CKC, we headed this way early this afternoon and looked forward to a nice stroll. As it happens, we wished that our shirts were a bit more robust as they took a bit of hammering bashing through the bush. Thanks for setting this baby up. Alls in good shape here.
Found, logged and placed back thanks for the find will definitely bring my niece for this one
Cache not orange but is in a good place, trees with enough gap to crawl through.
Very much enjoyed.
Cache in good condition.
This is my 3903 find.
Thank you kylestell for placing and maintaining this cache.
Geology rocks but Geography is where it’s at!
(I’m not a geologist I just like puns)

Took a few minutes & we got sticks in our faces, but happy to say Geohusband found it! Redrobbin25 was also with us. Tftc
After work I went for two caches before to drive home. I settled on this area noting a several suitable cache options. After my previous experience I slowed down before getting off the road - much smoother.
I began the walk in with this cache as my first target. As I got near the GPSr pointed into the bush that signs warn not to enter. Given the number of previous cachers trampling the area and ordinance would likely have shown itself by now.
The bush was a little thick, plus some cuttings being dumped just into the bush made it an interesting experience with plenty of stabbing sticks. At GZ I looked around and spotted a couple of likely places. The cache was at the second of those I checked.

Maybe a GPS problem as this didn't look like the right place about 20m off the track?
I sure approached this one from the wrong direction. 200m north through the tall grassy planes and then 200 metres west through the scrubby bush. TFTC
Continuing a lovely walk around the tracks this morning picking up some smileys and this is one I found nicely tucked away. Log signed and the cache replaced as found. A fav from me for the series and I enjoy a bit of a bush bash too.
Out for a bit of geocaching on what turned out to be a lovely and cool Summers Day.
Took a little while to locate this one. Glad to finally get a smiley here.

Determined to get to the 1000 find milestone I headed out today to this series to help close the gap.
Well that one took me a while. No longer orange container, now grey. Lots of sticks in faces
Thanks for the hide kylestell

Another one bites the dust whilst the mozzies bite me lol. Log signed and cache placed back in its hide. Thanks kylestell for this one
Found on a early morning walk through the area towards the train series. An easy find for Geo-Rabbit who sniffed this little fella out in no time. TN, LN SL Replaced as found ready for the next geo-adventurers.
Thanks goes to the CO, Kylestell for the cache and foe bringing us to this location.

Found it. TFTC kylestell. Had a Visa and a day pass so I crossed the boarder with my supplies, and ventured into the deep dark depths of the unknown. The challenge for me today was the Railway Series and the series round Lake Walyungup. There were a few close by like this one that I just couldn't resist the challenge for a smiley. Happy to say all completed, with no DNF's, although there was a few times I was tempted to move on but persistence prevailed. I returned with a bucket full of smiley's on this perfect day for geocaching.
Out on the bike today to tackle some caches along the train line. Had a total of 55 finds and 0 DNFs. All caches were replaced as found. Bobtail was right near this one TFTC

A minor amount of bush bashing required through wet bushes. The cache has taken in a bit if water and the log is wet. Tried to ensure it was protected and put back as found.
Cache was full of water but the log was dry in the bag. A quick find here. TFTC kylestell
Walked the loop north of Safety Bay Rd around the park and found 8 traditional caches from 8 attempts. One of those days where the coats and jumpers come off and on with showers and rays of sunshine.

Scratchy shrubs on the way in and on the way out but cache was easy enough to locate. Cache lid hinge broken but the container still seals OK.
Found while out and about walking in the area.
TFTC kylestell this is find # 7785 for us.

Out for a walk with the geo kids on this lovely winters morning to pick up some caches in our local area that we had been saving for “another day”. Quick find and added some loot to the cache. Tftc
Found on a beautiful afternoon out with geobaby and geohubby, May need an all terrain pram lol

Out for a family walk and decided to pick up a few caches. Great day for it and always enjoy walking in this area. The kids were eager today and spotting this one took a little while but finally got it.
Out and about with Rona308, picking up some caches, before our drinking session starts, tftc sl tnln.
We could see needles around the area and didn't venture too far with the kids, probably none in that far as the ones we saw where near the front gate and we left.
First for the day...
TFTC.
Great way to relax after a week of work..
1 of 6 for today..
Kangaroo tracks leading from the cache..

Last cache of day! And took a TB. TFTC and the walk!
Lid broken. Put it back as best we could be likely to need maintenance before winter.

One more cache before heading home. Easy find after a bit of bush bashing. Lid is Busted on this one so hope it survives winter. Got attacked by an inch-long bull ant coming back from this one! TFTC
Wish my kids were here to cache with me but they're back in Sweden. they would have found this one faster than me.
Today I took off for a big ride around Lake Cooloongup to burn some calories and off course get a lot of caches. Unlike a horrible day of caching a few days ago where I found two and the other 6 were not there or DNF's, today I got 27 and no DNF's, lots of regulars and small sizes. Really interesting caching day, but the humidity after last nights rain made it a very sweaty ride. Thank god the clouds were out still.
Today nearly all caches were bush caches and unlike Sweden, I had to keep reminding myself not to put my hands and fingers into holes, or under things etc etc, and make lots of noise when I'm walking.
No snakes spotted yet but there were a lot of spiders.
Sorry about the copy logs and thanks to all CO's for placing these caches .
All caches logged today were dated 3-3-2017 but I just realised it's the 2nd of march.

Found at 4:34:00 PM.
So I dragged my son away from his mates and made him come caching with me. He was alright with that as apparently it was upping his distance walked so that he could hatch his eggs in the pocket monster game!
Ahh, an easy find as the container really stands out. As others have said, the latches are broken but the cache was dry when we were there signing the log
Thanks for the cache kylestell, it was cache number 2167 for me and was number 4 in my run of 6 for today's geocaching effort.
Cheers

The box catch broke off as we closed it so we've weighed it down with a branch. May need to be replaced
TFTC! Spent the day out with Cravo10 between anketell road in mandogalup and baldivis further south cleaning up a bunch of caches that have been missed or published since our last visit to the area, we had a pretty good day out cleaning up a large number of caches and small series that have been in the to do list for far too long.
After having phone problems for a couple of weeks, switching to Samsung after some poor product service from Apple and then switching back to iPhone after having a number of issues completing my geocaching with the Samsung and the standard app, which is completely useless.
Now being on cachly is great it's like the old paid app, a few minor tweaks and it will be there!! One day the boys might get me to finally convert to geosphere!
We started the day grabbing a
Number of caches around the Kwinana loop trail (KLT), which was awesome as we haven't seen something like that in suburbia for a while, we then headed to Wellard where we picked up a number of park and grabs along with a few walks.
We then headed further south to complete the caches for kids trail and then finally back to anketell road to complete another leg of the CPS trail (been too long between drinks), which was a nice walk and a longer walk back to the final!
All caches were found in good condition, we enjoyed the variety today with a couple of walks, field puzzle, letterbox hybrid, and a nice multi to complete for the day.
As usual it wouldn't be a Barnzy and Cravo caching day without me stuffing up the co ords for a multi or puzzle (this time a multi) which had us looking some 50m from GZ!! And the odd piece of poor navigation (turn left, and then point backwards to the turn we "missed"!!
Thanks to all of the COs

Headed out with Barnzy12 today for another run around the suburbs to clear the map.
As usual I was driver and Steve was navigator, in true form Steve loading coords wrong on the multi caches and gave minimal warning on where and when to turn.
On the plus side Steve had moved back to the IPhone club after a giving Samsung a go. Made things a little easier despite now only having cachley not the usual app anymore.
All the caches were found in good condition and in the obvious place. TFTH TFTC.

Great location for a walk.

Dropped off a TB to be moved on.

Up in the Waikiki area as transport for a family member's morning long appointment so took the opportunity to take a walk in the Rockingham Lakes Regional Park and grab a few caches before the main heat of the day.
Given the area I was please to not find 1 nano or micro today, all caches were of reasonable size and well stocked with goodies for good "Kid caching"
This one took way too long to find. Will blame it on the GPS as no one else was there to take the blame
Signed the log and left one of our new tagz.
Thanks for the cache kylestell [^] - we made the find and the cache was in good order and the log dry .
This was cache # 5 of 8 and 0 today giving us a total cache count of 2931.

First find for a different day of caching in the south. Took the train from the north and passed the border without any issues and alighted at Warnbro. I had some major battery issues which meant I had to rely on my phone, but m4yb had made this find while I was trying to sort out my stuff.
Didn't like this grass and especially with this warmth today so we made a quick decision to try the south side of the main road and come back in winter.
Thanks for the cache and smily kylestell.

Trying out a new caching area today! So megawat60 and I walked to the bus, caught the bus to the train, the train to Perth, then the train to Warnbro.
We decided to start with the Northern side of Safety bay Road, but had to walk alongside the fence till we found the opening.
Here megawat60 had Garmin and battery issues so I went ahead and he caught up with me as I made the find. Thanks for the nicely stocked cache, kylestell!

This was a great cache to start off with, nice quick find , soft grass and shade to check out the goodies and sign the log. Kiddies were excited to see so many great treasure swaps, even master 19 month old picked out a pretty beaded necklace he wore proudly the rest of the way... Thanks Kylestell...
