Hi Hobbits123, I was walking past this spot to replace my missing Geocache and I remembered seeing a few DNF logs coming through on this one.
Having previously found it I knew what I was looking for and i'm sorry to say it looks like your cache is now gone. Interestingly as my cache in the same area was also taken.

An awesome day out in Northam to explore the town and find some caches.
Parked at the sport fields and walked in. Unfortunately we could find the cache, the flood must have taken it.

TFTC! Had a day out caching with Cravo10 to collect some of the new Toodyay Rd caches, before exploring the Toodyay township and then continuing on our journey to Northam where we picked up a couple of caches we haven't managed to get to on recent visits including an archived cache at the information bay just outside of town which was very well found by Bristag (read the associated logs - don't think it will ever go missing again!!) after completing the majority of our chores in Northam we continued on towards wundowie where we had a couple of caches we were desperate to find wundowie wonderland, which was quite amazing when you linked what we saw in person and what was on the aerial maps on the iPhone, simply amazing. Maybe jasenjanine can organise a nice event for us all go see the masterpiece!!

Then we went and tried for the highly rated BBF the drawer field puzzle cache by jasenjanine who never disappoint with their nicely constructed caches! Won't say much on here but it's well worth a look, leave yourself an hour to get it and you only need one or two fingers, no force required. Fav point for that one!

Great day out with only a dozen ish finds, but happy to add to the stats. Thanks to the local COs

Today was a huge day. 14 hours, 625km, and 27 finds.
We almost missed this one but noticed it As we were doing the multi.

This trip out had been a long time in the planning.
Krabiboy and I had hatched a plan and probably changed it about 10 times. dallyho joined us, final plans were set, and off we went

hobbits123 - Kyzabra found your cache Avon A Walk . The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!
 
05-Aug-16
Kyzabra and I have had our eyes on this part of the Wheatbelt for a few months. We were joined by Dallyho and today was the day to head out and make a weekend of it.

We left at 4.30am on Friday and headed off to the northern wheatbelt.

We covered over 600km today, clocking up 29 finds, including 5 archived caches.

We were on the hunt for a nearby cache so thought we should stop to grab this one. Nice container here, we appreciated the artwork on the container.

With school holidays upon us, I headed to Northam to find a few caches with the kids... This cache was one we found on our travels Smile It was a hot day, so thankfully we found a nice shady spot to park only 100m from the cache... We kept our eyes out for any slithering reptiles & luckily none were spotted! A quick find was made by Master 4, as the box was not covered very well.

TFTC hobbits Big Grin We made sure to cover the prize, before heading off in search of the next cache.

Being in the area this looked to have a good DT rating that was not too far away. In fact we managed to drive within about 40m of GZ. A quick search and nice to find an ammo can. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC.

Second day of my loop through the wheatbelt. Found this one at 17:50 today. I wonder how many others climbed the fence and pushed through the weeds only to find the track near the hide. Red Face TNLNSL TFTC

[:(!] Borrowed the geoson-inlaw geobike and went for a bike ride to pick up some caches along the way and this was one of them, on arrival at GZ the cache was located and it was quickly in hand.

In town for the event today and thought we pick up this one on the way home. After some 4WDriving we decided this is not the right parking spot so back through the mud and puddles to the right one, from there it was a nice easy stroll to GZ.

We found the cache with richlink on a road trip to York. I took us more time to find how to get to GZ than it did to find the cache once there. Thanks hobbits123.

Find #9 of 16 for the day. Left the geocar some way away as the track looked a little damp for my people-mover to negotiate. Team Naz had caught up to us at this stage (we'd stopped to look at some horses nearby) and together we jumped the fence and headed to the cache (is there an easier way?) Unfortunately I disturbed an ants nest as I climbed over and got some very very nasty and angry ants in my socks and shoes. By the time I got to GZ, the ants were well up into my jeans, biting with all their might, and heading up to a place where no ant should ever go! If it weren't for Team Naz's presence, I would have whipped my clothes off then and there to get the buggers off. Love an ammo tin. Retrieved TB, signed lof and got the @#$% out of there! TFTC Very Happy
