didn't get them all done so will have to find another free day soon.

Thanks for the cache .K.B. [^]

 
28-May-14
Final day in Perth today and managed to get away early from 'work' to grab the rest of this series. Collected them one by one driving along and then was still able to get to the airport in time. Great little puzzle and nice area. Thanx for the series.
 
24-May-14
I solved the puzzles for these caches soon after they were published and they've been on the radar ever since. After chatting to CO at Chwiliwr's event yesterday, I decided that today would be the day, so I did these and a few traditionals in the area with only one DNF on this series and one other DNF for the day, with 31 finds.

Quick find here after short uphill walk. Signed the log and chased the bag after it blew away. Caught it before it went too far. Thanks for the hide .K.B.
 
19-May-14
Out for an evening of caching with Kyzabra and thought we'd make a start on the arrow. It was a nice evening and we decided to walk and get through as many as possible. Unfortunately we couldn't grab them all so the rest will be for another evening. Thanks for the caches and apologies for the copy and paste logs :-/
 
14-May-14
I had solved these puzzles some time ago and tonight headed out with J&J_45 to make a start on the series.
We had a nice walk along the river grabbing a good number of the series and a few other nearby.
Thankls for putting this geo-art together KB.
We will return to complete our arrow.
 
11-May-14
Thank you
 
25-Apr-14
Attend the dawn service this morning and decided to do some geocaching in the area while waiting to go to work at 12 noon, I work out the puzzle earlier in the week to do today, this one I drove in the wrong direction and had to circle the field before parking close by...It was a quick find once I worked out the closes parking spot to GZ,....TFTC
 
23-Apr-14
Rode up the path as the description said, for a quick find.

Thanks .K.B. ...enjoyable series.
 
20-Apr-14
Great Series! Solved the puzzle(s) yesterday and popped out this morning to bag the one's that didn't have muggles nearby. What a beautiful day! Thanks for the caches.
 
13-Apr-14
Seeing we (BettyBoo3747 and I) aren't going to make it to the Mega (working Easter!) we drove around this series and added to our puzzle collection. Grab a few others on the way.
We had varied fortunes on a sunny Sunday - no parking fees and easy parking, but a couple of spots muggled out.
Up the path, and there it was, as advertised!
Have you ever considered giving up the lollies and eating fruit instead? Smile
Thanks, Robmc.

# 6064. Day 2 of our caching foray around Perth. A beautiful Sunday morning and so many people out and about enjoying the great outdoors. Our aim this morning was to do the Oz Mega Series of 23 that we solved whilst waiting to board the ferry on Rottnest Island a couple of days ago. We also hoped to find some others that appeared on the radar as we drove around.

A short walk from where we left the car and we soon had the cache in hand - now off to the next one (where unfortunately, we were muggled out and could not attempt).

Thanks .K.B.
 
04-Apr-14
Another 'on the way home' detour to finish off this small cluster. All quickly found with very little muggle-ference. SL TFTC
 
02-Apr-14
The geohubby worked all the co-ords out on monday night so we decided we would head out this morning and pick them all up.
All the caches were found without problems as the hints gave a great description of where to look and find them all.
We enjoyed doing the series and it only took us about 3 hours to complete and in that time we even stopped for a coffee break at the tea rooms near one of the caches. TFTC .K.B.
 
30-Mar-14
Made an early start today, hoping to find all the Oz Mega 2014 series before heading up into the hills for the Earthcache Event. This was the eleventh stop for the day. Quick find. Thanks .K.B.
 
28-Mar-14
Out with Dr.ibl and N Delfos for a late night caching run in Dalkeith to pick up the Oz mega Puzzle caches we did 22 puzzle caches and a couple of traditionals
Only Puzzle cache we couldn't do was 10 as there were people fishing 3 mts both times we went past and this was 1 am

Thanks for some great hides K.B

TFTC
 
26-Mar-14
We spotted this series last night and as we will need the practice before heading to the OzMega quickly attempted the puzzles and acquired some promising data. We attempted 23 caches today without any DNF's. This is typical of KB's caches. Coordinates are always good and the cache placed with the intention that it be found an enjoyable experience. Good job KB. Please excuse the copy and paste logs.
Thanks for the series KB
 
25-Mar-14
I headed out to the area this morning with Skippy46 to do this series, after seeing it on a facebook post.
Lucky for me she had completed all the puzzles.

We had a very successful day with 21 finds. All were easily found and in great condition.

Thanks for the cache K.B.
 
25-Mar-14
Parked close to the path and then it wasn't long before we had the cache in hand.

Found on a day out caching & bike riding with my family (jasenjanine)... TFTC .K.B. Big Grin
 
23-Mar-14
It was a beautiful day to head out with the kids for some bike riding, & of course to find some caches along the way Smile Another of the "already solved" puzzles was next, we are enjoying our ride along the foreshore, before making a slight deviation. DangerMouse09 was already up the hill when he realised I had stopped to grab the prize [;)

TFTC .K.B. Big Grin The kids thought GZ was a great spot for a slippery slide & wanted to climb up & down... After getting them to clean up there mess, we moved along to the next Surprised

23-Mar-14
Out in around the Swan to collect some of the OZ Mega series and a couple of new caches. First went to the wrong stump and got some wounds from the sharp palm leaves. Then checked out the easier spot, and success! TFTH
 
21-Mar-14
A quick find thanks to the description and near to where I parked. TFTC
 
20-Mar-14
Mrs richlink was on a lightening trip to Perth to attend an appointment so we decided to team up to grab some caches before she headed off home. We had solved the first few in this series previously but solved the newly published ones on the run.
Thanks .K.B. for a group of sensible puzzle caches which didn’t hurt the brain and hides which could be retrieved easily with out alerting the thousands of Muggles who enjoy the river after work.
 
20-Mar-14
Had an unexpected quick trip to Perth for an appointment in Nedlands so contacted iluvtrekking to join me to grab some of this new series. Some puzzles had already been solved but some were published while heading to Perth so we were plugging in new co-ords for the later ones while doing the rounds. Looks like we were hot of the tail of SpatialRiq but didn't catch up with him. Thanks KB for a neat series. The others to come will have to wait for a future trip.

Published

Woohoo *FTF* @ 3:55pm.

After solving I found this to be a few km's away, and thankfully in a quieter location. Ample parking within metres of the cache and I had this one signed and returned in no time.

And again, it was then back to the geomobile and solving the next! TFTC.
