Out and about again, I was really feeling like heading out, not wanting to fight peak hour traffic, so waited a little bit, then caches until it was time to pick up kids. A variety of hides between Canning Vale and Canning River. Walked this one, probably should have ridden the bike.This cache is find number - 16988.Thanks to Paskersfind for the caches I have found.
Not sure what took so long last time, I swear I looked there. Whatever lid was difficult to take off but got there in the end. Thanks for the series
Cache container was filled with water. I replaced it upside down to let it drain and prevent ingress of rain. May benefit from a new berocca lid.
Excellent coordinates here! The cache lid is cracking as mentioned by the previous finder. I had to use a TOTT to pop the cache open. Felt like I was opening a bottle of champagne I closed the lid in a slight angle so it is easier for the next finder to open it. I tipped out the water in the cache and dried the log as much as possible. Log is wet but signable. Fav point here for the series. TFTC
Teamed up with the Cockburn Crew to clean up the hills near Hovea and Mundaring today, with the public holiday.
While I am yet again unable to find one of the last remaining caches, I was able to figure out the coordinates to make the find here. I didn’t really need the extra 1km return walk from the last cache after our caching today… but it is what it is. Cache lid is cracking and I would suspect that after the next finder opens it the cache will be unable to be opened. The CO may need to replace the lid. Thanks for the series. Cheers Paskersfind!

After not finding and F= clue in any of the caches I went looking for this final in the series. As F= is the last number in the coordinates it wont make a huge difference to the search area anyway.
As I looked around it became obvious where the cache probably was. A quick eyeball and an easy retrieval. A well placed cache and good simple option for this type of cache. Sometimes the simple ideas work so well.
Thanks for the nice series.

Find 15 of 23 with one DNF on a pleasant but humid bike ride around PF/Fratra/LS country.
No problems completing the series here and found a nicely hidden cache.

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!
Spot finally came up with the goods with this one. Even though we didn't get the "F", we luckily didn't really need it and this fun wee hide was soon in hand. All is perfect here Paskersfind. Thanks for the fun walk and all of your work setting these up and their maintenance.
I was out and about on an early morning bike ride and stopped to pick up a few caches, this one was found quickly! I had the final coords on this one for some time now and today was the day to grab it. Fave point for the series!

Out with geo-bud hhheddy claiming smiles within cycling distance of home.
Thank you Paskersfind

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 eighth find for the day out of seventeen plus another three that got away. We missed finding the second cache in the series but it wasn't too hard to work out where the final was located from the information we had collected. Thanks Paskersfind for the cache.
Having returned with our missing clue this sneaky find was soon in hand. TFTC have a fave for the series.
Found all the others in the series some time ago and came back this morning to find the final. It was a quick find of what could have been a tricky and time consuming search. Awarding a fav point for this and the series. Thanks for all these caches Paskersfind.
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.
Woohoo! The final! I had to search for quite a while here, and read through the previous logs, which were a slight help, in at least that it was a tricky hide. After looking at a few obvious spots and finding them empty I was very very pleased to find the tricky little cache.

Bit of a mission to complete this series. 1st attempt was aborted due to weather without realising it was a series requiring the collection of clues.
2nd attempt ran out of time due to backtracking to collect said clues.
3rd time lucky to collect the well hidden final and hopefully the bonus.
Enjoyed every attempt. TFTC Paskersfind.

We have beem collecting the info required for this cache over the last week or so while out walking. A quick find at GZ of a very clever cache. A great series that helped us get our 30 for a few days. A fave heading your way.
TFTC Paskersfind this is find # 1464 for us

TFTC On a day out again with barnzy12.
The weather was great and only turned once the car was packed and we headed for home.
Ended up with around 30 finds for the day all were in good condition and replaced as found. Some great camo on the PF hides and awarded some fav points that were truly deserved.

TFTC! Spent a lovely Saturday out caching with Cravo10 with a couple of things to knock off the "todo" list which has been quite well populated for some time now.
We started the day in Belmont and grabbed the nearby cache "it's on Ron Courtney island" by bear left which has been in my sights since I first started caching four years ago, was great to finally knock that cache off, and a ripper spot it is too.
We then headed down to Shelley to compete he kayak on canning series, which had been high on the priority list as it is quite close to home and some of our closest I found traditional caches. Was also highly recommended after having completed the upper swan kayak series.
Kayak caches were all found in good order and condition except for DNFs at 1 and 10, one was too good for us (10) and 1 seems to be missing as I saw the spoiler pic in another cachers log and it wasn't there. Awesome series, which also allowed us to pickup the z-a puzzle challenge cache by Jinta if only we qualified!!
The water levels were still quite low in the canning and we bottomed out in certain spots, with some seriously thick and smelly mud to get through! Really enjoyed the warm shower when I got home!!
We then moved our attention towards some of the newer paskerfind caches, including a few puzzles we had finally solved. Some great camo caches in the series and a good effort by the CO to keep the caches interesting.
Thanks to the COs for a great day out and can't wait to be back out soon.

Finishing off PF Roe Hwy Hunt today, hoping the knees and legs last the round trip. After gathering the remaining information I did the calculation to find the final. Most enjoyable series and a favourite point from us.
Thanks Paskersfind for the cache.

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.
Managed to collect all the required letters (thanks for the rpt) - and made it to GZ. Looked everywhere, but using the phone never got a distance that was less than 4 metres. Looked and felt around for about 10 minutes. Reading past logs I know it was a tricky one.
No luck for me today, will return soon with the GPSr for another go.

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

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 a well earned favorite point for this series.
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. Like others before us, our geo-hubby's had trouble locating this cache but eventually were rewarded with the ripper find. Thanks Paskersfind
It took us a while to locate this cache.....the sun wasn't in an overly helpful position but that's no excuse for twice I missed seeing the hide when I was actually looking directly at it; it just blended in well. Thanks for this end to the series.
I was in the area again today and so I decided to finish of the series today. With three caches to go, I started at the trail in the middle. After about a 1k walk, I came to the first cache. Soon after, I came to this cache. I had worked out the coordinates a few weeks ago when I did the previous caches. I started searching, after about 10 minutes of searching in the dark, I found the sneaky cache. Very cool.
Paskersfind, I found your cache ‘PF Roe Highway Hunt Final’ today. It was the third find of four finds (all yours) with zero DNF’s and brings my total count to 541. 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 and cache.'
A fav point for the series.

Nabbed all the other caches and got the coords for the final! I admit I had to look twice before I spotted it Nice series of caches that I did on my board, perfect conditions for it! On the way back to the car I ran into cacher Granett who was not at all suss looking for one of the series by the side of the path and I called out to his surprise "hey! no geocaching allowed here!" hahahaha! Love running into cachers on the trail!
Also you are right about the number of cyclists, wow there were a lot! I had to double check each time I was about to retrieve or replace a cache if any were speeding up to me!
Thanks for the awesome series PF!

Came back this arvo to see if I could finish off the RHH series.
This one was a bit tricky and took me a few minutes to locate. Checked a few spots and eventually went back to where I started for a more determined look where I found the cleverly hidden container.
Awarding a favourite here for this one and the series as a whole, well done.
Paskersfind I found your cache at 4:34pm, this was the 2nd of 3 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 3147. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Whilst Jase was running some errands around town with Master 4, I chose to go for a walk instead & find these new caches... After gathering the clues along the way, the GPS again led me straight to the final! I quickly discovered this sneaky hide & nearly had to have a second look Great idea!
TFTC and the series Paskersfind [^] I enjoyed walking along here today, but wish I had of brought my bike instead!
