The Big Foot series rocks. You guys are awesome xxx Cache in great condition
I had just found a cache a short distance away and to this cache I came next. The walk was indeed across low undergrowth - almost mown grass really, as long as one avoids the arum lilies.
The cache was found quickly, and surprise, surprise, I was on the correct side for a change. While the cache was found quickly it took a while to find the log. The log was a bit bigger than I expected though.
Then I started my way out. I passed evidence of unintelligent hoons. Then I was back on the main track. I also came across someone else in the forest, another first. This person was riding, which looks like a cool idea, until I recalled the softness and depth of the sand.

Hi there Moneybox.
We found your cache **"Bigfoot's Medicine Chest"** today. (This makes our find count 23595).
Following through on our passion of walking around parks, lakes and along walking tracks we decided to attempt some caches in and around the Tuart Forest National Park today. We thoroughly enjoyed our walk and the scenery. We found 8 caches today & DNF'd 0. (We would have ventured further to log more caches, but a couple of phone calls had us returning to Bunbury earlier than anticipated).
Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends. Thanks also for placing a large cache container here. It made us feel really glad to find a large, kid friendly cache (with swaps) here.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thank you Moneybox for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

Struep and me had some time and were near this area, so we decided to discover Tuart Forest for a bit. We were so happy to do so, as the caches turned out to be quite beautiful!!
Luckily we found the right medicine to treat the cache to smile
Thanks for this series!

TFTH TFTC! Day one of a huge caching trip with Barnzy12 to Bunbury for the weekend, an area we haven't ventured to for far too long with so many green dots on the map just waiting to be found.
We started off by grabbing all of the newly published ooh yeh heading south caches which hopefully one day can make their way all the way to Bunbury, and luckily they were positioned where they were with the newly installed fixed point to point camera nearby which may have nabbed us otherwise.
We got to Bunbury after grabbing a nearby archived team red roo cache and went to complete the skippy in the bush series which was a lovely walk around some suburban bushland with a great variety of plants and vegetation for us to see. All containers bar the disabled one found without issue. I might have to ask you where you get your magnets for the mint tins as they are highly effective baffle!!
We then grabbed a bunch of park and grabs around town which were pretty stock standard.
We then drove down to the Ludlow Forrest to complete the Bigfoot series of caches and some others in the bush. It was a lovely drive around on the 4x4, which handled the bush nicely even with a few obstacles. The highlight of the day was some ripper money box hides including big foots ATM, which lived up to the normal team money box standard
We closed out the first day with some park and grabs around town at dusk and into the evening. Thanks to the local COs for their caches so far..

Picking the right container was lucky however trying to get to the actual cache to begin with was a different story.
Great day out with Edsautos finding some bigfoots hidden treasures in the tuart forrest.
TFTC Moneybox!!

Medicine was about what I needed. My feet were sore but I was still keen to round up the caches on the way back to the car. Easy find and took longer to find the log. TFTC
Half riding the bike, half pushing the bike through the sand, I progressed in me quest to find BigFoot
I soon found his medicine chest.
Hang on !! These are not real medicines !!
They are vitamin supplements and muscle building proteins [:o]
Now I really do not want to meet BigFoot
I signed the logbook and put the pills back

We ventured into Bigfoot's territory to see if we could get a glimpse of the elusive legend. Hopefully he's not sick! TFTC cheers
Inspired by the previous day's magical walk through the Ludlow Forest, I returned to discover more of the interesting caches in the area. I saw packs of kangaroos out today, some of them were only a few metres away before I even noticed them. Such a variety of things to discover out here. I had a bit of luck here, by finding the log in the first container! Great concept. TFTC Moneybox

A rabbit was sharing the same hide as the cache, frightened the life out of me when it ran out and into my leg.

How cool! Apologies, my boy took a med bottle because he really wants to meet Big Foot!!! O_o
We left a big treasure tho that otherwise didn't fit in. I wonder what Big Foot will say to this?!

Thanks for the hide Moneybox. another clever use of containers. Getting out and enjoying the sunshine.
A very special place. Roos everywhere and lillies in bloom. Drooped off two travel bugs from New York.

Decided to do another trip down south with the geohubby to pick up some more caches. We didnt pick the best day to go as from the moment we left till we got home it didnt stop raining . We found all the caches but we didnt do as many as planned as we were soaking wet and decided to call it a day at 1.30pm. Most caches were found quickly and some were very creative. Well bigfoot wont get sick with all that medicine lol..A fav point here TFTC Moneybox
Upon opening the cache container I was somewhat reminded of my bedside table at home. A quick rummage through and we were strideing away happily with another smiley in the bag.
Thanks for the cache Moneybox.
