Unfortunately a DNF here today, hopefully can be rectified when the cache is replaced TFTC
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.

We got pretty close to cache.... Cache was just under the tree waiting for geocachers.
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

Out and about with B12, late logging however have back dates so as to report correctly
Came down to watch the Avon decent. Decided to grab this cache. Was handy to have the co with us but didn't need help. Beautiful spot. Tftc.
Quick grab on the way back from Avon a walk at night. Nice hand painted cache. Tftc
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

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.

Thanks for putting this cache here. It is the first one we found and the kids love it! Well done!!!
In the area for geodaughters hockey game so decided to do some hunting. After a nice stroll it was a quick find. Unfortunately couldn't sign logbook as didn't have a pen on us and none in the cache.
Checked this cache while looking for avon a walk at night cache added some more goodies cache is still in good shape
Chismrz thanks to your son for taking the wolf spider away and making the cache safe for others and im very sorry that happened must of been very frightening
Nice cache. My son and I had a good day out in Northam this day. We left an army helicopter (very fitting) and he also left with a wolf spider clinging to his back a very brave 6yo.
Tftc, didn't use the waypoint car park and there was a fence in the way, but still a fairly easy find
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 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 We made sure to cover the prize, before heading off in search of the next cache.

Great cache but found not hidden and lid not done up. No trackable found. Took green rubber tweetie. Left a carabina. SL TFTC
Good to see a large cache. Stood in a bull ants nest and ended up finding ants an hour later still. Ouch. Definitely a memorable cache for me! Found with the Fabulous Panda. TFTC
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. 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.
I like it
Another one of the list

Nice to see such a big container here. Nobody else out on the track and it was a quick find. River looking very sad currently.
Thanks hobbits123

Slip sliding on the road here. Quiet spot. Took Alvin to continue his travels. Left necklace. 4x4 access road only
After finding the right parking spot Me&B and I took the short walk to the cache.
Nice big cache for easy find. Left a trackable (GV4PX7)

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.

A quick find with iluvtrekking as we headed to York for the weekend. Thanks hobbits123
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.
Tfth what a great one very tricky and very creative took a bit to find good camo. Bell n bazley
Combined find with Family Steiner for this one. And under attack by ants too!!
6th successful find today

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
Nice little walk on a crisp Autumn afternoon. Easy to find, given all the trampled vegetation. Good to see a decent ammo box with lots of room. T4TC!
Out for a morning cache and coffee with Team M-B. Thanks for the nice walk and the hide
Quick find by Geo-daughter, who gleefully swapped the Queen Clarion toy for a 'Riskin it' path tag (number 0292219)... TFTC
