Time to go
 
02-Oct-21
Tried looking but very overgrown and dead leaves, not to mention the biting huge ants
 
02-Oct-21
Looks to be missing
 
29-Nov-20
Sad too hard for us I think
 
15-Nov-20
Very scrubby. Had a good look but no luck
 
01-Jun-20
Not a fan of the needle in a haystack search but respect the need to mix up the easy and the more challenging. Thanks.
 
13-Feb-20
Had to walking around the GZ, searching for the hide. Found it, TFTH
 
07-Dec-19
Got a nice bite from one of those huge ants. Neat camo
 
14-Nov-19
Came to hopefully turn the frown upside down which I managed to do. I had also planned to grab a couple of nearby solved caches, but I tripped over the geodog and are hobbling back to the car. A clever cammo so a fave point coming your way. tftc
 
29-Oct-19
We came back today to collect a few smileys and launch our vengeance on this DNF, what a relief to hear the words “I FOUND IT” this one has defeated us a few too many times..... a case of cache blindness maybe or a very clever camo, a favourite here TFTC
 
26-Oct-19
Headed out with redlipsandunicorns this morning to find some caches. It definately wasnt the best day of caching we have had but thats the way it goes sometimes.
This one took a it of searching with lots of laps around the tree but eventually the sneaky cache was found. TFTC GHFB
 
26-Oct-19
Out and about caching with Ooh Yeh this weekend. This cache took quite a while to find, just about to give up and then made the find. Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC
 
24-Oct-19
The 3 of us surrounded the tree & PP1 made a quick find. TFTC

Out and about with monkeymom2 and the geokids. Took a while to find. Great camo
 
09-Aug-19
Very nice piece of camo here. Love the method of attachment.
TFTC GHFB this is find # 7294 for us.
 
08-Aug-19
After a walk around Lake Adams to collect some caches for the Mystery at the Museum souvenirs with the Little Man we stopped off here for our last gem needed.
Man this took me forever. Fed the baby all the snacks I could offer to keep him quiet while I searched. I have now learnt that, no, you should not always follow the Geotrail.... Sometimes the path is just fine! Looked for ages in the wrong GZ and finally found in quite literally the last place I looked. Tftc
 
28-Jul-19
Had to pop up to Joondalup today so the perfect chance to kill two birds and grab a cache or two and my final Museum Mystery gem Smile This was one of the caches I stopped off at. Parked up by the nearest gate but had to kill a few minutes waiting for a couple of dog walkers to finish chatting and move on from GZ. Once the coast was clear I headed over for a search. Took a few minutes rummaging around before I spotted something a little out of place - and bingo there it was! Great camo here Smile TFTC
 
19-Jul-19
Out and about finding caches, late log reflecting to correct find date.
 
19-Jul-19
Out for a small run North of the River between the rain showers today, managed to make a good day of it despite losing a large amount of time due to the heavy rains.
 
26-Jun-19
took a while on this one, but jess12310 made the find, sneaky hide Smile tftc Smile

Host located, bison missing.
 
03-May-19
Found this scary guy and a lot of huge ants but not alot else, calling it a day on this one as im guessing it might be in the section of tree thats fallen on the ground. Would appreciate a CO check, thanks!
 
31-Jan-19
No luck for us here today after an extensive search
 
04-Dec-18

09-Jun-18
Thank you! Found a couple of metres from where my gps suggested was GZ. As usual, found in the last place I looked.
 
28-May-18
Got lucky here. Even when I checked it out I wasn't expecting it to be the cache. TFTC GHFB.
 
03-Apr-18
Ouch ouch ouch! The ants are relentless! But i found it at last. Must have tried here 4 times! TFTC love the camo and will give a fave point even though ill be scratching for hours.
 
22-Mar-18
It’s still here

Difficult to find. Almost gave up but hubby was persistent . Great camo tftc.
 
22-Feb-17
Found it
Haven't done any caching for quite a while so thought I would get back into it.
Started with this one as it was the closest to home unfound.
A couple of circuits of GZ and managed to uncover the camo hide.
TFTC
 
22-Jan-17
Found one of these types yesterday so wasn't too bad a hunt. Tricky to find if your not expecting the unexpected. TFTC
 
18-Dec-16
This one is proving to be my nemesis.
 
03-Sep-16
Great camouflage and clever placement, a favorite! After looking around for a good 15 minutes and checking each object in proximity of GZ multiple times, I finally spotted something that I had not noticed before, and bingo... just as I was about to give up. Thank you for a great cache GHFB.
 
18-Aug-16
Looked high and low... but being a midnight run.... bit too dark. Nice park though on a lovely clear night. Could not find a tin or string if it is hanging. We will try again in the sunshine
 
28-Jul-16
4th attempt looking for it and can't get a good accuracy. When I get a proper unit I will a tempt again.
 
21-Jul-16
Thanks to the previous finder for securing the bison. It looks like a case of cache rage has occurred and someone has unknowingly separated the bison from it's host in a throwing off session. All fixed up.
 
18-Jul-16
Found Geo on the ground, the fishing line had broken so placed on a stump and in the location it was found and may need to re-hang if it was hanging? TFTF.
 
18-Jul-16
The cache doesn't hang, I need to check if the host is still there.
 
07-Jul-16
Twice attemps in same day and fall over and hurt myself so give up.... DNF for me... Twisted [:(!] Twisted
 
14-May-16
After DNFing this a month ago I returned for a quick find this time around. Searched in a spot I hadn't last time and bingo, there it was. Although didn't realise it was the cache until closer inspection. Glad it wasn't covered in ants like just about everything else! TFTC
 
03-Apr-16
Nope no idea. My GZ was just south of the grass tree. Checked many a log, rock and tree but found only angry ants ... they're everywhere!
 
26-Jan-16
Made a quick find here with Minergal, I really enjoy these caches! TFTC
 
26-Jan-16
Nice camo cache. Had us looking for a while but happy to say we found this sneaky cache. Found with the Fabulous Panda. TFTC Smile
 
30-Dec-15
Finally got it on the third try, good hide!
 
29-Nov-15
No idea
 
23-Nov-15
After a short search this came into my vision. Great Camo. TFTC.
 
23-Sep-15
Nice hide it took me three visits and a few hints TFTC
 
23-Sep-15
Found with purple pirate tricky
 
21-Sep-15
Firstly, I must award this cache with a fav pnt from myself....because I had so many attempts without luck, and I had found the cache twice before without knowing it. This time was a walk and find in 30 secs.

Excellent Mr GHFB, I like your style.
 
19-Sep-15
We approached with some trepidation after reading the last few logs, but the cache was located in a reasonable length of time. A nice hide, thank you.
 
24-Aug-15
Still here.
 
23-Aug-15
Nope
 
30-Jul-15
Touché Monsieur Blackrat touché. I checked this cache only 2 days ago, it had suffered some cache creep but I put it back in its correct spot.
 
29-Jul-15
Out on a quick after work hunt with "Purple Pirate 57" and "Pirate Matey".

Found the cache guardians but alas no cache. We looked high, and extra high and very low.
Logging a DNF today just in case something has gone astray...Yes I read Facebook too Mr GHFB.

Will return.

06-Jul-15
Nice quick find while walking my son's dog. Tftc.
 
03-Jul-15
Found this one after attempting it before. Took the geomum out. Tftf
 
06-Jun-15
I found it. I left my mark. I replaced it and I left. TFTC. . This is a good hide. It took me a while. . . Beware the cache guardians, within minutes they were all over my legs. GHFB has trained them well.
 
04-Jun-15
Yay FTF@10:10! Called in here after battling a headwind all the way from Cottesloe up and was rewarded with a quick find and blank log. This nice hide should be almost muggle proof. Thanks for the cache GHFB!
