Had a pretty good search but lots of leaf litter and previous logs ment I didn't want to search to deep.
 
26-Oct-24
Decided to avoid as too snakey Smile thanks anyway

About to undertake a maintenance run through canning vale and disabling a few caches while caches are revamped.
 
07-Jun-23
Replaced today.
 
05-Jun-23
G’day Paskersfind! I am recommending a maintenance checkup at this cache.

 
25-Apr-23
Was unable to locate this one on a pretty unsuccessful day out today.
TFTC
 
14-Apr-23
No luck for me. But maybe my fear of a potential reptile has dampened my search. Will visit another day.
 
10-Apr-23
searched everywhere we could think of. No luck today.
 
02-Jan-23
G’day Paskersfind, unfortunately I wasn’t able to find your cache today (Monday 2/1/2023). Cheers for the hunt anyway!

Another DNF here. I remember last time being spooked by a reptile here. This time I scared the reptile off on approach… but was not able to locate the cache. What a pain in the neck.
 
23-Apr-22
Out riding the Roe Highway with MitchDem, 6th find for this afternoon, nice and easy to find but no contents, no lid and must be sun damaged, TFTC
 
17-Oct-21
Out and about on the scooters today.
After reading past logs we were hesitant but ready for the challenge. Nice quick find. TFTC
 
07-Oct-21
I was about to make the grab when I saw a pair of reptilian eyes staring at my hand.
Safely used a stick to extract the cache
 
18-Sep-21
There was something in the bushes, I spared no time being near gz, TFTC!
 
16-Aug-21
Great hide tftc
 
13-Mar-21
Sneaky hide this one. Once I found a stick to extract the cache, all was good. Nice view of the golfers here. Log signed and put back TFTC
 
07-Nov-20
Was that a snake peering out at me? No it was a bobtail lizard. Once I was sure it had moved I stuck my hand in to grab the cache. Left it in an easier spot for the next finder.
 
01-Jun-19
Nice find close to the golf course, had to be gentle retrieving it TFTC
 
22-May-19
Difficult to retrieve, have made some adjustments to hide for easier retrieval.
 
22-Apr-19
With our bicycles we had a beautiful day around Perth.
Here we can find the Cache after a short search.
Thank you and greetings from Germany send Moorhelmi
 
23-Mar-19
A quick find and got the clue too. This one is the right one so all good. Nice view of the golf Course.
 
21-Mar-19
Find 12 of 23 with one DNF on a pleasant but humid bike ride around PF/Fratra/LS country.

Girded our loins and went in for this one despite the recent logs. The big lizard is still very much present and keen to act as cache guardian. We presented sticks to it as offerings and it chomped down on them. Mr O stuck a hand in to its lair and it went a little crazy. Eventually with some team work we got the cache in position to extract while the lizard watched on in disgust. We put it back in an easier spot to retrieve - until the lizard drags it back as its plaything.

Don't like the sound of a big lizard but will not venture there until winter. Will consider relocating to a less formidable location. In the mean time, the required code is E = 0
 
27-Dec-18
No luck here either. Just about crapped myself as I thought there was a snake in the log. Went back for a second look and realised it was a false alarm, just a massive lizard.
 
07-Nov-18
Too many golfers and geokid was scared of a giant lizard so had to move on will come back on my own next time
 
18-Aug-18
I thought cyclists were silent. Those golf buggies are even quieter. One came out of nowhere but luckily continued on past and didn't spot me. TFTC
 
13-Aug-18
On Nan duty today so I had to look for somewhere that had a path to push the pram, Happy to say that all the caches were found and most of the way yeatesy89 ( the youngest member) slept the whole time. tftc and the enjoyable walk. I even saw a Bandicoot!
 
24-Jul-18
All good here. Cache and log in good condition tftc

First Time in Australia.
Gemeinsam mit bomi58 ein paar Dosen dieser Gegend eingesammelt. Dieser Cache konnte sich nicht lange vor uns verstecken. TFTC
 
27-Jun-18
Zusammen mit Rio2013 war ich in Australien for Sightseeing und zum Cachen. Dabei haben wir auch hier gesucht und gefunden.

This one was mia so have replaced it. All now well.
 
16-Mar-18
Eventually found in the obvious spot but "Spot" had already had a "good" look with no luck. "Patch" continued her good run and made the find and off we go to find some more. All good here, thanks Paskersfind.
 
26-Aug-17
Out with geo-bud hhheddy claiming smiles within cycling distance of home.
Thank you Paskersfind
 
26-Aug-17
Headed out for the afternoon on our bikes with Lazarus_68. We found most of the caches we attempted today, a few managed to slip by and evaded our grasp. This was the fifth find for the day out of seventeen plus another three that got away. Collected the required information to find the final. Thanks Paskersfind for the cache.

Nice quick find. There were a congregation of white ants nearby, but they were no problem - I had fortunately applied my Aunt's anti-ant before setting out Smile TFTC.
 
22-Apr-17
Got distracted and went past this by hundred meters and had to double back. Easy grab once there. Tftc
 
10-Apr-17
A nice quick find here Smile

Smile I am on a bit of a caching mission this month and am hoping to rack up some large numbers Big Grin. A trip to power trail heaven, Adelaide, later this month should help with my plans Wink. I decided to head to this area after work today and grab the smileys on offer, a big thanks to Paskersfind for placing this container out here for us to find [^].

Paskersfind - jinta29 found your cache PF Roe Highway Hunt 5 on 10/4/17, 4:23 pm. This is my find #6464 and find #2 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for bringing us to this location and adding to the wonderful spirit of this game!

Sorry for late logging
Thanks for cache
 
26-Dec-16
I was keen to tackle the PF Roe Highway Hunt series today. I have ridden my bike along here many times, but I don't get the chance to cache while I do it. I was wishing I had my bike with me today though.

I didn't read the description for the parking, so I searched for appropriate parking by driving down all the cul-de-sacs, but none of them had access to the path, so in the end I parked on Endgate Court, and took a small shortcut through the bush to pop out right near this cache.

I had a plan to move the car after finding the first 3, but after finding them I decided to just keep walking, and in the end I found all the caches including the bonus in 50 minutes, walking the entire way.

I was enjoying the walk along the path, and was happy to make another quick find here. I noted the code I needed for the final.

Thanks for the cache Paskersfind!

These things are nearly irresistible for a CO (if there's no available grass tree). TFTC Paskersfind.

Nice cycle around these parts with KB

Out and about ticking a few more of the Roe Highway series off. Another nice hide.

TFTC Paskersfind this is find # 1457 for us
 
05-Sep-16
Found in the company of Barnzy12 TFTC TFTH
 
05-Sep-16
TFTC! Was out and about with Cravo10, ItsKate and the other half of BarnZy12 getting some new walkie talkies from JBs after one went for a drink the other day whilst completing the Wooroloo Brook Trail caches when a bunch of caches dropped down. Knowing we were in a pretty hotly contested area we had to be quick but having lost forty minutes having not noticed the notifications for some time we were quickly headed to GZ to grab these two new Grannett caches, both were quick finds and we were surprised to be FTF on both.

We then decided to head up to complete some of the paskerfind roe highway hunt caches
In the fading light, collected four and recorded the clues to grab the rest when we come back to the area next. Thanks.
 
06-Aug-16
Finishing off PF Roe Hwy Hunt today, hoping the knees and legs last the round trip. This was the first, all good here.

Thanks Paskersfind for the cache.
 
02-Aug-16
Made the effort to try this series off caches using my fairly new bike to cache for the first time.

Was a really enjoyable ride. Found most, but DNF'd No 1 and the Final. Managed to mostly avoid the cyclist and the golfers. Will be back to grab the ones i missed.

Paskersfind - SVKR_WA found your cache on 2 August 2016. This find brings our finds count to 1416.

We have signed the log and replaced the hide as found.

Thanks for bringing us to this place.
 
30-Jul-16
Perfect day to hop on the geo-bikes and hunt down a number of hides in the Canning Vale area.
We started with the Roe Hwy Hunt, quickly managed to find all the caches in the series, the final and the bonus as well. TFTH

 
19-Jul-16
Yet another quick find. Golfers nearby looking for a ball but none noticed what I was doing. This was the fifth of the seven. Thanks for the cache Parkersfind.
 
17-Jul-16
The best place we could find to acces this series was near to #3. From we split into two groups and walked in different directions. Thanks Paskersfind all caches were found.
 
17-Jul-16
We decided to chance the weather for a day out caching with iluvtrekking. Because the 90% likelihood of rain occurring that was predicated didn't eventuate, we ended up with a very successful caching day. We parked near access to #3 and Mrs iluvtrekking and I did 1, 2 & 3 while our other halves walked from #4 to the end of the series. Thanks Paskersfind
 
03-Jul-16
Our afternoon involved lots of talking and stopping at caches that either Hiddo or that both Hiddo and I hadn't already found. All traditional hides in this series were quick finds in likely locations with great accuracy in placement. This made for fun caching. Thank you Paskersfind.

Sat and watched some golfers whilst signing log. Out geocaching with the geowife Alikat! tftf

Today was the day to nab this series of caches along Roe Hwy! TFTC!
 
19-May-16
Whilst Jase was running some errands around town with Master 4, I chose to go for a walk instead & find these new caches... On approach to GZ I was disappointed to find a group of golfing muggles teeing off Sad It seemed like an eternity, but eventually they moved on & I could hunt for the cache which was found after a brief search Smile

Made an assault on these new Roe Hwy hides today, parked up in the middle and set off to grab as many as I could in the short time I had. Ended up getting the first six and I'll come back to finish the rest off soon I'm sure.

I think I was quite lucky to find this well hidden cache after only a short search.

Paskersfind I found your cache at 5:00pm, this was the 5th of 6 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 3143. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

SLTFTC

I'm looking forward to meeting other geocachers in Pinjarra at the 'WA GOES BIG IN 2016' event on the 4th - 5th June. Registrations now open.

I was in the area today and decided to try tackle this cache. The sun had just set, so knew that I would not be able to find the whole series. All caches were found easily and I enjoyed a nice walk along the pathway. There were hardly any muggles about as I made the grabs.
Paskersfind, I found your cache ‘PF Roe Highway Hunt 5’ today. It was the fifth find of six finds with zero DNF’s and brings my total count to 516. The cache was found in a good condition so I signed the log book and replaced it as I found it. Thanks for the hide.
 
16-May-16
Quick find. TFTC.

The Better Half and I took Gwawr for a walk along the path finding all these new caches.

Cache found without problems.

Log signed and cache returned as found.

Thanks Paskersfind for the cache.

*FTF* at 11.10am With Skippy 46
We had just got a FTF in melville and was about to leave when i checked my phone and saw this series had just been published. A quick change of plan of our caching day and i quickly loaded the first one on the GPs and we made our way to the roe highway. I parked near the beginning of the path and we walked to all of the caches. We got FTF on 1,2.3 ,5,6, the final and the bonus cache. Somehow as we were rushing we didnt realize there was a number 7 and we missed doing that one. Loved the variety of caches and the final took us ages to find lol..An enjoyable series so i will give a favourite point to each cache TFTC Paskersfind
 
15-May-16
*FTF* with ooh yeh.
Turns out we ended up with 7 FTF's and totally missed #7. I blame myself for that as I was pretty much delirious and in so much pain that I overlooked it.
It was an easy little series with a variety of different containers used.
The final proved to be a bit tricky which had us convinced that it had been muggled but it wasn't
