A reasonably warm day out on the limestone tracks. Needed a few PAFs along the way. Thanks for the adventure.
Container needs changing , hole in top letting water in , log unusable as water has got into bag.
Hi there tel971. We went out with Liem (Lucky1268) today and while out we found this cache at about 11.29 am after a short search - the container and log are in good condition. TN, LN, SL. Thanks to tel971 for this cache - our find 9425 and the 4th of 17 finds for the day.
FieldNotes: Log was damp but useable.

Found it in a sprinkler (almost completely berried) the area looks to have been cleared not sure if this needs re hiding or was the intended spot
Was out this way for work and managed a couple of quick finds where we could, TFTC tel971
Found but not in very good condition. Needs new container. Sorry I didn’t have one.
Doing some parking and grabbing in the "forrest" today. Taking turns while the baby sleeps in the car.
Mum found this one. Sort of. The container has crumbled away and the log book was loose. We didn't have a big enough replacement container, so put as many pieces together as we could and a new zip lock for the log.

Headed over this way for a bit of light 4WD fun around the pines plantation, and of course pick up the caches here too on the way Some areas are bare and logged, others in the process of being logged and some still gloriously untouched All quiet here on a Saturday arvo too, didn't see a single other person even though it's a lovely warm spring day. On arrival I was faced with another very open (but deserted) area... and seemingly nowhere to hide a cache. Coords seemed to be good though so headed over and after a couple of red herrings spotted the right item to move No problems here - TFTC
As I came to GZ, the whole area had been graded or dozed for block clearings? Found it nearby exact spot. The cache was full of sand but logbook is good. And just buried the cache with lime rock on for next caches. TFTH
Staying in Yanchep before heading to WAGB, so today megawat60 and I are exploring a bit further afield on the other side of Indian Ocean Road.
Looked for a while then spotted something that made sense (but not a mint tin!) TFTC!

And the last rocky bites the dust. thanks for bringing me out here, enjoyed finding the caches and seeing a new area I haven't been to before. tftc sl tnln
Headed to the event at Yanchep, we stopped to find a few caches on the way... This was the next find whilst travelling through the area
For such an open area I had a lot of trouble finding this one... My GPS was having a bit of a moment & all over the place! Eventually found it once turning it off & on again... Thanks tel971 [^]

Headed up to Yanchep for an event but decided to leave super early and team up with Barnzy12 and cravo10 to find a pile of caches on the way and clean up some more in the Yanchep area. We managed to find all that we were looking for and also nab 5 FTFS. Thanks to all the CO,S for placing these caches
This area has been logged and there is nothing left!
Unfortunately tel971 I couldn’t find your cache Rocky III today. Hopefully I’ll have better luck next time I’m here.

A nice quick find here today whisltniut and about on a winters day of caching TFTC
TFTH tel971, Another sneaky hide but so pleased to have found another cache in this series. LS and replaced as found.
Day Two of our overnight trip up north with Fratra. We have decided to leave the beautiful coastline behind us & travel home by the inland route.Simon the Scorpion was not at home....but we played it safe and sent the men to get this one anyway. TFTC
After spending a great day yesterday caching and a lovely evening of catching up with our caching friends pommieparkin2 we hit the road and cached our way back to the big smoke.
Nice quick find.
TFTC tel971 this is find # 2210 for us.

My non-geocaching hubby kindly agreed to accompany me this morning to an area that I hadn't been to before. It took me quite a while to find this cache and I had to look a few metres away from my GZ. Thank you for the hide tel971.
TFTC out on a Thursday's caching adventure with Barnzy12. Got to have a later start than usual today that played in well as we were travelling north, last time B12 made the rookie move to head north during peak hour!
Today was going to be a little special as we were going to find enough caches to get barnzy12 to 7000 cache finds.
We found a few small series of caches on our trip today and collect a few puzzle finals also. Only a handful of DNFs today made for a successful trip, the highlight for me was the little cave a got to explore and the instant cool feeling when you enter TFTH

TFTC! Another Thursday caching adventure with Cravo10, this week to Joondalup and a little further, we had a small sample a week or so ago grabbing some park and grabs and quickly realised we hadn't been up this far north for some time and the number of green dogs had got a little out f hand on the map.
We completed a bunch of the tel971 caches in the gnangara pines, which was nice to be off the beaten track for a bit, only seeing one vehicle on the roads we travelled. All caches there were found quickly except one which appears to be awol.
We directed our attention to the lord of the rings and the hobbit series of caches, which was a very nice bushwalk, it was a bit of a pain trying to get some of the caches as they were in the middle of dense low and medium level vegetation which took its toll on the body! Understanding the COs reasoning as the geoarr piece is quite nice looking. We skipped a few which were just a bit too much for the day, amd had a couple of dnfs which appear to be awol.
Finished the day grabbing a bunch of park and grabs including the fruit or vegetable series which we started way back in 2013!! all around to get the numbers up to help me claim find number 7000. Thanks to the local COs for their hides.
Holidaying in Perth with tmann421. Slowly making our way North.
Another good find here. TFTC

As already mentioned cache is burnt signed the added paper photo of cache attached- it's pretty cool!!
Wow..! What happened? I set this cache in a lovely Pine forest and now it looks like a a dragon has been through it!
Anyway, thanks to everyone that have visited and left their mark so far. Its nice to know people will visit your caches when you set them.
I've replaced the Log Book with a new one and the cache is where it's meant to be. I'll keep an eye on this area and may move it in the future.
Thanks Again...

Thank you! Borrowed a 4WD and my nephews to travel on some unsealed roads, and do the Rocky Series in particular. This one didn't take too long, and the boys were impressed with the hide.
Find 6 of 15 on a 2WD adventure around Yanchep and the Pinjar Plantation.
Really enjoyed the afternoon out (minus the geokids). Pleasant temperatures and a totally new view of the plantation that we'd never seen before. All the caches are highly recommended! Along the way we saw a turbocharged snake crossing Old Yanchep Road, an extended family of emus running up Aqua Road for a km or two to get away from us, and 37 million flies.
52kg - my a$$. 2.8% body fat - possible but highly unlikely! Lucky to make a quick find here.

Took a drive along Old Yanchep Road to collect some caches. The road was better than I anticipated. Found in the first spot I looked. Tftc.
Didn't expect to have such a quick find for this one. But we left no stone unturned and there it was.
Found a few in this series this morning. Will be back to finish off the other ones.
Great Series so far. TFTC
