I replaced the container today. Sadly, it is no longer the appropriate container as per the title, just a mint tin as I could not get another Heffalump. Please replace natural cammo to ensure the longevity of the cache. Thanks!

Hi there m4yb.

We found your cache **"HEFFALUMP"** at 11:21:00 AM today. This cache makes our find count 14760.

We usually start the day off by nominating a cache some distance away from our camp site and then take a route that is mostly determined by the next closest cache according to our GPS. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around the area & ended up finding quite a variety of container types, and sizes hidden along our route.

We found 6 caches today & DNF'd 0. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Smile We decided to head to this neck of the woods to grab some of the caches in this area and do some exploring. It was fun cruising around this area and we had a blast. TFTC Smile.

m4yb - jinta29 found your cache HEFFALUMP on 14/08/2016, 2:13 PM. This is my find #5593 and find #10 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Nice park! It took me a little while to find the cache and I was just about to give up and go home tonight when I finally spotted it. Thank you for the hide m4yb.

Originally found under family caching name clan - wallace now branching out under own caching name

In view of the previous log we came, armed with a new log & baggie, supplied by the CO & this one is now in full working order again. TFTC
 
14-Jul-16
With my School holiday special NOR visa granted I caught a lift up with Clan-Wallace today. Although the wind was turned up this morning we had a great day finding Trads, Puzzles and Multis with only 1 DNF for the day. After a break from caching and a lovely lunch from the CO it was only fitting we should start our afternoon hunt with a cache of hers. Mrs Clan-Wallace made a quick find here and revealed a piece of papermache and no log. Luckily for us though the CO had not only supplied lunch but a new log just incase. So replaced the paper pulp with a new log and bag. Before continuing on our merry way. TFTC and your hospitality M4yb.

I was in the area after a multi and this one was on the way back and I had a bit of time to spare before I had to start work so I stopped off to have a look. I initially went to the wrong object but after coming up empty I widened the search a little and after disturbing a spiders web I made the find.
TFTC m4yb.

Everyone loves a heffalump don't they so I just had to come for a look at this one today Smile Parked up in Deanmore Rd and took a short walk round to GZ. Could see a few rough paths heading in the right direction through the bush but walked round a little further until I saw an approach I was comfortable with. At GZ I was momentarily stumped but all I really needed to do was search a bit more thoroughly! Soon the nicely hidden container was spotted...as was the lovely heffalump! Smile All quiet here today so everything went to plan and I was soon on my way again Smile TFTC

A lovely little park, which was well used by parents, kids and dog walkers in the time I was here. A quick and easy find of the little cache as well, and I made sure to recover it as well as it was when I arrived.

Thanks for the hide m4yb!

No luck with this. Think someone may have reburied it too deeply? Thanks.
 
30-Aug-15
Replaced the cache today, apologies to the people who DNF'd it. Yes it had gone missing, please note it was never buried so no need to go digging!

Needed to fill in my caching calendar today but this one didn't help. Lots of evidence of previous searching around GZ, but after I disturbed an angry ants nest I figured I'd give this one a miss today. Thanks anyway.

Some handy hints among the comments made for a quick find in the darkness early this morning. Meanwhile, 3 cars passed nearby going the wrong direction through the one way section in the space of 5 minutes. Crazy. TFTC

Found while walking the geoK9, though without any assistance from K9. Nice place to walk on a cool morning. TFTC

Find 1 of 13 on a bike ride from Trigg to Nedlands and back with one pesky DNF. It turned out to be Ladies Day with the entertainment provided by m4yb, Hiddo, .K.B. and Tina21!

We needed this one for its "hidden date" as we are close to filling our calendar. I nearly gave up after circling both likely hosts a few times, but because of it's importance I stuck at it and eventually dug a little deeper - I felt a bit like an archaeologist uncovering some sacred object - and unearthed the cache. I have put some more natural cover over it rather than just burying it.

TFTC m4yb!

headed out this morning with Skippy 46 to find some caches north of the river. We had a bit of a slow start with some DNFS but overall we had a good day.
This was another DNF for us...We searched for a while but couldnt find anything, we did wonder if the cache could be missing. We will be back another day for a look TFTH m4yb
 
01-Feb-15
Out for a day of caching with ooh yeh and unfortunately this was a DNF for us today. Sad
We thought we looked in all the right places but may have missed it with our thoughts on those slithery creatures.
We will be back again for another look when up here next time.

TFTH anyway m4yb
